ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1985-1, SYCAMORE VALLEY
The City Council of the City of Danville resolves:
This Council intends to order the following improvement
under the authority of the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913:
The improvement of Camino Tassajara Parkway from Diablo
Road to the eastern city limit of Danville; Sycamore
Valley Road from Highway 1-680 to Camino Tassajara and
Diablo Road at Camino Tassajara by the installation of
grading, paving, curbs and gutters, hydrants, storm
drains, sanitary sewer mains, median landscaping,

and traffic signalization.
The acquisition and improvement of a 20-acre community
park in the vicinity of Camino Tassajara and Sycamore
Valley Road; the improvement of the freeway interchange at
Sycamore Valley Road and Highway 1-680, including overpass
widening, realignment of existing ramps and improvements
to the approaches; and funding of a prorata share of the
cost of acquiring a site and constructing and equipping a
fire' station to the specifications of the San Ramon Valley
Fire Protection District, together with all appurtenances
and the acquisition of all necessary interests in real
property.
This Council finds that the land specially benefited by
the improvement is shown within the boundaries of the map entitled,
"Proposed Boundaries, Assessment District No. 1985-1, Sycamore
Valley, City of Danville, Contra Costa County, California". This
map has been approved by the City Council and is now on file with
the City Clerk. The land within the exterior boundaries shown on
the map shall be designated Assessment District No. 1985-1, Sycamore
Valley, City of Danville, Contra Costa County, California.
This Council intends to levy a special assessment upon the
land within the described district in accordance with the special
benefit to be received by each parcel of land, respectively, from
the improvement. There shall be omitted from special assessment all~
public streets, alleys and places and all land belonging to the
United States, the State of California, the County of Contra Costa
and this City now in use in the performance of a public function.
Where any disparity occurs in level or size betweenthe
improvement and private property, this Council determines that it is
in the public interest and more economical to eliminate the
disparity by doing work on the private property instead of adjusting
the work on public property. Accordingly, work may be done on
private property for this purpose with the written consent of the
landowner.
This Council intends to enter into agreements with Central
Sanitary District, East Bay Municipal Utility District and the State
of California Department of Transportation under the provisions of
Section 10110 of the Streets and Highways Code, inasmuch as certain
facilities included in the improvement are to be under their
ownership, management and control.
Serial bonds representing unpaid assessments, and bearing
interest at a rate not to exceed twelve percent (12%) per annum,
will be issued in the manner provided by the Improvement Bond Act of
1915 (Division 10, Streets and Highways Code), and the last
installment of the bonds shall mature not to exceed nineteen (19)
years from the second day of September next succeeding twelve (12)
months from their date.
Th~ proo~du=e for the ¢olleckion o~ asmesmmen~ and
advance retirement of bonds under the Improvement Bond Act of 1915
shall be as provided in Part 11.1, Division 10, of the Streets and
Highways Code of the State of California.
This Council finds that the Special Assessment
Investigation, Limitation and Majority Protest Act of 1931
(commencing with Section 2800, Streets and Highways Code) does not
apply to these proceedings.
This Council appoints BISSELL & KARN, INC., as Engineer of
Work for this project, and directs the preparation of the report
required by Section 10204 of the Streets and Highways Code.
In the opinion of this Council, the public interest will
not be served by allowing owners of assessable lands to enter into a
contract for the work of improvement as otherwise permitted in
Section 20485 of the Public Contract Code.
The amount of any surplus remaining in the improvement
fund after completion of the improvement and payment of all claims
shall be transferred to the general fund if the surplus does not
exceed the lesser of one thousand dollars ($1000) or five percent
(5%) of the total amount expended from the fund. Otherwise the
entire surplus shall be applied as a credit on the assessment as
provided in Section 10427.1 of the Streets and Highways Code.
