   6. In accordance with Article XIIID of the California Constitution and based on the facts and conclusions contained in the attached Engineer’s Report, attached to the Council file, the Engineer has separated the general from special benefits and as such, the Engineer's Report identified general benefits in the amount of 1.0 percent to be separated from the Venice Beach BID special benefits conferred on parcels within the proposed BID and that the yearly general benefits cost must be paid from funds other than the assessments collected for the Venice Beach BID and that the general benefit cost for first year of operation is $18,711.00.
