INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Engineer's Report (hereinafter referred to as the "Report) is to set forth the engineering analysis and findings for the levy of assessments in the City of Palm Springs (hereinafter referred to as the "City") Parkway Maintenance District No.613 (hereinafter referred to as the "District"), for fiscal year 2004-05, in compliance with the requirements of Chapter 3, 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 and as provided by Article XIII D of the California Constitution (hereinafter referred to as "Article XIII D"). This District was formed to supplement certain City revenues and help finance the costs of providing for parkway maintenance within the District's boundaries. This report is prepared for the levy and collection of annual assessments for District for fiscal year 2004-05. The City initiates proceedings for annual levying of assessments within the District by passing a resolution, which states that the District was established under the Act. This resolution also describes the improvements, describes the name and location of the District, and preliminarily approves the Engineer's Report. The report prepared by the engineer must include an estimate of the costs of the ' improvements, a diagram, i.e., map of the District showing the boundary of the District and an assessment of the estimated costs of the improvements against the parcels or lots which benefit from the improvements. Once the report is completed it is presented to the City Council for its review and approval as presented, or it may be modified and approved. After the report is approved, the City Council may adopt a Resolution of Intention, which declares its intent to levy and collect assessments, describes the improvements, and refers to the report for details of the District. The Resolution of Intention also sets a time and place for a hearing on the proposed assessments. In addition to the Act, in accordance with Article XIII D, any new or increased assessments must be approved by Assessment Ballots mailed to the property owners of the parcels assessed no later than 45 days prior to the public hearing. Approval will be determined by weighing the ballots according to the proportional obligation of the affected property in the district. At the time of the public hearing, Assessment Ballots will be tallied and this information will be combined with the Engineer's Report for the District for approval prior to submitting assessments to the County Auditor/Controller. B. OVERVIEW The District described in this report contains parcels of land within the residential tract commonly referred to as Parkside Estates (Mesquite Avenue and Avenida Evelita Area). ' The City proposes to annually levy and collect special assessments to continue the maintenance of the improvements within the proposed District. Assessments within the District are proposed to be levied annually, pursuant to the Landscape and Lighting Act f City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B- Engineer's Report age 1 City of Palm Springs-Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B, Parkside Estates 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (the "1972 Act") and in compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of the California State Constitution Article XIIIC and XIIID ("Proposition 218"). The assessments described in this Engineer's Report (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") shall be levied upon each parcel within the boundaries of the District and assessments shall be proportional to the special benefit received from the maintenance of the improvements. For the District, a benefit assessment rate per parcel is established based upon estimated and actual operations and maintenance costs for the year. This establishes the maximum approved benefit assessment rate ("Maximum Rate") for the current year. Commencing with fiscal year 2005-06, and then each subsequent year, the maximum assessment rate is proposed to be increased based upon the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, for the Los Angeles-Orange-Riverside County Area ("CPI"), as determined by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, or its successor. The Engineer shall compute the percentage difference between the CPI for February of each year and the CPI for the previous February, and shall then adjust the maximum existing assessment by an amount not to exceed such percentage for the following fiscal year. Should the Bureau of Labor Statistics revise such index or discontinue the preparation of such index, the Engineer shall use the revised index or a comparable system as approved by the City Council for determining fluctuations in the cost of living. This Report describes the District and the proposed assessments for fiscal year 2004-05. The annual budget for the maintenance and operation of the improvements is based on estimated expenses for the upcoming fiscal year. The word "parcel," for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessment Parcel Number by the Riverside County ("County") Assessor's Office. The Riverside County Auditor/Controller uses Assessment Parcel Numbers and specific Fund Numbers to identify on the tax roll properties assessed for special district benefit assessments. DESCRIPTION OF THE DISTRICT A. DESCRIPTION OF THE DISTRICT The Parkway Maintenance District No.613, Parkside Estates, is located within the boundaries of the City of Palm Springs, north of Mesquite Avenue and east of El Cielo Drive. The District includes 93 residential parcels. The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance and servicing of local street landscaping improvements installed in connection with development of properties within the District. This District will provide the financial mechanism (annual assessments) by which the ongoing operation and maintenance of these improvements will be funded. The District structure, proposed improvements, method of apportionment and assessments described in this Report are based on current development and improvement plans including all estimated direct expenditures, incidental expenses, and reserves associated with the maintenance and servicing of the improvements. B. DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS AND SERVICES ' The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance, operation and servicing of parkway improvements within the District. These improvements may include, but are not limited to, all materials, equipment, utilities, labor and appurtenant facilities related to those improvements. The proposed improvements installed as part of the development and to be City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B-Engineer's Report age 2 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 68, Parkside Estates maintained and funded entirely or partially through the District assessments generally ' include the following: • Maintenance of the landscaped parkway within