PLAN FOR PROVISION OF URBAN SERVICES:
BUSH STREET NORTH REORGANIZATION
FEBRUARY 24, 1987
Pursuant to Section 56653 of the State of California Government Code, a plan
for the provision of urban services to a newly annexed area must accompany an
application for annexation. This plan is prepared in conjunction with the
annexation application to the Mendocino County Local Agency Formation
Commission for the acreage encompassed in the Bush Street North Reorganization
to the City of Ukiah.
The area to be annexed is adjacent on the north of the City of Ukiah and
includes a portion of Bush Street. Existing land use in the area is vacant.
The total area to be annexed is approximately 0.41 acres, 5600 square feet of
which is public right-of-way.
Existing services to the area are provided by the County of Mendocino in the
General government functions of Administration, Planning, Building Inspection,
Public Health, Public Works and Sheriff. Electricity is provided by Pacific
Gas & Electric Company; sewerage services by Ukiah Valley Sanitation District;
and water by Millview County Water District. Fire prevention and protection
is provided through the Ukiah Valley Fire Protection District (a special
district on contract with the City of Ukiah). Telephone, gas and cable
television are currently supplied and would continue to be provided by Pacific
Bell, P.G.&.E. and Group W respectively. Solid waste disposal is on an
individual property owner basis.
The proposal is annexation to the City of Ukiah, a full service municipality.
In addition to general administrative activities, the City of Ukiah provides
police and fire services, its own water production and distribution system,
its own electric generation and distribution system, a sewage treatment plant
in conjunction with the Sanitation District and Public Works services
including street maintenance and capital improvements. Solid waste disposal
is through City franchise with a private hauling company.
In general, the proposed services to be provided to the annexation area would
be those currently existing in the City of Ukiah which are enumerated in
detail below. The level and range of these services would be the same as
currently provided within City boundaries. Increased demand would not cause a
decrease in the levels of service to either existing City residents or the new
area. The services can feasibly be extended to the affected territory
immediately, as presently the City is adjacent to the property and some City
services are involved with backup assistance agreements (police and fire).
No specific improvements to structures, roads, sewer or electric facilities
are proposed without specific development taking place. Other services to be
provided would be financed through the existing City revenue structure which
includes property taxation, and reimbursement from the State government under
various in-lieu and per capita subvention programs. User fees for electric,
water, sewer, and solid waste will be charged for these respective services.

FINANCING
As noted previously, other than user fees for water, electricity, sewerage and

per capita subventions from the State, and enterprise fund income.
Presented here are approximate revenues and expenses for the annexation. These
calculations reflect the existing vacant nature of the property and
approximately 80 feet of street frontage.
ESTIMATED ANNUAL REVENUES
PROPERTY TAX
Total property tax pa~d by City: $62.46
City 12.25% share - $7.65
Net savings to City = $54.81
Estimated Annual Savings
$54.81
STREET MAINTENANCE
Per mile cost is $2,000
$2,000 x 0.015 = $30
ESTIMATED ANNUAL EXPENSES
$30
Total Estimated Annual Costs ....... $30
ONE TIME COSTS
State Board of Equalization filing fees ........... 160
Total $160
ANALYSIS: Annual savings exceed costs. One time costs exceed net revenue,
but deficit would be recovered within eight years.
SUMMARY: As a full service municipality, the City of Ukiah will be providing
all basic governmental functions and urban services for this area. The level
of service charges and general governmental revenues would be as currently
exist. The availability of services is immediate.
