FIGONE, TOWN MANAGER SUBJECT: HEARING TO CONSIDER PROTESTS CONCERNING THE REORGANIZATION OF INHABITED TERRITORY TO THE TOWN OF LOS GATOS KNOWN AS ARNERICH ROAD NO. 1 RECOMMENDATION: Hold the hearing; 2. Close the hearing; 3 Set Monday, February 6, 2006 as the date to adopt a resolution making a finding of the value of protests filed and not withdrawn. No further action or decision needs to be made at the January 17, 2006 meeting. BACKGROUND: Section 56757 of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 gives the cities in Santa Clara County the authority to annex territory without application to and hearing bythe Santa Clara County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO). The process is initiated by the Town after the property owners file an annexation petition, which has occurred. The initiating process announces the intention of the Town to annex territory and provides for noticing of affected residents by publishing, posting, and mailing notices. The notice of intention to annex territory is delivered a minimum of 15 days in advance of the hearing. The hearing should be no sooner than 30 days and no more than 45 days from the date of the resolution initiating the proceedings. Resolution 2005-125, setting the date of the hearing, was adopted on December 5, 2005. This act also requires the Town to hold a "protest proceeding" if the area proposed for annexation is inhabited, even if all of the property owners have consented to the annexation.

There are two small parcels that were pre- zoned RC (Resource Conservation), since they are under a Williamson Act contract. However, Santa Clara County has filed notices of non-renewal on them since they are too small to be used for agriculture. The Williamson Act contract expires in about 5 years. This area encompasses 79 acres of land and contains 16 parcels. All of the property owners and registered voters have signed the petition for annexation (Attachment 2). The annexation territory is at the far southeasterly edge of the Town's USA boundary. Unless the USA boundary were to be adjusted, no additional annexations can take place southerly of this area. Pursuant to annexation law, Council will need to take one of the following actions at the meting scheduled for February 6, 2006 based on the protests filed and not withdrawn by the close of the January 17, 2006 public hearing: 1. Order the change of organization without an election if written protests have been filed and not withdrawn by less than 25 percent of the registered voters or less than 25 percent of the number of owners of land owning less than 25 percent of the assessed value of land within the affected territory. 2. Order the change of organization, subject to confirmation by an election if written protests have been filed and not withdrawn by more than 25 percent but less than 50 percent of the registered voters residing within the territory, or more than 25 percent but less than 50 percent of the owners of land owning more than 25 percent of the assessed value of land within the affected territory. 3. Terminate the proceeding if a majority protest exists in accordance with Section 57078 of the Government Code. CONCLUSION: Residents in this area have petitioned to be annexed to the Town of Los Gatos. Annexation of the area is consistent with the Town policy of annexing areas contiguous to the Town to enable proper planning and the provision of municipal services. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS: This action is a prof ect as defined under CEQA but is statutorily exempt under Section 15061(b)(3). FISCAL IMPACT: The following fees are assessed by Santa Clara County, LAFCO and the State Board of Equalization, have been paid by the chief petitioner: NAB&MCOUNCII.
