Bahorski, City Manager Pamela Arends -King, Director of Administrative Services/Treasurer Street Lighting Assessment District SUMMARY OF REOUEST: 40 5,z That Council adopts the attached resolutions initiating the annual levy of street lighting assessment, approving the Engineer's Report and setting the date for the public hearing on May 31, 2002. BACKGROUND: As in past years, the City contracted with MuniFinancial to develop a proposal to initiate an annual levy of assessments for the Street Lighting Assessment District for Fiscal Year 2002/03. Under the provisions of the "Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972," (Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California), the three resolutions on tonight's agenda we required steps to begin the process and must be passed in order to set the public hearing date. In the Engineer's Report prepared by MuniFinancial are the plans and specifications for the improvements, an estimate of the cost for the improvements, a diagram of the assessment district and an assessment of the estimated cost of the improvements. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, Council may adopt a resolution confirming the diagram and assessment either as originally proposed or as modified by Council. The adoption of the resolution shall constitute the levy of an assessment for the fiscal year referred to in the assessment. The assessment for each parcel of property in the district is based upon the benefit derived from street lighting. Total estimated costs for providing street lighting for 2002/03 is $263,250, which includes utility costs of $139,000, maintenance cost (removal, repairs, and replacements) of $10,000, administrative costs of $15,000, assessment engineer costs of $9,500, City Attorney costs of $2,000 and a reserve fund of $87,750. At the end of June 30, 2002 estimated surplus for the assessment district is $118,570, therefore to cover the Fiscal Year 2002/2003 expenditures and the 50% reserve, the total revenues needed are $144,680. Agenda Item May 28, 2002 Street Lighting Assessment District Revenues will be generated by the assessment of $144,680. A comparison of the last two- year's assessments to the proposed assessment for certain parcels is summarized in the following table: 2000 -01 2001 -02 2002 -03 Zone 1 Single family homes in College Park East & West, the Hill & Cove Areas $21.86 $21.86 $21.86 Zone 2 Single family homes in Old Town $11.26 $11.26 $11.26 Zone 3 Leisure World Condominiums $ 1.21 $ 1.21 $ 1.21 Zone 4 Surfside $ 4.15 $ 4.15 $ 4.15 Exhibit B -1 of the Engineer's Report to this report gives additional examples of assessment amounts by land use and zone for FY 2002/03. If the resolutions initiating the proceedings, approving the Engineer's report and setting the public hearing are adopted, the following schedule of events must occur in order to establish the assessments for next fiscal year. DATE May 28 City Council adopts resolution initiating proceedings, approving Engineer's report, adopts resolution of intention and sets date for public hearing on May 31, 2002.

The maintenance and servicing of arterial street lights which provide a special benefit to all the assessable parcels within the District whether or not such parcels are in close proximity to such lights. The 1972 Act, in Section 22573, states that 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." Details of the formula being used to spread the assessments throughout this District are found under the heading "Method of Apportionment of Assessment ". MUnIFInancial City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 ENGINEER'S REPORT ANNUAL LEVY OF ASSESSMENT STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT NO.' CITY OF SEAL BEACH PROPOSITION 218 In November 1996 voters of the State of California passed Proposition 218 which added Article XIIID to the California Constitution requiring new procedures for assessment districts. Article XIIID requires that assessments comply with stated provisions by July 1, 1997, unless an assessment district meets certain exemptions. The exemptions from the procedural and approval requirements are set forth in Section 5 of the Article and include the following: "(a) Any assessment imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance and operation expenses for sidewalks, streets, sewers, water, flood control, drainage systems or vector control." The City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 qualifies as an existing assessment with the District funding items that are considered exempt under provision (a) quoted above, specifically street and sidewalk improvements. Using the definitions provided by the Office of the Controller for the State of California in the Guidelines Relating to Gas Tax Expenditures published by the Division of Local Government Fiscal Affairs, street improvements include street lighting. It is the Assessment Engineer's understanding that the highest assessment rates used to calculate the annual assessments in years prior to the approval of Proposition 218 established the maximum assessment rates. Therefore, so long as the assessment rates do not exceed the maximum rates established prior to the passage of Proposition 218, assessment balloting is not required.

