Adopt Resolution No. 2015-133 approving the Preliminary Engineer's Report for Street lighting and landscaping District No.2 for Fiscal Year 2015-16. Adopt Resolution No. 2015-134 District No. 2 for July 14, 2015. setting a public hearing for Street lighting and Landscaping ITEM EXPLANATION: This agenda bill is requesting City Council's approval of three resolutions necessary to begin processing the city's Street lighting and landscaping District No. 2 for Fiscal Year 2015-16 in compliance with the procedures of the California Streets and Highways Code. 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 other developed parts of the 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 of the city. There are currently 13 zones in District No. 2, including Calavera Hills II, Kelly Ranch, the Oaks South, Thomp·son/Tabata, Palomar Forum, Bressi Ranch, La Costa Greens, La Costa Ridge, the Oaks North Industrial, Robertson Ranch (East Village), the Oaks North Residential, La Costa Town Square and Fair Oaks Valley developments. City staff is currently in the process of annexing a new zone in District No. 2 for the Quarry Creek development. Fiscal Year 2015-16 District No. 2 Processing: In each of the 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, 10 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 DEPARTMENT CONTACT: Roxanne Muhlmeister 760-602-2417 roxanne.muhlmeister@carlsbadca.gov FOR CLERK USE. )( COUNCIL ACTION: APPROVED CONTINUED TO DATE SPECIFIC D DENIED D CONTINUED TO DATE UNKNOWN D CONTINUED D RETURNED TO STAFF D WITHDRAWN D OTHER-SEE MINUTES D AMENDED D REPORT RECEIVED 0 Initia ting Proceedings for LLD #2 6/09/2015 Page2 of3 annual assessment in order to determine the actual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 2014 to January 2015 was 1.3% and is reflected in the maximum assessment rates for 2015-16. 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 of the improvements and charge the property owner up to the maximum annual assessment. This would be done in order for the city to recover its costs of maintaining the improvements. As shown in the table below, the actual assessment rates for a single-family residential parcel per year range from a low of $4.23 per parcel to a high of $174.56 per parcel. These assessments vary between developments depending on the density of each development, and the amount and types of improvements being maintained in each development. #F Development MJb Calavera Hills II Kelly Ranch The Oaks South Thompson/ Tabata Palomar Forum/Carlsbad Raceway Bressi Ranch La Costa Greens La Costa Ridge Oaks North Industrial Robertson Ranch (East Village) Oaks North Residential ASSESSMENT SUMMARY FOR THE AVERAGE ANNUAL SINGLE-FAMILY PARCEL > Actual Proposed M:" & Annual Annual xplanatio 'pbsed Increase to Current ~s~~~jpe~.t'i!:;;· Assess111~H~ :)i l~!yJ;: . sessment Rates for Fiscal Year 2015-16 , Rate (1S:.lG) ;v ,.,,.., ,.·;, ;::y -~:: Rate (14-1~) ?:IT $107.45 $118.15 Increase due to higher median maintenance and lighting maintenance and energy costs. $107.65 $119.12 Increase due to higher median maintenance and lighting maintenance and energy costs. $3.90 $4.23 Increase due to higher lighting maintenance and energy costs. $134.13 $147.89 Increase due to higher median maintenance and lighting maintenance and energy costs.

No assessment, HOA is currently maintaining all improvements. Staff will present a comprehensive report on the maintenance and operations procedures of the Assessment District, as introduced in the attached Preliminary Engineer's Report, at the public hearing scheduled for July 14, 2015. FISCAL IMPACT: The Fiscal Year 2015-16 Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2 total assessments for the 13 zones are projected to be $593,765. Interest earned on cash reserves in the District No.2 Fund 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 Fiscal Year 2015-16 assessments, $305,513 will be spent on maintenance operations and $288,252 will be set aside for future replacement of improvements. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of CEQA in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not require environmental review.

