ISSUE
District Code and state law require a public hearing for placing the Sewer Service Charges (SSC),
Capacity Use Charges, assessments for Contractual Assessment Districts (CAD), assessments for
Alhambra Valley Assessment Districts (AVAD), and charges for other fee installment payment programs
on the Contra Costa County tax roll for collection. A resolution of the Board of Directors passed by four
affirmative votes is needed to place charges on the Contra Costa County property tax roll for collection.
BACKGROUND
The SSC has been collected on the county tax roll since its inception in 1976. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2020-
July 16, 2020 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet- Page 40 of 393 Amended Agenda
Page 2 of 10
21 SSC rates were adopted on April 18, 2019 and became effective on July 1, 2020. On May 7, 2020, the
Board of Directors voted not to collect the SSC rate increase for the year 2020-21. As a result, the
previously-approved $31 SSC rate increase for single-family homes will not be collected, leaving $598 per
single-family home to be collected for FY 2020-21. SSC rates for other property types can be found in the
attached Schedule of Sewer Service Charges updated June 26, 2020. Contra Costa County imposed a
fee for collecting the SSC on the tax roll starting in FY 1982-83.
Certain commercial tenants and commercial property owners have entered into written agreements to
participate in Central San's Capacity Use Charge Program for payment of Capacity Fees over a 15-year
period. These businesses are listed in Exhibit A.
Property owners who have formed CADs have agreed to pay for sewer improvements over a 10-year
period. These properties are listed in Exhibit B.
Property owners who have formed AVADs have agreed to pay for sewer improvements over a 15-year
period. These properties are listed in Exhibit C.
Certain property owners have entered into written agreements to participate in Central San's fee
installment payment programs. These properties are listed in Exhibit D.
Payments are to be collected by placing assessments and charges on each property owner's tax bill.
Legal notices were published in the Contra Costa Times and the San Ramon Valley Times for the public
hearing. A notice of the public hearing was also posted on Central San's website.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS
Direct collection of these charges by Central San staff is an alternative. However, it is economical and
efficient to collect the charges on the property tax bills. Owners of the properties subject to Capacity Use
Charges, CAD and AVAD assessments, and charges for Installment Payment Programs have signed
agreements that the charges will be placed on the property tax roll.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
The estimated County-imposed fee for collection of the charges on the tax roll is $100,000.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
This matter was not reviewed by a Board Committee.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION
Conduct a public hearing and adopt a resolution directing that the FY 2020-21 SSC, Capacity Use
Charges, assessments for CADs, assessments for AVADs, and charges for other fee installment
payment programs be collected on the Contra Costa County property tax roll. Four affirmative votes are
required for adoption.
