ISSUE
A resolution of the Board of Directors (Board) is required to authorize the recording of lot merger
documents to alter Central San's real property interests.
BACKGROUND
The Moraga Pump Station is located on land owned by Central San in fee. This facility is built on several
legal lots instead of one large parcel. The situation was brought up during a presentation on District
properties at the Real Estate, Environmental and Planning Committee on November 2, 2020. Staff was

requested to look into the matter.
While the merger is not necessary for continued operation of the pump station, one lot per pump station
would reflect Central San's current use of the land as some of the existing structures and improvements
straddle legal lot lines. Staff is working with the Town of Moraga to process the lot merger. The application
process requires a resolution from the Board to authorize initiating the lot merger.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS
The Board could decline to move forward with the lot merger. This alternative is not recommended since
Central San would continue to have an existing pump station structure straddling legal lot lines. Typically, a
lot merger would be required if this were a new construction project, in order to meet zoning and
development requirements.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
The approximate cost to merge the lots is $8,000 ($4,000 in application fees and $4,000 for staff time and
required title reports).
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
The Real Estate, Environmental and Planning Committee reviewed this matter at its meeting on July 20,
2021 and recommended approval.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION
Adopt the proposed resolution authorizing execution of the lot merger application for Central San property
located in Moraga and authorizing staff to record the lot merger documents with the Contra Costa County
Recorder.
