February 4, 2013 9. RESOLUTION NO. 13-002, A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE

WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY REGIONAL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY APPROVING THE PURCHASE OF TAX DEFAULT PROPERTY FROM THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE TAX COLLECTOR’S OFFICE

Brian Beck, Land Acquisition Analyst, reported that every year the County Tax Collector’s

Office notifies public agencies of its intent to sell tax default properties. Public agencies are given the right of first refusal to review the parcel list to determine if any of the parcels meet the public agencies’ goals and objectives. Staff has reviewed the list and identified fourteen (14) properties that are desirable for habitat conservation and meet the MSHCP goals by contributing to reserve assembly. He then showed the location and provided a description of the properties. The total acreage of the properties is approximately 447.52 acres for $793,420.38 ($1,773/acre).

Jeff Stone commented that this year, the Tax Collector’s Office has posted the list of tax

default properties and will conduct an on-line public auction. In accordance with the law, public agencies have a right of first refusal to purchase the tax-defaulted properties. He spoke about the benefits of taking advantage of purchasing the properties, especially the properties that are adjacent to public lands already in conservation and contributing toward reserve assembling and the MSHCP goal of conserving 153,000 acres.

Tom Fuhrman questioned the number of years of unpaid property taxes before a property

is placed on auction block and whether other charges are added to the tax bill, i.e., unpaid trash bills, are included in the purchase price. Brian Beck responded that a property is placed on the auction block after five (5) years of unpaid taxes and after going through the County process, including approval by the Board of Supervisors.

In response to Jim Hyatt’s question as to the outcome of the tax default properties that the

RCA approved to purchase last year, Brian Beck said that the tax default properties approved by the RCA Board for purchase last year were redeemed. The tax default properties approved in 2011 are still in the process for purchase. Staff anticipates receiving an invoice from the Tax Collector’s Office in the spring and close of escrow by the end of the fiscal year. Mr. Beck noted, however, that the property owner still has the right to redeem the property until the process is finalized.

Tim Brown asked how the prices of the properties are determined and Brian Beck said that

the purchase price, which includes back taxes and penalties, is set by the Tax Collector’s Office.

M/S/C (STONE/HYATT) to approve Resolution No. 13-002, A Resolution of the Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority Approving the Purchase of Tax Default Property from the County of Riverside Tax Collector’s Office. Abstain: Brown


February 4, 2013 10. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT Charlie Landry, Executive Director, reported on the following items: 10.1 Loan Program Update

Staff and its consultants are working toward adding the loan program in the Water Infrastructure Financing Innovation Authority (WIFIA) component of the Water Resource Development Act legislation. He briefed the RCA Board on the meetings held with senior staff of the Senate Committee of Environmental Public Works and Senator Barbara Boxer’s Office, the Director of Governmental Affairs with Ducks Unlimited, the California Institute for Federal Policy Research, and the Assistant Secretary for Defense for Civil Works.

10.2 Incoming Board and Alternate Member Orientation

An RCA orientation and TAP processing was held this morning, and there were fourteen (14) incoming RCA Board and Alternate members in attendance.

11. LAND ACQUISITION UPDATE

Brian Beck reported that since the last RCA Board meeting, two properties were added totaling approximately 105 acres bringing the reserve total to 45,849 acres. He then showed the location of the recently acquired properties.

12. ITEMS FOR NEXT MEETING

A) Scott Miller requested a discussion regarding a letter of support to RCTC’s initiative seeking CEQA Reform to the Governor’s Office.

B) Tom Fuhrman requested a discussion on public use policy on RCA properties. This request is as a result of an incident wherein the public was denied access to an RCA property.

13. CLOSED SESSION ITEM

Michelle Ouellette, Legal Counsel, announced the Closed Session item. Chairman Ashley adjourned the meeting to Closed Session.

MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee

Annual CPI Adjustment



MSHCP LOCAL DEVELOPMENT MITIGATION FEE ANNUAL CPI ADJUSTMENT

Staff Contact: Charles Landry Executive Director (951) 955-9700

Background:

The MSHCP calls for an annual CPI adjustment to local development mitigation fees collected to fund the implementation of the Plan. Fee ordinances adopted by the County and Cities reflect this requirement. Each year, the RCA staff informs the County and Cities of the CPI adjustment and asks them to adjust their fee accordingly. Based on the CPI increase from December 2011 to December 2012, MSHCP fees would increase 1.932% effective July 1, 2013. The attached spreadsheet shows the current fees and the fees effective July 1, 2013 if the RCA were to implement the increase. If RCA elects not to implement the CPI adjustment, staff estimates a possible loss of revenue of approximately $110,000 for Fiscal Year 2014. Given the current economy and the Nexus Study update that is underway, staff is recommending not implementing the CPI adjustment to the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fees for FY 2013-14. RCA has not adjusted fees for the last four fiscal years. Executive Committee and Staff Recommendation:

