CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Assessment District No. 994 was established in July of 1990, to provide funding for the existing City
wide street sweeping and street lighting programs. These services had been previously funded from the
General Fund. The savings to the General Fund, by funding these services from the assessment district, were
committed for additional law enforcement services. The Assessment District had a five year sunset clause and
was due to expire in June of 1995.
On January 10, 1994, authorization was given to extend the term of the assessment district, expand
the boundaries to include newly annexed areas and to expand the services of the district to include City-wide
traffic signal maintenance and operation and graffiti removal. Since these services were previously funded
from the General Fund, this action freed up funds, in particular to provide matching funds for additional
officers under the Clinton Crime Bill.
After a public meeting and public hearing were held, Resolution No, 94-198 was adopted on July 18,
1994, approving the extension and expansion of the district. A finding must be made each year, that the net
proceeds of the district were spent on law enforcement. Attached is a memo from the Finance Director stating
that net proceeds were spent on law enforcement and a breakdown of police expenditures.
The percentage of increase (if any) over a prior year's assessments is limited to the Consumer Price
Index (C.P.I) , which is 1.746% for the San Bernardino-Riverside area for the one year period ending March,
1996.
The proposed assessment roll is the sum of the 1996/97 budgets for street lighting, street sweeping,
traffic signal maintenance and graffiti removal, including administrative costs. For 1995/96, the total was
$4,446,202.56. The amount per assessment unit, which is the assessment for a single family residence, was
$66.02 The proposed roll for 1996/97 is $ 4,292,800 ( calculated to $4,292,088.23 due to rounding of
individual assessment amounts), which calculates to $64.02 per assessment unit, a decrease from last year.
For comparison, a breakdown of the various components of the total assessment is as follows:
1995/96 1996/97
Street Lighting $ 2,084,000 $ 1,958,300
Street Sweeping $ 1,188,700 $ 1,188,700
Traffic Signals $ 797,900 $ 769,700
Graffiti Removal $ 345,602 $ 346,100
Administrative Costs $ 30,000 $ 30,000
-------------- --------------
TOTAL $ 4,446,202 $ 4,292,800
The decrease is due to a decrease in energy costs for street lighting and traffic signals
Under the current district, this is the last assessment roll, since the district terminates on July 18, 1997.
Any extensions and/or modifications to the district will require that the appropriate proceedings take place,
which includes a public meeting and public hearing.
We recommend that the 1996/97 Assessment Roll No. 994 be approved.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: ROGER HARDGRAVE, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
FROM: BARBARA PACHON, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
SUBJECT: ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 994
DATE: JUNE 19, 1996
COPIES MAYOR MINOR; COMMON COUNCIL; SHAUNA CLARK, CITY
ADMINISTRATOR; FRED WILSON, ASST. CITY ADMINISTRATOR
This memo confirms that in compliance with the Engineer' s Report
dated July 18, 1994, for Assessment District No. 994, an excess of
the "net proceeds" for FY 95-96, as defined in said Engineer' s
Report, has been spent on law enforcement services . The net
proceeds are defined to be the total amount which would otherwise
be budgeted for street sweeping (not included the enhanced street
sweeping or additional equipment) and street lighting.
When expanded in 1994 the district generated new funds for citywide
graffiti removal and traffic signal maintenance. It was agreed
that a portion of those new revenues would be diverted to the
Police Department to provide a match for 17 additional sworn
positions .
The net proceeds of the district, along with the new revenue
generated by the expansion, total $4, 034, 600 .
In the FY 1989-90 base year, prior to when Assessment District 994
was enacted, the City expended a total of $20, 820, 824 on Police
Services . The current estimate that will be expended in FY 1995-96
on Police Services is $31, 900, 000 . This is $11, 079, 176 more than
the FY 1989-90 base year which exceeds the Assessment District
requirements .
Attached is a summary comparison, by Police Department Division,
between what was expended in FY 1989-90 and what is projected for
FY 1995-96 . It should also be noted that there were 70 more
positions budgeted in FY 1995-96 than there was in FY 1989-90 .
Please let me know if you have any questions .
