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 public street medians and other public street landscaping improvements. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to, plant forms, drainage facilities, irrigation system pipes, conduits, water mains and/or sprinkler systems therefore, sidewalks, walkways, and ornamental planting, including shrubs, ground covers and trees 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. EXHIBIT "1" 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 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 1-16, Palm, Spanke) is being added to the Consolidated Maintenance District for the maintenance of public street median and other street landscaping. The area will be assigned an appropriate tier 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 will have an assessment of $22.94 per equivalent dwelling unit for fiscal year 1998-99, but will not be charged, for the 1998-99 fiscal year as shown in Exhibit "E" because landscape improvements have not yet been installed. When landscape improvements have been completed, street tier 1 assessments will apply. 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. 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 1998-99 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 area (Area 1-16, Palm, Spanke) subject to be assessed to pay the cost of maintenance and operation in said area.
