Local Agency Formation Commissions (LAFCos) are quasi-legislative local agencies created in 1963 to assist the State in encouraging the orderly development and formation of local agencies. This SOI Study consists of a review of the four recreation districts in Plumas County with regard to the boundary recommendations for recreation services. The Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 (Government Code §56000 et seq.) is the statutory authority for the preparation of an MSR and periodic updates of the Sphere of Influence of each local agency. A Sphere of Influence is a plan for the probable physical boundaries and service area of a local agency, as determined by the affected Local Agency Formation Commission (Government Code §56076). Government Code §56425(f) requires that each Sphere of Influence be updated not less than every five years as necessary, and §56430 provides that a Municipal Service Review shall be conducted in advance of the Sphere of Influence update. 1.2 Sphere of Influence Requirements In determining the Sphere of Influence for each local agency, LAFCo must consider and prepare a written statement of determinations with respect to each of the following: 1. The present and planned land uses in the area, including agricultural and open space lands 2. The present and probable need for public facilities and services in the area 3. The present capacity of public facilities and adequacy of public services which the agency provides, or is authorized to provide 4. The existence of any social or economic communities of interest in the area if the commission determines that they are relevant to the agency 5. Present and probable need for public facilities and services of any disadvantaged unincorporated communities within the existing Sphere of Influence 1.3 LAFCo Policies and Procedures Related to Spheres of Influence Plumas LAFCo has adopted policies and procedures related to spheres of influence that are included as part of an overall Plumas LAFCo policy, standards and procedures document adopted on June 16, 2010. Plumas LAFCo has discussed and considered the SOI process in open session, and has adopted a schedule notwithstanding budget appropriations for completing the various municipal service reviews and sphere of influence updates for Plumas County. 1 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 1.4 Description of Public Participation Process Plumas LAFCo is authorized by the California Legislature and delegated powers as stated in the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 (the Act). LAFCo proceedings are subject to the provisions California’s open meeting law, the Ralph M. Brown Act (Government Code Sections 54950 et seq.) The Brown Act requires advance posting of meeting agendas and contains various other provisions designed to ensure that the public has adequate access to information regarding the proceedings of public boards and commissions. Plumas LAFCo complies with the requirements of the Brown Act. 1.5 Possible Approaches to the Sphere of Influence LAFCo may recommend government reorganizations to particular agencies in the county, using the SOIs as the basis for those recommendations. Based on review of the guidelines of Plumas LAFCo as well as other LAFCos in the State, various conceptual approaches have been identified from which to choose in designating an SOI. These seven approaches are explained below: 1) Coterminous Sphere: A Coterminous Sphere means that the Sphere of Influence for a city or special district that is the same as its existing boundaries of the city or district. 2) Annexable Sphere: A sphere larger than the agency’s boundaries identifies areas the agency is expected to annex. The annexable area is outside the district boundaries and inside the sphere of influence. 3) Detachable Sphere: A sphere that is smaller than the agency’s boundaries identifies areas the agency is expected to detach. The detachable area is the area within the agency bounds but not within its sphere of influence. 4) Zero Sphere: A zero sphere indicates the affected agency’s public service functions should be reassigned to another agency and the agency should be dissolved or combined with one or more other agencies. 5) Consolidated Sphere: A consolidated sphere includes two or more local agencies and indicates the agencies should be consolidated into one agency. While one of the goals of LAFCO is to consider consolidation of districts, this is not possible or advisable for the four recreation districts considered in this report. 2 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 6) Limited Service Sphere: A limited service sphere is the territory included within the SOI of a multi-service provider agency that is also within the boundary of a limited purpose district which provides the same service (e.g., fire protection), but not all needed services. Territory designated as a limited service SOI may be considered for annexation to the limited purpose agency without detachment from the multi-service provider. This type of SOI is generally adopted when the following conditions exist: a) The limited service provider is providing adequate, cost effective and efficient services b) The multi-service agency is the most logical provider of the other services c) There is no feasible or logical SOI alternative d) Inclusion of