RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Canyon Lakes Geological Hazard Abatement District (GHAD) Resolution No. 2022/01 approving the Second Amendment to the Plan of Control.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The GHAD is funded 100% through assessments levied on properties in the GHAD.

BACKGROUND:

On June 4, 1985, The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 85/289 approving the formation of the Canyon Lakes Geologic Hazard Abatement District (GHAD) adopting the initial Plan of Control, and appointing itself to serve as the GHAD Board of Directors.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

GHAD Law (Pub. Res. Code Section 26500 et seq.) requres all GHADs to have a plan of control which describes in detail the geologic hazard, its location and the area affected and a plan for the prevention, mitigation, abatement, or control of the geologic hazard. The plan of control serves as the governing document for conducting GHAD activities.

On July 29, 1986, puruant to Resolution No. 86/446, the GHAD Board adopted amendment No. 1 to the Plan of Control. The intial Plan of Control and Amendment No. 1 acknowledges tat the Plans would be subject to revisions and modifications as new data or investigations warrant. Since the adoption of Amendment No. 1 to the Plan of Control in 1986, the GHAD General Manager has acquired additional knowledge of the geologic hazards within the GHAD and has refined best practices for mitigating geologic hazards. This new information is reflected in the sencond amendment to the Plan of Control plan dated May 11, 2022 which is attached.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

if the GHAD Board doesn't adopt the second amendment to the Plan of Control, the GHAD will operate under an outjdated plan of control.
