Resolution No. 2007/255
BACKGROUND:
The City of Pittsburg filed an application with LAFCO (LAFC 06-16) to annex an unincorporated area
known as the Mirant Power Plant Area. This area includes approximately 1,500 acres and is located
north of Willow Pass Road and south of the Suisun Bay. During the November 8, 2005 Election, the
citizens of Pittsburg approved Measure P. Measure P extended the City of Pittsburg's urban limit line
to include the area that is now being considered for annexation.
The City has an interest in future land use/design control of the Mirant Power Plant area and has an
interest in possible partnerships with Mirant in the future through the City's Power Company. The
City also has an interest in facilitating the construction of a multi-use trail along the former
Sacramento Northern Railroad right-of-way. In addition, the City intends to preserve the wetlands
and salt marsh habitats along the Suisun Bay waterfront. Furthermore, in addition to gaining land-use
control over the Mirant power plant site in the industrial designation, the City would also like to
provide a more attractive streetscape along the Willow Pas Road corridor, encourage private
investment and redevelopment of Willow Pass Road, east of Range Road, and actively pursue
redevelopment of vacant and underutilized parcels along Willow Pas Road with business and service
commercial uses.
The City adopted Resolution Number 07-1197 agreeing to the utilization of the master property tax
exchange factors for the annexation, the distribution of sales, franchise, and property tax generated in
the annexed area, and for the construction of two replacement fire stations for Stations 84 and 85 and
a Fire Prevention Bureau facility during their May 7, 2007 combined Redevelopment Agency,
Pittsburg Power Company, and City Council meeting.
Section 99 of the Revenue and Taxation Code provides that a city and county shall agree by
resolution to exchange property tax revenues among themselves and any affected agencies in the
event of a jurisdictional change. Attached are Resolution Number 07-10778, 07-10777 and 07-1197
(Attachments B, C, and D) adopted by the City and agreeing to the utilization of the master property
tax exchange factors for the annexation, the distribution of sales, franchise, and property tax
generated in the annexed area, and for the construction of two replacement fire stations for Stations
84 and 85 and a Fire Prevention Bureau facility during their May 7, 2007 combined Redevelopment
Agency, Pittsburg Power Company, and City Council meeting.
The County and City of Pittsburg have agreed to use the existing Master Property Tax Agreement.
Under the terms of that Agreement, the City shall be allocated 25.205% of the County's base tax and
50.41% of the County's annual tax increment allocation factor. The Annexation Area is entirely within
the City's Sphere of Influence. Upon annexation, and development begins, the County will realize
growth in its property tax revenue that it may not have otherwise received. In addition, the Allocation
of Tax Revenues Agreement and the Fire Station Replacement Project Agreement terms include:
• All Sales and use Tax Revenue collected by the City from the Annexation Area shall be
apportioned 50% to County and 50% to City;
• The City shall remit to the County any and all surcharge revenues received from PG&E for the
preceding year for the account of transportation customers located in the Annexation Area
(estimated at $300,000 for 2006 and will dramatically increase if Mirant upgrades their existing
facility or if a new or additional plant is built) ;
• City shall remit to the.County any and all Franchise Fees it receives from PG&E for the
preceding calendar year that were generated from the miles of gas transmission pipes and
electricity transmission lines in the Annexation Area;
• The City of Pittsburg and the Pittsburg Redevelopment Agency will construct two new fire
stations and a fire prevention bureau facility for the Fire protection District. The new fire
stations will replace the existing Fire Station 84 and the existing Fire Station 85. The new
Station 84 will be located at 1903 Railroad Avenue in Pittsburg. The new station 85 will be
located at 2331 Loveridge Road in Pittsburg. The fire district owns both of these properties.
The fire prevention bureau will be located adjacent to the new Station 85. The City and
Agency will be responsible for construction costs, which are anticipated to not exceed $10
million. Following the completion of each facility, title to that facility will be transferred to the
Contra Costa County Fire protection District. When all three facilities are complete, the Fire
protection District will convey 2555 Harbor Street to the City or Agency. The 2555 Harbor
Street property is where Station 85 is currently located and is adjacent to the City's Small
World Park.

A = B x 1/2C
D = B - A
Where A = the amount of the County' s base tax
to be transferred to the City. This
amount plus the base tax transferred
from special district (s) becomes the
City' s initial base tax for the tax
rate area.
B = the County' s base tax before the transfer.
C = the portion (expressed as a percent) of
the County' s annual tax increment
factor that will be transferred to the
City from the County as determined by
the formula expressed -in Paragraph
7 . a. (3) (B) below.
D = the County' s base tax after the transfer.

cent) of the County' s annual tax increment
allocation factor that will be transferred

E = the County' s annual tax increment allocation
factor before the transfer.

plus its share of the current year' s annual tax
increment for the affected territory, such share
being calculated by multiplying the tax resulting
from growth in assessed valuation in the affected
territory during the year times the agency' s annual
tax increment allocation factor (s) for that territory
as determined in Paragraph 7a (2) or 7a (3) (B) above.
The result (i.e. base plus increment) becomes the
base tax for the next year' s tax allocation calculations.

cation factors may be subsequently modified only through
negotiated exchanges in accordance with Revenue and
Taxation Code Sections 99 and/or 99 .1 for subsequent
