OVERVIEW
A. INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the order of the City Council of the City of Poway ("City") and in compliance
with the requirements of Article 4 of Chapter 1 of the "Landscaping and Lighting Act of
1972" ("1972 Act"), being Part 2 of Division 15, Sections 22500 through 22679 of the
Streets and Highways Code of the State of California ("Assessment Law"), this report
presents the engineering analysis for Fiscal Year 2018/2019 of the district known as:
"Poway City Lighting District"
On May 12, 1986, the City Council of the City of Poway initially formed the Poway City
Street Lighting District ("District") under the California Streets and Highways Code,
Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. This Engineer's Annual Levy Report ("Report")
covers the levy of the annual assessments for Fiscal Year 2018/2019, and provides for
annexations of additional City areas into the District.
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts for the purpose of
providing certain public improvements, which include maintenance and operations of
street lights and related facilities, including but not limited to, traffic signals, lighted street
signs and flashing beacons. The 1972 Act requires that assessments be levied according
to benefit rather than according to assessed value.
Section 22573 of the 1972 Act provides 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."
The 1972 Act also permits the designation of zones of benefit for the classification of
various areas within an assessment district into different zones.
Section 22574 of the 1972 Act provides that:
"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 which will receive substantially the same degree of benefit
from the improvements."
B. IMPROVEMENTS AUTHORIZED BY THE 1972 ACT
As applicable or may be applicable to this District, the 1972 Act defines improvements to
mean one or any combination of the following:
• The installation or construction of public lighting facilities.
• The installation or construction of any facilities which are appurtenant to any of the
foregoing or which are necessary or convenient for the maintenance or servicing
thereof, including, but not limited to, grading, clearing, removal of debris, the
installation or construction of curbs, gutters, walls, sidewalks, or paving, or water,
irrigation, drainage, or electrical facilities.
• The maintenance or servicing, or both, of any of the foregoing.

• The acquisition of any existing improvement otherwise authorized pursuant to this
section.
Incidental expenses associated with the improvements including, but not limited to:
• The cost of preparation of the report, including plans, specifications, estimates,
diagram, and assessment;
• The costs of printing, advertising, and the publishing, posting and mailing of
notices;
• Compensation payable to the County for collection of assessments;
• Compensation of any engineer or attorney employed to render services;
• Any other expenses incidental to the construction, installation, or maintenance and
servicing of the improvements;
• Any expenses incidental to the issuance of bonds or notes pursuant to Section
22662.5.
• Costs associated with any elections held for the approval of a new or increased
assessment.
The 1972 Act defines "maintain" or "maintenance" to mean furnishing of services and
materials for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of any
improvement, including:
• Repair, removal, or replacement of all or any part of any improvement.
• Providing for the life, growth, health, and beauty of landscaping, including
cultivation, irrigation, trimming, spraying, fertilizing, or treating for disease or injury.
• The removal of trimmings, rubbish, debris, and other solid waste.
• The cleaning, sandblasting, and painting of walls and other improvements to
remove or cover graffiti.
C. COMPLIANCE WITH CURRENT LEGISLATION
In November 1996 voters of the State of California passed Proposition 218,which added
Article XIIID to the California Constitution that established specific requirements for
assessments. Article XIIID required that all assessments comply with stated provisions
by July 1, 1997, unless an assessment district meets certain exemptions. The
exemptions from substantive and procedural requirements are set forth in Section 5 of
Article XIIID 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."
'(b) Any assessment imposed pursuant to a petition signed by the persons owning
all of the parcels subject to the assessment at the time the assessment is initially
imposed. Subsequent increases in such assessments shall be subject to the
procedures and approval process set forth in Section 4."

