AUTHORIZE A SPECIAL TAX ELECTION AND PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A BENEFIT
ASSESSMENT FOR COUNTY SERVICE AREA M-29
AUGUST 6, 1996
PAGE TWO
The purpose of the County service areas is to provide extended public facilities and services in the
County service area M-29. This provision of extended services is more fully presented in the Plan for
Providing Services for this service area, on file with the Local Agency Formation Commission of Contra
Costa County.
The services to be provided by County Service Area M-29 (CSA M-29) include the following types of
extended services: extended police services and construction operation and maintenance of park, trails,
recreation areas, open space, special landscaped areas, library, community center, senior center,
corporation yard, flood control and storm drainage facilities, and internal road network (including
bicycle paths and park and ride lots); and other extended County facilities and services as prescribed in
Government Code Sections 25210.4 et seq. These services in particular are set forth in the plan for
Providing Services for this service area, on file with the Local Agency Formation Commission of Contra
Costa County.
As territory of CSA M-29 is annexed into the City of San Ramon upon request of the
County, the City of San Ramon or the affected property owners, LAFCO is to waive the
application of Government Code Section 25210.9 so that the property being annexed can stay
within the County service area pursuant to Government Code Section 56375(p).
The regularly County assessment roll will be used for the collection of such fees and assessments in the
affected territory and for collection of any taxes that may be approved.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
The benefit assessment will not be levied and the project may not be able to proceed.

ORDINANCE NO. 96 -_AUTHORIZING A SPECIAL ELECTION
FOR A SPECIAL TAX TO PROVIDE FUNDING FOR EXTENDED
SERVICES FOR COUNTY SERVICE AREA M-29 (DOUGHERTY
VALLEY), SAN RAMON AREA
The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, as itself and constituting the Governing
Body of Contra Costa County Service Area M-29 (Dougherty Valley), San Ramon Area
ORDAINS as follows:
ARTICLE I. PURPOSE AND INTENT. The purpose of this Ordinance is to authorize
the levy of a special tax on parcels of real property on the secured property tax roll of Contra Costa
County that are within the County Service Area M-29(Dougherty Valley), San Ramon Area(CSA
M-29). CSA M-29 was formed on May 21, 1996 by Board of Supervisors Resolution No. 96/238.
Resolution No. 96/238 states that it is contemplated that CSA M-29 will be supported by special
taxes authorized pursuant to Government Code Sections 25210.6a,23027 and/or 50075 et seq. This
Ordinance provides for a county service area special tax authorized by Government Code
Section 25210.6a, a county special tax authorized by Government Code Section 23027, and that
portion concerning police service is a special tax authorized by Government Code Section 50075.
The revenues raised by this tax shall be used to provide the following extended services(the
"Extended Services"): extended police services and construction,operation and maintenance of
parks,trails, recreation areas,open space, special landscape areas, library, community center, senior
center, corporation yard, flood control and storm drain facilities,and internal road network
(including bicycle paths and park and ride lots), and other extended County facilities and services as
prescribed in Government Code Sections 25210.4 et seq.
This tax is a special tax within the meaning of Section 4 of Article XIIIA of the California
Constitution. Because the burden of this tax falls upon property this tax also is a property tax,but
this tax is not determined according to nor in any manner based upon the value of property;this tax
is levied on a parcel and use of property basis. Insofar as not inconsistent with this Ordinance or
with legislation authorizing special taxes and insofar as applicable to a property tax that is not based
on value, such provisions of the California Revenue and Taxation Code and of Article XIII of the
California Constitution as relate to ad valorem property taxes are intended to apply to the collection
and administration of this tax(Article IV of this Ordinance), as authorized by law.
ARTICLE II. DEFINITIONS. The following definitions shall apply throughout this
Ordinance:
1. "Parcel"means,the land and any improvements thereon, designated by an assessor's
parcel map and parcel number and carried on the secured property tax roll of Contra Costa County.
For the purposes of this Ordinance, parcel does not include any land or improvements outside the
boundaries of County Service Area M-29 nor any land or improvements owned by any governmental
entity(including the Camp Parks facilities owned by the U.S. government).
2. "Fiscal year"means the period of July 1 through the,following June 30.
