The Committee recommends that this Board exercise its authority to compel these parcels to be connected to the District's system and to comply with Order No. 74- 125 of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board for the Central Valley Region.

J. M. Walford, Engineer ex officio Sanitation District No. 15 By: THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Adopted this Order on June 27, 1989 by the following vote: AYES: Supervisors Powers, Fanden, Schroder, McPeak, Torlakson NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ SUBJECT: Sanitation District 15 Connection Requirements The Board this date adopted Resolution 89/419 requiring that all buildings meeting established criteria within Contra Costa County Sanitation District 15 be connected to the District' s sewer system. Elmer Schaal, Public Works Department, advised that the Sanitation District 15 Citizens Advisory Committee had conducted a study to determine the appropriate footage limitation and had agreed that 250 feet was reasonable. Mr. Schaal noted that there are four remaining parcels within the District that meet the criteria and should be required to connect to the sewer system. Mr. L. Scovel, 70 Sunset Drive, Bethel Island, advised that he was the owner of one of the parcels involved. He stated that he had been trying since 1983 to get his home and the neighboring home hooked up to the sewer system but had been unable to contact the owners of the property lying between his property and the sewer connection. Mr. Donald Thompson, General Partner, Leisure Landing Associates, 1200 Taylor Road, Bethel Island, commented on a discrepancy between the District' s records showing 160 boat berth rental spaces and the actual 144 rental spaces. He also advised that the restaurant listed on District records has not been in operation since 1985. Mr. Thompson stated that his property is 2, 500 feet long and the cost to hook up to the sewer system at this time would be prohibitive. He commented on the potential development of the neighboring property and advised that he would be willing to hook up to the District' s system when such development takes place. Paul Lillis, 60 Sunset Drive, Bethel Island, stated that in the past the Sanitation District had provided laterals for each parcel that connected to the system, but no laterals had been provided for his or Mr. Scovel' s property. Mr. Schaal advised that the County has the authority through the eminent domain process to assure that the sewer lines can be put through to the homes that are now required to connect to the system. He stated that laterals had not been provided to those specific houses but could be easily installed at this time. In response to an inquiry from Supervisor Torlakson, Mr. Schaal advised that a reimbursement agreement could be drafted to reimburse Leisure Landing for the cost of installing the sewer lines when the downstream property is developed. 1 Milton Kubicek, Deputy Public Works Director, advised that based on information received from Mr. Thompson today, the Department would re-evaluate the density and footage calculations for Leisure Landing. There being no further discussion, IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the Public Works Department is DIRECTED to work with all the involved property owners to implement the required sewer system hook-ups. I hereby certify that this is a true -no correct copy of an action taken and entered on the minutes of the Board of Supe ro on the date shown.
