CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Staff Report SUBJECT: Resolution of Intention --- Palm Avenue and Verdemont Drive Assessment District No. 1032 (Tract No. 14352). BACKGROUND: On September 7, 2004, authorization was given to proceed with the formation of a landscape maintenance assessment district within Tract No. 14352, located at the northeasterly comer of Palm A venue and Verdemont Drive. The District is being formed as a condition of approval for this tract, and pursuant to a petition field by Harwood Homes, the developer of this tract. The areas to be maintained include the slopes along the northerly line ofVerdemont Drive, within the tract. The developer has also paid the required formation fee of$4,000.00 Tract No. 14352 consists of 65 single family lots. The annual cost of maintenance and incidentals will be spread across these 65 lots. Part of the formation proceedings includes the preparation of an Engineer's Report, a copy of which is attached for your review. As stated in the Engineer's Report, the annual assessment for each single family lot within the District is estimated to be $142. The Report also contains additional information including the method of determining benefit and the method of assessment spread. None of the maintenance is deemed to be general benefit and the entire maintenance costs, plus incidentals, will be assessed to the District. The attached Resolution of Intention preliminarily approves the Engineer's Report and sets a public meeting for November I, 2004 and a public hearing for November 15, 2004. All owners of record will be given mailed notice relative to the public meeting and hearing and will also be sent an assessment ballot, to indicate their support or opposition to the formation of the Assessment District. Since all of the properties are currently under one ownership, no protests are anticipated. Future homeowners will purchase the homes subject to the assessment district. All potential home buyers will be given a disclosure notice by the developer, advising them of the existence of an assessment district and the proposed annual cost. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. Applicant has paid the $4,000 processing fee and all subsequent work carried out in the district will be assessed back to property owners. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution.

ASSESSMENT DISTRICT """'- Engineer's Report-AD 1032 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT SERVICES PUBLIC WORKS /ENGINEERING DIVISION ENGINEER'S REPORT ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1032 (Palm Avenue and Verdemont Drive Landscape Maintenance Assessment District) PETITION -- On August 14, 2003, a petition was received from the owner or the developer representing the owner of property within the proposed assessment district for the establishment of an assessment district for the maintenance oflandscaping along portions of the north side ofVerdemont Drive within Tract No. 14352. The signatures on the petition represent 100% of the property owners of the parcels within the proposed boundaries of the district. This petition was the result of a requirement placed upon the developer of Tract No. 14352 by the City to relieve the City from having to maintain the areas oflandscaping. AUTHORIZATION -- On September 7, 2004, by action of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino, the Director of Development Services and City Clerk were authorized to initiate proceedings for the formation of Assessment District No. 1032 (Palm Avenue and 1rvington Drive Landscape Maintenance Assessment District) pursuant to the provisions of San Bernardino City Municipal Code Chapter 12.90 and this Report has been prepared and is hereby submitted pursuant to said provisions and in accordance with Resolution of Intention No. adopted by the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino on the day of ADVANCE OF ESTIMATED COSTS OF PROCEEDINGS -- On August 14, 2003, pursuant to Section 12.94.030 of the Municipal Code, the developer deposited $4,000 with the City to cover the estimated cost of proceedings. At the conclusion of the proceedings and after confirmation of all costs, any amounts remaining will be returned to the developer. If actual costs are more than the deposit, then the remainder can either be paid in a lump sum by the developer or assessed against the properties involved. EASEMENTS - All landscaping to be maintained will be within the dedicated right of way and/or within landscape maintenance easements and no maintenance will be carried out on private property. DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS -- The improvements to be maintained include landscaping and all appurtenances along portions of the north side of Verdemont Drive, easterly of Palm A venue, within Tract No. 14352. PLANS ANDSPECIFICATIONS --Plans and Specifications for the landscaping have been prepared by the developer according to the standards of the City and is subject to final approval by the City prior to the installation of any landscaping. Engineer's Report - AD 1032 DESCRIPTION OF BOUNDARIES -- The boundaries of the proposed district are shown on the Assessment Boundary Map of Assessment District No. 1032 and are generally described as follows: The centerline of Verdemont Drive on the south; the centerline of Palm A venue to the west; and the northerly and easterly lines of Tract No. 14352 to the north and east, respectively. VICINITY MAP -- A vicinity map showing the general location of the proposed Assessment District is attached as Exhibit "I". DISTRICT BOUNDAR Y MAP -- A proposed District Boundary Map has been prepared and is on file in the office of the City Clerk. A reduced copy of the District Boundary Map is attached as Exhibit "2". DISTRICT DIAGRAM -- A proposed Diagram of the Assessment District has been prepared and will be filed with the City Clerk after preliminary approval of this Report and will be filed with the County Recorder and recorded in the office of the City Engineer after final approval of this Report, confirmation of the Assessment Roll and Resolution Ordering Work. A reduced copy of the Assessment District Diagram is attached as Exhibit "3". NOTICE OF EXEMPTION -- a "Notice of Exemption" declaring a Categorical Exemption was prepared and will be filed with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors of San Bernardino County upon formation of the District. No further environmental proceedings will be necessary. A copy of the Notice of Exemption is attached as Exhibit "4". METHOD OF ASSESSMENT AND DETERMINATION OF BENEFIT -- Landscaping and its proper maintenance