3. Contra Costa County Service Area M-29 means the territory located within the
boundaries of CSA M-29.
4. "Use Code" means the code number assigned by the Assessor of Contra Costa County in
order to classify parcels according to use for ad valorem property tax purposes. A copy of the
Assessor's use code classifications chart is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein.
5. "Consumer Price Index" means the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers
(CPI-U) for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Area for April of the fiscal year immediately
preceding the levy of the tax as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor
Statistics. If the Consumer Price Index is discontinued or revised, such other government index or
computation with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as
would be obtained if the Consumer Price Index had not been discontinued or revised.
6. "Constant first year dollars" shall mean an actual dollar amount which, in years
subsequent to the first fiscal year the tax is levied, shall have the same purchasing power as the base
amount in first fiscal year dollars as measured by the Consumer Price Index. The base amount shall
be the amount of tax per parcel as specified in Article III IA herein. The adjustment from actual to
constant dollars shall be made by use of the Consumer Price Index, as specified in Section III IB
herein.
ARTICLE III. AMOUNT OF LEVEL OF TAXES
1. The tax per year on each parcel in CSA M-29 shall not exceed the amount applicable to
the parcel, as specified below.
A. For First Fiscal Year:
The tax per year for the first fiscal year (July 1, 1997 through June 30, 1998) shall be the
Amount of Tax Per Parcel for a Property Use Code Category as set forth on Exhibit B incorporated
herein.
B. For Subsequent Fiscal Years:
In order to keep the tax on each parcel in constant first year dollars for each fiscal year
subsequent to the first fiscal year, the tax per year shall be adjusted as set forth below to reflect any
increase in the Consumer Price Index beyond the first fiscal year a tax is levied.
In each July,the Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County shall determine the amount of
taxes to be levied upon the parcels in CSA M-29 for the then current fiscal year as set forth below.
2
CA962040.016
For each Property Use Category on Exhibit V, the tax per year on each parcel for each fiscal
year subsequent to the first fiscal year shall be an amount determined as follows:
Tax Per Parcel Tax Per Parcel (Consumer Price Index
For Then Current= For First X for April of Immediately
Preceding Fiscal Year)
Fiscal Year Fiscal Year (Consumer Price Index for First
Fiscal Year of Levy)
Provided, however, that in no event shall the tax per parcel for any fiscal year be less than the
amount established for the first fiscal year.
2. The taxes levied on each parcel pursuant to this Article shall be a charge upon the parcel
and shall be due and collectible as set forth in Article IV, below. A complete listing of the amount
of taxes on each parcel shall be maintained by the Public Works Department of the County of Contra
Costa at Martinez, and be available for public inspection during the remainder of the fiscal year for
which such taxes are levied.
ARTICLE IV. COLLECTION AND ADMINISTRATION.
1. Taxes as Liens Against the Property.
The amount of taxes for each parcel each year shall constitute a lien on such property, in
accordance with Revenue and'Taxation Code Section 2187, and shall have the same effect as an ad
valorem real property tax lien until fully paid.
2. Collection.
The taxes on each parcel shall be billed on the secured roll tax bills for ad valorem property
taxes and shall be payable to the County of Contra Costa. Insofar as feasible and insofar as not
inconsistent with this Ordinance, the taxes are to be collected in the same manner in which the
County collects secured roll ad valorem property taxes. Insofar as feasible and insofar as not
inconsistent with this Ordinance, the times and procedure regarding exemptions, due dates,
installment payments, corrections, cancellations, refunds, late payments, penalties, liens, and
collections for secured roll ad valorem property taxes shall be applicable to the collection of this tax.
Notwithstandinganything to the contrary in the foregoing, as to this tax: 1) the secured roll tax bills
shall be the only notices required for this tax, and 2)the homeowners and veterans exemptions shall
not be applicable because such exemptions are determined by dollar amount of value.
3. Costs of Administration by County.
The reasonable costs incurred by the County officers collecting and administering this
County special tax shall be deducted from the collected taxes. Otherwise, the proceeds of such tax
shall be used only for the benefit of residents in the Dougherty Valley area.

reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not effect the validity of the remaining portion of this
Ordinance. The voters of the area hereby declare that they would have adopted the remainder of this
Ordinance, including each article, section, subsection, sentence phrase or clause, irrespective of the
invalidity of any other article, section, subsection, sentence,phrase or clause.

voters voting within the CSA M-29 area in an election to be held October 15, 1996 so that taxes shall
first be collected hereunder for the tax year beginning July 1, 1997.

RESOLUTION NO. 96-
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE TENTATIVE REPORT, AND SETTING A
PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER ASSESSING A BENEFIT ASSESSMENT
FOR COUNTY SERVICE AREA M-29(DOUGHERTY VALLEY),SAN RAMON
AREA.
The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa RESOLVES THAT:
1. On May 21, 1996 the Board adopted Resolution No. 96/238 forming the County Service Area
M-29 (Dougherty Valley), San Ramon Area("CSA M-29").
2. The property within CSA-M29 will receive a special benefit over and above that received by the
general public in the form of the following types of extended services(the"Extended Services"):
extended police services and construction,operation and maintenance of parks,trails, recreation
areas, open space, special landscape areas,library,community center, senior center, corporation
yard, flood control and storm drain facilities,and internal road network(including bicycle paths
and park and ride lots), and other extended County facilities and services as prescribed in
Government Code Sections 25210.4 et seq. These services in particular are set forth in the Plan
for Providing Services for this service area, on file with the Local Agency Formation
Commission of Contra Costa County(LAFCO).
3. Resolution No. 96/238 states that it is contemplated that CSA M-29 will be supported by benefit
assessments. Ordinance No. 96/--provides for a county service area special tax authorized by
Government Code Section 25210.6a, a county special tax authorized by Government Code
Section 23027, and that portion concerning police service is a special tax authorized by
Government Code Section 50075.
4. A copy of the Tentative Report for the CSA M-29 Benefit Assessment(the"Tentative Report"),
prepared pursuant to Article 1012-2.6 of the Contra Costa County Code, is attached as Exhibit
A. The Tentative Report includes: a description of each parcel of real property receiving the
miscellaneous extended service;the total basic benefit assessment for the entire service area;the
estimated benefit assessment for each parcel; the calculations supporting the benefit
assessment; a legal analysis/explanation of why Camp Parks will not be subject to the proposed
benefit assessment; and a detailed engineer's report prepared by a registered, certified
professional engineer.
5. Based on its review of the Tentative Report,the Board finds that:
A. The Extended Services provided by the proposed benefit assessment will
directly benefit the assessed properties by increasing their value and habitability.
B. The cost of the proposed benefit assessment is proportional to the benefits that
will be bestowed on the properties to be assessed.
C. The proposed benefit assessment is not applicable to the parcels in Camp
Parks because the legal analysis/explanation in the Tentative report provides
clear and convincing evidence that the parcels that comprise Camp Parks will
receive no special benefit from the Extended Service.
6. The Board will conduct a public hearing(the"Hearing")on Tuesday September 24, 1996
at 10:15 a.m. in Room 107 of the Board of Supervisors' Chambers, 651 Pine Street,
Martinez, California 94553. The Clerk of the Board and the Election Department shall
provide notice of the public hearing, the right to protest, and the ballots as provided in
the attached order. At the Hearing the Board shall consider any objections or protests to
the proposed benefit assessment. The Board will also tabulate the ballots sent to the
record owners of each identified parcel in CSA M-29. The agency shall not impose the
assessment if there is a majority protest. A majority protest exists if, upon conclusion
of the hearing, ballots submitted in opposition to the assessment exceed the ballots
submitted in favor of the assessment. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots shall be
weighed according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected property. If
there is no majority protest,the Board will then adopt a resolution which: confirms the
Tentative Report; assesses the benefit assessment in the Tentative Report; finds that the
Director of the Contra Costa County Public Works Department,acting as the Designated
Director,has concluded that the Tentative Report conforms to the official assessment roll
for the year in which the benefit assessment will be collected and,therefore, constitutes
the Final Report for the CSA M-29 Benefit Assessment; confirms the Final Report; and
levies the benefit assessment for the fiscal year referred to in the Final Report.
