The Board of Directors of County Sanitation District No. 5 of
Orange County, California, does hereby ORDAIN as follows:
Section 1: Purpose. The purpose of this Ordinance is to establish
a system of sanitary sewer service charges required to be paid by
property owners for the services and fa~ilities furnished by the District
in connection with its sanitation treatment works and sewage collection
system.
Revenues derived under the provisions of this Ordinance shall be
used for the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, maintenance
\...,I and operation of the sewage collection facilities and wastewater treat-
ment and disposal facilities of the District, together with costs of
administration and provisions for, necessary reserves.
Section 2: Annual Sanitary Sewer Service Charge. Each parcel
of real property located within the District which is improved with
structures designed for residential, commercial or industrial use and
connected to the District's system, shall pay a sanitary sewer service
charge based on the size of the water meter or meters in the sum or sums
as set forth in Table A of this Ordinance.
Section 3: Application of Ordinance. The provisions of this
Ordinance shall be in addition to Ordinance Nos. 508 and 510 of the
District establishing regulations for use of District's sewage facilities,
including provisions for payment of charges or fees related thereto.
"A-1" AGENDA ITEM #4(A) "A-1"
Section 4: Exceptions. The provisions of this Ordinance shall
apply to all properties in the District, and no exception shall be
provided for properties otherwise deemed exempt by provisions of the
State Constitution or statute, such as properties owned by other public
agencies or tax exempt organizations, except as expressly provided in
Section 5 hereof.
Section 5: Exemptions and Appeals. In recognition that certain
legal parcels of real property exist within the District which are not
connected to the District system and that other properties acquire
considerably greater potable water than is ultimately discharged to
the District's system ie is the intent of the District that said parcels
be exempt totally or in part from the payment of charges as prescribed
herein.
Any property owner may appeal the assessment of the charges and
submit a claim for rebate to the District on the forms prescribed· and
provided by the District, within one hundred twenty (120) days after
the annual property tax bills are mailed by the Orange County Tax
Collector. All applications for rebate of an assessment will be
determined by the General Manager of the District, who may grant a
partial or full rebate ~r adjustment of the charge based on receiving
satisfactory proof that an inequity exists between the amount or assess-
ment and the amount of wastewater discharged to the District's system.
Such inequities may include, bu~ are not limited to:
"A-2"
a) the number of connections on the parcel differs from
the assessment;
b} no service connection to the District system exists
from the parcel assessed;
c) principal water use is agricultural
AGENDA ITEM #4(A) ".A-2"
d) any other use wherein the amount of wastewater dis-
charged to the District's system is significantly less
on a regular basis .than the amount of potable water
received as measured by the meter on the property.
Section 6: Assessment Based on Fiscal Year. The sanitary sewer
service charge established by this Ordinance shall be for the fiscal
year commencing July l and terminating June 30, and there shall be no
proration of such charges.
Section 7: Method of Collection. Pursuant to the authority
granted by Cal~fornia Health and Safety Code Section 5473, a11· charges
established herein shall be collected on the County Tax Roll in the
same manner, by the same persons and at the same time as, together
with and not separately from, its general taxes. The County Tax
\.,,,I Collector is authorized and hereby ordered to make said collections
in accordance with the terms and conditions of agreements between the
County of Orange and this District.
\._I
In the event District determines that errors or inequities exist
in the amount of charges to be collected by the County Tax Collector,
District may submit a bill for any difference directly to the property
owner. Said invoiced amount shall be due and payable within thirty
(30) days of invoice date.
Section 8: Credit for Industrial Permittees: A credit shall be
allowed to all dischargers permitted pursuant to Article 3 of Ordi-
nance No. 508 for the annual sanitary sewer service charge established
by this Ordinance in the same manner as credit is allowed for ad
valorem taxes pursuant to Section 302.6 of Ordinance No. 508.

