Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The Pacileo Annexation to the El Dorado Irrigation District (EID), LAFCO Project No. 2021-03, will annex one vacant 0.83-acre parcel (APN 092-060-055) into the El Dorado Irrigation District service area. The annexation triggers the requirement under the law to redistribute property tax increments applicable to the property being annexed.
In accordance with Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 99 and 99.01, negotiations have been completed regarding the redistribution of the property tax increments applicable to this parcel. EID would accept a 2.6667% share of the property tax increment. This distribution is consistent with past practice for the property tax increment for annexations into EID. Diamond Springs / El Dorado Fire's share of the property tax increment will decrease from 23.1016% to 22.0695%. El Dorado County Water Agency's share of the property tax increment will decrease from 0.9811% to 0.9373%. These increments each total a 4% proportional reduction to each agency in order to allow for an allocation to EID. The increment for the County General Fund, the County Capital Outlay Fund, the Road District, the County Water Agency, CSA 7 (EMS/Ambulance) would also decrease by 4%. Other details of the proposed exchange of tax increment are included in Attachment 1, Exhibit A.
Pursuant to the application filed with LAFCO, the purpose of the annexation is to build a single-family home on the parcel, consistent with current zoning.
ALTERNATIVES
The Board could choose an alternate distribution of property tax increments.