the territory is in the best interests of local government organization and structure in the area Government Code §56001 specifically recognizes that in rural areas it may be appropriate to establish limited purpose agencies to serve an area rather than a single service provider, if multiple limited purpose agencies are better able to provide efficient services to an area rather than one service district. Moreover, Government Code Section §56425(i), governing sphere determinations, also authorizes a sphere for less than all of the services provided by a district by requiring a district affected by a sphere action to “establish the nature, location, and extent of any functions of classes of services provided by existing districts” recognizing that more than one district may serve an area and that a given district may provide less than its full range of services in an area. 7) Sphere Planning Area: LAFCo may choose to designate a sphere planning area to signal that it anticipates expanding an agency’s SOI in the future to include territory not yet within its official SOI. There are no anticipated sphere planning areas within Plumas County at this time. 1.6 SOI Update Process LAFCo is required to establish SOIs for all local agencies and enact policies to promote the logical and orderly development of areas within the SOIs. Furthermore, LAFCo must update those SOIs every five years, as necessary. In updating the SOI, LAFCo is required to conduct a Municipal Service Review (MSR) and adopt related determinations. This report identifies SOI determinations and recommends a SOI for the each of the four recreation districts. LAFCo must notify affected agencies 21 days before holding a public hearing to consider the SOI and may not update the SOI until that hearing is closed. The LAFCo Executive Officer must issue a report including recommendations on the SOI amendment and update under consideration at least five days before the public hearing. 3 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 1.7 SOI Amendments and CEQA LAFCo has the discretion to limit SOI updates to those that it may process without unnecessarily delaying the SOI update process or without requiring its funding agencies to bear the costs of environmental studies associated with SOI expansions. Any local agency or individual may file a request for an SOI amendment. The request must state the nature of and reasons for the proposed amendment, and provide a map depicting the proposal. LAFCo may require the requester to pay a fee to cover LAFCo costs, including the costs of appropriate environmental review under CEQA. LAFCo may elect to serve as lead agency for such a review, may designate the proposing agency as lead agency, or both the local agency and LAFCo may serve as co-lead agencies for purposes of an SOI amendment. Local agencies are encouraged to consult with LAFCo staff early in the process regarding the most appropriate approach for the particular SOI amendment under consideration. Certain types of SOI amendments are likely exempt from CEQA review. Examples are SOI expansions that include territory already within the bounds or service area of an agency, SOI reductions, zero SOIs and coterminous SOI’s. SOI expansions for limited purpose agencies that provide services (e.g., fire protection, levee protection, cemetery, and resource conservation) needed by both rural and urban areas are typically not considered growth-inducing and are likely exempt from CEQA. Similarly, SOI expansions for districts serving rural areas (e.g., irrigation water) are typically not considered growth inducing. Remy et al. write: “In City of Agoura Hills v. Local Agency Formation Commission (2d Dist.1988) 198 Cal.App.3d480, 493-496 [243 Cal.Rptr.740] (City of Agoura Hills), the court held that a LAFCO’s decision to approve a city’s sphere of influence that in most respects was coterminous with the city’s existing municipal boundaries was not a “project” because such action did not entail any potential effects on the physical environment.”1 1.8 Recreation and Park Districts2 The principal act that governs these Districts is the Recreation and Park District Law.3 The principal act empowers Recreation and Park Districts to 1) organize, promote, conduct, and advertise programs of community recreation, including, but not limited to, parks and open space, parking, transportation, and other related services that improve the community’s quality of life, 1 Remy, Michael H., Tina A. Thomas, James G. Moose, Whitman F. Manley, Guide to CEQA, Solano Press Books, Point Arena, CA, February 2007, page 111. 2 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Page 46. 