SUBMITTED BY: Director of Public Works/City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: City Manager (4/5ths Vote: Yes No X )
On September 16, 1986, the City Council by Resolution No. 12715 ordered a
public hearing to be held October 7, 1986, on the formation of a reimbursement
district at the southwest corner of Bonita Road/"E" Street intersection. The
reimbursement district is required to assure that the City will be reimbursed
$17,970.06 which the City advanced to install street improvements adjacent to
a parcel which is owned by Will and Karen Gardner and John Gardner.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
a. Hold the public hearing and
b. Adopt the resolution establishing the reimbursement district and approving
the reimbursement agreement with the owners of the benefited parcel.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
On February 4, 1986, Council, by Resolution No. 12355, awarded a contract to
Select Electric, Inc. for the construction of street improvements on Bonita
Road and "E" Street. Because of Safety and Engineering requirements, the
project improved the frontage along a vacant parcel of land west of Bonita
Road and south of "E" Street. Funds for this project were approved in the
FY 1984-85 Capital Improvement Program budget with the condition that the cost
for the vacant land improvements be recovered by the City through a
reimbursement district when the land is subdivided and/or developed.
The street improvements built adjacent to the vacant parcel (Assessor's Parcel
No. 57U-1320-L4) are as follows:

Chapter 15.50 of the City Code contains a procedure for the establishment of
reimbursement districts which assures that a benefited property owner
reimburses another party for the excess costs it incurs when providing public
improvements benefiting property other than its own or in excess of its
obligation. In accordance with the Code, the City Council is required to hold
a public hearing on the formation of the reimbursement district where "all
persons desiring to testify with respect to: tree necessity of said public
improvements, the cost of said public improvements, the benefited area or, the
amount of the excess costs, may appear and be heard."
The City Clerk has duly notified the property owners and published the
required notices for this public hearing. We, therefore, recommend that
Council hold the public hearing and establish the reimbursement district which
consists of one benefited parcel (see attached plat).
We further recommend that Council approve a reimbursement agreement between
the City and Will and Karen Gardner and John Gardner, owners of the benefited
parcel through which they agree to reimburse the City the cost of the
improvements ($17,970.00) plus seven percent (7%) simple interest per annum
from July 8, 1986 (when the improvements were accepted by the City Council).
The owners also agree to reimburse the City upon the development of their
property, pursuant to a request for a building permit or an application for
subdivision of land.
Subsequent to Council's establishment of the reimbursement district and
approval of the reimbursement agreement, the City Clerk will record a copy of
the Council's resolution with the County Recorder.
It should be noted that the $17,970.06 does not include the cost for
Engineering or administrative expenses associated with the construction of the
project or the cost of the reimbursement district formation proceedings. The
reasons for not charging the property owner engineering and administrative
costs are:
Page 3, Item 24
Meeting Date 1 6
1. The realignment of Bonita Road at the intersection was a general benefit
to the public and a City-initiated project.
2. The property owner dedicated voluntarily the additional right-of-way
that was needed.
3. City Council Policy 505-01 with respect to the 1911 Block Act Program
states that the City, at no cost to the property owner shall provide all
engineering, inspection and administrative services.
Also, not included is the cost of the traffic signal because the developers
will be subject to the City's Traffic Signal Fee when and if they develop
their property.
FISCAL IMPACT: City will recover $17,970.06 advanced to install
improvements at the southwest corner of the Bonita Road/"E" Street
intersection. The City will bear the cost for Engineering and administrative
expense for the formation of the district which is estimated to be about
$1,000.
