This petition was the result of a requirement placed upon this Tract by the City to relieve the Department of Parks and Recreation from having to maintain the areas. AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED -- On December 8,1986. notification of this petition was presented to your Honorable Body by this office and the City Engineer and City Clerk were authorized to initiate proceedings under the provisions of Chapter 12.90 of the San Bernardino Municipal Code and the City Engineer was directed to prepare this report. ADVANCE OF ESTIMATED COSTS -- On December 9. 1986 and pursuant to Chapter 12.90 of the Municipal Code. the developer was requested to up front the estimated cost of $3.000.00 to cover the cost of the proceedings. The deposit was received on February 18. 1987 and was deposited into the proper account from which to draw the actual costs of proceed- ings. If the actual costs are less than the deposit. then the remainder will be returned to the developer and if the actual costs are more than the deposit, then the remainder can either be paid in a lump sum by the developer or assessed against the properties involved. EASEMENTS -- Although the property is presently undeveloped. when the Tract is recorded. certain easements will be granted on the Tract Map to the City to allow the district to maintain the areas which are outside of the dedicated rights of way as the district cannot function on private property. DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS -- The improvements to be maintained includes a strip of ground cover on the South side of the Piedmont Drive between the East and West boundaries of Tentative Tract No. 13329 .and on the North side of Citrus Street. between the East and West boundaries of Tentative Tract No. 13329. .3/toln o o o o PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS -- Plans and Specifications for the landscaping are being prepared by the developer and must be approved by the Department of Parks and Recreation and must provide for separate watering systems. electric and water meters which can be monitored and billed directly to the assessment district for inclusion into the annual assessment rolls after a one year plant guarantee period by the developer. DESCRIPTION OF BOUNDARIES -- On February 18. 1986. the boundaries of the proposed district were determined and are delineated on the attached Proposed Boundary Map of Assessment District No. 982. The property involved is bounded on the north by the centerline of Piedmont Drive. on the south by the center1 i ne of Ci trus Street. on the east by the east line of Tentative Tract No. 13329 .and on the west by the west line of Tentative Tract No. 13329 . VICINITY MAP -- The vicinity map is attached as Exhibit 1. DISTRICT BOUNDARY MAP -- A reduced copy of the District Boundary Map is attached as Exhibit 2. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT -- Landscaping and its proper maintenance enhances the esthetics of any given area and the benefit received by the owners of properties in the area is determined to be equal to the number of households who utilize the landscaped areas either as ingress and egress to the households or by actual physical use of the land as in the case of "open areas". The boundaries of the proposed district are drawn with this in mind and the Resolution of Intention delineates the specific areas of maintenance which will benefit all of the properties within the boundaries. Hence. each residential unit. be it a single family residence. a condominium or an appartment will be assessed an equal share in the cost of maintenance (1 residential unit - 1 assessment). Under a cituation where vacant land is included within the district. the property will be arbitrarily divided into 7.200 square foot lots minus 25: of the area for anticipated future streets and will be assessed accordingly. When the property actually subdivides. it will be assessed on the 1 residential unit - 1 assessment basis. 2 ,,- . 3/to/<l} o METHOD no. OF FINANCING -- When the ~ndscaping is actually in place and has been maintained in good order by the developer for the one (1) year plant guarantee period, the assessment district will take over the maintenance and will let contracts therefor on a fiscal year basis. The fiscal year basis is for assessment purposes as the County Tax Rolls are prepared on the same basis. The City will upfront the costs of the annual contract and will be reimbursed each year through assessments, plus interest, and collected on the annual County Tax bills. Eventually,. these costs will come from the City's Assessment District Reserve Fund, presently they come from the General Fund. o ASSESSMENT ROLL -- Presently there are 3 vacant parcels liable to be assessed which constitutes 58 family units according to formula. When the Tract is complete, there will be 53 assessments. The proposed assesssment roll has been prepared to reflect the first assessment (cost of proceedings only), attached as Exhibit 3 and prepared to reflect the estimated maintenance and administration cost for one year, attached as Exhibit 4. Although the assessment roll as attached represents the vacant land, when built out each assessment would be estimated at $ 78.96 each for subsequent years. BONDS -- No bonds are to be sold on this proposed assessment district. The costs will be up-fronted by the City and the assessments will be collected on the County Tax bill annually based on actual annual costs incurred for the maintenance and administration of the district plus i nteres t. 3 SP6/1? o o o o ENGINEER'S STATEMENT The above information together with the attached Assessment District Map and Proposed Assessment Roll is being filed pursuant to Chapter 12.90 of the San 8ernardino Municipal Code relative to the forthcoming Resolution of Intention for the establishment of an Assessment District to be known as Assessment District No.982. .I Engineer Filed in the office of the City Clerk this day of . 19_. 5 3/tD/d7 . o o o o COST SUMMARY FIRST YEAR: Cost of proceedings only, estimated at (See Exhibit 3) $3,000.00 ..........a...=...........=.............=.............................=.....==== SUBSEQUENT YEARS -- maintenance and administration annually.

HARDGRAVE, Dir. of From Publ ic WorkslCity Engineer Date April 2, 1987 File No. 14.40-55 Approved Date This item was continued, at the Council Meeting of 3-23-87, in order to allow time to review the status of the drainage easement along the westerly boundary of Tract No. 13329. A neighborhood meeting was held at 5:00 p.m. on 3-27-87, in the home of Mr. Robert Dudley, 3059 Pinon Court. About 8 residences were represented at this meeting. Councilman Maudsley was also present. Those in attendance expressed concerns about the maintenance of the approxi- mate 11 foot area, including the existing concrete flume. Also, they questioned the need to retain the flume. Mr. Richard Genzel, Engineering Project Manager for the Hill Williams Company, explained that the flume was needed to serve as an amergency overflow for the sump condition at the catch basins on Piedmont Drive. Mr. Genzel also indicated that the Hill Williams Company would be willing to gunite the approximate 2 feet wide strip between the east wall of the flume and the block wall they will be installing along their rear property 1 ines. Councilman Maudsley indicated that the City would attempt to locate funds to finance placing gunte in the approximate 4 feet wide strip between the west wall of the flume and the existing walls along the rear property lines of lots abutting Pinon Court. Manuel Moreno, Director of Public Services, has agreed to do the necessary excavation for the 4-foot strip. Richard Genzel will obtain a price from the Contractor for placing the gunite. We are presently out to bid for the extension of the storm drain, (to be installed by Tract No. 13329) south of Citrus Street. Funds allocated for the extension of this storm drain could be used to finance the guniting cost, since it is the same master plan facil ity. Maintenance of this drainage easement will be minimal, due to the gunite placed to control weeds. Therefore, we recommend that the resolution, re- ,," 0 fO~ L ',p' "",',"'" A"",,,,, Di""". b, 'ppeo"d. G. HARDGRAV Director of Public WorkslCity Engineer RGH:rs cc: M. Moreno @
