Board Member Gaines expressed concern because the majority of
the property to be annexed crosses the floodplain. She
questioned whether the property should be annexed to Cardiff
Sanitation District or to Solana Beach Sanitation District.
District Manager Shafer stated he had spoken to LAFCO and to
. the property owner who indicated that he would be willing to
annex to the City. Unfortunately this application was already
csdmin/02-10-88 PAGE 1 Mtg. No. 88-03, Bk. 1, Page ~
-
in process and the annexation would have to be filed
separately.
. Board Member Gaines asked whether the resolution could be
conditioned that the property be annexed to the City of
Encinitas. Public Works Director August stated that would be
Staff's intention for future applications, however, this
application was not so conditioned previously. He also stated
that LAFCO had already approved the application on March 2,
1987 and that approval would expire on March 2, 1988.
Board Member Shea questioned the statement "the following
described territory in the City of Encinitas.." on the bottom
of page 3E-4 and the top of page 3E-5 in the resolution.
Public Works Director August stated this was an error, only a
portion of the property is located in the City of Encinitas.
Board Member Steel had three questions:
- Do we want to expand the Cardiff Sanitation District
across the floodplain?
- Do we have to?
- Do we only want to do it if the properties are coming
into the City of Encinitas?
. Board Member Luke suggested that a condition be added that no
sewer connection service be provided until the property was
annexed to the City of Encinitas.
District Counsel Krauel stated that this would mean the
property would have to be annexed to all the various subsidiary
districts as well.
This item was tabled for discussion later in the meeting.
4. ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS
A. Reauest from Member Gaines to Discuss Annexation and
Extension of Service Policy.
Board Member Gaines addressed the issue of how far the
District wants to go in servicing land, i. e., whether the
District wants to only service land with gravity flow (which
used to be the policy) or also to service rugged areas and
provide pump stations.
Board Member Omsted stated she wanted to know the legal
obligations of the District.
Public Works Director August stated that the current
subdivision ordinance requires all new subdivisions to have
. sewer hook-up. He also stated that the sphere of influence
goes beyond the City boundaries and into some very rugged
csdmin/02-10-88 PAGE 2 Mtg. No. 88-03, Bk. 1, Page ~
-
areas which would require pump stations if sewer service were
to be provided.
. Board Member Gaines suggested that septic systems could be
used. Public Works Director August stated that in
discussions with the Health Department they had indicated
septic tanks would not be allowed.
The Board directed that this item be brought back to a future
meeting and directed staff to provide sphere of influence maps
of the Cardiff Sanitation District and the City showing who
crea ted the sphere maps, the process to go through to adjust
the sphere maps, what the policy options of the District are in
extending lines across the floodplain; and a report from the
Health Department regarding the use of septic systems in major
subdiv1sions and lot splits, sewer v. septic, and whether
septic is possible.
Betty Knutson stated she could provide maps of the Cardiff
Sanitation District's sphere of influence.
3E. Adoption of Resolution No. 88-05. Annexina 48.9
acres. located in the vicinity of Mancheste~ Avenue
to the Cardiff Sanitation Distric¡ and 1~.38 ~cres to
the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protect'on Dis rict Thomas
Kern.
The Board directed staff to find out if the District serves
. the Stonebridge development, and what the twelve inch line on
the property is and who it serves.
This item was continued to the February 24, 1988 meeting.
B. Status Report on San Eliio Powers Authoritv.
District Manager Shafer advised the Board that Murk, consulting
enqineers, had started co-managing the plant on February 3,
1988. They were currently working in conjunction with County
staff to fully understand the complexities of the
interrelationships and all the various facets that are actually
being managed out of the plant by the County sanitation
districts. Murk had issued a comprehensive report on the
various agreements and interrelationships. In terms of the
progress of upgrading to secondary treatment, a preliminary
draft of the EIR from the environmental consultant had been
prepared and was ready for review by staff. Solana Beach had
installed a new meter at their pump station. The plant has
five months of data and after six months of data Murk will
prepare a report to be brought back to the Joint Powers Board.
The plant is operating under a contract with the County to
provide personnel to operate the plant and pump station. Murk
will be evaluating the situation to determine the best
. available method for providing the necessary labor to operate
the plant.

Board Member Gaines stated that the draft EIR indicated that
. the north portion of the Sanitation District property was not
proposed to be used for plant expansion. Therefore, it could
be available for a recycling site. She also stated that a
report from Fallbrook regarding the compatibility of sludge
with worms will be received in approximately 30 to 60 days.
