ISSUE: A public hearing is required to establish the South Jackson Way Contractual
Assessment District (CAD) No. 2016-1. A public hearing is also required to create an
assessment district pursuant to the procedure adopted under Proposition 218, which
amended the California Constitution, Article XIII D, Section 4.
BACKGROUND: On January 7, 2016, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution of
intention to create the South Jackson Way CAD for the purpose of installing sewer
improvements on Jackson Way, Linden Court, Lyman Lane and South Jackson Way in
Alamo. The proposed South Jackson Way CAD complies with Board Policy No. BP 010
— Contractual Assessment Districts last revised on November 5, 2015, Twenty-two
properties could be served by a South Jackson Way CAD public sewer.
As required by Proposition 218, an Engineer's Report estimating assessments for
properties within the CAD has been prepared and distributed. It is now appropriate to
schedule a public hearing to offer interested parties the opportunity to comment on the
proposed assessments and related issues.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: Selecting a later date for the public hearing
would delay the CAD proceedings, since the holding of a public hearing is required by
law. Taking no Board action will delay the CAD proceedings until a different public
hearing date is set, since the holding of a public hearing is required by law.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: There are minor costs for publishing a legal notice advertising
the public hearing and for staff preparation and attendance. These costs will eventually
be paid by the CAD participants. Subsequent approval of the South Jackson Way CAD
would commit the District to finance up to $400,000 in sewer improvements, which
would be repaid by property owners.
