1989 02 14 CC Minutesj LA QUINTA CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 14, 1989 Special meeting of the La Quinta City Council was called to order at the hour of 7:30 P.M., in the La Quinta Community Center, 77-865 Avenida Montezuma, Mayor Pena presiding, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. PRESENT: Council Members Bohnenberger, Bosworth, Rushworth, Sniff, Mayor Pena ABSENT: None PUBLIC HEARINGS 1. PUBLIC HEARING OF PROTESTS TO FORMATION OF ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 88-1 FOR NATURAL GAS AND SANITARY SEWER. Mrs. Juhola, City Clerk, advised that the City Council has received copies of the affidavits of publication, posting and mailing in accordance with the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913. Mr. Stradling, Bond Counsel, advised that this proceeding is taken pursuant to the Majority Protest Act 1931 and the 1913 Assessment District Act. He reviewed the procedures which will be followed this evening advising that reports will be made by both the Assessment Engineer and Financial Advisor. The Mayor will call for protests and everyone will be given three minutes in which to speak. He noted that if this proceeding is consummated and the assessment is confirmed, the people will have a 30 day cash period and if they do not pay cash, then the unpaid assessment will go to a bond. the people will then have 15 years to pay the principal and interest. There will be a discount? for a cash payment. Mayor Pena added that those wishing to protest will be heard first. Mr. Kicak, Assessment Engineer, advised that there are 957 parcels comprising 127.47 acres. There have been 351 written protests to the natural gas assessment which represents 41.52 acres or 32.57% of all the properties within the District. There have been 311 written protests to the sewer assessment representing 39.6 acres or 31.07% of all the properties within the District. Mr. Kicak then reviewed the boundaries as being bounded by Calle Tecate on the south; Calle Madrid on the north; the length of Bermudas from Calle Cadiz on the north and Calle Tecate on the south. He then reviewed the proposed improvements.

His original estimate was $5,558,543.50. It was on the estimate that the preliminary notice was based. As a result in the reduction of costs from the Engineer's estimate, there will be a reduction in cost of both the sewer and gas. Sanitary sewer will be decreased from $1,503 for a 50' lot down to $1,287. Natural gas will be decreased from $870 to $761. Total assessment will then be decreased from $2,321 to $2,048. Mr. Fieldman, Financial Consultant, advised that the financing was broken into two parts one part for the sewer system and one for the gas line in order to conform with the Tax Reform Act of 1986 which says, in effect, that if the ownership of the facility was in private hands then the bonds would be sold on a taxable interest and the bonds would be taxable. To finance a public improvement, i.e., the sewers, then the interest on the bonds would be tax exempt. On that basis, it was decided that we would offer the sewer bonds on a sealed competitive bid and to negotiate that portion that pertains to the gas improvements. The gas bonds were negotiated at a discount of 2 1/2 % with a net effect of interest rate of 10.39%. We received seven bids for the sewer portion of the financing. The discount ranged from 2.95% to 3%. The net effect of the best bid was an effective rate of 7.08%. The combined total of the two bids amounts to a total assessment each year of $244.00 to completely amortize the debt over a 15 year period. At this time, the Mayor called for PROTESTS. GARY SCHAEFFER, 54-055 Avenida Martinez, questioned where the waste water will be pumped and Mr. Kicak advised that it will be pumped to the Cook Street Sewerage Treatment Plant and understood that at least two golf courses are receiving the effluent. Mr. Schaeffer also questioned why anyone would want a gas line since everyone has all-electric homes. Mr. Reynolds advised that the City is not pushing for installation of a natural gas line or sewer line, this is an opportunity for the people to have them if they wish, if they don't wish, both can be protested out. Mr. Schaeffer also questioned the cost per home to tie into the line and Mr. Reynolds advised that the $1,575 Capacity Charge must first be paid to CVWD; the cost to run the line to the home from the street will run $10 to $15 per foot. He added that there is also a cost to abandon a septic tank. Mr. Schaeffer asked to go on record in opposition. LEE ECKES, 54-330 Avenida Diaz, questioned why the residents should pay to install a gas line for the gas company. He felt that there was inadequate notice.

