6/2/2004 - STAFF REPORTS (22)
DATE: June 2, 2004 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Public Works/City Engineer CITYWIDE LANDSCAPING & LIGHTING DISTRICTS, FISCAL YEAR 2004-2005 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the following actions: 1. Preliminarily approve and file in the office of the City Clerk the Engineer's Reports for Street Lighting Maintenance Districts 1 through 4, and Parkway Maintenance Districts 6A, 613, 6C, and 7 through 10; and 2. Adopt Resolutions of Intent to levy and collect assessments within Street Lighting Maintenance District 3, and Parkway Maintenance Districts 6A, 7, 9, and 10, and setting the Public Hearing therefore on July 21, 2004; and 3. Adopt Resolutions of Intent to conduct property owner balloting on the matter of increased assessments for Street Lighting Maintenance Districts 1, 2, and 4, and Parkway Maintenance Districts 613, 6C, and 8, and setting the Public Hearing therefore on July 21, 2004. SUMMARY: In accordance with the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California, the City is required to prepare Engineer's Reports on the annual costs to operate and maintain improvements within the City's various Lighting or Parkway Maintenance Districts. The City currently has eleven Maintenance Districts, out of which six Maintenance Districts have operation and maintenance costs exceeding the revenue generated by the maximum assessments allowable by law (as limited by Proposition 218). These six Maintenance Districts have over the past few years been supplemented by General Fund revenue to continue the required operation and maintenance of the improvements within those Maintenance Districts. In light of the City's current budget constraints, and the continuing fiscal impact the deficits within the six Maintenance Districts will have on the City now and in the future, staff is recommending the City Council proceed with the process to increase the maximum allowable assessment within each Maintenance District such that the previous deficits, as well as current operation and maintenance costs, are paid for in full by the properties assessed within the Districts, as intended when the Districts were formed, and not supplemented by General Fund revenue. Five of the Maintenance Districts have operation and maintenance costs that do not exceed the revenue generated by the maximum assessment allowable by law, and no increase in the established maximum assessment within those Maintenance Districts is proposed. BACKGROUND: There are currently eleven existing Annual Maintenance Districts in the City of Palm Springs: 1. Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 1 (Belardo Rd. Area -165 Properties) 2. Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 (McManus Drive -25 Properties) 3. Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 3 (Crossley Tract- 75 Properties) 4. Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4 (Eagle Way Area-43 Properties) 5. Parkway Maintenance District No. 6A (Fairport Development -23 Properties) 6. Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B (Parkside Estates -93 Properties) 7. Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C (Park Sonora Tract - 30 Properties) 8. Parkway Maintenance District No. 7 (Sunrise Norte Tract -53 Properties) 9. Parkway Maintenance District No. 8 (Vintage Palms Tract -64 Properties) 10. Parkway Maintenance District No. 9 (Flora Vista Tract - 77 Properties) 11. Parkway Maintenance District No. 10 (Mountain Gate —308 Properties) Nine (9) of the districts listed above, are under the"Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972" which require a Public Hearing every year. Lighting Districts No. 1 and 2 are under the "Street Lighting Act of 1931,"which require public hearing only every five (5) years. Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 3 and Parkway Maintenance Districts No. 6A, 7, 9 and 10 do not need changes on the previously approved maximum assessments. The assessment amounts for the Fiscal Year 2004-2005 have been estimated based on actual costs and projected costs, and are less than the maximum approved amounts. Street Lighting Maintenance Districts No. 1, 2 and 4,and Parkway Maintenance Districts No. 6B, 6C, and 8 are running deficits, the actual costs being higher than the maximum approved assessments, and the City is currently subsidizing the differences. In order to increase the assessments for these districts, a property owners' ballot procedure is necessary. SUMMARY OF THE ASSESSMENT BALLOT PROCEEDINGS: On November 5, 1996, California voters approved Proposition 218 56.5%to 43.5%.Among other things,this Constitutional amendment introduced a property owner ballot procedure for the approval of new or increased assessments. These proceedings relate and apply to the City of Palm Springs' desire to increase the annual assessments on many of the City's existing 1931 and 1972 Act Landscape and Lighting Districts. Assessments in California have long been subject to protest proceedings.These require City Councils to notify property owners of proposed assessments, and prohibit them from imposing the assessments if enough property owners protest. Proposition 218 takes that requirement two steps further by requiring that the City mail ballots and a Notice of Public Hearing to property owners and by prohibiting the assessments if enough property owners who return ballots weighted by the assessment amount protest. In order to increase the assessments, a minimum of two council meetings must be held in order to approve the proceedings. The first meeting referred to as the intent meeting, requires that the following resolutions be approved:A Resolution Initiating the Proceedings (initiate the formation and assessment increase process and preliminarily approving the Engineer's Report), and a Resolution of Intent(setting the public hearing and authorizing the ballot procedure.) A minimum of 45 days after the ballots have been mailed to the