HILLCREST HEIGHTS GEOLOGIC HAZARD ABATEMENT DISTRICT
JUNE 4, 1996
PAGE TWO .
M. Reasons for Recommendations and Background: (Continued)
The Plan of Control describes the work contemplated for this district, including maintenance, monitoring,
and funding.Funding for the GHAD will be based on a parcel assessment from each improved lot in the
subdivision. It is anticipated that approximately$60,000 will be accumulated as a reserve during the initial
three year build-out period. This reserve will only be used for general maintenance, repair of slides and
erosion control within the District. Parcel assessments will continue to be collected annually and used
for maintenance. Unexpended funds will augment the reserve for the following year. It is anticipated that
the homeowners of the subdivision will assume the responsibilities as the Board of Directors of the
GHAD after the first four years.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
The project will not be able to proceed because no building permits may be issued without a GHAD being
formed.
