Report of Special.Committee Chairman Smith reported on the
Studying Annexation Fees activities to—date of the Special
and Connection Charges Committee for Studying Annexation
and Connection Fee Policies.In
two meetings with the engineers and staff the committee has
reviewed the current annexation policy,and It is evident that
the present fee is not adequate to pay for facilities required
to serve the area annexable to the District.Based on infor
mation presented to the committee,it appears as if the
current annexation fee should be raised from $369 to approximately
$525 per acre.
The committee has also been discussing the pros and cons of
establishing connection charges with particular emphasis on
higher charges for high—density developments,as there is an
inequity in the relationship of taxes paid and services received
between high—density and low-density developments.Several
approaches to the current inequity problem are being considered
and several revenue programs are being studied which will mcre
fairly charge the user for the services rendered.The committee
will seek the advice of the Districts’legal counsel before
a recommendation is forthcoming.
The Chairman stated that in connection with the request for
annexation of approximately 1,337 acres by the City of Anaheim
and Anaheim Hills,Inc.,it was the committee ‘s recommendation
that said annexation be subject to any annexation fee established
pursuant to completion of the Special Committee’s study.

R~port of staff re request The General Manager reported that the
for annexation by CIty of staff ~iad rne~with the engineering
Anaheim and Anaheim Hills staff of the City of An~.heIm an~
Inc.in Santa Ana Canyon area representatives from i~naheim Hills,
Inc.in connection with the availability
of sewer capacity for 1,337 acres proposed to be annexed to the
District in the Santa Ana Canyon area.He reviewed the capacity
in the Districts’present system and outlined the master planned
facilities scheduled to be constructed to relieve the existing
system.The alternatives of constructing water reclamation
facilities in the vicinIty of the Riverside and Newport Freeway
interchange and oversizing the Santa Ana River Interceptor
were also reviewed.The General Manager pointed out that the
cash flow statement which had been presented to the Directors
reflected the large pipe size for the interceptor.The engineers
reported that construction scheduling could accomodate the
completion of Reach 2 of the Santa Ana River Interceptor (from
Katella to Jefferson)which will ultimately serve the proposed
Anaheim Hills development,at the same time as Reach 1 from
.Treatment Plant No.1 to Katella.
Based on present capacity,the staff has determined that a
discharge could be accepted from the area proposed to be annexed
of up to 350,000 gallons per day into the Districts’Olive
Subtrunk Sewer during the .10w flow period,without restricting
the development of any area presently within the District.It
was the staff’s recommendation that the City of Anaheim and
the firm of Anaheim Hills,Inc.be advised that annexation
to the District at this time could only be accomplished with
the understanding that the maximum flow acceptable from the
area proposed to be annexed would be 350,000 gallons per day
to be discharged during the low flow period untIl such time as
facilities are.available to relieve the system.
The Board entered Into a general discussion concerning the
proposed restrictions to be placed on the annexation.The
feasibility of requiring the developer to Install low volume
plumbing fixtures in the area was discussed at great length.
It was the general concensus of the Directors that the Board go
on record as strongly urging the City to consider the feasibility
of requiring Installation of low volume plumbing fixtures in
the area,but that it not be imposed as a condition of the
annexation.
