SENATE BILL 946
Request for Legislative Support
The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) Board of
Directors is comprised of 25 members, representing
municipalities, water and wastewater agencies throughout
North and Central Orange County. The City of Yorba Linda
held a seat on the OCSD Board of Directors to represent
ratepayers within the City of Yorba Linda. However, in 2010
the City of Yorba Linda transferred sewer service and
responsibility to the Yorba Linda Water District through a
formal agreement. In addition to transferring service and
responsibility to the Yorba Linda Water District, the City also
agreed to relinquish the OCSD Board seat to the Water
District.
By mutual agreement of all parties involved including the
OCSD, the City of Yorba Linda and the Yorba Linda Water
District, the OCSD seeks to amend the District Act to
substitute the Board seat held by the City of Yorba Linda to
allow representation for the residents of Yorba Linda by the
Yorba Linda Water District. Senator Huff (R -33) agreed to
author the bill. SB 946, introduced on February 5, 2014, will
provide for the appropriate legislative amendment to the
OCSD District Act to allow formal representation by the Yorba
Linda Water District for the purposes described above.
The Orange County Sanitation District would appreciate your
formal support for this legislation. A letter of support is
attached. Should you have questions, please contact Jim
Herberg at 714 - 962 -2411 or Heather Stratman at 949 -399-
9050.

SENATE BILL No. 946
Introduced by Senator Huff
February 5, 2014
An act to amend Section 4730.65 of the Health and Safety Code,
relating to community facilities.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 946, as introduced, Huff. Community facilities: consolidated
sanitation district.
Under the Community Facilities Law of 1911, the governing body
of a consolidated sanitation district located in Orange County, which
has been formed under specified circumstances, is composed of one
member of the city council of each city located wholly or partially
within the district's boundaries, as specified, one member of the county
board of supervisors, one member of the governing body of each sanitary
district, as specified, and one member of the governing body of a public
agency empowered to and engaged in the collection, transportation,
treatment, or disposal of sewage, as specified.
This bill would revise the governing body of a consolidated sanitation
district located in Orange County to instead include one member of the
city council of each city, except the City of Yorba Linda, as specified,
one member of the county board of supervisors, one member of the
governing body of each sanitary district, as specified, one member of
the governing body of a public agency empowered to and engaged in
the collection, transportation, treatment, or disposal of sewage, as
specified, and one member of the governing body of the Yorba Linda
Water District.
This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the
necessity of a special statute for the consolidated sanitation district in

Orange County, the City of Yorba Linda, and the Yorba Linda Water
District.

1 SECTION 1. Section 4730.65 of the Health and Safety Code
2 is amended to read:
3 4730.65. (a) Notwithstanding Sections 4730, 4730.1 and
4 4730.2, or any other provision of law, a sanitation district in Orange
5 County, that has been created by the consolidation, pursuant to the
6 Cortese -Knox- Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act
7 of 2000 (Division 3 (commencing with Section 56000) of Title 5
8 of the Government Code), of one or more sanitation districts,
9 originally established pursuant to Section 4730, and one or more
10 sanitation districts, originally established pursuant to Section
11 4730. 1, shall be referred to, for purposes of this section only, as a
12 consolidated sanitation district and the governing body shall be
13 constituted in accordance with subdivision (b).
14 (b) The governing body of the consolidated sanitation district
15 shall be a board of directors composed of all of the following:
16 (1) One member of the city council of each city located wholly
17 or partially within the district's boundaries, except the City of
18 Yorba Linda, provided, however, a city within the consolidated
19 district, the sewered portion of which city lies entirely within
20 another sanitary district, shall have no representation on the board.
21 (2) One member of the county board of supervisors.
22 (3) One member of the governing body of each sanitary district,
23 the whole or part of which is included in the consolidated sanitation
24 district.
25 (4) One member of the governing body of a public agency
26 empowered to and engaged in the collection, transportation,
27 treatment, or disposal of sewage and which was a member agency
28 of a sanitation district consolidated into a consolidated sanitation
29 district.
30 (5) One member of the governing body of the Yorba Linda Water
31 District.
32 (c) The governing body of the county and each city, sanitary
33 district, and public agency that is a member agency having a
99

— 3 — SB 946
1 representative on the board of directors of the consolidated
2 sanitation district, may designate one of its members to act in the
3 place of its regular member in his or her absence or his or her
4 inability to act.
5 (d) No action shall be taken at any meeting of the consolidated
6 district's board of directors unless a majority of all authorized
7 members of the board of directors is in attendance.
8 (e) A majority of the members of the board of directors present
9 shall be required to approve or otherwise act on any matter except
10 as otherwise required by law.
11 SEC. 2. The Legislature finds and declares that a special law
12 is necessary and that a general law cannot be made applicable
13 within the meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California
14 Constitution because of the special circumstances surrounding the
15 change in composition of the governing body of the consolidated
16 sanitation district in Orange County resulting from the transfer of
17 sanitation duties from the City ofYorba Linda to the Yorba Linda
18 Water District.

