(Exhibits "A" and "E are on file in the office of the City Clerk and Exhibits "B", "C" and "D" are attached hereto and incorporated by reference as though fully :set forth herein. 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: turf, 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 generaily include, but are not limited to: turf, 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 19'78, funds available for maintenance and operation of local public improvements were substantially reduced. At present the City's budget does not allow for the cost of all maintenance and operation of local public improvements of the types described above. Thus, without 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 withiin 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 parceIs uniformly, and are based on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis, in accordance with Exhibit "C" hereof. Park use is a benefit most Iikely to be enjoyed by each resident in the Park Zone of Benefit. These benefits are, therefor, uniformly assessed on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit basis. No assessment for park benefits is made on non-residential lots. The benefit formula for the Consolidated Maintenance District is set forth in EExlhilbit "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 has provided a credit up to that same level to those with in the, Consolidated Maintenance District. The assessments contained within this report for the Consolidated Maintenance District have been amended to reflect a 86% 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 rate.,; and methodology will not change and therefore the rates for 2000-2001 will remain at the 1999-2000 Ilevel. NOW, THEREFORE, I, RAUL M. ROJAS, Public Works Director of the City of Bakersfield, by virtue of the power vested in me and per direction of the Council of said City, hereby submit the Fiscal Year 2000-2001 Budget attached hereto as Exhibit "D" and Assessment Roll as set forth in Exhibit "E" for all parcels of property within the various areas of benefit of the Consolidated IMaintenance District, subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation of the above described public improvements in said district.
