Recommended Action: (con't)
DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to publish a Notice of Filing of the Annual Report and fixing of a public
hearing date thereon in accordance with Govenur►ent Code Section 25210.77a (Government Code Section 6066)
and Couniy Ordinance Code Section 1012-2.608.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to the County General Fund. All costs will be covered with revenue from CSA M-28.
Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
The proposed annual levy of water service charges benefits all property owners within CSA M-28 by providing
for a community water system (miscellaneous extended service) in accordance with Government Code Section
25210.4(d). The CSA M-28 (miscellaneous extended service) includes, but is not limited to, the acquisition,
construction, operation, replacement, maintenance, and repair of water supply and distribution systems,
including land, easements, rights-of-way, and water rights [Government Code Sections 25210.4(a)(1)].
In addition, the maximum annual charge rate for CSA M-28 is proposed to be increased from $75,300 to
$79,818 per parcel with an allowance for future increases based upon the prior year's change in the Consumer
Price Index for the San Francisco Bay Area—All Urban Consumers (beginning April 2007). In order to impose
the increase, Proposition 218 requires a majority approval of the property owners. The Board Order and
Resolution complies with the requirements for increased charges under Proposition 218.
Consequences of Negative Action:
The District would be unable to have the Fiscal Year 2007/2008 water service fees collected by the County Tax
Collector, and an alternate source of funding would have to be identified.

County Service Area M-28 (Willow Park Marina Water District) BACKGROUND
Fiscal Year 2007/2008 ANNUAL REPORT
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
On December 10, 1991 the Contra Costa Board of Supervisors approved County Resolution 91/807
which formed County Service Area M-28 (CSA M-28) - Willow Park Marina Water District. CSA M-28
was formed pursuant to the County Service Area Law to ensure the proper flow of funds for the ongoing
operation, maintenance and servicing of extended community water system services within in the Bethel
Island Area.
CSA M-28 has been given the power to acquire, construct, operate, replace, maintain and repair a water
supply and distribution system as authorized by California Government Code Section 25210.4(d) and
25120.4a(1). The funding for CSA M-28 comes from service charges which are obtained from the users
of the water system, in accordance with Government Code Sections 25210.77a and 25210.9
Each Fiscal Year since 1991, an Annul Report has been created and charges have been levied as a special
line item bn the County Property Tax Roll. The rate of the charge was established in 1991 and has not
been increased since then. However, the annual costs to operate and maintain the improvements have
increased at a steady rate since 1991. Therefore for Fiscal Year 2007/2008 it is anticipated that the rate
of the charge will need to be increased approximately 6%. In order to increase the rate of charge, voter
approval will be needed prior to final approval from the Board of Supervisors. The process to increase
the charge is discussed below.
CURRENT ANNUAL ADMINISTRATION
As required by the County Service Area Law California Government Code Section 25210.77a(a),
the Annual Report includes: (1) a description of each parcel of real property receiving the
particular extended service, and (2) the amount of the charge of each parcel for such year.
The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors will hold a Public Hearing on August 7, 2007,
regarding the CSA M-28 which will provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard.
At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the Board may adopt a resolution confirming the annual
charge as originally proposed or as modified.
Payment of these annual charges for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the
same time as payments are made for their annual property taxes. All funds collected through the
charges must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this
Report.
IMPACTS OF PROPOSITION 218
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote On
Taxes Act" which added Articles XHIC and XHID to the California Constitution. While its title
refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 establishes new procedural requirements for the fees,
charges and assessments.

