RECOMMENDED ACTION:
That a public hearing be held to consider a staff report, receive public comment, and approve
Resolution No. 2014-162 confirming the diagram and assessment and providing for the
levy of the annual assessment for Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On November 18, 2003, the City Council formed Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2
(District No. 2). District No. 2 was formed for new development in the city, to pay for the costs of
street lights, street trees and medians within those areas. Street lights, street trees and medians
in the previously developed parts ofthe city are paid from assessments within Street Lighting and
Landscaping District No. 1 (District No. 1).
Each development within District No. 2 is considered a separate zone, with their own assessment
based on the costs for that particular area ofthe city. There are currently 13 zones in District No.
2, including Calavera Hills II, Kelly Ranch, the Oaks South, Thompson/Tabata, Palomar
Forum/Carlsbad Raceway, Bressi Ranch, La Costa Greens, La Costa Ridge, the Oaks North
Industrial Park, Robertson Ranch (East Village), the Oaks North Residential, La Costa Town
Square and Fair Oaks Valley developments.
The attached Engineer's Report outlines the maintenance to be performed during FY 2014-15,
the associated maintenance costs, and the city's contribution of a general benefit for street
lighting, as detailed in the previously approved Engineer's Report. The general benefit became
a requirement with Proposition 218. Proposition 218 states that any share of benefits received
from an improvement that does not provide a special benefit to the assessed properties is
considered a general benefit provided by the improvements. The cost of the general benefit
cannot be assessed to the properties in the Assessment District. Therefore, the general benefit
is contributed by the city from the General Fund.
The notice setting the public hearing was published in the San Diego Union-Tribune at least ten
days prior to the public hearing date.
FISCAL YEAR 2014-15 ASSESSMENT DISTRICT PROCESSING:
In each ofthe 13 zones, a maximum and actual assessment rate is calculated on an annual basis.
The maximum is the maximum annual assessment rate that can be assessed on a particular

parcel. The rate is calculated by adding up all the costs of maintenance and replacements,
assuming that all of the improvements in each zone were fully maintained by the city. However,
in District No. 2, ten zones have a portion of their improvements maintained by their homeowners
association (HOA). The calculated cost of maintaining any improvement that will be borne by an
HOA has been subtracted from the maximum annual assessment in order to determine the actual
annual assessment. The maximum assessments can increase by the increase in the Consumer
Price Index (CPI) on an annual basis. The change in the San Diego County CPI from January
2013 to January 2014 was 1.7%, and is reflected in the maximum assessment rates for FY 2014-
15.
The actual annual assessment is the amount that will be charged to each property owner on his
or her annual property tax statement. If, at any point in the future, the city determines that the
HOA is not maintaining the improvements to the city's standard, the city has the ability to assume
the maintenance ofthe improvements and charge the property owner up to the maximum annual
assessment. This would be done so that the city can recover its costs of maintaining the
improvements.
In addition to costs associated with improvements being maintained by HOA's, street lighting
costs have not been fully assessed for Fiscal Year 2014-15 in every zone, since some of these
lights have either recently been energized or will not be energized until Fiscal Year 2014-15.
When street lights are initially energized, developers prepay 18 months of electricity charges.
Therefore, street lights costs are not assessed to property owners until the fiscal year after the
lights have been energized.
As shown in the table below, the actual assessment rates for a single-family residential parcel
per year range from a low of $3.90 per parcel to a high of $154.79 per parcel. These assessments
vary between developments depending on the density of each development, the amount and
types of improvements being maintained in each development, and the amount maintained by
the HOA's.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The Fiscal Year 2014-15 Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2 total assessments forthe
thirteen zones is projected to be $535,985. Interest earned on cash reserves in District No. 2 will
contribute $19,500 to the fund. The assessment rates in each zone of District No. 2 have been
set so that the maintenance and operations, as well as the replacement of improvements, will be
funded entirely through the property owners that benefit from the improvements. Of the total
projected FY 2014-15 assessments, $252,630 will be spent on maintenance operations and
$283,355 will be set aside for future replacement of improvements.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The project is categorically exempt under CEQA, pursuant to Section 15301 (c).

