COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Adoption of Resolution No. 6437, Authorizing the Filing of the Transportation Development Claim for Fiscal Year 2026/27.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. 6437, authorizing the filing of the Transportation Development Act Claim for Fiscal Year 2026/27.
Sample Motion: I move to adopt Resolution No. 6437, as read by title only.
BACKGROUND
The California Transportation Development Act (TDA) is a funding source for the development and support of public transportation needs. The TDA provides two major sources of funding: the Local Transportation Fund (LTF), and the State Transit Assistance Fund (STA). The City only claims LTF funding since it does not operate a transit system.
The LTF is a local fund in which the state deposits sales tax revenue to be used for transportation purposes as defined by the TDA.
As the state-designated Regional Transportation Planning Agency for Santa Barbara County, the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments (SBCAG) is responsible for administering the distribution of TDA funds to local agencies and for monitoring the subsequent use of those funds to ensure conformity with all TDA requirements. The TDA funds are allocated to areas of each county based on population, taxable sales, and transit performance. The TDA provides funding for use by local agencies towards a variety of transportation purposes with public transportation as the first priority. Other eligible purposes are regional transportation planning and programming, bicycle and pedestrian projects, and local street and road projects.
The purpose of this agenda matter is to adopt Resolution No. 6437, authorizing the filing of the Transportation Development Act claim for fiscal year (FY) 2026/27.
Agenda Section: Public Hearing
Agenda Item No.: 8
Council Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Resolution No. 6437, Authorizing the Filing of the Transportation Development Claim for Fiscal Year 2026/27 March 9, 2026
DISCUSSION
Every year, SBCAG allocates the estimated TDA funds for the upcoming fiscal year among local agencies based on population percentages provided by the California Department of Finance. This amount is called the apportionment. The City $14,542 for FY 2026/27. As of June 30, 2025, ited TDA fund balance is $12,620.
In order to receive the allocation in the upcoming fiscal year, the City must submit a claim to SBCAG for describing how the apportionment will be used. These claims must be submitted to SBCAG by April 10, 2026. The SBCAG Board approves the amount of funding to be distributed to each local agency, and eligible uses of funds, based on the claims submitted. SBCAG disburses the LTF each month when revenue comes in from the California Board of Equalization. When enough LTF accumulates, the City uses these funds for bike and pedestrian facilities, and pavement improvements.
Adoption of Resolution No. 6437 would enable the City to meet the April 10 deadline for filing the TDA claim.
POLICY CONSISTENCY
This item is in accordance with the regulations of the Transportation Development Act.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS

2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
Introduction
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65400, Community Development Department staff prepare an annual report to the City Council on the status of the General Plan and its Elements, and the progress being made in implementation of the respective goals and programs. The Housing Element Annual Progress Report (Report) reviews activities and projects of the prior year that produce housing units and the
community housing needs, and describes how safe, affordable housing can be provided and maintained for City residents. Included in this Report are statistics demonstrating progress in meeting egional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) allocation. This report and the reporting form attached in Exhibit 1 are required to be filed with the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) annually by April 1.
The 2023-2031 Housing Element (sixth cycle) was finalized and re-adopted by Resolution No. 6288 by the City Council on January 22, 2024. The re-adopted Housing Element was submitted to the HCD for final certification on January 24, 2024. In a March 2024 letter, HCD acknowledged -adopted Housing Element met all statutory requirements for approval, but they could not certify it at that time since the City had not completed its required rezones (Housing Element Program 1) by the statutory deadline of February 15, 2024. Throughout the rest of 2024, staff worked to implement Program 1, which required rezoning a minimum of 14.6 acres to allow for densities of 20-25 units/acre. The resulting Ordinances were adopted by the City Council in December 2024. City staff submitted them to HCD in order to achieve certification of the Housing Element, which was ultimately granted by HCD on January 30, 2025. The Local Coastal Program (LCP) Amendment for these Ordinances were certified by the California Coastal Commission in March 2025 and became effective no later than May 2025. Additional details are provided below under Program 1. 2025 Housing Highlights
During 2025, the City received 18 formal applications that were determined to be complete for processing, together proposing 209 new residential units in Carpinteria. These applications included a mix of housing types. The majority of the proposed new units are proposed in an application for a 191-unit development that would include 94 townhomes and 97 single-family residences, with 20% of the units as deed-restricted for low-income households. Four applications were submitted for in-fill development of new single-family residences and condominiums. The remaining 13 applications were for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and/or Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs).
