approximately 93% in order to keep pace with the cost of maintenance. The recommended
2003-2004 assessment is $541.66 per acre, which is approximately 93% higher than the
2002-2003 assessment, but still below the maximum assessment allowed under the terms
of the Engineer's Report. Proposed single-family or multi-family lot assessments by

DESCRIPTION: This assessment district, which was formed in the fall of 1996, funds
street landscape maintenance and utility costs for the Santa Rita development area, also kno~vn as-Emerald
Park. This area is bounded by Arnold Road on the west, Gleason Drive on the north, Tassajara Road on
the east, and Interstate 580 on the south. The District was formed at the request of the property owner to
assure that all of the landscaping in Emerald Park was maintained at a consistently high level as it was not
believed that maintenance by homeowners' associations would accomplish the same desirable end result.
The scope of work includes maintenance of roadside landscaping for Dublin Boulevard, Hacienda Drive,
Central Parkway, a portion of Arnold Road, Tassajara Road (westerly portion), and a portion of Gleason
Drive, plus the maintenance of the trail and landscaping along the Tassajara Creek channel, as delineated
on Page 2 of the Engineer's Report.
The total maintenance and administration cost for this District for Fiscal Year 2003-2004 is expected to
be $235,018. It is proposed to use a minor amount of the existing surplus to offset part of this cost; the
proposed total assessment for Fiscal Year 2003-2004 is $231,966. The total developed acreage in this
District is now 428.26 acres, which breaks down to a per-acre assessment of $541.66, as compared to the
Fiscal Year 2002-2003 assessment of $280.32 per acre. As provided in the Engineer's Report, individual
lots in residential subdivisions are assessed based on density: the number of acres in the subdivision is
divided by the number of lots, and the resulting quotient is the assessment per lot. For Fiscal Year
2003-2004, the following assessments resulted from this calculation:
California Creekside single-family lots: $77.02 per lot
California Brookside multi-family units: $33.90 per unit
SummerGlen -Richmond American (north) lots: $63.84 per lot
SummerGlen - Richmond American (south) lots: $74.26 per lot
SummerGlen - Kaufman & Broad and Pulte lots: $115.60 per lot
Dublin Greene Tract 7084 single-family lots: $81.62 per lot
Dublin Greene Tract 7149 multi-family units $61.48 per unit
Dublin Greene Tract 7149 condominium/apartment units $33.34 per unit
Commercial (including retail, office, and industrial uses, as well as apartment properties) are assessed
based on the per-acre figure multiplied by the number of acres per individual lot.
A substantial amount of the assessment district landscaping was accepted during Fiscal Year 2002-03 or is
proposed to be accepted very early in 2003-04, and the budget for maintenance has been increased
accordingly. Improvement items included in the budget for this District are additional trash cans for the
Tassajara Creek Trail area and installation of drainage in turf areas along the trail. In addition, the reserve
in this District is now projected to be within the amount allowed by State Law, which is 50% of the
budgeted maintenance cost.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, deliberate, and adopt the resolution
approving engineer's report, confirming diagram and assessment, and ordering levy of assessment.
