CSD CITY MGR.+ RECOMMENDED ACTION: Hold this public hearing to hear the staff report, receive public comment and approve Resolution confirming the diagram and assessment as contained in the Engineer’s Report and pro- vidlng for the levy of the annual assessments of the Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 1. ITEM EXPLANATION: At the Council meeting of June 24, 1997, Council approved three resolutions which initiated proceedings and ordered the presentation of an Engineer’s Report for a Special Maintenance District, approved the Engineer’s Report and set tonight‘s public hearing (July 15, 1997). Tonight Community Services Department staff will present a comprehensive report on the maintenance and operations procedures and Fiscal Year 1997-98 adopted budget packages for the three zones: Street Lighting, Street Tree Maintenance and Street Median Maintenance, as detailed in the previously approved Engineer’s Report. Included in tonight‘s report will be a description of the District’s compliance with Proposition 218 and the City’s contribution of a “General Benefit” to each of the three zones which will be presented by the engineering consultant for the District. The City’s General Benefit contributions will be the only impact of Proposition 218 upon the processing of the maintenance district for Fiscal Year 1997-98. I Proposition 218 could affect some 1972 Act Landscaping and Lighting Districts by requiring the mailing of ballots to each assessed property owner giving details of the assessment proceedings and providing an opportunity to vote on the assessments. However, Carlsbad’s Landscaping and Lighting District No. 1 meets three of the exceptions to the mailed ballot procedure: one, all assessed improvements are located within the public right-of-way and were required by engineering standards to be part of the public street improvements; two, a “Petition to Annex” form is signed by property owners of all the parcels subject to benefit assessments prior to the construction of new street improvements adjacent to their property as part of the conditions for new development within the City; three, there will be no increase in assessments for any of the three benefit zones in Fiscal Year 1997-98. The Resolution setting tonight‘s public hearing was published in the Notfh County Times in the time frame codified in the Government Code (ten days prior to this public hearing). In addition, staff published an additional information type announcement in the newspaper for a period of three days to invite public input prior to tonight‘s meeting. At the close of the public hearing tonight, Council is requested to adopt Resolution No. 77- 53y providing for the levy of the annual assessments for Fiscal Year 1997-98. FISCAL IMPACT: The Fiscal Year 1997-98 Street Lighting and Landscaping District No. 1 budget totals are projected to be $1,675,914 or $7,520 more than the adopted budget for Fiscal Year 1996-97. The City’s other funds are required to contribute their share of costs for services provided directly to them by the District. In addition, due to the implementation of Proposition 21 8, the City’s general fund must now pay for the portion of the assessment district work that is considered a “general” rather than a “special” benefit. The contributions for each Zone are shown below.

PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS for the maintenance and/or servicing of the improvements during the Fiscal Year. The plans and specifications show and describe the general nature, location and extent of the existing and proposed improvements to be maintained and/or serviced during the Fiscal Year. The plans and specifications also indicate the class and type of improvements to be maintained andlor serviced for each zone within the District. A DIAGRAM of the District. The Diagram shows the exterior boundaries of the District, the boundaries of any zones within the District, and the lines and dimensions of each lot or parcel within the District. Each parcel is identified by a distinctive number or letter. The lines and dimensions of each lot conform to those shown on the County Assessor's map for Fiscal Year. AN ESTIMATE OF COSTS AND AN ASSESSMENT SCHEDULE showing the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District, describing each assessable lot or parcel within the District by reference to the Parcel numbers contained on the County Assessment Roll, and assessing the net amount upon all assessable lots or parcels by apportioning the net amount among the several assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the benefits to be received by each lot or parcel. Annual assessment increases will be caused by reasons of increases in the costs of labor, materials and utility cost increases as applied to energy rates and water fees. Engineer's Repon - I997 2 Assessments can be annually modified and increased to reflect an annual modification in the cost of labor and materials based upon the Consumer Price Index, San Diego, as published by the Department of Labor as computed for the first Jndex in March of each year with additional modifications for related energy and water rate increases. Principal Civil Engineer RCE C21494 Engineer’s Report - 1997 3 DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MAINTAINED The improvements to be maintained and serviced are generally described as street lighting, street trees and landscaped and hardscaped street medians all located within the public right- of-way and as caused by new development and City improvement projects, all as set forth and described in this Engineer’s Report. New development has added 264 street lights to be included in the City’s Fiscal Year 1997-98 maintenance inventory. The City’s street tree inventory remains constant at approximately 21,000 trees, with the exception of replacement of damaged trees. New development improvements do not include trees in public street right-of-way areas. The additional street median area to be maintained in Fiscal Year 1997-98 is 3.54 acres due to the addition of median improvements to portions of Avenida Encinas and Palomar Airport Road. The Street Lighting Zone, the Street Tree Trimming Zone and the Street Median Maintenance Zone assessments will not increase in Fiscal Year 1997-98, and will remain at the same base formula rates as assessed in Fiscal Year 1996-97. All new Assessor’s parcels, that by petition of the property owner(s) have been added to the three zones, will be calculated at the same base formulas as used in the last fiscal year.

