Plan Check
Developer prepared drainage infrastructure improvement plans are checked on a fee for service basis. The District draws expenses from a deposit made by the developer and refunds the remainder in full within 45 days of the District's plan approval.
Plans to be checked should be delivered to the District with a check or money order and a completed Plan Check Application and Submittal Requirement form and Deposit Based Fee worksheet. The submittal must be complete for the plans to be scheduled for checking. Use the links to view the Plan Check Application, Submittal Requirements and Plan Check Deposit Based Fee Worksheet in PDF format.  A link to download a copy of Acrobat Reader is at the bottom of page. Also, please see the New Procedures for Compliance SARWQCB Order.

Area Drainage Plan fees should be paid at the District with a cashier's check or money order. They should be accompanied by a copy of the final map to help us verify the amount due.

ADP fee credits are earned whenever an ADP facility is constructed. A report showing all the ADP fee credits earned in a particular Zone may be viewed by accessing the Fee Credit Summary link . Excess fee credits may be available for transfer or purchase within the plan boundary. Please contact the District's Plan Check Section for further information.
Agreements
The District prepares cooperative agreements with many combinations of entities. The developer who needs an agreement should submit an application and other appropriate documents to us. Use this link to view the Application for Agreement Preparation in PDF format. A link to download a copy of Acrobat Reader is at the bottom of page. The District's Plan Check Section can be reached at 951.955.8626 for projects undergoing improvement plan or grading plan review.
Tentative Review
The District's Subdivision Section reviews both subdivision and land use cases in unincorporated areas within the District's boundaries. The cases are sent to us by the County Planning Department and we recommend conditions of approval for these projects to the County Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors.
A normal review consists of a flood hazard report and conditions specifically geared to the project for flood protection, facility construction and Area Drainage Plan fees.
Development cases within incorporated areas are given only a cursory review that concentrates on District Master Drainage Plan facilities and Area Drainage Plan fees.
County Fast Track cases are given priority and the turnaround time for their review is generally less than one week. All other cases are reviewed on a first come, first served basis. For status or information concerning new development projects undergoing tentative map review, please call the District's Subdivision Section at 951.955.8626.
