CITY OF SAN BER"'-_4RDINO - REQUEST .. ")R COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
In May of 1989, Resolution 89-146 was adopted
establishing a surcharge for the construction of the Chestnut
Avenue Storm Drain. In subsequent actions, steps have been
taken to set up an assessment district to pay for this
surcharge. Generally, all new tracts have been conditioned to
pay "their fair share" of the costs associated with the proposed
Chestnut Avenue Storm Drain. This condition may be satisfied by
either paying the $0.09 surcharge (in addition to the regular
storm drain fee of $0.10) or having their property included in
the assessment district.
Since May of 1989, project drawings and an engineer's
estimate have been completed for the project. The original
estimate for construction cost was $1,729,375 and the current
estimate is $2,246,271.00. Changes were required to meet en-
vironmental concerns, extend the drain in to private lands
within the National Forest Service boundary and to acquire
property for the debris basin. Additionally, the assessment
enginee~ working on the district has provided a revised estimate
of the vacant land available to be included in the district,
which is somewhat less than our preliminary estimate.
These changes (in the estimated cost and amount of
vacant land) require that the surcharge be adjusted to a level
of $ 0.13 per square foot, instead of the existing $ 0.09 per
square foot. We recommend that no adjustment be made in the
single family cap in the amount of $2,000 per unit. The change
in area is an adjustment of 6.39% while the cost of the improve-
ment is adjusted by 23%.
We, therefore, recommend adoption of the resolution
amending the surcharge amount from $0.09 to $0.13 per square
foot, in order to assure that sufficient funds will be generated
from the assessments to cover the actual construction costs.
The assessments will be based upon the surcharge.
URGENCY CLAUSE:
Plans and estimates are 95% complete and it is essential that
sufficient surcharge fees be established to ensure adequate
funding of the proposed project. Work is anticipated to begin
in mid July. According to the schedule developed for this
assessment district, the Resolution of Intention will be adopted
on 5-21-90, so the adjustment needs to be done as soon as
possible.
