RESOLUTION NO. OCSD 15-12
A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT DIRECTING THE
COUNTY TAX COLLECTOR TO INCLUDE SANITARY SEWER
SERVICE CHARGES ON FISCAL YEARS 2015-16 THROUGH
2017-18 PROPERTY TAX BILLS AND REPEALING
RESOLUTION NO. OCSD 13-05
The Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District does hereby
A. By adoption of Ordinance No. OCSD-41, 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-41.
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 2015-16 through 2017-18. The charges
established by Ordinance No. OCSD-41 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-41 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-41
are affirmed herein by the Board of Directors, as consistent with the findings
OCSD 15-12-1
hereinabove stated, for Fiscal Years 2015-16 through 2017-18, in the following

All properties located within Revenue Area 14 pay no annual service fees. District
costs relating to providing service to these properties are billed by OCSD directly to
the Irvine Ranch Water District, the local agency providing the local sewer service.
Section 2: That pursuant to California Health & Safety Code Section 5473,
the County Tax Collector is hereby ordered and directed to include sanitary sewer
service charges, as adopted by Ordinance No. OCSD-41, in the same manner, by the
same persons and at the same time as, together with, and not separately from, the
general taxes; and that such sanitary sewer service charges be included in the
annual property tax bills for Fiscal Years 2015-16 through 2017-18.
Section 3: That pursuant to California Health & Safety Code Section 5473,
this Resolution shall remain in full force and effect until amended or repealed, or until
such time as the rates of sanitary sewer service charges, as established by
Ordinance No. OCSD-41, are changed by increasing the annual rate.
Section 4: That the General Manager, or his designee, be, and is hereby
authorized and directed, to execute any necessary documents or agreements to
