BACKGROUND Prior to Fiscal Year 1998/99, streetlighting services in the City were provided by a special benefit district administered by the County of Los Angeles. The Santa Clarita area was included in two separate districts within the County Lighting Maintenance District. One district, CLMD 1867, is funded from ad valorem property tax revenue pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911, with the rate set by Proposition 13. The district that is now under the City's jurisdiction, Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1, was established and is funded by assessments levied pursuant to the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972. The City Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 boundary is attached as Exhibit "A." Each year the City Council must order an Engineer's Report detailing Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 and determine the necessary assessments to collect for the coming fiscal year. This report and the appropriate resolutions are then presented to the City Council at a regularly scheduled City Council meeting. It is at this meeting that a date is set for a public hearing on the proposed annual assessments. ORDERING PRELIMINARY ENGINEER'S REPORT FOR THE ANNUAL LEVY OF ASSESSMENTS FOR STREETLIGHT MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 1 June 13, 2000 — Page 2 The public hearing for this district is set for June 27, 2000. If the assessments are approved at the public hearing, they are then transferred to the County for placement on the County tax rolls. If the assessments are not approved at the public hearing, the City will lose the ability to place the assessment on the County tax rolls for Fiscal Year 2000/2001. The City will have to manually invoice all parcels within the district or not collect assessments for the coming year. Detailed revenue and expenditure information for the district is in the Annual Engineer's Report. In accordance with Proposition 218, "The Right to Vote on Taxes Act," any increase in the annual assessments requires that all affected property owners must vote on the new assessments. There will be no increases in the assessments for the district covered by the attached resolution for Fiscal Year 2000/2001; therefore, there will be no need to notify the property owners by mail. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS. 1. Do not approve the annual levy. 2. Other action as determined by City Council. FISCAL IMPACT The annual levy of assessments currently covers the expected expenses.

INTRODUCTION This Engineer's Report is prepared in compliance with the requirements of Article 4, Chapter 1, of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, (hereinafter referred to as the "Act") which is Part 2, Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code. Prior to Fiscal Year 1998/99, streetlighting services in the City were provided by a special benefit district administered by the County of Los Angeles. The Santa Clarita area was included in two separate districts under the County's jurisdiction. County Lighting District LLA -1 was formed on July 24, 1979 and was supplemented by the existing County Lighting Maintenance District (CLMD) 1867. Upon incorporation of the City of Santa Clarita in 1987, a Santa Clarita Zone was formed specifically for the area within the City's boundaries. County Lighting Maintenance District (CLMD) 1867 and County Lighting District LLA -1 are contiguous with each other and are wholly within the City's boundaries. However, County Lighting District LLA -1 covers a greater portion of the City. The District referred to as CLMD 1867 is funded from ad valorem property tax revenue pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911, with the rate set by Proposition 13. County Lighting District LLA -1 was established and is funded by assessments levied beginning in 1979 pursuant to the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 when new annexations to the County Lighting District could no longer collect ad valorem revenue. LLA -1 was established to cover the lights in the new annexation areas and to supplement the current ad valorem revenue. As of July 1, 1998, all streetlight districts are under the jurisdiction of the City as Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1(previously LLA -1) and No. 2 (previously CLMD 1867) respectively. It is now the City's responsibility to prepare and levy the annual assessments necessary to maintain the streetlights within the District. Upon the effective date of the transfer, the City assumed total responsibility for the District's maintenance contract under which Southern California Edison is providing the required services. Pursuant to the Act, the City Council is now the legislative body for the District and may levy annual assessments and act as the governing body for the operation and administration of the District. In future years, as territory is annexed into the City, annexation to the District will be a condition of annexation to the City. In addition, any new development will also be required to annex into the existing District. All new annexations will be annexed into Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1, under the 1972 Act. It is not clear at this time whether the City can collect ad valorem on any new annexations. 1 This report includes all annexations that have been approved by the Council prior to June 30, 2000. The Act provides for the levy of annual assessments after formation of an assessment district for the continued maintenance and servicing of the district improvements. The costs associated with the installation, maintenance, and service of the improvements may be assessed to those properties which are benefited by the installation, maintenance, and service. This report addresses only Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1. District No. 2, the ad valorem portion, is handled through the County Auditor and the State Board of Equalization and is not acted upon on by the City Council. RIGHT TO VOTE ON TAXES ACT (PROPOSITION 218) On November 5, 1996, the electorate approved Proposition 218, Right to Vote on Taxes Act, which added Articles XIII C and XIII D to the California Constitution. The Proposition affects all assessments upon real property for a special benefit conferred on the property. Assessments imposed under the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 are these types of benefit assessments. However, the Proposition also exempts any assessments imposed when the person(s) owning all of