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 Implementation 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 operation, 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 illumination resulting in: 1) improved security of such lots or parcels, 2) improved ingress and egress from such lots or parcels by illuminating access after sunset, and 3) improved nighttime visibility for the local access of emergency vehicles. Local lighting consists of 1 00 watt lights. Street lights on or associated with traffic signals located at arterial-to-local connectors are considered to be 1 00% 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 0:\Finance\Financing Districts\LLD #2\2015-16\RPT -LLD2 15-16 Prelim rpt.docx /(Jl City of Carlsbad Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2 Final Annual Engineer's Report-FY 2015-16 May 5, 2015 Page9 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 lighting 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 Lighting 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. FY 2015-16 COST ESTIMATE COMPARISON OF ELECTRICAL COSTS FOR THE VARIOUS STREET LIGHTS WITHIN THE CITY Annual Amount $115,704.00 $115,704.00 $24.00 r h ~ · 1 191 wattage 191 ts or artena streets: 70 103 $3.52 $362.56 $4,350.72 $42.24 85 19 $4.28 $81.32 $975.84 $51.36 100 1,600 $5.01 $8,016.00 $96,192.00 $60.12 150 553 $7.51 $4,153.03 $49,836.36 $90.12 200 151 $10.03 $1,514.53 $18,174.36 $120.36 250 15 $12.55 $188.25 $2,259.00 $150.60 Subtotal-2 2,441 $171,788.28 Total 7,262 $287,492.28 General Benefit= $113,204.28 FY 2015-16 Lighting Budget Amount $1,073,689 FY 2015-16 Public Parcel Contribution $28,000 Total Est Cost Less Public Parcel Contribution* $1,045,689 !General Benefit Percentage 10.8%1 *Based on prelininary budget estirrates General Benefit $0.00 $0.00 $1,878.72 $519.84 $57,792.00 $36,564.36 $14,550.36 $1,899.00 $113,204.28 Therefore, 10.8% of the Street Lighting Improvements on the city's arterial roadways are considered general benefit, and only 89.20% of these Street Lighting Improvements will be used to estimate the special benefit costs.

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 1 00% general benefit. Street Landscaping. Special Benefit. Trees, landscaping, hardscaping and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, provide beautification, 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 channelization, 50% of the 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 uses that will receive special benefit from the street lighting, street trees and medians within and directly adjacent to the development. It is anticipated that the Home Owners Association ("HOA") will maintain the street trees. The city and the owners of the land within Calavera Hills II have an agreement to provide for the maintenance of the street trees by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 1 for the maintenance of street trees only if (a) the HOA fails to maintain such street trees pursuant to the Agreement, (b) as a result of the failure of the HOA to maintain such street trees, the city is required to undertake such maintenance Q:\Finance\Financing Districts\LLD #2\2015-16\RPT-LLD2 15-16 Prelim rpt.docx !3 City of Carlsbad Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2 Final Annual Engineer's Report-FY 2015-16 May 5, 2015 Page 11 and (c) the HOA has failed to reimburse the city for the cost of such maintenance as required pursuant to the Agreement. Villages K, L-2, Wand X are comprised of single family detached ("SFD") units and have local streetlights and street trees within the public streets. Village X also has a 0.08-acre of non- residential ("Non-Res") land use that takes access off of College Boulevard. This property is a utility with no local streetlights or street tress adjacent to it. Villages E, U and Y are comprised of single family attached ("SFA"), apartment ("APT') units, and 1 acre of Non-Res land use, and do not have any local lighting or street trees. Village "Y" also has a 1.05-acre of Non-Res use. Village H is comprised of 2 acres of Non-Res use and does not have local lighting and street trees. All of the villages receive special benefit from the arterial street lighting on Carlsbad Village Drive, College Boulevard and Tamarack Avenue that is directly adjacent to these village areas. The entire Calavera Hills development (not just Calavera Hills II) benefits from the medians within College Boulevard and Carlsbad Village Drive within the boundaries of the development. An analysis has been performed to allocate the appropriate share of the medians to the Calavera Hills II development based on the assessment apportionment methodology shown in this Report. Zone 2 -Kelly Ranch Core The Kelly Ranch Core development is located southeast of the intersection of Cannon Drive and Faraday Avenue and is comprised of varying types of land uses that receive special benefit from the street lighting and medians within and directly adjacent to the development. The core development consists of SFD and APT units, 2.61 acres of Non-Res, a park and vacant property (future development details have not been determined) that have local streetlights in the public streets directly adjacent to them. All of these properties benefit from the local lights within this core development. There are an additional 5 SFD units planned for the Kirgis development, which is directly adjacent to Kelly Ranch and takes access through the development. A 2.63 acres site of Non-Res does not have local lighting. Part of this development also includes a city-owned 1.48-acre future wastewater pumping plant site taking access off of Cannon Road. This property is considered Non-Res utility property that has no local streetlights adjacent to it. Although this property is a utility with essentially no value, it does receive the arterial lighting special benefits; however, this utility property is not deemed to benefit from the landscaped median improvements. All of the development receives special benefit from the arterial street lighting and medians on Cannon Road.

