stormwater system and meet Clean Water regulations. The SDMP identified an approximately $4.8 million annual revenue need to fund clean water, flood protection, and stormwater system operating and capital improvement costs; and WHEREAS, the City Council authorized HF&H Consultants LLC to assist with the Proposition 218 noticing and balloting process, to perform a rate study, and to draft a Stormwater Fee Report (“Fee Report”) to determine the amount of the fees on various parcels of land that would, in compliance with Article XIII D, Section 6 of the Constitution, finance certain capital improvements, operations and maintenance needs and NPDES clean water compliance needs; and WHEREAS, the Fee Report includes a rate option to generate $3.2 million in Stormwater Fee revenue to fund annual costs and the very high and high priority capital improvement projects and while this option would not provide full funding of the system’s needs, it would ensure that the highest priority projects are addressed. Another amendment to the Fee would need to be considered in the next 5-10 years at which time additional system and climate adaptability information currently not available could be considered. NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of San Leandro does RESOLVE as follows: Section 1. Intention to Seek Approval of a Property Related Fee. The City intends to seek property owner approval of a proposed amendment to the existing Stormwater property related fee (“Stormwater Fee Amendment”), pursuant to Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution. Section 2. Fee Study. HF&H Consultants LLC has prepared and submitted to the City a Fee Report concerning the proposed amendment to the Stormwater Fee. The Fee Report was made, filed with the City, and duly considered by the City Council, and is hereby deemed sufficient and approved. The Fee Study shall stand as the Fee Study for all subsequent proceedings under and pursuant to this Resolution. Reference is hereby made to the Fee Study for the following: (a) a description of the Services; (b) the identification of the parcels upon which the Stormwater Fee Amendment is proposed; (c) the proportional cost of the Services attributable to each parcel type (i.e., land use category); (d) the amount of the Fee proposed for each parcel land use category and size; and (e) the basis upon which the amount of the proposed Fee was calculated.