tive immediately upon its adoption by vote of two-thirds of the

This report is prepared pursuant to the requirements of California Health and Safety
Code Section 5473.
County Sanitation District No. 5 is responsible for the collection, treatment and
disposal of sewage generated within its boundaries. These services are essential
to the protection of the health and safety of the public served by the system.
Enactment of Proposition 13 substantially reduced income to the District from ad
valorem taxes on real property. Future tax revenue, estimated in reports on file
in the office of the Secretary of the District, will not provide the required fund-
ing to operate, maintain and rehabilitate the system. Therefore, a sewer service
charge is necessary to supplement the revenue sources for the forthcoming fiscal year.
The Board of Directors of County Sanitation District No. 5 proposes consideration of
an ordinance that will prescribe fees and charges for sanitary sewer services pro-
vided by the District to be charged to the respective parcels of property within the
territorial jurisdiction of the District. This report contains a description of
each parcel of real property that will receive the services of the District and have
access to utilization of the facilities, said parcels of real property being described
by reference to maps prepared in accordance with Section 327 of the California Revenue
and Taxation Code and on file in the office of the County Assessor, which maps are
hereby incorporated herein by reference. The Ordinance under consideration by the
governing Board of Directors of the District will provide revenues which shall be
used only for the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, maintenance and operation
of sanitary sewer facilities, and shall not be used for the acquisition or construction
or maintenance of new local street sewers or laterals as distinguished from main trunk,
interceptor and outfall sewers provided by the District.
The proposed sewer service charge for fiscal year 1981-82 to be assessed against e~ch
user of the District's sewerage system based on the user's connected water meter size
is set forth on Table A, attached hereto. Said table also sets forth exemption pro-
visions. The estimated 1981-82 charge for each parcel based on the last equalized
assessment roll is on file in the office of the Secretary of the District.
If the proposed Ordinance is adopted, the Board of Directors may elect to have such
charges for the forthcoming fiscal year collected on the tax roll in the same manner,
by the same persons, and at the same time as, together with and not separately from,
the general taxes of this District and the County of Orange.
At the time stated in the notice setting the public hearing on this report, the
governing Board of Directors shall hear and consider all objections or protests,
if any, to said report referred to in said notice, and may continue the hearing
from time to time.

If a parcel contains more than one water meter, then the charge applicable to each
meter shall be added together and the sum levied against the parcel.
In recognition that certain legal parcels of real property exist within the District
which are not connected to the District system and that other properties acquire
considerably greater potable water than is ultimately discharged to the District's
system it is the intent of the District that said parcels be exempt totally or in
part from the payment of charges as prescribed herein.
Any property owner may appeal the assessment of the charges and submit a claim for
rebate to the District on the forms prescribed and provided by the District, within
one hundred twenty (120) days after the annual property tax bills are mailed by the
Orange County Tax Collector. All applications for rebate of an assessment will be
determined by the General Manager of the District, who may grant a partial or full
rebate or adjustment of the charge based on receiving satisfactory proof tha.t an
inequity exists between the amount or assessment and the amount of wastewater dis-
charged to the District's system. Such inequities may include, but are not limited
to:
a) the number of connections on the parcel differs from the assessment;
b) no service connection to the District system exists from the parcel assessed;
c) principal water use is agricultural
d) any other use wherein the amount of wastewater discharged to the District's
system is significantly less on a regular basis than the amount of potable
water received as measured by the meter on the property.
Pursuant to the authority granted by California Health and Safety Code Section 5473,
all charges established herein shall be collected on the County Tax Roll in the same

In the event District determines that errors or inequities exist in the amount of