The map is currently on file in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Seal Beach, and is available for review and public inspection. MuniFinancial 3 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 ENGINEER'S REPORT ANNUAL LEVY OF ASSESSMENT STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 1 CITY OF SEAL BEACH PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS The improvements include the maintenance and servicing of the public street lighting system within the City of Seal Beach. The City maintains Street Light Inventory Maps that show and describe the general nature, location, and extent of the street lights. These maps are on file in the office of the City Clerk where they are available for inspection and are incorporated herein by reference. Maintenance includes, but is not limited to, the removal, repair, or replacement of light standards, poles, bulbs, fixtures, appurtenances, supplies, etc. Servicing includes the furnishing of all electrical energy to the street lights. The local street lighting improvements to be maintained and serviced in Zones 1 and 2 of this District include the residential portion of the Edison -owned street lights within the boundaries of these zones. Zones 3 and 4 of this District have no local street lighting improvements to be maintained. The local street lighting improvements to be maintained and serviced in Zone 5 of this District include the non - residential portion of the Edison -owned street lights within the boundaries of this zone. The arterial street lighting improvements to be maintained and serviced by this District include Edison and City-owned street lights on the following streets and highways: • Beverly Manor Road - West of Seal Beach Boulevard • Boise Avenue - Pacific Coast Highway to Seal Beach Boulevard • Electric Avenue - Marina Drive to Seal Beach Boulevard • First Street - Pacific Coast Highway to Ocean Avenue • Lampson Avenue - Seal Beach Boulevard to East City Limit • Main Street - Pacific Coast Highway to Ocean Avenue • Marina Drive - West City Limit to Pack Coast Highway • Ocean Avenue - First Street to Seal Beach Boulevard • Old Ranch Parkway - Seal Beach Boulevard to the 22 Freeway • Pacific Coast Highway - West City Limit to East City Limit • Seal Beach Boulevard - North City Limit to Ocean Avenue • Westminster Avenue — West City Limit to East City Limit MuniFinancial City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 ENGINEER'S REPORT ANNUAL LEVY OF ASSESSMENT STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT NO.' CITY OF SEAL BEACH FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The costs of providing the services that are to be funded by the District were estimated by the City in connection with the Fiscal Year 2002/2003 City budget. The District's estimated budget for Fiscal Year 2002/2003 is detailed in Exhibit A. The following table shows the Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Assessment Budget and how the local lighting benefit is apportioned to each zone within the District: DESCRIPTION AMOUNT Budget For Fiscal Year 2002/2003 $263,250 Revenue for Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Estimated Reserve Balance at June 30, 2002 $104,981 General Fund Contribution 13 589 Subtotal 118,570 Total Assessments for Fiscal Year 2002/2003 144.680 Total Revenue $263,250 A / /ocaMon to Zones Arterial Street Lighting Benefit $64,330 Local Street Lighting Benefit Zone 1 $54,844 Zone 2 $18,972 Zone 5 $6,534 Subtotal Local Street Lighting Benefit $80,350 TOTAL ASSESSMENT $144,680 Muni Financial City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 ENGINEER'S REPORT ANNUAL LEVY OF ASSESSMENT STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 1 CITY OF SEAL BEACH METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT Section 22573 of the 1972 Act provides that assessments may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount to be assessed among all assessable lots or parcels within the District in proportion to the estimated benefits received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements. The 1972 Act also permits the classification of various areas within the District into different zones where, by reason of variations in the nature, location and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive differing degrees of benefit from the improvements. A zone shall consist of all territory that will receive substantially the same degree of benefit from the improvements. All lots and parcels within the District boundaries, with the exception of utility operating rights -of -way and public property, will be assessed. The proposed method of apportionment of assessment for Local Street Lighting Benefits and Arterial Street Lighting Benefits is described below: LOCAL STREET LIGHTING BENEFITS (FOR STREET LIGHTS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO LOTS AND PARCELS) Maintenance and servicing of certain street lights along the streets and highways in close proximity to certain lots or parcels provides a special benefit to such lots or parcels for the following reasons: X Such street lights, by virtue of the illumination they provide, improve security of such lots or parcels. X Such street lights improve ingress to and egress from such lots or parcels by illuminating access after sunset, and by so improving ingress and egress, further improve the security of such lots or parcels by improving the nighttime visibility of such lots or parcels and the access of emergency vehicles thereto. MuniFinancial 6 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Also, in the case of commercial lots or parcels, such street lights, by improving ingress and egress, facilitate the opening and operation of businesses used after sunset. The assessment formula recognizes that benefits received from street lights are based on the following criteria: A. Traffic Circulation 1. Improved ingress to and egress from lots or parcels within the District. 