RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors authorize Annexation Number 2 to Drainage Area 76A and that a benefit assessment pursuant to the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, government code sections 54701 through 54718 be adopted for the area to be annexed. 2. DRAINAGE AREA LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION Drainage Area 76A formed on December 1, 1987, is located northeast of the intersection of Miranda Avenue and Livonia Road in the unincorporated area of Alamo. The site is bounded on the west and north by the City of Walnut Creek and on the east by the East Bay Regional Park District. A boundary description of the proposed area to be annexed is attached as Exhibit"A". 3. REASONS FOR THE ANNEXATION The area of the proposed annexation consists of 84.24 acres of land which includes one subdivision.The subdivision will create 51 single family residential parcels that vary in size from about 13,590 SF to about 38,620 SF and approximately 60 acres of open space. The impervious surface created by the subdivision will decrease storm water infiltration into the soil and increase the storm water runoff rate. If the increased flow.is allowed to drain into Miranda Creek without some form of mitigation, there is a potential that the capacity of the creek would be exceeded and flooding will occur. As a mitigation measure, the developer has excavated a detention basin within the area to regulate the storm water flowing into Miranda Creek The detention basin requires annual maintenance to ensure that it operates as designed. It is, therefore, equitable in the opinion of the Flood Control District that all properties benefiting by the existence of the detention basin pay a fair share toward its annual maintenance. It is, therefore, the recommendation of District staff that subdivisions and other developments that will increase the storm water flow-to Miranda Creek be annexed to Drainage Area 76A and have the benefit assessment levied. The annexation to Drainage Area 76A provides a legal entity under which the benefit assessment for maintenance of the detention basin can be levied, after a vote has been taken. 4. FACILITIES TO BE MAINTAINED Funds collected under the benefit assessment for Drainage Area 76A will be used for maintaining basin landscaping and maintenance of the basin including its access roads. Basin maintenance will also cover silt removal, embankment repair, and other scheduled maintenance type activities. 5. ESTIMATE OF MAINTENANCE COST The annual maintenance cost for the detention basin is estimated to be: 1. General Cleanup* $7,700 2. Desilting $17,500 3. Inspection & Storm Patrol $2,800 4. Embankment & Outlet Control Structure Repair $7,000 Total Annual Maintenance Costs $35,000 `lndudes irrigabm water. 6. BENEFIT ASSESSMENT A. Annual Maintenance Benefit Assessment: The impervious surface to be created by the subdivisions;is 223 Impervious Area Units(IAU, 1,000 square feet)based on information on file in the Flood Control District office. The annual maintenance cost assigned to each IAU would be $156.95 ($35,000 divided by 223 IAU). This results in an annual levy of approximately$688-per lot. The exact levy per lot is listed in Table A. B. Annual Maintenance and Reserve Fund Benefit Assessment: To provide adequate funding for unscheduled maintenance or contingencies, it is recommended that a reserve fund equal to five times the estimated annual maintenance cost be established. This$175,000 reserve fund should be created by levying a benefit assessment of twice the annual rate, but not less than $313.90. The $313.90 annual levy per IAU would create the recommended reserve fund within a period of five years. The reserve fund would provide immediate funding 'for unscheduled maintenance such as: 1. Bank repair 7,100 cy @ $20.00/cy $142,000 2. Fence repair 550 If @ $19/lf $10,450 3. Landscaping repair 1,500 sf @ $5.00/sf $7,500 4. Desilt upstream pipe 51days @ $3,000/day $15,000 TOTAL $174,950 Without the financial security provided by the reserve fund, unscheduled maintenance may not be done in a timely manner. This could result in the basin being left in an unsightly manner which could have a negative impact on adjacent dwellings. Should unscheduled maintenance or contingency charges reduce the reserve fund below the above recommended amount, the reserve should be restored by increasing the annual levy per IAU to twice the estimated annual rate. C. Maximum Assessment During a storm of unusual duration or intensity, or, during storms that closely follow each other, the detention basin and basin structures could be heavily damaged. This damage would be in addition to that requiring unscheduled