Creek t8tates. This method imposes a financial hardship
on Butte Creek Estates. Although U.4h the Fstates propose to
develop a residential subdivision it- a, sewer system is
available, shc, .1dering the entire financial burden for
that sewer system would render the subdivision economically,
unfeasiblei
B. Assessment District
An assessment district could be formed to finance, the
sygterni All the properties that will eventually use the
system would be members of the district: Payback by the
members would be over a period of years; However, some
of the properties involved will not be in a position to
develop the land at this time. It is likely then, that
those prorierties would balk at being included in the
district. I
Reducing the num')er of participants in the district would
increase the cost to the remaining members, but would not
appreciably change the design of the system. The overall
cost of the system would remain substantially the same,.
C. Butte Countv-Property Owner cooperation,
Butte Creek Estates could enter into a cooperative itLgree-
ment with Butte County whereby Butte Creek provides a por-
tion of the cost; $230,000, and Butte County provides the
remainderi $420j000, from the Public Works Improvement
Fund. The fund will be replenished as each additional
uitit or acre connects to the system. Connection fees
will be fixed so that the County's investment Will be
substantially returned by the time that 60% of the area
has connected to the system (5 to 6 years from date Of
installation).
Suggested connection fees ares
l) Industrial. Use: $865,
/acne
2) Residentia Use: $350/unit
3') school Use. $450/acre
These fees would be in addition to fees required. by the
City of Chaco for each connection. Payback to the County
is shown in the Appendix.
4i. There are two practical ways of providing maintenance
for this systert. They are:
a) County Service Area
Maintenance of the proposed system could be provided
by forming a County Service Area. ;he City of Chico
has indicated that it would entertain a request to
Provide maintenance for a service area on a contract
basis.,
,
The City already maintains a large sanitary system
and has trained personnel and approptlate equipment
to readily maintain the proposed system. This would
eliminate a large capital Outlay for maintenance by
the service area: lie anticipate that the City will
waive a portion of direct service charges to the
users if a separate service area is formed.
b') Annexation
Annexation to the City of Chico of all the proper'tiot
on the west side or Highway 998 along the sewer main
route would turn the maintenance of the system over to
the City. Regular sewer service charges would be
charged to those properties connect6d to the system.
Annexation at. this time may be opposed by the property
owners because of the increase in property taxes. The
City of Chico may not seek the annexation because'of
the increased demand that would be placed on its police
and fire services.

CONCLOSIONS
li Install.ation of a sanitary sower system andconnection to the
Citof Chicas system i is practical:.
'
2. The cost of the ,proposed system, including engineering, ease-
q eqt, is approximately
$550,Op0 and environmental asse.�sm
ment ac uisa�tx.ort
3. The most feasible method of financing the project is through
a joint property owner -County of Butte agreement with the costs
shared 35% - 55%
4. The system will be operated and maintained as a County service
Area, 'rhe service area will contract with the City of Chico
for the work.
RECOMMENDA'T'IONS
Engineering investigation has shown that the area in
question can be served by the City of Chico's sanitary sewer
system. A combination gravity -pressure system would be required
to provide this service:
The estimated cost for this system is $050,000. The
property owners adjacent to the system have eXpressed interest in
participating in the cost of the system, but only as they develop
the properties; Butte Creek Estates Will invest $2,30,000 to initi-
ate the project.
In order to insure that the sanitary sewer system gets
installed, we matCe the following recommendations
A, Butte Creek Estates and Hutto County enter into an agree
meat which contains the following provisions-.
11) No design or construction of the system Will begin
until nutte creek Estates advances $230,000 to Butte
county,
2) Upon receipt of the $230,000; Butte county will
initiate the design of the project; either "in--hou-011
or by employing a consulting engineer, at the option
of Butte County:
3) After completion and approval of the plana and speer
fications, Butte' County will advertise for bias.
-6-
h) )Butte County will enter Into an a9tc2ernent with they,
City of Chico. This agreemcntwi11 �nclucte the
following provisions
a) The City of Chico will accept sewage from
the area in question.
b) butte County Will form a maintenance and
operations service area which will encompass
all lands that, are: potential users of the
proposedsysteitt.,
c) Butte County will enter into a contract with
the City of Chico to provide maintenance
and operation of the s;yetem
d) The City of Chico will wave a portion of the
annual service fees for properties within the
service area,. The amount to be waived shall
be one-third (1/8) of the fee adopted by
current ordinance
e) The city of Chico wall collect sanitary sewer
connection and capadity fees as indicated by
current ordinance for each property connected'
to the system'►
f) The City of Chico will. !not collect any front
footage changes from properties Within the
service area that connect to the system.
g) In addition to collecting sanitary sewer'
connection and service fees f6t lands within
the service area which have been annexed to
the City of Chicoj the City will collect a
Butte County cohhectibn fee, as spe�iified in
the agreement, and transmit the collected
fees to 8utto County on an annual basis.
h) The City of Chico reserves the right to
x"estr

7) in the event all work is tormi,nat:ad the unused portion
Of the original $230+000 plus 6''% annual interest on the
unused portion shah be returnod' to tutte Cresk gstates.
8) xn the event the contract: is awardable, nutte County
will inita ate prooedures to fo.rti a sdtVice are& for

