BACKGROUND
As a condition of approval of Assessor Parcel No. 2839-018-003, located at
17861 Sierra Highway, streetlight improvements are required. Rosanna Haddad, hereinafter
referred to as the "Developer," has agreed to install or provide funds for all necessary on-site
streetlight improvements as required as a condition of the approval of the aforementioned
parcel. The Developer has signed a petition requesting the annexation of this streetlight
maintenance into Santa Clarita Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1(District) as Annexation
No. 2003-L47. This annexation will provide for the continued maintenance of these
improvements after they are installed and accepted by the City.
On January 28, 2003, the City Council considered adoption of a resolution to initiate
proceedings for the annexation of territory into the existing streetlight district. At that time,
the Developer provided the City with a signed petition and an assessment ballot giving
approval to the annexation of property into the District.
By signing the petition, the Developer has waived the time period for holding the public
hearing, the noticing, and the right to majority protest at the public hearing, and has submitted
an assessment ballot in favor of the annexation. Therefore, the public hearing for the
annexation can be held on the same date as the consent calendar item initiating the
annexation.
