ITEM 5 (402-27)
LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT 87-1
1996-97 ASSESSMENTS
Staff report by City Manager Bowersox. This item was continued from June 18,
1996 in order for staff to meet with the South Poway Business Park property
owners to explain the differences in the assessments for Pomerado Business Park
from Parkway Business Centre and Poway Corporate Center. Last year the property
being maintained by Pomerado under a Landscape Development Association was folded
into the LMD at their request and their LMD assessments are higher to reflect
that. The LMD assessment is less than their former costs. The discussion now
centers on the Development Agreement language regarding maintenance of the scenic
highway. Staff recommends adoption of a resolution establishing assessments.
Speaking in opposition to staff recommendation:
Linda Richardson, 13124 Tobiasson Road
Eric Dye, 350 W. Ash, San Diego, representing the new property owner of
Pomerado Business Park, requested a continuance since they are new to this
project and need time to review the development agreement.
Staff stated that action must be taken by August 6 in order to meet the County
Assessor's deadline for getting tax rates on the tax rolls.
Motion by Councilmember Cafagna, seconded by Councilmember Callery, to continue
this item to July 30, 1996. Motion carried 4-0 with Councilmember Emery absent.
