Sec. 33-1. - Authority.

This chapter is adopted pursuant to the "Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989," Sections 36500 et seq. of the California Streets and Highways Code, and Resolution Nos. 04-0850 and 04-0984, adopted by the board of supervisors on September 14, 2004, and October 12, 2004. Such resolutions were published and mailed as provided by law, and meetings and hearings thereon were held by the board at public meetings and hearings on October 12, 2004, and November 2, 2004, at which time all persons desiring to be heard, and all objections or protests made or filed, were fully heard and considered. The board duly

concluded the hearing on November 2, 2004, and determined that protests objecting to the formation of the area had not been received from the owners of lodging businesses in the proposed area which would pay fifty percent (50%) or more of the assessments proposed to be levied. The board of supervisors finds that the assessments levied on owners of lodging businesses pursuant to this chapter are based upon the estimated benefit to the owners of assessed lodging businesses within the area, and that all owners of lodging businesses in the area against whom assessments are proposed to be levied will be benefited by the expenditure of funds raised by the assessments.
