Title
Consider recommendations regarding Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) special assessments for the commercial property in unincorporated area of the County with the California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA), as follows:
a) Approve and authorize the Chair to execute the Agreement for the collection of special taxes and special assessments with California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) establishing fees for placement of voluntary commercial property special assessments on the County tax roll pursuant to Streets and Highways Code section 5898.20(b) and reimbursing the County for expenses incurred for annual processing, correction of errors and special reporting requests;
b) Authorize the Auditor-Controller to place commercial property special assessments administered by California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) on the County tax rolls for the County (limited to the unincorporated area of the County), who has entered into a joint powers agreement with CSCDA, in order to participate and enroll in the CSCDA Open PACE Program which are Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs; and
c) Find that the proposed actions are not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(4) and 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines, because they are government fiscal, organizational, or administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
