2015/2016 Citywide Maintenance Districts
On June 3, 2015, the City Council adopted Resolutions ordering the preparation of and
giving preliminary approval of the Engineer's Reports for the Districts, and declaring its
intention to conduct a public hearing on July 1, 2015, regarding the Districts and the
levy and collection of special assessments related thereto. The Engineer's Reports
have been filed with the City Clerk and are available for public review. In accordance
with the Streets and Highways Code of the state of California, it is necessary for the City
Council to conduct a Public Hearing, take public testimony, and in the absence of a
majority protest to the special assessments, the City Council can approved the levy and
collection of special assessments for the various Special Districts for the 2015/2016
fiscal year.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Section 15061 (b)(3) of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines
exempts activities that are covered under the general rule that CEQA applies only to
projects that have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment. Where it
can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the activity in question may have a
significant effect upon the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The
requested action requests the City Council to consider ordering the levy and collection of
assessments associated with various Special Districts, which itself will not result in any
new direct physical impacts to the environment. Therefore, the requested action is
considered exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this action is the final annual step to continue levying special assessments
in the City's Street Lighting and Parkway Maintenance Districts. In accordance with the
Engineer's Reports prepared for each Maintenance District, on the basis that a majority
protest is not presented at the public hearing the City Council can order the levying of
special assessments to collect revenue to pay for expenditures incurred within each
District, as identified in the following Table:
Special District FY 15/16 Levy Amount #of Parcels
#3 (Crossley Tract) $ 4,283.00 75
#6A(Fairport Development) $ 5,154.00 31
#6C (Park Sonora Tract) $ 12,368.00 30
#7 (Sunrise Norte) $ 23,747.00 53
#8 (Vintage Palms) $ 19,220.00 62
#9 (Flora Vista) $ 17,409.00 77
#10 (Mountain Gate Zone 1) $ 114,615.00 308
#10 (Mountain Gate Zone 2) $ 72,000.00 196
