RECOMMENDATION:

Acting as the governing board of the Oak Knoll Sewer Maintenance District and after conducting a public hearing, adopt a resolution:

Ordering annexation of property to the Oak Knoll Sewer Maintenance District - Lands of Withrington (19 Don Court, APN 058-040-190) – Redwood City (Oak Knoll) Area .

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 the proposed annexation can result in the District providing 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:

1.

Entered into an agreement with the City of Redwood City (City) dated
August 23, 1983, for the provision of sewage transmission and disposal through City facilities, of wastewater collected by the District for properties within the unincorporated area of Redwood City, and within the current boundaries of the District.

2.

Set 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, February 26, 2008, in the Board Chambers, as the time and place of a public hearing to consider the annexation of the Lands of Withrington to the District.

HISTORY:

Peter and Elaine Withrington are the current owners of the property at 19 Don Court, which is also identified as Assessor’s Parcel Number 058-040-190. They have requested that their property be annexed to the District in order to receive sewer service.

A public hearing to consider an annexation to the District is required pursuant to Section 4860 et seq. of the Health & Safety Code.

DISCUSSION:

The public hearing to consider the proposed annexation has been properly noticed and the appropriate description prepared.

A resolution has been approved as to form by County Counsel and the City has consented to the annexation by adopting their Resolution 14812.

The District is able to provide sewer service to the property. Therefore, we are recommending that the annexation be approved.

The property owner has paid the required fees which include:

Ø

Annexation Processing Fee:

$ 800.00

Ø

District Connection Fees:

$7,532.00

Ø

Sewer Treatment Capacity Fee:

$ 177.48

Ø

The State Board of Equalization's Recording and Mapping Fee:

$ 300.00

Ø

Sewer Inspection Permit Fee:

Ø

The property owner will be subject to the annual sewer service charge levied by the District, currently $500 per year, and will also be required to construct and pay for the sewer lateral that is necessary to bring sewer service to this property, if the annexation is approved and sewer service provided.

There is no impact to the General Fund.