2. Improved ingress to and egress from commercial lots or parcels and a corresponding promotion of business during nighttime hours. B. Security 1. Increased illumination after sunset and a corresponding reduction in vandalism and other criminal acts and damage to improvements. 2. Increased illumination after sunset and a corresponding improvement to the access of emergency vehicles to such lots or parcels. 3. Increased illumination after sunset and a corresponding reduction in illegal dumping on vacant land. C. Intensity 1. Intensity or degree of illumination provided on adjacent streets varies with the type of street and the use of the adjacent property. The basic unit for this formula is the single - family residence with the traffic circulation benefits being assigned one -half unit and security and intensity benefits being assigned one - quarter unit each, for a total of one unit. Multi- family residential, condominium and townhouse parcels are assigned the following declining scale of fractional traffic circulation benefit units: one -half unit per dwelling unit for the first 20, one -third unit for MuniFinancial 7 City of Seal Beach Street Liqhtinq District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 the 21st through 50th, one -fourth unit for the 51st through 100th, and one -fifth unit for each dwelling over 100. For multi - family residential, condominium and townhouse parcels, security and intensity benefits are assigned '/4 -unit for each dwelling unit. However, figuring any dwelling units over four would be set back sufficiently far from the lighted street that they received minimal security and intensity benefit per unit, a maximum value of one unit each for security and intensity is assigned. Exhibit B provides examples of the direct assessment for local street lighting per parcel. For purposes of the local lighting benefits, the lots or parcels have been divided into the following zones: ZONE PARCELB/LOTS 1 All residential zoned parcels within the areas generally known as College Park East, College Park West and The Hill. This zone also includes the condominium parcels on Montecito Road in the vicinity of the Rossmoor Center. 2 All residential zoned parcels including those used for commercial uses as described on Page 10 within the Old Town area between Pacific Coast Highway and the Pacific Ocean. 3 All residential zoned parcels within the Leisure World complex west of Seal Beach Boulevard between the San Diego Freeway and Westminster Avenue. 4 All residential zoned parcels within the Surfside community located between Pacific Coast Highway and the Pacific Ocean immediately northwest of Anderson Avenue. 5 All nonresidential zoned, nonexempt parcels within the City. 6 All exempt parcels within the City. LOCAL LIGHTING ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY BY ZONE Zone 1 Under the proposed formula, all single - family residences within Zone 1 will be assessed the same amount. Multiple - family residential and condominium parcels with an equal number of dwelling units will be assessed equal amounts. There are certain condominiums and apartment complexes in Zone 1 that lie on large contiguous parcels. MuniFinancial City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 For these parcels, the combined parcels' total assessment is computed, and then evenly distributed among the units on such parcels. In no case will the assessment for a dwelling unit on a multiple - family parcel exceed that of a single - family residence. The local benefit assessment per unit in Zone 1 is determined to be a maximum of $17.71. Exception: Because of the distance between the nearest street lights and the condominium units at Montecito, such parcels receive insignificant benefit from such lights and are therefore not assessed for local street lighting benefits. Zone 2 Under the proposed formula, all single - family residences within Zone 2 will be assessed the same amount. Multiple - family residential and condominium parcels with an equal number of dwelling units will be assessed equal amounts. There are certain condominiums and apartment complexes in Zone 2 that lie on large contiguous parcels. For these parcels, the combined parcels' total assessment is computed, and then evenly distributed among the units on such parcels. In no case will the assessment for a dwelling unit on a multiple - family parcel exceed that of a single - family residence. The local benefit assessment per unit in Zone 2 is determined to be a maximum of $7.11. There are certain parcels within Zone 2 on residential zoned lots or parcels that are being used for nonresidential uses. These parcels were assigned comparable units on the basis of whether they had nominal, moderate, or high intensity, traffic circulation, and security benefits. Because the intensity of the street lights in Zone 2 is the same regardless of how a parcel is used, the intensity benefits determined for these nonresidential parcels are equivalent to those assigned to a single - family residential parcel. Because of greater traffic generated by nonresidential uses, those parcels determined to have