Since the ADU and JADU Ordinance went into effect in 2023, ADUs and JADUs remain the primary source of new housing produced in the City. In 2025:
12 ADU Coastal Development Permit applications were received 14 ADUs were approved (including 3 that were submitted in 2024) 15 building permits for ADUs were issued
9 ADUs received their Certificates of Occupancy
1 JADU building permit application was received
2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
2 JADU Certificates of Occupancy were issued
Two new single-family residences received their entitlements in 2025, and a building permit was issued for a new condominium triplex in 2025. In summary, entitlements were approved for 16 new residential units, building permits were issued for 20 new residential units, and 12 new residential units were completed and received their Certificates of Occupancy during 2025.
Three applications for large housing projects were submitted to the City in 2025 proposals for 96 new condominium townhomes, an 18-story apartment building containing 130 units, and a 191-unit project comprised of townhomes and single-family homes. Only the latter project has been determined to be complete for processing.
Additionally, City staff has also met with several prospective buyers or developers for some of the larger vacant or under-utilized properties in the City to discuss possible future multi-family housing projects, which, if followed up with formal application submittals in 2026, could offer up to several hundred additional residential units in the years ahead.
Once the Ordinances implementing Program 1 went into effect in the first half of 2025, City staff met with several property owners and developers interested in utilizing the streamlined permit pathway available under the new Residential/Mixed Use (RMU) zone. The City encourages such meetings to inform owners/developers of the incentives available to them and to provide early input on how projects can best benefit the community. To identify ways to further incentivize and realize affordable housing in Carpinteria, the City Council formed a standing Affordable Housing Committee (12/8/25, Resolution No. 6428) that would work with City staff to develop and implement affordable housing strategies. This committee will begin meeting in 2026.
The City also continues to participate in county-wide collaborative events and organizations to identify and pursue innovative housing opportunities. City staff attended and spoke at the Coastal Housing Conference in December 2025, and two members of to Address Homelessness.
also attended a County-led workshop on leveraging government-owned properties for affordable housing development.
In June 2025, the City executed a two-year agreement with the nonprofit organization New Beginnings to continue the Safe Parking Program. Started in 2022 as a pilot program, this program provides managed overnight parking and case management for individuals experiencing vehicular homelessness. In January 2025, the Council raised the number of Safe Parking spots from 6 to 12.
The Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization Board (MHPRSB) met twice in 2025 after a multitenant protections. These public meetings provided a venue for City staff to inform the MHPRSB provided recommendations to staff and the City Council to update and clarify
2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
documents regarding rent increases and required rent disclosure documents, which staff intends to bring forward in 2026.
Housing Element Review
The Housing Element describes the goals and objectives for addressing the during the 2023-2031 planning period, organized into 18 programs with five program categories. Section 2 of the Housing Element is organized by the five primary program categories which are to be implemented. The remainder of this report explains the housing programs and goals, and the progress the City made to implement them throughout 2025.
Program Category 1: Make sites available to accommodate the RHNA.
Housing Needs Summary
The Santa Barbara County Association of Governments (SBCAG) allocated a housing need to the City of 901 housing units for the 2023-2031 Regional Housing Needs Allocation period. The 2023-2031 Housing Element Table II-1 below share of the regional housing need across five income categories.
Goals
Maintain an adequate supply of appropriately zoned land and take all necessary actions to support the production of at least 901 housing units in the City to accommodate the RHNA allocation for the 2023-2031 period.
Maintain a jobs-housing balance or ratio within the 0.75 to 1.25 range suggested by the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments.
Policies
Adequate Sites: Provide and maintain sufficient sites in the General Plan and Zoning Code and associated Land Use and Zoning Maps to accommodate the
2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
housing needs allocated to the City in the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) Plan.
Housing Types: In the General Plan and implementing ordinances, provide for a -family
detached and multi-family housing.
Accessory Dwelling Units: Promote the development of ADUs consistent with State law and City regulations.
Public Services and Facilities: Ensure that public services and facilities have the capacity to support the need for the new residential development allocated to the City by the RHNA Plan.
