property owners whose residence was in Yorba Linda.
The amended engineers report was reviewed by the Assessment
Engineer, Mr. Roy Stephenson. Mr. Stephenson explained that the
methodology used to develop the 1987-88 Standby Assessment was
based on water duty criteria. The water duty on Rural and Open
Space land is 20% of the Commercial/Industrial rate which is
reflected in the amended assessment. Mr. Stephenson also reported
that when land is officially removed from development by the
City of Yorba Linda, it is removed from the assessment spread.
Mr. Stephenson then reported that 350 acres of open space land
has previously been declared undevelopable by the City and it
should be removed from this years assessment. Therefore, Mr.
Stephenson presented further amendments to pages 7 and 8 of the
report which reflected the removal of 350 acres of undevelopable
open space land and prorata adjustments in assessment rates to
other land.
Discussion toilowed on other corrections in the engineers report.
Mr. Stephenson concluded that a final report which incorporates
all comments and amendments will be submitted to the District as
soon as possible.