It is anticipated that if it proceeds, it will be placed on the December tax rolls. He added that how rapidly all phases proceed will depend on how monies come into the Redevelopment Agency. E. L. BUSH, 53-725 Avenida DiaZ, asked why the City is proposing sewers and gas. Mayor Pena advised that the City is planning to install new streets, curbs, and gutters and rather than tearing up these improvements in the future, it was decided to let the people decide if they wish to see these other improvements go in at the same time. Mr. Bush then asked how the septic tanks are abandoned and Mr. Reynolds advised that the Health Department requires that they be filled with sand after they are pumped. Mr. Kiedrowski added that no one is going to be required to abandon their septic tanks and hook up to the sewer system as long as their tanks are functioning efficiently. New construction will be required to hook up. Existing septic tanks will function longer by placing all future development on a sewer system, commenting on the density of the cove upon build-out. LINDA COLLINS, 54-585 Avenida Ramirez, stated that she cannot afford these improvements and does not need gas and sewer. In response to Council Member Bohnenberger, Mr. Kiedrowski reviewed the subsidy program being established to assist low to moderate income households to pay those assessments. AUDREY OSTROWSKY, P.O. BOX 351, La Quinta, felt that the people really aren't against the installation of sewer and gas it's the payment and believed that the City funds these expenses for business, but not residents. She also believed that many people did not receive their notices. OLIVE STEDMAN, 43-300 Elkhorn, Palm Desert, property owner within Phase I advised that she has been trying to sell her lots but has been unable to do so because of this controversy. GEORGE SHELTON, 54-775 Avenida Alvarado, felt that the whole character of the City is changing and people will no longer be able to afford to live here. He believed that the protest is significant and the City Council should not ignore it. He asked that this decision be delayed. MURIEL PARKER, 54-885 Avenida Alvarado, advised that he did not receive notification of this meeting. Mr. Kicak advised that notices were sent to the address in which property tax notices are sent. Of 957 notices, about 34 were returned undeliverable, but an attempt was made to notify those persons.

He was against the people having to bear the cost of installing a gas line. He also noted that people who have FHA and VA loans, probably did not receive their notices as they were sent to the lender. He expressed opposition to the gas line. LEE ALBERT, 54-825 Avenida Rubio, advised that he moved here as result of discussions with the City's previous Economic Development Director. His septic tank is only six months old. He was in favor of sewer installation, but not gas for reasons already stated by others. However, after seeing the complete figures as someone placed on his door) he is angry as he's never seen these figures before. He felt that the City has not done their homework as there seems to be many unanswered questions. He was opposed to installation of both sewer and gas. JIM PARNELL, 54-021 Cortez, felt that a study should be done to establish the need. He asked if the majority of the people protest, does the City Council have the power to over-ride the protest. Mr. Stradling advised that the Council cannot proceed if there is 50+% protest unless they vote to do so on a 4/5 affirmative vote. The Mayor then called for those speaking in SUPPORT. JOHN HANCOCK, owner of Lots 17 and 18 in Block 206, advised that in other cities, special consideration has been given to already improved lots, i.e., that they are charged perhaps one half of the normal assessment. He felt that there should be some relief given to people who have existing homes who do not need these services. The reason is that eventually they will need the services and will then be coming in to connect. Regarding the gas line, he understood that the Gas Company refunds to the public after the lines are in use and asked how this works. Mr. Kiedrowski advised that the Gas Company will rebate that directly to the homeowner who installs gas appliances. PATRICE d'ENTREMONT, 54-565 Avenida Rubio, advised that she did not receive notification, but has only owned her home since December. She applauded the City for their foresight commenting that it's easy to become a blighted area. She was concerned about the costs and hoped that the City could look for other monies that could assists people in paying for these assessments. Mr. Kicak and Mr. Reynolds advised that to their knowledge there are no other funds available for the payment of these assessments.

