Arden Arcade, California Arden Arcade is a census-designated place (CDP) in Sacramento County, California, United States. The population was 96,025 at the 2000 census. However, the population is now estimated at 83,000 due to a change in borders after the census. It is east of the city of Sacramento and west of the community of Carmichael.Arden Arcade is a principal locality of the Sacramento–Arden-Arcade–Roseville Metropolitan Statistical Area. History The history of this area is documented in the 'Sacramento ALC Historical Study 82', Ranch Del Paso, Office of History, Sacramento Air Logistics Center, McClellan Air Force Base, California, March 1983, by Raymond Oliver.... Originally part of a Mexican Land Grant deeded to Sutter. The Rancho Del Paso Grant was negotiated from the Mexican governor by John Sutter August 10, 1843. Then Sutter deeded the Rancho Del Paso to Eliab & Hiram Grimes and John Sinclair. Samuel Norris was the next owner of Rancho Del Paso then James Haggin. The Rancho Del Paso was purchased from Mr. Haggin's corporation, 'The Rancho del Paso Land Company' in 1910 by the Sacramento Valley Colonization Company for $1.5 millon. Subdividing started in earnest in 1910..... Under owner James Ben Ali Haggin the Rancho was famous for its horse breeding, one of the horses breed on the Rancho won the Ben Ali Stakes, AKA: The Kentucky Derby. The 'arcade' was the old name of a large meadow of oak trees once located on the Arcade Creek northwest of the present 'Marconi Curve' on the Capital City Freeway 80. The natural occurring oak trees near the horse loading area were used to tie up hundreds of horses going to Kentucky by rail. Some trains had more than a thousand horses loaded at one time from Rancho Del Paso. The oak trees were lined up like an architectural arcade (a number of arches supporting a wall). Hence the name of the area, 'Arcade'. The Arcade Meadow of Oak Trees was used as a staging area to load by rail transport all horses out to Kentucky and beyond from about 1880 to 1905. There were 24 barns with 64 stalls each and out buildings to support the manpower needed for the horse racing business. The oldest surviving buildings in the area are the Arden Middle School, built in 1914, and the Del Paso Country Club, from 1919, named for the original Rancho on which it is built. The houses in the area were first built in the 1920s and 1930s as the city grew over the river, but were built in earnest later.

Neighborhoods with ritzy homes include Wilhaggin, Sierra Oaks, Sierra Oaks Vista, Arden Park, Arden Oaks, and some of the areas surrounding the Del Paso Country Club.The closest thing that California has had to a governor's mansion since 1967 was located in Arden-Arcade from 1984 until 2004. Governors George Deukmejian, Pete Wilson, and Gray Davis all occupied a home on Lake Wilhaggin Drive in the Wilhaggin area. The house was sold in 2004 after Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger decided not to live in the home and instead occupy the penthouse at the Hyatt in Downtown Sacramento when he did not commute back to Brentwood which he did most nights. Incorporation plans On November 2, 2010, area residents voted on Measure D.The Measure was defeated by a margin of 76% to 24%. If approved, the area bounded by Auburn Boulevard on the north, the American River Drive, Ethan Way on the west and Mission Avenue/Jacob Lane on the east would have become the City of Arden Arcade.The city would have been governed by a council-manager form of government. Twenty-two candidates ran for the seven-member city council. If Measure D passed, seven would have become city council members and the top vote-getter would have become mayor. A city manager would have beeen hired by the council to implement goals, policies and ordinances approved by the city council. The defeat of Measure D rendered the results of the election a moot point.According to the fiscal analysis completed under the auspices of the Sacramento Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCo), the city as proposed “may be fiscally feasible” (p.7). LAFCo assesses the feasibility of a new city according to three standards: it is likely to feasible; it is not likely; or it may be feasible. The financials for the proposed new city were not strong enough to warrant finding the proposed new city likely to be feasible.The fiscal analysis includes “revenue neutrality payments” that the city must pay Sacramento County to be in compliance with California Code section 56815. City taxpayers would be required to reimburse Sacramento County over $6 million a year, and $219 million over a 35 year period for loss of sales tax revenue.According to the LAFCo analysis, the new local government would have cost $37 million each year by year 10 of the analysis (Table E.3). At that point, the city would have been expected to spend $32,086,600 on general fund expenses for the city manager’s office, attorney services, city clerk’s office, the development office, animal control, etc. Road maintenance expenses are expected to cost 4,948,000 by year 10. The analysis does not include an assessment of capital requirements such as the cost of financing and building a city hall. According to the salary survey released in September by the League of California Cities, salaries for city managers in the region range from $181,135 (Woodland) to 353,000 (Roseville), with most earning compensation over $200,000.Proponents claimed that the new city would have improved services and created community pride in the City of Arden Arcade without any new taxes. Opponents believed that revenue assumptions were risky and, if wrong, could lead to higher taxes.Revenues would have largely come from property taxes and sales taxes. LAFCo’s projections of property taxes are based on this assumption about area property values: “The fiscal model assumes a nominal annual property appreciation rate of 5.2% excluding the additional value from new development” (p. 45). Property sales and retail sales are closely tied to the unemployment rate, and Sacramento ranks 326 out of 372 cities according to the most recent information available from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. No Plans To Annex Arden Arcade As of August 24, 2010, the City of Sacramento posted on their website that they have No Plans to Annex Arden Arcade (see http://www.cityofsacramento.org/dsd/planning/new-growth/sphere-of-influence/documents/ArdenArcade_Profile.pdf). Only the Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCo) has the regulatory authority under state law to approve or disapprove of the annexation of territory by a city (Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Act of 2000, California Government Code Section 56000). LAFCo requires cities to keep up their general plan and look at overlapping jurisdictions. In that context, the City of Sacramento has collected information about Arden Arcade but has not taken any steps toward incorporation, the first of which would be identifying Arden Arcade as within its 'Sphere of Influence.'Incorporation proponents have repeatedly claimed that the city could take over the area in as little as six months, with no opportunity for residents to vote. The City of Sacramento's process includes a dozen steps that would conservatively take three to five years to go through the lengthy and expensive process required. The most recent piece of land to be annexed was several hundred acres of fallow agricultural land, Greenbriar. The process took four years for this small, non-controversial annexation at the request of the developer after four rounds of Environmental Impact Reviews, municipal service reviews, organization plans, finance plan, taxation agreements and more.As the City describes on its website, residents of an area may request annexation, or the City may investigate it. It goes on: 'With inhabited areas, annexation must also be supported by a majority of voters within the area proposed for annexation.'If the City undertook the lengthy road toward annexation and ultimately voted to approve, the City would then have to file an application with the Local Agency Formation Commission. The many factors that LAFCo considers when reviewing applications are listed in detail on its website as are its powers and authority. It includes the opportunity for public testimony.The City of Sacramento's last annexation of an inhabited area, College Greens, was in the late 1950s. While it discussed interest in Arden Arcade in the 1960s, the City of Sacramento did not initiate formal steps toward incorporation.In its analysis of the area as part of its general plan update, City staff noted that Arden Arcade is 'mostly built out' (see Part III of the General Plan, Community Plan and Special Study Areas, Arden Arcade Community Plan, p. 3-AA-5 at http://www.sacgp.org/). The City has also noted that the area has significant infrastructure needs and the likelihood of community opposition to incorporation.
