AGENDA STATEMENT
City Council Meeting Date: March 13, 1995
SUBJECT: Authorization to Prepare Engineer's Report for Street.Lighting
Maintenance Assessment District 83-1
Report by: Public Works Director Lee Thompson
EXHIBITS ATTACHED: Resolution directing Staff to prepare the Engineer's Annual Report
. the Street Lighting Maintenance Assessment District
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The cost to prepare the Engineer's Report is estimated at $2,600.
This amount is budgeted in the Engineering Operating Budget 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 1995-96. ,
The City incurred new, more stringent noticing requirements beginning in Fiscal Year 1993-94, which
mandate that local jurisdictions provide 45 days' notice and two public hearings prior to enacting any new
or increased tax assessments. The requirement for making a general mailing to all property owners has,
however, been changed to a requirement for publication of 1/8 page newspaper ads at least 45 days prior
to the public hearing.
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, public hearings will be scheduled as required.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution.