PARTC
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT
GENERAL
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by cities for the purpose of
providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and
servicing of street lights, traffic signals and landscaping facilities.
Streets and Highways Code Section 22573 requires that maintenance assessments be levied
according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be
apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all
assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by
each such lot or parcel from the improvements."
The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment
district if "by reason of variations In the nature, location, and extent of the Improvements, the
various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the Improvements." (Sec. 22574).
Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax."
In addition. Article XIIID and the Implementation Act requires that a parcel's assessment may
not exceed the reasonable cost for the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel.
Article XIIID and the Implementafion Act further provides that only special benefits are
assessable and the city must separate the general benefits from the special benefits. They also
require that publicly owned properties which specially benefit from the Improvements be
assessed.
SPECIAL BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Proper maintenance and operation of the streetlights, street trees and street medians provides
special benefit to adjacent properties by providing security, safety, and community character
and vitality.
Local Lighting.
Special Benefit. The operafion, maintenance and servicing of lighting along local streets In
close proximity to certain lots or parcels provides a special benefit to such lots or parcels
by providing illuminafion resulting In: 1) improved security of such lots or parcels, 2)
Improved ingress and egress from such lots or parcels by llluminafing access after
sunset, and 3) Improved nighttime visibility for the local access of emergency vehicles.
Local lighting consists of 100 watt lights.
Street lights on or associated with traffic signals located at arterlal-to-local connectors
are considered to be 100% special benefit to those developments taking direct access at
these Intersections.
General Benefit. There are no general benefits associated with local lighting.

Arterial Lighting.
Special Benefit. The operation, maintenance and servicing of arterial lighting provides a
special benefit to each and every assessable lot or parcel within the development or
vicinity which are adjacent to such lighting resulting in: 1) improved nighttime visibility for
the access of emergency vehicles, and 2) Improved safety and traffic circulation to and
from parcels. Arterial lighting consists of 200 watt lights; however, special benefit is
assigned consistent with local lighfing wattage.
General Benefit. The city recognizes that a portion of the maintenance, operation and
servicing of those Street Lighting Improvements that are a part of the city's arterial
lighting improvements provide a general benefit to the public at large, which equates to
the higher level of lighting required on arterial roads.
The general benefits associated with Arterial Lighfing are attributable to the higher level
of lighting required for an arterial roadway. That higher level of lighting provides a
measure of safety for the additional width of the street. Local and collector roadways
require only 9,500 lumen lights (typically 40 watt lights) and arterial roadways require
22,000 lumen lights (typically 100 watt lights).
The amount of general benefit is established by multiplying the number of arterial
streetlights currently in the city by the difference between the average annual electrical
costs to Illuminate a light on an arterial street and a local street. (Electrical costs are
used in this comparison, as the personnel and replacement costs for the various lumens
and wattages of lights are virtually the same.) The table below shows the calculation of
the cost estimate for general benefit for streetlights.

Final Annual Engineer's Report - FY 2014-15 Page 10
Therefore, 11.3% ofthe Street Lighting Improvements on the city's arterial roadways are
considered general benefit, and only 88.7% of these Street Lighting Improvements will
be used to esfimate the special benefit costs.
Streetlights on or associated with traffic signals located at arterial-to-arterlal connectors
are considered to be 100% general benefit.
In addition to the above, streetlights fronting upon open space areas owned by
governmental agencies and/or managed by a non-profit environmental trust and which
are considered part of the major habitat core areas and/or linkages of the city's Habitat
Management Plan shall be considered as having 100% general benefit.
Street Landscaping.
Special Benefit. Trees, landscaping, hardscaping and appurtenant facilifies. If well
maintained, provide beautlficafion, shade and enhancement of the desirability of the
surroundings, and therefore Increase property value.
• Street trees within the public street parkways provide special benefit to those
properties directly adjacent to those tree-lined parkways.
• Landscaping and hardscaping within medians In the public streets provide special
benefit to those developments that are directly adjacent to the public medians. These
medians are located In the arterial roadways.
General Benefit.
• There are no general benefits associated with local street trees.
• Landscaping and hardscaping within medians in the arterial roadways provide only
incidental aesthetic benefits to motorists travelling to, from or through the city.
Therefore, It Is deemed that there are no general benefits associated with the
landscaped medians.
Vehicular safety associated with the traffic channelization provided by raised
medians is Independent of the landscaping and hardscaping Improvements funded
through this Maintenance District. However, median curb replacement costs are
Included in the overall replacement costs for the medians. Because raised median
curbs are required for both landscaping and traffic channellzafion, 50% ofthe median
curb replacement costs have been removed from the budget.
Benefit Zones
Benefit Zones are used to differentiate between the different types of Improvements to be
maintained and serviced within each such zone. There are currently twelve zones of benefit in
this District.
Zone 1 - Calavera Hills II
The Calavera Hills II development Is located in and around the Intersection of Carlsbad
Village Drive and College Boulevard and is comprised of villages of varying types of land

