STAFF REPORT
Some residents of the Verdemont area have requested that traffic signals be
installed at Palm Avenue and Kendall Drive, and a box culvert be constructed on
Palm Avenue at Cable Creek. In response to these requests, staff was directed
to prepare a Verdemont Area Infrastructure Financing Plan, to identify how these
improvements could be financed at this time, instead of waiting until sufficient
fees were collected from developments.
A plan has been prepared in response to this directive. Financing for these
improvements is shown on this plan to be derived through an assessment district.
The tentative boundaries of the district are shown on the attached map. Since
none of the developed parcels within the district have paid fees to help finance
the cost of these improvements, it is proposed that all parcels, both developed
and undeveloped, be assessed.
It is anticipated that the traffic signals will cost about $120,000 and the box
culvert about $636,000. Since we will not be able to "up front" the $756,000
from City funds, it will be necessary to sell bonds or secure a loan from the
Redevelopment Agency. Estimates of costs and source of funding will be
identified in the Engineer's Report.
Establishing an assessment district requires at least 3 to 4 months. Therefore,
we recommend that authorization to proceed be granted so the proceedings can be
started.
