CITY PROJECT NO. P A04-0544 [ALVAREZ PROPERTIES]
Dear Ms. Damko:
Please be advised that the above-referenced property is located within the
boundaries of Rancho California Water District (RCWD). Water service,
therefore, would be available upon construction of any required on-site and/or
off-site water facilities and the completion of financial arrangements between
RCWD and the property owner. If fire protection is required, the customer will
need to contact RCWD for fees and requirements,
Water availability would be contingent upon the property owner signing an
Agency Agreement that assigns water management rights, if any, to RCWD. All
on-site public water facilities will require public utility easements in favor of
RCWD.
This project has the potential to become a commercial condominium
development, with individual building owners and an owners' association
maintaining the common property and private water, fire protection, and
landscape irrigation facilities. As a condition of approval for the project, RCWD
requires that the City include a Reciprocal Easement and Maintenance
Agreement for these on-site private water facilities. In addition to this
agreement, RCWD would require individual water meters for each
condominium unit.
If you should have any questions, please contact an Engineering Services
Representative at this office.
Sincerely,
RANCHO CALIFORNIA WATER DISTRICT