Result
Throughout 2024, staff worked to develop four ordinances that, collectively, would implement Program 1 (Adequate Sites to Accommodate Regional Housing Needs) and allow the City to obtain HCD certification. The ordinances result in the following changes to :
Create a new zone district, Residential/Mixed Use (RMU) that allows for residential-only or mixed-use commercial/residential multifamily developments with a minimum density of 20 dwelling units/acre (du/ac) and up to a maximum density of 25 du/ac (Ordinance No. 788);
Create Objective Design Standards that would apply to new developments in the RMU zone, as well as other projects required to be processed ministerially per State housing law (Ordinance No. 789); and
Rezone 19.83 acres of land in the City to RMU to provide adequate sites to accommodate the RHNA allocation (Ordinance Nos. 790 and 791).
On January 30, 2025, HCD notified the City that following the adoption of Ordinance Nos. 788-791, the City is now in substantial compliance with State housing https://carpinteriaca.gov/city-hall/community-development/planning/housing-elementupdate/.
The ordinances were submitted to the California Coastal Commission as an LCP Amendment following Council adoption. On March 14, 2025, the Coastal Commission certified Ordinance Nos. 790 and 791 as submitted, and certified Ordinance Nos. 788 and 789 with minor modifications. The City Council re-adopted Ordinance Nos. 788 and 789 with the modifications on April 14, 2025. By May 15, 2025, all four Ordinances were in effect. Candidate sites that were not selected for rezoning as part of Ordinance Nos. 790 Plan/Coastal Land Use Plan Update, scheduled for 2026.
In 2025, 12 new residential units received their Certificates of Occupancy, as summarized in Table I below. Twenty building permits were issued in 2025 for new residential units.
These building permits are summarized in Table II below. While only those units issued
2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
applications for 209 new residential units were determined to be complete and accepted for processing in 2025. An additional 226 units proposed as part of project applications also were submitted in 2025 but have not yet been determined to be complete. Three individual proposed projects comprise the majority of these units, utilizing provisions of SB 330 to freeze applicable development standards at the time of preliminary application submittal. One project proposes 96 for-sale townhomes, of which 10 would be sold to moderate-income households and 2 would be sold to above-moderate income households.1 Another project proposes 94 townhomes and 97 single-family dwellings, with 20% (39 total units) set aside for low-income households. The third project proposes an 18-story, 130-unit apartment building, with 26 units designated for low-income households.
Each of these projects would represent a significant increase in the total number of housing units in the City if entitled and constructed.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and JADUs remain the primary source of new housing construction in the City since Ordinance No. 758 went into effect in 2023. In 2025, 12 ADU Coastal Development Permit applications were received, 14 ADUs were approved (including three that were submitted in 2024), and 15 building permits for ADUs were issued. Nine ADUs completed construction and received their Certificates of Occupancy in 2025. Additionally, for JADUs, one building permit application was received, no building permits were issued, and two Certificates of Occupancy were issued in 2025.
In 2023, the City made available to the public, at no cost, two pre-designed ADU prototype plan sets to help reduce the costs involved in designing and permitting an ADU. To construct an ADU using the prototype plans, an applicant still must obtain a CDP and building permit, but the process is considerably streamlined. To date, five homeowners have utilized these prototype ADU plan sets, including two applications in 2025. Pursuant to AB 1332 (2023), in late 2024, Carpinteria began allowing members of the public to submit additional ADU plan sets for pre-approval;2 however, no plans have yet been submitted to the City for pre-approval.
In 2025, City staff continued progress on proposed updates to its ADU ordinance, to align with the most recent amendments to State ADU law. While the City Council had approved a proposed ADU update ordinance on first reading in summer 2024, comments from HCD, additional changes to State ADU law, and limited City staff capacity resulted in delays to the project. A Planning Commission hearing for a revised ordinance is expected in 2026. 1 area median income . 2

Although the City has granted building permits for 73 units in this RHNA cycle, all but 12 of those units fall within the above-moderate income category. Of the new units approved in 2025, 17 units are in the Above Moderate-income category and three units are in the Lowincome category. In order to fully meet its RHNA allocation, the City would need to permit an additional 542 new units in the Very Low-, Low-, and Moderate-income allocation categories during this planning cycle. For comparison of units approved (via building permits) versus actual units constructed, see Table IV below which summarizes the number of Certificates of Occupancy issued for each year of the current RHNA cycle.