the property agree(s) to the assessment when it was originally imposed. The maintenance services in the Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 are for streetlighting. They are an integral part of the entire street, the same as curb, gutters, pavement, signage, and striping. Taken as a group, they are the elements that provide a safe route for motorists and pedestrians. Streetlights are installed to make streets safer. Streetlights are installed to provide better visibility for drivers. One hundred (100) percent of the illumination from the lights is directed to the street, ninety (90) percent on the street side of the curb and ten (10) percent behind the curb. The spacing of the lights is based on the speed of the vehicles and the natural ability of the motorists' eyes to adjust to light and dark areas. Each and every parcel included in the District was originally part of a development that was conditioned to install streetlight improvements before the development could proceed. Thereafter, each developer who was conditioned to enter into the District agreed to the inclusion of their property in the District along with the assessments being imposed on their property. Once the development was sold, all subsequent owners of parcels were also made aware through title reports and Department of Real Estate "White Paper" Reports that the parcels were in the District and subject to the assessments. Purchase of the parcel(s) was also an agreement by the new owners to be subject to the assessments. Article XIII D, Section 5(a), of the State Constitution, provides that 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, shall be considered exempt from the procedures and approval process set forth in Section 4 of Article XIII D. 2 Streetlights are installed on and are for street purposes. They are maintained and serviced to allow the street to perform to the standards it was designed. Assessments for the maintenance and servicing of streets must include streetlights and therefore, the assessments for Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 are exempt from the provisions of Proposition 218. This exemption applies only to assessments existing on the effective date of Proposition 218, November 6, 1996, and the exemption is only from the procedures and approval process set forth in Article XIII D, Section 4. Subsequent increases, if any, will be subject to the procedures and approval process of Section 4 of Article XIII D. This report is being provided to show no proposed increase in the assessment to pay for costs incurred for the maintenance, servicing, and operation of the District for Fiscal Year 2000/2001. The City may annually initiate proceedings for the continued maintenance and servicing of the improvements by passing a resolution which orders an engineer to prepare and file a detailed report generally describing any proposed new improvements or any substantial changes in existing improvements. The report prepared by the engineer must also include plans and specifications of any new improvements, an estimate of the costs of the new improvements, including maintenance and servicing of the new or existing improvements, a diagram, i.e., map of the assessment district showing the boundary of the District and the parcels or lots which benefit, and an estimate of costs of the improvements, maintenance, and servicing. Once the report is completed, it is presented to the City Council for its review and approval as presented, or may be modified and approved. After the report is approved, the City adopts a resolution of intention which declares its intent to levy and collect assessments, describes the improvements, including maintenance and servicing, refers to the District by its distinctive designation, refers to the report for the details of the District, and sets a time and place for a public hearing on the levy of the proposed assessments. Assessments, if authorized, would be placed on the 2000/2001 County Tax Roll, and would be collected with the regular county property taxes. Reserve funds would be used to fund the maintenance and service until assessment funds are distributed by the County Tax Collector in December of 2000. II. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 was established to collect funds to cover the expenses for energy and maintenance of a majority of streetlights in the City. These costs are billed by the Southern California Edison Company for all approximate 9,888 streetlights currently owned and maintained by Edison. The proposed new and/or existing improvements for Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 include, but are not limited to, and may be generally described as follows: The installation of streetlighting and appurtenant facilities are necessary for the daily operation of said lighting located within City road rights-of-way. Installation covers all work necessary for the installment or replacement of said lighting and all appurtenant work necessary to complete said installation or replacement. • The operation, maintenance, and servicing of all existing streetlighting and appurtenant facilities are necessary for the daily operation of said lighting located within City road rights-of-way. Operation, maintenance, and servicing means all work necessary for the daily maintenance required to maintain said lights in proper operation including providing said lights with the proper energy necessary to operate the lights. All improvements consisting of ornamental streetlights, mast arm streetlights and appurtenant facilities do exist at the present time. The cost associated with these improvements will be the cost of operations, maintenance and servicing during Fiscal Year 2000/2001. Plans and specifications for the improvements for the Streetlight Maintenance District are voluminous and are not bound in this report but by this reference are incorporated and made a part of this report. The plans and specifications are on file at the City where they are available for public inspection. Locations of all streetlights are included on lighting inventory maps available for inspection at the City. III. ESTIMATED COSTS OF THE IMPROVEMENTS The Act provides that the estimated costs of the improvements shall include the total cost of the improvements for Fiscal Year 2000/2001, including incidentals, which may include reserves to operate the District until funds are transmitted to the City from the County, around December 10 of the next fiscal year. The Act also provides that the amount of any surplus, deficit, or contribution be included in the estimated cost of improvements. The net amount to be assessed on the lots or parcels within each district is the total cost of installation, maintenance, and servicing with adjustments either positive or negative for reserves, surpluses, deficits, and/or contributions. Estimated costs of improvements for Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 are voluminous and are not bound in this report but by this reference are incorporated and made a part of this report. The estimated costs are on file at the City where they are available for public inspection. 