Brightbill — Senior Engineer y D. Gemmell — Environmental Services Division Manager `e Kent Alm Roger S. Bailey Counsel for the District General Manage ISSUE: A Resolution of Application is required to request the Contra Costa Local Agency Formation Commission ( LAFCO) to initiate boundary reorganization proceedings. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a Resolution of Application to initiate LAFCO boundary reorganization proceedings for District Annexation 187, including the finding that the Board has reviewed and considered the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Podva Property and agrees with findings of the Town of Danville (the Lead Agency) pertaining to Findings of Fact, adoption of mitigation measures, and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The District incurs costs to prepare annexation applications and pays fees to LAFCO, the County Surveyor, the County Clerk, and the State Board of Equalization for annexation processing. All annexation costs are tracked and recovered as "annexation charges ". For large annexations (ten or more subdivision lots) and reorganizations, the property owner provides a deposit and is charged an annexation charge equal to the District's actual administrative and related costs to process the annexation. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: The Board could decline to initiate a boundary reorganization for these areas, which would require that the property owners apply directly to LAFCO for annexation to the District. BACKGROUND: A recently approved, 20 -lot residential subdivision ( Podva Property) needs to be annexed to CCCSD to connect to the sanitary sewer system and to the East Bay Municipal Utility District ( EBMUD) to receive potable water service (see C:\ Users \danderson \AppData \Local \Microsoft \Windows \Temporary Internet Files \Content.Outlook \DVCG8C5G \PP DA 187 6 -19 -14 Final.docx Page 1 of 4 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: June 5, 2014 subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF APPLICATION REQUESTING THAT CONTRA COSTA LAFCO INITIATE BOUNDARY REORGINATION PROCEEDINGS TO ANNEX PARCELS IN ONE DANVILLE ANNEXATION AREA TO CCCSD AND /OR EBMUD (DISTRICT ANNEXATION 187 - PODVA PROPERTY) Attachment 1). These contiguous properties have been organized into one "annexation area ". The proposed action is a "boundary reorganization" because it involves annexations to two or more agencies. The annexation area is within the Spheres of Influence (SOI) of the both districts and the County Urban Limit Line. Staff has drafted a Resolution of Application requesting that LAFCO initiate boundary reorganization proceedings for the one annexation area. This area is described below: • Annexation Area 187 -1 is comprised of twenty residential lots and two common area parcels off Midland Way. All are proposed to be annexed to CCCSD and EBMUD. The residential lots have been approved for development by the Town of Danville as part of the Podva Property residential subdivision project. District staff has concluded that environmental impacts of annexing the properties in Annexation Area 187 -1 to CCCSD and EBMUD are adequately addressed in the Podva Property EIR, certified by the Town of Danville on April 1, 2014. A copy of the EIR is available on the Town website at: http: / /www.danville.ca.gov /Services /Planning_ Services /Development- Activities / Podva- Property- Residential - Development/. Adoption of the recommended resolution will establish the Board of Directors' independent findings that the Board has reviewed and considered the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Podva Property and agrees with findings of the Lead Agency pertaining to Findings of Fact, adoption of mitigation measures, and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Adopt a Resolution of Application to initiate LAFCO boundary reorganization proceedings for District Annexation 187, including the finding that the Board has reviewed and considered the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Podva Property and agrees with findings of the Town of Danville (the Lead Agency) pertaining to Findings of Fact, adoption of mitigation measures, and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program.
