members of the Working Body, agrees to perform the obligations, and the applicable work
plan and budget have been modified in accordance with the provisions antis MOU.
B. Fiscal Responsibilities
1. Division of Shared General Program Costs
a. Prior to the allocation of shared costs, each proposed or approved budget element or
sub -element shall be identified as either a Regional General Program cost, a
Watershed General Program cost, or an Other General Program cost, and the
Copermittees sharing that cost shall be identified. The cost of any particular budget
element shall be subject to the approval of only the Copermittees to which it applies.
The associated costs shall be divided among participating Copermittees as described
below.
(1) Default Formula. Shared costs shall be divided according to a Default Formula of
45% Urbanized Land Area, 45% Population, and 10% Equal Division unless a
Special Formula is approved by the Copermittccs to which the cost applies.
(a) Population costs shall be divided among the Copennittees as follows:
Whenever any geographic portion of the Port or Airport jurisdiction(s),
respectively, lies(s) within the geographic area to which the shared
program or activity is applicable, the Port or Airport, respectively, will
each pay a fixed 0.5% of total Population costs. The remaining
percentage of the population costs shall be divided among Copermittees
by dividing the total population of each Copennittce by the combined
total Copermittee population within the geographic area applicable to the
shared program or activity. These percentages shall be calculated using
the most recently available population data available from the San Diego
Association of Governments (SANDAL), unless more recent data arc
available from an equivalent source such as the U.S. Census Bureau, and
are determined to be acceptable by the Copermittees sharing the cost.
San Diego Regional Stormwater Copermittees MOU - 4 - November 16, 2007
(b) Urbanized Land Area costs shall be divided among Copermittees by
dividing the total Urbanized land Area of each Copermittee by the
combined total Urbanized Land Area of all participating Copermittees
within the geographic area applicable to the shared program or activity.
Urbanized Land Area shares shall be calculated using the most recently
available San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) land use
statistics. The Urbanized Land Area share for the County shall include
those urbanized lands in the unincorporated portion of the County that arc
west of the County Water Authority (CWA) service area boundary as it
exists on the date of this MOU or as formally amended by the CWA.
(c) Ten Percent (10%) of the total cost to be shared shall be divided equally
amongst all of the Copermittees.
(d) Modification of the Default Formula requires the unanimous approval of
all Copermittees.
(2) Special Formulas
(a) Special Formulas may be applied to any shared General Program cost, and
require the approval of a 'Three -fourths Majority of the Copennittees
participating in the cost.
(b) Special Formula for Hydromodification Management Plan (IIMP)
development. The Copermittees have initially estimated the total cost of
developing an HMP by a professional consultant to be $1,000,000 over a
two year period, and on March 15, 2007 approved a Fiscal Year 2007-08
regional shared costs budget that included $600,000 toward such costs,
plus an additional 5% for contract management. The remaining estimated
costs for completing the HMP, based on the actual consultant contract
award amount and associated administrative costs, will be included in the
Regional Work Plan and Regional Shared Costs budget for the 2008-09
fiscal year. IIMP costs shall be allocated according to the following
formula:
i Ten percent (10%) of the cost shall be divided equally among all
Copermittees.
ii. Ninety percent (90%) of the cost shall be divided based on the
estimated number of Developable Parcels within each
Copermittees' jurisdiction. Developable Parcel -based costs shall he
divided among all Copermittees as follows:
[ 1 ] The percentage of developable parcel share costs for which
each Copermittce is responsible shall be calculated by
dividing the Copermittee's total number of developable
parcels by the combined total developable parcels of all
participating Copermittees. Developable parcels shall be
calculated as the number of parcels within each
Copermittce's developable land area using the SANDAG
2007 Parcel Layer. Developable lands shall be determined
using the SANDAG 2004 developable land layer.
[2] The total developable land area for the County shall include
those urbanized lands in the unincorporated portion of the
San Diego Regional Stormwater Copermittees MOU - 5 - November 16, 2007