2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
Policies
Infill Development: Promote infill housing development through land use policies and by deferring or reducing development impact fees where the City wants to encourage affordable infill development.
Suitable Housing Unit Sizes: Provide for a range in the number of bedrooms in assisted housing developments so as to help meet the needs of various household types and special needs populations.
Downtown Mixed Use: Encourage studio and one-bedroom units above commercial uses in the downtown district to reduce parking needs and facilitate affordability.
Rental Assistance: Continue participation in the County of Santa Barbara Housing assistance needs. Allocate HOME funds and in-lieu fees to state and federally assisted housing that provides rent restricted units in existing and/or new residential developments.
Acquisition and Rehabilitation of Rental Housing: Work with non-profit sponsors to acquire and rehabilitate rental housing units in order to maintain long-term affordability of the units. This will include, but not be limited, to: (a) technical support needed to obtain funding commitments from county, state and/or federal programs; (b) assistance in permit processing; (c) possible deferral, reduction or waiver of City fees; and (d) contribution of City housing funds, if available.
Critical Workforce Housing: - occupations. New housing developed through the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance, current and future Development Agreements, and other appropriate Housing Element programs should set aside a percentage of the units for households employed in critical workforce occupations. Examples of critical workforce occupations are law enforcement, firefighters, nurses, teachers, and local government.
Farm Employee and Supportive Housing: Allocate in-lieu fees for predevelopment activities, including state and/or federal funding applications, to support the sponsors of farm employee housing and supportive housing for special needs populations.
Shelter for the Homeless: Support countywide programs to provide for a continuum of care for the homeless including emergency shelters, transitional housing, supportive housing and permanent housing. Allocate Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to agencies assisting homeless persons and families to meet shelter and nonshelter needs.
Result
The City continues to prioritize efforts to protect existing rental housing stock and facilitate production of new rental housing stock, with an emphasis on affordable and workforce housing opportunities. The new RMU zone district, described above, provides projects that include at least 20% lower-income units a ministerial, streamlined permitting pathway.
Existing City regulations also allow a 50% reduction in Development Impact Fees (DIFs) for 100% affordable projects.
As part of Program Category 2 efforts, the City has continued to support and help connect qualifying households with rental assistance through the Section 8 voucher program. In 2025, 208 households in Carpinteria received rental assistance via Section 8 vouchers.
2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
This is an increase from the 196 households that received rental assistance through Section 8 vouchers in 2024. The reason(s) for the increase, however, are unknown at this time.
To assist the local homeless population, the City participates in the Santa Barbara Continuum of Care, a collection of service providers, public sector employees, and community members working together to address homelessness. Each week, the City helps host a free lunch program, where service providers help people in need connect with a wide range of services. Typically, organizations like Good Samaritan, New Beginnings, Behavioral Wellness, and AmeriCorps attend weekly.
In 2022, in partnership with New Beginnings, the City operated its first Safe Parking Pilot Program, which provides safe overnight shelter and rapid rehousing programs for families and individuals living in their vehicles. The pilot program accommodated 6 vehicles at a time, with spots opening up as residents found permanent housing. In January 2025, the Council raised the number of Safe Parking spots from 6 to 12, and in June 2025 removed -year agreement with New Beginnings. As of
February 2026, the program has served a total of 27 vehicles occupied by 45 individuals. 24 of those individuals successfully transitioned into housing.
On December 8, 2025, the City Council moved to form the Standing Affordable Housing Committee, comprised of two City Councilmembers appointed to work with City staff and local housing organizations. The purpose of the committee is to identify housing initiatives tailored to Carpinteria that would result in increased housing units, affordability, and accessibility. The committee will begin meeting in 2026 Work continued on the
the ADU ordinance, progress slowed due to limited staff capacity, increased workloads, and required coordination with Coastal Commission staff and HCD. The ordinance would law. Staff anticipates the project will return to decisionmaker hearings in 2026.
Program Category 3: Address and, where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental constraints to the maintenance,
improvement, and development of housing.
Goals
Address, and to the extent legally possible, mitigate and/or remove governmental constraints to the maintenance, preservation, improvement and development of housing.
Implement land use regulations that facilitate meeting affordable housing needs.
Policies
Expedite Affordable Housing Development Review: Affordable housing developments shall receive the highest priority and efforts by staff, the Planning Commission, and City Council to: (a) provide technical assistance to affordable housing developers, including community involvement; (b) take into account project funding and timing needs in the
2025 Housing Element Annual Progress Report
processing and review of the applications; and (c) provide the fastest turnaround possible in determining application completeness.
