RESOLUTION OF APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL TO INITIATE PROCEEDINGS FOR
FORMATION OF COUNTY SERVICE AREA NO. EM-1
The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County Resolves that:
1 . Pursuant to the Cortese-Knox Act (Gov.C. SS 56000 ff. ) , this is a
proposal for the formation of a new "EM-1" (Emergency Medical) County
Service Area, said formation to be initiated by this Application to the
Local Agency Formation Commission for approval of the new service area.
2. The exterior boundaries of the area to be formed into County
Service Area No. EM-i are all of the unincorporated and incorporated
territory contained within Contra Costa County. A map showing such
boundaries, marked Exhibit "A" , is on file with this Board's Clerk.
3 . The reason for this proposal is to form a county service area to
provide emergency medical services (including ambulance, paramedic, trauma,
disaster and related training and equipment needed for these services) on a
countywide basis both within and without cities.
4 . The County's Director of Emergency Medical Services shall submit
to LAFCO's, Executive Officer (together with this Resolution of Application)
a service plan for these additional (extended) emergency medical services
pursuant to Government Code S 56653 and shall, upon the Executive Officer's
request, provide any additional data or information desired pertaining to
this matter.
5 . It is also requested that a sphere of influence for the new county
service area be established co-terminus with the boundaries of said service
area.
6 . The funding, for the Service Area is to be from benefit assessment
charges obtained from those benefiting from the facilities and services and
from user fees in accordance with Gov. C. SS 25210 . 66a and 25210 . 77a.
7 . No appropriation limit is proposed to be established for this area
since it is not presently anticipated that any proceeds of taxes will be
expended in support 'of it. For this reason, pursuant to Gov.C. S 56842,
the Board of Supervisors does not propose that this area (upon its
establishment) will assume any specific services now funded by the
"proceeds of taxes" . Therefore, there are no property tax revenues that
are subject to the property tax exchange provisions of Gov.C. S 56842 .
8 . This proposal is consistent with the sphere of influence of any
affected city or district.
89/571
9 . The Board of Supervisors hereby requests that the Local Agency
Formation Commission take action to accomplish the aforestated formation,
by proceeding under the Cortese-Knox Act.
10 . The Clerk of this Board is hereby directed to file a certified
copy of this Resolution of Application (together with a copy of the said
filed map marked Exhibit "A" ) with the Executive Officer of LAFCO.
I Irereby certify that this Is a true and correct copy of
an action taken and entered on the minutes of the
Board of Supervisors on the date shown.
