A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS
ADOPTING PROVISIONS PERTAINING TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF
MEASURE "U" FOR CITY WATER OR SEWER UTILITY CONNECTIONS
TO DEVELOPMENT OUTSIDE THE CITY LIMITS OF THE CITY OF
REDLANDS WITHIN THE ADOPTED SPHERE OF INFLUENCE
WHEREAS, Measure "U", a voter-approved initiative ordinance, was approved on
November 11, 1997, establishing principals of managed development; and
WHEREAS, the results of the election were certified on December 2, 1997, and Measure
"U" took effect on December 12, 1997; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has held a workshop pertaining to the implementation of
Measure "U" on May 5, 1998, that was open to the public; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed, discussed and provided direction on the
implementation of Measure "U";
NOW, THEREFORE, BE 1T RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Redlands as
follows:
Section 1. The above mentioned recitals are true and correct.
Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered issues pertaining to the
implementation of Measure "U" for City water or sewer utility connections to development outside
the city limits of the City of Redlands within the adopted sphere of influence and implements the
following measures:
A. The City Council finds that General Plan standards and policies for inside City
development are equally applicable to outside City development as a condition of
extension of outside City utility service, including those amendments to the General
PIan contained in Measure U.
B. The City Council finds that the preparation of a Socio-Economic Study is required
with the application for a pre-annexation agreement for development projects whose
property is not contiguous to the city limits of the City of Redlands, subject to the
City Council adopting a General Plan Amendment to add pre-annexation
agreements to the list of development projects that are subject to these studies, and
to establish more definition as to which projects the requirement would be applied
to.
C. The City Council finds that the amounts due for an outside City development
project to enter into a pre-annexation agreement with the City, under the covenants
established in such a pre-annexation agreement, are to be calculated as if they were
capital improvement and other development fees which would be applicable to the
property if it were within the City limits at the time of extension of City provided
utility services, and that the charges are to be paid when utility services are
extended.
D. The City Council finds that the City's definition of the point at which an outside
City development project has a vested right and is exempt from Measure U, is at
the point at which the development project has relied upon a pre-annexation
agreement and has expended monies for construction of water and sewer utility
infrastructure.
ADOPTED, SIGNED AND APPROVED this 19`x' day of May, 1998,
WILL AM E. CU NGHA4
Mayor of the City of Redlands
