CITY OF BUCKEYE
City Council Regular Meeting
Council ACTION REPORT

ACTION / MOTION: (This language identifies the formal motion to be made by the Council)

Council to take action on Resolution No. 12-18 declaring its intention to form a Parkway Maintenance Improvement District within the corporate limits of the City of Buckeye; designating such District as “City of Buckeye Parkway Maintenance Improvement District No. 2018-MID-001”; providing for operation, maintenance and repair of streets, parkings and parkways, including landscaping of public streets adjacent  to and around the proposed district; ordering that a copy of this Resolution be recorded with the Maricopa County Recorder; and declaring an emergency.

RELEVANT GOALS:
GOAL 4: Adequate, Well-Maintained and Well-Planned Public Infrastructure

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: 
Both SLIDs and MIDs provide for the benefit of ensuring that there is a balance of revenue and expenditures to provide for the quality of life for residents/owners of a particular development without an undue burden upon the existing community. Parkway Maintenance Improvement Districts (MIDs) are responsible for maintaining parkways and parking on streets within the District.

BENEFITS:
By having the costs of parkways and parking assessed against the land within the development and not borne by the City, MIDs provide assurance for the City that should a development’s owners become unable to maintain the rights-of-ways that they are responsible for, that the City, when assuming these responsibilities, will have the revenues in place to defer the cost.

FUTURE ACTION: Council and staff; does this need to be communicated internally/externally?
A Resolution Ordering the Work will be considered immediately upon approval of this Resolution.
