The land within the exterior boundaries shown on the map shall be designated "City of Bakersfield Assessment District No. 03-1 (Brighton Place/Silver Creek 1I), County of Kern, State of California". NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL HEREBY FINDS, DETERMINES AND RESOLVES as follows: 1. By its Resolution No. 046-03, adopted on March 26, 2003 ("Resolution No. 046-03"), this Council accepted a petition submitted by the owner of property situated in the City of Bakersfield (the "City"), requesting the establishment of an assessment district to be known as "Assessment District No. 03-1 (Brighton Place/Silver Creek Il/Seven Oaks Commemial)" (the "Proposed Assessment District") for the purpose of providing for the acquisition and/or construction of certain public improvements described in the petition, the cost 40213-30 SS4 of which is to be specifically assessed against each parcel of land benefiting from such improvements. Since the adoption of Resolution No. 046-03, the property owner submitting the petition has requested (a) deletion from the Proposed Assessment District of that portion pertaining to the Seven Oaks Commemial and (b) revision of the name of the Proposed Assessment District to "Assessment District No. 03-1 (Brighton Place/Silver Creek II)." By its action to approve the Boundary Map, as set forth in the second recital paragraph above, this Council has granted such request and adopted the revised name as requested, and said revised name shall be used in this resolution and future proceedings respecting the Proposed Assessment District. 2. This Council intends to levy a special assessment upon designated pOrtions of the land within the Proposed Assessment District in accordance with the special benefit to be received by each parcel of land, respectively, from the improvement. 3. Where any disparity occurs in level or size between the improvement and private property, this Council determines that it is in the public interest and more economical to eliminate the disparity by doing work on the private property instead of adjusting the work on public property. Accordingly, work may be done on private property for this purpose with the written consent of the landowner. 4. This City Council intends, pursuant to subparagraph (f) of Section 10204 of the California Streets and Highways Code, to provide for an annual assessment upon each of the parcels of land in the Proposed Assessment District to pay various costs and expenses incunced from time to time by the City and not otherwise reimbursed to the City which result from the administration and collection of assessment installments or from the administration or registration of the improvement bonds and the various funds and accounts pertaining thereto.

Bonds representing unpaid assessments, and beating interest at a rate not to exceed twelve percent (12%) per annum, will be issued in the manner provided by the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10, Streets and Highways Code), and the last installment of the bonds shall mature not to exceed twenty-four (24) years from the second day of September next succeeding twelve (12) months from their date. 6. The procedure for the collection of assessments and advance retirement of bonds under the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 shall be as provided in Part 11.1, Division 10, of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California. 7. The City will not obligate itself to advance available funds from the City treasury to cure any deficiency which may occur in the bond redemption fund. A determination not to obligate itself shall not prevent the City from, in its sole discretion, so advancing funds. 8. This Council appoints the Director of Public Works of the City as Engineer of Work for this project, and directs the preparation of the report containing the matters required by Section 10204 of the Streets and Highways Code, as supplemented by Section 4 of Article XIIID of the California Constitution. 9. In the opinion of this Council, the public interest will not be served by allowing owners of assessable lands to enter into a contract for the work of improvement as otherwise permitted in Section 20485 of the Public Contract Code. 10. The amount of any surplus remaining in the improvement fund after completion of the improvement and payment of all claims shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 10427.1 of the Streets and Highways Code. 40213-30 SS4 I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was passed and adopted by the Council of the City of Bakersfield at a regular meeting thereof held on April 30, 2003, by the following vote: AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: ABSENT: CARSON, BENHAM, MAGGARD, COUCH, HANSON, SULLIVAN, SALVAGGIO COUNCILMEMBER COUNCILMEMBER ~ COUNCILMEMBER ~ COUNCILMEMBER ~ City Clerk and Ex Officio Clerk of the Council of the City of Bakersfield APPROVED this 30th day of April, 2003 /, MAYOR of the City of Bakersfield APPROVED AS TO FORM: ORRICK, HERR1NGTON & SUTCLIFFE LLP Bond Counsel COUNTERSIGNED: CITY ATTORNEY of the F ~/ City of Bakersfield DOCSSFl:674136.1 40213-30 SS4 4 EXHIBIT A DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS The Assessment District No. 03-i ("AD 03-1") Improvements include the construction and installation as separate systems of certain City of Bakersfield ("City") owned infrastructure improvements, or certain utility system improvements to be owned and operated by regulated public utility companies, the payment of certain City facilities capacity charges or fees, appurtenances and incidental work in connection therewith, and are generally described as follows: Brighton Place Area (Tracts Nos. 6111, 6127~ and 6128) CALLOWAY DRIVE (WEST SIDE) IMPROVEMENTS (TRACTS NOS. 6111 AND 6128 FRONTAGES ): Construction on the west side of Calloway Drive along the frontage of Tracts Nos. 6111 and 6127 including irrigation service, street lights and conduits, utility trenching for street lights, and block wall.
