WHEREAS, the County of Riverside, by its Resolution No. 94-411, adopted December

Water Conservation District, the County Of Riverside, and the Incorporated Cities of
Riverside County within the Santa Ana Region (NPDES No. CAS 618033); and,
WHEREAS, under the NPDES Permit, the City is required to monitor, inspect, and
clean the City’s storm drainage system so as to prevent unautho rized and potentially
hazardous discharge into the San Jacinto River as a tributary to the Sa nta Ana River
and to carry out programs and activities to maintain compliance with the NPDES Permit;
and,
WHEREAS, the City, by Resolution No.95-16, adopted on March 21, 1995, established
the annual assessment of $4.26 per Benefit Assessment Unit for funding CSA -152; and,
WHEREAS, City costs to inspect, clean, and maintain all of its MS4 systems continually
increase; and,
WHEREAS, since the initiation of the original NPDES Permit issued by the Santa Ana
Regional Board on July 13, 1990, each subsequent NPDES Permit renewal, which has
occurred generally on five-year terms, has increased the regulatory obligations imposed
upon the City in the implementation of the Permit, and the next NPDES Permit is
anticipated to increase the regulatory compliance requirements imposed on the City
during the next permit term; and
WHEREAS, the City, by Resolution No.3564, adopted on April 7, 2015, raised the
annual assessment from $4.26 to $10.00 per Benefit Assessment Unit for funding CSA -
