The City's costs for maintaining landscaping within District boundaries are reimbursed by the District. DESCRIPTION: As part of the review and approval of the 145-unit single family development (Ridgecreek) and the other, multi-family Villages, certain landscaping maintenance was made a condition of approval. This maintenance assessment district provides funds for this work. The City Council approved formation of the District on November 10, 1986, with the initial assessment in the 1987-88 tax year. The County Assessor collects these monies for the City for the maintenance of landscaping and irrigation systems, right-of-way fencing, walls, and entrance signs and trash removal. The District's boundaries include all of Tract 5511. In 1991-92, the assessment to property owners was reduced from $120.00 to $78.48 per single family lot and from $60.00 to $39.24 per condominium lot by using a portion of the District' substantial reserve. This year's assessment is proposed to be $84.22 per single-family lot and $41.22 per multi-family lot. This is approximately 7.3% higher than last year's assessment. The increase is primarily due to a significant increase in the cost of water. Staff is again proposing to use a portion of the reserve fund to offset the increased costs. On June 8th, the City Council adopted resolutions approving the Preliminary Engineer's Report and setting a public hearing date of July 27, 1992. Notice of the public hearing was published, posted, and mailed to property owners in accordance with Government Code regulations. Staff additionally mailed a newsletter to property owners which described events that took place in the District over the past year. A copy of the newsletter is attached to this agenda statement. An informal meeting was scheduled for Thursday, July 9th in the Regional Meeting Room; however, none of the homeowners attended the meeting. Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, deliberate, and adopt the resolution approving the engineer's report, confirming the diagram and assessment, and ordering levy of assessment for the 1992-93 tax year. a: (ad)\86-1\86-lph ITEM NO.

STREET LANDSCAPES Many of the plant species in this assessment district are California natives or recognized as being drought-tolerant. While the district did not experience any frost damage this past year, some planted areas did incur difficulties nonetheless . :: -+� One plant in particular, Baccharis (also called Coyote 4, 9s Brush or Dwarf Chaparral Broom) is currently not doing well .

Baccharis has enough damage to warrant replanting. As of July 1 , 1992 , the City will no longer be utilizing the County Sheriff ' s Weekend Work Alternative Program. For many reasons, the program has not worked out as intended. Specifically, the Sheriff ' s Department has not been able to provide a sufficient number of people . The City' s existing maintenance contractor has therefore subcontracted weed control to a firm which will have greater responsibility for maintaining weed-free landscape beds through chemical control . This work will include providing a full-time person to spot spray weeds on a weekly basis . Water availability is much better than it was a year ago at this time. However, the cost of water to the City has risen .5.6% since last year. The City' s maintenance department is very appreciative of those residents of the district who called during the past year to notify us of broken sprinklers and other problems both in and outside of the district. Please continue to let us know when you see broken sprinkler, fallen tree, or any other landscape or irrigation problem. PARK IMPROVEMENTS The cost of park improvements and maintenance is paid by the City and not charged to the assessment district. The City' s park masterplans include a number of improvements for the Dougherty Hills Park (the "hill" to the west of the Villages ) . To date, trails have been cut to allow hiking on the hill . Proposed future projects could provide a parking area along Amador Valley Boulevard, day camp and picnic facilities, restrooms, and naturalized landscaping. Due to the City' s present budget constraints , the Five Year Capital Improvement Program currently lists any future plans or improvements for this area as unfunded. PUBLIC HEARING The City is required to hold a public hearing each year in order to offer property owners an opportunity to protest the proposed assessment for the upcoming tax year. The attached notice provides information regarding the date, time, and place that the hearing will be held. The assessment to property owners for the 1990-91 tax year was $120 . 00 for single family lots and $60 . 00 for condominium lots . For the 1991- 92 tax year, the assessment was reduced substantially through use of a portion of the assessment district' s reserve fund. The City is again proposing to use a portion of the assessment district ' s reserve fund in order to reduce the total assessment to property owners . The 1992-93 assessment is proposed to be $84 . 22 per single family lot and $41 . 22 per condominium/apartment lot. This is approximately 8% higher than last year' s assessment . The cost increase is due primarily to the increase in water rates . City Staff 'will be glad to speak with any property owners who have questions regarding the assessment or the maintenance activities in the district.
