Gilbert, Director of Public Works DATE: November 26, 1990 (Council Meeting 12 -5 -90) SUBJECT: Consider of Use of Surplus AD 84 -2 Funds for Tract 2865 OVERVIEW This presents for consideration the approval of the use of surplus Assessment District 84 -2 assessments for the construction of parkway improvements on the north side of Tierra Rejada Road near Southhampton Road (Pacifica). DISCUSSION A. Background 1. Assessment District 84 -2 included an annual improvement assessment (for four years) in the amount of $57,000 to be spread among the lots within Tract 2865. The last of the four assessments was levied last fiscal year (FY 1989/90). 2. The funds generated by these assessments ($228,000) were to be used for the construction of median landscaping improvements on Tierra Rejada Road. 3. Amounts were paid to Pacifica Development ($27,843) and to Pardee Development ($56,068) for construction of some of the hardscapes related to these improvements. The total amount of improvement assessments remaining after these payments was $144,098. 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, Califomia 93021 (805) 529 -6864 s Surplus AD 84 -2 Funds December 5, 1990 Page 2 B. Median Improvement Project Included elsewhere on this agenda is a report related to the acceptance of the recently completed median improvements on Tierra Rejada Road. That report included a summary of final costs for the project shown here again as follows: C. Surplus Improvement Assessments As indicated above, the funds generated by the improvement assessment portion of AD 84 -2, exceed the total expenditures by $60,974. D. Remaining Street Landscaping Deficiencies Landscaping improvements along all of that portion of Tierra Rejada Road within Tract 2865 are now complete, with the exception of the parkway on the north side of Tierra Rejada Road from a point west of Spring Road to a point east of Hidden Pines Ct. (Pacifica). The existing block wall along this portion of the parkway has recesses provided for tree wells. However, there has been no provision made for irrigation systems. In addition, there is insufficient areas provided for ground cover, shrubs and wall clinging vines. E. Candidate Parkway Improvement Project The above deficiencies could be remedied with a project which would remove portions of the existing sidewalk and install irrigation and landscaping. For consistency, the design of this parkway could be made the same as the existing parkway improvements recently installed by Pardee Construction Company on their portion of Tract 2865 [Note: The Pardee portion of the north side parkway was constructed by the developer and NOT funded by the Assessment District.] This design was intended to provide a visual and aesthetic relief to the eight feet wide sidewalk and the lengthy block wall.
