body
BACKGROUND:
The Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District (District) entered into an agreement with the Town of Woodside (Town) on April 2, 1968 (Agreement) for the provision of sewage transmission and disposal of wastewater collected through District facilities for properties within the corporate limits of the Town and within the Town’s Redwood Creek Main Trunk Sewer and Glens Collection System Assessment District (Assessment District). The subject property is within the Town and outside of the original boundary of the Assessment District.
Triton Property Investments LLC is the current owner of the property within the Town at 1100 Canada Road, which is also identified as Assessor’s Parcel Number 072-130-270. The owner has requested that the property be annexed to the District in order to receive sewer service. A hearing to consider an annexation to the District is required pursuant to Section 5820 et. seq. of the Streets and Highways Code.
This Board adopted Resolution No. 079895 on September 12, 2023, which set 9:00 A.M. on Tuesday, October 3, 2023 at the regularly scheduled Board meeting, as the time and place for a hearing to consider the annexation of the Lands of Triton Property Investments LLC to the District.
DISCUSSION:
The Agreement provides that no parcel exterior to the boundary of the Assessment District shall be permitted to connect to the sewer system acquired or constructed by the Assessment District without first obtaining the approval of both the Town and the District. The Town has consented to the annexation by adopting Resolution No. 2023-7579 on April 11, 2023 (attached), which authorizes the Town Manager to execute a supplemental agreement for the transfer of a certain unused sewer connection within the Assessment District to the Lands of Triton Property Investments LLC in order to maintain the integrity of the purchased sewer treatment capacity of the Assessment District. The District will be able to provide sewer service to the property if this Board approves the execution of the supplemental agreement.
The District prepared a geographic description and plat map for the property being considered for annexation, which are attached to the Resolution as Exhibits “A” and “B”, respectively. The hearing to consider the proposed annexation has been properly noticed. Therefore, the District recommends that the supplemental agreement be authorized and the annexation be approved.
County Attorney has reviewed and approved the resolution and supplemental agreement as to form.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The property owner has paid or will pay all required fees for the parcel as follows:
• Annexation Processing Fee: $1,800
• District Connection Fee: $5,754
• Plan Review Fee: $300
• Sewer Inspection Permit Fee: $300
• Miscellaneous Services Fee: $200
• State Board of Equalization’s Recording and Mapping Fee: $350
If the annexation is approved, the property owner will be subject to the annual sewer service charge levied by the District, which has been set for $1,055 for FY 2023-2024. The property owner will construct and pay for the sewer lateral that is necessary to bring sewer service to this property.
There is no impact to the General Fund.
