For many years, public parks, public streets 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, as shown in Exhibit "E" is being added to the Traffic Signal Maintenance District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street landscaping.

In each subsequent year, annual assessments may increase by the cost of living reflected in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County/All Urban Consumers Consumer Price Index. 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 the amount established in Resolution No. 019-05 as escalated per the above described Consumer Price Index. The area will consist of residential and non-residential use, thus all parcels within the area will be affected.
