Resolution No. 2003- 25
Application by Truckee Donner Public Utility District
Requesting the Local Agency Formation Commission of Nevada
County to Take Proceedings for the Annexation of Placer County
APN 080-370-04 for the Yardas Parcel Split
WHEREAS, the property owners of APN 080-370-04 have requested the District to initiate
the annexation process in order to provide water service to the Yardas Parcel Split, a four
lot residential development located in the County of Placer; and
WHEREAS, the Truckee Donner Public Utility District desires to initiate proceedings
pursuant to the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 1985,
commencing with Section 56000 of the California Government Code, for the annexation of
Placer County Assessor's Parcel No. 080-370-04;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Directors of the District as follows:
1. Application and proposal are hereby made to the Nevada County Local Agency
Formation Commission for the annexation of certain uninhabited territory to the
Truckee Donner Public Utility District. The exterior boundaries of such territory
are described in the legal description attached hereto and by reference made a
part hereof.
2. It is desired that the proposed annexation provide for and be made subject to
the following terms and conditions: the property owner shall finance all
connection expenses, water system modifications and annexation costs.
3. The reason for this proposal is to provide additional water service to the above-
described territory sufficient to serve a proposed development that would include
4 single-family residential units.
4. This annexation is consistent with the sphere of influence adopted for the
Truckee Donner Public Utility District by Nevada LAFCo in 1983. The District's
sphere plan was updated in 1998 to comply with new Nevada LAFCo
requirements, however, only the Nevada County portion of the plan was adopted
by Nevada LAFCo. The District therefore requests that Nevada LAFCo proceed
with this proposal in consideration of the following: the District has documented
its ability to provide sufficient and sustainable service to the project, the District
already serves this property and adjoining properties, the proposal is generally
consistent with LAFCo's policy objectives, and the update of the Placer portion
of the District's sphere has been delayed only at the request of the County of
Placer, not because of the District's failure to provide adequate information.
5. The County of Placer has reviewed the subdivision proposal and found it
categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality
Act under Class 15, Minor Land Subdivision. The District has reviewed the
County's environmental findings and concurs with the findings related to the
District's provision of water service, and directs staff to file a Notice of
Exemption for this project with the Placer County Clerk.
6. The District certifies that, pursuant to Government Code Section 56663, the
subject territory is uninhabited and that all owners have provided written consent
to annexation. The Board of the Truckee Donner Public Utility District, as the
only agency that will gain or lose territory as a result of this annexation, hereby
consents to a waiver of the final protest hearing by Nevada LAFCo.
7. The District does not receive any property tax revenues and certifies that,
pursuant to Section 99 (b) of the Tax and Revenue Code , this proposal will not
involve a reapportionment of the County of Placer property tax.
8. Truckee Donner Public Utility District staff is hereby authorized and directed to
file a certified copy of this resolution with the Executive Officer of the County of
Nevada Local Agency Formation Commission.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the Board of Directors at a meeting duly called and held
within the District on the eighteenth day of June 2003 by the following roll call vote:
