RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adopting the resolutions of intention.
BACKGROUND:
Written requests have been received by the City Engineer from the owners of the parcels to be included into the Consolidated Maintenance District as required by section 13.04.021 of the Municipal Code.
Inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance District will provide for the maintenance of parks and/or street landscaping. For an area where a park has been constructed and/or street landscaping has already been installed, the area will be under the park and streetscape zones of benefit and will be assigned appropriate tier levels during the next annual update to the consolidated maintenanc e district. For an area where a park and/or street landscaping has not been installed, the area will be assigned appropriate tier levels when improvements are constructed.
The City of Bakersfield has received a letter from the owners of the properties listed above which waived the public hearing concerning inclusion in the Consolidated Maintenance District. This allows the City to expedite the maintenance district process to satisfy subdivision requirements. The owners have also submitted a Proposition 218 ballot indicating their consent to the assessments.
In order to provide future property owners with disclosure regarding the inclusion of land in the Consolidated Maintenance District and the estimated maximum annual cost per equivalent dwelling unit, a covenant has been drafted and will be recorded with the Kern County Assessor‐Recorder's Office upon approval of these Resolutions.
Staff recommends the new territories be added to the Consolidated Maintenance District at the next City Council meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The revenue from Maintenance Assessment Districts partially supports ongoing maintenance in the districts for the year. There is some General Fund support on an annual basis for the short fall in the CMD revenue collected citywide.
COUNCIL GOAL:
Reliable Infrastructure