3 California Public Resources Code §5780-5791 4 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 2) establish systems of recreation and recreation facilities, including, but not limited to, parks and open space, and 3) acquire, construct, improve, maintain, and operate recreation facilities, including, but not limited to, parks and open space, both inside and beyond the district’s boundaries.4 Districts must apply and obtain LAFCo approval to exercise latent powers, that is, those services authorized by the principal act but not provided by the district by the end of 2000.5 1.9 Disadvantaged Unincorporated Communities (DUCs) SB 244 requires LAFCos to consider disadvantaged unincorporated communities when developing spheres of influence. Upon the next update of a sphere of influence on or after July 1, 2012, SB 244 requires LAFCo to include in an MSR (in preparation of a sphere of influence update): 1) The location and characteristics of any disadvantaged unincorporated communities within or contiguous to the sphere; and 2) The present and planned capacity of public facilities, adequacy of public services and infrastructure needs or deficiencies including needs or deficiencies related to sewers, municipal and industrial water, and structural fire protection in any disadvantaged unincorporated community within or contiguous to the sphere of influence. In determining spheres of influence, SB 244 authorizes LAFCo to assess the feasibility of and recommend reorganization and consolidation of local agencies to further orderly development and improve the efficiency and affordability of infrastructure and service delivery. The US Census Bureau shows the following information regarding Plumas County: US Census Data Plumas County6 Plumas County California Population April 1, 2010 20,007 37,254,503 Population Estimate July 1, 2015 18,409 39,144,818 Percent Change -8.0% 5.1% Median household income (in 2015 dollars), $47,333 $61,818 2011-2015 Communities below 80% of the State Median Household Income, $49,454, are considered disadvantaged. Thus, Plumas County could be considered disadvantaged because the median household income in Plumas County is $47,333. The recreation districts do not supply sewer, water or structural fire protection services so no SOI Determinations are required. 4 California Public Resources Code §5786. 5 Government Code §56824.10. 6 US Census Bureau, http://www.census.gov/quickfacts/table/INC110215/06063,06, February 11, 2017 5 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 2 ALMANOR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICT (ARPD) 2.1 Almanor Recreation and Park District Background 2.1.1 Almanor Recreation and Park District Location7 The Almanor Recreation and Park District (ARPD) is located entirely within Plumas County and the boundaries of the District are the same as the Seneca Healthcare District. The boundary area includes the communities of Chester, Lake Almanor Country Club, Hamilton Branch, Lake Almanor West, Prattville, and East Shore. The District boundaries encompass approximately 283 square miles. This area is also served by the Chester Cemetery District. 2.1.2 Almanor Recreation and Park District Communities There are approximately 3,957 residents within the District, based on census tract population in the 2010 Census.8 It is estimated by the District that the population of the Lake Almanor Basin grows to over 20,000 during the summer season from a winter population of 5,000.9 The five communities within the Almanor Recreation and Park District will be discussed below; however, Chester is the largest community within the District. A. Chester Chester (formerly Big Meadows) is a census-designated-place (CDP) located on Lake Almanor, 30 miles north-northwest of Quincy. The town is located along State Route 36. The population was 2,144 at the 2010 census, down from 2,316 at the 2000 census. The community is served by the Chester Public Utility District and the Chester Fire Protection District. The town was founded and named by two settlers, one from Chester, Vermont, and another from Chester, Missouri. The Chester post office opened in 1894 and moved in 1908.10 The primary industries in Chester are lumber manufacturing and tourism. Lake Almanor has developed as a vacation/tourist destination and Chester serves as the retail center for the area. Four of the Almanor basin's six gas stations are located in Chester, as well as the Almanor basin's only full-sized grocery store. The 2010 Census reported that Chester had a population of 2,144. There were 943 households, out of which 249 had children under the age of 18 living in them, there were 288 households made up of individuals and 95 had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.26. There were 581 families (61.6% of all households); the average family size was 2.81. 7 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Pages 46-47. 8 Census Tracts 5.01 and 5.02 in Plumas County. 9 www.senecahospital.org 10 Durham, David L.

This means there were 294 vacant housing units, most likely vacation homes. Chester has two public schools, both part of the Plumas Unified School District, as follows: Chester Elementary School, 158 Aspen St, Chester, CA 96020 Phone: (530) 258-3194 E-Mail: http://www.pcoe.k12.ca.us Chester Junior-Senior High School, 612 First St, Chester, CA 96020 Phone: (530) 258-2126 E-Mail: http://www.pcoe.k12.ca.us B. Hamilton Branch Hamilton Branch is a census-designated place (CDP). The population was 587 at the 2000 census, but decreased to 537 in 2010. Hamilton Branch is located at on the south- east shore of Lake Almanor. The town has a total area of 1.1 square miles. The 2010 US Census reported that 537 people lived in households 234 households, out of which 50 (21.4%) had children under the age of 18 living in them, 58 households (24.8%) were made up of individuals and 27 (11.5%) had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.29. There were 162 families (69.2% of all households); the average family size was 2.72.

