BACKGROUND:
Similar to previous years, the City contracted with MuniFinancial to develop a proposal to
initiate an annual levy of assessments fur the Street Lighting Assessment District fur fiscal year
2006/07. 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 ofCalifurnia), the three resolutions
included on this agenda are required to initiate the levy process and must be passed in order to
schedule the date for Public Hearing. The Engineer's Report (prepared by MuniFinancial)
includes: 1) the plans and specifications fur the lighting improvements, 2) an estimate of the cost
fur the improvements, 3) a diagram of the assessment district, and 4) 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 fur the fiscal year referred to in the
assessment.
The assessment fur each parcel of property in the district is based upon the benefit derived from
street lighting. Total estimated costs fur providing street lighting for 2006/07 is $150,500, which
includes utility costs of $136,000, maintenance cost (removal, repairs, and replacements) of
$5,000, and assessment engineer costs of$9,500. The Reserve Fund is estimated to be $124,524
at the end of June 30, 2006. The Reserve Fund was originally established to provide sufficient
District Funds to cover six months of estimated District costs until receipt of the first installment
