PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR'S REPORT
ADDITION OF TERRITORY, AREA 2-49
Fiscal Year 2011-2012
Addition of territory to the Consolidated Maintenance District, as shown in Exhibit "A" is
generally described as the southeast corner of Stockdale Highway and Nord Road and as
specifically shown on Map and Assessment Diagram marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth, as an area within the City of
Bakersfield.
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 a public park and public street medians and other
public street landscaping. The improvements generally include, but are not limited to,
recreation and sports equipment including swings, slides, play structures and storage
buildings; picnic facilities including tables, benches, barbecues, trash cans, drinking fountains
and restrooms; irrigation system including water mains, sprinklers, fountains, and electrical
wires, conduits and timers; plant forms including trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf, and
sidewalks and walkways 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.
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 Consolidated Maintenance
District for the maintenance of a park and public street median and other street
landscaping. The area will be assigned appropriate park and street tiers 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 shall be assessed an amount not to exceed that established in
Resolution No. 019-05 per equivalent dwelling unit (as that term is defined in Exhibit "C") per
parcel. 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.
All parcels as described in the Benefit Formula on file with the City Clerk within the area will
be affected. Sensory benefits from installing street landscaping are aesthetic enhancement
and open space enjoyment,
A public park will benefit all the residential lots and 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 2011-2012 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 territory subject to be assessed to pay the
cost of maintenance and operation in said area.