A credit shall be allowed to all dischargers permitted pursuant to Article 3 of

-We expect some vocal opposition at the July 1st hearing
-However, based upon the extremely limited participation at the
public meetings to date, there appears to be very little
community opposition to implementation of the fee
-The concerns expressed have been addressed
-The Two Major Concerns are:
-Prop. 13 -While we all appreciate the intent and
mandate of Prop. 13, District No. 5 is somewhat unique.
It is an essential service for protecting the
public health and safety
-As a sewerage agency, it is a single-purpose
utility without the luxury of so-called unnecessary
or nice-to-have projects and costs that can be
eliminated without seriously jeopardizing the public
health and safety.
-Our operating costs are being affected by influences
beyond our control.
-Inflation
-Escalating Energy
-Stricter Federal & State Regulations
-Equity
While it is extremely difficult to arrive at total
equity without incurring very high costs of admini-
stering the program the Board addressed the problem
at the June 10th meeting adopting the f?llowing action:
-Reaffirmed the Board's intent that the proposed
program of sewer service charges be equitable, and
directing the staff to conduct a study of multiple
dwelling and commercial properties within the
District and to submit a report and recommendations
prior to July 1, 1982, for any modifications of
the program necessary to correct inequities found
to exist, for consideration and implementation by
the Board for the 1982-83 fiscal year
This will enable us to arrive at achieving substantial
equity yet keep the cost of administering the program
to a minimum.
-We really have no alternative but to implement a user fee. If we
don't, without the added revenue to replace the 60% reduction
because of Prop. 13
-We will not have sufficient funds to rehabilitate the rapidly
deteriorating collection system
-We will not have sufficient funds to pay increasing operating
costs in the not-too-distant future and thus, because all
of District S's wastewater is pumped, the sewage could not
be transported out of the area to the treatment plant
-4-
.· ~
-If we delay the decision
-It will be more difficult to implement at a later date because
the opponents will, with the taste of victory, be able to
generate organized opposition the next time
-We will incur considerable costs and effort to go through the
necessary procedures again
-Adopt County Sanitation District No. 5 Sewer Service Charge Report for Fiscal Year
1981-82

-Operating costs which, because of pumping, are higher
than the other six Districts, are being affected by
influences beyond our control
-Inflation
-Escalating Energy
-Stricter Federal & State Regulations
-Equity
While it is extremely difficult to arrive at total equity
without incurring very high costs of administering the
program the Board addressed the problem at the June 10th
meeting adopting the following action:
-Reaffirmed the Board's intent that the proposed
program of sewer service charges be equitable, and
directed the staff to conduct a study of multiple
dwelling and connnercial properties within the
District and to submit a report and reconunendations
prior to July 1, 1982, for any modifications of the
program necessary to correct inequities found to
exist, for consideration and implementation by the
Board for the 1982-83 fiscal year
This will enable us to achieve substantial equity yet keep
the cost of administering the program to a minimum
-Growth·
-User fees will not pay for new capacity to accomodate
growth
-New development pays a separate connection fee
-We really have no alternative but to implement a user fee. If we don't,
without the added revenue to replace the 60% reduction because of
Prop. 13
-We will not have sufficient funds to rehabilitate the rapidly
deteriorating collection system
-We will not have sufficient funds to pay increasing operating
costs in the not-too-distant future and thus, because all of
District S's wastewater is pumped, the sewage could not be
transported out of the area to the treatment plant
.,
-If we delay the decision
-It will be more difficult to implement at a later date because
the opponents will, with the taste of victory, be able to
generat e organized opposition the next time
-We will incur considerable costs and effort to go through the
necessary procedures again
Therefore, staff respectfully reconunends :
-Adoption of County Sani tation District No . 5 Sewer Service Charge Report for
Fiscal Year 1981 -82
-Adoption of Ordinance No. 511

Dear Mr. Harper:
AGENDA ITEM 2Cc)
The Board of Directors of the Lido Isle Community Association has
reviewed the available data on·your proposed sewer use fee for #5
district of the County Sanitation Districts.
By unanimous vote we oppose your proposition, and further request
that this letter be recorded as a negative vote representing our
segment of the Newport Beach residents.
It is our opinion that this proposed fee is redundant to the exist-
ing sewer service charge, violates the intent of Proposition 13,
and this fee is not imposed just for a one-time rehabilitation of
the system, but will continue, and increased, to cover nor.mal future
operating costs for a full tax supported public utility.

