Page 24 <br /> Benefit to Property Inside the Assessment Districts that is Indirect and <br /> Derivative <br /> The"indirect and derivative" benefit to property within the District is particularly difficult <br /> to calculate. A solid argument can be presented that all benefit within the District is <br /> special because the other improvements are clearly"over and above"and"particular and <br /> distinct" when compared with the baseline level of service and the unique proximity, <br /> access and views of the other improvements enjoyed by benefiting properties in the <br /> District. <br /> Nevertheless, the SVTA decision indicates there may be general benefit "conferred on <br /> real property located in the district."A measure of the general benefits to property within <br /> the Assessment area is the percentage of land area within or directly abutting the District <br /> that is publicly owned and used for regional purposes such as regional parks,major roads, <br /> rail lines and other regional facilities because such properties used for regional purposes <br /> could provide indirect benefits to the public at large. The Assessment boundaries are <br /> narrowly drawn to include only the residential parcels within Tracts 4986, 5093, 5160- <br /> 5163, 5224, 5256, 5257, and 5281 and there are no regional facilities within the <br /> Assessment District. Therefore, the indirect and derivative general benefits to property <br /> within the Assessment District are zero. <br /> General Benefit Inside the District(Indirect and Derivative)=0.0% <br /> Benefit To The Public At Large <br /> The general benefit to the public at large can be estimated by the proportionate amount <br /> of time that the Assessment's improvements are used and enjoyed by individuals who are <br /> not residents or property owners in the Assessment District.These improvements do not <br /> attract the public at large in the same way as park improvements,and they confer far less <br /> benefit to the public at large than do similar park improvements. In essence, the public <br /> does not visit an area to enjoy outdoor and landscaped area improvements in the same <br /> way as they may visit a park. <br /> City of Pleasanton <br /> Ponderosa-Del Prado Landscape Maintenance District 2026-1 SCIConsultingGroup <br /> Engineer's Report Public Finance Consulting Services <br />