Resolution 18-032
Page 8
W I LLDAN
FINANCIAL SERVICES
Under the provisions of Section 5 of Article XIIID, the existing assessments in the
District are exempt from both the substantive and procedural requirements outlined
in Section 4 of the Article, until such time the assessments are increased.
D. MAXIMUM ASSESSMENT RATE
The approved maximum assessment rates for the District zones are $15.00 per benefit
unit for Zone A, $3.75 per benefit unit for Zone B and $13.58 per benefit unit for Zone
C. The District currently has no approved escalation factor for increasing the maximum
assessment rates. The maximum assessment rate establishes an approved upper limit
on the annual assessment; however, the assessment rate levied by the District may be
less than the maximum amount in any given year if not required to meet the budgetary
needs for that year. If the long term budgetary needs of the District would require an
increase in the rate greater than the maximum assessment rate in order to meet those
needs, then any proposed increase in the maximum assessment rate would require
property owner balloting procedures as dictated by Article XIIID.
It BOUNDARIES OF DISTRICT
The boundaries of the Assessment District are shown on the Assessment Diagram (see
Appendix A). All parcels identified on the latest San Diego County Assessor's maps
within the City of Poway are included in the District. However, public properties such as
roadways, alleys, greenbelts, parkways, and other public properties are exempt from the
assessment.
The property lines and dimensions of each lot or parcel of land within the Lighting District
are shown in detail on the County of San Diego Assessor's maps, on file in the County
Assessor's Office, 1600 Pacific Highway, Room 103, San Diego, CA 92101.
III DEFINITIONS
The following definitions were written for clarification as a key to understanding the
assessments levied against parcels and derivation of benefits:
"Facilities" shall mean street light standards, traffic signals, flashing beacons, their
appurtenances, or related improvements, and the energy and maintenance costs to
operate them.
"Gated Community" shall mean a community that restricts the general public from
routine access to streets and roads vacated by the City to the community, but where
utility easements have been retained by the City.
"Immediate Vicinity" (based on the City's illumination spacing standards) shall mean:
(1) All parcels within subdivisions/commercial/industrial developments that have
street lighting improvements as a condition of development.
(2) All single-family residential parcels having street lighting on their street, at cul-
de-sacs, major curves, and/or intersections.

FINANCIAL SERVICES
(3) All multi-residential, commercial, and industrial parcels having street lighting
spaced within 300 feet (except where there are placement limitations, the spacing
will not exceed 400 feet).
"Sub-Zone" shall mean those parcels which can be administratively separated from a
zone to equitably fund the actual cost of maintenance and operation specific to the needs
of those parcels.
"Utilities Easement" shall mean right-of-access retained by the City and other public
utilities for the purpose of maintaining and operating public utilities including, but not
limited to, water, sewer, storm drain, street lighting, electrical, telephone, and cable TV
services.
'Vacant Parcel" shall mean any parcel that has not been developed with a structure that
is intended for habitation, storage, business, industry, or other like use, and has not been
designated for farming or rural land use.
Although the benefit to parcel rate structure used for this report is the latest San Diego
Association of Governments (SANDAG) traffic generation study, the above definitions
will assist in re-evaluating benefit for future assessments.