4 ENGINEER'S REPORT CITY OF SANTA CLARITA STREETLIGHT MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 1 2000/2001 FISCAL YEAR BUDGET ESTIMATE The following information was received from the City's Budget Proposed 2000/2001 Budget Revenue Balance from previous fiscal year $1,800,000 Other Revenue (Ad Valorem) $1,120,000 To be raised from Assessments 115,000 Sub -Total $3,035,000 Expenditures Operation/Maintenance Expenses • Utility/Maintenance $1,705,000 • Professional/Attorney Services $ 40,000 • Administration/Special Equipment $ 55,000 Capital Improvements $ 400,000 Reserve 835,000 Sub -Total $3,035,000 Total Balance $ 0 In addition to revenue received from both ad valorem taxes and assessments, there is a balance in the account from money transferred from the County upon completion of the jurisdictional transfer. Six months reserve is set aside to cover expenses until such time as assessments received by the County Auditor/Controller are delivered to the City in December 2000. The remaining balance will be used for capital improvements to the District in the form of additional maintenance including upgrades and unrecoverable knockdowns not covered by Southern California Edison. 5 IV. ASSESSMENT DIAGRAM Boundary maps/diagrams for each of the areas within Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 are voluminous and are not bound in this report but by this reference are incorporated and made a part of this report. The boundary maps/diagrams are on file in the office of the City Clerk and the City Engineer where they are available for public inspection. V. ASSESSMENT All assessed lots or parcels of real property within the District are listed on the assessment roll. The assessment roll states the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District for Fiscal Year 2000/2001, shows the Fiscal Year 2000/2001 assessment upon each lot and parcel within the District, and describes each assessable lot or parcel of land within the District. These lots and parcels are more particularly described in the assessment roll, which is on file in the office of the City Clerk and by reference is made a part of this report. Assessments for any annexation to the existing Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 may include an increase based on the current Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Los Angeles — San Bernardino County area as approved by property owners during the annexation process. VI. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT BACKGROUND The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (the Act) provides that assessments may be apportioned upon all assessable lots or parcels of land within an assessment District in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the improvements. In addition, the Act requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. The Act provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. A special benefit is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on the public at large, including real property within the District. The general enhancement of property value does not constitute a special benefit. SPECIAL BENEFIT The City, in determining the necessity of forming Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1, took into account the cost of providing services to the residents, businesses and properties located within the entire City. Each and every parcel within the District receives a particular and distinct benefit from the improvements over and above general benefits conferred by the improvements. All of the improvements were conditions of approval for the creation or development of the parcels. In order to create or develop the parcels, the City required the original developer to install, and guarantee the maintenance of, streetlighting and appurtenant facilities to serve the parcels. Therefore, each and every parcel within the District could not have been developed in the absence of the installation and promised maintenance of these facilities. The benefit provided by streetlighting consists of safety for pedestrians and motorists living and owning property in the District during the nighttime hours. This is a distinct and special benefit to all developed parcels in the District. Streetlighting is an integral part of "streets" as a "permanent public improvement". One of the principal purposes of fixed roadway lighting is to create a nighttime environment conducive to quick, accurate, and comfortable seeing for the user of the facility. These factors, if attained, combine to improve traffic safety and achieve efficient traffic movement. Fixed lighting can enable the motorist to see detail more distinctly and to react safely toward roadway and traffic conditions present on or near the roadway facility. Streets are constructed for the safe and convenient travel by vehicles and pedestrians. They also provide an area for underground and overhead utilities. Streetlights are installed on and are for street purposes and are maintained and serviced to allow the street to perform to the standards it was designed. Assessments for the maintenance and servicing of streets may include streetlights. Streetlights are considered an integral part of the entire street, the same as curb, gutters, pavement, signage, and striping. Taken as a group, they are the elements that provide a safe route for motorists and pedestrians. Streetlights are installed to make streets safer. Streetlights are installed to provide better visibility for drivers. One hundred (100) percent of the illumination from the lights is directed to the street, ninety (90) percent on the street side of the curb and ten (10) percent behind the curb. The spacing of the lights is based on the design speed of the street and the natural ability of the motorists' eyes to adjust to light and dark areas. The systems of streets within the District are established to provide access to each parcel in the District. Streetlights provide a