Attachment 3 <br /> 9.A. - Page 67 <br /> Some Averajie costs: <br /> Average cost of services for similar special benefit districts to fund the sidewalk operations component are a low of$5.00 <br /> per linear foot and a high of$18.00 per linear foot. <br /> Possible Implementation Scenario: 44,531 linear feet x $9.50 per linear foot = $ 423,043 in annual Sidewalk <br /> Operations funds (figuring a ratio of 80% for labor and 20%for supplies), this would equal around 55- 69 person hours <br /> per day, or an average of around 7 to 8 full time people providing services 7 days per week. Probably 5 - 6 employees <br /> during the day and 2 for the evening shifts,which includes on site supervision. These employees could provide cleaning <br /> services, steam cleaning services, provide directions to visitors, stock dog bag stations, empty special benefit trash <br /> receptacles, paint out graffiti, fund beautification programs including public space management and maintenance, work <br /> with Redwood City Police Department for vagrancy or minor criminal complaints. <br /> DISTRICT IDENTITY SERVICES: 20% <br /> This category of special benefit services provides assessed properties with the following services that enhance the positive <br /> identity and brand for businesses on assessed parcels within the CBID. The function of these services is to create greater <br /> demand for property, office space, business sales and rentals and residential tenancies throughout the CBID. These <br /> services are over and above current City services and one set of services listed below may be prioritized one year and <br /> another set of services may be prioritized the following year. That determination of prioritization of District Identity <br /> special benefit services will be determined by the CBID management corporation Board of Directors. <br /> The costs for District Identity are apportioned equally to the building square footage assessments of all parcel owners, <br /> regardless of Benefit Zone, since all individual parcels(with the exceptions noted in the next paragraph)are presumed to <br /> benefit equally from the District Identity implementation of all programs in the new CBID. <br /> It is noted that District identity services are designed primarily for the benefit of commercial for-profit types of land uses <br /> and ownerships and not for government and tax exempt type land uses and ownerships.These latter categories of land use <br /> and ownership types do not specially benefit from increased business sales or business transactions and enhancement of <br /> private parcels is the primary aim of this program element and thus these tax exempt parcels will not be assessed for their <br /> respective building square footage to pay for these services. This program element will be funded 100% by building <br /> square footage assessments in both benefit zones, except for government and tax exempt owned and occupied parcels. <br /> The percentage of building square footage that is dedicated to private or internal tenant parking needs may be deducted <br /> from the gross building square footage. Only parking structures that are open to the public and charge fees to the general <br /> public on a regular basis will have their building square footage assessed as any other commercial building. Apartment <br /> buildings within the boundaries of the CBID,regardless of Benefit Zone,will be assessed as commercial buildings since <br /> there is a landlord/tenant relationship.Such sidewalk operations and beautification special benefit services include: <br />
