This Resolution is adopted pursuant to the Cortese-Knox Act, Government Code Sections 56000 et seq. 2. The reorganization ("boundary change") ordered by this Resolution consists of formation of the Oakley Fire Protection District (OFPD) and establishment of the sphere of influence boundary for said District, detatchment of the territory currently known as the Oakley Reserve'Division from the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District (CCCFPD) and concurrent annexation of said territory to OFPD, detachment of a portion of the Hotchkiss Tract area from CCCFPD and concurrent annexation of said territory to the Bethel Island Fire Protection District (BIFPD). 3. The exterior boundaries of the above-noted boundary change are as specified in Exhibit A hereto. 4. The affected territory for this boundary change has been determined to be legally inhabited. 5. This boundary change is subject to the following conditions, as imposed by the Local Agency Formation Commission: a) The proposed reorganization shall become effective January 1, 1999 b) In accordance with Article XIIIB of the California constitution, the appropriations limit for the Oakley Fire Protection District shall be established at $1,267,300 and adjusted annually for changes in the cost of living. c) The name of the proposed new fire protection district will be the Oakley Fire Protection District. d) Fire protection services in the proposed new Oakley Fire Protection District will be provided by traditional paid-on-call personnel. It is the intention of the Board of Supervisors to continue the paid-on-call system unless future circumstances suggest that the system is no longer effective, in which case, the policy decision to alter or augment the system will be made by the Board of Supervisors. e) All equipment and other personal property, all real property, and all records, funding, rights, liabilities and assets, whether tangible or intangible, of the former Oakley Fire Protection District shall be transferred to and become the property, rights and obligations of the proposed new Oakley Fire Protection District. The Board of Supervisors, as the Governing Board of the Districts, shall take whatever measures are necessary to effect these actions. f) The chief officers of the Oakley Reserve Division of the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District shall be placed in non-merit system positions in the Oakley Fire Protection District as follows: Reserve Division Position Title Oakley Fire Protection District Title Volunteer Chief/Reserve Coordinator Chief Volunteer Asst. Chief[Training Coordinator Asst. Chief Volunteer Asst. Chief/Training Coordinator Asst. Chief All other employees of the Oakley Reserve Division will be placed in non- merit system positions in the Oakley Fire Protection District comparable to their present positions. g) All employees of the Oakley Reserve Division of the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District, as employees of the Oakley Fire Protection District, shall be paid at the level and on the basis they are paid at the time of this Reorganization. h) All employees of the Oakley Reserve Division of the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District, as employees of the Oakley Fire Protection Resolution No. 98/624 2 District will be eligible only for benefits being received at the time of this Reorganization unless otherwise authorized by the Board of Supervisors. i) This application recognizes that no employees of the Bethel Island Fire Protection District are affected by the reorganization. j) With this change of organization to delete territory from the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District, it (the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District) as it now exists shall remain in existence for the purposes and continued application of the Fire Protection District Laws of 1961 and 1987. 6. The affected territory will be taxed for any bonded indebtedness established for the new District, including the territory annexed thereto. Any bonded indebtedness existing for the territory annexed to the new District shall continue to be the obligation of the annexed territory. The regular county assessment roll will be used for the collection of taxes and assessments in the new District, including the territory annexed thereto. 7. This proposal will separate the dissimilar fire district operations, i.e., the fully staffed, fully paid Contra Costa County Fire Protection District and the paid on-call Oakley Reserve Division. The existence of a "volunteer" operation within a fully paid fire district has caused dissension among District staff, fire fighters union employees and the Oakley reserve staff. Because of the District's operating financial shortfall and the need for new fire stations in its pre-consolidation territory, staffing the Oakley station with full time firefighters has not been feasible. The efforts to displace the paid-on-call employees of the Oakley Reserve Division has caused a significant amount of morale problems among the ranks of the paid-on-call firefighters. The re-establishment of the Oakley Fire District will return a feeling of local control and fire service identify to the communities of Oakley and Knightsen which could help ensue passage of any revenue measures that may become necessary in the future to meet the fire service needs of the Oakley District. 8. This boundary change is categorically exempt (Class 20) under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). 9. This Board hereby finds that insufficient protests were filed to require termination of proceedings or election and, therefore, hereby ORDERS the County Fire Districts Boundary Reorganization, effective January 1, 1999, subject to the terms and conditions specified herein. 3 Resolution No. 98/624 �•S 10. The Clerk of this Board shall transmit a certified copy of this Resolution, along with a remittance to cover any applicable fees as proved by Section 54902.5 of the Government Code, to the Executive Officer of the Local Agency Formation Commission, with a request that the Executive Officer complete the boundary change by filing a Certificate of Completion and Statement of Boundary Change.
