RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution initiating proceedings for the

Assessment District Number Two and ordering the preparation of the Engineer’s
Report thereon for Fiscal Year 2014/2015.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The City has assisted in the formation of Benefit Assessment Districts by agreeing to
construct landscaped medians along West Washington Boulevard if on-going
maintenance for the improvements is funded through a property owner approved
assessment district. The subject district was approved by vote of the property
owners in 2010 and the FY 2013/2014- year of assessments has been collected.
Pursuant to Section 15.01.070.C of the Culver City Municipal Code (CCMC), the
proposed resolution describes any proposed new, or changes in existing,
improvements or services, or both and orders the preparation and filing of the
Engineer’s Report.
Pursuant to Sections 15.01.070.D and 15.01.070.E of the CCMC, should the City
Council adopt the proposed resolution, the Director of Public Works/City Engineer
shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) the Engineer’s Report. Upon its completion,
the Engineer’s Report shall be filed with the City Clerk, and the City Council shall be
presented with a Resolution of Intention declaring the City Council’s intent to levy the City of Culver City, California

assessments for Fiscal Year 2014/2015 and set the date, hour, and place for the
public hearing after which the City Council will consider levying the assessments for
said Fiscal Year.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
Both the costs to prepare the Engineer’s Report and staff time related to the
administration of the Assessment District are charged to the Assessment District.
These costs are estimated to be $3,500. Sufficient funds have been collected in the
Assessment District to fund these costs.