nominal, moderate and high traffic circulation benefits were assessed two, four, and eight times, respectively, that of an equivalent single - family residential parcel. Because parcels with nonresidential uses generally require and therefore benefit more from increased security due to the greater value of improvements on such parcels, such parcels determined to have nominal, moderate, and high security benefits were assessed two, four, and eight times, respectively, that of an equivalent single - family residential parcel. MuniFinancial 9 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Exception: Because of the distance between the local street lights that benefit the Seal Beach Trailer Park and the individual dwelling units within the park, the trailer park is not assessed as a multi - family parcel. However, the Seal Beach Trailer Park has been determined to receive some local lighting benefits which are equivalent to 3.25 units, the benefiting parcel's unit distribution defined in Subsection C below. Single unit trailer parcels are not assessed for local lighting benefits due to their considerable distance from local streets. Each of the parcels in Zone 2 being used for nonresidential use is determined to be in one of the following categories: A. Commercial Parking Lots, Churches - 1.75 units based on intensity (.25 units), nominal traffic circulation (1 unit) and nominal security benefit (.50 units). B. Professional or Office Buildings, Service Shops - 2.25 units based on intensity (.25 units), nominal traffic circulation (1 unit) and moderate security benefit (1 unit). C. Store with Residence - 3.25 units based on intensity (.25 units), moderate traffic circulation (2 units) and moderate security benefit (1 unit). D. Hotels/Motels - 6.25 units based on intensity (.25 units), high traffic circulation (4 units) and high security benefit (2 units). Zones 3 and 4 Because the local street lighting system within these zones is privately owned and not the responsibility of the City of Seal Beach, the parcels in Zones 3 and 4 are not assessed for local street lighting. Zone 5 Since the size of the parcels within Zone 5 (zoned nonresidential) varies considerably, it would not be equitable to determine that each parcel received a similar local street lighting benefit from the maintenance and servicing of street lights in close proximity to the lots or parcels. Therefore, the formula proposed for spreading the cost of local MuniFinancial 10 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. I — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 street lighting assessments in Zone 5 is based on the front footage of each lot or parcel on a street that provides local street lighting for that parcel. The local benefit assessment per unit in Zone 5 is determined to be a maximum of $.15 per front foot. Exceptions: Any nonresidential zoned parcel within the Leisure World complex and the Surfside Community are not assigned any local street lighting benefits because the local street lighting system within these zones is privately owned and not the responsibility of the City of Seal Beach. Zone 6 Zone 6 is the District classification for all non- assessed parcels in the District, including all federal, state, county and city owned parcels, which are exempt from the assessment, as well as any privately owned parcels that are determined to receive no benefit from the District improvements. ARTERIAL STREET LIGHTING BENEFIT (FOR STREET LIGHTS oN ARTERIAL STREETS) Zones 1 through 4 The maintenance and servicing of street lights on arterial streets and highways, previously named in this report and within the District, provides a special benefit which is received by each and every assessable lot or parcel within the District, tending to enhance their value for the following reasons. Each of the streets listed is a major arterial street which improves access to all lots or parcels throughout the District. Such street lights improve ingress to and egress from such lots or parcels by illuminating access after sunset. Arterial street lights create a city-wide lighting system that provides traffic circulation benefits. While local street lighting benefits properties adjacent to the lighting, arterial street lighting benefits traffic circulation to and from all parcels city-wide. Therefore, the formula proposed for spreading the arterial street lighting benefit is based on the traffic circulation benefits for each lot or parcel with the basic unit being the single - family residence assigned a traffic circulation unit of 1. The arterial benefit assessment per unit is determined to be a maximum of $4.15. Typically, fewer people live on multi - family parcels on a per unit basis than on a single - family parcel. Therefore, the benefit received by multi - family parcels, per unit, from MuniFinancial 11 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 arterial street lights is less than single - family parcels. Multi- family residential, condominium and townhouse parcels are assigned the following declining scale of fractional benefit units, similar to those assigned above for local benefit street lighting: one -half unit per dwelling for the first 20, one -third unit per dwelling for the 21st through 50th, one - quarter unit per dwelling for the 51st through 100th, and one -fifth unit for each dwelling over 100. There are certain condominiums and apartment complexes that lie on large contiguous parcels. For these parcels, the combined parcel's total assessment is computed, and then evenly distributed