I put my name in to speak but, unfortunately, was not called to speak. I 'm unable to attend today ' s hearing and would like my statement lodgettin the record. My husband and I are seven-year residents of Pacheco and live in a subdivision with an existing Landscape District Assess- ment . The only one currently in the Town of Pacheco. We have seen what a good job the County has done with our area and support this new District 100 percent. Also, I have attended the Town Council meetings addressing this topic and never heard anyone object to the proposed District, including the mobile home residents. The Town of Pacheco has attempted volunteer programs for land- scaping in the Town ' s general areas, but to no avail . That is why so many homeowners that I have spoken with are in favor of this new District. It is a nominal annual charge with a huge benefit to the entire community. It will improve the aesthetics, safety, property values and enjoyment of all residents in Pacheco. I would like to address one other issue as well . It seemed from last Tuesday ' s hearing that many of you have your minds made up on the issue of "taking this to a vote. " While I agree that voting is a fair and democratic process and should be utilized; I don' t feel, however, that you should "change the rules" on this proposed District more than half-way through the process . ' � J TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page 2 June 11 , 1996 I have been working with the Town Council and County since the beginning of this year to, hopefully, have an implementa- tion by August . It ' s June and if the rules are changed now, who knows how long it would take to implement and at more cost and manpower to the County. With regards to this proposed Pacheco District, every parcel owner has had the required notice and opportunity to voice their protest or consent by writing and verbally by these hearings . The opposition has been by written protest only of less than 10 percent. I urge you to reconsider the changing of the rules more than half-way through the process because it would not be fair to the County Public Works and parcel owners who have worked hard on its implementation. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Li a N.

The Board, however, may �,,Ish to consider an advisory vote, Town Hall meetings, or some other process to solic : additional public input with respect to the formation of the EI Sobrante and Pacheco zc ies. In order to begin, assessment in fiscal year 1996-97, the Board needs to form the zones, annex them to the 3 Countywide Landscape District and set the assessment level by the end of July.

The Pacheco MAC works closely with the Pacheco Town Council,representing a wide cross section of the community,and has long recognized the need for area wide landscape and park improvements. However,Pacheco has not had the funding source to implement a community beautification program. Over the years,the surrounding,communities of Pleasant Hill,Concord,and Martinez have grown and developed with new landscaping and frontage improvements which have further underscored the need for landscape improvements in Pacheco. Now,the Pacheco MAC and Town Council needs the support of the community in the form of a small$30.00 per single family parcel,per year,assessment to make these needed landscape and park improvements. Community members and Public Works staff have developed a projects list of potential beautification sites along the Pacheco Boulevard,Marsh Drive,Aspen Drive and Center Avenue corridors. In addition to the area wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for linear park improvements along the Flood Control channel along Aspen Drive and numerous other projects in the years to come. Unlike general taxes,this assessment can only be used in the Pacheco community allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the Pacheco community. The estimated assessment proposed for your parcel for Fiscal Year 1996-97 is shown on the attached insert of this notice. The typical annual assessment for a single family residence in the Zone is$30.00 for fiscal year 1996-97,and shall not exceed$30.00 without further notice of the required public hearings. The actual amount of the assessment is based on the property type and may vary from�/:to 3 times the single family rate. Mobile homes are assessed at%x the single-family rate per mobile home space. The methodology for determining the annual assessment is found in the Engineer's Report on file at the Clerk of the Board's Office. The proposed assessments are based an an equal share of all parcels within the Zone. Said funds are restricted for use solely within zone 5 for the purposes of which it was assessed. The Board of Supervisors will hold two public hearings: Tuesday,June 4, 1996 at 11:00 a:m.and Tuesday,June 11, 1996 at 11:00 am. in the Board Chambers County Administration Building located at 651 Pine Street,Martinez,California to consider the levy and collection of annual assessments for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1996,and ending June 30, 1997.

The R-9 Advisory Committee,appointed to advise the Board of Supervisors on local parks and recreation matters, has long recognized a community-wide need for increased park, landscaping and recreation facilities for the El Sobrante valley. Over the years,the R-9 Committee has partnered with the East Bay Regional Parks District for the renovation of the Senior Center at Kennedy Grove and the acquisition of the Hill-Radach property and scenic area. More recently the Committee has partnered with the West Contra Costa Unified School District to provide$287,300 in Park Dedication Trust Fund fees for needed play field and new play equipment installation at six local schools servicing the El Sobrante community. Funding these worthwhile projects has nearly depleted all available cash and grant reserves. Now the R-9 Committee needs the support of the community in the form of small,$30.00 per single family parcel,per year assessment to continue improving local parks and begin the installation of landscaping along the Appian Way,San Pablo Dam Road and Valley View Road corridors. In addition to area-wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for continued park improvements at the local school sites,the creation of a linear park at the View Point property behind De Anza High School and numerous other beautification projects in the years to come. Unlike general taxes,this assessment can only be used in El Sobrante allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the valley.
