required to provide landscape improvements along Golden Valley Road shown on the diagram
for Santa Clarita Landscape Maintenance District No. 1. The District is to provide for the
maintenance and servicing of the landscape improvements and all incidentals thereto. Since
this project is one development, the properties within the development each receive full benefit
from the improvements, i.e., maintenance and servicing. Therefore, because each parcel
benefits equally, the benefit should be proportioned to the number of lots to be created by the
develbpment.
The basis of benefit was determined to be dwelling units, i.e., 1 dwelling unit = 1 benefit unit.
Tract No. 48117 is comprised of 104 single-family dwelling units. Each parcel is assessed based
on the number of dwelling units contained thereon.

water, and electrical charges and all incidentals.

Estimated contributions to be made from sources other than
Assessments Levied Pursuant to the Landscaping And Lighting Act
of1972 ..................................................... $ 0.00
The proposed service involves the installation of landscaping and maintenance and operation
of the landscaping along Golden Valley Road constructed for Tract No. 48117. Tract
No. 48117 is located along Golden Valley Road between Highway 14 and Green Mountain

in Tract No. 48117. The recordation of the final map for Tract No. 48117 divided the