It is assumed that the 200 vacant housing units were vacation homes. 7 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS Hamilton Branch has a Fire Protection District and a Community Services District which provides water service. C. Lake Almanor Country Club Area The Peninsula is the major east-side peninsula bisecting the Lake Almanor and is largely taken up by the Lake Almanor Country Club, the community of Almanor, and the more recent residential developments known as Bailey Creek and Foxwood. Water is supplied to the Lake Almanor Country Club by the Lake Almanor Country Club Mutual Water Company. D. Lake Almanor West According to Census 2000, the Lake Almanor West population was 329.11 Based on census designated place population in the 2010 Census, there are 270 permanent residents within Lake Almanor West.12 This shows that the full-time population has declined by about 18 percent over the last ten years. There are approximately 475 housing units within the Lake Almanor West Community Services District with only 28 percent of those units occupied full-time. 13 E. Prattville According to Census 2000, the Prattville population was 28.14 Based on census designated place population in the 2010 Census, there are 33 permanent residents within Prattville.15 2.1.3 Almanor Park and Recreation District Facilities and Services A. History An attempt to form Almanor Park and Recreation District was first made in 1988. The application for the new district was approved by LAFCo, but failed in a general election. In 1999, the second attempt was approved by both, the Commission and later by the voters. The District was formed to provide recreational opportunities and programs to residents of Almanor basin.16 B. Financial Operations The District has no employees and is managed by the volunteer Board of Directors. The District’s total revenues for FY 10-11 were $17,164. Revenue sources included income from charges for services (96.5 percent), donations (three percent) and use of money and property (0.5 percent). 11 Census designated place Lake Almanor West in Plumas County. 12 Census designated place Lake Almanor West in Plumas County. 13 Plumas LAFCo, Municipal Service Review for Lake Almanor Region of Plumas County, October 2012, Page 229. 14 US Census Bureau, Census designated place Lake Almanor West in Plumas County. 15 US Census Bureau, Census designated place Lake Almanor West in Plumas County. 16 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Page 46. 8 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS ARPD has been surviving on user fees and money from fundraisers. It was reported that revenues have been staying constant for the last few years. The largest revenue source is soccer fees. The District is not supported by property taxes or a special assessment.17 ARPD charges district residents and non-residents equal fees. Truman Collins Multi-Use Park user fees are $20 per day, $100 per week, and $200 per month. Soccer fees are $30 per individual player or a maximum of $70 per family. The District charges $25 per runner for early registration and $30 for later registration for the Fourth of July Fun Run. The District’s expenditures in FY 10-11 were $17,623. Expenditures were composed of services and supplies (97 percent) and salaries and benefits (three percent). ARPD has minimal expenses since it is operated by volunteers. The District has a financial reserve that was originally earmarked for a pool, which was ultimately not constructed because the District was unable to pass a tax measure to finance its maintenance. ARPD has $43,905 in its reserve, $4,095 out of which is restricted and will be returned to the funding sources since the pool was never built.18 C. Facilities ARPD operates the Truman Collins Sports Complex—a soccer and baseball field, which is used for activities organized by the District and by other organizations, such as Little League and Chester Junior-High School. The complex is operated by ARPD and leased from the Collins Pine Company. The field was reported to be fairly new and in good condition; however, location and planning was slightly lacking at the time it was built. The complex is open daily during daylight hours as there are no lights on the field per the use agreement with Collins Pine Company. 19 D. Services ARPD contracts with Chester PUD for fire, EMS, water, and wastewater services. Chester PUD provides services to ARPD through an out-of-area service agreement (OASA).20 An agreement was entered into by Chester PUD, Collins Pine Company and the Almanor Recreation and Park District in 2010 for a 20-year lease of property known as the Truman Collins Sports Complex on a 2.3-acre area needing water, wastewater and fire and EMS services provided by Chester PUD. ARPD, through the Collins Pine Company, filed a Plumas LAFCo out-of-area service agreement (OASA) application for approval and Chester PUD has agreed to serve and provide the 2.3-acre sports complex area with domestic water and fire and EMS services and in the future with wastewater services.21 17 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Page 53. 18 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Page 54. 19 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Page 53. 20 Plumas LAFCo, 2010-OASA-001. 21 Plumas LAFCo, Lake Almanor Area Municipal Service Review, Adopted October 15, 2012, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates, LLC, Page 53. 