Fee Mitigation: Permit on a case-by-case basis fee reductions and waivers to help ownerbuilder projects, projects with minimum public service impacts, retrofitting projects, and affordable housing developments.
Result
The City has implemented a 50% Development Impact Fee (DIF) reduction for 100% affordable housing developments to assist in removing governmental constraints to the development of affordable housing. Additionally, no DIFs are charged for ADUs that are less than 750 square feet, and DIFs for ADUs that are 750 square feet or larger are charged proportionately based on square footage, thereby reducing fees for smaller-sized units.
In 2025, City staff worked on two LCP Amendments which would further accommodate and lower barriers to a variety of housing types. The Supportive Housing Ordinance would streamline permitting processes for Low Barrier Navigation Centers, transitional and supportive housing projects, single room occupancy housing, and small residential care accommodations procedures. The SB 9 Ordinance would incorporate State law regarding urban lot splits and ministerial two-unit development in singleLCP. Work on these LCP Amendments will continue into 2026. sets, as described in Program Category 1 above. Overlapping with goals from Program Category 1, the City continued to promote its ADU prototype plans program, consisting of two pre-designed ADU plan sets made available to the public for free. Use of the predesigned plans allows for substantially reduced design and plan check/permit costs, and streamlined plan review. One ADU utilizing the prototype plans received its Certificate of Occupancy in 2025, another application utilizing the prototype plans was issued a building permit in 2025, and one more application was approved for a new ADU using the prototype plans in 2025.
Pursuant to the requirements of Program 1, projects in the new Residential/Mixed Use zone district that provide a minimum of 20% lower-income units receive ministerial review.3 The inclusion of Objective Design Standards as part of Program 1 implementation further helps streamline the design and review process for applicable housing projects.4 Throughout 2025, staff worked with stakeholders, including interested property owners and developers, to discuss streamlined development review processes and incentives available to housing projects providing affordable units. 3 Ordinance No. 788, Section 14.19.040(A)(1) and (2).

Result
Seven mobile home parks provide affordable-by-design housing in the City with a total of 860 mobile home park spaces. home Rent Stabilization regulations aim to protect the value of mobile homes for tenants of rental parks, and control space rents to protect affordability (CMC 5.69 and 5.76). The City also allows manufactured homes to be constructed in all residential zones which may reduce construction costs. The Mobile Home Rent Stabilization Board met twice in 2025 to discuss issues facing mobile home park (MHP) residents. Issues reported by MHP residents included evictions, rent increases harassment. The Board provided the City Council with recommendations for a future stabilization requirements.
The City contracts with the City of Santa Barbara to complete annual compliance monitoring of all affordable deed-restricted inclusionary units, to ensure said units remain occupied in a manner that is consistent with the terms of their respective affordability covenants. The monitoring program found that as of March 4, 2026, all 20 inclusionary units were in compliance for 2025. Noncompliance results in a freeze of home resale value until the violation is cured. The City also conducts annual compliance monitoring of units Workforce Homebuyer Down Payment Loan Program; all
homes were found to be in compliance in 2025.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Amendment No. 9 to Agreement with Dewberry for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 9 to the Agreement with Dewberry to provide additional services for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project in the not-to-exceed amount of $205,232 for a total amended amount of $2,376,168.
Sample Motion: I move to authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 9 to the Agreement with Dewberry to provide additional services for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project in the not-to-exceed amount of $205,232 for a total amended amount of $2,376,168. (The motion requires a roll call vote.)
BACKGROUND
In 2010, the City secured federal-aid funding from the Highway Bridge Program (HBP) for the replacement of the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge1 over Carpinteria Creek. The HBP is a reimbursement funding program in which 88.53-percent of participating costs are paid for with federal-aid funds and the remaining 11.47-percent is paid for by the local agency (i.e., City). The design (i.e., project approval, environmental document, and preliminary engineering), right-of-way (i.e., easement acquisitions and utility relocations), and construction phases of the project are programmed in the HBP. 1 Carpinteria Avenue Bridge over Carpinteria Creek was built in 1937. In accordance with federal regulations, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) conducts inspections for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge.