Attention: William F. Shaver, Director
Subject: Proposed County Sanitation District No. 5 Sewer Service Charge
----------------------------------------·---··--------····
Tilis will acknowledge receipt of your letter dated Jt.me 25th regarding the
proposed County Sanitation District No. 5 Sewer Use Fee.
The issues facing District No. 5 are complex and, thus, difficult to adequately
\,,,,.) explain in a letter. As you are aware, our staff has been conducting a series
of public workshops throughout the area where a full report has been presented
on the problems that District No. 5 must solve. We have also met with community
service and interest groups and in late May we invited the Presidents of the more
than 60 local homeowner's associations to a special presentation on Tuesday, June
2nd. No one attending any of the meetings has identified themselves as represent-
ing Lido Isle Community Association. We would, therefore, like to take this
opportunity to briefly address the points which you have raised in your above
referenced letter as it appears this information may not have been available
to your board at the time it considered this matter.
We recognize that Proposition 13 is an important issue with the taxpayers.
Unfortunately, in providing for the allocation of post-Proposition 13 tax revenues,
neither the initiative or the subsequent implementing legislation recognized the
Wlique needs of essential property related services such as water and sewer.
District No. 5 is an operating utility, its sole function is the collection,
treatment and disposal of sewage. It performs no other services. To assure
the protection of the public health and safety in the Newport area it is necessary
for the District to collect a sewer service fee to provide the required funds to
rehabilitate and operate the sewerage system. Because of the more than 60% re-
duction in tax revenues since 1978, your assumption that the District is a "fully
tax-supported" publi_c utility is no longer corxect.
You are correct that following rehabilitation of the deteriorating system which
is, incidentally,· one of the oldest in the County, the user fees will be appro-
priated to cover rising operating costs. However, we would like to point out
that these increasing costs are, for the most part, beyond our control and are
caused by skyrocketing energy.costs, escalating inflation and more stringent
regulations imposed by state and federal regulatory agencies. Without necessary

funds to operate and maintain the system it would shut down when reserves are
fully depleted. Again, needless to say, this would seriously jeopardize the
connnunity's health and safety. Obviously, we have the responsibility not to
let this situation occur.
We would also like to clarify that the proposed charge is not a redundant charge.
The fee which is paid to the City of Newport Beach on the bi-monthly water bill
is for the maintenance and operation of the City's street sewers to which each
property is connected. Tile City's system, in turn, connects to the District No. 5
network of tnmk sewers and pumping systems. 1be proposed fee is for the rehabili-
tation and operation of the District system only.
We sincerely appreciate your interest concerning the proposed fee. We would like
to urge that you attend the public hearing on July 1st at 7:30 p.m. where, once
again, we will present a full report on the problems that must be resolved by
the District. We will also explain the District's operations and describe some
_of the policies practiced here that enable us to reduce costs and keep expenditures
at a minimum level. However, if you are t..mable to attend, if you will call me at
\,,,,,,,) (714) 540-2910, I will be most pleased to further discuss this matter with you
and answer all of your questions.

