DISCUSSION
The Bixby Knolls Business Improvement Association promotes and markets the Bixby Knolls commercial area, using funds generated through the assessment of area businesses located in the Bixby Knolls Parking and Business Improvement Area (BKPBIA). State law governing Parking and Business Improvement Areas require that an annual assessment report be submitted to the City Council by the Advisory Commission designated for the Assessment District. At its August 25, 2010 meeting, the BKPBIA Advisory Board voted to adopt the Fiscal Year 2011 BKPBIA Assessment Report (attached).
The Assessment Report describes the boundaries, proposed activities and budgetary information, as well as the method and basis for continuation of the assessment. The report proposes no change in the method of levying the assessment and no significant changes to proposed activities.
The recommended Resolution of Intention grants approval of the assessment report, declares the intention of the City Council to levy the assessment for proposed activities and sets the date of a public hearing for October 12, 2010.
This letter was reviewed by Chief Assistant City Attorney Heather Mahood on August 17, 2010, City Treasurer David Nakamoto and Budget Management Officer Victoria Bell on August 18, 2010.

City Council action is requested following public hearing on October 12, 2010 to allow purchase order and contract modifications to be completed so that Fiscal Year 2011 (FY 11) assessment transfers may be made as required by the Agreement for Funding with the BKBIA.