the District. • All appurtenant facilities, equipment, materials and utilities related to the aforementioned improvements. The estimated annual cost to provide and maintain the improvements within the District shall be allocated to each property in proportion to the special benefits received. The Method of Apportionment described in this Report utilizes commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and has been established pursuant to the 1972 Act and the provisions of Proposition 218. Improvements and Services Permitted Pursuant to the 1972 Act As generally defined by the 1972 Act and applicable to this District, improvements and the associated assessments may include one or more of the following: 1) The installation or planting of landscaping; 2) The installation or construction of statuary, fountains, and other ornamental structures and facilities; 3) The installation or construction of public lighting facilities including, but not limited to, street lights and traffic signals; 4) The installation of park or recreational improvements including, but not limited to, all of ' the following: a) Land preparation, such as grading, leveling, cutting and filling, sod, landscaping, irrigation systems, sidewalks, and drainage; b) Lights, playground equipment, play courts, and public restrooms; c) The acquisition of land for park, recreational, or open-space purposes; 5) 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; 6) The acquisition of any associated existing improvement; 7) The maintenance or servicing of any of the foregoing including the furnishing of services and materials for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of any improvement including, but not limited to: a) Repair, removal, or replacement of all or any part of any improvements; b) Grading, clearing, removal of debris, the installation or construction of curbs, gutters, walls, sidewalks, or paving, or water, irrigation, drainage, or electrical facilities; c) Providing for the life, growth, health, and beauty of landscaping, including cultivation, irrigation, trimming, spraying, fertilizing, or treating for disease or injury; d) The removal of trimmings, rubbish, debris, and other solid waste; e) The cleaning, sandblasting, and painting of walls and other improvements to remove or cover graffiti; f) Electric current or energy, gas, or other illuminating agent for any public lighting facilities or for the lighting or operation of any other improvements; City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 68- Engineer's Report Page 3 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B, Parkside Estates ' g) Water for the irrigation of any landscaping, the operation of any fountains, or the maintenance of any other improvements; 8) Incidental expenses associated with the improvements including, but not limited to: a) The cost of preparation of the report, including plans, specifications, estimates, diagram, and assessment; b) The costs of printing, advertising, and the publishing, posting and mailing of notices; c) Compensation payable to the County for collection of assessments; d) Compensation of any engineer or attorney employed to render services; e) Any other expenses incidental to the construction, installation, or maintenance and servicing of the improvements; and, f) Costs associated with any elections held for the approval of a new or increased assessment. Landscaping Improvements The parkway improvements may include, but are not limited to, all landscaping material and facilities within the District. These improvements include ground cover, shrubs, trees, plants, irrigation and drainage systems, ornamental lighting structures, and associated appurtenant facilities located within the District. ' ❑ METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT A. GENERAL The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements, which include the construction, maintenance, and servicing of public lights, landscaping, parks, open space areas and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value: "The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district or 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 formula used for calculating assessments reflects the composition of the parcels and the improvements and services provided within the District to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel. In addition, Article XIII D requires that a parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Article XIII D provides that only special benefits are assessable and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits. ' B. BENEFIT ANALYSIS All improvements associated with this District have been identified as necessary, required and/or desired for the properties within the District to their full potential, consistent with the development plans. As such, these improvements would be necessary and required of individual property owners for the development of such properties, and the ongoing operation, servicing and maintenance of these improvements would be the financial City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B- Engineer's Report Page 71 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B, Parkside Estates obligation of those properties. Therefore, the improvements and the annual costs of , maintenance and operation of the improvements are of direct and special benefit to the properties. The method of apportionment (method of assessment) is based on the premise that each assessed parcel within the District receives benefit from the improvements. The special benefits associated with all parkway improvements are specifically: • Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements; • Improved aesthetic appeal of properties providing a positive representation of the area; • Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space, open space areas and landscaping; • Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, dust and debris control, and fire prevention; • Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well- maintained improvements associated with the properties; and • Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation and attenuating noise. All of the preceding special benefits contribute to a specific enhancement and desirability of each of the assessed parcels within the District. Although the improvements may include landscaping improvements and other amenities available or visible to the public at large, the ' maintenance of these improvements is only necessary for the properties within the District and are not required nor necessarily desired by any properties or developments outside the District boundary. Therefore, any public access or use of the improvements by others is incidental and there is no measurable general benefit to properties outside the District or to the public at large. C. