II. Financial Impact:
There will be no impact to the General Fund. All costs will be covered with revenue generated through
parcel assessments for the GHAD.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
William Lyon Homes, Inc. (formerly Presley Homes) is in the process of obtaining final map approval to
develop certain property located within the Henry Ranch (the"Henry Ranch Project"). The Henry Ranch
Project is a 91.49 acre area within the City of San Ramon that William Lyon Homes, Inc. plans to develop
into 100 residential units. Under Condition 28 of the City of San Ramon conditons of approval (City
Planning Commission Resolution 80-99) for the Vesting Tentative Map and Development Plan, William
Lyon Homes, Inc. is required to petition for formation of a Geologic Hazard Abatement District("GHAD")
or for annexation into an existing GHAD for the purpose of undertaking all site-related geotechnical repair
work. The GRAD will mitigate or abate landslide or erosion hazards that could directly affect improved,
developed, and accepted properties within the Henry Ranch Project.
The Henry Ranch Project has a common boundary with Wiedemann Ranch; furthermore,property within
the Henry Ranch Project has geologic conditions that are similar to those in the Wiedemann Ranch.
Consequently, the Henry Trust, current owners of the Henry Ranch Project property, filed a Petition for
Annexation of Territory to the Wiedemann Ranch GHAD on February 23, 2000.
Annexation of territory to a GHAD must also be approved by the legislative body that ordered formation
of the existing GRAD. § 26581. On September 1, 1998, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors
ordered by resolution the formation of the Wiedemann Ranch GHAD. Therefore, after the GHAD Board
orders the annexation, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors must approve the annexation by
resolution.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
The development will not proceed without the condition of approval to form a GRAD being met.
