ISSUE: Prior to entering into any lease of real property owned by the District, the Board
must conduct a public hearing. The subject property must be used for compatible uses
and for public benefit, and the term may not exceed ten years. Leased property also
must be declared unneeded for District purposes during the term of the lease.
BACKGROUND: The Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) has been leasing a portion
of District property to operate drying basins used for times when the primary basins at
the Bollman Water Treatment Plant reach capacity or require maintenance. Alum and
other residuals from the Bollman Plant are piped to the drying basins where they are air
dried and then hauled off. The drying basins have been in operation since 1997 and it
is estimated that 64 cubic yards of solids will be processed per year. Staff monitors the
operation via a current Class 11 Industrial User Permit issued by the District. The
proposed lease will extend the current lease for another five years with options for
additional years, but not exceeding ten years in total.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: The Board may decline to establish the
recommended public hearing date or may elect to choose a different date; however, a
public hearing must be held if a new lease is to be executed for this property.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: There is no material financial impact to setting the public
hearing.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: This matter was not reviewed by a Board
Committee.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Set a public hearing for December 15, 2016 at
1:30 p.m. to receive comments on leasing a portion of District property located on the