property owners, a Public Hearing is conducted. At the close of the public hearing the ballots are tabulated and the Council can move forward with the assessment increase if there is no property owner protest. DISTRICTS PROPOSED FOR INCREASED ASSESSMENTS (by ballot procedure): Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 1 (Belardo Area): The existing 36 year old lighting system in the district is failing and eventually will need total replacement, according to City electricians and an electrical consultant. The neighborhood has met with staff two times over the past year and a34L representative reports the property owners are not interested in anew system at this time. Because of the type and use of the system staff's ability to repair the lights is limited, the replacement option is not addressed in this report, and only the maintenance cost increase for FY 2004/05 is proposed for approval on this agenda. Maximum assessment: $9,027 approved in FY 1990/91 Estimated Costs for 2004/05: $23,107 Projected Deficit as of 6/30/2004: $26,253 The proposed assessment is $28,358 which includes deficit reimbursement in 5 years. The average cost will be $171.87 per parcel (Last FY: $54.38). If the property owners do not approve the new assessment, the City has the following options: 1) To continue the maintenance of the lighting district assessing the approved maximum, and subsidizing the difference; 2) Stop maintaining the Lighting District Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 (McManus Drive) Maximum assessment: $4,250 approved in FY 1991/92 Estimated Costs for 2004/05: $9,934 Projected Deficit as of 6/30/2004: $7,904 The proposed assessment is $11,515 which includes deficit reimbursement in 5 years. The average cost will be $442.89 per parcel (Last FY: $170.00). If the property owners do not approve the new assessment, the City has the following options: 1) To continue the maintenance of the lighting district assessing the approved maximum, and subsidizing the difference; 2) Stop maintaining the Lighting District. Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4 (Eagle Way Area) Maximum assessment: $1,129 approved in FY 1998/99 Estimated Costs for 2004/05: $6,041 Projected Deficit as of 6/30/2004: $8,076 The proposed assessment is $7,656 which includes deficit reimbursement in 5 years. The average cost will be $178.05 per parcel (Last FY: $26.26). If the property owners do not approve the new assessment, the City has the following options: 1) To continue the maintenance of the lighting district assessing the approved maximum, and subsidizing the difference; 2) Stop maintaining the Lighting District Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B (Parkside Estates) Maximum assessment: $1,818 approved in FY 1992/93 Estimated Costs for 2004/05: $6,697 Projected Deficit as of 6/30/2004: $5,406 The proposed assessment is $7,778 which includes deficit reimbursement in 5 years (average cost: $83.64 per parcel - Last FY: $19.55). If the property owners do not approve the new assessment, the City has the following options: 1) To continue the maintenance of the parkway district assessing the approved maximum, and subsidizing the difference; 2) Stop maintaining the parkway district. Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C (Park Sonora Tract) Maximum assessment: $8,262 approved in FY 1989/90 Estimated Costs for 2004/05: $13,825 Projected Deficit as of 6/30/2004: $20,018 The proposed assessment is $17,829 which includes deficit reimbursement in 5 years. The average cost will be $472.07 per parcel (Last FY: $275.40). 1 qA'5 If the property owners do not approve the new assessment, the City has the following options: 1) To continue the maintenance of the parkway district assessing the approved maximum, and subsidizing the difference; 2) To assess the approved maximum amount and reduce the parkway maintenance and irrigation costs by 64% in order to avoid subsidizing by the City (without deficit reimbursement). This will result in a less attractive appearance. 3) Stop maintaining the parkway district. Parkway Maintenance District No. 8 (Vintage Palms Tract) Maximum assessment: $11,657 approved in FY 1995/96 Estimated Costs for 2004/05: $24,548 Projected Deficit as of 6/30/2004: $21,846 The proposed assessment is $28,917 which includes deficit reimbursement in 5 years. The average cost will be$275.18 per parcel for 62 parcels (Last FY:$110.94) and $5,928 for two parcels ($2,390 last FY) If the property owners do not approve the new assessment, the City has the following options: 1) To continue the maintenance of the parkway district assessing the approved maximum, and subsidizing the difference; 2) To assess the approved maximum amount and reduce the parkway maintenance and irrigation costs by 75% in order to avoid subsidizing by the City (without deficit reimbursement). This will result in a less attractive appearance. 3) Stop maintaining the parkway district. The proposed assessments for all eleven maintenance districts are detailed in the attached Engineer's Reports for Fiscal Year 2004/05. The reports are prepared pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, (except for SLMD 1 &2-which are under the Street Lighting Act of 1931) and all maintenance districts are under Article XI I ID, Section 4 of the California Constitution (Proposition 218). General City Maintenance District Information: • All costs are balanced annually by comparing previous assessments to actual costs • All assessments are placed annually on the property owner tax rolls The City account numbers for tracking the eleven (11) maintenance district accounts are: Street Lighting Districts 1, 2, 3 and 4: 001-4301-(43600) (43610)( 43620) (43630) Parkway Districts 6A, 6B, 6C, 7, 8, 9 and 10: 001-2451-(43530)(43540)(43550) (43560) (43570) (43580) (43590).

