This report evaluates the benefits received by various classes of properties as to their relative benefits and spreads the costs based upon the approved method of distribution. The estimated annual maintenance costs and requisite maintenance program are also part of the report. After submission of the Engineer' s Report, the City Council conducts a public hearing in June to consider protests, comments concerning the costs, method of spread and other pertinent matters. The Engineer' s Report must be approved and the assessments levied prior to July 1. Under recently enacted legislation (Streets and Highways Code Section 22640), this date may be extended to no later than the third Monday in August if authorized by the County Auditor. At this time, Staff does not foresee a problem with meeting the July 1 date. A copy of the Engineer' s Report for the current year has been previously provided to the Council . This explains the method of spread and related matters. Any major change to the current method of spread will result in additional costs. Such was the case in 1986-87, when the Council opted to modify the method of spread for street lighting to include a lower assessment for lots fronting on a street without street. lights. The cost for preparation of the Engineer' s Report has been included in the adopted Budget.
