Agendas and Minutes
In 1963, the California Legislature responded to the urban boundary wars, and the problem of public finance and service they created, by enacting the Local Agency Formation Commissions (LAFCOs). This law established a commission in each county responsible for overseeing most forms of local government boundary change, including incorporation, annexations, and special district formations. In the interest of more orderly development, LAFCOs were to act as judges of boundary disputes among governments and communities. Since 1963, numerous changes have been made to the law, culminating in the current Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Act of 2000, operative January 1, 2001.

NEXT, THE COMMISSIONERS… Each California county has a Local Agency Formation Commission. These were formed by the California Legislature in 1963 in response to urban boundary wars and the disappearance of agricultural lands, to promote more orderly development. While their responsibilities have expanded over the years, Commissions generally have the following makeup*: Two City Members (selected by the cities in that county) Two County Members (selected by the Board of Supervisors Two Special District Members (elected by independent special districts in that county) One Public Member (selected by the other six LAFCO Commissioners) Alternate members—one in each category—are also appointed and vote whenever a regular member is absent or disqualified from participating. All members serve four-year terms. *Twenty-eight LAFCOs do not have Special District Members. Others have extra City Members, and at least one LAFCO has no City Members. For a listing of current Contra Costa LAFCO Commissioners please go to the Commissioners and Staff page . Regular meetings are at 1:30 PM, generally on the second Wednesday of each month, in the Board of Supervisors Chambers in Martinez. The public can attend meetings and give testimony. …AND THE STAFF The Commission’s appointed Executive Officer conducts its day-to-day business, prepares staff reports and recommendations on proposals submitted to LAFCO, hires and supervises LAFCO staff, and consults with Legal Counsel, also appointed by the Commission, on matters as necessary. For a listing of current Contra Costa LAFCO Staff please go to the Commissioners and Staff page . REGULATORY POWERS AND DUTIES… LAFCO is a regulatory agency charged by the State legislature with “discouraging urban sprawl and encouraging the orderly formation and development of local agencies” based on “local circumstances and conditions.” To meet its responsibilities, LAFCO reviews and approves or denies proposals to: Annex land to cities or special districts, Detach land from cities or special districts, Consolidate two or more cities or two or more special districts, Form new special districts and incorporate new cities, Dissolve special districts and disincorporate cities, Merge cities and special districts, Allow cities or special districts to provide services outside of their boundaries. SPHERES OF INFLUENCE… LAFCO is charged by the State Legislature to determine and update at least every five years the “sphere of influence” of each city and special district. A sphere of influence is a plan for the probable physical boundaries and service area of a local agency. Factors that LAFCO must consider in determining spheres of influence are: The present and planned land uses, including agricultural and open space lands, The present and probable needs for public facilities and services in the area, The present capacity of public facilities and adequacy of public services that the agency provides or is authorized to provide, The existence of any social or economic communities of interest in the area if the Commission determines that they are relevant to the agency. LAFCO is required to review and update spheres of influence every five years. AUTHORITY TO CONDUCT STUDIES AND INITIATE CHANGES… The Commission is authorized to inventory and study governmental agencies. In updating spheres of influence LAFCO must prepare Municipal Service Reviews of relevant local agencies and services. Based upon the spheres of influence or special studies, the Commission may initiate proposals to consolidate special districts, merge a special district with a city, dissolve a special district, establish a subsidiary district or any combination of these changes. FACTORS LAFCO MUST CONSIDER… While LAFCO cannot impose conditions that directly regulate land use or subdivision requirements it must consider specific factors when it reviews a proposal. These factors include but are not limited to: Land area and land use, topography, natural boundaries and drainage basins, population, population density, and proximity to other populated areas, Likelihood of significant growth in the area and in adjacent incorporated and unincorporated areas during the next ten years, Effect of the proposed action and of alternate actions on adjacent areas, mutual social and economic interests, and the local governmental structure, Need for organized community services, the present cost and adequacy, and probable future needs for governmental services and controls in the area, Probable effects of the proposal and of alternatives on the cost and adequacy of services and controls in the area and adjacent areas, Ability of the entity to provide services to the area, including the sufficiency of revenues for those services, Timely availability of water supplies adequate for projected needs, Extent to which the proposal will assist the entity in achieving its fair share of regional housing needs, Consistency with appropriate city or county general and specific plans and the sphere of influence of any local agency, which may be applicable to the proposal, Definiteness and certainty of the boundaries of the territory, the non-conformance of proposed boundaries with lines of assessment or ownership, the creation of islands or corridors of unincorporated territory, and other similar matters affecting the proposed boundary, Conformity of the proposal and anticipated effects with adopted Commission policies on providing planned, orderly efficient patterns of urban development. PERMITTED TERMS AND CONDITIONS… When it approves a proposal LAFCO can apply various