9 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 2.2 Almanor Recreation and Park District Sphere of Influence Determinations The Sphere of Influence for the Almanor Recreation and Park District should remain the same as the District boundary. It is convenient that this area is the same as that for two other special districts and people are used to thinking of this area as a community. 2.2.1 SOI Determinations on Present and Planned Land Use for the Almanor Recreation and Park District 1-1] The estimated population served by ARPD is about 3,957 residents. The summer population goes up to about four times the number of permanent residents. 1-2] Over the past few years the District has experienced little or no growth in population. The demand for services has stayed fairly consistent. 1-3] Little or no growth in population and in service demand is expected within the District in the next few years. 1-4] There are two potential developments within the District, both of which are currently on hold. 1-5] The land use authority is Plumas County. The District should maintain contact with the Plumas County Planning Department regarding proposed developments. 2.2.2 SOI Determinations on Facilities and Services: Present and Probable Need for the Almanor Recreation and Park District 2-1] The District’s current facilities have the capacity to adequately serve existing demand. 2-2] Should any significant growth occur, the District will likely need to begin offering a higher level of service to address the residents’ needs. Necessary enhancements may include hiring a qualified recreation professional to manage the District, fundraising and expanding recreational programs and facilities. 2-3] The District soccer storage shed was constructed in 2014. 2-4] ARPD plans for its capital improvements annually in the budget on an as-needed basis. 2.2.3 SOI Determinations on Public Facilities Present and Future Capacity for the Almanor Recreation and Park District 3-1] ARPD does not receive property tax or parcel assessment income; it is almost entirely supported by user fees revenue and some minor donations. 10 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 3-2] ARPD reports that its financing is adequate; however, the District has been forced to minimize expenditures (by relying entirely on volunteers) and capitalize on facility sharing and joint financing arrangements in order to stay within budget each year. 3-4] ARPD does not have any long-term debt. 2.2.4 SOI Determinations on Social or Economic Communities of Interest for the Almanor Recreation and Park District 4-1] Chester is the center of the Almanor Recreation and Park District and provides all community services including commercial retail stores, five churches, schools, a hospital, sewer, water, and fire protection. 4-2] Residents in outlying areas and visitors to the ARPD rely on services provided by the community of Chester. 4-3] The ARPD adds value to the land in the District by providing community events and recreational activities. 2.2.5 Present and probable need for public facilities and services of any Disadvantaged Unincorporated Communities within the existing Almanor Recreation and Park District Sphere of Influence 5-1] It is not necessary to make a determination on DUC status because the Almanor Recreation and Park District does not supply sewer, water or fire protection services. 11 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 3 CENTRAL PLUMAS RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICT (CPRD) 3.1 Central Plumas Recreation and Park District Background 3.1.1 Communities within CPRD The Central Plumas Recreation and Park District includes the following communities: 1. Quincy 2. East Quincy 3. Greenhorn 4. Meadow Valley 5. Spanish Ranch 6. Paxton/Keddie 7. Spring Garden 8. Massack 9. Black Hawk Each community will be described briefly below. Some demographic data is included to indicate the composition of the population as an indicator of the type of recreation services which may be needed. A. Quincy Quincy (formerly, Quinsy) is a census-designated place and the county seat of Plumas County. The population was 1,728 at the 2010 census, down from 1,879 at the 2000 census. Quincy started as a Gold Rush community just outside of Elizabethtown CA. Elizabethtown started in 1852 and slowly dissolved and moved a mile away into American Valley to form Quincy after 1858. Quincy is named after the City of Quincy, Illinois, named in turn after John Quincy Adams (1767 - 1848), the sixth president of the United States (1825 - 1829). The Quincy post office opened in 1855. James H. Bradley, one of the organizers of Plumas County, donated the land at Quincy for establishment of the county seat.22 Quincy is noted as being the home of the High Sierra Music Festival since 1998, which celebrated its 22nd year in 2012. Quincy contains the Plumas County Museum, which houses Maidu Indian and Gold Rush artifacts as well as many other items. The Census reported that 1,673 people lived in 798 households, out of which 183 (22.9%) had children under the age of 18 living in them, 314 households (39.3%) were made up of individuals and 93 (11.7%) had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.10. There were 413 families (51.8% of all households); the average family size was 2.77. 22 Durham, David L. (1998).

