PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT FOR
TRAFFIC SIGNAL MAINTENANCE DISTRICTS
City of Bakersfield
Fiscal Year 2011-2012
The City of Bakersfield Traffic Signal Maintenance Districts are specifically
described in each of the resolutions establishing the districts and approved by the city
council and all are on file in the office of the City Clerk 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 districts for the cost
of maintaining and operating traffic signals that benefit the various districts. The
assessment includes the cost to operate, maintain, repair and replace signal poles,
mast arms, signal heads, controller, cabinet, machine vision detection system, street
light luminaries, conduits, wires and pull boxes, cost of energy, supervision and any and
all other items necessary for the proper maintenance and operation thereof.
Developers often request permission to install traffic signals on major streets to
enhance access to their development. These "convenience" traffic signals are not
required by the Traffic Authority to regulate traffic flow, but are installed solely at the
discretion of the developer of a commercial site. Such signals do not provide a general
public traffic benefit.
Under the "user pay" concept, the private property deriving benefits should bear
the costs of maintenance and operation of convenience traffic signals. On September
28, 1994 the City Council approved Resolution 161-94 instituting the collection of
maintenance and operating costs of future convenience traffic signals through
maintenance districts.
The traffic signals that are operated and maintained under these maintenance
districts benefit the parcels within the various districts. Each parcel is assessed an
amount based on formulas set forth in each of the district's Exhibit "C

Rate:
The rate shall equal the dollar amount shown on the proposition 218 ballot used in the
formation of the Traffic Signal District and approved by City Council at the time of the formation and is
included as if incorporated herein.
FORMULA
TOTAL ASSESSMENT AMOUNT = ((ANNUAL COST OF AN AVERAGE COST OF A TRAFFIC SIGNAL
X No of Signals) / % of acreage of parcel in the district) + ANY COUNTY FEES)**
Fee will never be greater than allowed per the prop. 218 ballot(s). If the district formed
before prop 218, than the fee charged at the time prop. 218 passed will be carried over as

AVERAGE TRAFFIC SIGNAL COST: The public works department will calculate the
amount of electricity, maintenance & operation costs
are involved with the average traffic signal in the City
of Bakersfield. That amount will be used for this Value.
% OF ACREAGE Each parcel within a specific district will be assessed
based upon their acreage within their district. E.g. If
an owner owns 50% of the acreage in a district, then
they will pay 50% of the cost of any signals included
with the district..

these assessments on the regular property tax bill. For
the FY 2011-2012 this fee is $0.20 per parcel billed.
