Reasons for Recommendations and Bac round: By letter dated December 11, 1998,David Larsen of Berding&Weil,LLP, on behalf of The Canyons at Blackhawk Owner's Association(Association)requested that the Beard of Directors authorize William R. Gray and Company,as General Manager of the Blackhawk GRAD,to review and report back on the viability of the Association becoming a member of the Blackhawk Geologic Hazard Abatement District GHAD. The following is a summary of our findings: 1. County Service Area(CSA)M-23 was formed in June of 1977 by Resolution 77/767 to fund a number of specified extended services. Geologic hazard abatement was added to the list of authorized services by the Board of Supervisors in April of 1986(Resolution 86/209). 2. The Board of Supervisors formed the Blackhawk CHAD in April of 1986(Resolution 86/210). The geographic area covered by the GRAD corresponds to the geographic area of the Blackhawk project and was initially coterminous with the geographic area of County Service Area(CSA)M-23. 3. In April of 1986 the Board of Supervisors and the Board of Directors of the GLAD entered into a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement(JEPA)under which the County(Resolution 86/211)agreed to fund operation of the GHAD using"CSA M-23 surplus"revenues(as defined). 4. CSA M-23 is comprised of four Tax Rate Areas(IRA's). The TRA allocation factors for the four TRA's are 6.92040%for TRA 66050; 6.84109%for TRA 66162;6.86203%for TRA,66166 and 0.00%for TRA 66343 (Blackhills annexation,not in GHAD,see#6 below). 5. On September 20, 1990,the Board of Supervisors approved the Blackhills project,now known as The Canyons at Blackhawk. The conditions of approval for the project were silent with respect to participation in the Blackhawk CHAD. 6. On October 10, 1990 the Local Area Formation Commission(LAFCO)approved the"Blackhills Boundary Reorganization"(LAFC 90-29)which,among other things,annexed the developed portions of the Blackhills development into County Service Area M-23. Prior to final approval by LAFCO,the Board of Supervisors approved a Determination of Property Tax Transfer for the Blackhills Boundary Reorganization(Resolution.90/589)and determined that there should be"no transfer of property tax to CSA M-23"as a result of the reorganization. 7. While The Canyons at Blackhawk is within CSA M-23,the action of the Board with respect to the Property Tax Transfer for the Blackhills Boundary Reorganization(Resolution 90/589),makes annexation into the CHAD problematic. 8. The boundaries of CSA M-23 and the Blackhawk GRAD are no longer coterminous. As noted above, operation of the Blackhawk CHAD is funded through a transfer of"surplus CSA M-23 revenues"under a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement(JEPA)between the Blackhawk CHAD and the County. "Surplus revenues"are defined to include all M-23 revenue after deductions for 1)drainage maintenance extended services(defined)and 2)street lighting extended services(defined). Before The Canyons at Blackhawk can be annexed into the Blackhawk CHAD,a source of revenue to support GHAD operations would be needed. At this point,there would appear to be two options: SUBJECT: CONCUR WITH FINDINGS AND AUTHORIZE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE BLACKHAWK GEOLOGIC HAZARD ABATEMENT DISTRICT (GHAD) TO RESPOND TO LETTER. FROM THE CANYONS AT BLACRIIAVvrK WNT ER'S ASSOCIATION REQUESTING ANNEXATION TO THE BLACK_HA GHAD [WO 51471 IRATE: .�T}I.,NIE 22, 1999 PAGE; 3 1. Modify the existing Property Tax Transfer Agreement for Tax Rate Area(TRA)66343 to provide funding for CSA M-23 at a level similar to that provided by TRA's 66050,66162 and 66166(approx. 6,87451%). This could be difficult because all other agencies in the TRA receiving tax revenges would need to concur. 2. The second option would be to establish a separate annual assessment for properties within The Canyons at Blackhawk. Linder proposition 218, imposition of the assessment would require 2l3 affirmative vote of owners of property within the"area of benefit"—likely the 37 properties within The Canyons at Blackhawk. Although an Engineering Study would be required to formally establish the level of the annual assessment, it would likely be close to 0.0683%of the average assessed value of property within the development or approximately$350 per parcel per year. It would be our recommendation that any such assessment be subject to annual increases based on increases in the Consumer Price Index(CPI). In addition to identifying a revenue stream to support CHAD operations, a precondition to annexation into the GHAD should be a"buy-in"to reflect the fact that the Blackhawk CHAD currently has a fairly substantial reserve account. Once The Canyons at Blackhawk joins the CHAD,they would have benefit of existing reserves. As a result, it is recommended that any property annexed to the GHAD property be required to"buy- in"to reflect the fact that existing properties within the CHAD have been contributing to the reserve account. A Reserve Study is currently underway and, if the owners of property within the Canyons at Blackhawk desire to purse annexation,the consultant retained by the CHAD to perform the reserve study should be asked to recommend an appropriate buy-in amount. IV. Consequences of Negative Action: The GHAD's response to the Canyons at Blackhawk would not be authorized by the Board of Directors.
