SUBJECT: Wiedemann Ranch GHAD Annual Report for the 2000101 Fiscal Year
On September 1, 1998, the Contra Costa Board of Supervisors, pursuant to the provisions of
Section 26550 of the Public Resources Cade, adoptedResolution No. 98/438 and formed tate
Wiedemann Ranch Geologic Hazard Abatement District(CHAD). Wiedemann Ranch is a 371
unit residential development along the south side of Norris Canyon Road near Bollinger Canyon
Road in the San Ramon area. On April 11, 2000,the GHAD's Board of Directors and the Contra
Costa County Board of Supervisors approved the annexation of the 100-unit Presley Henry
Ranch Development(City of San Ramon Subdivision 8188)into the District. The Board of
Supervisors is the Board of Directors of the District.
William R. Gray and Company, Inc., General Manager, prepared this report, including the
attached spreadsheets. This report is the representation of management and has not been
audited, reviewed or compiled by an independent accountant. There may be classification and
tinning differences between these reports and the accounting records maintained by Contra Costa
County; however, we believe that these differences, if any, are not material and would not
significantly change these reports.
The following chart details the sources and use of Wiedemann Ranch GHAD funds for the
2000101 fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2001:
Estimated Beginning Fund Balance--July 1,2000 $212257.83

Income. Income for the 2000/01 fiscal year totaled$102,654.97. The major source of revenue
is income from assessmentslevied on properties within the boundaries of the District. Property
assessments within the CHAD are adjusted annually to reflect increases in the Consumer Price
Index (CPI). It important to note that revenues from assessments levied on properties within
the boundaries of the District will generate approximately$300,000 per year at build out of the
projects.
The developer of the Lyon-Henry Ranch project in the City of San Ramon contributed$20,000
to the District to offset the cost of processing the annexation as well as a required update to the
Districts Plan of Control.
Funds generated by these assessments,and all interest earned thereon, are segregated and
deposited in a separate account for the exclusive benefit of the Wiedemann Ranch GHAD.
The Wiedemann Ranch CHAD has approximately$0.3 million in reserves as of July 1, 2001.
Expenses. Expenditures during this past fiscal year totaled$34,307.50; Details regarding
expenditures by category are discussed below and shown in detail in the attached spreadsheets.
1. Major Repair Program. There were no expenditures under the Districts Magor Repair
program.. Under the provisions of the District's Plan of Control,the developers of the
original two projects (Wiedemann Ranch and the Lyon-Henry Ranch) are responsible for
GHAD related activities for specified periods of time. The.District will assume
responsibility for an initial phase of the Wiedemann Ranch project in the fall of 2002.
2. Preventative Maintenance and Operations. Expenditures under the District's
Preventative Maintenance and Operations (PM)program accounted for$1,254.25 or
3.7%of the Districts total expenditures for the 2000/01 fiscal year. The only expenditure
in the PM program over the past year related to initial development of a Preventative
Maintenance and Operations Program for the District.

spreadsheets.
3. Special Projects. Expenditures tracked under the Special Projects portion of the
District's budget accounted for$12,184.54 or 35.2%'`of total expenditures during the
2000/01 fiscal year. Details of expenses related to the various"special projects"are
shown on the attached spreadsheet.
By far,the most significant of the District's Special Projects is the development and
implementation of a Geographic Information System(GIS). This project,being
completed jointly with the Blackhawk and Canyon Lakes GHAD's, features a web-based
system that will ultimately allow the District to display the location and condition of the
various District maintained facilities—piezometers,inclinometers, subdrains,B-58'
ditches and other facilities(subdrains,retaining walls,etc.). In addition,the system will
allow the District to locate and track calls from homeowners and others related to
reported incidents (landslides,drainage problems,'etc.).
Other expenditures tracked under the Special Projects portion of the District's Budget
relate to efforts to update the Plan of Control for the District to reflect the annexation of
the Lyon-Henry Ranch project to the District as well as to respond to concerns raised by
the United States Army Corps of Engineers related to an endangered species habitat that
is to be maintained by the District.