safer street environment for owners of the parcels served. If the parcels were not subdivided to provide individual parcels to owners within the District, there would be no need for a system of streets with safety lighting. The City has determined that streetlights are also an integral part of the quality of life within the City. This quality of life is a special benefit to some degree to all parcels, except government owned parcels, including easements, and flood channel parcels. Therefore, the installation of streetlights is for the express, special benefit of the parcels within the District. Since each and every parcel within each of the existing zones receives a particular and distinct benefit from the improvements there is considered no general benefits conferred by the improvements to the public at large. APPORTIONMENT For Fiscal Year 2000/2001 Streetlight Maintenance District No. 1 will continue with the current rate schedule as used by Los Angeles County at the time of the transfer of jurisdiction. The Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972 indicates that lighting assessments may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes costs among all lots or parcels within the District in proportion to the estimated benefits received. The primary benefits of streetlighting are for the convenience, safety, and protection of people and to a lesser extent the security or protection or property, property improvements, and goods. The intensity or degree of illumination provided can have a bearing on both. The proposed assessment rate for Fiscal Year 2000/2001 is proposed to be $3.00 per Unit. This is not an increase in the rate previously implemented for Fiscal Year 1999/2000. The areas annexed after the Streetlight Maintenance District was transferred from Los Angeles County to the City will not be supplemented by ad valorem property tax revenue. Thus, the new annexed areas have been assessed at a higher rate than previously annexed areas. Approximately 14 annexations have occurred since the transfer of the Streetlight Maintenance District and each of the annexed areas were assessed at the maximum of $50.00 per equivalent unit. The following information is a method used to determine the per parcel unit count Intensity or degree of illumination provided on streets in the District varies with the type of street and the use of the property adjacent thereto. The cost of providing the highest recommended degree of illumination (used in commercial areas) is about four times the cost of providing the intensity recommended for the lowest category, which included residential properties. Based on land use information provided by the County Assessor, it has been determined that in the existing District over 93 percent of the parcels are in a residential category. Approximately 83 percent are single-family homes or condominiums and the remainder are duplexes, triplexes, or apartments. In view of this and the benefits derived by the family unit, both at and in the proximity of their property, a value of 1 has been assigned to the basic family unit, i.e., the single-family home or condominium. The existing District includes some properties that may not actually have streetlights in their block but which do receive a neighborhood benefit from the lights in the area. These properties were also included in the District. Therefore, a value of 1/2 was given to "people use" while "intensity" and "security benefit" were each rated at 1/4 to form the basic unit. Parcels in other land use categories were then rated by comparison with the basic unit. In the remainder of the residential category, which is comprised of multiple rental type properties, the value for intensity would remain at 1/4, but the other two items would increase in proportion to the number of family dwelling units on the parcel. For example, a duplex was assigned 1/4 for intensity, 1 for people use, and 1/2 for security benefit for a total of 1-3/4 units. The owner of such property would therefore pay 1-3/4 times as much for lighting as the owner of a single-family unit. In consideration of the distance some units would be from the lighted roadway, security benefits in this residential category would not be increased beyond a value of 1. Thus a 5 -unit apartment would be assigned 1/4 for intensity, 2-1/2 for people use, and 1 for security benefits for a total of 3-3/4 units. As the number of apartments on a parcel increases, the service charge units assigned for people would follow a declining scale as follows: Single -Family Home 1 Unit/Parcel 17 APARTMENT 21 through 50 apartments Units for 20 apartments plus 1/3 unit for each apartment over 20. For example: 20 apartments = 1/4 for intensity, 10 for people and 1 for security = 11-1/4 units For example: 50 apartments = (50-20)/3 = 10; 11-1/4 + 10 = 21-1/4 units per parcel 50 through 100 apartments Units for 50 apartments plus 1/4 unit for each apartment over 50. For example: 100 apartments = (100-50)/4 = 12-1/2; 21-1/4 + 12-1/2 = 33-3/4 units per parcel Over 100 Apartments Units for 100 apartments plus 1/5 unit for each apartment over 100 For example: 200 apartments = (200-100)/5 = 20; 33-3/4 + 20 = 53-3/4 units per parcel The remaining 7 percent of the lots or parcels within the City were separated into 38 land use categories as determined by the County Assessor and units were assigned on the basis of average benefits received as follows. Group A Rating Breakdown 1 unit (minimum charge for improved property) Total 1 unit Property Type 1. Irrigated farms 2. Dry farms 3. Cemeteries 4.

Mobile home parks Group K Properties within the 10 land use categories in this group varied widely from the norm and therefore, these lots or parcels were considered on an individual basis. Each of the parcels or lots in these land use categories was identified on the official lighting district maps and each streetlight or portion thereof in the immediate proximity of the lots or parcels benefiting the lots or parcels was assigned a number of units as identified below. The total number of units so determined for that category would be distributed among the lots or parcels in that category in proportion to the lot or parcel area as shown below. A minimum of 3 units would be assessed to each lot or parcel to be compatible with group D which contains many of the smaller business categories. Several large lots or parcels in outlying areas within the existing lighting district have no lights in the immediate proximity and, therefore, those lots or parcels would be assessed the minimum.
