WHEREAS, the Commission conducted a SOI update for the District pursuant to
California Government Code Section 56425, expanding the SOI by approximately 78 acres; and
WHEREAS, the Executive Officer gave sufficient notice of a public hearing to be
conducted by the Commission in the form and manner provided by law; and
WHEREAS, the Commission heard and fully considered all the evidence presented at a
public hearing held on the MSR and SOI update on November 24, 2025; and
WHEREAS, the Commission considered all the factors required under California
Government Code Section 56430 and 56425.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS RESOLVED, DETERMINED, AND ORDERED as follows:
1. The Commission, as Lead Agency, finds the MSR is exempt from further review under
the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Title 14 California Code of
Regulations Section 15306. This finding is based on the use of the MSR as a data
collection and service evaluation study. The information contained within the municipal
service review may be used to consider future actions that will be subject to additional
environmental review.
2. The Commission, as Lead Agency, finds the SOI update is exempt from further review
under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Title 14 California Code of
Regulations Section 15061(b)(3). This finding is based on the Commission determining
with certainty the update will have no possibility of significantly affecting the
environment given no new land use or municipal service authority is granted.
3. The MSR and SOI Update is assigned the following distinctive short-term designation:
"Big Rock CSD MSR/SOI Update 2025".
4. Pursuant to Government Code Section 56430(a), the Commission makes the written
statement of determinations for Big Rock CSD included in the MSR, hereby incorporated
by reference.
5. Pursuant to Government Code Section 56425(e), the Commission makes the written
statement of determinations for the agency under review included in the SOI update,
hereby incorporated by reference.
The Executive Officer shall revise the official records of the Commission to reflect this
MSR/SOI update and is authorized to make non-substantive changes to the document as
necessary.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Big Rock CSD MSR/SOI Update 2025 is hereby approved and
incorporated herein by reference and the SOI for the District is expanded to include an
additional 78 acres of land east of its current boundary as shown in Exhibit A, attached hereto.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was introduced at a regular meeting of the Del Norte Local Agency
Formation Commission on the 24th day of November 2025, and adopted by the following vote:
