CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO — REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
SUBJECT:
Public meeting—4:00 p.m., formation of a Landscape Maintenance Assessment District M the
Ohio Avenue and Chestnut Avenue Area(Tract No. 14881 —AD 1049).
BACKGROUND:
On May 16, 2006, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map No. 14881, located
to the north of Ohio Avenue and west of Chestnut Avenue.
On July 31, 2006, Sant Development, the developer of this property, submitted a petition for the
formation of a landscape maintenance assessment district, as required by the conditions of
approval for the development of this site. The formation of this District will assess the special
benefit costs of maintaining the landscaping and appurtenances to the owners of the properties
benefiting from the maintenance area. The areas to be maintained by the District will be
landscaping within slopes along portions of the northerly side of Ohio Avenue and within slopes
along portions of the westerly side of Chestnut Avenue, and also including a drainage channel
north of Tentative Tract 14881. The developer has paid the required $4,000 formation fee.
Tract No. 14881 consists of 15 single-family lots. The annual cost of maintenance and
incidentals will be spread across these 15 lots. Part of the formation proceedings includes the
preparation of an Engineer's Report, which details the costs necessary to carry out the ongoing
maintenance of landscaping and drainage channel, and is filed in the City Clerk's Office. The
drainage channel will be removed when the property to the north of the channel is developed. As
required by law, only special benefit may be assessed to properties within an assessment district.
Any benefit found to be a general benefit may not be assessed to the District. As set forth in the
Engineer's Report, portions of the landscaping along Ohio Avenue has been deemed to be of a
general benefit. The general benefit portion of the annual cost of maintenance is estimated to be
$232.84, and cannot be assessed to the District. This amount will need to be paid from the
general fund or other non-district fund source. The special benefit portion of the annual cost of
maintenance, including all incidental expenses, is estimated to be $7,185.15. This amount will
be spread across the 15 units within the District and the annual maintenance cost per unit will be
$479.01. The Engineer's Report allows for annual increases of CPI (Consumer Price Index), or
5%, whichever is less, to cover increases in maintenance costs. Increases over this amount will
either need to be approved by the property owners within the District, or be paid for by the City.
On October 16, 2006, Resolution of Intention No. 2006-361 was adopted, setting a public
meeting for November 20, 2006 and a public hearing for December 4, 2006 and preliminarily
approving the Engineer's Report. Notice of the meeting and assessment ballots were mailed to
the owner of record. Since the developer still owns all of the lots, a majority protest is not
anticipated. Future property owners will purchase the lots subject to the Assessment District and
will be given disclosure of the District and assessments by the developer or subsequent property
owners, as required by law.
Staff Report— continued
The public meeting is only an informational meeting and no action can be taken regarding the
formation of the assessment district until the public hearing. At the conclusion of the hearing, the
results of the assessment ballots returned will be submitted. Ballots are weighted in proportion to
the assessment amount. The formation of the district requires that at least 50% of the ballots
returned show support for the proposed district or that protests submitted, be 50%, or less, of the
total assessment. Formation of the assessment district will require the adoption of a resolution
and will require a four-fifths (4/5) affirmative vote of the council members present and voting.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Applicant has paid the $4,000 processing fee. Estimated costs of annual maintenance, including
additional formation costs, will be assessed back to property owners within the Assessment
District.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the public meeting be closed and that any protests or ballots submitted be
carried forward to the public hearing on December 4, 2006.
