Executive Summary:
The recommended resolution will authorize annexation of 20490 Harrington Drive, Sonoma, California with APN 128-162-001 to the Sonoma Valley County Sanitation District.
Discussion:
Carlile Macy (Applicant), on behalf of Richard M Altman and Sidney Jean Painter (Owner), has requested to the County of Sonoma, Permit and Resource Management Department (Permit Sonoma) that 20490 Harrington Drive, Sonoma, APN 128-162-001 (Parcel) be annexed into the Sonoma Valley County Sanitation District (District).
Permit Sonoma, Planning Staff has determined Parcel is located within the Western boundary of City, Urban Service Area, Urban Growth Boundary, and Sphere of Influence for Sonoma, and is consistent with General Plan Policies and Goals LU-3c, PF-1f, and WR-1p.
Applicant has indicated that there is a failing septic system serving an existing single-family-dwelling on Parcel. The applicant shall obtain a septic tank destruct permit prior to connection to the sewer system.
The District’s General Manager has determined that approval of the resolution in support of annexation is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(b), Existing Facilities, as it represents an additional connection to an existing public facility that involves negligible or no expansion of an existing or former use, and Section 15303(d), New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, as it consists of construction of limited new, small sewage improvements or reasonable length to serve the parcel. District staff has prepared a Notice of Exemption in accordance with the CEQA, the State CEQA guidelines and the District’s Procedures for the Implementation of CEQA.
The owner of Parcel must apply to the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) for review and approval of annexation of Parcel to the District, and LAFCO intends to add Parcel pursuant to requirements of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000.
Annexation of Parcel will not be effective until it has been approved by LAFCO and a LAFCO Certificate of Completion has been recorded with the Sonoma County Recorder’s Office.
Prior to sewer connection, the Owner of the Parcel must pay sewer connection and service fees required for all uses on Parcel based on the current method of calculations per District Ordinances in effect at the time of connection to sewer.
