ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 92-4
METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
Soledad Canyon Road is a required condition placed on nine developers, which will extend from Sand
Canyon Road east to Shadow Pines Boulevard. The costs and incidental expenses to improve Soledad
Canyon Road will be spread throughout the developments according to their benefit received.
The total costs of construction for Soledad Canyon Road will be separated into two zones for
reimbursement purposes: Zone A, the portion of construction from Sand Canyon Road to Oak Springs
Canyon Road and Zone B, the portion from Oak Springs Canyon Road to Shadow Pines Boulevard.
These costs will be placed under the Integrated Financing District to be paid through a reimbursement
process as the conditioned tracts develop.
The Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 provides that the costs and incidental expenses of a project be
assessed in proportion to the estimated "benefit" received by each of the lots or parcels of land within the
assessment district. The Act, however, does not provide a specific benefit formula, hence that
determination is made by the Assessment Engineer for consideration by the legislative body. The formula
used should be one that reflects benefit received by each parcel and results in the most equitable proration
of the costs to each of the lots or parcels within the assessment district.

To facilitate future assessment apportionments, each developer is assigned an assessment number in
groups. For example, when Tract 47324 develops, their revised number sequence will be 800 to 872.
In making the analysis, it was necessary to identify the benefits that the public improvements rendered to
the properties within the boundaries of the Assessment District and to determine that the properties
received a direct and special benefit distinguished from that of the general public. It was determined that
the improvements are necessary and required for the development of the properties within the Assessment
District. The properties within the District have been conditioned as a result of the development process to
establish a reimbursement mechanism to widen Soledad Canyon Road. For residential property, the
benefit to each property as a result of the widening of Soledad Canyon Road is the right for each property
owner to construct a specific number of dwelling units. The benefit to a property with twice as many units
would be to benefit twice as many future owners who would use Soledad Canyon Road. Therefore,
benefit is based on the number of units each developer is allowed to construct. For commercial property
the benefit to each property would be based on the number of vehicle trips generated by the development,
or the equivalent of 100 residential units per acre.
Since some properties were conditioned for the portion of Soledad Canyon Road from Sand Canyon Road
to Oak Springs Canyon Road, they will be in Zone A. Zone B, which will be from Oak Springs Canyon
to Shadow Pines Boulevard will only involve one development.
8/25/92 2
Those developers within Zone A which is largely undeveloped will be assessed on a per unit basis while
the single tract in Zone B will be assessed their portion of traffic volume of the developed area bounded by
Shadow Pines Boulevard, the Antelope Valley Freeway, Oak Springs Canyon Road and Sierra Highway.
Figures used to determine the costs of improvements were obtained from the engineer of work and reflect
costs at the time of the award of bid. The assessment engineer then reviewed the costs for completeness
and eligibility under the 1913 Act proceedings.
The assessments as placed on the parcels of land within this report will be subject to a 5% annual interest
rate. The cumulative interest rate adjustment shall not exceed 100 percent. These assessments will be
contingent upon the development of the land and will be made due and payable at the time of approval of a
final subdivision map as a whole or pro -rated on a basis of units (phased) recordation.
Example: If a tract records phase one at 50%, then 50% of the assessment plus
interest at the time of recordation is due and payable.
Should any development fail to record their subdivision map, the subsequent assessment will remain with
the applicable parcel(s) until such time as a map does record. Any assessments not collected will not be
placed on the remaining parcels.
At the time when assessments become due and payable, it will be determined if there will be credit to the
developers bridge and thoroughfare fees. If it is determined that Soledad Canyon Road is no longer
covered under the B&T District, then there will be no credit. If Soledad Canyon Road is still covered with
B&T fees, a credit will be given to the development in the amount of the B&T fees which apply to Soledad
Canyon Road.
All residential development will be assessed based on their equivalent number of buildable units. All
commercial development will be assessed based on their equivalent traffic counts.
Residential equivalent units - 1 unit =1 Unit 996 Units = 996 units
Commercial equivalent units - 1 acre = 100 SFD units* 10 acres = 1.000 units
Total Zone A 1,996 units
One acre of commercial property generates an amount of vehicle trips per day equivalent to what
100 S.F.D. units generate per day.
The development in Zone B will be assessed 816 of 24,000 traffic units or an equivalent of 3.441% of the
improvement costs for Zone B.
The remainder of the improvement costs for Zone B will be covered by the City.

REGARDING INTEGRATED FINANCING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT N0. 92-4
(SOLEDAD CANYON)
This Agreement is entered into this _ day of November, 1992, by the CITY OF

tion for itself as investor and on behalf of the City of Santa Clarita Integrated Financing

of Santa Clarita" (the "Certificates") dated October 1, 1991, in the original principal amount

E. The City Council has determined that the public interest and convenience
require construction of the Improvements and proposes to proceed with construction of the

interest and is for the public benefit that the City seek full or partial payment or reimburse-
ment of certain lease payments related to the Certificates used for the Improvements from the

G. California Government Code Section 53190, gl =. authorizes the City, on
behalf of the District, to enter into a reimbursement agreement (the "Agreement") with an
investor for the purposes of obtaining advance funds from such investor to pay the costs of
the Improvements or to have such investor construct the Improvements. The City, through
the execution and delivery of the Certificates, will finance and construct the Improvements
and is hereby referred to in such capacity as the Investor.
H. The City Council previously adopted its Resolution No. 92- 210 authorizing

Section U. Investor to Construct Improvements.
A. The Investor shall with due diligence conduct, as soon as reasonably possible,
public bidding pursuant to the California Public Contracts Code and City Ordinances to select
a general contractor, land surveyor, soils engineer and other contractors necessary to
construct the Improvements. The Investor has already employed a civil engineer to design
the Improvements.
B. The Investor shall construct the Improvements pursuant to the Agency
Agreement dated 1992, and keep records of all costs and expenses in
connection with the design and construction of the Improvements (the "Costs and Expens-
es"). Costs and Expenses includes all out-of-pocket costs and all City administrative
expenses incurred in connection with the construction of the Improvements, including, but
not limited to, payments to civil engineers for plans and specifications for the Improvements,

and soils engineers, payments for street lights and utility relocation, City administrative
expenses for project management, insurance costs, bonding costs, plan check fees, inspection
fees, and costs of licenses and permits.
UM91711111r1.1_7nM, 11.11-

2. The City is not liable to the Investor for any reimbursement set
forth in Paragraph A of this Section, if the City fails for any
reason, including negligence, to impose the Assessments on the
Benefitted Property. Rather, the sole remedy of the Investor in
enforcing reimbursement is to participate in, challenge, and appeal,
if necessary, the imposition of conditions on the development
permit approvals of the Benefitted Property.
