OCSD 05-20 The Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District does hereby find: A. By adoption of Ordinance No. OCSD-30B, the Board of Directors elected to adopt, impose, and collect rates and charges for sanitary sewer services and facilities provided by the District and established procedures related thereto. The sanitary sewer service charges were set by Ordinance No OCSD-30B. B. California Health & Safety Code Section 5473 provides that such charges, as adopted by District Ordinance, may 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 separate from, its general taxes. C. As part of the budget preparation process, the District's Management has prepared financial and engineering reports, setting forth financial projections for providing the wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal services and facilities to the District's service areas for Fiscal Year 2006-07. The charges established by Ordinance No. OCSD-30B reflect an allocation of the costs of operation and maintenance, such that the charges do not exceed the estimated reasonable costs to provide the wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal services and facilities, and the revenues received are not used for any other purpose. D. Pursuant to California Constitution Article XlllD (Proposition 218), as of July 1, 1997, sanitary sewer service charges may be deemed to be charges for property- related services. The sanitary sewer service charges set by Ordinance No. OCSD-30B comply with the provisions of Article XlllD, in that they do not exceed the cost to the District to provide the service and facilities. The charges are imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs, maintenance, and operating expenses of the District's sewer facilities. NOW, THEREFORE, the Board of Directors of Orange County Sanitation District, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE, AND ORDER: Section 1: That the rates and charges set forth in Ordinance No. OCSD-30B are affirmed herein by the Board of Directors, as consistent with the findings hereinabove stated, for Fiscal Year 2006-07, in the following amounts: 1 REPEALED BY OCSD 07-09 \ Fiscal Year SFR MFR 2006-07 $165.80 $116.06 Annual Sanitary Sewer Service User Fees Residential Users SFR = Single Family Residential MFR = Multi-Family Residential All properties located within Revenue Area 14 pay no annual service fees.
