'CITY OF SAN BER~RDINO - REQUEST-.iOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT Assessment District No. 994 will generate funds to finance the costs included in the 1990/91 Budget for street sweeping (once a month) and street lighting system. The proposed budget includes a total amount of $2,515,838 for these services. This amount, referred to as "Net Proceeds," could be amended in the approved budget. Since this amount will be financed with assessments, the funds budgeted for these services will be "freed up" and can be allocated to police services.'" Funds to finance the second street sweeping per month, and enhance our street lighting system, will also be raised through the assessment district. The amount of these enhanced services is $455,229. In addition, funds will be included in the district to finance the rebate program (for low income and senior citizens) and administrative costs. The total amount to be assessed is $3,065,892. Assessments will be based upon Basic Assessment Units (AU) . A single family residence will be assigned one AU. Multi-family units will also be assigned one AU. Other uses will be based upon equivalent AU's, as outlined in Exhibit "A" of the Engineer's Report. The estimated annual assessment for the 1990/91 Fiscal Year is $48.00 per AU. Of this amount, about $40.00 will be designated for police services. Increases in annual assessments may not exceed the Consumer Price Index. The Engineer's Report sta~s that the "Net Proceeds" will be used for law enforcement services. Also, that all assessments and expenditures shall be reviewed each year by the Mayor and Council at .a public hearing. The Mayor and Council must either make a determination that the entire "Net Proceeds" are being spent on law enforcement, or terminate the district. A provision is also included in the Engineer's Report that the district shall automatically terminate after five (5) years, unless the Mayor and Council, after a public hearing, extend the life of the district. The Resolution of Intention preliminarily determines that the public convenience and necessity require the formation of a street lighting and street sweeping district and declares the intention to proceed to order work within the district known as the "City-Wide Street Lighting and Street Sweeping District," and sets a public hearing. The public hearing will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 6-27-90, in the Sturges Auditorium. We recommend that the Resolution of Intention be adopted, in order to set a public hearing. 5-16-90 .,o;..n'R4 ~ . . .. . . '" . ~ . o ~ .. . .