Among tho several geological: hazaxd.8 known -to exist
in California volcanism, landslides, erosion, and flood-
ing are judged not to be a problem at this site. In
addition, water availability and .each --1 no drainage are
not expected to be problems. Seismic effects, subsidence,'
and expansive soil are discussed below,
There are no known oarthquako faults on or beneath
-the site, The nearest active fault is the Cleveland
Hills fault 20 Milos southeast of the site, on which the
August 1975 Otoville earthquake occurred4 The concealed
but. potentially --active willows faultis about 20 miles
southwest: of the site; a number of low --magnitude earth-
quakes have occurred near this fault (Butte County Gen-
eral Plant Map II -z). Another concealed fault: is thought
to extend from about Dayton to Richvale its northern and
is about. 4 miles from the project site, but inasmuch as
no epicenters are known to occur near it and there is no
evidence of eolo .call y -recent, activity, it is assumed
g g y
to offer no risk.
The Butte County General Plan (Table ll=X) lists the
maximum credible earthquake likely to originate: in the
Cleveland IIili s or Willows faults as having Ilichter mag-
nitudes of 6.4 and 7.3 from such a maximum earthquake,
Bunte County could expect to experience a maximum bod=y
rock acceleration of 0;4 - 046 g, with an average of
Oil w O,y25 g, and a maximum Modified Meroalli intensity
of VIIX t with a County average of VTI or VIM (M14
Vill is defined as damage or partial collapse of ordin-
ary masonry building:4, and "some" damage to masonry
buildings constructed to resist lateral forcos) The
estimates given in the General Plan seem reasonable:
Because of the distance from the sitF' tr, 1,he Cleve-
land Hills and Willows faults, the sits lot ex-
perience maximum accelerations or ince pro: Earth-

Subsidence to a potential problem in the entJ;ee

The cause is the heavy withdrawal ai: groundwater between

to is just beyond the
south edge of the "heaviest withdrawal'" area. Vffects
of regional subsidence can include damage to well casings
and gradient changes in roads, long storm -drain linea
canals; etc. It is not possible to predict ;in advance°
either the amount of subsidence or Whether the subsidence
Will be differential. (that is, whether one a-.., of the
region will subside fa8tor than another), in general,
the upper (eastern, in this case) part of an alluvial
fan ought to subside less than, t+he ;(,..ower part, because
of changes in the gravel/sand/clay rati,o,e but the issue
is complicated by the gact that maximum groundwater
withdrawal, is accUrrinq north or the sites.
Any potential, future ;problem can be mitigated by
designing long drains with more than the: minimum gradient

b1.
y wetting`and drying of soils that contain certain types
of expansible clays: Dessicationcracks, a sign of expan-
sible clay, in soil, are evident over most of the site
except for the southern one-fifth. The cracks are up to
Q.l ,inch wide (in Q'uly) and atf,ai.n a depth of a few inches.
A large 4-6" concreto slab south of an existing shed.
(east -central part: of Unit Two) appears to have been
broken by soil expansion. Numero,is cracks up to Q.2
inch wide show slight vertical offset of ladJacent portions
of the slab.
The moderate to slight Okpunsivity of the sol can
be mitigated by not using slab -type construction for

The site Could be, divided into 1 - acre rural'
residential estates,
Advanta:
Traffic and traffic related impacts,
such as air pollutant emissions, Would be t04UCed.
target lots would allow more hobby farming to occur,
The qrowth-Inducirig impacts and,
conflicts c 1 h. adjoining agricultural operations Would
essentially remain the same. The per -capita cost of
providing police and fire protection would be greater
than, under the current proposalA 'rho 1-2 acre plots
of almond8,0 i,� improperly cared for, would be Moro
likely to serve as a refuge for Navel Oranqoworm and other
agricultural pasts. In addition, the, price of such
homesito8 might be higher than the current market could
bear, resulting in loss than full buildout and rodudod
public service efficiency.
2, Planned Area, Cluster
Cluster the same n=bar of dwelling units into, 1-4
groups in the tenter of the, property.
Advantages: Clustered development would allow the
remaining almond trees on large- common areas to be com-
mercially managed and harvested. Approximately 50 per-
cent of the existing orchard could remain in produotioni
J In additibno there would be fewer restrictions on adjo'
inq agri,caltural operations. Compact dovolopment allows
more efficient use of building materials and reduces
energy expenditures. The impact of traffic noise along
the Midway would be reduced,
biogdVantagogi Growth"ihdudinq and
impacts Would not be reduced. The market might not
support a project of this nature, resulting in partial
buildout and related service and financial problems,
Again; the retaining orchards might not be propetly
maintained, leading to the ptoblom8 with aqtldu, ural
Posts that were mentioned earlier.
8, No Project Continued, operation or orchard
Adv6ttagest TraPfic-rolated 1IMPadE4 would be post"
Voted indefinitely. In addition, there would be no in"
crease in demand for public services, and conflicts with
surrounding agricultural operations wouldbe eliminated,