He advised that he has been a resident of the City for two years in Phase 11. There are lots of children playing in the streets; the streets have no striping; there are cars parked in yards and on streets; and there are water problems. He felt that parks are taking care of the children and that curbs and gutter will help eliminate the parking of cars in yards. He was in favor of an upgrade in water facilities. In Cathedral City an Assessment District was established in which his assessment for only sewer was $5,000. Therefore, he felt that the costs proposed here are not out of line. YVONE DAVIS, 77-841 Calle Sonora, stated that these improvements will have to be made at some point in the future as the septic tanks will pollute the ground water eventually. In the long term, this is the best thing for the community. BRUCE FRANKLIN, 55-900 Riviera, La Quinta, advised that he owns property in Phase II and felt that the City Council is here to hear the people and should be commended. The streets, curbs, gutter and water facilities will be installed at no cost to the property owner. Consideration has to be given to sewer and gas at this point if planning is being done appropriately. He preferred to pay $2,000 now than more later on. LARRY ALLEN, 53-781 Herrera, agreed that the Council should be commended on their foresight to be able to do all these improvements at no cost to the homeowners. Sewers will have to go in at some point in time when the Cove is built out. He did object to installation of gas lines as he felt that the Gas Company should be installing the lines at their cost. ELVA VELASQUEZ, 51-343 Avenida Vallejo, advised that she did not receive a notice of this hearing and Mayor Pena advised that the reason is because she is not located in the first phase. WALLY REYNOLDS, 79-860 Fiesta, asked that this same offer be made to the Indian Springs residents. STEVE RIEN, 54-952 Avenida Obregon, advised that his landlord did not know about this hearing. He favored the installation of sanitary sewer, but not gas as all of the homes are already all-electric. He felt that more information is needed. He questioned what the Capacity Charge of CVWD pays for and Mr. Reynolds advised that it is for maintenance and operation of the sewerage treatment plant and future expansion; and it covers the trunk system and maintenance and operation of the pump station. ANN YOUNG, P.O. Box 1384, President of the La Quinta Cove Association, could not understand the rush to push this project through. She felt that a needs study should be done. Why can't the project wait a few years when the City could pay the entire cost through the Redevelopment Agency? The majority of the members of the La Quinta Cove Association asks the City Council to reconsider this proposal.

She asked how the street improvements are being paid and Mr. Kiedrowski advised that the Redevelopment Agency will be paying those costs through tax increment financing and proceeded to explain tax increments. Regarding her question as to who is paying for the water system upgrade, Mr. Reynolds advised that CVWD has committed one million dollars each year for ten years to upgrade the water system in La Quinta. Mrs. Jackson felt that this cost is going to hurt a lot of people. STEVE ABRAHAM, 53-815 Avenida Carranza, advised that he assisted the Cove Association in their survey and he found only six people in Phase I who were in favor. Many people were not informed as to the total cost to connect to the system. He felt that this procedure should stop until the City finds a better way to fund the improvements. TOM HORTON, 52-450 Avenida Diaz, asked if the cost for Phase II will be same as Phase I and Mr. Kicak advised that there is no guarantee, noting that each phase will be put to bid, so the construction cost could vary. CHARLIE BIRD, 77-600 Monterey, felt that the sewer installation should be paid for by the City and he did not believe that all work will be done together, i.e, streets, water, sewer and gas. Mr. Kicak advised that the assessment for sewerage was based on frontage; a unit of benefit; and a lateral and for gas it was based on frontage and unit of service. He believed that the assessment as spread is equitable and uniform throughout the district. The total project cost is 7.5 million dollars. Of that amount, 4 million will be funded by the Redevelopment Agency and 1.5 million will be funded by the Coachella valley Water District. The property owners are paying 2 million of the total cost. Regarding the refunds from the Gas Company, that amount will be based on the type of units being connected. He presented a map of Phase I indicating the lots that have filed protests. There was a total of 196 property owners who wrote in support of sewer and 141 in favor of gas. Additionally, the majority of responses received were from occupied parcels. Mr. Kiedrowski noted that a number of people own two adjoining lots and they could save a significant amount of money by merging their lots. Mr. Kicak advised that the normal assessment for both gas and sewer for two 50 lots would be $4,096.88, whereas, if they were merged, the total assessment would be $2,454.59.

