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 street 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, Area 3-20 (Buena Vista, Panama NE) is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance District for the maintenance of a park and public street EXHIBIT "1" 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 $125.00 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit "C") per parcel. 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 $125 per equivalent dwelling unit. The area will consist of residential use, thus all parcels within the area will be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement and open space enjoyment. A public park 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, RAUL M. ROJAS, 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 2002-2003 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, Area 3-20 (Buena Vista, Panama NE), subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said area.
