August 14, 2007, the County of Contra Costa Board of Supervisors established CFD No. 2007-1. In a landowner election held the same day, the sole owner of property within the CFD voted to authorize the levy of a Mello-Roos special tax on property within CFD No. 2007-1. At CFD formation, the CFD boundary included two parcels in the Bay Point area of Contra Costa County (County). The future potential annexation area of CFD No. 2007-1 includes all parcels in the unincorporated area of the County that will be developed or redeveloped. In Fiscal Year 2013-2014, an additional two development projects had completed annexation into CFD No. 2007-1 for a total of 15 properties that are now a part of this CFD. It is anticipated that subsequent development projects within the unincorporated areas of the County will continue to annex into CFD No. 2007-1.
The purpose of the CFD is to generate special tax revenue to fund specified stormwater management facilities services provided by the County to the property owners within CFD 2007-1. The County began to provide authorized CFD services during Fiscal Year 2009-2010.
