RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF MORRO BAY, CALIFORNIA,
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO APPLY FOR STATE
REVOLVING FUND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, AND AUTHORIZING THE
EXECUTION OF SUCH AGREEMENT, AND ANY OTHER ACTION
REQUIRED, FOR PURPOSES OF THE CLEAN WATER STATE
REVOLVING FUND GRANT
THE CITY COUNCIL
City of Morro Bay, California
WHEREAS, on September 13, 2022, the City of Morro Bay (the "City") City Council
authorized the City Manager to execute a Cost Share Agreement with Rancho Colina Mutual
Water Company (Rancho Colina) to fund the preparation of Clean Water State Revolving Fund
Planning Grant application for the Rancho Colina Consolidation Evaluation Project; and
WHEREAS, if awarded, then the Planning Grants will provide the funding necessary to
complete the wastewater utility consolidation feasibility evaluation, design of Rancho Colina
wastewater connections, and necessary upgrades to City wastewater infrastructure (via
OneWater projects) and application for the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF)
Construction Grant; and
WHEREAS, Rancho Colina is located on Highway 41, approximately a 1/2 mile east of
the existing City jurisdictional limits and provides water, wastewater, and other services for
approximately 69 Mobile Homes and 57 Recreational Vehicle (RV) camping sites; and
WHEREAS, Rancho Colina's Wastewater Treatment Facility is in need of significant
upgrades and repairs to meet the requirements of the new General Permit for wastewater
treatment facilities discharging <100,000 gallons per day; and
WHEREAS, the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) has contacted the City
regarding the potential for Rancho Colina to connect to the City's wastewater utilities. Due to the
fact Rancho Colina provides wastewater services to the Rancho Colina Mobile home community,
which is classified as a Disadvantaged Community, there is significant grant funding available in
the CWSRF (up to $10M) programs to pay for infrastructure upgrades to the City's wastewater
systems to accommodate increased flows from Rancho Colina in addition to connections to
Rancho Colina; and
WHEREAS, connecting Rancho Colina to the City's wastewater system may allow the
City to access CWSRF funding to reduce the costs to the City's rate payers for funding other
necessary City projects; and
WHEREAS, this authorizing resolution makes minor updates to the previous Authorizing
Resolution 51-23, adopted on the 8th day of August 2023.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
MORRO BAY, AS FOLLOWS:
