CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
SUBJECT:
Resolution of Intention --- formation of a Landscape Maintenance Assessment District in the
Magnolia Avenue and Ohio Avenue area (Tract No. 14604).
BACKGROUND:
On July 7, 2003, authorization was given to proceed with the formation of Assessment District
No. 1030, in the Magnolia Avenue and Ohio Avenue area. The improvements to be maintained
include landscaping and all appurtenances along portions of the north side of Ohio Avenue, east
of Magnolia Avenue, and the east side of Magnolia A venue, north of Ohio Avenue, all within the
boundaries of Tract 14604. The purpose of this assessment district is for the assigmnent of costs
for the maintenance of the landscaping to the owners of the properties most benefiting from the
landscape area. This is also being done for blight prevention since property owners usually do
not maintain the areas beyond the perimeter block walls of a tract. A letter requesting the
formation of the district was received from MAPCO on behalf of the property owner, R. 1. Elder
Construction Company, along with the processing fee of $4,000.
Tract No. 14604 consists of 47 single-family lots. The annual cost of maintenance and
incidentals is estimated to be $10,069.75, which will be spread across the 47 lots. The annual
assessment per lot is estimated at $214.25. Details of the assessment costs and distribution are
shown in the attached Engineer's Report. The attached Resolution sets a public'meeting for
November 15, 2004, and a public hearing for December 6, 2004:
Approval of this district will be subject to an assessment ballot process, which requires a
majority approval by the property owners within the proposed district boundary. 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 homebuyers will be
given a disclosure notice by the developer, advising them of the existence of an assessment
district and the proposed annual cost. Since this is a maintenance district, the assessments will
run in perpetuity.
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.

ENGINEER'S REPORT
ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1030
(Magnolia Avenue and Ohio Avenue Area Landscape Maintenance Assessment District)
PETITION -- On February 12, 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 of landscaping along portions of Magnolia Avenue and along portions
of Ohio Avenue, all within Tract No. 14604. 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. 14604 by the City to relieve the City from having to
maintain the areas oflandscaping.
AUTHORIZATION -- On July 7, 2003, by action of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of
San Bernardino, the City Engineer and City Clerk were authorized to initiate proceedings for the formation of
Assessment District No.1 030 (Magnolia Avenue and Ohio Avenue Area 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 February 12,2003, 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, or within
easements granted to the City for landscape maintenance purposes 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 Ohio Avenue, east of Magnolia A venue, and the east side of
Magnolia Avenue, north of Ohio Avenue.
PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS --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.
Engineers Report-AD 1030
DESCRIPTION OF BOUNDARIES -- The boundaries of the proposed district are shown on the
Assessment Boundary Map of Assessment District No. 1030 and are generally described as follows: The centerline
of Ohio A venue on the South, the centerline of Magnolia A venue on the West, the Northerly boundary of Tract
14604 on the North, and the Easterly boundary of Tract No. 14604 on the east.
VICINITY MAP -- A vicinity map showing the general location of the proposed Assessment District is
attached as Exhibit "I".
DISTRICT BOUNDARY 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 (1 residential lot
or unit = 1 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:
1. 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
are not assessable to the District.
Engineers Report-AD 1030
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.
Ohio Avenue is classified as a collector street, and represents 70.61 % of the total area to be maintained;
thus 5% of70.61% of the total cost of maintenance is deemed to be general benefit and will not be assessed to
the District. Magnolia A venue is a local street in this area, and 100% of the cost for maintenance along this area
are assessable to the District as described above. The net cost assessable to the District is shown in Table I.
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. Presently, no parcels
within the district are publicly owned.
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. If there 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.
Engineers Report-AD 1030
ASSESSMENT ROLL -- Presently there are 47 single family parcels within Tract No. 14604, with each
parcel representing 1 assessment unit as described under Method of Assessment, and assessments are spread
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 47 parcels within Tract No. 14604 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.

* Estimate based on full year's interest. Interest charged only on portions that are not pre-funded by the prior years
assessments as stated above. Rate varies based on City's average earnings as stated above.
ASSESSMENT CALCULATION -- Applying the Method of Assessment and Assessment Spread described above,
the following formula is used to determine the assessment arnount per Assessment Unit:
Total Costs + Total Assessment Units = Cost per Assessment Unit
thus
$10,069.75 + 47=$214.25 per Assessment Unit per year

RESOLUTION DECLARING THE INTENTION TO FORM A LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE
ASSESSMENT DISTRICT IN THE MAGNOLIA A VENUE AND OHIO AVENUE AREA (AD 1030)
The estimated cost of the first year's maintenance, as set forth in said Engineer's report, shall be
assessed against the properties involved within the current fiscal year or the fiscal year following
the establishment of the district. Depending on when the costs are assessed relative to when the
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 district has assumed the
responsibility for the maintenance, the properties shall be assessed each year thereafter to establish
a source of pre-funding each year's costs, or for the actual contract and incidental costs. If there
are surplus amounts in the event of pre-funding of costs, then such surplus may be applied as a
credit to the following year's assessment or retained in a reserve to offset future increases. Interest
will be charged on any portion of the assessments, which are not pre-funded through previous
assessments. The interest rate shall be based upon the average rate of the City's current earnings
on invested funds during the period of expenditure. The assessment 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. Said assessments will be collected in perpetuity, or until
terminated by the Mayor and Common Council. Reference is made to said Engineer's Report for
full particulars.
SECTION 6. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public meeting will be held before the
Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino on November 15,2004, at the hour of
4:00 p.m., and that a public hearing will be held on December 6, 2004, at the hour of 4:00 p.m.,
both in the Council Chambers of City Hall, 300 N. "D" Street, San Bernardino, California for the
purpose of determining whether the public convenience and necessity require the formation of the
proposed maintenance district without compliance with the Special Assessment Investigation,
