L /" f 1,.., .. ' CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO ENGINEER'S REPORT ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 969 PETITION -- On September 18. 1985. this office received a petition from SUNFLOWER PROPERTIES, INC. for the establ ishment of an assessment district for the maintenance of landscaping for Tentative Tracts No. 10182, 10185, 12816, 12817 and 13243 as delineated on the attached vicinity map. This petition was the result of a requirement placed upon these Tracts by the City to relieve the Department of Parks and Recreation from having to maintain the areas. AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED -- On October 10, 1985, 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 October 10, 1985.and pursuant to Chapter 12.94.030 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 May 19, 1987, and was deposited into the proper account from which to draw the actual costs of proceedings. 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 -- No easements for the maintenance of landscaping beyond the dedicated street right-of-way are required at this time. DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS -- The improvements to be maintained include a strip of ground cover on the South side of Irvington Avenue for the entire distance within the boundaries of the district together with a small strip of Olive Avenue, North of the Cable Creek Channel. 1 , , c ~...... ..-.,., .-...) :) PLANS AND SPECIFICATJONS -- Plans and Specifications for the landscaping will be 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 quarantee period by the developer. DESCRIPTION OF BOUNDARIES -- On September 24, 1985, the boundaries of the proposed district were determined and are delineated on the attached Proposed Boundary Map of Assessment District No. 969. The property involved presently is a portion of Irvington Land and Water Company Subdivision and encumpasses the property lying generally Southerly of Irvington Avenue, Northerly of the Cable Creek Channel, Easterly of Olive Avenue and Westerly of Gregory Street. 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 assessmentl. 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 . c ".~,... /'"", ~ '--' '-' METHOD OF FINANCING ~- When the landscaping is actually in place and has been maintained in good order by the developer for the one 0) year plant guarantee period, the assessment di strict 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. ASSESSMENT ROLL -- Presently there are 4 vacant parcels liable to be assessed which constitute 138 family units according to formula. When the Tracts are actually in place, their will be 121 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 $37.25 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 interest for repayment to the City. 3 c ......
