The Council finds and determines: (A) That the Council proposes to form its Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 1 (the "Assessment District") and to levy and collect an assessment for FY 1989-90, to be collected on the utility bills for subscribers within the boundaries of that Assessment District pursuant to the provisions of the Landscaping & Lighting Assessment District Act of 1972, Streets & Highways Code Sections 22500 et.seq., such assessment to be known as the "community maintenance fee;" and (B) That the following improvements are to be installed, constructed, maintained, administered and serviced within such Assessment District: city parks, median and other landscaping along city streets with the Assessment District as well as associated curb, gutters, drains and streets. (C) That the proposed Assessment District has the same boundaries as the City, as more fully described in Exhibit "A", attached and incorporated by this reference; i and (D) That the Assessment District shall be known as the City of Azusa and Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 1; and (E) That the Board has requested that Roy Bruckner, the City Engineer, prepare the engineer's report as described in Street and Highways Code Sections 22565- 22574, but providing for assessment and collection based on the utility users; W • (F) That the City conferred by the assessment assessing property holders and 0 has determined that the benefit may be spread most fairly by as represented by users; (G) That rules for providing electric service provide for service to property owners or those with an interest in real property including a possessory interest based on the type of uses such as residential (both single and multi -family), commercial (varying by size) and industrial; and (H) That the City provides utility service and proposes to collect the assessments on the utility bill; and (I) That collection on the utility bill is fairer than tax roll collection, as approximately half of Azusa residents are renters and such collection does not lead to foreclosure on property for non-payment. Section 2. Now, therefore, the Council resolves and orders: (A) That the above recitals are all true and correct; and (B) That Roy Bruckner shall prepare and file with the Council a report as set out herein and in accordance with Streets & Highways Code Sections 22556-22574 for the formation of the Assessment District, the installation, construction, maintenance, administration and service of the improvements, and the levy of an assessment within the Assessment District for such installation, construction, maintenance, administration and service for Fiscal Year 1989-90, to be collected on the utility bill.