Area EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. 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") Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 1, "Belardo Road Area", (hereinafter referred to as the "District"), for fiscal year 2004-2005, in compliance with the requirements of the Street Lighting Act of 1931 (hereinafter referred to as the "1931 Act") which is Part 2 of Division 14 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 the maintenance of certain public improvements including but not limited to street lighting, within the District's boundaries. This report is prepared for the levy and collection of annual assessments for the District for fiscal year 2004-2005. 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. 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. Lighting Maintenance District No.I- Engineer's Report Page 1 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No.1, Belardo Rd. Area B. OVERVIEW The District described in this report contains parcels of land within the area referred to as Belardo Rd. Area. The City proposes to annually levy and collect special assessments to continue the maintenance of the improvements within the District. Assessments within the District are proposed to be levied pursuant to the provisions of the Street Lighting Act of 1931, Division 14, Part 2 of the Streets and Highways Code. 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 District "Belardo Rd. Area" is located within the boundaries of the City of Palm Springs, west of Palm Canyon Drive and adjacent to or south of Tahquitz Canyon Way. The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance, operation and servicing of local street lighting improvements installed 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, method of apportionment and assessments described in this Report are based on existing improvement plans and estimated direct expenditures, incidental expenses, and reserves associated with the maintenance and servicing of the improvements. q14/y Lighting Maintenance District No.I- Engineer's Report Page 2 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No.1, Belardo Rd. Area B. DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS AND SERVICES The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance, operation and servicing of street lighting 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 improvements are installed and are to be maintained and funded entirely or partially through the District assessments and generally include the following: • Street lighting facilities located on Belardo Rd. Area; and • 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 used in this Report utilizes commonly accepted assessment engineering practices. Public Street Lighting Improvements The street lighting improvements may include, but are not limited to, electrical energy, lighting fixtures, poles, meters, conduits, electrical cable and associated appurtenant facilities associated with: • All street lighting within the Street Lighting Maintenance District No.1 — Belardo Rd. Area. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT A. GENERAL The method 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. A parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. 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 desired for properties within the District to their full potential, consistent with the City's General plan. The ongoing operation, servicing and maintenance of these improvements would be the financial obligation of the 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 desirability and security of properties is enhanced by the presence of street lighting in close proximity to those properties. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods. Specifically: • Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection; I �� Lighting Maintenance District No.1- Engineer's Report Page 3 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No.1, Belardo Rd. Area • Increased nighttime safety on roads and streets; • Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see; • Improved ingress and egress to property; • Reduced vandalism and other criminal act and damage to improvements or property; • Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss; and, 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 lighting 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 or proposed 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. Proper maintenance and operation of the street lighting system benefits all properties by enhancing overall safety, mitigating crime, alleviating the fear of crime, and enhancing pedestrian safety. The street lighting located on Belardo Rd. Area provides 100% special and direct benefit to all properties within the District. These lighting benefits are directly related to the positive enhancement of the area increasing property desirability. Therefore 100% of the costs of the lights will be apportioned to each parcel based on the parcel's size. 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 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. I q 12• Lighting Maintenance District No.I-Engineer's Report Page 4 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No.1, Belardo Rd. Area 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 property 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 the improvements are new, or where actual maintenance experience is lacking, cost estimates will be used to determine costs, as follows: Street light energy costs: The cost of energy is based on current Edison rates. Street light maintenance: Includes maintenance labor, materials and equipment required to properly maintain the authorized improvements and services within the District. 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. 1 704 13 Lighting Maintenance District No.1- Engineer's Report Page 5 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No.1, Belardo Rd. Area 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 Adiustment: 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 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.

