Annexation Nos. 2004-L63, 2004-L64, and 2004-L65.

The City of Santa Clarita proposes to take over the operation and maintenance of the streetlight
improvements constructed by Newhall Land (Developer) for APN 2811-001-146 (McBean
Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road), Enrique and Liset Valencia (Developer) for 25010 Atwood
Boulevard, and Roman Catholic Archbishop of Los Angeles (Developer) for 22508 Copper Hill

covered through a combination of property tax revenue and direct assessments. The City will
annex the following territories as:
Annexation No. 2004-L63, APN 2811-001-146 (McBean Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road)

The Developers provided the City with signed petitions and assessment ballots that approve the
annexation of their respective properties into the District. By signing their petitions, the
Developers waived the time period for holding the public hearing, noticing, and the right to
majority protest at the public hearing. Each Developer 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 proposed annual lighting maintenance assessment is $50.00 for each Equivalent Dwelling
Unit (EDU), which is the Fiscal Year 2004-2005 assessment rate. This rate may increase each
year by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The total assessment that would
be generated, based on this $50/EDU rate is:
Annexation No. 2004-L63, McBean Parkway and Newhall Ranch Road, APN 2811-001-146.
The proposed annual lighting maintenance assessment is $450.00 per lot, one (1) lot total, for
a total of $450.00.
Annexation No. 2004-L64, 25010 Atwood Boulevard. The proposed annual lighting
maintenance assessment is $50.00 per lot, one (1) lot total, for a total annual assessment of
$50.00.
Annexation No. 2004-L65, 22508 Copper Hill Drive. The proposed annual lighting
maintenance assessment is $350.00 per lot, one (1) lot total, for a total annual assessment of
$350.00.
These annexations are in compliance with Proposition 218.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
The annexation of these territories will ensure collection of future assessments from these
properties, which will offset the expenses incurred by the installation of the necessary streetlights
for these projects. These annexations will provide for the continued maintenance of these
improvements after they are installed and accepted by the City.
