Fiscal Year 1983 - ].984
CITY OLF_R~
WHEREAS, on the 19th day of January, 1983, the Council of the City of
Bakersfield adopted its Resolution of Intention No. 965 to order the estab-
lishment of a maintenance district pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04
of Title 13 of the Municipal Code of the City of Bakersfield, and referred
said proposal to the Public Works Director, directing him to make and file a
Report; and
WHEREAS, the Director of Public Works filed with the Clerk of the
Council his Report in writing, which Report is as follows:
PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT
City of Bakersfield, Maintenance District No. 3 is generally described
as a district within the City of Bakersfield, extending west from the east
curb line of the median strip of Gosford Road to the west curb line of the
median strip of Old River Road and the area extending north from the Southern
Pacific Railroad right of way north to the centerline of White Lane.
Pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 13.04 of Title 13 of the Munici-
pal Code of the City of Bakersfield, referred to as the Bakersfield Main-
tenance District Procedure, the Director of Public Works makes and files this
Report and proposed assessment of and upon all parcels of property within the
district to be assessed for the cost of maintaining and operating local public
improvements, which are now contemplated or are in various planning stages
and some of which may be constructed or installed within, and would then be
maintained and operated by, the district. The improvements to be maintained
by this district specifically are all the items included in the Landscape
Plans For White Lane From Gosford Road to Old River Road, Landscape Plans For
Campus Park North and Landscape Plans For Campus Park South which have been
submitted to the Office of the City Engineer. The improvements generally
include parks, street and parkway landscaping, signs and sign posts, walls and
fences which include, but are not limited to, plant forms, drainage facili-
ties, irrigation systems and equipment, restrooms, drinking fountains,
barbecues and storage buildings, and plumbing and fixtures therefor, recrea-
tion equipment, including swings, slides, play structures, etc., and picnic
facilities, including tables, barbecues, trash cans, fountains, benches and
tennis courts with coin operated lights, sidewalks, walkways, parking areas,
poles, posts, wires, pipes, conduits, water mains and/or sprinkler systems and
ornamental planting, including turf, lawns, shrubs, hedges, ground cover, and
trees now existing or hereafter to be constructed, laid or planted in and for
said maintenance district and of special benefit to the territory within the
district and of a public nature, including the cost of necessary repairs,
replacements, water, fuel, power, gas, electric current, care, supervision and
any and all other items necessary for the proper maintenance and operation
thereof, and all additions,
hereafter be made.
In most of the City,
through this Department~s budget

improvements and enlargements thereto which may

Department's budget will not accommodate
maintenance of new improvements of the type described above and proposed for
newly development areas within the City. Thus, absent funds for maintenance
costs from a source other than general tax revenues, the City will not accept
or permit parks or median strip or other landscaping or signs or walls to be
placed in the City-owned lands in the area included within this proposed
Maintenance District. The funds generated as the result of the establishment
of the proposed district will be utilized strictly for the purposes of and
applied to the maintenance and upkeep of improvements within the district.
Such funds will not supplant any City general fund expenditure, either present
or future.
The establishment of the proposed district has been specifically
requested by the present owner and developer of all property located within
the district, in order that funding for the maintenance and upkeep of ameni-
ties specially designed to enhance the living environment of future residents
therein be established as an integral part of the development process.
The proposed district is designated for low/medium/high density residential
development, and for commercial development. Because of the natural bounda-
ries of the area occasioned in part by the character and timing of surrounding
development, the area within the proposed district will receive the greatest
benefit from the contemplated improvements and maintenance thereof. Sensory
benefits from installing street landscaping, signs, walls, fences, and parks,
including heat regulation, some noise attenuation and/or esthetic enhancement
will accrue to the commercial owners and/or users and residents within
proposed Maintenance District No. 3.. In addition, the parcel owners will
directly receive the benefit of increases in the market value of their lots or
parcels. Open space and recreation use and enjoyments will be of benefit
primarily to the residents of the district.
The benefit of increased market value, particularly from walls
and street landscaping, will inure to the lots or parcels uniformly, and will
be assessed at a uniform acreage rate. The sensory benefits from walls and
street landscaping will similarly benefit all of the district, and will also
be assessed at a uniform acreage rate.
Park use and enjoyment is likely to be most directly susceptible of
enjoyment by each resident. These benefits are, therefore, to be assessed on
the basis of numbers of residents per lot or parcel. No assessment for these
benefits will be made on the commercial lots and/or parcels in the district.
It would be impracticable to base the assessment on the actual number of
residents in the district in any fiscal year. Instead, the 1980 census
figures for detached and attached dwellings, taken from the census tract in
-3-
in the southwest portion of Bakersfield, tract 18, 28.01, 28.02, 28.03, and
28.04, have been used to determine the average number of residents in detached
and attached dwelling units. From those averages, the number of residents
presumed for each detached dwelling is 3.24; the number of residents presumed
for each attached dwelling is 2. There are no residential units in existence
in the proposed district at present. Until such time as residential units
are built or permitted, benefits will be assessed on the varieties and numbers
of units that are permissable, pursuant to the current zoning and general
plan designations.
The commercial properties will also benefit from some of the improve-
ments most measurably through increased patronage, thus increased market
value. The degree of benefit is likely to be uniform throughout the com-
mercial areas. Thus the commercial lots and parcels will be on an acreage
basis at a uniform rate throughout the District.
The benefit formula is set forth in the attachment hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Dale Hawley, 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 following budget and assessment upon
all parcels of property within Maintenance District No. 3, subject to be
assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said District for the
fiscal year 1983 -1984.

Said assessment is made in accordance with the benefit formula attached
