Landscape and Street Lighting District Assessment Adjustment (mail-in election authorization)
Initiated by: Council Direction Jul. 9, 2019
Public Works Director Council approved $25,000 in
the FY 2023-2024 Budget to
study the District rates and to
consider creating a new
supplemental district. The
study will seek to address the
annual operating deficit, so that
no further subsidies from the
General Fund or other
discretionary funds would be
required. The study should
include District-related
recommendations from the
Parks Master Plan, thereby,
shifting completion of the study
to FY 2024-25. The study is
anticipated to take
approximately 4 to 6 months to
complete pending staff
availability. If council agrees to
then advance the adjustment, it
will need to go to a city-wide
ballot in compliance with
Proposition 218.

City Attorney The City will develop a
licensing agreement for
commercial uses of the City
logo as part of a comprehensive
Administrative Memorandum
(AM) on City Branding and
Logo Use by City Staff. City
4 staff will begin drafting the
AM after finalizing the City’s
style guide and filing its “Intent
to Use” trademark application
for the City logo with the
USPTO. As part of developing
a Licensing Agreement for the
Commercial Use of the City
Logo, staff will establish a
process for reviewing and
handling these requests. This
process will likely include the
negotiation of royalties and as
well as the preparation of a
staff report to obtain Council
approval to enter into the
agreement. Only once after the
City receives the issuance of a
Notice of Allowance from the
USPTO can it begin approving
applications for commercial
uses of the logo.