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") Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2, "McManus Drive", (hereinafter referred to as the "District"), for fiscal year 2004-2005, in compliance with the requirements of the Street Lighting Act of 1931 (hereinafter referred to as the "1931 Act") which is Part 2 of Division 14 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 the maintenance of certain public improvements including but not limited to street lighting, within the District's boundaries. This report is prepared for the levy and collection of annual assessments for the District for fiscal year 2004-2005. 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. 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 area referred to as McManus Drive. City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 Page 1 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2, McManus Drive The City proposes to annually levy and collect special assessments to continue the maintenance of the improvements within the District. Assessments within the District are proposed to be levied pursuant to the provisions of the Street Lighting Act of 1931, Division 14, Part 2 of the Streets and Highways Code. 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 Dwelling Unit 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 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 DistrictR McManus Drive, is located within the boundaries of the City of Palm Springs, south of Alejo Road and east of Sunrise Way. The properties within the District include 25 single-family residential parcels. The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance, operation and servicing of local street lighting 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, method of apportionment and assessments described in this Report are based on existing improvement plans and 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 street lighting 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 1Cow �W— City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 Page 2 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2, McManus Drive to be maintained and funded entirely or partially through the District assessments generally include the following: • Street lighting facilities located in McManus Drive; and • 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 used in this Report utilizes commonly accepted assessment engineering practices. Public Street Lighting Improvements The street lighting improvements may include, but are not limited to, electrical energy, lighting fixtures, poles, meters, conduits, electrical cable and associated appurtenant facilities associated with: • All street lighting within the Street Lighting Maintenance District No.2 - McManus Drive. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT A. GENERAL The method 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. A parcel's assessment may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. 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 desired for the orderly development of the properties within the District to their full potential, consistent with the proposed 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 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 desirability and security of properties is enhanced by the presence of street lighting in close proximity to those properties. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods. Specifically: • Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection; • Increased nighttime safety on roads and streets; • Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see; City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 1/ Page 3 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2, McManus Drive Improved ingress and egress to property; • Reduced vandalism and other criminal act and damage to improvements or property; • Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss; and, 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 lighting 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, and is reliant upon the special benefit received from the improvements 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. Proper maintenance and operation of the street lighting system benefits all properties by enhancing overall safety, mitigating crime, alleviating the fear of crime, and enhancing pedestrian safety. The street lighting located on McManus Drive provides 100% special and direct benefit to all properties within the District. These lighting benefits are directly related to the positive enhancement of the area increasing property desirability. Therefore 100% of the costs of the lights will be apportioned to each parcel on a single-family residential unit basis. The benefits are the same for all lots but one parcel (No. 502-034-019) consists of 2 lots, therefore the assessment for this parcel is double. 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 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. City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No, 2 Page 4 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2, McManus Drive 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 property 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 the improvements are new, or where actual maintenance experience is lacking, cost estimates will be used to determine costs, as follows: Street light energy costs: The cost of energy is based on current Edison rates. Street light maintenance: Includes maintenance labor, materials and equipment required to properly maintain the authorized improvements and services within the District. 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. lWV City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 2 Page 5 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 2, McManus Drive 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.

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") Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4 (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 the maintenance of certain public improvements including street lighting maintenance within the District's boundaries. This report is prepared for the levy and collection of annual assessments for District 4 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 referred to as Eagle Way Area. y44V7 City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 4-Engineer's Report Page 1 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4, Eagle Way Area The City proposes to annually levy and collect special assessments to continue the maintenance of the improvements within the District. Assessments within the District are proposed to be levied annually, pursuant to the Landscape and Lighting Act of 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.