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY The method of apportionment for the District calculates the receipt of special benefit from the respective improvements based on the actual land use of the parcels within the District. The special benefit received by each lot or parcel is equated to the overall land use of the parcel based on the parcel's actual land use or proposed planned development, and is reliant upon the special benefit received from the improvements planned within the District. To identify and determine the special benefit to be received by each parcel, it is necessary to consider the entire scope of the District improvements as well as individual property development within the District. The costs associated with the improvements shall be fairly distributed among the parcels based upon the special benefit received by each parcel. The maintenance and operation of the landscaping improvements provides special benefit to all parcels within the District adjacent to the improvements. Therefore, 100% of the costs will be apportioned to each parcel on a single-family residential unit basis. All lots are assessed the same amount as each is a single-family lot and receives equivalent benefit. D. ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA ' Any new or increased assessment requires certain noticing and meeting requirements by law. Prior to the passage of Proposition 218 (California Constitution Articles XIIIC and XIIID), legislative changes in the Brown Act defined a "new or increased assessment" to exclude certain conditions. These conditions included "any assessment that does not exceed an assessment formula or range of assessments previously adopted by the agency or 0 0 it IN City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B-Engineer's Report + City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B, Parkside Estates ' approved by the voters in the area where the assessment is imposed." This definition and conditions were later confirmed through Senate Bill 919 (Proposition 218 implementing legislation). The purpose of establishing an Assessment Range Formula is to provide for reasonable increases and inflationary adjustment to annual assessments without requiring costly noticing and mailing procedures, which could add to the District costs and assessments. This District provides for an annual adjustment to the Maximum Assessment Rate based upon the Consumer Price Index for the Los Angeles-Orange-Riverside County Area, The Assessment Range Formula shall be applied to all future assessments within the District. Generally, if the proposed annual assessment for the current fiscal year is less than or equal to the calculated Maximum Assessment, then the proposed annual assessment is not considered an increased assessment. The Maximum Assessment is equal to the initial Assessment (approved by properly owners within the District) adjusted annually based upon the Consumer Price Index. Beginning in the second fiscal year (fiscal year 2005-06) and each fiscal year thereafter, the Maximum Assessment would be recalculated and a new Maximum Assessment established within the District. The Maximum Assessment is adjusted annually and is calculated independent of the District's annual budget and proposed annual assessment. Any proposed annual assessment less than or equal to this Maximum Assessment is not considered an increased assessment, even if the proposed assessment is greater than the assessment applied in the prior fiscal year. Although the Maximum Assessment will increase each year, the actual assessment may remain unchanged. The Maximum Assessment adjustment is designed to establish a reasonable limit on assessments. The Maximum Assessment calculated each year does not require or facilitate an increase to the annual assessment and neither does it restrict assessments to the adjustment maximum amount. If the budget and assessment for the fiscal year do not require an increase, or the increase is less than the adjusted Maximum Assessment, then the required budget and assessment may be applied without additional property owner balloting. If the budget and assessments calculated requires an increase greater than the adjusted Maximum Assessment, then the assessment is considered an increased assessment and would be subject to balloting. ❑ DISTRICT BUDGET A. DESCRIPTION OF BUDGET ITEMS For the purpose of estimating costs for the maintenance and servicing, actual costs are used where possible. But where actual maintenance experience is lacking, cost estimates will be used to determine costs, as follows: Parkway maintenance: Includes maintenance labor, materials and equipment required to properly maintain the authorized improvements and services within the District. Water costs: The cost of irrigation water for the landscape to be maintained is based upon ' actual Desert Water Agency billings on public landscaped areas being maintained within the District. /Virg City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B-Engineer's Report Page 6 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 68, Parkside Estates Electrical energy costs: Energy costs included are those necessary for the operation of irrigation ' controls. Incidental costs: Costs for special items, such as costs of levying the assessments with the County Tax Collector, anticipated utility rate hikes, or other such costs, are determined individually. Another Incidental Cost is the expense of Assessment Engineering services. This includes costs of performing annual assessment engineering, determining existing or estimated costs, retaining of consultants, preparation of the Engineer's Report, and other related costs, such as publication of notices, mailings, etc. Another Incidental Cost is the County Assessor-Tax Collector's charge of $25 per County assessment account plus $0.20 per levied parcel, to place the assessments on the tax rolls. This charge will be distributed between the benefit Districts. Consumer Price Index Adjustment: Commencing with fiscal year 2005/2006, and then each subsequent year, the maximum assessment rate is proposed to be increased based upon the Consumer Price Index, All Urban Consumers, for the Los Angeles-Orange-Riverside County Area ("CPI"), as determined by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, or its Successor. The Engineer shall compute the percentage difference between the CPI for February of each year and the CPI for the previous February, and shall then adjust the maximum existing assessment by an amount not to exceed such percentage for the following fiscal year. Should the Bureau of Labor Statistics revise such index or discontinue the preparation of such index, the Engineer shall use the revised index or a comparable system as approved by the City Council for determining fluctuations in the cost of living. Miscellaneous:All cost estimates shall be rounded to the nearest dollar, except where specified differently above. The total amount to be levied on any parcel will be rounded to an even number to accommodate collection on the property tax bill in two equal installments. B.
