This chapter is adopted pursuant to the "Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1979," being Section 36500 et seq. of the California Streets and Highways Code, and Resolution of Intention No. 86-329, adopted by the city council on May 13, 1986, and titled, "A resolution of the city council of the city of Sacramento, California, declaring its intention to establish a business improvement area in the downtown business area, to provide for levying of charges on specified businesses conducted within such area, classifying various businesses for such purposes, describing the boundaries of the proposed area, the authorized uses to which the proposed revenues shall be put, the rate of such charges, fixing the date, time and place of a hearing to be held by the city council to consider the establishment of such an area, and directing the giving of notice of such hearing." Such resolution was published and mailed as provided by law, and hearings thereon were held by the city council at its regular meeting on May 27, 1986, at which time all persons desiring to be heard, and all objections made or filed, were fully heard. The city council duly concluded the hearing on May 27, 1986, and determined that protests objecting to the formation of the area have not been made by businesses within the area which will pay a majority of the charges to be imposed and that such protests are overruled and denied. The city council finds that the businesses lying within the business and improvement area, in the opinion of the city council, will be benefitted by the expenditure of the funds raised by the charges proposed to be levied.
