Information

Referral History:

Parcel C, as commonly referred to, is County owned parcel at Buchanan Field Airport. Approximately one-third is in the County and the remainder is within the City of Concord. A majority of the parcel is within Runway 19R protection zone; which requires the land uses and subsequent improvements (such as locations, heights, and the like) comply with the FAA compatibility standards. The parcel is approximately 4.6 acres; about a third within the County and remaining two-thirds within the City of Concord (“City”) jurisdiction.

While the property may have development constraints, it is well situated for commercial/retail uses. Although the land is undeveloped, it’s access to and visibility from Highway 4 has resulted in many development interests over the years. Development attempts, however, have been prevented because there was not a tax share and development agreement between the County and City. As such, the County and City have been working on a draft agreement which were to address the primary issues at that time: (1) apportionment of sales, use and property tax revenues; (2) designation of the lead jurisdiction for planning and environmental; and (3) coordination and communication between the parties.

Referral Update:

A draft agreement and supporting resolution have been completed and reviewed by County and City staff. The agreement and resolution was reviewed and approved by the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors on December 6, 2016. The item is scheduled for review and consideration by the City Council for the City of Concord on December 13, 2016.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

This is a general discussion about the status of the sales tax share agreement between the County and City.

Fiscal Impact (if any):

None