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. I y .s� City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 4- Engineer's Report Page 4 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4, Eagle Way Area 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 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 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 desirability and security of properties is enhanced by the presence of street lighting in close proximity to those properties. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods. Specifically: • Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection; • Increased nighttime safety on roads and streets; • Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see; Improved ingress and egress to property; • Reduced vandalism and other criminal act and damage to improvements or property; • Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss; and, 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 lighting improvements and other amenities available or visible to the public at large, the maintenance of these improvements is only necessary for the development of 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, and is reliant upon the special benefit received from the improvements 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. /uarl City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 4-Engineer's Report T age 5 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4, Eagle Way Area Proper maintenance and operation of the street lighting system benefits all properties by enhancing overall safety, mitigating crime, alleviating the fear of crime, and enhancing pedestrian safety. The street lighting located in Eagle Way, Divot Lane, Bridge Way and Par Drive provides 100% special and direct benefit to all properties within the District. These lighting benefits are directly related to the positive enhancement of the area increasing property desirability. Therefore 100% of the costs of the lights 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 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 property 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. Iy� City of Palm Springs, Lighting Maintenance District No. 4-Engineer's Report Page 6 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Street Lighting Maintenance District No. 4, Eagle Way Area 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 the improvements are new, or where actual maintenance experience is lacking, cost estimates will be used to determine costs, as follows: Street light energy costs: The cost of energy is based on current Edison rates. Street light maintenance: Includes maintenance labor, materials and equipment required to properly maintain the authorized improvements and services within the District. 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.

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.6B, 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 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; I T—/I Z T City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6B-Engineer's Report Page 3 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 68, Parkside Estates 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 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 property 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. /94rg j 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. 6B, 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 Adiustment: 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.

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.6C (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 "1972 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 Park Sonora Tract (El Cielo Road, Sonora Road, Loma Vista Circle, San Martin Circle). 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 Li�hting Act City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C—Engineer's Report Page 1 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C, Park Sonora Tract 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.6C, Park Sonora Tract, is located within the boundaries of the City of Palm Springs, south of Sonora Road and east of El Cielo Road. The District includes 30 residential parcels. The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance and servicing of local street landscaping and lighting 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 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 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; ' t ' City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C— Engineer's Report �'( Page 3 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C, Park Sonora Tract 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. 6C—Engineer's Report I V F V974 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C, Park Sonora Tract 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 the 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 a ency or City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C—Engineer's Report g City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C, Park Sonora Tract 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 property 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. City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C—Engineer's Report Page 6 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 6C, Park Sonora Tract Electrical energy costs: Energy costs included are those necessary for the operation of irrigation controls. Ornamental lighting maintenance: Includes maintenance labor and materials required to properly maintain the improvements within the District. 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 Adiustment: Commencing with fiscal year 200512006, 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.

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.8 (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 "1972 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 Vintage Palms (at San Rafael Drive and Avenida Caballeros). 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 of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (the "1972 Act") and 1f1f ��Z City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 8—Engineer's Report Page 1 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 8, Vintage Palms 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 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.B, Vintage Palms, is located within the boundaries of the City of Palm Springs, north of San Rafael Road and east of Avenida Caballeros. The District includes 64 residential parcels. The purpose of the District is to ensure the ongoing maintenance and servicing of local street landscaping and lighting 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 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 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; 'AAA 10 9 City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 8—Engineer's Report Page 3 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 8, Vintage Palms I) 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 Id City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 8—Engineer's Report fa A ffJ City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 8, Vintage Palms 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 the 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. The total assessment was apportioned 59% to the 62 parcels located east of Avenida Caballeros and 41% to the vacant parcel 1 (see page 11) west of Avenida Caballeros, based on the length of the adjacent parkway. The costs are the same for each of the 62 parcels, on a single-family residential unit basis. The assessment for the vacant parcel 1, which consists of 2 Assessor's Parcels of approximately same size, was divided equally for those two parcels. 1 t/of/#& City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 8—Engineer's Report Page 5 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 8, Vintage Palms 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 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 property 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: 1 V*67 City of Palm Springs, Parkway Maintenance District No. 8—Engineer's Report Page 6 City of Palm Springs—Engineer's Report Parkway Maintenance District No. 8, Vintage Palms 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. Electrical energy costs: Energy costs included are those necessary for the operation of irrigation controls. Ornamental lighting maintenance: Includes maintenance labor and materials required to properly maintain the improvements within the District. 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.

