q[IR°RN�P CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: November 15, 2006 PUBLIC HEARING
SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Annex Territory to Community Facilities District No.
2005-1 (Public Safety Services)
FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager
BY: Assistant City Manager, Administrative Services
SUMMARY
On October 4, 2006, the City Council adopted resolutions declaring its intention and
setting a public hearing to consider the annexation of certain territory into Community
Facilities District No. 2005-1 (Public Safety Services) that was established last year to

5. Adopt Resolution No. "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS,

6. Waive the reading of the Ordinance text in its entirety and introduce by title only
Ordinance No. , "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS,
CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE LEVY OF A SPECIAL TAX WITHIN THE
CITY OF PALM SPRINGS COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2005-1
(PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES), ANNEXATION NO. 2." (EXHIBIT "D")
STAFF ANALYSIS:
In 1978 voters enacted Proposition 13, which limited the ability of local public agencies
to increase property taxes based on a property's assessed value. In 1982, the Mello-
Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Government Code §53311-53368.3) was
created to provide an alternate method of financing needed improvements and services.
Specifically, the Act allows any county, city, special district, school district or joint
powers of authority to establish a Community Facilities District (CFD), which allows for
the financing of public services and facilities. Basically, the Act allows communities to
raise funds for improvements to infrastructure (streets, sewers, storm drains) even
though Proposition 13 limits their ability to tax property. It also allows raising funds for
services, including public safety and maintenance of parks, streetlights, storm drains,
and landscaping, only to the extent of new growth.
In order to establish a CFD or annex territory to an existing CFD, it must be approved by
a two-thirds margin of qualified voters in the district. If there are fewer than twelve
registered voters within the district, the vote may be passed by the current property
owners. At the close of the legal proceedings, an established CFD has all the legal
privileges of a legally sanctioned government body.
On October 4, 2006, the City Council adopted a resolution declaring its intention to
annex territory to the existing CFD and authorizing the imposition of a special tax to
finance police services, fire protection and suppression services, and life safety
services. In addition, the City Council set November 15, 2006 as a public hearing to
receive public testimony and protests over the annexation of territory to the existing
CFD.
The proposed tax to be assessed is based upon a Fiscal Impact Analysis that was
prepared in 2005 by the City's consultant, MuniFinancial. This analysis indicates that
the tax rate needed to support public safety services is: (1) $350 per unit for Developed
Single-Family Residence; (2) $295 per unit for Developed Multi-Family Residence; (3)
$250 per lot for Entitled Property; and (4) $100 per parcel for Undeveloped Property_
I
City Council Staff Report
November 15, 2006 -- Page 3
Annexation of Territory to CFD 2005-1
which is less than of an acre and $500 per acre for all other Undeveloped Property.
The actual tax rate, method of apportionment and manner of collection of the special tax
is set forth in the attached Ordinance (Exhibit "D") authorizing the levy of the special tax.
Since the formation of the initial CFD, a number of residential developments have been
approved by the City and are currently under construction. These developments
include: The Murano (Tract 33933); 156@Tahquitz (Tract 33341); Terra Vita (Tract
33936) Alexander Vista Estates (Tract 30350); and Alexander Village II (Tract 33443).
Collectively these projects constitute a total of 364 residential units.
The City has received petitions from all six developments requesting that the City
Council begin the necessary proceedings to form Annexation No. 2. The City's
consultant has determined that there are less than twelve registered voters residing in
the eight developments that comprise the proposed CFD. As a result, an election by
property owners is all that is necessary. Each of the property owners in the proposed
CFD has been mailed a "Wavier and Consent Shortening Time Periods and Waving
Various Requirements for Conducting Mailed-Ballot Election and Waiving Notice and
Hearing with Respect to Changes to the Special Tax" form which has allowed the City to
waive all minimum time requirements relative to the formation of the CFD and informed
them of the increased maximum rate. The property owners have also received a special
election ballot for CFD, which allows them one vote per acre or portion thereof. These
ballots will be tabulated by the City Clerk at the public hearing.
Staff recommends that the City Council open the public hearing for the purpose of
receiving public testimony and property owner protests regarding the formation
Annexation No. 2 into CFD 2005-1 (Public Safety Services). Once the public hearing
has been closed, staff recommends that the City Council adopt the three resolutions
and introduce by title only an ordinance authorizing the levy of special taxes.
FISCAL IMPACT:
i Based on the total number of residential units within the five (5) developments identified
above, it is estimated that upon build-out the City will receive approximately $122,000 a
year in revenues for public safety services. The costs associated with this formation
can be recovered through the CFD funds once the District is established and the taxes
Ievied.
