FROM: COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR
DATE: MARCH 25, 1986
SUBJECT: NEGATIVE DECLARATION - PROPOSED WATER SYSTEM FOR KNIGHTSEN AREA
Specific Request(s) or Recomen anon s Background & Justifica on
RECOMMENDED ACTION
ADOPT the Negative Declaration on the proposed water system for the Knightsen Area, on
the basis of'ithe Initial Study and that no comments have been received , and FIND that there
is no substantial evidence jthat the project will have a significant effect on the environ-
ment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None. The County Health Services Department had earlier submitted a pre-application to the
State of California requesting grant funding to provide for the construction of the proposed
water system' for the community of Knightsen. After receipt of a commitment for grant
funding, administrative costs, including those required for establishment of County Service
Area , are chargeable to the grant.. The only costs anticipated, therefore, may be some
interim administrative expenses and staff time of personnel in the Health Services, Com-
munity Development, and Public Works Departments for initial actions leading toward the
firming of the grant commitment, establishment of the service area , etc.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
The proposal to construct a";, community water system to serve the existing Knightsen area has
been under exploration by the community and the Health Department for well over one year.
In April 1.985 , the Board authorized the Health Department to submit a grant application to
the State Department of Health Services and also authorized County staff to initiate
actions towards establishment of a County Service Area for administration of the grant and
for the development and operation of the water system. This action is in furtherance of
those two authorizations. The State of California has informed the Health Department that
they will not process the grant application until the Environmental Process has been
completed.
