•

13.09.100 Adjustments.

A. It is the intent of the provisions of this chapter, in establishing different sewer service charges for different categories of properties, to reflect the benefit from such service to each property. If, in respect to any customer, the Council should find that the charge is inequitable, or unfair because of unusual circumstances, it may establish a special service charge for such customer, differing from those otherwise established which will bear a closer relationship to the benefit received from the City system. Such special charge may be revoked at any time by the Council whenever it finds that continuation thereof would be inequitable or unfair under the circumstances then prevailing.

B. The owner of any premises who by reason of special circumstances finds that the applicable rates are unjust or inequitable as applied to his or her premises may make written application to the Director of Public Works, stating the circumstances and requesting a different basis of charges for such premises. If such application is approved, the Council may fix and establish fair and equitable rates for such premises to be effective as of the date of such application and continuing during the period of such special circumstances.

13.09.110 Refunds.

When any refund becomes due and owing by virtue of action of the City Councilor by virtue of any error made in ascertaining the charge applicable to any customer, the Director of Public Works is authorized to make payable such moneys from the specific fund established for the deposit of sewer service charges.

Subject: Lancaster Maintenance District Annexations
Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 22-39, announcing results of an assessment ballot procedure, ordering the annexation of territory into the Lancaster Maintenance Districts, and ordering the levy and collection of assessments therein.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no impact to the City’s General Fund as the properties within the Annexations will be assessed for the services being provided. Exhibit 1 contains a listing of all properties and into which Districts they are to being annexed.

Background:

The Lancaster Maintenance Districts, separately known as the Lancaster Lighting Maintenance District, the Landscape Maintenance District and the Drainage Maintenance District (the “Districts”) were formed to provide a dedicated funding source for the maintenance, operations, servicing and installation of public lighting, public landscaping and public drainage facilities within the City of Lancaster. The District properties, which include the Annexations, benefit from the services provided and are assessed their proportionate share of the costs for each District.

The Annexations being considered tonight include projects from fiscal year 2019-2020, 2020-2021 and 2021-2022. Due to the Covid19 situation with staff working remotely and staff turnover/changes, the annexation process has been delayed. As a result, there are a total of 50 projects being finalized tonight. Normally there would be approximately 15 to 20 annexations annually.

Each property owner within the proposed Annexations was mailed an assessment ballot, notice of public hearing and waiver and consent to annex into the Districts. The returned Assessment Ballots will be tabulated after the close of the public hearing. 9 4
6 For Fiscal Year 2021-2022, the Lighting assessment is $109.08 per lighting unit; the Landscaping assessment is $119.57 per unit; and the Drainage Assessment is $74.74 per unit. These amounts included the annual CPI factor for Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County of 0.97%.

For Fiscal Year 2022-2023, the Lighting assessment is $117.15 per lighting unit; the Landscaping assessment is $128.42 per unit; and the Drainage Assessment is $80.27 per unit. These amounts included the annual CPI factor for Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County of 7.40%. These adjusted rates will apply to any annexation taking place for 2022-2023.

Location maps can be located on the City’s website at
