SCHULZ, DIRECTOR • CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: CALIFORNIA AVENUE LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT Dear Property Owner: The City of Bakersfield is proposing to improve the traffic movement and road surface condition along California Avenue between Stockdale Highway and Real Road by reducing the existing landscaped median by 4 feet and overlaying the existing road surface with new asphalt. The project will require the removal of several existing pine trees in order to accommodate. the lengthening of left turn lanes. To offset the loss of landscape trees and reduction in landscaped median width, the City proposes not only to replace the landscaping which is lost, but to upgrade the medians with several new trees, shrubs, a new automatic irrigation system and replace the asphalt within the median with decorative stamped colored concrete. The estimated construction cost for total street improvements, including landscaping is approximately $S 14,000.00 and will be borne by the City. The net effect will be wider travel lanes and the beautification of California Avenue. The typical theme tree is Japanese Pagoda; the- typical theme for shrubs and ground cover are: Oregon Grape, Woods Dwarf, Cape Honey Suckle and Spring Rapture Monrey. As a result of the upgrade and enhancement of the landscape improvements, an increase in the maintenance cost will be incurred and the City of Bakersfield is requesting your support of a Maintenance District for California Avenue.. There are several existing and established Maintenance Districts through-out the City. The formation of a Maintenance District is a standard policy with the City for the purpose of maintaining new landscape improvements and is necessary whenever these type of improvements are added. The total square footage of landscaping for this project is approximately 22,000 square feet. The estimated annual cost to maintain landscaping improvements for this project is $7,b58.00. This. cost will be fairly apportioned to all property owners within the boundaries of the proposed district. It is estimated that the cost to each parcel ~ in the proposed district will be approximately $40.00 with an additional cost for those parcels which front California Avenue. Atypical parcel with one hundred feet of California Avenue frontage would pay an additional $25.00.

January 11,1994 Building Industry Association of Kern County 6901 McDivitt Drive Bakersfield, CA 93313 Attn; Patrick J. Collins Re: California Avenue Maintenance District Dear Mr. Collins: , We have received. and reviewed your letter of December 7, 1993: As you may know, before any new street landscaping is added to the City, a Maintenance District must be formed. In order to improve traffic circulation. along California Avenue, the City .budgeted for construction which would entail the narrowing of the .median islands along California Avenue and pavement resurfacing, This presented an opportunity to enhance, the beautification of California Avenue by adding new landscaping. Because adding new landscaping to California Avenue was. proposed by the City, additional steps to the formation process were implemented. These steps basically included obtaining property owner response to the proposal prior to any formation procedures. A positive response from property owners would result in the City proceeding with the Maintenance District formation. A negative response would have resulted in the termination of District proceedings and the elimination of any new landscaping along California Avenue. In November of 1992 the City sent letters to all of the property owners within the proposed California Avenue Maintenance District, This letter contained information relating to the reasons for the median reconstruction and the City's desire to enhance and beautify California Avenue by the addition of ,new landscaping. This letter also requested property owner input on the formation of a Maintenance District to pay for the maintenance of the proposed enhanced median island landscaping. A strong majority of those who responded were in favor of enhancing California Avenue and indicated support of establishing a district, This district would pay for maintenance of the new landscaping. Maintenance of the existing landscaping is being paid for by the City. The new landscape plan is designed to enhance and beautify the area in compliance with the present adopted standards for median island landscaping. Since the .properties within the proposed district will receive the greatest benefit from the increased landscaping, the owners are being asked to pay for the maintenance of the landscaping, All property owners were duly notified of their proposed assessment and of thetwo hearing dates, one to hear testimony and the other forthe protest hearing which was held on September 8,1993, At the time of the hearing. we received written protests amounting to approximately 17% by area of the proposed district. A 50% protest by area is required for the district to fail.. In addition to the increased landscaping, the median surface will be replaced with "stamped concrete" to give it a cobblestone look. All construction costs for this project will be borne by the City and only the maintenance .cost of the landscaping will be passed on to the property owners. Very truly yours, E. W.

Asa .first phase of this project, the City installed a storm drain along California Avenue to dispose of the nuisance water generated by the irrigation of various adjacent. property owner's landscaping. This nuisance water would enter the street at driveways and cause deterioration of ,the pavement. The cost of this portion of the project was $214,000.00. The construction project which will narrow the medians and resurface California Avenue will be advertised for bids on approximately February 23,1994. This project includes irrigation system installation and hardscaping (See item 3 below -this "ha.rdscaping" is called out as "typical red stamped concrete. pattern"). Construction should start on this project by about April 30,1994 and should take no more than 120 working days. The installation of the landscaping will be done by City forces after the project is complete. The budget for this project is $980,000.00. As per your request, .please find enclosed the following items: 1. The City of Bakersfield .letter dated November 18,1992. sent to all property owners in the district describing the improvements to California Avenue and requesting a response for support or opposition for the proposed district. 2.

SCHULZ, DIRECTOR • CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: CALIFORNIA AVENUE LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT Dear Property Owner: The City of Bakersfield is proposing to improve the traffic movement and road surface condition along California Avenue between Stockdale Highway and Real Road by reducing the existing landscaped median by 4 feet and overlaying the existing road surface with new asphalt. The project will require the removal of several existing pine trees in order to accommodate the lengthening of left turn lanes. To offset the loss of landscape trees and reduction in landscaped median width, the City proposes not only to replace the landscaping which is lost, but to upgrade the medians with several new trees, shrubs, a new automatic irrigation system and replace the asphalt within the median with decorative stamped colored concrete. The estimated construction cost for total street improvements, including landscaping is approximately $S 14,000.00 and will be borne by the City. The net effect will be wider travel lanes and the beautification of California Avenue. The typical theme tree is Japanese Pagoda; the typical theme for shrubs and ground cover are: Oregon Grape, Woods Dwarf, Cape Honey Suckle and Spring Rapture Monrey. As a result of the upgrade and enhancement of the landscape improvements, an increase in the maintenance cost will be incurred and the City of Bakersfield is requesting your support of a Maintenance District for California Avenue. There are several existing and established Maintenance Districts through-out the City. The formation of a Maintenance District is a standard policy with the City for the purpose of maintaining new landscape improvements and is necessary whenever these type of improvements are added. The total square footage of landscaping for this. project is approximately 22,000 square feet. The estimated annual cost to maintain landscaping improvements for this project is $7,658.00. This cost will be fairly apportioned to all property owners within the boundaries of the proposed district. It is estimated that the cost to each parcel in the proposed district will be approximately $40.00 with an additional cost for those parcels which front California Avenue. Atypical parcel with one hundred feet of California Avenue frontage would , pay an additional $25.00. Enclosed are copies of a typical plan of the landscape improvements proposed for enhancement of California Avenue and a map showing the boundaries of the proposed district. Also enclosed is a self addressed post card which you may indicate your support or opposition to the proposed Maintenance District. Please check one of the boxes on the self addressed card and return it to the City by December 4,1992. Once all cards have been received, you will be advised of the next steps regarding this project. Should you have any questions or need additional information on this project, please call Lauren Dimberg or DeWayne Starnes at (805) 326-3724. These improvements will result in an aesthetic enhancement of California Avenue which will be a direct benefit to the properties in the area and add a great improvement to our community. We look forward to ,your support of this project. Very truly yours; E. W chu Pu is Wo Di ector B .~ DeWayne Starn -Civil Engineer III AFFIDAVIT ~F MAILING STATE OF CALIFORNIA) ss .
