<br />CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
<br />Special Assessments
<br />Assessment District 78-2
<br />City Attorney Edwards referred to his memorandum dated August 11, 1982, and a proposed
<br />resolution with regard to foreclosure action on Assessment District No. 78-2 in the
<br />Cooley Ranch and appointing attorneys from Best, Best & Krieger to institute such
<br />proceedings.
<br />Mr. Bob Glass, representing the mobile home park on the Cooley Ranch requested that
<br />the City Council hold off on any foreclosure action for at least thirty days. Mr.
<br />Glass mentioned a problem regarding erroneous tax bills for the fiscal year stating
<br />they have to work these matters out with the County. Mr. Glass also spoke to the
<br />City Council with regard to the sewer problem at the mobile home park, and the long-
<br />awaited hookups.
<br />Mr. Edwards spoke about the sewer moratorium stating he could certainly understand
<br />the inconvenience this has caused, however, Staff is working diligently to get this
<br />matter resolved and the sewer plant in full operation.
<br />Mr. Edwards then discussed the tax increments on the three assessment districts on
<br />the Cooley Ranch, stating it is the third assessment district, 78-2, that the City
<br />is now involved with. Mr. Edwards continued that the bond holders are entitled to
<br />a very substantial payment by July 1 of next year, and the City Treasurer has ad-
<br />vised that unless the City converts the indebtedness of the mobile home park into
<br />money, the fund will be in default as of that date.
<br />Mr. Edwards stated the reason for his recommendation to the City Council, authorizing
<br />the action to proceed, was unless the City is authorized to proceed, when July 1,
<br />1983 comes around, the City Treasurer will not have the money and an assessment dis-
<br />trict, in the name of the City of Colton, will be in default which is something that
<br />should be avoided because it is detrimental to the City, even though it is not direct-
<br />ly the credit of the City that is involved.
<br />Mr. Edwards concluded after discussing this matter for some time with Mr. Glass and
<br />other Staff members, it is Staff's recommendation to proceed.
<br />Moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Rios, to approve Resolution No.
<br />4243. Unanimous vote.
<br />AUG 1 7 1982
