RESOLUTION OF INTENTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO TO ESTABLISH SAN DIEGO COUNTYWIDE PERMANENT ROAD DIVISION NO. 1000, ZONE NO. 1017 – KALBAUGH/HALEY/TOUB STREETS

WHEREAS, pursuant to provisions of the Permanent Road Division Law (Streets and Highways Code Sections 1160 through 1197, in particular Section 1162.6), the Board is authorized to establish a Permanent Road Division Zone as a method for providing road improvement and maintenance services by the County within the unincorporated area.

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED, ORDERED AND DETERMINED it is the intention of the Board to establish a Permanent Road Division Zone as provided for in Streets and Highways Code Section 1162.6, as follows:

1.  A Permanent Road Division Zone is proposed to be established in the unincorporated area of the County as presented on the vicinity map as the territory proposed for inclusion in the area.

2.  The name proposed for such Permanent Road Division Zone is San Diego Countywide Permanent Road Division No. 1000, Zone No. 1017 – Kalbaugh/Haley/Toub Streets.

3. The services proposed to be provided within the Zone are annual, one-time grading operations.  Additional road maintenance and improvements may be performed when funds are available and as authorized by the Permanent Road Division Zone road committee.  Any road maintenance or improvements that cannot be funded by the assessment remain the responsibility of property owners.

4.  The Board of Supervisors proposes to levy parcel charges within the Permanent Road Division Zone pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 1179.5.  These charges constitute assessments within the meaning of Article XIIID of the State Constitution and the proposed Permanent Road Division Zone constitutes a "district" within the meaning of Article XIIID.  Government Code Section 53753 therefore provides the procedure for forming the Division Zone and for levying or increasing the assessments.

5.  A detailed Engineer's Report within the meaning of Article XIIID of the California Constitution is on file with the Department of Public Works.

6.  Boundaries of the proposed Zone, number of parcels therein, and a description of the particular roads which it is desired to construct, improve or maintain are set forth in the Engineer's Report.

PROJECT: RECOMMENDATION FOR COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO PARTICIPATION IN GROUDWATER MANAGEMENT OF THE BORREGO VALLEY GROUNDWATER BASIN (DISTRICT: 5)

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION: On October 16, 2019 (10), the Board of Supervisors (BOS) authorized the County of San Diego’s (County’s) withdrawal from being a Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) without adopting the Groundwater Sustainability Plan (Sustainability Plan) for the Borrego Valley Groundwater Basin (Basin). The BOS approved GSA withdrawal to support and facilitate the Water Rights Holders Stipulated Agreement (Stipulated Agreement) process that was being undertaken by water rights holders in the Basin. The Stipulated Agreement is an alternative to the adoption and implementation of a Sustainability Plan by a GSA, and allows water rights holders in the Basin to work together collectively to determine their water rights and manage the Basin through a court-approved process.

Representatives from agriculture, golf courses, and municipal groundwater pumpers in the Basin negotiated terms in a Stipulated Agreement, which was filed by the Borrego Water District (BWD) with the Superior Court of California (Court) on January 31, 2020. Once a judgement is approved by the Court, the Stipulated Agreement will allow groundwater pumpers to be involved in managing their own groundwater resources and provide a comprehensive determination of groundwater rights in the Basin. The Stipulated Agreement includes the establishment of a Watermaster, governed by a Watermaster Board that is tasked with ensuring that water is allocated according to the established water rights as determined by the Court. A Watermaster Board will function similarly to the role of a GSA that the BOS recently rescinded for the County in the Basin. The Watermaster Board will also collect fees, impose reductions on groundwater use, and keep the long-term reduction schedule. The stipulating parties have requested the County’s participation on the Watermaster Board along with a representative from the agricultural sector, golf courses, municipal (BWD), and the Borrego Springs community.

Staff recommends that the County attend the Watermaster Board meetings as a community participant, and also recommends technical staff with subject matter expertise sit on the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). Participation at this level will ensure the integration of groundwater sustainability measures with the County’s existing land use and well-permitting responsibilities. Since the County is not a water manager or supplier in the Basin, staff is not recommending the County participate in the Watermaster Board as a formal member.

This item is a request for the BOS to authorize staff to notify the stipulating parties of the County’s intent not to serve on the Watermaster Board for the Basin, but reiterate the County’s commitment to the participation in the program overall, through regular staff level attendance at Watermaster Board meetings and participation on the TAC.

SUMMARY OF FUNDING: There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended BOS action. Funds for staff attendance at Watermaster Board and Technical Advisory Committee meetings are included in the Fiscal Year 2019-2020 Operational Plan for the Department of Planning & Development Services. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The requested action to notify Borrego Water District of the County of San Diego’s intent to participate on the TAC and attend Watermaster Board meetings, but not serve as a formal member of the Watermaster Board for the Borrego Valley Groundwater Basin, is not subject to CEQA since it is considered an administrative action that is not defined as a project and will not result in any direct or indirect physical change in the environment, in accordance with Sections 15060(c)(1) and 15378(b)(5) of the State CEQA Guidelines.

GENERAL INFORMATION: This public hearing is accessible to individuals with disabilities.  If interpreter services for the hearing impaired are needed, please call the Americans With Disabilities Coordinator at (619) 531-5205 or California Relay Service, if notifying by TDD, no later than seven days prior to the date of the hearing.

If you challenge the Board’s action in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised at a public hearing, or in written correspondence delivered to the Hearing Body at or before the hearing.  Rules of the Hearing Body may limit or impose requirements on the submittal of such written correspondence.