maintenance as outlined under B.We estimate the cost for repair of damage due to unusual storms to be$175,000. The District appreciates the fact that the annual maximum benefit being recommended appears high, and hopes that it never has to be levied. However, to allow a lower maximum assessment may result in the inability to make repairs in a timely manner. It is recommended that the maximum benefit assessment of 3 times the estimated annual maintenance levy of $156.95 be adopted. This levy of $470.85 per IAU in conjunction with the reserve fund should be adequate to cover the cost of making this type of repair, and to repay any loans that may be required to fund the repair. The maximum maintenance shall be increased annually to account for inflation. 7. BENEFIT ASSESSMENT IMPLEMENTATION The annexation to Drainage Area 76A provide a vehicle for the maintenance of the detention basin and associated drainage structures. The annexation also provides that a levy be authorized by a vote of the various properties involved in the annexation. It is recommended that: 1) all new lots shall be assessed in the fiscal year following the filing of the final map creating said lots; 2) all existing lots that receive impervious surfaces shall be assessed in the fiscal year following the construction of impervious surfaces; 3) the maximum assessment to individual lots be established at 3 times the annual maintenance levy amount ($470.85 per IAU); 4) that a levy equal to twice the annual maintenance amount be levied until a reserve fund equal to 5 times the estimated annual maintenance cost has been created, and that after the reserve fund has been depleted the annual levy be increased by the factor of two to restore the reserve fund to its recommended amount; 5) the developer shall reimburse the Flood Control District for all maintenance costs in excess of the revenue from levies assessments until such a time as 75 percent of the lots have been improved and these lots are paying the annual assessment; and 6) that a vote of the property owners involved in the annexation be held to allow a maximum benefit assessment of$470.85 per IAU to be adopted. g:l fi"wotmengineer r# 1 .

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors authorize Annexation Number 2 to Drainage Area 76A and that a benefit assessment pursuant to the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, government code sections 54701 through 54718 be adopted for the area to be annexed. 2. DRAINAGE AREA LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION Drainage Area 76A formed on December 1, 1987, is located northeast of the intersection of Miranda Avenue and Livoma Road in the unincorporated area of Alamo. The site is bounded on the west and north by the City of Walnut Creek and on the east by the East Bay Regional Park District. A boundary description of the proposed area to be annexed is attached as Exhibit"A". 3. REASONS FOR THE ANNEXATION The area of the proposed annexation consists of 84.24 acres of land which includes one subdivision. The subdivision will create 51 single family residential parcels that vary in size from about 13,590 SF to about 38,620 SF and approximately 60 acres of open space. The impervious surface created by the subdivision will decrease storm water infiltration into the soil and increase the storm water runoff rate. If the increased flow is allowed to drain into Miranda Creek without some form of mitigation, there is a potential that the capacity of the creek would be exceeded and flooding will occur. As a mitigation measure, the developer has excavated a detention basin within the area to regulate the storm water flowing into Miranda Creek. The detention basin requires annual maintenance to ensure that it.operates as designed. It is, therefore, equitable in the opinion of the Flood Control District that all properties benefiting by the existence of the detention basin pay a fair share toward its annual maintenance. It is, therefore, the recommendation of District staff that subdivisions and other developments that will increase the storm water flow to Miranda Creek be annexed to Drainage Area 76A and have the benefit assessment levied. The annexation to Drainage Area 76A provides a legal entity under which the benefit assessment for maintenance of the detention basin can be levied, after a vote has been taken. 4. FACILITIES TO BE MAINTAINED Funds collected under the benefit assessment for Drainage Area 76A will be used for maintaining basin landscaping and maintenance of the basin including its access roads. Basin maintenance will also cover silt removal, embankment repair, and other scheduled maintenance type activities. 