Executive Summary
The assessment of an annual fee upon properties within each assessment district provides the revenue to offset the cost of maintenance of the public improvements within each assessment district.
Annually, the Mayor and City Council must consider and adopt resolutions declaring the intent to levy and collect assessments within the various assessment districts in the City. These resolutions call for a public hearing for each Engineer’s Report which determines the amount of the maximum assessment allowable for each district and specifies the amount that will be levied on assessable lots and parcels of property within each assessment district for the upcoming fiscal year.
Background
The City Council adopted Resolution 2024-080 on May 1, 2024 initiating proceedings to levy and collect assessments for Fiscal Year 2024-25 in various assessment districts previously established by the City of San Bernardino and ordered the preparation of an engineer’s report for each assessment district. The Engineer’s Reports which have been prepared by Spicer Consulting Group, LLC, the Engineer of Record, detail the assessments proposed to be levied on assessable lots and parcels of property within each of the assessment districts and have been filed with the City Clerk.
Discussion
The amount of the assessments which are proposed to be levied on all parcels of assessable land within each assessment district has been determined pursuant the methodology in the Engineer’s Report and is based on special benefit conferred upon each such parcel from the payment of the cost of the maintenance, servicing, and operation of the public improvements.
The Engineer’s Reports detailing the assessments proposed to be levied and collected from the owners of property within the City’s various assessment districts for Fiscal Year 2024-25 to pay the costs of the maintenance, servicing and operating of public landscaping, landscaping and lighting, sewer lift stations, landscaping and sewer lift stations, landscaping (only), detention basin and storm drains and appurtenant facilities during Fiscal Year 2024-25 for each assessment district are attached to this report.
