SUBJECT:
|
Annexation of Property to the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District - Lands of Andersson and Flowers – Woodside Area
|
|
|
Recommendation
|
Acting as the governing board of the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District (District), adopt a resolution setting a time and place for a public hearing to consider the proposed annexation of the Lands of Andersson and Flowers to the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District.
|
|
|
Vision Alignment
|
Commitment: Ensure basic health and safety for all.
|
Goal 7: Maintain and enhance the public safety for all residents and visitors.
|
|
|
Your Board authorizing a public hearing to consider the proposed annexation, can result in providing effective sanitary sewer service to a parcel in a suburban area that would otherwise use an “on-site” method to handle wastewater, which could have an impact on neighboring residents.
|
|
|
Background
|
Previous Board Action
|
Entered into an agreement (Agreement) with the Town of Woodside (Town) to provide for the transport and treatment of sewage from the Town’s Redwood Creek Main Trunk and Glens Collection System Assessment District (Assessment District).
|
|
|
History
|
The Woodside/District Agreement as described above requires properties within the Town that are proposed to be served by the District to be annexed to the District, and also requires the Town to approve said annexations into the District. A public hearing to consider an annexation to the District is required pursuant to Section 5838 et seq. of the Streets and Highways Code.
|
|
|
Discussion
|
Theodore M. Andersson and Nancy M. Flowers, current owners of the property within the Town of Woodside at 124 Jane Drive and identified by Assessor’s Parcel Number 073-012-030, have requested that their property be annexed to the District for the purpose of receiving sewer service. Their existing septic system failed and they received a letter from the Office of Environmental Health permitting us to expedite their connection.
|
|
|
We have determined that the property can be served through the facilities of the District and the Town has agreed to provide the necessary sewer treatment capacity for the property.
|
|
|
We are recommending that a public hearing be set for your regular meeting of July 26, 2005, at 9:00 a.m., and we will post and publish the required notices if your Board adopts the proposed resolution.
|
|
|
A resolution has been approved as to form by County Counsel.
