16 <br /> Improvements, in addition to the City non-monetary contributions described <br /> above. <br /> Source of Contributions from Other Funds to Satisfy 11.9% Requirement <br /> City non-monetary contributions: <br /> 10.0% (Curb and gutter) <br /> + 10.0% (Storm drainage system) <br /> + 10.0% (Public roads) <br /> + 20.0% (Amoritized value of initial construction) <br /> = 50.0% (Total General Benefit paid from Other Funds) <br /> City Monetary Contributions <br /> + $9,703 General Fund contribution for maintenance of area along Arroyo <br /> + $1,200 General Fund contribution for City staff assessment administration <br /> = $10,903 City of Pleasanton General Fund contribution <br /> Zones of Benefit <br /> The boundaries of the Assessment Area are carefully drawn to only include the <br /> properties that are proximate to the Improvements and that would materially benefit <br /> from the Improvements. <br /> In SVTA, the court noted that even a local agency-wide assessment district is <br /> appropriate under the right conditions: <br /> "Thus, if an assessment district is narrowly drawn, the fact that a benefit is <br /> conferred throughout the district does not make it general rather than special. In <br /> that circumstance, the characterization of a benefit may depend on whether the <br /> parcel receives a direct advantage from the improvement (e.g., proximity to a <br /> park) or receives an indirect, derivative advantage resulting from the overall <br /> public benefits of the improvement (e.g., general enhancement of the district's <br /> property values)." <br /> The court therefore acknowledged the appropriateness of a District-wide assessment so <br /> long as each parcel receives a direct advantage from the assessment-funded <br /> improvement or service. As demonstrated in this Report, each parcel in the <br /> Maintenance District receives a direct advantage and special benefit from the <br /> Improvements. <br /> In the Maintenance District, the advantage that each parcel receives from the <br /> Improvements is direct, and the boundaries are narrowly drawn to include only parcels <br /> City of Pleasanton <br /> Landscape Maintenance District No. 1984-1, Ponderosa Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2021-22 <br />
