City of Pleasanton <br />Landscape Maintenance District No. 1993-1, Windsor <br />Engineer’s Report <br /> <br />Page 23 <br /> <br />The following benefit categories summarize the types of special benefit to <br />residenƟal and other lots and parcels resulƟng from installaƟon, maintenance and <br />servicing of landscaping, irrigaƟon, sidewalks, signs, lights and other <br />improvements to be provided with the assessment proceeds. These categories of <br />special benefits are derived from the statutes passed by the California Legislature <br />and studies which describe the types of special benefit received by property from <br />maintenance and improvements such as those provided by the City of Pleasanton, <br />LighƟng and Landscaping Maintenance District No. 1993-1, Windsor. These types <br />of special benefit are summarized as follows: <br />A. Improved access to landscaped areas and other permanent public <br />improvements <br />B. Proximity to improved landscaped areas and other permanent public <br />improvements <br />C. Improved views <br />D. Extension of a property’s outdoor areas and landscaped areas for <br />properƟes within close proximity to the Improvements. <br />E. CreaƟon of individual lots for residenƟal use that, in absence of the <br />assessments, would not have been created <br />The above benefit factors, when applied to property in the Maintenance District, <br />specifically increase the uƟlity and usefulness of the property within the <br />Maintenance District. For example, the assessments will provide funding to <br />improve and maintain the public landscaping next to the parcels within the <br />Maintenance District. Such improved and well-maintained landscaping enhances <br />the overall quality, desirability, uƟlity and safety of the properƟes. <br />Page 144 of 617
