AUTHORITY FOR REPORT This report is prepared in compliance with the requirement of Article 4, Chapter 1, Division 5 of the Street and Highways Code, State of California (Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972). SECTION 2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION This report deals with the establishment of a Landscape Maintenance District for Tentative Tract 12642 and Parcel Map 8617. The District will include all of the numbered and lettered lots within both the Tentative Tract Map and the Parcel Map. Areas included within the work program are the trees and ground cover within lettered lots dedicated to the City, trees and ground cover within the dedicated streets to the City, except ground cover on local streets (those streets on which lots face), trees and ground cover within landscape easements dedicated to the City and other areas required by the Specific Plans or by the City Council, or as dedicated by the various subdivisions. These areas listed above will become part of the active work program, at such time as the specific areas are dedicated to the City. Annual Engineer's reports will be prepared and approved by the City Council defining the specific work programs for each year and the estimated cost for those years. As the development proceeds within the District, the area to be maintained by the District will increase and so will the cost; bowever, the number of units will also increase. It is hoped that the number of units would increase at approximately the same rate as the maintenance area would increase; thereby, keeping constant or decreasing the cost per unit, excluding cost of living increases. The normal process will be the dedication of the areas to the City, then the areas landscaped by the developer, then after a period of maintenance by the developer, the acceptance of maintenance by the Maintenance District. There will be a lag time from the original dedication until the District actually begins the cost of maintaining property. It is intended that the area within Tentative Tract 12643, adjacent to Tentative Tract 12642, may annex to this District and the landscaped areas dedicated to the City, within Tentative Tract 12643, would become part of the active work program of the District. SECTION 3. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS (SCOPE OF WORK) The plans and specifications and installation for all landscaping will be completed by the developers at their cost for the individual areas to be maintained within each subdivision and be approved by the Community Development Department. Maintenance Activities Detail maintenance activities on the areas to be maintained by the District include: The repair, removal or replacement of all or any part of any improvement, providing for the life, growth, health and beauty of the landscaping, including cultivation, irrigation, trimming, spraying, fertilizing or treating for disease or injury; the removal of trimmings, rubbish, debris and other solid waste, the maintenance, repair and replacement as necessary of all irrigation systems, and the removal of graffiti from walls immediately adjacent to the cultivated areas. SECTION 4. ESTI~ATED COSTS No costs will be incurred by the District for original improvement construction. Based on data from other cities, and from the City of Rancho Cucamonga for landscaping maintenance District No. 1 ant from a review of proposed landscaping plans, it is estimated that the maintenance cost for assessment purposes, based upon current dollars, estimated areas to be maintained and estimated number of completed dwelling units will be as follows: Complete District The estimated cost (at current dollars) for the District upon completion of all areas within Tentative Tract 12642 is shown below: Equestrian Trail - 18,900 s.f. e 0.05 = $ 945 Parkways, Slopes ~ Greenbelts - 382,200 s.f. e 0.25 = $ 95,550 Trees - 950 e $5.00 = $ 4,700 TOTAL ANNUAL MAINTENANCE COST = $101,195 SECTION 5.