among the units on such parcels. Within the Leisure World Community there are both residential cooperative and condominiums. Because Leisure World exists as a community, each condominium and each cooperative benefits the same as any other condominium and cooperative, respectively, in Leisure World. The benefit units are computed as if all the condominiums lie on one "parcel" and all the cooperative units lie on one "parcel," then the computed benefit units are evenly distributed to the individual condominium or cooperative units. There are also certain private recreational facilities within Leisure World (Zone 3), such as libraries and clubhouses, which are accessible only by the Leisure World residents. Such facilities are assumed to receive no arterial benefit and therefore are not assessed. Zone 5 Nonresidential parcels were assigned comparable units on the basis of whether they had nominal, moderate or high traffic circulation benefits and whether their operations were primarily daytime, nighttime or a combination. Furthermore, the nonresidential parcels were compared to the single - family residential parcels to determine the traffic circulation benefit for the nominal, moderate, and high classifications of nonresidential uses. Each nonresidential parcel was determined to be in one of the following categories: Nominal - Daytime Use Only (ND) • Office Buildings • Professional Buildings • Auto Repair Shops MuniFinancial 12 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 • Churches • Nurseries • Commercial and Industrial Parking Lots Moderate - Daytime Use Only (MD) • Banks • Savings and Loans • Stores High - Daytime Use Only (HD) Restaurants (not open in evenings) Nominal - Day and Night Use (NN) • Commercial Parking Lots (if used in conjunction with nighttime establishments) Moderate - Day and Night Use (MN) • Service Stations • Recreational Vehicle Facilities • Clubs and Lodge Halls • Markets • Theaters • Motels • Shopping Centers including Parking Lots High - Day and Night Use (HN) • Restaurants (open in evenings) • Hospitals • Convalescent Homes • Amusement Facilities MuniFinancial 13 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No. 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Daytime Use Only Those nonresidential land uses classified as Nominal- Daytime Use Only (ND) were only found to benefit from the lighting improvements slightly less than the single - family parcels because the majority of the traffic circulation occurs during daylight hours. Therefore, ND traffic circulation benefits for nonresidential lots or parcels are two- thirds that of a single - family residential lot or parcel. Moderate and High - Daytime Use Only (MD and HD, respectively) traffic circulation land uses benefit more from the lighting improvements because of their increased opportunity to use nighttime lighting and are assigned one and one -third that of a single - family residential lot or parcel and two times that of a single - family residential lot or parcel, respectively. As such, those lots or parcels determined to have nominal, moderate or high traffic circulation benefits as well as daytime operation (ND, MD, HD) were assessed two- thirds, one and one- third, and two times, respectively, that of an equivalent single - family residential lot or parcel. Day and Night Use Because of the substantially greater benefit of uses which have nighttime traffic circulation, nonresidential lots or parcels categorized as Nominal -Day and Night Use (NN) are two times that of a single - family residential or lot parcel, Moderate -Day and Night Use (MN) traffic circulation benefits are four times that of a single - family residential lot or parcel and High -Day and Night Use (HN) nighttime traffic circulation benefits are six times that of a single - family residential lot or parcel. Therefore, those parcels determined to have nominal, moderate or high traffic circulation benefits as well as nighttime operation (NN, MN, HN) were assessed two, four, and six times, respectively, that of an equivalent single - family residential lot or parcel. Since the sizes of the nonresidential lots or parcels vary considerably, it was determined that the area of each nonresidential lot or parcel would also be used in determining the benefit received by each parcel. For this purpose, the size of an average single - family lot or parcel was determined to be 5,000 square feet. MuniFinancial 14 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 Consequently, the benefit received by each nonresidential lot or parcel is computed as follows: Nominal - Daytime Use Only (ND) 0.67 units per 5,000 ft' of lot or parcel area Moderate - Daytime Use Only (MD) 1.33 units per 5,000 ft' of lot or parcel area High - Daytime Use Only (HD) 2.00 units per 5,000 ft' of lot or parcel area Nominal - Day and Night Use (NN) 2.00 units per 5,000 it' of lot or parcel area Moderate - Day and Night Use (MN) 4.00 units per 5,000 ft' of lot or parcel area High - Day and Night Use (HN) 6.00 units per 5,000 ft' of lot or parcel area MuniFinancial 15 City of Seal Beach Street Lighting District No 1 — Fiscal Year 2002/2003 ENGINEER'S REPORT ANNUAL LEVY OF ASSESSMENT STREET LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 1 CITY OF SEAL BEACH ASSESSMENT DIAGRAM AND ROLL The Boundary Map and Diagram showing the boundaries of the District and Zones of benefit is on file in the offices of the City Engineer and the City Clerk of the City of Seal Beach where it is available for public inspection and is incorporated herein by reference.
