HomeMy WebLinkAboutRESOLUTIONS - 01011997 - 1997-326 THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Adopted this Resolution on June 17, 1997 , by the following vote: AYES: Supervisors Rogers, Uilkema, Gerber, Canciamilla, DeSaulnier NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None RESOLUTION NO. 97/-32L SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE ENGINEER'S REPORT AND FIXING A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER LEVYING AN ASSESSMENT FOR ADDI- TIONAL PARCELS TO BE ANNEXED TO COUNTYWIDE L-100 LIGHTING DISTRICT The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County FINDS THAT: 1. The County is currently processing Minor Subdivision 9-95 (the "Development") consisting of two (2) parcels, more specifically described in Exhibit A. 2. On June 12, 1996 the applicant for the Development submitted a request to the Department of Public Works for inclusion of the Development into County Service Area L-100 (CSA L-100). The County intends to initiate proceedings to annex the Development into CSA L-100 pursuant to that request. 3. Once the Development is annexed into CSA L-100, the parcels within it will receive a special benefit over and above that received by the general public in the form of lighting services. This service is a "miscellaneous extended service" (the "Extended Service") as defined in Article 1012- 2.406 of the Contra Costa County Code. 4. In order to fund the Extended Service that will be provided to the parcels within the Development, it will be necessary to levy a service charge (the "Assessment'). The service charge meets the requirements of an "assessment' under Article XIIID of the California Constitution because it is conferred to provide the special benefit, defined above, on the parcels within the development. 5. A copy of the "Addendum to the Final Engineer's Report to the Board of Supervisors for Establishing A Street Light Service Charge for Fiscal Year 1997198 (the "Engineer's Report") is attached as Exhibit B. The Engineer's Report meets the requirements of a tentative report under Article 1012-2.602 of the Contra Costa County Code. The Engineer's Report includes: a description of each parcel of real property receiving the Extended Service, the Assessment Diagram, the total Assessment chargeable to the entire service area; the estimated Assessment chargeable to each parcel, the calculations supporting the Assessment, and the duration of the Assessment. 6. The Board has adopted the Engineer's Report for the Countywide Street Light Program on July 9, 1996. Based on its review of the Engineer's Report, the Board finds that: (A) The Extended Service financed by the Assessment will directly benefit the parcels within the development. (B) The cost of the Assessment on each parcel within the Development is proportional to the benefits that the Extended Service will confer on each parcel. Now, Therefore The Board Of Supervisors ORDERS AND RESOLVES As Follows: 1. The board will conduct a public hearing (the "Hearing") on August 5, 1997 at 10:30 a.m. in Room 107 of the Board of Supervisors' Chambers, 651 Pine Street, Martinez, California 94553. 2. The Board directs the Clerk of the Board to immediately provide the Public Works Director of Contra Costa County with a copy of this resolution. The Board directs the Public Works Director to mail the written notice of the Hearing(the"Notice")attached as Exhibit C to the record owners of each parcel within the development. The ballot (the "Ballot") attached as Exhibit D and the Engineer's Report shall be attached to the Notice. 3. The Board directs the Clerk of the Board to give written notice of the Hearing pursuant to Section 6066 of the Government Code. 4. Immediately before the Hearing the Public Works Department shall tabulate the Ballots. At the Hearing, the Board shall consider any objections or protests to the Assessment and certify the tabulation of the Ballots. The Board shall not impose the Assessment if there is a majority protest. A majority protests 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 weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected property. 5. If there is no Majority Protest, the Board may adopt a resolution which: confirms the Engineer's Report; levies the Assessment in the Engineer's Report; finds that the Director of the Contra Costa County Public Works Department, acting as the designated director, has concluded that the Engineer's Report conforms to the official assessment roll for the year in which the assessment will be collected and, therefore, constitutes the Final Report for the Assessment; confirms the Final Report; and levies the Assessment for the Fiscal year referred to in the Engineer's Report.

The service charge for each County Service Area is based upon several factors such as (1) cost required to pay the Pacific Gas & Electric Company's current monthly electrical bill; (2)the number and types of parcels within each Service Area; (3) a reserve fund for Administrative and Accounting services provided by the County and; (4) unforseen expenses such as electrical rate increases. The assessment revenue is used to pay for the total costs of operating the street light system and those costs are apportioned among the various parcels in the County Service Area (CSA) L-100 Lighting District. EXHIBIT C NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT: The County of Contra Costs is currently processing Minor Subdivision 9-95 consisting of the two (2) parcels described in Exhibit A. On June 12, 1996, the owner of these parcels submitted a request to the County Department of Public Works to annex them into County Service Area L-100 ("CSA L-100").
