ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding Resolution No. 2380. A Resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Luis, Arizona, declaring its intention to provide the enhanced municipal services with installation, operation, maintenance and repair on certain landscape improvements included within, near, and adjacent to the retention and parking and parkways and related facilities together with appurtenant structures serving the area described as Orchidea Park Subdivision, San Luis, Arizona. (Jose A. Guzman, Director of Development Services)
SUMMARY:
As a requirement of the City of San Luis Subdivision Regulations, all developers are responsible for completely landscaping their development projects according to the approved plans. In particular, subdivisions are required to provide landscaping along certain arterial and collector streets, in retention basins, and in other locations as provided in city regulations. In addition, developers may provide paths, trails, and other recreational amenities in the common open space areas adjacent to arterial and collector streets. Neighborhood landscape amenities add value to properties, enhance walkability, and improve community aesthetics.
The state legislature permits the creation of Municipal Improvement Districts for cities and towns to provide a dedicated funding stream for installation, maintenance, repair, and improvements of pedestrian malls, off-street parking facilities, retention basins, and parking and parkways. This Improvement District will be utilized for maintenance and improvement of the landscape and other amenities serving Orchidea Park Subdivision. Residents within the Improvement District will pay a special assessment on their property tax bill.
This resolution authorizes the creation of the Orchidea Park Subdivision Landscape Improvement District to serve the Orchidea Park Subdivision. After approval of this resolution, a second resolution ordering the improvements is needed to finalize the formation of the Improvement District process.
