BACKGROUND: On February 23,2005, Tentative Tract No. 15228 was approved with one of the conditions being the formation of a Landscape Maintenance Assessment District. This condition was placed to relieve the City of the costs of maintenance of the perimeter landscaping and drainage along the slope area on the southerly side of the tract. and to assess these costs to those properties receiving the most benefit. On September 2, 2005, a petition for the formation of a Landscape Maintenance Assessment District was submitted to the City by Dennis Sant of Sant Development, developer of Tract No. 15228, located on the southeasterly corner of Magnolia Avenue and Ohio Avenue in the Verdemont area. The formation fee of $4.000 was also paid on September 2,2005. The petition represented 100% of the property owner(s) within the proposed Assessment District. The final Tract Map was approved on January 26, 2006. Tract No. 15228 consists of 17 single family lots. The annual cost of maintenance and incidentals will be spread across these 17 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 is attached for your review. 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, 5% of 20.2% of all of the proposed maintenance has been determined to be general benefit; therefore, $125.70 is the proportionate general benefit cost. The special benefit portion, which for the first year is estimated to be $14,858.17, will be spread across the 17 lots within the District. The estimated first years cost per lot will be $874. The formation cost in excess of the $4,000 deposited by the developer, which is $1,800, is included in the first years costs and will not be included in subsequent years assessments. 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 September 21, 2006, Resolution No. 2006-331 was adopted, setting a public meeting for October 16, 2006 and a public hearing for November 6, 2006 and preliminarily approving the Engineer's Report. The owner of record, which in this case is the developer, was sent a notice of the meeting and assessment ballots. 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. 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 November 6, 2006.
