CITY OF LAKEPORTCity Council
Lakeport Redevelopment AgencyCity of Lakeport Municipal Sewer District
STAFF REPORTRE: Nonrenewal of Williamson Act Contract MEETING DATE: 10/04/2011
SUBMITTED BY: Margaret Silveira, City Manager
PURPOSE OF REPORT: Information only Discussion Action Item
WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/AGENCY/BOARD:
The City Council/CLMSD Board is being asked to receive and file a Notice of Nonrenewal of a WilliamsonAct Contract for property currently held by the City of Lakeport Municipal Sewer District #1.
BACKGROUND:
The California Land Conservation Act, better known as the Williamson Act, has been the states premieragricultural land protection program since its enactment in 1965 to preserve agricultural and open spacelands by discouraging premature and unnecessary conversion to urban uses. The Act creates anarrangement whereby private landowners contract with counties and cities to voluntarily restrict their landto agricultural and compatible open-space uses. In return, restricted parcels are assessed for property taxpurposes at a rate consistent with their actual use, rather than potential market value.
Only land located within an agricultural preserve is eligible for a Williamson Act contract. Preserves areregulated by rules and restrictions and the land within the preserve is maintained for agricultural or open
space use. An agricultural preserve must consist of no less than 100 acres. However, in order to meet thisrequirement two or more parcels may be combined if they are contiguous, or if they are in commonownership.
Either the local government (in this case the County of Lake) or landowner can initiate a nonrenewalprocess. A "notice of nonrenewal" starts the nine-year nonrenewal period. During the nonrenewal process,the annual tax assessment gradually increases. At the end of the nine-year nonrenewal period, the contractis terminated.
Under a set of specifically defined circumstances, a contract may be cancelled without completing theprocess of term nonrenewal. Contract cancellation, however, involves a comprehensive review andapproval process, and the payment of a fee by the landowner equal to 12.5 percent of the full market value
of the property in question. Local activities such as eminent domain or, in some cases, city annexation alsoresult in the termination of Williamson Act contracts.
DISCUSSION:
The CLMSD currently has two parcels of property that are subject to a Williamson Act Contract (landslocated at 3715 Highway 175 and 1725 Sandy Lane). The contract has expired, and the City has receivednotice that the County does not intend to renew the contracts.
While there is a cost-saving advantage to having property under a Williamson Act contract, there are alsodisadvantages. The main disadvantage is that the landholder has restrictions in how the property can beused during the length of the contract period. Once the landowner has entered into a Williamson Act

contract, the landowner must continually maintain agricultural use of the property for crop production orgrazing land. Failure to do so could be considered a breach of contract, and the local government may seeka court injunction to enforce the terms of the contract.
The City has received a Notice of Nonrenewal of the Williamson Act Contract. While the City can make awritten protest of the notice of nonrenewal, staff recommends that this not be pursued in order to liftrestrictions on use of the properties.
OPTIONS:
Receive and file Notice with no further action or provide further direction to staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None $Unknown at this time Account Number:
Comments: There will be an increase in the property taxes paid over the next nine years.
SUGGESTED MOTIONS:
Move to receive and file the Notice of Nonrenewal of Williamson Act Contract with no further action.
Attachments: Notice of Nonrenewal of Williamson Act Contract