Motion carried unanimously. MINUTE ORDER NO. 89-19. Mr. Kicak advised that as a result of the hearing, the final protest figures are as follows: Gas Protests represents 42.02 acres or 32.96% and Sewer Protests represents 39.72 acres or 31.16%. Council Member Sniff stated that he has given this matter a great deal of thought, and that it's been a difficult decision. He personally would have felt more secure if there had been a study and report by a qualified technical expert on the current condition of, and useful life of our septic tank and cesspool system in the Cove and its possible relation and effect an the our underground water supply. Regarding the gas line, he felt that the cost is excessive and that the Gas Company can put in and extend lines when demand warrants. When a survey was done to determine the need for gas, the response was minimal. He wanted to see this decision set-aside in order to have a study before the Council, as he felt he needed more information in order to make this decision. Council Member Bosworth advised that she is on the Council to represent the people and there has been more protests than she thought there would be. Therefore, she would like to see the study continued and not rush through it and perhaps have more money available to the residents. Council Member Rushworth felt that this project has been before the people long enough to make a reasonable decision. He felt that the engineers who studied this knew what they were doing. The protest is far less than 50% and he felt the people who are spending all this time protesting it would protest the spending of money on a study. He felt that we would be burying our heads in the sand if we don't do it now, when we have a chance to do it for less money than in the future and to improve the whole attitude of the Cove with this improvement. He saw no reason to delay it. Council Member Bohnenberger stated that this issue has been discussed for over a year it is not new. A questionnaire was sent out to the property owners over a year ago to see if there was any interest in proceeding with several underground utilities when the street improvements were done. The survey included gas, sewer, telephone, and electrical and the positive results were on sewer and gas. This matter has been addressed in two newsletters, public mailings and public meetings and the total costs were addressed. He advised that the City is not going to require anyone to hook into the lines. He also pointed out that the Redevelopment Agency is paying the costs of rebuilding the streets and installing storm drains, curbs and gutters and the Water District is paying to replace the water lines. In the past five years, the CVWD has spent five million dollars in BIB] 02-13-96-U01 03:37:55PM-U01 CCMIN-U02 02-U02 14-U02 1989-U02 BIB] 02-13-96-U01 03:37:55PM-U01 CCMIN-U02 02-U02 14-U02 1989-U02 BIB] 02-13-96-U01 03:37:55PM-U01 CCMIN-U02 02-U02 14-U02 1989-U02 BIB] 02-13-96-U01 03:37:55PM-U01 CCMIN-U02 02-U02 14-U02 1989-U02 jCity Council Minutes page 8 February 14, 1989 improving that system and over the next seven to eight years, they're going to put in another million dollars a year to upgrade the entire system. They are also paying a part of the sewer system because part of it is the trunk line. He pointed out that 70% of the property owners are supporting the project. He also pointed out that there is a subsidy program available for those low to moderate income households. He concluded in saying that property values will go up an equal amount of the assessment. JIM PARNELL, 54-021 Avenida Cortez, stated that present money is always worth more than future money. Council Member Bohnenberger felt that the time is right and wished to see the City proceed with this project immediately. To hold it up to do more study will be counter-productive to what we're trying to do in upgrading the Cove area. In response to questions by Mayor pena, Mr. Kiedrowski advised that renters did not get notification, however, they did receive the City's newsletters. The process used is the legal process the use of the last equalized property tax roll. Mr. Kicak added that a total of 34 letters were returned undeliverable. Staff has attempted to locate these individuals and some were remailed. During the last few weeks he advised that his staff maintained office hours in City Hall two days a week and during that time, over 120 property owners came in to see them and 20% of them were from out of town. Mayor Pena did not believe that it would behoove us to enter into another study he did not need a study to tell him that eventually the ground water will become polluted. He also pointed out that people are not going to be required to hook up only the Health Department can require a hook-up based upon a fact-finding that a health hazard exists. He asked if La Quinta is the only City in Coachella valley that does not have sewer and Mr. Reynolds believed that we are. Mayor Pena commented that a pocket-book" issue is always emotional and is always a difficult decision. It's one that everyone has to work together on until the project is completed. A lady in the audience asked why Council Member Bohnenberger is being allowed to vote an this issue since he is employed by the Coachella valley Water District and Council Member Bohnenberger advised that this issue has been check out by legal counsel and the Fair political practices Commission and it has been determined that no conflict of interest exist. He is just an employee and does not stand to gain financially. CVWD is a non-profit organization with an elected Board of Directors by the residents. Council Member Sniff asked if all notices were mailed by Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested and Mr. Kicak advised they were not they were mail by first-class mail.

Council Member Rushworth stated that he favored both gas and sewer and Council Member Bohnenberger stated the same. Mayor Pena stated that we have talked about cleaning up and beautifying the Cove and felt that the City has gone beyond the letter of the law in notifying property owners. He felt that we need to go forward with this project. He questions the affect on the bond rating if this project is delayed and Mr. Stradling advised that the bids are good until the close of this hearing, then they are automatically withdrawn and he added that the construction bids would also be lost. Mayor Pena responded to Council Member Bohnenberger advising that he was opposed to the gas line. Mr. Fieldman advised that the resolutions would be modified to reflect the deletion of any reference to installation of gas lines.