Public Hearing on proposed
Ordinance No. 511 and Sewer
Service Charge Report for
1981-82
Report for Fiscal Year 1981-82
The Chairman declared the hearing on Ordinance
No. 511, An Ordinance of the Board of Directors
of County Sanitation District No. 5 Establishing
Sanitary Sewer Service Charges, and the County
Sanitation District No. 5 Sewer Service Charge
open at 7: 30 p.m •.
The Secretary reported that this was the time and the place noticed for the
purpose of receiving a written report pertaining to the providing of sewer
service for all properties within the District and to consider Ordinance No. 511
to establish a fixed service charge to be collected on the property tax roll
for the 1981-82 fiscal year.
Official notice of the hearing was mailed on June 5, 1981, to over 18,000
property owners of record on the last equalized assessment roll of the County
of Orange in accordance with the provisions of Section 5473.1 of the California
Health and Safety Code.
District No. 5
7/1/81
A legal notice of the hearing was published in the Orange Coast Daily Pilot
on June 11, 1981, and again on June 18, 1981.
In addition,advertisements describing the proposed sewer service .charge and
announcing the hearing were published on June 3rd and 17th in the Newport
Ensign, June 5th in the Orange Coast Daily Pilot and June 14th in the Los
Angeles Times.
The Director of Finance reiterated that the purpose of the hearing was to
consider a resolution of the serious financial problems of District
No. s. He stated that the root of the problem was really threefold. First,
District No. 5 has an old sewer system, one of the oldest in the Collllty, that
is rapidly deteriorating and is in need of major rehabilitation work, as
evidenced by the recent break in Pacific Coast Highway which closed Newport
Harbor in March. Secondly, impacts on operating costs beyond the District's
control caused by skyrocketing energy costs, escalating inflation and more
stringent treatment requirements imposed by Federal and State agencies. Thir~ly,
the District's revenues have decreased by over 60% since 1978.
Following a brief slide presentation depicting the issues facing the District,
the staff SUIIDilarized the public commentary to date:
-Four Public Workshops were held to inform property owners of the
proposed sewer service fee:
No. 1 -On June 11th in the Newport Beach City Council
Chambers -Attendance 9
No. 2 -On June 16th at the Oasis Center in Corona ael
Mar -Attendance 6
No. 3 -On June 18th at the Police Department Auditorium
(Fashion Island area) -Attendance 0
No. 4 -On June 25th also at the Police Department
Auditorium (Fashion Island area) -Attendance 7
-In addition, staff met with:
Homeowner's Association Presidents on June 2nd -Attendance 4
Public Service & Interest Group Presidents on June 9th (two
meetings) -Attendance 6 and O, respectively
The Chamber of Commerce on June 15th -Attendance 12
The Newport-Mesa Board of Realtors on June 18th -Attendance SO
-Staff also appeared before the City Council on April 13th and June 8th.
The questions raised at these public meetings dealt primarily with the issue
of:
-2-
;:-i D~strict No. 5
7/1/81
-Proposition 13 and governmental economy
-The equitability of the proposed system of charges
-Why the charge was not based on actual volume and collected
on the City water bill
-Whether or not the proposed fees would be used.to pay for
sewers to accomodate growth
-Why District Noo 5 was the first District to require a fee
and its relationship to the other six regional Sanitation
Districts and the City of Newport Beach
-Other technical questions relative to construction and
operation of District facilities
The staff also .~eported· that 198 of the response cards attached to the mailed
notice were returned:
-Ninety-nine owners felt.their property was not connected or were
unsure, or felt their fee should be modified because of lesser
water use then their water meter size might otherwise indicate~
These prop~sed fees were investigated and:
Thirty-four weTe corr·ect and no adjustment. was made •.
-Sixty-five were modified or assessed a zero charge because
the property was not connected.
-Twenty-five advised of a change of ownership.
-Four thought the charge on the City· water bill paid for District
sewer serviceo
-Fifty-four just returned the card without comment because they
thought they were supposed to.
-Sixteen raised the same issues that were brought out at the public
workshops.
Sixty-two telephone calls asking basically the same type of questions were
fielded by the office staff prior to the hearing.
The Director of Finance then addressed each of the issues that had been raised
in the public meetings. He explained the role of the District as a public
utility~providing ~essential service necessary for ~he protection of the public
health and safety, its wtique problems; and he described the financing needs
proposed to be met by a user .fee~required because of a 60% reduction in tax
revenues since 1978 when Proposition 13 was passed. Mr. Sylvester pointed
out the Board's declared intent that the user fee program be equitable and
explained the reasons for the basis of the proposed charge and its collection
on the property tax bill. It was emphasized that the fees would not be used
to pay for facilities to accomodate growth, as expansion of the system is
funded by a separate connection fee on new development.
Following the staff report the Secretary reported that two formal communica-
tions regarding the proposed sewer service fee had been received, whereupon
