AS THE GOVERNING BODY OF THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY
FLOOD CONTROL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT

AYES: Supervisors Powers, Smith, Bishop, McPeak and Torlakson
NOES: None
ABSENT: None
ABSTAIN: None Resolution No. 93/ 480
(West's Water Code App.
Ch. 13, Sec. 1.2.2 and 12.3)
SUBJECT: Repeal of Drainage Fee Ordinance No. 85-34, and the Adoption of a new
Drainage Fee Ordinance for Drainage Area 48D, Pittsburg Area. Project No.
7573-6D8217
The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County, as the Governing Body of the Contra
Costa County Flood:Control and Water Conservation District, RESOLVES THAT:
On June 22, 1993, this Board set a public hearing to consider the repeal of the existing
Drainage Fee Ordinance 85-34 and the adoption of a new drainage fee ordinance to
increase drainage fees in Drainage Area 48D.
On August 3, 1993, pursuant to the Board's Resolution of June 22, 1993,. this Board held a
hearing to consider the repeal of Drainage Fee Ordinance 85-34 and adoption of a new
drainage fee ordinance. At which time all written and oral objections presented concerning
these actions were considered.
This Board FINDS that any valid written protests filed do not represent more than one-half
of the assessed valuation of real property contained in Drainage Area 48D. This Board also
FINDS that no written petition for an election, signed by at least twenty-five percent of the
registered voters within Drainage Area 48D, has been filed.
It appears from the affidavits of publication on file with this Board that all notices required
to be given for such a hearing have been duly and regularly given and all procedures to be
followed have been followed, all in accordance with Sections 11 and 12.3 of the Contra
Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District Act and in accordance with
the provisions of the Board's Resolution of June 22, 1993.
The purpose of the drainage fees described in this resolution is to generate monies to
finance drainage improvements in Drainage Area 48D. The fees will be used to finance the
drainage facilities listed in the drainage plan and described in the engineer's report. As
discussed in more detail in said report and in the Report of Impervious Surface Drainage
Ordinance Dated January, 1982, the types of development that are subject to the fees will
generate additional impervious surfaces and stormwater runoff within said drainage area and
watershed, thus creating a need to expand or improve existing drainage facilities and a need
to construct new drainage facilities. Use of the fees paid by each type of development will
provide necessary infrastructure to mitigate adverse drainage impacts that would otherwise
result from such development.

development of property within the drainage area, with its resultant increase in impervious
surfaces, will require the construction of facilities described in the drainage plan; that the fees
herein provided to be charged are uniformly applied on a square foot of impervious surface
basis and fairly apportioned within said drainage area on the basis.of benefits conferred on
property upon which additional impervious surfaces in said drainage area are constructed; that
the estimated total of all fees collectible hereunder does not exceed the estimated total costs
of all drainage facilities shown on the drainage plan or included in the Engineer's Report; and
that the drainage facilities planned are in addition to existing drainage facilities already serving
the drainage area at the time of the adoption of the drainage plan.
SECTION III. EXEMPTIONS. The fee shall not be required for the following: 1) To replace a

exceed the amount required under Section VII.
