SECTION 2. General Description The City Council has elected to annex the permanent landscaped areas along the San Bernardino Avenue frontage of Tracts 13745 and 13765 into Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 . The City Council has determined that the areas to be landscaped will have an effect upon all lots within Tracts 13745 and 13765 , as well as on the lots directly abutting the landscaped areas. All landscaped areas to be maintained by the district are within roadway right of way or ease- ments shown on the Tract Map to be granted to the City of Redlands. SECTION 3.

Reference is hereby made to the subject tract maps and assessment diagrams for the exact location of the landscape areas.

Assessment Diagram A reduced copy of the proposed assessment diagram is attached to this report and labeled "Exhibit A" ; by this reference the diagram is hereby incorporated within the text of this report. SECTION 6. Assessment Zones The determination of benefit takes into consideration the following facts: 1. The purpose of landscaping is to prcviue an aesthetic impression on the area. 2. The maintained landscaping benefits all properties in the development. 3 . The benefit to the lots not adjacent to the landscaped areas benefit by the uniform maintenance and appearance. All lots not abutting the landscaped areas benefit equally. 10 4 . The landscaping on San Bernardino Avenue is oriented away from the lots adjacent to the landscaped areas, however these properties were given a 10 percent surcharge to recognize proximity and support benefit. These lots are within Assessment Zone "A" as shown on the Assessment Diagram. SECTION 7. Assessment The cost of planting and installing improvements is to be paid by the developer. The assessment for 1987-88 will therefore be zero. The following information regarding assessments to individual lots will be utilized for the 1988-89 assessment proposed to be made in June, 2988 . The landscaping area along the San Bernardino Avenue boundary is being developed for the benefit and enjoyment of all the properties incorporated within the area to be annexed. The landscaped area along the San Bernardino Avenue boundary will enhance all the property within the district and will establish the appearance standard for future development along San Bernardino Avenue. These landscaped areas are to be dedicated to the City as landscape easement and San Bernardino Avenue right of way and will benefit all the properties within the area to be assessed. Annexation No. i to Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 consists of two tracts containing 63 lots for residential development having frontage along San Bernardino Avenue. The maintenance of the landscaping along San Bernardino Avenue is a vital part of the development for protection of both economic and humanistic values. The City Council upon the recommendation of the Planning Commission has determined that for the preservation of the values incorporated within this development, certain landscaped areas along San Bernardino Avenue are to be included in maintenance districts to insure satisfactory levels of maintenance. It is proposed that future developments along San Bernardino Avenue also be annexed to the City of Redlands Landscape Maintenance District No. 1. The development of the assessment for each unit must be on a unit by unit basis which will preserve the integrity of the unit. There should be a review of each annexation to determine the effect upon the other units that have been developed and the effect should be considered when determining the assessments. There may be a necessity to adjust or combine individual annexations and, upon the completion of development along San Bernardino Avenue all the assessments should be reviewed and adjusted if necessary. 11 Formula for Assessment A = Assessment per interior lot L = Number of lots not adjacent to landscaping areas on San Bernardino Avenue P = Number of lots with 10 percent surcharge within Assessment Zone "A'• LA + P ( 1 . 10 ) A = Amount to be assessed The cost of planting and installing improvements is to be paid by the developer. For the benefit of the future owners the estimated 1988-89 assessment will be spread based upon the preceding formula . Total lot count in the district is 63 lots, with 11 of these lots being adjacent to San Bernardino Avenue. Estimated 1988-89 Assessment ( Six Months) ( 52 A) f 11 ( 1. 10A) = $3 , 580 A = $55 .85 Amount of assessment for lots not adjacent to the landscaping areas on San Bernardino Avenue = $55 . 85. Amount of assessments for lots within Assessment Zone "A" adjacent to the San Bernardino Avenue landscaping areas with 10 percent surcharge $61 . 44 . Estimated 1988-89 Assessments Tract Numbers 13745 Lots 16 through 24 = $61 . 44 each All remaining lots = $55 . 85 each Tract Numbers 13765 Lots 1 and 25 = $61 . 44 each All remaining lots = $55 . 85 each 12 t gf g4 f SECTION 7.