conditions. These include but are not limited to: Payment for acquisition of existing property; levying or fixing and collecting special or extraordinary taxes, assessments or service charges for payment for acquired property, Disposition of responsibility for outstanding bonds or contractual obligations as well as the amount of responsibility, Formation of new improv Agricultural & Open Space Preservation – Contra Costa LAFCo Contra Costa Local Agency Formation Commission Toggle navigation Home Meetings/Public Hearings Policies Agricultural & Open Space Preservation Commissioner Handbook Campaign Disclosure Requirements Local Agencies Local Agency Directory Municipal Service Reviews Special Studies Unincorporated Islands Understanding LAFCO About Us Joint Powers Authorities (JPAs) Commissioners and Staff News Financial Documents Request for Proposals Senate Bill 272 Agricultural & Open Space Preservation Contra Costa LAFCO adopts Agricultural & Open Space Preservation Policy Contra Costa LAFCO is pleased to announce the final adoption of its Agricultural & Open Space Preservation Policy (AOSPP) . After 18 months of policy work and extensive stakeholder outreach and input, on December 14, 2016, the Commission finalized its first-ever AOSPP. The policy reflects the interests of the many stakeholders in Contra Costa County, including the agricultural, environmental and development communities. We extend our sincere thanks to all who participated and provided input. Why Did Contra Costa LAFCO Adopt an Agricultural & Open Space Preservation Policy? LAFCO’s are charged with: Encouraging orderly formation of cities and special districts Preserving agricultural and open space lands Curbing urban sprawl Encouraging efficient delivery of services LAFCO’s mission involves balancing the competing needs for efficient services, affordable housing, economic opportunity, and preservation and protection of our valuable agricultural and natural resources. LAFCOs are governed by the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 (CKH), which has as one of its central tenets the limitation of premature conversion and loss of California’s open space and agricultural lands. Generally, the CKH states: 56001 . The Legislature finds and declares that it is the policy of the state to encourage orderly growth and development which are essential to the social, fiscal, and economic well-being of the state. The Legislature recognizes that the logical formation and determination of local agency boundaries is an important factor in promoting orderly development and in balancing that development with sometimes competing state interests of discouraging urban sprawl, preserving open-space and prime agricultural lands, and efficiently extending government services. Further, the CKH lays out basic guidelines that LAFCOs shall follow in considering boundary change proposals: 56377 . In reviewing and approving or disapproving proposals which could reasonably be expected to induce, facilitate, or lead to the conversion of existing open-space lands to uses other than open-space uses, the commission shall consider all of the following policies and priorities: 1. Development or use of land for other than open-space uses shall be guided away from existing prime agricultural lands in open-space use toward areas containing nonprime agricultural lands, unless that action would not promote the planned, orderly, efficient development of an area. 2. Development of existing vacant or nonprime agricultural lands for urban uses within the existing jurisdiction of a local agency or within the sphere of influence of a local agency should be encouraged before any proposal is approved which would allow for or lead to the development of existing open-space lands for non-open-space uses which are outside of the existing jurisdiction of the local agency or outside of the existing sphere of influence of the local agency Beyond these basic guidelines, LAFCOs are required to develop local policies that encourage efficient urban development while preserving open-space and agricultural lands. What is the purpose of LAFCO’s Agricultural & Open Space Preservation Policy? The purpose of the Contra Costa LAFCO’s AOSPP is threefold: 1) to provide guidance to the applicant on how to assess the impacts on prime agricultural, agricultural and open space lands of applications submitted to LAFCO, and enable the applicant to explain how the applicant intends to mitigate those impacts; 2) to provide a framework for LAFCO to evaluate and process in a consistent manner, applications before LAFCO that involve or impact prime agricultural, agricultural and/or open space lands; and 3) to explain to the public how LAFCO will evaluate and assess applications that affect prime agricultural, agricultural and/or open space lands. The LAFCO AOSPP contains goals, policies and guidelines for the applicant as well as for LAFCO. GOALS - Agriculture and open space are vital and essential to Contra Costa County’s economy and environment. Accordingly, boundary changes for urban development should be proposed, evaluated, and approved in a manner that is consistent with the continuing growth and vitality of agriculture within the county. Open space lands provide the region with invaluable public benefits for all who visit, live and work in Contra Costa County. POLICIES - Contra Costa LAFCO encourages planned, well-ordered, efficient urban development patterns with appropriate consideration to preserving open space, agricultural and prime agricultural lands within those patterns. LAFCO’s Agricultural and Open Space Preservation Policy provides for a mitigation hierarchy which 1) encourages avoidance of impacts to prime agricultural, agricultural and open space lands, 2) minimizes impacts to these lands, and 3) mitigates impacts that cannot be avoided while pursuing orderly growth and development. GUIDELINES - The Guidelines are intended to provide further direction regarding the application of LAFCO’s Goals and Policies; to advise and assist the public, agencies, property owners, farmers, ranchers and other stakeholders with regard to LAFCO’s expectations in reviewing an application that involves prime agricultural, agricultural and/or open space lands; and to provide sample mitigation measures.
