<br />Mr. Wise states that the estimate of $$3,500.000 for City owned land and capita improements is
<br />e
<br />very conservative, and that this sum is clear of all bonded indebtedness and other encumbrances.

<br />thi+ e-� ,n ANNEXATION CHARGES
<br />Bri
<br />In compliance with the Council's request for a recommendation on a possible annexation
<br />Cow charge, we have studied the methods used by various cities as outlined in the City Manager's
<br />Memorandum of July 13, 1955• In addition, visits were made to the Cities of Hayward and
<br />que, Sunnyvale f or a discussion of the basis for charges imposed by those cities. )f
<br />raii
<br />After a review of the various methods of arriving at a charge for annexation to the city
<br />it was felt that study of two approaches merited further consideration. The first to be based
<br />bi;
<br />on cost of providing water storage and supply in the upper areas, sewer outfalls, additional a
<br />treatment plant capacity and enlargement of drainage facilities for areas proposed for
<br />ses
<br />annexation; and the second to be based on a share of the costs of the capital improvements of
<br />the city excluding water, sewer and drainage lines but including city buildings, equipment,
<br />Mayor H9
<br />parks, etc.
<br />Col
<br />Consultation was had with Mr. Adamson relative to costs of providing water, sewer and )y
<br />drainage facilities to the western area report of November, 1954. While it is recognized that
<br />the
<br />the figures are not precise nor comprehensive because of the possibility of considerable
<br />variation in approach, they do serve as one approach to the problem. All assumptions for
<br />Dfay
<br />water, sewer and drainage are based on a potential of 5100 lots in an area of approximately 2200
<br />acres.
<br />CLAIMS #+ .
<br />onded
<br />estimated costs for each of the three services (in addition to facilities normally
<br />'A1The
<br />by,
<br />required of the subdivider) for the western area are as follows:
<br />Council
<br />1. Water: Cost per residence unit . . . . . . . . . . $ 78.00
<br />2. Sewers: Cost per residence unit . . . . . . . . . ..$ 34.00
<br />I
<br />ad`
<br />Cost for treatment - capacity per residence unit . . $$ 34.00
<br />3• Drainage: Cost per residence unit . . . . . . . . . $$ 50.00
<br />Total per residence unit . . . $$202.00
<br />Using the added cost of furnishing water, sewer and drainage facilities as a basis for
<br />arriving at an annexation charge, we arrive at a round figure of $200.00 per residence unit.
<br />The second approach, based on arriving at a fair share per family unit, of the capital
<br />improvements of the city, excluding sewer, water and drainage facilities, was calculated'on the
<br />present day estimated value of all such capital improvements - They are as follows:
<br />All equipment, including automotive and mobile equipment, radios and transmitters, road
<br />DEVOTIO, equipment, fixtures and furniture, v$ 2,1293409
<br />ON ROLL All land, including parks, city hall site, fire station sites,
<br />i corporation yard site, sewer plant and reservoir site, etc. $ 1070,591
<br />Wil Total value of city property $ 3,500,000 ,
<br />All In order to arrive at the fair share of capital improvements for newly annexed areas, we ,'
<br />figure as follows:
<br />Wail figure
<br />5100 building site potential X $3,500,000
<br />S.; 14000 existing building sites 5100 ,ng
<br />Ca or, in round figures - $$245.00 per building site or residence unit.
<br />Ho A simpler and perhaps less comlicated method of arriving at a share of the capital
<br />improvements would be as follows:
<br />The min _lman
<br />2200 acres potential % X3,500.00
<br />Ro 5180 acres in city 2200
<br />PUBLIC or, $$675.00 per acre in round figures - or using a figures of 4 building sites per acre, a IRK
<br />(5 charge of $$168.00 per lot.
<br />Annexation charges, based on a share of the ecisting capital improvements of the city,
<br />su seems to be a precise and equitable approach to the problem and can be readily justified on the
<br />basis of newly annexed areas buying a share of the stock of a going corporation.
