For each assessment district, <br /> annual assessments will remain the same as last year. <br /> These Districts will comply with all the water use restrictions associated with the drought. <br /> The current Stage 3 requirement is a mandatory 25% reduction in water use. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> 1. Open and hold a Public Hearing to receive comments regarding the levy of annual <br /> assessments for each of the Lighting and Landscape Districts. <br /> 2. Adopt a resolution confirming the Engineer's Report, and levying assessments for <br /> each of the Lighting and Landscape Districts. <br /> 3. Appropriate $11,560 from the applicable City Funds (General Fund, Water Fund and <br /> Sewer Fund) to the respective Lighting and Landscape Districts. <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> There will be a small fiscal impact to the City as a result of Proposition 218. As the City <br /> determined that the nearly mile-long landscape strip that is located along the eastern <br /> bank of the Arroyo de la Laguna in the Ponderosa Homes Del Prado subdivision is of <br /> "general benefit", the City will pay approximately $9,703 for its maintenance including <br /> water, electrical, and a reserve for emergency repairs. In addition, the City owns one or <br /> more parcels of land in four of the five Lighting and Landscape Districts (L & L Districts). <br /> These parcels contain various City utilities, such as water tanks, sewer lift stations, and <br /> water pump stations. The City will pay approximately $17 for the parcel in L & L District <br /> 1984-1, $253 for the parcel in L & L District 1993-2, $466 for the parcel in L & L District <br /> 1994-1, and $1,121 for the two parcels in L & L District 1995-1. Staff recommends <br /> appropriating $10,746 from the General Fund for the parcels including the Arroyo de la <br /> Laguna, the park parcel in L & L District 1984-1, the sewer lift station parcel in L & L <br />