Caltrans is responsible for inspecting over 12,000 State Highway bridges and approximately 12,200 bridges owned by local agencies. The Carpinteria Avenue Bridge is one of seven vehicular bridges maintained by the City. According to a bridge inspection report prepared by Caltrans in 2012, it is structurally deficient and hydraulically insufficient because it would not allow the 100-year flood, as currently defined, to pass under it.
Agenda Section: Administrative Matters
Agenda Item No.: 10
Council Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Amendment No. 9 to Agreement with Dewberry for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project March 9, 2026
On May 13, 2013, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an Agreement with Dewberry (formerly known as Drake Haglan and Associates2) to provide consulting services of the design and right-of-way phases. On July 22, 2013, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 with Dewberry to provide additional services of preparing a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) for submittal to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The purpose of the CLOMR was to provide hydraulic analysis of the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge in conjunction with the overall Carpinteria Creek floodway analysis by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Linden Avenue and Casitas Pass Road Interchanges and Via Real Extension Project.
On June 9, 2014, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 with Dewberry to provide additional services of preparing an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). the preparation of a Mitigated
Negative Declaration in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act.
However, an EIR was subsequently determined after an Initial Study was reevaluated.
On January 12, 2015, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 3 with Dewberry to provide additional services of preparing an extended archeological investigation.
Report, an extended Phase I archeological investigation was necessary to determine whether the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project (Project) would impact archeological resources. On September 14, 2015, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 4 with Dewberry to provide additional services of conducting hazardous materials testing.
On December 12, 2016, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 5 with Dewberry to provide additional services of community outreach activities for an additional year. The project was delayed one year due to unforeseen relocation planning
coordination, and cumulative impact assessments. These efforts were required in order to complete the EIR. The EIR was certified by the Planning Commission on November 7, 2016.
On September 25, 2017, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 6 with Dewberry to provide additional services of complying with a new Caltrans policy associated with the right-of-way phase of federal-aid transportation project appraisal review services for local agencies. Caltrans discontinued its appraisal review services for local agencies, and Caltrans required all local agencies with federal-aid transportation projects to conduct their own appraisal review services. On July 9, 2018, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 7 with Dewberry to provide additional services of conducting public outreach, renegotiating easement agreements with adjacent property owners, and consequently revising the design due to the results or outcomes from the renegotiation terms.
2 Dewberry acquired Drake Haglan and Associates in 2019.
Amendment No. 9 to Agreement with Dewberry for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project March 9, 2026
On October 9, 2023, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 8 with Dewberry to provide additional services of updating bridge and roadway designs; utility facilities relocation design; geotechnical report; hydraulic and scour analysis; mitigation planting design; and renewing environmental regulatory permits.
The purpose of this agenda matter is for the City Council to authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 9 to the Agreement with Dewberry to provide additional services for the Project in the not-to-exceed amount of $205,232 for a total amended amount of $2,376,168.
DISCUSSION
The Project began construction with clearing and grubbing work, which was completed in January 2025. The clearing and grubbing work was needed as a precursor to starting overhead utility relocation work, especially for the electric and telecommunication facilities. The overhead utility relocation work recently started; however, it was approximately a year after the completion of clearing and grubbing work. Consequently, the project schedule, especially the start date of the bridge construction work, is delayed.
To date, the utility companies, namely Southern California Edison, made changes to its original relocation plans due to field conditions. Consequently, the project plans now need to be revised to account for the changes. Based on the status of the overhead utility relocation work, staff now estimates the start of bridge construction work to be in late 2026 at the earliest.
Moreover, the original term dates of a few right-of-way acquisitions from private properties, which include temporary construction easements and mitigation easements, are now expired and must be re-acquired due, in part, to the utility relocation work delay.
Further, the term dates of a few environmental regulatory permits are expired or close to expiration and must be renewed again.
The proposed Amendment No. 9 is for additional services to update the Project design.
The general scope of work of Amendment No. 9 includes the following tasks:
1. Update of bridge and roadway designs.
2. Update of utility facilities relocation design.
3. Re-acquirement of right-of-way.
4. Renewal of environmental regulatory permits.
Details of the scope of work are , which a copy is in the proposed Amendment No. 9 as shown in Attachment A.
The total project cost of the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project that is currently programmed in the HBP is $17,446,850. The table below shows the summary breakdown of the cost of each project phase as shown in the HBP of the Federal Transportation Improvement Program.

