Board Members and staff discussed or explained rationale for recommendations
on certain designated parcels.
President Rustigian invited persons in the audience to address the Board.
Mr. John O'Brien made an oral protest on the assignment of 9 units of assess-
ment to the Evangel Temple, Parcel No. 50-21-64. Mr. O'Brien indicated the pro-
posed assessment of 9 units would present a financial hardship upon the limited
congregation of the church. Furthermore, because of lack of timely notice by the
City of Martinez, it had not been possible to appear before the City of Martinez
Planning Commission to have the parcel rezoned from R-3 to R-1-6.
Mr. J. W. Sandlin, Pastor, Evangel Temple, made an oral protest on the
assignment of 9 units of assessment to Parcel No. 50-21-64.' Mr. Sandlin cited
financial hardship and noted that since 1945, this parcel has been used solely
on behalf of the church. '
Board Members, staff, Mr. Jerry Laster, Wilson, Jones, Morton and Lynch,
Special Counsel for the District, discussed and exchanged comments with Mr.
Sandlin and Mr. O'Brien on the protest rationale. After comments by Mr. Laster
regarding uniformity of method of assessment for church property and by Member
Gibbs that assessment is predicated upon benefit to the land and not to improve- .
ments upon the land, it was moved by Member Boneystee1e, seconded by Member Gibbs,
that the number of units of assessment for Parcel No. 50-21-64, be reduced from
11 to 2. Motion was predicated on recognition that timely notice had not been
provided by the City of Martinez to permit application for rezoning from R-3 to
R-1-6 for Parcel No. 50-21-64 prior to the public hearing on March 15, 1973,
and assurance that such application to rezone the property will be actively
pursued. Carried by the following vote:

STUDY SESSION ON GARBAGE RATE INCREASE FOR DIABLO DISPOSAL SERVICE
Board Members and staff with participation by Mr. Richard Spear, attorney
representing Diablo Disposal Service, and Mr. Michael Ageno, accountant for
Diablo Disposal Service, conducted a study session on garbage rate increases
and type of garbage service to be authorized for customers served by Diablo
Disposal Service. Mr. Ageno and Mr. Spear stated that management of Diablo
Disposal Service was prepared to increase its service for residential customers
to include weekly pickup of two cans of garden trimmings at the curb and three
major trash pickups per year. Mr. Ageno suggested that garden trimming service
was desired by the majority of Diablo Disposal's residential customers and, with
its authorization, residents of the San Ramon and Danville area would benefit
from uniform rates and uniform type of service. After exchange of comments and
discussion, staff was requested to revise certain financial data presented to
Board Members. It was the consensus of the Board to conduct another study ses-
sion on garbage rate increases for Diablo Disposal Service on March 29,1973. The
Board Members then scheduled a public hearing to be held on AprilS, 1973" to
consider garbage rate increases for Diablo Disposal Service and Valley Disposal
Service. Item continued to March 29,1973.

5.a. GARBAGE SERVICE FOR ORINDA
Mr. John Blackburn addressed the Board and recommended an investigation
regarding the institution of curbside garbage service at reduced rates for
residential customers residing in Orinda. Member Gibbs indicated that curb-
side garbage service was not desired by the majority of the residents of Orinda
due primarily for aesthetic reasons.' Member Boneysteele noted that he and
Member Gibbs had attended a meeting of The Orinda Association to discuss the
desirability of authorizing curbside garden trimmings service. Member Boneysteele
stated that in 1971 at this meeting, the reaction of the members of The Orinda
Association was definitely opposed to any type of curbside service for residents
of Orinda.
Board Members, Mr. Blackburn, Mr. Joseph Navonne, OrindalMoraga Disposal
Service, and Mr. Bohn, Counsel for the District, discussed and exchanged com-
ments regarding the matter. After discussion, it was the consensus of the
Board that in the event The Orinda Association wished to pursue the matter
further ~nd so indicated, the Board of Directors was prepared to schedule a
future public hearing in Orinda for the purpose of discerning whether the
majority of the residents of Orinda desired curbside garbage service.

SPECIAL SERVICE CHARGE, CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FIRE CHIEF'S ASSOCIATION
Chief Don Skinner, Moraga Fire Protection District and President, Contra
Costa County Fire Chiefs' Association, in a prepared statement stated that his
organization was firmly opposed to the Sanitary District imposing a special
service charge on other governmental entities or special districts. He in-
dicated that such action would only result in special districts presenting
counter charges for providing service to other entities and that he had re-
ceived authority from the Moraga Fire Protection District Commission to pre-
sent such a counter charge to the Sanitary District if necessary.
Assistant Chief Collins, Consolidated Fire District, addressed the Board
and in his remarks indicated that, because of the recently adopted Senate Bill
90, a cooperative approach by all special districts was important. He stated
that he would like to discuss the matter further with the Sanitary District
staff.
Board Members, Mr. Bohn, Counsel for the District, and staff discussed
and exchanged comments with Chief Skinner and Assistant Chief Collins con-
cerning the matter. After discussion, Member Mitchell suggested that District
policy for special service charges for tax free and governmental entities should
be reviewed based upon actual service provided to the Sanitary District. Staff
stated that a review of billings for special service ch~rges for all govern-
mental entities will be made and that staff would hold consultations with af-
fected entities. Item was continued.,
