SUBJECT: Senate Bill 1250 (Boatwright)
'rP (prepared by: Bo Barker, Management Assistant)
EXHIBITS ATTACHE~ 1250 (Boatwright) including the Legislative Counsel's Digest
RECOMMENDATION: Deliberate and provide COWlcilmember Moffatt with direction for the East
~y Division League of California Cities Meeting.
FINANCIAL
STATEMENT:
Unknown at this time
DESCRIPTION: The East Bay Division of the League of California Cities is currently reviewing
SB 1250 (Boatwright). Councilmember Moffatt, as the City's Representative to the East Bay League of
Cities, is requesting the City Council discuss the bill and provide direction to be communicated at the
next meeting of the East Bay Division of the League of California Cities.
The following excerpt is taken from the Legislative Council's Digest summarizing the bill:
"Existing law includes various provisions regarding local planning, to ensure economically and
socially desirable land use within the State. Existing law includes no specific provisions
regarding the provision of water service by special districts to urban growth areas within the
State.
This bill would ~uire any special district to provide water services to an area designated for
urban growth, as defined, when the applicable local agency formation commission has .
included that area within the special district's boundaries. This bill would also permit the
special district to refuse to provide service as required, by declaring that a lack of service
capacity exists, as specified. It would permit the City or County where the area for urban
growth is designated to challenge a refusal to provide service, by requesting a determination
from the local agency formation commission as to whether the lack of service capacity exists.
The bill would require the local agency formation commission to hold at least one public
hearing, and make its determination within 60 days of receiving the request for determination.
Because the bill would impose new duties on special districts and local agency formation
commissions, it would constitute a state mandated local program."
In Dublin, the bill would mandate that DSRSD provide water services to areas which come under their
jurisdiction. An example would be the East Dublin Planning Area. Under 5B 1250, DSRSD would be
mandated. to provide water services. Although DSRSD would be mandated to provide service, the
District could decline to provide service by stating there is a "lack of service capacity." This
determination, under 5B 1250 could be appealed to the Local Agency Formation Commission
(LAFCO).
Current Impacts
Currently, Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) has agreed to provide water service to the
East Dublin area. Provided that the DSRSD Board of Directors does not change their policy, SB 1250
would not currently impact the City.
Future Impacts
This bill may have an impact in the future. For example, if the Board of DSRSD changed, they could
theoretically change their position and state there is a "lack of service capacity." This would impact
development which requires their services. The City may not be able to approve development projects
due to the lack of water service.

A declaration of lack of service capacity could happen regardless of whether SB 1250 is passed into
law or not. The difference is the course of action the City would pursue if DSRSD were to take such a
position. With SB 1250 as law, recourse would be sought through LAFCO.
Conclusions
1.
The bill will not impact the City's current General and Specific Plan amendments
for the East Dublin Area.
2.
The bill could impact the City in the future if DSRSD changes its current position
of servicing the East Dublin area in the future. If DSRSD did change its position,
there are numerous options the City could pursue including the result of SB
1250 which would change how the City pursues a resolution of such an action
by DSRSD.
Recommendation: Deliberate on the bill and provide Councilmember Moffatt direction on how to
vote at the next East Bay Division of the League of California Cities meeting.
