September 17, 1947
Gentlemen:
Re:
Sewer Service to Proposed
School Site on Walnut Blvd.
In response to your request as to whether or not sewer
service may be provided at the site of the proposed new ele-
mentary school on Walnut Boulevard, and the date when such
sewer service would be availe.ble, we wish to advise as follows:
a. The Sanitary District has advertised for bids on
the first two sections of the main trunk sewer system
and will call for bids on succeeding sections as rapid-
ly as plans may be completed.
b. The present schedule indicates completion of the
main trunk sewer system within the area of the Walnut
Creek school district by August, 1948.
c. Local improvement districts for the extension of
sewers from the main trunk system to iddividual building
sites must be set up and their legal proceedings pro-
cessed to make service available to such sites. The
Sanitary Board plans to run these proceedings and their
construction concurrently with the construction of the
main trunk sewers.
d. The proposed school site on Walnut Boulevard lies at
a high point along that street. This site could be served
by sewer flowing to the northwest or by sewer flowing to
the south.
e. The Sanitary Board considers that small lot subdiv-
isions including Idylwood, Alton Oaks, Walnut Knolls,
Hermosa Manor and the Sans Crainte units, and including
the intervening acreage parcels lying to the south, and
southwest of Alton Oaks and Idylwood will be established
P.s a local improvement district. Service to this are~
could not be provided earlier than September, 1948.
f. The proposed school site lies approximately 3,000
feet northwesterly from the closest small lot subdivision
(Alton Oaks). The intervening property between the sub-
Divisions and the school site consists of parcels varying
in size from 1/2 to 10 acreas each, with the most of those
lands undeveloped or including scattered homesites.
g. The proceedings of a local improvement district are
covered by definite legal limitations. The cost of the
sewers installed under such a district is charged as a
direct assessment against the properties benefited. The
ôoncurrence of the owners of the acreage parcels lying
between the school site and Alton Oaks in the installation
of this sewer to the school site will be necessary if the
work is to be done as part of a Local Improvement District.
The Sanitary Board has no way of canvassing the sentiment
of these owners in advance of the actual proceedings for
a local district.
A rough estimate of the cost of extendin~ the lateral
sewer from Alton Oaks to the school site is $10,000. Such a
lateral sewer would serve the school site and the property
lying between it and the subdivisions. The Sanitary Board
considers the.t if a sewer is extended to the school site, the
School District should contribute the share of the cost of such
work which would have been paid had this property remained in
private ownership.
SUMHARY
The Sanits.ry Board can not, at this time, give definite
09
1 "'. >-

¡Üí:.
;' 'oj~.J
assurance as to when sewer service would be available to the
proposed school site on Walnut Boulevard.
The earliest possible date on which such service could be
available is September, 1948.
The extension of a lateral sewer to the schoo¡ site as
part of a Local Improvement will be partially dependent on
the needs for service to the area between the school site and
the developed subdivisions lying to the south. This extension
of e. latere.l sewer will also be dependent on the desires of
,the owners of the intervenin~ acreage parcels.
It may be necessary for the School District to underwrite
the cost of the sewer from Alton Oaks to the school site if
. sewer service is to be assured by September, 1948.
Yours very truly
CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA. SAN. DIST.
