PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
The annual encroachment assessments have been completed by the Finance Department and are ready to be spread on the tax rolls by resolution, following a public hearing. An encroachment is any private occupancy of the public right of way, such as fences, signs or downtown street side patios.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
The Council may:
- Approve the resolution; or
- Not approve the resolution, and the Public Works Engineering Fund would be responsible to pay for the assessments.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The standard encroachment fee is $1/sq. ft./year and a list of the assessments is attached
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing and adopt the encroachment assessment resolution.
