Agenda Item Report
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution (1) initiating proceedings for
the levy and collection of annual assessments for the Landscape Maintenance
District Number 1 (LMD #1) and (2) ordering the preparation of the Engineer’s
Report thereon for Fiscal Year 2014/2015.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
LMD#1 consists of landscaping around the perimeter of the Studio Estates
Subdivision located northeast of the intersection of Culver Boulevard and Elenda
Street. LMD#1 was created for the purpose of providing on-going maintenance of
landscaping within the District, which consists of the landscaped border of the
subdivision on Culver Boulevard and Elenda Street. The assessment includes the
costs of providing maintenance and administration of the District as well as
preparation of the Engineer’s Report.
Pursuant to Section 15.01.070.C of the Culver City Municipal Code (CCMC), the
proposed resolution presented to the City Council describes any proposed new, or
changes in existing, improvements or services, or both and orders the Public Works
Director/City Engineer to prepare and file the Engineer’s Report. It is expected the
Engineer’s Report shall propose the assessments not be increased as the reserve
balance is expected to be sufficient to fund Fiscal Year 2014/2015 expenses.
Pursuant to Sections 15.01.070.D and 15.01.070.E of the CCMC, should the City
Council adopt the proposed resolution, the Public Works Director/City Engineer
shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) the Engineer’s Report. Upon its
