Staff Report for a Resolution of the City Council of the City of San Leandro Declaring the City Council's Intention to Establish the West San Leandro Shuttle Business Improvement District (BID) and Setting a Public Hearing Relating Thereto for December 15, 2014
Staffreport
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution declaring the City's intention to re-establish the West San Leandro Shuttle Business Improvement District (BID) and to set a Public Meeting for Monday, December 1, 2015 and a Public Hearing for Monday, December 15, 2014.
This action supersedes Resolution No. 2014-105 and revises the timeline for BID adoption, adding an additional public meeting on December 1, 2014 to ensure compliance with the California Government Code and to offer an additional opportunity for public input. The need to revise the timeline arose due to changed understanding, based on guidance from the City Attorney's Office, of the format and noticing requirements for the Public Meeting required prior to BID adoption under the California Government Code.
The upcoming steps in the BID process will be as follows:
* October 20, 2014: City Council adoption of the Resolution of Intention and establishment of the Public Hearing date;
* December 1, 2014: Public meeting on the BID authorization process held as part of the regularly scheduled City Council meeting; and first reading of the ordinance to re-authorize the BID (pass to print);
* December 15, 2014: Public hearing and final adoption of the BID ordinance
* January 14, 2015: Effective date of the BID ordinance (30 days after its adoption).
Protest ballots were mailed to all businesses within the BID on September 17, 2014. Any businesses wishing to protest the re-establishment of the BID will have until the date of the public hearing to do so. An updated notice of the public meeting and public hearing will be mailed to all businesses on October 21, 2014.