That the RCA Board of Directors approve not implementing the CPI adjustment for MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fees for Fiscal Year 2013-14

Report Covers Period: 10/01/12 – 12/31/12

Fiscal Year 2013 Contract Amount: $67,500

Services Provided During Current Work Period: These key issues were on the government affairs agenda from October to December 2012: 1. Designation of critical habitat within the MSHCP for the Santa Ana Sucker and other species; 2. Pursuit of federal legislation to provide loans and loan guarantees for HCP land acquisition; 3. Federal funding for habitat acquisition; Critical Habitat Designations Progress continues on removing critical habitat designations (CHDs) within MSHCP land. In December, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) finalized a CHD for the Riverside Fairy Shrimp that did not include MSHCP land. Albeit slowly, USFWS has remained faithful to the commitments they made to us on this issue. I continue to work with local agencies that have sued the federal government to rescind the critical habitat designation for the Santa Ana Sucker (SAS). This group is appealing a District Court ruling that kept the CHD in place and the Ninth Circuit Court recently accepted the appeal. In the meantime, the local agencies are taking initial steps to develop an HCP to cover the SAS and perhaps other species. I arranged a meeting with Charlie Landry and the General Managers for Western Municipal Water District and San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District to help kick off that process. Whatever occurs, we will work with USFWS to forestall any potential ill effects of the SAS CHD. Loan Legislation The 112th Congress did not pass our loan legislation (H.R. 1907/S. 826). Senator Dianne Feinstein and Representative Ken Calvert will re-introduce these bills in the 113th Congress. If this legislation is to move, it is likely to do so as part of a larger package, so we continue looking at options for a bill that could carry our proposal. Staff for Senator Barbara Boxer suggested we consider the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA). WRDA is a “must-pass” bill that goes through the Committee Senator Boxer chairs, so her support is welcome. Our bill may struggle to gain traction in the current budget climate because it is a new program, but we will continue to build support among infrastructure and environmental groups to help us push it across the goal line. Federal Funding for Habitat Acquisition You will recall that the House Interior Appropriations Committee included $14.13 million for Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund, with over $11 million of that dedicated to HCP acquisition grants. By comparison, last year’s House bill called for just $2.85 million and no new HCP acquisition grants. The Senate is proposing $47.5 million.

2

The current fiscal year ends on March 27, 2013. That day is also the deadline for Congress and the White House to come to an agreement on a scheduled budget sequester. If they fail to do so, there will be an eight (8) percent across the board cut to most federal discretionary accounts, including ours. There likely would also be a partial government shutdown. In October, we visited USFWS offices in Sacramento to discuss this issue with the agency’s regional leadership. At that meeting it was clear support for habitat acquisition grants from Sacramento-based USFWS staff is tepid at best. As a result, our efforts to secure support for the program from Washington are paramount. We have achieved some success there and will look to build on it in the coming months. As always, it is a pleasure to serve RCA as your full-service government affairs consultant. If this report brings rise to any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Dave Kennett at 202-320-1290.

Modification to Land Acquisition Policy 1.13

STAFF REPORT March 11, 2013 Agenda Item No. 9


MODIFICATION TO LAND ACQUISITION POLICY 1.13

Staff Contact: Honey Bernas Director of Administrative Services

(951) 955-2842

Background:

The MSHCP allows property owners who do not intend to file a development application, to nevertheless submit their properties for evaluation and possible acquisition under the HANS process. Under pages 6-17 and 6-18 of the MSHCP, a priority list is to be established for properties that fall within this category. The Plan also provides that a separate designated fund be created to purchase properties on this priority list. Land Acquisition Policy 1.13 states that no more than one percent (1%) of Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Local Development Mitigation Fees received, shall be set aside for the purchase of properties on this priority list. This policy also states that the funding level shall be reviewed annually.

The proposed modification to Policy 1.13 deletes reference to the specific percentage, and instead clarifies that the amount of funding shall continue to be reviewed annually and that the amount will be established by the Board of Directors. This will eliminate the need to amend the policy every year, but instead establish the funding amount by an annual Board action. Additionally, the Executive Committee and staff reviewed the funding level at the February 20, 2013 Executive Committee meeting and recommend that the funding level be increased to three percent (3%) to facilitate the acquisition of current and future properties on the priority list.

Executive Committee and Staff Recommendations:

That the RCA Board of Directors:

1) Approve the modification to the Land Acquisition Policies Section 1.13; and

2) Direct staff to set aside no more than three percent (3%) of Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Local Development Mitigation Fees received effective July 1, 2013, to purchase priority list properties under Section 1.13.