VI METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT
A. Proposition 218 Benefit Analysis
In conjunction with the provisions of the 1972 Act,the California Constitution Article XIIID
addresses several key criteria for the levy of assessments, notably:
Article XIIID Section 2d defines District as follows:
'District means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will
receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property-related
service";
Article XIIID Section 2i defines Special Benefit as follows:
"Special benefit" means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general
benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.
General enhancement of property value does not constitute "special benefit."
Article XIIID Section 4a defines proportional special benefit assessments as follows:
'An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which
will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment
will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel
shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public
improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement,
or the cost of the property related service being provided. No assessment shall be
imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional
special benefit conferred on that parcel."
This District was formed to establish and provide for the improvements that contribute
to public safety and traffic control for the surrounding properties and developments.
These improvements will directly benefit the parcels to be assessed within the District.
The assessments and method of apportionment is based on the premise that the
assessments will be used to construct and install lighting improvements within the
existing District as well as provide for the annual maintenance of those improvements,
and the assessment revenues generated by the District will be used solely for such
purposes.
Assessment Law mandates that the City assess for special benefit only, and the City
shall separate general benefit from special benefit. General benefit is defined as
services provided to the public-at-large. Special benefit is defined as services provided
at a level greater than the services provided to the public-at-large.
The costs of the proposed improvements have been identified and allocated to
properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements to be provided
by this District and for which properties will be assessed have been identified as an
essential component and local amenity that provides a direct reflection and extension of
the properties within the District which the property owners and residents have
expressed a high level of support.
The method of apportionment of assessment set forth in the Report is based on the
premise that each assessed property receives special benefits from the lighting
improvements within the District, and the assessment obligation for each parcel reflects
that parcel's proportional special benefits as compared to other properties that receive
special benefits.
20182019 Poway City Lighting District Page 7 of 15
Resolution 18-032
Page 13
II
WILLDAN
I A FINANCIAL SERVICES
To identify and determine the proportional special benefit to each parcel within the
District, it is necessary to consider the entire scope of the improvements provided as
well as the properties that benefit from those improvements. The improvements and the
associated costs described in this Report, have been carefully reviewed and have been
identified and allocated based on a benefit rationale and calculations that proportionally
allocate the net cost of only those improvements determined to be of special benefit to
properties within the District.The various public improvements and the associated costs
have been identified as either"general benefit" (not assessed) or"special benefit".
B. Zone Benefit Analysis
In Fiscal Year 1995/1996, it was determined that all "buildable" vacant parcels receive
some benefit from street lights and traffic signals. "Benefit" is derived from facility
improvements either by immediate vicinity street lighting and major arterial street lighting
[Zone A] or by major arterial street lighting [Zone B], and by a proportionate equitable
share of traffic signals, flashing beacons expense based on one unit per residential
parcel.The benefit for buildable vacant parcels is based on 50 percent of the appropriate
unit rate for each applicable zone.
At the writing of this report, 14,795 parcels have been identified as within the District
boundaries. It has been determined that all (except public-owned and unbuildable
miscellaneous) parcels (including vacant parcels), are assessable. Three benefit zones
for assessment purposes have been established as follows:
"Zone A" parcels are those that have street lighting within their immediate vicinity.These
parcels fund the maintenance and operation of immediate vicinity street lighting plus an
amount equivalent to"Zone B"assessments for the maintenance and operation of major
arterial street lighting. [This includes both "Service" and "Community" benefits].
"Zone B" parcels are those that equitably share the expense for the maintenance and
operation of major arterial street lighting. [This only includes "Community" benefits].
"Zone C" parcels are all parcels that equitably share the expense for the maintenance
and operation of traffic signals and flashing beacons.
As in previous years, the Fiscal Year 2018/2019 structure of the benefit assessments is
based on traffic generated by the use of the parcel. Benefit Units are then calculated for
each parcel, using a benefit factor derived from the land use/traffic generation functions.
Derivation of Benefit Factor
Benefit factors have been determined for those land use categories whose codes are
shown in Appendix B. A benefit factor of 1.0 is assigned to single family residential land
use.
Benefit factors for all other land use categories are then derived in proportion to land
use/traffic generation, as compared to the single-family residential traffic generation rate
of 10 trips per dwelling unit, or 40 trips per acre. Traffic generation rates by land use are
prepared by the SANDAG and CALTRANS, District 11, based on trip generation studies
done in the San Diego region. These are generally accepted for use by the San Diego
County Lighting District and other lighting districts throughout the County to calculate
2018/2019 Poway City Lighting District Page 8 of 15
Resolution 18-032

these assessments. Vacant land has been calculated at 50 percent of benefit based on
the parcel's designated land use.
The derivation of benefit factors for land use categories other than single-family
residential is provided in the examples listed below:

Calculation of Benefit Units
Benefit factors are extended to Benefit Units for assessment by multiplying the benefit
factor by the number of dwelling units per parcel or the acreage of the parcel as
appropriate. This base calculation is applicable to all parcels that accrue both community
benefits and service benefits. as previously defined. Benefit factors for all land use
categories. as derived above. are tabulated in Appendix C.
Approximately one-third of all parcels in the City of Poway do not. however, receive
service benefits. An adjustment in base Benefit Units for Zones A and B must then be
made to reflect community benefits only. For this purpose, it is assumed that one-fourth
of total benefits accrue as community benefits and three-fourths accrue as service
benefits. Therefore. a community benefit factor of 0.25 is applied to the benefit factors
for all developed parcels not directly serviced by street lights. The adjusted benefit
factors are then extended as noted above.
Based upon the previous discussion. it is proposed in Fiscal Year 2018/2019. that the
base benefit charge be $15.00 for Zone A. Thus. charges for community benefits and
for service benefits will be $3.75 and $11.25 per Benefit Unit. respectively. In summary.
those parcels in Zone A will be assessed at $15.00 per Benefit Unit and those parcels
in Zone B will be assessed at $3.75 per Benefit Unit.
Zone C assessments are based on equal service benefits. Therefore. Zone C will be
assessed $13.58 per Benefit Unit.
Using current available data from the San Diego County Assessor. an estimate of
aggregate Benefit Units by zone has been computed using the described method. These
estimates are tabulated in the table below.
Category Zone A Zone B Zone C
Estimated Benefit Units 22.105 3,432 25.537
Estimated Assessed Parcels 11,719 3 076 14,795
Note Estimated Benefit Units are rounded up and multiplying times rate will not calculate exactly.
