Background On June 10, 2016, a Notice of Intent to circulate a petition, regarding the AVSP, was served on the City Clerk’s Department by proponent Dana Mark Coon. On June 27, 2016, a Ballot Title and Summary were provided to the proponent. The proponent followed all noticing and publishing requirements by July 1, 2016, and provided proof to the City Clerk. On October 11, 2016, the proponent delivered eight boxes containing 192 petitions to the City Clerks Department. After a thorough review it was deemed accepted on October 12, 2016, and delivered to the Riverside County Registrar of Voters for signature verification. Of the 5,088 signatures checked, 4,078 were deemed valid and 1,010 were deemed invalid. On December 13, 2016, the Council ordered a report pursuant to Elections Code Section 9212 to assess the fiscal impact of the proposed initiative and other potential impacts. The report was presented to the Council on January 12, 2017, and made available in the City Clerk’s office for inspection by any person requesting to do so. Discussion Attached as Exhibit A is the Elections Code 9212 Report on the Alberhill Villages Initiative. The Report is organized in 3 Sections: Section 1 - Introduction /Overview Section 2 describes the proposed Initiative and its relationship to the Adopted Aberhill Villages Specific Plan, including a comparison summary of key provisions. This section also describes the consistency of the Initiative with the City’s existing, approved documents: 1) General Plan; 2) the Adopted Alberhill Villages Specific Plan, and 3) the Zoning Ordinance and the future entitlement process. Section 3 is the Fiscal Impact Analysis evaluating the fiscal impacts of the Alberhill Villages Initiative and comparison to the Adopted Alberhill Villages Specific Plan. It is attached as Exhibit A. AVSP Initiative Page 2 of 2 Because the adopted Alberhill Villages Specific Plan already governs the permitted land uses and development of the +/- 1375 acre, Pacific Clay Mining site, the report provides a comparison of the key provisions and fiscal impacts of the adopted Alberhill Villages Specific Plan compared to the proposed Alberhill Villages Initiative. Council is faced with two options at this time and will be addressed in Item No. 2 on the agenda. Fiscal Impact The fiscal impacts of the Alberhill Villages Initiative are evaluated in the attached report which estimates a deficit between $186,365,946 and $242,950,579 in 20 years.
