was higher than the bathroom that incurred the overflow. The spill
has been cleaned.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the report.
c. Discuss new claims
Staff stated that a home on Woodview Court in Lafayette sustained a
significant overflow on Friday, February 25, 2011. It appears that the line

Staff will review the circumstances. The cleanup will take approximately
six weeks, and the District will be paying for a rental home for the
occupants for approximately two months.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the report.
4. Review draft letter responding to Contra Costa County Employees’ Retirement
Association (CCCERA)
The Committee recommended two changes: remove the language “We think not!”
from the end of the second paragraph, and replace the word “materially” with
“substantially” in the fourth paragraph.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Recommended Board approval with the changes
noted above.
5. Review proposed Capacity Fee increase and revised Schedule of Environmental
and Development-Related Fees and Charges
Principal Engineer Jarred Miyamoto-Mills stated that staff is recommending a
very modest increase in Capacity Fees, from $5,451 to $5,465 for gravity service,
and a small decrease, from $7,092 to $7,071 for pumped service. Staff is also
recommending a small increase in Environmental and Development-Related
fees, where fifty-six fees would increase, and twenty-six fees would remain
unchanged.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Recommended Board approval.
6. Review request from Senro Sushi for Installment Payment of Capacity Fees
Staff reported that a Mr. and Mrs. Li intend to open a sushi restaurant in a space
that was previously designated as a deli. The proposed restaurant fits the