Central Plumas Recreation and Park District Overview The Central Plumas Recreation and Park District was formed by a voter mandate in 1953. The District is dedicated to providing a wide variety of recreation and park opportunities to the residents of Quincy, Meadow Valley and the outlying areas located within its political boundaries. The District is governed by a publicly elected Board of Directors that meets in open session on the fourth Tuesday of each month. Funding for the District comes from a combination of sources including local property tax (60%), park and recreation activity fees (34%) and other miscellaneous sources (6%). The District is also very appreciative of tax deductible donations of property, vehicles or other endowments. The District's regular staff is comprised of a General Manager, Recreation Coordinator, and an Administrative Secretary/Bookkeeper. The District also employs a host of part- time lifeguards, gym supervisors and maintenance workers each summer season.29 B.

The group picnic/BBQ facility can be reserved for parties or other events. Pioneer Sports Annex In 2009, the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District acquired a three-acre parcel of undeveloped land adjacent to the Pioneer Park and Pool complex. The acquisition was the result of an opportunity purchase at approximately one third of the appraised value of the property. One year later, in 2010, the District also acquired the adjoining one-acre parking area through the Federal Lands to Parks program. With that acquisition, at no cost to the District, there is deeded ingress and egress off Highway 70, as well as parking spaces for approximately 25-30 vehicles. The Board of Directors and District staff conducted several public workshops in 2010 to determine the best use of the property. What came out of that public input process was a plan to eventually develop the site into a community athletic field that could accommodate future youth and adult soccer programs as well as other sports and recreation activities. To date, no funding has been located or secured to facilitate the development of the Pioneer Sports Annex Facility. Utilization of the Pioneer Sports Annex site currently is limited to short term camping for patrons of the High Sierra Music Festival during the fourth of July weekend. The Recreation and Park District invites and welcomes tax deductible donations - large or small - toward the eventual completion of this most important project. C.

Although the District thinks the Greenville area should be part of the District this area is in the Indian Valley Recreation and Park District. 3.2.1 SOI Determinations on Present and Planned Land Use for the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District 1-1] The estimated population served by Central Plumas RPD is about 6,282 residents. 1-2] Over the past few years the District has experienced little or no growth in population. The demand for services has declined somewhat in particular programs. 1-3] Little or no growth in population and in service demand is expected within the District in the next few years. 1-4] There are no potential development planned within the District at this time. 1-5] The District should maintain contact with the Plumas County Planning Department to be aware of any planned changes in land use within the District. 3.2.2 SOI Determinations on Facilities and Services: Present and Probable Need for the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District 2-1] The District’s current facilities have the capacity to adequately serve existing demand. 2-2] The District identified the need to recondition the surface of the pool at Pioneer Park. 2-3] The Central Plumas RPD plans for capital improvements approximately every five years. The most recent identified improvement is the development of the Pioneer Sports Annex adjacent to Pioneer Park. To date there has been no funding allocated to this development. 18 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 3.2.3 SOI Determinations on Public Facilities Present and Future Capacity for the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District 3-1] CPRPD does receive property tax income, which is the most significant revenue stream for the District. 3-2] CPRPD reports that its financing is adequate; however, should any significant growth occur, the District will need to increase fees and/or look for new revenue sources in order to provide adequate service. 3-3] The District ad $70,606 in long-term debt, consisting of compensated absences, at the end of FY 2013. 3.2.4 SOI Determinations on Social or Economic Communities of Interest for the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District 4-1] The communities of Quincy and East Quincy are the focus of the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District. 4-2] The CPRPD adds value to the community and coordinates recreational facilities with other institutions in the community such as Feather River Community College. 