5. ESTIMATE OF MAINTENANCE COST The annual maintenance cost for the detention basin is estimated to be: 1. General Cleanup* $7,700 2. Desilting $17,500 3. Inspection & Storm Patrol $2,800 4. Embankment & Outlet Control Structure Repair $7,000 Total Annual Maintenance Costs $35,000 'Incudes irrigation water. 6. BENEFIT ASSESSMENT A. Annual Maintenance Benefit Assessment: The impervious surface to be created by the subdivisions is 223 Impervious Area Units (IAU, 1,000 square feet)based on information on file in the Flood Control District office. The annual maintenance cost assigned to each IAU would be $156.95 ($35,000 divided by 223 IAU). This results in an annual levy of approximately $688-per lot. The exact levy per lot is listed in Table A. B. Annual Maintenance and Reserve Fund Benefit Assessment: To provide adequate funding for unscheduled maintenance or contingencies, it is recommended that a reserve fund equal to five times the estimated annual maintenance cost be established. This$175,000 reserve fund should be created by levying a benefit assessment of twice the annual rate, but not less than $313.90. The $313.90 annual levy per IAU would create the recommended reserve fund within a period of five years. The reserve fund would provide immediate funding for unscheduled maintenance such as: 1. Bank repair 7,100 cy @ $20.00/cy $142,000 2. Fence repair 550 If @ $19/If $10,450 3. Landscaping repair 1,500 sf @ $5.00/sf $7,500 4. Desilt upstream pipe 5/days @ $3,000/day $15,000 TOTAL $174,950 Without the financial security provided by the reserve fund,. unscheduled maintenance may not be done in a timely manner. This could result in the basin being left in an unsightly manner which could have a negative impact on adjacent dwellings. Should unscheduled maintenance or contingency charges reduce the reserve fund below the above recommended amount, the reserve should be restored by increasing the annual levy per IAU to twice the estimated annual rate. C. Maximum Assessment During a storm of unusual duration or intensity, or, during storms that closely follow each other, the detention basin and basin structures could be heavily damaged. This damage would be in addition to that requiring unscheduled maintenance as outlined under B. We estimate the cost for repair of damage due to unusual storms to be $175,000. The District appreciates the fact that the annual maximum benefit being recommended appears high, and hopes that it never has to be levied. However, to allow a lower maximum assessment may result in the inability to make repairs in a timely manner. It is recommended that the maximum benefit assessment of 3 times the estimated annual maintenance levy of $156.95 be adopted. This levy of $470.85 per IAU in conjunction with the reserve fund should be adequate to cover the cost of making this type of repair, and to repay any loans that may be required to fund the repair. The maximum maintenance shall be increased annually to account for inflation. 7. .BENEFIT ASSESSMENT IMPLEMENTATION The annexation to Drainage Area 76A provide a vehicle for the maintenance of the detention basin and associated drainage structures. The annexation also provides that a levy be authorized by a vote of the various properties involved in the annexation. It is recommended that: 1) all new lots shall be assessed in the fiscal year following the filing of the final map creating said lots; 2) all existing lots that receive impervious surfaces shall be assessed in the fiscal year following the construction of impervious surfaces; 3) the maximum assessment to individual lots be established at 3 times the annual maintenance levy amount ($470.85 per IAU); 4) that a levy equal to twice the annual maintenance amount be levied until a reserve fund equal to 5 times the estimated annual maintenance cost has been created, and that after the reserve fund has been depleted the annual levy be increased by the factor of two to restore the reserve fund to its recommended amount; 5) the developer shall reimburse the Flood Control District for all maintenance costs in excess of the revenue from levies assessments until such a time as 75 percent of the lots have been improved and these lots are paying the annual assessment; and 6) that a vote of the property owners involved in the annexation be held to allow a maximum benefit assessment of$470.85 per IAU to be adopted. g.WckMworWngineer rpt Form 1024.16 DETERMINATION THAT AN ACTIVITY IS EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) FILE NO. 0651-61-0072 CP NO. 95-43 WO# L072 ACTIVITY NAME: Drainage Area 76A Annexation DATE: June 7, 1995 PREPARED BY: Janet Frattini This activity is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Article 5, Section 15061 (b)(3)of the CEQA Guidelines.