It Is comprised of residenfial land uses that receive special benefit from the street trees and
street lighfing within the development.
There are 49 single-family detached units ("SFD") that all have local 40W street lights and
trees In the public streets direcfiy adjacent to them.
Street trees and street lights along Camino Junipero are classified as Collector Trees and
Collector 100W lights. The annual cost to maintain these trees and street lights will be
spread among the entire development because the enfire development takes access from
Camino Junipero. However, should the street be extended beyond the Fair Oaks Valley
development, then the benefits to the development will be revaluated.
It Is anticipated that the HOA will maintain the street trees and street lights. The city and the
owners of the land within Fair Oaks Valley have an Agreement to provide for the
maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be
levied within Zone 13 for the maintenance of the trees and lights only if (a) the HOA fails to
maintain such any such street lights and trees pursuant to the Agreement, (b) as a result of
the failure of the HOA to maintain any such Improvements, the city Is required to undertake
such maintenance and (c) the HOA has failed to reimburse the city for the cost of such
maintenance as required pursuant to the Agreement.
ASSESSMENT APPORTIONMENT AND RATES
Equivalent Dwelling Units
To establish the special benefit to the Individual parcels within the District, an Equivalent
Dwelling Unit system Is used. Each parcel of land is assigned Equivalent Dwelling Units
("EDU's") in proportion to the estimated special benefit the parcel receives relative to the other
parcels within the District from the streetlights, street trees and medians.
The single-family detached (SFD) residenfial parcel has been selected as the basic unit for
calculation of assessments; therefore, the SFD residential parcel is defined as one Equivalent
Dwelling Unit (EDU). A methodology has been developed to relate all other land uses to the
SFD residential land use as described below.
Single Family Attached (SFA) Residential. SFA residenfial uses. Including condominiums, are
given a factor of 0.80 EDU per dwelling unit. Based on data from representative cities in

City of Carlsbad May 30, 2014
Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2
Final Annual Engineer's Report - FY 2014-15 Page 18
Southern California, the SFA residenfial factor of 80 percent Is determined by the statisfical
proportion of relafive trip generation from various types of residenfial uses, in combination with
population density per unit.
Apartment (APT) Residential. APT residential uses, also known as multifamily residenfial
uses, are given a factor of 0.60 EDU per dwelling unit. Based on data from representative cifies
in Southern California, the APT residenfial factor of 60 percent Is determined by the statisfical
proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with
population density per unit.
Non-Residential (Non-Res). In converting Improved non-residential properties to EDUs, the
factor used is the City of Carisbad average size for a SFD residenfial lot, which is 1 dwelling unit
per 7,500 sq. ft, or approximately 6 dwelling units per acre. Therefore, Non-Res parcels will be
assessed 6 EDU per acre or any portion thereof
Vacant/Parks. Parcels that are designated for parks or parcels that are developable but do not
have a finalized development map are assessed based upon the acreage of the parcel. These
properties receive special benefits based on their land, as this Is the basis of their value. Based
upon the opinions of professional appraisers, appraising current market property values for real
estate In Southern California, the land value portion of a property typically ranges from 20 to 30
percent ofthe property's total value. Additionally, the utillzafion of vacant property Is significantly
less than Improved property and vacant property has a traffic generation rate of 0. Therefore,
vacant parcels (and park parcels) will be assessed at the rate of 25% of Non-Res properties, or
1.5 EDU per acre or any portion thereof.
Open Space. Parcels designated as open space do not receive special benefits from the
Improvements and are therefore exempt from the assessment.
The following table summarizes the EDU formula described above.
EDU Formula
Land Use EDU Rate
Single Family Detached Res (SFD) 1.0 / DU
Single Family Attached Res (SFA) 0.8 / DU
Apartments (APT) 0.6 / DU
Developed Non-Residential (Non-Res) 6.0 / acre
Vacant / Park 1.5 / acre
Open Space 0.0 / acre
DU = Dwelling Unit
The following tables provide the EDU's for the various types of special benefits associated with
each Zone, FY 2014-15 budget rates and the calculated maximum assessment rates for FY
2014-15. The FY 2014-15 assessment rate will be the lesser of the budget rate and the
maximum rate.