Subject: Amendments to the District's Conflict of Interest Code
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
That the Committee recommend the Board of Directors approve Resolution No. 14 -XX Adopting a
Conflict of Interest Code for the Yorba Linda Water District.
DISCUSSION:
The Political Reform Act requires every local government agency to notify its code reviewing body
(in YLWD's case this is the Orange County Board of Supervisors) when its Conflict of Interest code
requires amendment. Staff recently reviewed the District's code and has identified the following
minor revisions:
• The position of Associate Engineer was added.
• The position of Project Engineer was renamed to Construction Project Supervisor.
• The position of Operations Assistant was renamed to Operations /Warehouse Assistant.
• The position of Chief Plant Operator was renamed to Water Production Superintendent.
The attached exhibits reflect these modifications and will be sent to legal counsel for review along
with the associated resolution.
PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S):
The Conflict of Interest Code for the District was last amended on October 25, 2012 by Resolution
No. 12 -26.

RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OF THE YORBA LINDA WATER DISTRICT

seq. ( "the Act "), requires a local government agency to adopt a Conflict of
Interest Code pursuant to the Act; and
WHEREAS, the Yorba Linda Water District has previously adopted a Conflict of
Interest Code and that Code now requires updating; and
WHEREAS, amendments to the Act have in the past and foreseeably will in the future
require conforming amendments to be made to the Conflict of Interest
Code; and
WHEREAS, the Fair Political Practices Commission has adopted a regulation, Title 2,
California Code of Regulations, Section 18730, which contains terms for a
standard model Conflict of Interest Code, which, together with
amendments thereto, may be adopted by public agencies and

minimizing the actions required of such agencies to keep their codes in
conformity with the Political Reform Act.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Directors of the Yorba Linda
Water District as follows:
Section 1. The terms of Title 2, California Code of Regulations, Section 18730 and
any amendments to it duly adopted by the Fair Political Practices
Commission are hereby incorporated by reference and, together with
Exhibits A and B in which positions are designated and disclosure
categories are set forth, constitute the Conflict of Interest Code of the
Yorba Linda Water District.
Section 2. The provisions of all Conflict of Interest Codes and Amendments thereto
previously adopted by the Yorba Linda Water District are hereby
superseded.
Section 3. The Filing Officer is hereby authorized to submit the updated Conflict of
Interest Code to the Clerk of the Orange County Board of Supervisors for

N/A
The Board recently approved an Agreement with the City of Placentia for the Joint Turf
Replacement Demonstration Project. Based on recent discussions with MWDOC staff, MWDOC will
allow YLWD to receive benefit of its Turf Removal Program, even though YLWD is not currently
participating in the program. The benefit received will be $1 per square foot for grass removed and
replaced with artificial turf.
Now that the MWDOC Program includes a rebate for replacement with artificial turf, the Committee
may wish to revisit participating in the program District -wide. While the District did participate in the
2010 trial program, the Board opted out of participating in the full program since artificial turf was not
included in the program.. Recently, this restriction was lifted.
Should the District wish to participate, a new Agreement with MWDOD will be available in May, for
execution July 1, 2014.
DISCUSSION:
The Turf Removal Rebate Program would run as a partnership between the YLWD and MWDOC .
The program components include:
• A minimum of 250 sq ft and a maximum of 10,000 sq ft of turf must be removed
• Projects must not be started prior to the acceptance of the application
• The converted area cannot include any live turf, though synthetic turf is now allowed.
• If a watering system is used, it must be either a drip or bubbler system. Weather -based
irrigation systems or rotating nozzles are not allowed
• All exposed soil must be covered with a 2 " -3" layer of mulch
• Converted area must be permeable to air and water (no concrete)
If YLWD choses to participate, it will be necessary for District staff to perform the pre- and post -
renovations inspection at each site. YLWD meter - reading staff was trained for this function in 2010.
Additionally, the City of Yorba Linda requires that all front and side lawns "be landscaped and
consist primarily of plant materials." Per the City's Community Preservation Department, this
ordinance is interpreted to mean as at least 51 % plants. A traditional lawn is not required. In
addition to the $1 per sq ft of MWDOC- administered money, each member agency is also allowed
to match the funding. Currently, YLWD has budgeted $5,000 (in both FY13/14 and FY14/15) for
other rebate programs, including SmarTimers and rotating nozzles.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
CP 2 -A: Provide Financial Incentives and Rebates for Water Use Efficiency
PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S):
On September 23, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized participation in the trial Turf Removal
Program. In 2011, the Board of Directors declined to participate in the full Turf Removal Program.