Last year I volunteered to represent this.district and it has been a slow and arduous task, but I believe that we have made progress. I am in contact with John Wessman(developer), Frank Tysen(President of Historic Tennis Club District Hotel Division), the HTCNO board, Brudvik Electric and Cove Electric. I have also talked with a lot of homeowners in this district. There is a lot of development going on in this area. At this time we do not want to do anything since we want the new lights to be consistent with the new developments and the historic character of the neighborhood. It all needs to be tied together and fit into the new development. Facts: ■ Our street lights are 36 years old and it is difficult to get spare parts. ■ No engineering report exists regarding the condition of the system. • The lights are wired in series, so if one light goes bad the entire string is lost. ■ We have not lost a string or series of lights. ■ It is a 4000 volt system and requires a line man to work on the lights. ■ Since it has lasted 36 years, it is possible it will last another 30 years. • There is no urgency other than that imposed by the engineers to make any changes. • We want to make sure we make the correct choice. (Measure twice and cut once). Information: ■ We are working on a process, slow as it may be, to have the street lights tie in with the new developments and our historic character. • We are exploring the possibility of only having pedestrian street lights on Baristo and Arenas. ■ We are also looking at a couple of solar powered lights, such as are used in Florida. ■ With all the issues before the city today, this one is not urgent and we want to take our time in making the correct decision. After all, the homeowners and business owners in the Lighting Maintenance District 1 will be paying for any improvements that are made.. 1 1 A I Recommendations: ■ We can mix and match light fixtures to get the dark areas lighted for safety. We will be available to advise you which ones to take off and where to place them. ■ At this time we want you to move the light and fixture from the corner of Tahquitz and Palm Canyon(next to Starbucks where there is ample of light and our street light is not needed at this location)to the top of the light post on Baristo in front of the church where there is currently construction taking place. Due to the construction it is even more important to have this area well lighted as there is a lot of pedestrian traffic. Finally: ■ We would like to see a copy of the accounting of our assessments from the last two years. ■ We will be happy to meet with you and discuss this issue and listen to any alternative plans you have that work for us also. In a letter from George Farago, 1 I Mach 2004, he states that: "the system is failing (wiring, conduit system and fixtures have become obsolete)." There is no engineering report and the lights are wired in series and no string of lights has failed. Dave Barakian advised me that he is not in possession of any written engineering reports regarding the lights, and it is only the opinion of an electrician. Your letter further states: `By law we have to go to election before June 2004." We are not aware of any such law? Please send us the relevant legal mandate! We would also like a copy of the original agreement between the city and Lighting Maintenance District 1. We find ourselves in a position where we will not allow ourselves to be forced into a decision by the impatience of city officials. We are the ones who will be paying for this project, and at this time we are not in a position to select a certain light due to the reasons stated above. Respectfully; Sven Holm 343 W.

Barakian, Director of Public Works/City Engineer From: Jan P. Anderson, Facilities Maintenance Manager Subject: Lighting Maintenance District 1 The City's electricians have been maintaining the lights in this area. The lights have a 3000 hour life span and at 12 hours of operation per day, they last approximately a year before they have to be replaced. We have had outages of the system in previous years that lasted two or three weeks. The longest down time was about a month. This was due to the lines underground shorting out from age. The frequency of outages that may occur would be hard to predict, due to the age of the system. It could go out in the near future or could last a couple of years We have worked on the wiring every couple of years in the past and re-lamped yearly. The poles, lamps, and cutouts are still available, but the fixtures and sockets are obsolete. At the present time there are approximately 5 poles out that are not repairable, the sockets are burned up. Eight years ago, the City electrician replaced a few of the fixtures with H.I.D lamps and these were too bright according to the homeowners and they were removed. These lamps are rate for 24,000 hours, and would have lasted four times as long. At this time we will remove the pole and fixture from the corner of Tahquitz and Palm Canyon and store it till John Wessman completes his work and it can be reinstalled. lgA13V Post Office Box 2743 0 Palm Springs, California 92263-2743 Proof of Publication In Newspaper �r �n7F STATE OF CALIFORNIA County of Riverside p® ,��\o RESOLUTION NO. 20950 J.