CODE G2** Special lighting and spacing standard, downtown redevelopment area CODE H 1 *** Street light spacing at current City standard, time shares only * Assessment is based on equal shares of cost of maintenance and operation of total lights within each code. ** Assessment is based on share of cost of maintenance and operation of total lights as formulated by front footage percentage of each parcel in relation to total footage within each code. *** Flat rate per unit Engineer’s Report - 1997 * METHOD AND FORMULA FOR ASSESSMENT SPREAD FOR STREET LIGHTING (CONTINUED) Assessment Criteria: The improvements and annexation into the District are required for the approval of, and as a consequence of, new development, and thus benefit the respective developments. The lighting is of benefit to abutting parcels as it provides increased property protection, personal safety, visibility, traffic safety, and enhances those areas fronting upon the illuminated street. The method of assessment for codes within Zone 1 is based on units. In the case of codes AI, BI, Cl and Dl a residential dwelling is equal to one benefit unit. In Code E2 condominium dwelling units or apartment buildings with ten units and above are assigned units based on the front footage of these developments. In Code F2 commercial and industrial parcels are assigned units based on the front footage of these developments. Code G2 includes the downtown redevelopment area and units in this code is also based on front footage. Code HI only includes time share units, which are all assigned the same cost per unit.

(2) See Table “B”. The cost estimate for Personnel and Maintenance. & Operations. (3) The remaining fund balance is adequate to cover the Tax Roll Reserve amount. has been reduced by $25,500 for service to other City departments. The “Balance to Assessment” shown above is spread upon the several parcels of land within the District liable therefore and benefited thereby, in proportion to the estimated benefits that each parcel receives, respectively, from said maintained works of improvement and appurtenances as established in the formation of the District. All of the parcels within the District are located within the City of Carlsbad and are approved developments or are in the final stages of obtaining approval for a proposed development. As a condition of approval, the developer is required by the City to provide certain standard street lighting for the entire area within the development; and the energy costs for the initial 18-month period. The units in a development are not assessed the initial fiscal year to account for the developer funded energy costs. The District provides funding for the furnishing of services and materials for the ordinary and usual operation, maintenance and servicing of the installed street lights. .These services and materials include the furnishing of electric current (referred to as energy above). Personnel costs include City staff assigned to Street Lighting services, City administration (annual audit of City’s street lighting assessment, updating expenditures and reassessments) engineering and legal expenses. Maintenance and Operations includes supervision, coordination between Engineer3 Repofl - 1997 17 ‘I 0 citizens and SDG&E for the maintenance of utility owned street lights, coordination between developers and SDG&E for energizing new lighting systems, providing expertise to City inspectors during inspection of lighting systems, coordinate underground service alert mark- outs for various City departments, perform mark-outs for street light and traffic signal systems, maintain as-built record of City street light system for future maintenance, perform routine night surveillance, incorporate street light numbering system, check proposed improvement plans for conformance with City standards regarding street light, storm drain and traffic signal systems, coordinate with Planning, Engineering and Engineer’s of Work to ensure that departmental needs are met. The tax roll reserve, identified in Note 3 above, is an advance for a portion of the estimated costs of servicing and maintenance prior to the receipt of tax collections from the County of San Diego. The lighting and the orderly circulation of traffic directly benefits the developments within the District. Any share of the benefits received that does not provide a special benefit to the assessed properties is a general benefit provided by the improvements. The cost of the general benefit is not to be assessed to the properties in the district. The cost of the general benefit is to be contributed by the City. This cost for lights is equal to the average annual unit cost difference between the low wattage 9,500 lumen lights and the high wattage 22,000 lumen lights. A 9,500 lumen light is the standard required on a local street. Other streets, such as arterials, require a standard greater than 9,500 lumens in oider to service a capacity greater than the local traffic.

Each property within the Street Tree Maintenance Zone receives approximately the same degree of benefit to their property. Therefore, staff established a benefit formula in which each zoned parcel is given an equivalent dwelling unit (EDU) based on the average size of a single family residential lot in the City of Carlsbad (7,500 square feet or .I7 acres). Thus, each single family parcel is given an EDU of 1.0, while most other parcels* are given assessments based on acreage to establish an EDU value based on the foliowing formula: Acreage of parcel / 0.17 acres = EDUs STREET MEDIAN MAINTENANCE ZONE This service generally benefits all parcels and,residents in the City. Thus, all parcels in the City share in the cost of median maintenance using the same EOU formula as in effect for the Street Tree Maintenance Zone. These formulas were approved by City Council at the June 6, 1989 regular meeting. *See following page for Benefit Units/Land Use code conversion guide. Engineer’s Report - 1997 24 BEN.

Benefit. The Street Tree division provides maintenance to all trees in the public right-of-way (over 21 ,OOO), parks, open space areas, and trees at all City facilities. The maintenance consists of pruning, planting, removal and root pruning. The division annually responds to over 500 street tree order/requests, removes over 50 trees and plants over 100 trees. Table “C”, below, shows the calculation for the reduction in cost for service to other departments in the City. The cost for service to other departments is subtracted from the total budget cost to arrive at the “Balance to Assessment” to parcels in the District.
