Upon checking, it was found that the parcel of land was inadvertently included in the East Central County Travel Corridor (SR4) Area of Benefit. This matter is being corrected, and the refund of the fee of $380 is indicated. 2. Every parcel in unincorporated Contra Costa County has been assigned to an Area of Benefit or a subarea of the Countywide Area of Benefit. This parcel is in the Marsh Creek subarea of the Countywide Area of Benefit. Care was exercised in assigning parcels to subareas from which they would acquire the maximum benefit from future road improve- ments. It can be argued that the degree of benefit varies from parcel to parcel, but no parcel has been granted a blanket exception, and there is no other suitable area of benefit subarea for this remote region of Contra Costa County. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION Negative action could result in establishing a precedent allowing consideration for exclusion of land on a parcel by parcel basis using degree of benefit as the criteria of judgment. Area of Benefit revenue would be reduced; fees on remaining parcels would be increased to compensate for the reduction of revenues; and administrative effort and costs would increase significantly.