County Service Area M-28 (Willow Park Marina Water District) BACKGROUND
Fiscal Year 2007/2008 ANNUAL REPORT
These new procedures stipulate that even if charges are initially exempt from Proposition 218,
future increases in the charges must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218. However, if
the increase in the charge were anticipated in the charge formula (e.g., CPI increase or a
predetermined cap) then the charge would be in compliance with the intent and provisions of
Proposition 218.
In order to implement an increase, Contra Costa County will apply the following procedures:
1) Every property owner within the CSA will be mailed a ballot, which will allow
the property owner to cast their vote on whether or not to increase the charge. A
notice describing the charge, the individual property owner's annual charge rate,
the duration of the charge, the reason for the charge and the basis upon which the
charge is calculated will accompany the ballots.
2) After the close of the public input portion of the Public Hearing on August 7,
2007, ballots, which have been returned to the Clerk of the Board, will be
tabulated to determine whether or not a majority protest against the increase in the
charge exists.
3) Publicly owned properties must be charged unless there is clear and convincing
evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the charge.
Exempted from the charge would be the areas of public streets, public avenues,
public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public
easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that
portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes
similar to private commercial, industrial and institutional activities.
All property owners will be noticed in accordance with Proposition 218 prior to the Public
Hearing. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, and after the ballots have been tabulated, the
Board may adopt a resolution confirming the increased annual charge rate if there is not a
majority protest. If there is a majority protest then the increase can not be implemented.

PART A
CHARGE LIST & METHOD
This part contains a description of each parcel of real property receiving water service from the
service area, the amount of the charge for each parcel for Fiscal Year 2007/2008, computed in
confonnity with the charges prescribed for service areas and the budget report.
CSA M-28 is comprised of 1 parcel. This parcel is approximately 23 acres in size and has a usecode
of"44"—which is a mobile home park.
The maximum charge rate was previously set at $75,300 per parcel (1991 dollars). Since 1991 the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the San Francisco Bay Area All Urban Consumers has risen
approximately 58%, however the charge rate has remained constant since 1991. In addition, costs to
operate and maintain the improvements have increased over the years. Therefore, it is proposed that
the Fiscal Year 2007/2008 charge rate be increased approximately 6% to $79,818 per parcel for
Fiscal Year 2007-08. In subsequent fiscal years it is also proposed that an allowance for an increase
be authorized based upon the prior year's change in the CPI. The CPI increase will be based upon
the San Francisco Bay Area - Urban Wage Earners as of April 2007 (215.84).

BACKGROUND OF CSA M-28
On December 10, 1991 the Contra Costa Board of Supervisors approved County Resolution 91/807
which formed County Service Area M-28 (CSA M-28) - Willow Park Marina Water District. CSA M-28
was formed pursuant to the County Service Area Law to ensure the proper flow of funds for the ongoing
operation, maintenance and servicing of extended community water system services within in the Bethel
Island Area.
CSA M-28 has the power to acquire, construct, operate, replace, maintain and repair a water supply and
distribution system as authorized by California Government Code Section 25210.4(d) and 25120.4a(1).
The funding for CSA M-28 comes from service charges which are obtained from the users of the water
system, in accordance with Government Code Sections 25210.77a and 25210.9
REASON FOR THE INCREASE IN THE CHARGE RATE
Each Fiscal Year since 1991, an Annul Report has been created and charges have been levied as a special
line item on the County Property Tax Roll. The rate of the charge was established in 1991 and has not
been increased since then. However, the annual costs to operate and maintain the improvements have
increased at a steady rate since 1991. Therefore for Fiscal Year 2007-08 it is anticipated that the rate of
the charge will need to be increased approximately 6%. In order to increase the rate of charge, property
owner voter approval will be needed prior to final approval from the Board of Supervisors.
DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
CSA M-28 provides for the ongoing operation, maintenance and servicing of the extended community
water.system within the Bethel Island Area.
BASIS FOR CALCULATING CHARGES
Each fiscal year the County Public Works staff will determine how much it will cost to operate and
maintain the above described Public Improvements within CSA M-28. These costs will be distributed
proportionally to all of the benefiting parcels within CSA M-28. Since there is only one benefiting parcel
all of the charges are allocated to Assessor Parcel No. 029-020-004-7.
DURATION OF CHARGES
In order to operate and maintain the Public Improvements within the CSA M-28, the County plans to levy
charges each fiscal year in perpetuity or until the water system improvements are no longer needed.
