16 <br />research in which visitors to similar landscape, open space and parks, at various <br />times of the day, evening, and week, were asked to look at a District map and to <br />identify whether they lived or worked within the City, less than 5% of the use of <br />similar landscape, open space, parks or recreation areas is by the public at large. <br />When people outside the Maintenance District use landscape, open space, <br />parks, or recreation areas, they diminish the availability of such facilities for <br />people within the Maintenance District. Therefore, another 5% of general benefits <br />are allocated for people within the Maintenance District. Combining these two <br />elements of general benefit, we find that 10% of the benefits from the <br />Improvements are general benefits to the public at large. <br />Total General Benefits to be Financially Contributed from Other Funds = <br />10.0% <br />Using a sum of these three measures of general benefit, we find that <br />approximately 10.0% of the benefits conferred by the Improvements may be <br />general in nature and should be funded by sources other than the Assessments. <br />General Benefit Calculation <br />0.0% (Outside the Maintenance District) <br />+ 0.0% (Inside the Maintenance District — indirect and derivative) <br />+ 10.0% (Public at Large) <br />10.0% (Total General Benefit) <br />Source of Financial Contributions from Other Funds to Satisfy the 10.0% <br />Requirement <br />The general benefit contribution is paid in part from other "in-kind", non -monetary <br />contributions from the City in the form of infrastructure critical to the continued <br />maintenance of the Maintenance District Improvements, as described below. <br />Also, general benefit contributions come from the "annuity" value of the <br />improvements that were constructed by the developer. <br />The City of Pleasanton owns, maintains, rehabilitates, and replaces the curb and <br />utter along the border of the Maintenance District. This curb and gutter serve to <br />support, contain, retain, manage irrigation flow and growth, and provide a <br />boundary for the Improvements. The contribution from the City of Pleasanton <br />toward general benefit from the maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement of <br />the curb and gutter is conservatively estimated to be 10%, based upon the <br />relative cost to construct and maintain this critical local infrastructure. In other <br />words, if the Maintenance District were required to construct and maintain the <br />local curb and gutter, the budget would increase by at least 10%. <br />The City of Pleasanton owns and maintains a storm drainage system along the <br />border of the Maintenance District. This system serves to prevent flooding and <br />City of Pleasanton <br />Landscape Maintenance District No. 1993-1, Windsor Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2025-26 <br />