It is anticipated that the HOA will maintain the street trees, local street lights and medians. The city and the owners of the land within the Oaks South have an Agreement to provide for the maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 3 for the maintenance of such improvements only if (a) the HOA fails to maintain such any such improvements pursuant to the Agreement, (b) as a result ofthe 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. The development consists of SFD units, and 1.62 acres of Non-Res property that have local street lights and street trees in the public streets directly adjacent to them. All of the development receives special benefit from the arterial street lighting and medians on Rancho Santa Fe Road. The median improvements on Rancho Santa Fe Road extend into an open space area that separates The Oaks South from The Oaks North development. This median provides an aesthetic link between the two developments and therefore 50% of the costs of the medians within the open space area to the north of The Oaks South is apportioned to The Oaks South, and 50% is apportioned to The Oaks North. Zone 4-Thompson I Tabata The Thompson/Tabata development is located along Poinsettia Lane west of Aviara Parkway and is comprised of varying types of land uses that benefit from the operation and maintenance of street lighting, street trees and medians within and directly adjacent to the development. It is anticipated that the HOA will maintain the street trees. The city and the owners of the land within the Thompson/Tabata property have an Agreement to provide for the maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 4 for the maintenance of street trees only if (a) the HOA fails to maintain such street trees pursuant to the Agreement, (b) as a result of the failure of the HOA to maintain such street trees, 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. The development consists of SFD units that have local street lights and street trees in the public streets directly adjacent to them, and SFA units that take access off streets with local streetlights but do not have street trees directly adjacent to them. All of the development receives special benefit from the arterial street lighting and medians on Poinsettia Lane. The existing SFD property, Assessor's Parcel Number 214-170-81-00, is already assessed in Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 1 and is therefore exempted from this District.

The Palomar Forum development is located along the northerly side of Palomar Airport Road, east of Melrose Drive, and is comprised of 51.63 acres of Non-Res and 1.71 acres of Park that have 100 watt local street lights in the public streets directly adjacent to them. The Carlsbad Raceway development is located north of Palomar Airport Road and west of Business Park Drive and is comprised of 86.22 acres of Non-Res that has 200 watt local street lights in the public street directly adjacent to them. Both developments receive special benefit from the arterial street lighting and medians on Melrose Drive and Palomar Airport Road. Zone 6 -Bressi Ranch The Bressi Ranch development is located on the southeast corner of Palomar Airport Road and El Camino Real. It is comprised of varying types of land uses that receive special benefit from the street trees, medians, street lighting within and directly adjacent to the development. The entire development benefits from the street lighting within and directly adjacent to the development, except the residential estate area that has private streets and so does not have any local public street light benefits. It is anticipated that the HOA will maintain the local streetlights and the street trees within the residential areas and the medians in Poinsettia Lane. The city and the owners of the land within Bressi Ranch have an Agreement to provide for the maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 6 for the maintenance of the local street lights only if (a) the HOA fails to maintain such any such street lights 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.

