ISSUE: District Code and State law require that a public hearin held to receive
public comment on placing the Sewer Service Charges, Capacity Use Charges,
assessments for Contractual Assessment Districts and Alhambra Valley Assessment
Districts, and other fee installment payment programs on the County property tax roll for
collection.
BACKGROUND: California Health and Safety Code section 5473.1 and District Code
section 6.24.150 require the holding of a public hearing to consider the report identifying
properties and their associated charges that will be transmitted to the Contra Costa
County Tax Collector for collection on the property tax roll. At the public hearing, the
Board will hear any objections or protests to the report. If a majority of property owners
object to collection on the tax roll, then the charges must be billed directly. At the
conclusion of the hearing, the Board may adopt, revise, change, reduce or modify and
charge or overrule any or all objections to the report.
Legal notices will be published in the East Bay Times (formally the Contra Costa Times
and the San Ramon Valley Times) and the Notice of Public Hearing will be posted on
the District's web site.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: The Board could not hold the public hearing
and could opt to bill customers directly. Staff does not recommend this as it is more
economical to place charges on the tax roll for collection, which the District has done
since the inception of the Sewer Service Charge in 1976 as authorized by the California
Health and Safety Code.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None by setting the public hearing.