4-3] Quincy is a full service community including a hospital, numerous churches, Feather River Community College and businesses to serve both residents and visitors. 2.2.5 Present and probable need for public facilities and services of any Disadvantaged Unincorporated Communities within the existing Central Plumas Recreation and Park District Sphere of Influence 5-1] It is not necessary to make a determination on DUC status because the Central Plumas Recreation and Park District does not supply sewer, water or fire protection services. 19 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 4 EASTERN PLUMAS RECREATION DISTRICT (EPRD) 4.1 Eastern Plumas Recreation District Background 4.1.1 Location of Eastern Plumas Recreation District32 EPRD is located in the eastern part of Plumas County. It borders Sierra County in the south, Lassen County in the east and north, and Cromberg, Greenhorn and National Forest in the west. The incorporated territory of the City of Portola, as it existed at the end of 2003, is excluded from the District.33 The City’s territory was excluded in the formation resolution, and two subsequent annexations (2003) to the City were processed with applicable detachments from EPRD; however, it appears that city annexations that were processed after 2003 did not result in detachments from the District. EPRD is entirely within Plumas County. The initial boundaries of the District were the same as they existed for Eastern Plumas Healthcare District on August 15, 2000, excluding the legal boundaries of the City of Portola. The District’s boundaries encompass approximately 541,946 acres or 847 square miles. Since formation, there have been two detachments from the District—North Joy Parcels and Teanna Ranch. Both detachments took place in 2003; the territory was detached from both EPRD and Eastern Plumas Rural Fire Protection District, and simultaneously annexed by the City of Portola. The Community of Cromberg, is located between the Central Plumas and Eastern Plumas Park and Recreation Districts and not located in either district. 4.1.2 City of Portola Although the City of Portola is excluded from the Eastern Plumas Recreation District for the most part the City will be briefly described below because the City residents are the majority of the population within the area. Portola is the only incorporated city in Plumas County. Portola is located on the Middle Fork of the Feather River, and was named after Spanish explorer Gaspar de Portola` despite his never having actually explored the surrounding area. The place name is generally mispronounced, with stress on the middle syllable, thus ignoring the accent mark in its namesake's surname. Portola is a crew change site on the Union Pacific Railroad Feather River Route over the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The city is also home to the Western Pacific Railroad Museum (formerly Portola Railroad Museum), one of the largest railroad museums in the Western US.34 The museum is famous for its “Run a Locomotive” program, where the public can participate in a "fantasy experience" program allowing them to run a railroad locomotive on the museum grounds. 32 Plumas LAFCo, Eastern Plumas Municipal Service Review Final, Adopted October 3, 2011, Prepared by Policy Consulting Associates LLC, Page 155. 33 Plumas LAFCo Resolution 2001-006. 34 City of Portola, http://www.ci.portola.ca.us/portola-railroad-museum.html, February 21, 2017. 20 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS The population was 2,104 at the 2010 census, down from 2,227 at the 2000 census.

The current primary project for EPRD is the opening of a ski hill. The District, in cooperation with Plumas Corporation and Plumas Ski Club, is working towards signing a full operating agreement with the State for the ski hill, and raising money for the development of the slope. The District operates purely as a financing mechanism for projects and programs managed by other agencies, by providing a conduit service for other agencies who wish to apply for and obtain funding from bond and grant initiatives, by applying for and distributing funds to partner agencies, and providing donations to support recreational activities. At present, the District has limited financing to be used for this purpose. In order to improve the District’s level of service, EPRD is searching for additional revenue sources. If this fails, the District will consider dissolution, as effective programming and capital improvements cannot be adequately financed with the District’s existing budget. 28 PLUMAS LAFCo - Adopted August 14, 2017 SPHERE OF INFLUENCE STUDY FOUR RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICTS 4.2 Eastern Plumas Recreation District Sphere of Influence Determinations The District Sphere of Influence should be the same as the District Boundary, excluding the City of Portola.
