ISSUE
District Code and state law require a public hearing for placing the Sewer Service Charges (SSC),
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. Ordinance No. 330,
August 3, 2023 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 19 of 64
Page 2 of 8
adopted on June 21, 2023, contains a two-year schedule of SSC rates including the FY 2023-24 rates.
The FY 2023-24 SSC rates became effective on July 6, 2023. The FY 2023-24 single-family SSC rate is
$697 per parcel and rates for other user groups are listed in Ordinance No. 330. Contra Costa County
imposed a fee for collecting the SSC on the tax roll starting in FY 1982-83.
Property owners who have formed CADs have agreed to pay for sewer improvements over a 10 -year
period. These properties are listed in Exhibit A.
Property owners who have formed AVADs have agreed to pay for sewer improvements over a 15 -year
period. These properties are listed in Exhibit B.
Certain property owners have entered into written agreements to participate in Central San's fee
installment payment programs. These properties are listed in Exhibit C.
Certain commercial tenants and commercial property owners have entered into written financing
agreements to participate in Central San's programs for payment of Capacity Fees over a 15 -year period.
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, circulation
areas of the East Bay 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 fee imposed by Contra Costa County for collection of the charges on the tax roll is
$100,000. (This fee is significantly less than the extra staff positions which would be required for Central
San to directly bill over 118,000 parcels.)
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
This matter was not reviewed by a Board Committee.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION
Conduct a public hearing and adopt a resolution directing the FY 2023-24 SSC, assessments for CADs,
assessments for AVADs, and charges for other fee installment payment programs be collected on the
Contra Costa County property tax roll.
