AGENDA STATEMENT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: March 4, 1997
SUBJECT: Authorization to Prepare Engineer's Report for Street Lighting
Maintenance Assessment District 83-1
Report Prepared by: Lee S. Thompson,Public Works Director
EXHIBITS ATTACHED: Resolution directing Staff to prepare the Engineer's Annual Report
the Street Lighting Maintenance Assessment District
RECOMMENDATION: •' .Q'Y Adopt resolution
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The cost to prepare the Engineer's Report is estimated at $2,600.
This amount is budgeted in the Engineering and Public Works
Operating Budgets and is paid by the Assessment District.
DESCRIPTION: This assessment district was established in 1983 to replace the
County Service Area which had paid maintenance and energy costs for public street lights within the City
of Dublin.
This resolution authorizes the City Engineer to begin preparation of the required Engineer's Report for the
Street Lighting Maintenance Assessment District for FY 1997-98.
The procedure for establishing annual maintenance assessments requires that the City Council first
authorize preparation of the report. A preliminary report is then brought back to the City Council for
approval later in the year, once the District budget has been formulated. Following the City Council's
approval of the preliminary report, a public hearing will be scheduled as required.
The street lighting assessment was reduced in 1996-97, as the energy and maintenance costs have been
reduced by the City's acquisition of the street lighting system from PG&E. At the February 4th meeting,
the City Council received a report regarding the requirements of Proposition 218, and it was determined
that the street lighting assessment would be frozen for the 1997-98 fiscal year.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution.
