LEGAL/LITIGATION
DISTRICT ANNEXATION 83-C
1.
Mr. Carniato advised the Board that on August 4, 1983, after hearing
objections of Mr. Scott Gordon, Attorney for Winton Jones, the Board voted
to approve District Annexation 83-C excluding the Winton Jones parcels.
Mr. Carniato advised the Board that they must elect to 1) proceed with the
Annexation as approved by Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo), or
2) stop the Annexation.
Mr. Scott Gordon, representing Winton Jones, addressed the Board
requesting a resolution of exclusion of the parcels in question be adopted
and that LAFCo be so notified. Mr. Gordon requested further that this
matter be returned to LAFCo for an additional publ ic hearing. If the
matter is returned to LAFCo and it is their opinion after the publ ic hearing
that they will not certify the Annexation, Mr. Gordon agreed that this Board
may proceed with District Annexation 83-C as amended by LAFCo.
Following questions by Member Carlson, Mr. Carniato stated that he knew
of no immediate urgency on the part of the other property owners. This would
not delay other annexations, only District Annexation 83-C.
Jay McCoy, Construction and Services Division, stated the recommendation
for inclusion of the Winton Jones property in the Annexation was based on the
following:
1 )
Impact on Elections, State Board of Equal ization and Assessor's
Departments would be minimized;
2)
3)
The parcels are in the natural gravity drainage service area;
Addition would make an orderly increment to the development
boundary; and
4)
At the LAFCo hearing Jones made no comments that convinced the
LAFCo Board that the property be el iminated from the Annexation.
Following discussion, it was moved by Member Stanley to resubmit
District Annexation 83-C to LAFCo as originally proposed el iminating the
Winton Jones parcels. Following additional discussion, the above motion
died for lack of a second.
It was moved by Member Stanley, seconded by Member Carlson, that an
alternative resolution be adopted, to wit: approving District Annexation
83-C if LAFCo removes the Winton Jones parcels from that Annexation or in
the alternative disapproving District Annexation 83-C, (Resolution No.
83-113), and further District Counsel was instructed to contact LAFCo to
work with them to bring this matter to an amicable settlement. Motion was
unanimously carried on the following polled vote:

REPORTS

COUNSEL FOR THE DISTRICT
a. Mr. Carniato, Counsel for the District, advised the Board that a
letter has been received relative to the Edmonston Ranch issue. Mr. Carniato
proposed that staff be authorized to respond to said letter stating that if
neither the density nor location change, the eight inch sewer 1 ine previously
installed as well as the proposed Camino Tassajara sewer will be sufficient
to serve the development. Board Members concurred with Counsel's recommendation.
