This Lighting District, utilizing direct benefit assessments, finances and cost of providing maintenance and operation of public street lighting facilities within the City. The District contains all the territory within the boundaries of the City of Poway. FINDINGS The City Council of the City of Poway on May 12, 1986, initially fo~med the Poway City Street Lighting District and confirmed assessments for the first fiscal years, 1986-87 and 1987-88. This report covers the levy of the annual assessments for the 1988-89 fiscal year and provides for annexations of additional City area into the Lighting District. The public street lighting system in the Lighting District is both San Diego Gas and Electric-owned and City-owned and will consist of approximately 1,733 lights, as shown below: -1- - "EXHIBIT B" !

Sodium Vapor of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of Assessment Districts by Cities for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include maintenance and operation of street lights. The 1972 Act requires that maintenance assessments be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. Section 22573 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 along all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefit to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements. -2- "EXHIBIT B" Resolution No. 88-030 Page 6 The Act also permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (S & H S 22574). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The 1972 Act provides that the total cost can be recovered in the assessment spread including incidental expenses. The latter can include engineering fees, legal fees, printing, mailing, postage, publishing and all other costs identified with the district proceedings. The 1988-89 fiscal year expenditures for street lighting are estimated as follows: Street Liqht Enerqy and Maintenance Costs Operations and Maintenance Energy Costs SUBTO'I'AL $ 48,000.00 209,800.00 $257,800.00 City Incidental Cost~ City Administration EDP Processing (County of San Diego) Consultant Engineering SUBTOTAL TOTAL COSTS Revenues Assessments Fiscal Year 1988-89 Ad Valorem Tax $ 19,000.00 1,000.00 10,000.00 $ 30,000.00 -3- $257,800.00 $ 30,000.00 $287,800.00 $197,800.00 90,000.00 $287,800.00 -- "EXHIBIT B" Resolution No. 88-030 Page 7 ENGINEERING ANALYSIS Name The District is entitled "Poway City Lighting District" Boundary The boundaries of the proposed assessment district are as shown on the Assessment Diagram. (See Attachment A.) All parcels identified in the latest San Diego County Assessor's Parcel Maps within the City are included in the district excepting from the assessment of said costs and expenses within the area described, the area of public roadways, alleys, greenbelts and parkways and property being used for public purposes. The property lines and dimensions of each lot or parcel of land within the Lighting District is 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. Facilities The facilities or improvements are defined as street light standards, their appurtenances, energy and maintenance costs to operate them. BENEFIT ANALYSIS There are approximately 13,050 District, and two benefit zones established as follows: parcels of property in the for assessment purposes are -4- "EXHIBIT B" ZONE A: Resolution No. 88-0 30 Page 8 Those parcels that are directly serviced by public street lights or by lights in the immediate vicinity and therefore receive direct benefit. ZONE B: Those parcels that do not receive direct benefit due to the absence of public street lights in the immediate vicinity of the parcel The benefits of street lighting accrue as community benefits and as individual or service benefits. Community benefits are defined as those common to all persons holding and/or using real property as they use public streets and pedestrian ways for access throughout the lighted areas of the City of Poway. Individual or service benefits, are defined as those particular to a person holding and/or using a real property parcel that is directly serviced by street lighting at, or in the immediate vicinity of the parcel. Therefore, those parcels in Zone A are assessed for both community benefits and individual benefits whereas those parcels in Zone B are assessed only as a community benefit. The methodology for the benefit assessment for the Poway Street Lighting District is consistent with the benefit structure currently applied to those areas of the city of Poway now serviced under the County of San Diego Street Lighting District. This structure is based on the determination that the benefits of street lighting for each real property parcel are a function of -5- "EXHIBIT B" Resolution No. 88-0 30 Page 9 the traffic generated by the use of that 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 all land use categories as defined in Attachment 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 10.1 trips per dwelling unit, or 36.4 trips per acre. Traffic generation rates by land use are as prepared by the San Diego Association of Governments and CALTRANS, District 11, based on trip generation studies done in the San Diego region and are presently being used by the County Lighting District to calculate these assessments. The derivation of benefit factors for all land use categories other than single family residential follows. All factors above 0.5 are rounded to the nearest whole number.

Vacant land was assigned a 0.0 land use factor. Benefit factors for all land use categories, as derived above, are tabulated in Attachment C. 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. Approximately one-third of all parcels in the City of Poway do not, however, receive service benefits. An adjustment in base benefit units, then must be made to reflect community benefits -9- "EXHIBIT B" Resolution No. 88-0 30 Page 13 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 of 0.25 is applied to the benefit factors for all developed parcels not directly serviced by street lighting. The adjusted benefit factors then are extended as noted above. Vacant parcels are not assessed. 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 Attachment D. Based upon the previous discussion, it is proposed in Fiscal Year 1988-1989, that the base benefit charge be $15.00. Thus, for community benefits, $3.75 will be charged and for service benefits, $11.25. 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. -10- ''EXHIBIT B" Resolution No. 88-030 Page 14 ATTACHMENT A POWAY CITY LIGHTING DISTRICT BOUNDARY MAP Available at: Public Works Department CITY OF POWAY 13325 Civic Center Drive Poway, California 92064 "EXHIBIT B" Resolution No. 88-030 Page 15 ATTACH24ENT B LAND USE CODES RESIDENTIAL IRRIGATED FARM 09 mobilehome 10 vacant residential 51 11 single family residence 52 12 duplex or double 53 13 multiple 2 to 4 units or 2 houses 54 14 multiple 5 to 30 units 15 multiple 31 to 60 units 16 multiple 61 units and up 17 condominium 18 co-op 19 miscellaneous 50 vacant (water available) citrus avocados vines misc. 55 livestock 56 poultry 57 misc. irrigated crops 58 growing houses 59 special or misc.
