Sonoma and this City now in use in the performance of a public function. Where any disparity occurs ir-' level or size between the improvement and private property, this Council determines that it is in the public interest and more economical to eliminate the disparity by doing work on the private property instead of adjusting the work on public property. Accordingly, work. may be done on private property for this purpose with the written consent of the landowner. This Council intends to enter into an agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company (.PG.&E) under the provisions of Section 10110 of the Streets and Highways Code, inasmuch as certain facilities included in the improvement are to be under its ownership, management and control. This Council intends, pursuant to subparagraph (f) of Section 10204 of the California Streets and Highways Code, to provide for an annual assessment upon each of the parcels of land in the proposed assessment district to pay various costs and expenses incurred from time to time by the City and not otherwise reimbursed to the City which result from the administration and collection. of assessment installments or from the administration or registration of the improvement bonds a_nd the various funds and accounts pertaining thereto.

The City will not obligate itself to advance available funds from the City treasury to cure any deficiency which may occur in the bond redemption fund.

Heindel as Engineer of Work and MacKay & Somps as Design Engineer for this project, and directs the preparation of the report required by Section 10204 of the Streets and Highways Code. In the opinion of this Co.uneil, the public interest will not be served by allowing owners of assessable lands to enter into a contract for the work of improvement as otherwise permitted in Section 20485 of the Public Contract Code...