SUBJECT: Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project Amendment Request Amendment No. 9: Additional Support Services Dear Mr. Ilasin:
Dewberry Engineers Inc. (Dewberry) is requesting a contract amendment to perform additional services for the Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Project. The additional services include additional utility coordination/design, ROW acquisition, roadway/bridge design to support the utilities and ROW efforts, specification revisions, and environmental permitting services. The proposed services are currently an extension of existing services and are necessary in order to complete project delivery for the City.
The project has been progressing and is nearing a point where it will be ready for construction bidding soon. However, unforeseen challenges have arisen that require more time and budget to complete than originally anticipated. A summary of these challenges are listed here:
1. Right-of-Way Acquisitions: Some of the property acquisitions done previously to accommodate construction have expired. Dewberry and Hamner Jewell will work with the City to coordinate with property owners and re-acquire rights needed for construction. These rights will be coordinated with Caltrans to re-obtain a Right-ofWay Certification allowing the project to go to bid.
2. Utility Coordination and Design: Coordination with many of the utility companies has continued and is steadily progressing. However, many of the utility companies have required significant amounts of assistance and explanation of the bridge project.
Additionally, some companies have changed their design multiple times and have recently done so again. To finish our design Dewberry will need to finish coordinating with all of the impacted utilities and incorporate their latest designs into ours.
3. Permitting: Unfortunately, the HBP funding delays have pushed construction beyond the end dates of our permits. The permits have been extended as long as possible, but now have to be completely re-done. Permitting requirements and the applications have changed significantly since they were originally done, so substantial work needs to be performed in order to re-acquire the permits.
These unforeseen events impact multiple project related tasks and require additional budget.
A summary of the additional work needed is summarized below:
Tasks 3.1 Project Management
The Project Management task includes the time needed to manage the flow of work through the project team. Due to the construction funding of this project being moved out by Caltrans, the length of the overall project is also extended. Since Project Management is a duration driven task, the additional time added to the project requires additional budget. The
Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project
Amendment #9 Request
additional scope included in this amendment will be for the Project Manager to coordinate with the project team and stakeholders. This also includes Dewberry assisting the City with HBP funding matters.
Tasks 3.2 Environmental Permits
Due to the permits expiring, Dewberry will assist Padre in re-prepare all of the permit applications, required information, and coordinate with the permitting agencies in order to reacquire all of the permits for construction. Dewberry will also review the final permits to check for any onerous or unreasonable permitting measures, as well as include the permitting measures in the project specifications.
Tasks 3.3 Utility Coordination
Due to the amount of assistance and coordination with the utility companies, additional budget for utility coordination is required. The additional scope for this task includes time for Dewberry to hold additional utility coordination calls, provide assistance with the utility companies in the design of their relocations in conformance with the bridge project, and implement their designs into our PS&E package.
Tasks 3.4 Right-of-Way
Additional budget is requested for Dewberry to work with Hamner Jewell to re-acquire property rights needed for construction. The additional work will consist of coordinating impacts, needs, re-acquiring needed rights, and assisting in re-obtaining Right-of-Way Certification.
Tasks 3.11 100% PS&E
The major effort in this amendment is to finalize the PS&E for bidding. Dewberry will update the ROW needs, perform design work associated with the latest utility company relocation designs, finalize the project technical specifications with the latest updates, and other necessary changes to finalize the PS&E set for bidding. This will include working with the City to remove all DBE requirements and other required Caltrans changes from the front end specifications and technical specifications.
Task 3.12 Bidding Support
A task for construction bidding support currently exists in our contract but has no budget assigned to it. Now that the project is close to being bid and this item can be properly scoped for the level of effort needed, budget is being assigned to it. Dewberry will assist the City during bidding with plan and specification interpretation, answering bidder inquiries, and preparing addenda as needed.
Hamner Jewell
Hamner Jewell will work with the City to coordinate with property owners and re-acquire rights needed for construction. These rights will be coordinated with Caltrans to re-obtain a Right-of-Way Certification allowing the project to go to bid.
Padre
Padre will work with Dewberry to re-apply and receive new permits from CDFW, USACE, and RWQCB. The applications will be updated to the current permitting requirements.

Amendment #9 Request
Total All Items
The amount of the requested amendment for the additional scopes of work is $205,231.49. This revises the current contract amount from $2,170,935.88 to a total of $2,376,167.37. (Exhibit 10-H) for this additional work is attached.
