Document Description
The Santa Clara Valley Water District is considering the passage of Proposed Ordinance 06-_ (Ordinance), the repeal of existing ordinance 83-2 and passage of a Resolution adopting the District's Water Resources Protection Manual (Manual). Draft Ordinance 06-_ would revise and repeal Ordinance 83-2, which was last revised in 1985, and would establish a process to obtain Encroachment Permits for Modifications on District Facilities and/or District Easements. It also establishes a procedure for the administration and issuance of such Encroachment Permits. Proposed Ordinance 06-_ repeals Ordinance 83-2, under which the District required and issued permits for certain activities on certain streamside parcels throughout Santa Clara County. The permit function exercised under 83-2 will now be carried out by the local municipality in which the project is located. Any agency who exercises the permitting authority will carry out the requirements of CEQA on a project specific basis. The Resolution would adopt the District's Water Resources Protection Manual (Manual), which would serve as the basis for the District's evaluation of Encroachment Permit applications. The Manual implements the model guidelines and standards recommended by the Santa Clara Valley Water Resources Protection Collaborative following a review of the District's existing regulations.
