Background
During the 1982 budget hearings, staff indicated to Councll that
Broadway between Eleventh Street and Seventeenth Street would be
one
of
the
streets resurfaced durlng the 1982-83 Street
Resurfacing Program.
At the same time, Council approved the
concept of assess1ng commerclal property owners one-half the cost
of street resurfacing. It is now necessary to form an assessment
district for the resurfacing of Broadway.

Councll Meeting: April 12, 1983
Santa Monica, California
Staff originally requested that the resurfac1ng proJect be on
Broadway from Eleventh to Cloverfield. However, after closing the
public hearlng held March 8, 1983, the Clty Councll contlnued the
ltem to April 12 and requested staff to review the effect the
Welton Beckett and Greenwood developments would have on the newly
resurfaced street.
After researchlng the issue, staff believes
that whlle the construction w1l1 have m1nlmal lmpact on Broadway,
lt would be best to halt the resurfacing at Seventeenth Street.
StopPlng at Seventeenth Street wlll ensure that no large vehlcles
wlll travel over the newly resurfaced street as the concrete plant
and freeway entrance are at 20th Street and there lS no reason for
the trucks to travel past Seventeenth Street.
Broadway from
Seventeenth Street to Cloverfield can be resurfaced 1n FY 1983-84
after the developments are substant1ally completed.
Concrete gutters should be constructed as a part of the Broadway
resurfaclng proJect.
The asphalt paving at the gutter line is
severly eroded and lS a contlnuous malntenance problem on these
streets. Slnce 1965, the Clty has constructed concrete gutters on
most streets as a part of the resurfacing program. The most
recent streets where thlS was done are Broadway and Colorado from
Ocean to Llncoln, and Maln Street from Pica to Holllster.
The
Improvement
Act of 1911 provldes methods whereby all
improvements lncludlng resurfaclng. street lights. street trees,
curbs, sldewalks and gutters may be assessed to abutting property
owners.
Consistent wlth past POllCY for assessing commercial
properties, this assessment wlll be a cash assessment and no bonds

w1l1 be issued and the commerclal property owner will be assessed
the full cost for the constructlon of the gutters or approximately
at $7 per llneal foot based on past contracts.
Staff belleves that the property owner should be assessed one-half
the cost of the street resurfaclng. It lS estimated that the
assessment will be $5.75 per llneal foot for street resurfaclng.
ThlS charge wlll be approximately 30-50% of the total cost of the
resurfaclng dependlng on the wldth of the street. The proposed
assessment TS designed so that each commerical property owner
would pay the same unlt assessment cost regardless of the width of
the street on Wh1Ch the1r property fronts.
For a commerc1al property owner with a 50 foot lot, the total
estlmated assessment would be $287.50 for resurfacing and $350 for
gutters.
ReS1dential propertles located with1n the d1strict wl1l
not
be
assessed for elther gutter construction or street
resurfacing.
F1nanCTal Analysls
Th1S proJect lS a part of the 1982-83 Street Resurfaclng ProJect
and funds 1n the amount of $250,000 have been allocated for this
purpose 1n Account No. 01-500-421-000-901.
The assessments for
gutter
lnstallat10n
and

resurfac1ng

ralse
approximately $38,250 ln revenues.
