Conduct public hearing and adopt resolution confirming Tentative Report for CSA EM-1
(Emergency Medical Services) and declaring intent to levy specified assessments to be

B (balance of county). The lower
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
rate for Zone A reflects the fact that certain EMS enhancements are funded by other
revenue sources in the San Ramon Valley area. The proposed FY 2009-10 rates are
unchanged from the previous year.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to set the CSA EM-1 assessment rates prior to August 10, 2009 may result in the
EM-1 assessments not being included in the property tax bills countywide.
