Adoption of Ordinance No. 97 Establishing Revised Capacity Fees and Annexation Fees

The Goleta Sanitary District is proposing the adoption of Ordinance No. 97 to implement revised capacity fees and annexation fees, aimed at aligning financial requirements with current infrastructure needs and growth projections. These fees will govern the costs assessed on new developments and property annexations seeking connection to the district’s wastewater services, ensuring equitable funding for system expansion and maintenance. The ordinance updates the fee structure to reflect modern engineering standards, demographic trends, and the financial sustainability of public utilities in the region. The initiative is being executed by the Goleta Sanitary District in California, with primary oversight from General Manager Steve D. Wagner and Assistant General Manager Vytautas Adomaitis, both reachable through the district’s official contact channels. Although no specific solicitation number or NAICS code is listed, the matter is publicly forecasted to occur in July 2026 and can be accessed via the district’s project portal. The changes affect all entities seeking to connect to or expand within the district’s service area, and the revised fee schedule will replace existing rates to ensure fair cost allocation based on water usage, system impact, and development density.
