“The City of Orange has no objection to the conducting of a study
concerning the establishment of sewers in that area comprising
approximately 556 acres known as the Orange Park Acres area which
study would involve no expense to the City of Orange.
Neither does the City of Orange even oppose the construction of
sewers in the subject area to serve the residents thereof to be
paid for solely by the residents of Orange Park Acres provided
the following concerns of the City are satisfied:
1.The Orange Park Acres Association does not request
connection to any City-owned sewers in the subject
area unless the property owner or owners requesting
connection effect annexation to the City of Orange.
2.Subject to proper legal acquisition of necessary
easements for such purposes,neither the property
.owners not the Orange Park Acres Association will
object to any future placement of City sewer lines
through the subject area in order for the City of
Orange to serve areas north,east,west and south
of Orange Park Acres.
3.That property owners and the Orange Park Acres
Association express their intention to provide
sewer services only to the subject area surrounded
by the City of Orange city limits on the west,
north,and east and Chapman Avcnue on the zouth,
comprising approximately 556 acres and more
•particularly set forth on a map to be placed on
file with the Sanitation District with a copy of
said map to be supplied to the City of Orange.
Because the intention of the Association is to serve
•the area known as Orange Park Acres comprising
approximately 556 acres,the Association and resi
dents therein should commit themselves,not only
to refrain from attempting to annex new territory
to this sewer assessment district,but should commit
themselves to assist the City of Orange in promoting
annexation to the City of the area south of Chapman
•Avenue as well as all other areas within the sphere
•of influence.
4.Neither the Board of Supervisors,the Sanitation
District,the Local Agency Formation’Commission nor
any other public entity shall utilize the conduct
S
/

of the Orange Park Acres sewer study nor the proceedings
for the formation of any assessment district in the
Orange Park Acres area comprising approximately 556
acres as a reason to delay or hinder future annexations
by the City of Orange of territory within the approved
area sphere of influence of that City.
In summary,gentlemen,the City of Orange does not object to
persons forming districts to serve their own needs for sewers.
However,such legitimate desire of the residents of the Orange
Park Acres area should never be used as an excuse to hinder or
delay the annexation and development of land to the north,east,
west and south of said area which is within the sphere of influence
of the City of Orange as approved by the Local Agency Formation
Commission.
Of course,we of the City of Orange are certain that the residents
of Orange Park Acres have no such desire to impede the annexation
of territory to the City of Orange and the future development of
such territory in accordance with the Webb Plan which plan these
very same Orange Park Acres residents participated in creating.
Therefore,we assume that these Orange Park residents will have
no hesitancy in affirming their intention to serve only the 556
acres involved in the present sewer study proposal.”
After further discussion,the question was called for and following a
roll call vote the General Counsel advised that the motion had carried by
virtue of four .Directors -voting in f3vor thereof,and three Directors voting
against said motion.
Adjournment Moved,seconded,and duly carried:
That this meeting of the Board of Directors of County Sanitation District
No.7 be adjourned.The Chairman then declared the meeting so adjourned
at 8:51 p.m.,August 20,1975.