The city and the owners of the land within the Oaks North have an Agreement to provide for the maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 11 for the maintenance of the local street lights and street trees only if (a) the HOA fails to maintain such any such street lights 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. There are 284 SFD units and a 2.26 acre park on public streets, with local street lights and street trees within and directly adjacent to them. There are a total of 168 APT units, a 5.71 acre RV Parking lot, and 43 SFD units on private streets, with no public local street lights or street trees. All of the development receives special benefit from the collector street lighting, street trees, and medians on San Elijo Road and Avenida Soledad All of the development receives special benefit from the arterial street lighting and medians on Rancho Santa Fe Road. The median improvements on Rancho Santa Fe Road extend into an open space area that separates The Oaks South from The Oaks North development. This median provides an aesthetic link between the two developments and therefore 50% of the costs of the medians within the open space area to the south of The Oaks North is apportioned to The Oaks North, and 50% is apportioned to The Oaks South. Zone 12-La Costa Town Square The La Costa Town Square development is located on the north east corner of La Costa Avenue and Rancho Santa Fe Road. It is comprised of varying types of land uses that receive special benefit from the street trees, street lighting, and medians within and directly adjacent to the development. There are 63 SFDs that all have local street lights and trees in the public streets directly adjacent to them. There is are 43.61 acres Non-Res development and 32 SFDs that do not have public local street lights or street trees. Street trees and street lights along La Costa Avenue are classified as Collector Trees and Collector 40W lights. The La Costa Town Square development is on the north side of La Costa Avenue and will benefit from the street lights along La Costa Avenue, therefore 50% of the street lights along La Costa Avenue have been apportioned to the La Costa Town Square. All the trees in La Costa Avenue directly adjacent to the La Costa Town Square have been apportioned to the La Costa Town Square. The annual cost to maintain these trees and street lights will be spread among the development areas that are directly adjacent to and take access from La Costa Avenue. These include the SFD and Non-Res development areas. It is anticipated that the HOA will maintain the street trees. The city and the owners of the land within La Costa Town Square have an Agreement to provide for the maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 12 for the maintenance of the trees 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.

There will be approximately 1, 795 linear feet of medians in Rancho Santa Fe Road along the south east side of the development (which equals approx. 34,1 05 sf of medians based on a typical 19' width}. The La Costa Town Center development is on both the north and south side of Rancho Santa Fe Road and will benefit from the improved aesthetics of the medians; therefore the entire benefit from the medians in Rancho Santa Fe Road is apportioned to the La Costa Town Square. Zone 13-Fair Oaks Valley The Fair Oaks Valley development is located to the east of the La Costa Oaks development. It is comprised of residential land uses that receive special benefit from the street trees and · street lighting within the development. There are 49 SFDs that all have local 40W street lights and trees in the public streets directly adjacent to them. Street trees and street lights along Camino Junipero are classified as Collector Trees and Collector 1 OOW lights. The annual cost to maintain these trees and street lights will be spread among the entire development because the entire 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. Zone 14-Quarry Creek The Quarry Creek development is located south of Haymar Road. It is comprised of residential land uses that receive special benefit from the street trees and street lighting within the development. There are anticipated to be an 89 unit APT, 352 SFDs, 0.9 acre parking lot and 5.2 acres of Parks that will benefit from street trees and street lights located in the public collector roadways within the development. Street trees and street lights along Hayward Street and Street A, Street B, Street D, Street E are classified as Collector Trees and Collector 1 OOW lights. The annual cost to maintain these trees and street lights will be spread among the entire development because the entire development takes access from these streets. It is anticipated that the HOA will maintain the street trees. The city and the owners of the land within Quarry Creek have an Agreement to provide for the maintenance of such improvements by the HOA; therefore, annual assessments will be levied within Zone 14 for the maintenance of the trees only if (a) the HOA fails to maintain such any such trees pursuant to the Agreement, (b) as a result of the failure of the HOA to maintain any such Improvements, the Q:\Finance\Financing Districts\LLD #2\2015-16\RPT -LLD2 15-16 Prelim rpt.docx City of Carlsbad Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 2 Final Annual Engineer's Report-FY 2015-16 May 5, 2015 Page 18 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 ("EDUs") 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) residential 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 residential uses, including condominiums, are given a factor of 0.80 EDU per dwelling unit. Based on data from representative cities in Southern California, the SFA residential factor of 80 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with population density per unit. Apartment (APT) Residential. APT residential uses, also known as multi-family residential uses, are given a factor of 0.60 EDU per dwelling unit. Based on data from representative cities in Southern California, the APT residential factor of 60 percent is determined by the statistical 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 Carlsbad average size for a SFD residential 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 of the property's total value. Additionally, the utilization 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.
