5/01/12 Board meeting agenda

Background:

The Nipomo Community Services District (NCSD) is considering the formation of an assessment district to construct certain public capital water improvements known as the Nipomo Mesa Supplemental Water Project (Project). Because the District owns property subject to the proposed assessment, we have received a Notice of Public Hearing which has been set for 1:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 9, 2012, at NCSD Board Room, 148 South Wilson Street, Nipomo, CA 93444. Also received with the notice is Proposed Assessment regarding the Nipomo Mesa Supplemental Water Project and Official Property Owner Assessment Ballots for the amount of the proposed assessments for our parcels. If approved by affected area property owners, NCSD will begin work on a $27 million pipeline to bring water from Santa Maria to Nipomo. Additional background information from NCSD including videos of town hall meetings and related items are available on
their website at: ncsd.ca.gov


Interested parties from opposing perspectives of the proposed assessment have requested to share their views with the board and will be present at the meeting - Michael LeBrun representing Nipomo Community Services District, and Pat Eby representing Mesa Community Alliance, a Public Benefit Corporation.


Recommendation:
Neutral staff position. The Board may choose to submit ballots in favor, in opposition, or a neutral position (no submission of ballots) on the proposed assessments for the District's six properties in that area including Dana, Lange, and Nipomo Elementary Schools, Mesa Middle School, and Lopez and Nipomo High Schools.


Fiscal Impact:
Assessment Ballots for a total of $177,116.97 for the District's affected parcels are listed in the attached documents as received by NCSD.
