Holt, Director <br />Chuck Huffer, Director <br />GENERAL MANAGER EMERITUS <br />Tex Ward <br />DATE: April 17, 2014 <br />TO: Board of Directors <br />FROM: Jim Friedl, General Mana <br />SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolutibrt o. 041714-A Directing Preparation of the <br />Engineer's Report, Declaring Intention to Levy Assessments for 2014-15, <br />Preliminarily Approving Engineer's Report for Districtwide Park <br />Maintenance and Recreation Improvement District (62-1) and Providing for <br />a Notice of Public Hearing <br />DISCUSSION <br />Adopt Resolution No. 041714-A directing preparation of the Engineer's Report, declaring the <br />District's intention to levy assessments for 2014-15, preliminarily approving the Engineer's <br />Report for Districtwide Park Maintenance and Recreation Improvement District (62-1) and <br />providing for a notice of public hearing. <br />BACKGROUND <br />The Districtwide Park Maintenance and Recreation and Improvement District (62-1) was <br />initially approved in 2001. Every year thereafter, the Board is asked to consider and <br />preliminarily approve the Engineer's Report and declare the District's intention to levy the <br />annual assessments, setting the date, time and place for the required public hearing. The <br />proposed assessment for Assessment District 62-1 (Districtwide) is changing from $34.03 per <br />benefit unit to $34.42 per benefit unit for FY 2014-15. Attached is a historical annual <br />assessment revenue summary. <br />The proposed assessment district budget and Estimate of Cost for fiscal year 2014-15 is on <br />page 11 of the Engineer's Report. This section highlights the maintenance costs and capital <br />projects supported by the assessment district. With water costs rapidly escalating and large <br />scale development projects and other revenue sources for capital projects dwindling (such as <br />statewide park bond funds and grants), the assessment district is proving essential to the Park <br />District's ability to provide quality maintenance and to undertake some capital improvements to <br />the park and open space system. <br />403 West Hillcrest Drive I Thousand Oaks, CA 91360-4223 <br />(805) 495-6471 FAX: (805) 497-3199 Email: parks@crpd.org <br />
