| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
In 2015, after gaining property owner ballot support, the benefit assessments were first established to provide funding for the maintenance and operations of a community park and aquatic center in Esparto, CA.
- Balloting Conducted: April to May, 2015
- Ballot Results: 61.08 % of the weighted returned ballots were in support of the proposed assessment
- Board Approval of 1st Year Assessment Levies: May 19, 2015
- Fiscal Year 2016-17 Approved Rates: $92.00 for Zone A, $73.60 for Zone B, and $92.00 for Zone C, per single family equivalent benefit unit (SFE)
- Annual CPI: In each subsequent year, the maximum assessment rate increases by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-W and CPI-U) for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, CA area for the most recent February to February as compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The original Engineer’s Report prepared for the Assessment District was based upon the originally planned location of the community park and aquatic center, identified as Assessor’s Parcel Number 049-150-007. Subsequent to that time, the parcel became unavailable. Yolo County obtained another location for the community park and aquatic center, identified as Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 049-160-017 and 049-160-020. This location change necessitated revisions to the original assessment engineering pertaining to the assigned Zones of Benefit.
These updates resulted in setting the Maximum Authorized Rates which was lower than the highest original rates plus the Consumer Price Index increase. The revised Approved Rates for 2017-18 were set at: $76.10 for Zone A, $60.88 for Zone B, and $76.10 for Zone C, per single family equivalent benefit unit (SFE).
The engineer’s report has been prepared by SCI Consulting Group, registered, professional engineers and submitted to the Board, in which an assessment is proposed to fund the cost of the maintenance and operations of the Esparto Community Park and Aquatics Center (Tuli Mem) which is within the Assessment District boundaries.
The Report is available for review at the Clerk of the Board office located at 625 Court Street, Room 204, Woodland, CA.
This Resolution would preliminarily approve the engineer’s report, provide intention to continue Assessments and provide for notice for Public Hearing date on August 4, 2020. |
