swings and suggested that eliminating the increased number of benches may provide

Motion carried
PUBLIC HEARING
I. Street Lighting District No. 1 - Adopt Resolution No. 6647 confirming the diagram
and assessment, either as originally proposed or as revised. Adoption of the resolution
shall constitute the levy of the assessment for Fiscal Year 2016-2017.
Director of Finance/City Treasurer Victoria L. Beatley presented the item summarizing
information provided in the agenda staff report. She stated that at the April 25, 2016 City
Council meeting, the Council adopted a resolution initiating the annual levy of
assessments, a resolution approving the Engineer's Report and a resolution of intention
setting the date for this public hearing. She then stated the purpose of this assessment
is for the maintenance and servicing of arterial street lights which provide an area wide
special benefit to all assessable parcels within the district whether or not such parcels
are in close proximity to such lights and the maintenance and servicing of streetlights in
close proximity to certain lots and parcels that provides a local special benefit to such
lots or parcels. She then spoke regarding the cost of maintenance being greater than
the levied assessments requiring $43,000 of General Funds.
At the inquiry of Council Member Deaton, Director Beatley informed the City Council
that the City would need to follow Proposition 218 requirements to increase the
assessments so that General Funds are not required.
