A RESOLUTION ADDING TERRITORY, AREA 4-235
(624, 630, & 700 T STREET) TO THE CONSOLIDATED
MAINTENANCE DISTRICT; ADOPTING, CONFIRMING
AND APPROVING THE PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S
REPORT, THE BOUNDARIES OF THE ADDITION, THE
FAIRNESS OF THE BENEFIT FORMULA, AND THE
AMOUNT OF THE ASSESSMENT TO BE LEVIED
AGAINST EACH PARCEL. (WARD 1)
WHEREAS, the Public Works Director has filed with the City Clerk the Public
Works Director's Report, including a budget, assessment formula, improvements to be
maintained by the district, description of property and proposed assessments; and
WHEREAS, Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of
Bakersfield provides for a procedure by which the City Council may provide for the
payment of the whole or any part of the costs and expenses of maintaining and operating
any public improvements which are local in nature, from annual benefit assessments
apportioned among the lots or parcels of property within the established Consolidated
Maintenance District ("CMD"). The assessments to be placed on parcels within this district
area reflect that portion of the cost of maintenance of a public park and public street
landscaping ("special benefit") above and beyond the basic cost of maintenance of a
public park and public street landscaping throughout the City ("general benefit"); and
WHEREAS, as set forth in the attached Public Works Director's Report (Exhibit
1), the property within this new area reflects that portion of the cost of maintenance of
public street landscaping and/or a public park, based on the location of said
improvements in or near said area, above and beyond the general benefit of parcels
within the City that are not part of the CMD. Each parcel within this area will be assessed
its proportionate share of special benefit based on its zoning and size.
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the City Council of the City of Bakersfield to add
Area 4-235 (SPR# 19-0246), generally described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto, to the CMD,
in order to maintain local improvements including street landscaping and/or a public park;
and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Bakersfield, State of California,
heretofore by Resolution of Intention No. 2093 declared its intention to add territory to the
CMD, preliminarily confirmed and approved the Public Works Director's Report, the
boundaries of the proposed additional territory, the fairness of the benefit formula, and
the amount of assessment to be levied against each parcel. Said additional territory shall
be designated Area 4-235, as shown and designated on that certain map entitled "Map
and Assessment Diagram for Addition of Territory, Area 4-235 (624, 630, & 700 T Street), to
the Consolidated Maintenance District, Bakersfield, California," for this fiscal year on file in
the offices of the City Clerk and Public Works Director, City of Bakersfield; and

PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT
ADDITION OF TERRITORY, AREA 4-235
Fiscal Year 2020-2021
Addition of territory to the Consolidated Maintenance District, as shown in Exhibit "A" is
described as 624, 630, & 700 T Street and as specifically shown on Map and Assessment
Diagram marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as
though fully set forth, as an area within the City of Bakersfield.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of
Bakersfield, referred to as the Maintenance District Procedure, the Public Works Director
makes and files this report and proposed assessment of and upon all parcels of property
within the area for the cost of maintaining a public park and public street medians and other
public street landscaping. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to,
recreation and sports equipment including swings, slides, play structures and storage
buildings; picnic facilities including tables, benches, barbecues, trash cans, drinking fountains
and restrooms; irrigation system including water mains, sprinklers, fountains, and electrical
wires, conduits and timers; plant forms including trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf; and
sidewalks and walkways now existing or hereafter to be constructed or planted in and for
said area and are of a public nature. The assessment includes the cost of necessary repairs,
replacement, water, electricity, care, supervision and any and all other items necessary for
the proper maintenance and operation thereof, and all additions and improvements
thereto which may hereafter be made.
For many years, public parks, public streets median and other public street landscaping
improvements in the City were maintained through traditional tax revenues. After Proposition
13, in 1978, funds available for maintenance and operation of parks, street median and
other street landscaping improvements were substantially reduced. At present, the City's
budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of park and street landscaping
improvements of the type described above. Thus, without funds for maintenance and
operating costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new
public parks, street median and other street landscaping improvements to be constructed
within the City.
Additional territory, as shown in Exhibit "E" is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance
District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street
landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers in the Consolidated
Maintenance District so that each parcel will be assessed the same amount as other parcels
receiving a similar benefit.
All parcels within this area shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in
Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit "C") per
parcel. In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living
reflected in the Los Angeles -Riverside -Orange County/All Urban Consumers Consumer,M&q

Index. However, parcels will not be assessed until park and/or street landscaping have been
installed. When park and/or street landscape improvements have been completed, the
appropriate park and street tier levels will be assigned, but in no case shall the assessments
exceed the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated per the above
described Consumer Price Index.
All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will
be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement
and open space enjoyment.
A public park will benefit all the residential lots and public median and street landscaping
will benefit all the lots or parcels and will be assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis
throughout the area. The Benefit Formula is set forth herein as Exhibit "C" and attached
hereto and incorporated in this resolution as though fully set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, I, NICK FIDLER, Director of Public Works of the City of Bakersfield,
by virtue of the power vested in me and the order of the Council of said City, hereby submit
the Fiscal Year 2020-2021 Budget and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "D" and Exhibit "E,"
respectively, attached hereto and incorporated herein as though fully set forth, upon all
parcels of property within additional territory subject to be assessed to pay the cost of
maintenance and operation in said area.

On January 12, 2005 the city passed Resolution 19-05 which allowed for an escalator on the maximum assessment. Any areas formed after
Proposition 218 and which have ballots which include this escalator may be increased according to their ballot terms.
A parcel may be added to the City of Bakersfield Consolidated Maintenance District if any of the below conditions occurs:
1. Bakersfield Municipal code 13.04.021:
"It is the policy of the city to include within a maintenance district all new developments that are subject to the Subdivision Map

requesting formation of a maintenance district, or joining a maintenance district, as a condition of a zone change, or general
plan amendment, or conditional use permit, or during site plan review where deemed necessary by the city."
2. Bakersfield Municipal Code 13.04.022 (A):
"No final map or certificate of compliance for a parcel map waiver may be recorded absent establishment of a maintenance
district to provide for all future maintenance of any landscaping in the public right-of-way and of any public park required as a
condition of approval of the development project for the area covered by the final map or parcel map waiver."
3. City staff determines this is necessary as part of: Site Plan Review Conditions, Zone Change, a General Plan Amendment, or a
Conditional Use Permit.
Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDU) shall be assigned using the following policy. EDU's may also be adjusted given special conditions or
agreements as necessary to adequately reflect the conditions of the site at the time of formation. Developed Parcels will be assessed by
