Receive for information purposes application No. 22-01 for the El Macero County Service Area (EMCSA) Sphere of Influence (SOI) Amendment and Annexation of 27384 Eagle View Court, pursuant to GC §56857(a) 

Receive information, pursuant to GC §56857(a), on the latest application received, the El Macero County Service Area (EMCSA) Sphere of Influence (SOI) Amendment and Annexation of 27384 Eagle View Court (LAFCo No. 22-01).

The deposit to process the application has been paid by the applicants, Eric and Kate Stille.

This staff report provides the Commission and the EMCSA with formal notice of the receipt of a new application (see attached) pursuant to Government Code Section 56857(a). Because the proposal was not filed by the district to which annexation of territory is proposed, consistent with Government Code section 56857, this proposal was placed on the agenda for information purposes only and a copy of the application has been transmitted to the EMCSA to either, a) adopt and transmit to the commission a resolution requesting termination of the proceedings or b) adopt and transmit to the commission a resolution supporting the proposed change of organization. Staff fully expects the EMCSA to support the SOI amendment and the annexation as water and sewer services are already being rendered to the Stille property through an out of agency agreement approved by the Commission on July 23, 2020.

This application, by applicants Eric and Kate Stille, was received on February 4, 2022, and would amend the EMCSA's SOI and annex one parcel totaling 5.007 acres into the District with 100% landowner consent. This parcel is adjacent to the southeast corner of El Macero and will have access to EMCSA services.

Pursuant to Government Code Section 56658(b), staff gave mailed notice that the application was received and requested information from each affected local agency, the county committee on school district organization, and each school superintendent whose school district overlies the affected territory. The notice generally described the proposal and the affected territory.