enhances the esthetics of any given area and the benefit received by the owners of properties in the area is determined to be equal to the number of residential units that utilize the landscaped areas either as ingress and egress or by actual physical use of the land as in the cases oflarge open areas. The boundaries of the proposed district are drawn with this in mind and the Resolution of Intention delineates the specific areas of maintenance which will benefit all of the properties within the boundaries. Thus, each residential lot or unit, be it a single family lot, a condominium or an apartment will be assessed an equal share in the cost of maintenance (I residential lot or unit = I Assessment Unit). The benefit received by the parcels within the boundaries of the district is determined to be of more than ordinary public benefit, thus each parcel within the district being assessed receives a special benefit from the improvements. If property not within the boundaries of a district also receives some benefit from the improvements, consideration must then be given to a general benefit given by the improvements, which may not be assessed to the parcels within the district. Since the installation and maintenance of the landscaping and establishment of an assessment district for the maintenance of the landscaping is specific and incidental to this development, it is further determined that the improvements to be maintained by the assessment district are of special benefit to the district only and are 100% assessable to the parcels within the boundaries of the assessment district, except as follows: I. Areas of maintenance that front on maior arterial streets, as determined by the Circulation Plan of the City's General Plan, are determined to be 15% general benefit and the proportional costs thereof Engineer's Report - AD 1032 are not assessable to the District. 2. Areas of maintenance that front on secondary arterial streets, as determined by the Circulation Plan of the City's General Plan, are determined to be 10% general benefit and the proportional costs thereof are not assessable to the District. 3. Areas of maintenance that front on collector streets, as determined by the Circulation Plan of the City's General Plan, are determined to be 5% general benefit and the proportional costs thereof are not assessable to the District. 4. Areas that front on local streets are determined to be 100% special benefit and are 100% assessable to the District. These percentages are based on the traffic circulation for the various street classifications. Verdemont Drive is classified as a local street, and represents 100% of the total area to be maintained; thus 100% of the total cost of maintenance will be assessed to the District. Publicly owned lands within the Assessment District, if any, are subject to assessments, unless they receive no benefit with the exception of public right of way, which is not subject to assessments. There are no publicly owned parcels within the boundaries of the District. METHOD OF FINANCING -- The estimated cost of the first year's maintenance shall be assessed against the properties involved within the current fiscal year or the fiscal year following the establishment of the district. Depending upon when the costs are assessed and when the actual maintenance is assumed by the City, this assessed amount can be used as a source of pre-funding the first year's maintenance contract and incidental costs. Once the City has assumed the responsibility for the maintenance, the properties may be assessed in advance each year thereafter to establish a source of pre-funding each year's costs, or may be assessed for the actual contract and incidental costs plus interest. Interest will be included in the assessment costs for any amounts or portions not pre- funded through previous assessments. Ifthere is a surplus from the estimated assessment in the event costs are pre- funded through previous assessments, any such surplus shall be applied as a credit to the following year's assessment or placed in a reserve fund to cover future increases or maintenance until such reserves are depleted. The assessment, whether pre-funded or not, shall be levied, collected and enforced in the same manner, at the same time, and with the same penalties and interest as in the case of taxes levied for property taxes. Table I sets forth the estimated costs of the first year's maintenance. No Bonds will be sold relative to this Assessment District. ASSESSMENT SPREAD -- The amount of each Assessment Unit is determined by dividing the total maintenance costs, including all incidentals, by the total number of assessment units, as determined by the above Method of Assessment Each parcel in the district is then assessed based upon the total number of Assessment Units calculated for that parcel. ASSESSMENT ROLL -- Presently there are 65 single family parcels within Tract No. 14352, with each parcel representing I assessment unit as described under Method of Assessment, and assessments are spread Engineer's Report - AD 1032 accordingly. No further subdivision of the parcels is anticipated. An Assessment Roll representing the estimated first year's maintenance costs has been prepared for the 65 parcels within Tract No. 14352 and is shown as Exhibit "5". (FUTURE APPORTIONMENTS -- In the event that the assessment units, as determined under Method of Assessment, change for any parcel(s) during the term of the Assessment District, the assessment amount for that parcel(s) will change accordingly. Any increases based solely on change in parcel size, land use or density, which would result in an increase of assessment units, will not be subject to a public hearing as long as the formula for determining the assessments as described is applied. Pursuant to Chapter 12.90 of the San Bernardino Municipal Code, such reapportionments do not require the recording of an amended Diagram Map. FUTURE INCREASES -- Due to the nature oflandscape maintenance, it is anticipated that there will be future increases in assessments as contract, labor, water and energy costs are all subject to future increases. Annual increases may be increased without further notice or public hearing by a percentage equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all Urban Consumers in the Los Angeles-Orange County-Inland Empire area, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics over the previous year, or 5%, whichever is less. The CPI is typically used for maintenance districts. The rate varies from year to year, but in no event will an increase, if needed, exceed 5% without a majority approval of property owners in the district.
