BACKGROUND
As a condition of approval of Assessor Parcel No. 2839-018-002, located at 17873 Siena
Highway, streetlight improvements are required. Froylan G. Huanosta, hereinafter referred to as
the "Developer," is developing the property as a day care center. The Developer has agreed to
install or provide funds for all necessary on-site streetlight improvements as required. 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. 2003-1-57.
This annexation will provide for the continued maintenance of these improvements after they are
installed and accepted by the City.
On March 9, 2004, the City Council considered adoption of a resolution to initiate proceedings to
annex the territory into the existing streetlight district. At that time, the Developer provided the
City 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.
The resolution annexes Assessor Parcel No. 2839-018-002, into Streetlight Maintenance District
No. 1 as Annexation No. 2003-1-57. The proposed annual lighting maintenance assessment is
$100 per lot, for a total of $100. The annexation of this territory is in compliance with
Proposition 218.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
The annexation of this territory will ensure collection of future assessments from this property,
which will offset the expenses incurred by the installation of the necessary streetlights for this
project. This annexation will provide for the continued maintenance of these improvements after
they are installed and accepted by the City.