COUNTY Frequently Asked Questions
What is the current state of the Program?
The funding availability for the current fiscal year (July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014) has been increased to $1.00 per
square foot as of October 1, 2013. Additional funding may be provided by your local retail water provider. Please
click here to see if you are eligible for additional funding.
Can I apply for the Turf Removal Program if I have already removed my turfgrass and /or completed my project?
No. MWDOC must be able to gather an accurate measurement of live, well- maintained turfgrass during the pre -
inspection. If it is not there, an accurate measurement cannot be obtained.
What if my turfgrass is already dead?
Your turfgrass must be alive- and -well during the time of the mandatory pre- inspection. In order to be eligible for
the turf removal rebate program, all proposed turfgrass removal areas must be well- maintained (free of weeds,
dirt patches, etc.) and irrigated with an in- ground irrigation system. Any proposed turfgrass removal areas that do
not fall within the guidelines of the turf removal rebate program will be denied eligibility.
Can I replace my live turfgrass with a synthetic or artificial turf?
Yes. Synthetic or artificial turf can replace your turfgrass removal area so long as it is installed correctly and the
project area is permeable to air and water.
Is it possible to be denied my rebate after my project has been completed?
Yes. In very few cases, projects have been denied a rebate due to the installation of impermeable surfaces such as
concrete and pavers that have been grout /cement filled or installed incorrectly. Additionally, projects that re-
installed otherturfgrass after removing their original turfgrass have also been denied. Please read the Program
Process and Terms & Conditions before submitting your application.
What is considered "permeable to air and water"?
If at anytime water is applied to your final turf removal project area (either by a water hose or precipitation), tlAn
that water must not leave the project area as runoff. The water should be able to seep down into the ground and
not pool on or flow off of the surface.
Can I replace my turfgrass removal project area with a swimming pool or other water containing
No. A swimming pool or other water containing fixtures (fountains, ponds, etc.) are considered imf
therefore not eligible for a rebate.
Are extensions beyond the 60 -day deadline allowed?
Request for extensions will be evaluated on a case by case basis. Factors
include the project's progress, expected completion date, reasons for the delay, and
proximity to the turf removal program end date.
What if I removed more turf than was approved in my Notice to Proceed?
You will only receive up to the amount indicated on your Notice to Proceed. Any additional
square footage beyond the reserved amount will not be considered for rebate due to
program funding limitations.

Participation Process
Please read carefully through the instructions and guidelines below.
PARTICIPATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. PLEASE NOTE: Projects that are underway or are already completed prior to receiving a
Notice to Proceed are not eligible. Applications are processed in the order in which they are
received. This offer will be distributed on a first -come, first served basis while funding lasts.
2. Please
fill out all
fields of
the application and submit it, along with a copy of your recent water
bill and
a simple
site plan,
to:
Turf Removal Program
c/o Municipal Water District of Orange County
P.O. Box 20895
Fountain Valley, CA 92728 -0895
Each applicant must include a simple site plan of the area to be removed with their
application submittal.
3. After we receive your application and establish eligibility under the guidelines of the Program,
you will be contacted within two weeks to schedule a mandatory Pre -Turf Removal Site
Inspection. Projects that do not establish eligibility will have their applications returned along
with a Participant Denial Letter. Not all Projects submitted will be approved.
4. You must provide the inspectors full access to the proposed Project site during daylight hours,
Monday thru Friday. Once your Pre -Turf Removal Site Inspection is complete, the results will
be forwarded to the Program Administrator for review. If your site qualifies for the Program, a
Notice to Proceed will be mailed /e- mailed out to you within three (3) business days. Upon
receipt of this Notice to Proceed, you may begin your Project. You will have sixty (60) days
from receipt of the Notice to complete the work.
• As soon as all work is complete, you must contact the Program Administrator via e-mail at
sramirez(a)mwdoc.com to indicate that the work is completed. The Program Administrator will
then make arrangements to schedule the mandatory Post -Turf Removal Site Inspection. You
must again provide the inspectors with full access to the Project site during daylight hours,
Monday thru Friday. At the time of your Post -Turf Removal Site Inspection, you must submit to
the inspector copies of all invoices and /or receipts showing any costs incurred during the Project.
Costs include materials, dumping fees, design work, etc. Labor costs will be reimbursed
if, and only if, a licensed contractor was hired. If you perform the turf removal work
yourself, labor costs are not reimbursable. Rebate amount is not to exceed overall project
cost.
5. The Post -Turf Removal Site Inspection shall establish the following:
• The removal site does not include any live turf.
• The water system, if any, is a low flow system (drip, bubblers, or high efficiency, low
precipitation rotating nozzles). If part of a lawn is converted, the sprinkler system must
be properly modified to provide adequate coverage to the remaining lawn without
spraying the converted area.
• All exposed soil is covered with a 2 -3" layer of mulch (acceptable mulch includes
compost, bark, wood chip, decomposed granite, river rock), except in areas planted with
Ver 3 08/13/13
creeping or rooting groundcovers.
• Converted area is permeable to air and water. In order to determine your turf removal
project area is permeable, water may be directly applied to the area for up to 3 minutes.
Weed barriers must be permeable. Concrete, plastic sheeting, or other impermeable
surfaces do not qualify for incentives under the Program. Grout and /or mortar are not
considered permeable and will disqualify the site from the rebate program if installed.
Pavers or bricks that are sand filled and /or spaced sufficiently to allow air and water to
pass through can be included in your conversion area so long as all program
requirements have been met.
• No invasive plant species are used. Click on the link below for more information.
