rte• <br />MEMORANDUM <br />Office of the Mayor and Council <br />Date: September 24, 1996 <br />To: Honorable. Mayor and Councilmembers (� <br />From: Councilmember Deirdre H. Bennett U w �' <br />Subject: San Timoteo Assessments Paid By NPDES Stormwater Assessments <br />City Council Meeting of October 1, 1996 <br />At a recent Council Meeting, by majority vote, the Council elected not to use <br />Redevelopment Agency funds to pay for the San Timoteo Assessment improvements. <br />My concern is that this assessment is being imposed on the residents at a time when <br />families can least afford it. Additionally, I believe this assessment will benefit new <br />(^ development far more than it will benefit the residents. On previous occasions, many <br />issues that benefit our communities have not prevailed due to the politics of our City. <br />My desire is to avoid the politicization of this issue. Our residents and our community <br />are at stake in this matter. Simply stated, I request for the Council to make a decision that <br />will be for the benefit of our residents. <br />RECOMMENDATION: I respectfully request for the Council's approval and <br />concurrence to 1) find an alternative source of funding for the San Timoteo Assessment <br />Project; and 2) to have the NPDES Storm Water Assessments pay for the San Timoteo <br />Assessments which have been imposed upon our residents. <br />p49enda /tem `/ o. 17 <br />
