Assessment General The cost of planting and installing improvements is to be paid by the developers of the individual projects. The following information regarding assessments to individual lots will be utilized for the assessment which may be levied in the future. - 10 - The landscaping areas along the frontages of the projects are being developed for the benefit and enjoyment of the areas proposed to be annexed. The landscaped areas will enhance the property within this annexation to the district and will continue to establish the appearance standard for development along the various streets. These landscaped areas are to be dedicated to the City as landscape easement and right-of--way and will benefit the property within the area to be assessed. Annexation No. 3 to Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 consists of various types of development. The maintenance of the land- scaping along their perimeter streets is a vital part of the development for protection of both economic and humanistic values. The City Council has determined that for the preservation of the values incorporated within this development, certain landscaped areas are to be included in maintenance district to insure satis- factory levels of maintenance. It is proposed that future developments also be annexed to the City of Redlands Landscape Maintenance District No. 1. The assessment for each development 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 its 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 all the assessments should be reviewed and adjusted if necessary. Annexation 9-A I.CRA-648) Annexation 9-A consists of an addition to the K--Mart site. It has frontage on both Redlands Boulevard and Alabama Avenue.
