RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution initiating proceedings for the North Valencia II annexation Storm
Drainage Fee and set the public hearing for June 13, 2000; and rescinding the fee imposed
on parcel number 2810-001-006.
BACKGROUND
In November 1996, California voters passed Proposition 218 — The Right to Vote on Taxes
Act. As a result, the city must conduct a majority protest hearing and a ballot election for
each area requesting annexation into the City to impose the stormwater fee on the
associated parcels.
On November 9, 1999, the City Council adopted Resolution 99-183 imposing storm drainage
utility fees for the North Valencia II Annexation with the exception of certain properties
listed in the Storm Drainage Fee Report 2. Adoption of this resolution would initiate
proceedings required by state law to assess parcels within the proposed North Valencia 2
annexation not assessed November 9, 1999.
Typically, Proposition 218 requires that if a new fee is imposed on a property, as a result of
an annexation application, a majority protest hearing shall be held not less than 45 days
after the mailing of the public notice. If no majority protest occurs, the city shall mail a
public notice of the proposed fee with a ballot to all property owners and hold a public
hearing not less than 45 days after the mailing of the public notice and ballot. If after the
closing of the public hearing, property owners elect to impose a fee, the City Council may
adopt a resolution canvassing ballots and imposing storm drainage utility fees.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
No other alternatives have been identified by staff.
