PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT
FOR THE
CONSOLIDATED MAINTENANCE DISTRICT
City of Bakersfield
Fiscal Year 1999-2000
City of Bakersfield Consolidated Maintenance District and its various areas are generally
described in Exhibit "A" and are specifically as shown on the Map and Assessment Diagram under
Exhibit "B", attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth, for the
various areas of benefit within the Consolidated Maintenance District, a district within the City of
Bakersfield, County of Kern, State of California.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City
of Bakersfield, the Public Works Director makes and files this Report and proposed assessment of and
upon all parcels of property within the areas of the district for the cost of maintaining and operating
public parks, public street medians and other public street landscaping improvements. The
improvements for the Consolidated Maintenance District Street Landscaping Zone of Benefit generally
include, but are not limited to: Public Street Landscaping Improvements consisting of: tuff, plant
forms, shrubs, ground cover, trees, lighting, irrigation systems, conduits, water mains; and Public Street
Median Improvements consisting of: turf, plant forms, shrubs, ground cover, trees, irrigation systems,
conduits and water mains. The improvements for the Consolidated Maintenance District Park Zone of
Benefit generally include, but are not limited to: tuff, plant forms, shrubs, ground cover, trees, irrigation
systems, conduits, water mains, playground equipment, picnic tables, drinking fountains, barbecue pits,
security lighting and restrooms.
The improvements in this Consolidated Maintenance District are of a public nature. The
assessment includes the cost of necessary repairs, replacement, water, equipment, electricity, care,
supervision and any and all other items necessary for the proper maintenance and operation thereof.
For many years, parks, street medians and other street landscaping improvements in the
City were maintained through traditional tax revenues. After the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978,
funds available for maintenance and operation of local public improvements were substantially reduced.
At present the City's budget does not allow for maintenance and operation of local public improvements
of the types described above. Thus, absent funds for maintenance and operating costs from a source
other than general tax revenues, the City does not permit new parks, public street median or other public
street landscaping improvements to be constructed within the City. The funds generated as the result
of this district are utilized strictly for the purpose of and applied to the maintenance and upkeep of public
parks, public street median and other public street landscaping within the district. The Consolidated
Maintenance District has been specifically designated to address park maintenance and operation, and
maintenance of public street median and other public street landscaping improvements and all parcels
within the district are affected.
EXHIBIT "1"
The areas within the boundary of the Consolidated Maintenance District receive benefits
from the improvements and maintenance thereof. These benefits include street beautification, open
space enjoyment, recreation and noise reduction due to the installation of street landscaping, walls, and
parks.
The benefits from the installation of street landscaping accrue to all the lot or parcel owners
within the Consolidated Maintenance District Street Landscaping Zone of Benefit. The benefits of the
street landscaping inure to all lots or parcels uniformly, and are based on a per dwelling unit or
Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis.
Park use is a benefit most likely to be enjoyed by each resident in the Park Zone of
Benefit. These benefits are, therefor, uniformly assessed on a dwelling unit or Equivalent Dwelling Unit
basis. No assessment for park benefits is made on the non-residential lots.
The benefit formula for the Consolidated Maintenance District is set forth in Exhibit "C"
attached hereto and incorporated herein as though fully set forth.
The City has identified those amenities outside the Consolidated Maintenance District
whose maintenance is currently paid for out of the General Fund and to provide a credit up to that same
level to those within the Consolidated Maintenance District. The assessments contained within this
report for the Consolidated Maintenance District have been amended to reflect a 66% subsidy in
maintenance costs for parks and a 7.3% subsidy in costs for street and median landscaping. This year,
due to the passage of Proposition 218, assessment rates and methodology will not change and therefore
the rates for 1999-2000 will remain at the 1998-99 level.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RAUL M. ROJAS, Public Works Director 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 1999-2000 Budget attached hereto as Exhibit "D" and Assessment Roll as set forth in
Exhibit "E", on file in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated herein as though fully set forth. upon
all parcels of property within the various areas of benefit of the Consolidated Maintenance District,
subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said district.