Other Items
To accommodate the additional tasks in this amendment and the delayed bidding of the project, Dewberry requests our contract be extended until December 31, 2026. Construction support will be addressed separately with the City prior to bidding and construction.
As we have done since the beginning of the project, Dewberry respects the cost of developing this project to the City. We will strive to be as efficient as possible and try to complete the required work in less than the requested budgets. This project is billed cost plus fixed fee meaning whatever budget is not required by the Dewberry team will not be billed to the City.
Any unused budget at the end of bidding will be reallocated in the future to a design support during construction task.
If you have any questions or would like further clarification of any of these documents, please call me at your convenience.

Subject: City of Carpinteria- Carpinteria Bridge Replacement Project Proposal for Temporary Construction Easement Extension Services Dear Matt,
This is to respond to Gerald’s request to provide TCE extension services on the subject project. The parcels involved include:
Because so much time has passed since we completed right of way acquisition services on this project, including the acquisition of the subject TCEs, extension efforts will need to start with a review of the current title of each parcel. We expect to find that some parcels likely changed ownership since the

original transactions were completed. If we find that is in fact the case, these will need to be treated as a whole new right of way acquisition, obtaining title information, preparing valuations and offer packages, presenting offers, working with the new owners to achieve amicable cooperative agreements, and processing the agreements and payment requests for the amounts due for each added extension period.
Further, Caltrans TCE process requirements have evolved since the time of the original TCE acquisitions and so we will assume that we will need Waiver Valuations to set the extension values, offer and document preparation and processing to complete each extension in conformance with Caltrans requirements.
On the positive side, the limits on which Waiver Valuations are acceptable have been raised by Caltrans so this proposal will include no appraisals, it assumes all TCE extensions will be able to be cooperatively finalized based on staff completed Waiver Valuations. If appraisals and title reports are deemed necessary, these will need to be addressed as additional services with additional budget allocations.
For our HJA staff services for this work, we propose a budget of $42,000. We will bill only for time and costs actually expended and if everything time effectively and cooperatively falls into place, the excess budget will remain untapped. We will bill on a Time and Materials basis monthly, and we expect Dewberry to promptly pass on our billing to the City within 21 days of the date of our invoice, each and every month, and to issue payment to HJA within 10 days of Dewberry’s receipt of payment by the City.
We also require transparency to confirm that are invoices are in fact being billed to the City each month and that we are notified when City has paid for our services. Our fee schedule is attached. The budget allocated will cover up to 225 hours of HJA staff time plus $2,500 of direct costs for things like express delivery, notary services, and mileage.
If you have any questions or will need anything else to complete a sub-contract to bring us contractually onboard to assist you with this work, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Lillian Jewell

Attention: Mr. Matt Burgard, Engineer
Subject: Carpinteria Avenue Bridge Replacement Project
Proposal to Obtain New Regulatory Permits
Dear Matt:
We understand project construction will be delayed until 2027, such that regulatory permits (as extended) will expire prior to the initiation of construction. The current status of regulatory permits is summarized below:
Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB): the second amendment dated 3/8/24 expired since construction was not initiated by August 18, 2025.
California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW): the extension and amendment dated 2/17/23 expired on November 1, 2025.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps): the Nationwide Permit (NWP) reverification dated 10/31/22 is valid through March 14, 2026, with an additional 12 months if construction has been initiated by that date.
Scope of Work
Project Description and Environmental Setting Update. Padre will review the Final EIR, EIR Addendum, regulatory permits, and subsequent correspondence to update the project description and environmental setting as needed to address minor project changes, the effects of the debris flows and subsequent natural recovery on the project site. Graphics (aerial photograph base maps) will be updated to reflect current conditions.
Dewberry
February 10, 2026
CDFW Streambed Alteration Agreement (SAA). Padre will complete a SAA notification package for review by the City and Dewberry based on the updated project description and environmental setting. A biological field survey and tree survey will be conducted. The tree survey will confirm those trees that have already been legally removed for utility work and other pre-construction tasks. The biological resources study prepared for the original SAA notification will be updated based on the results of the biological field survey and tree survey. The Draft Mitigation and Monitoring Plan (last updated December 2022) will be revised as needed to conform to the current landscaping plans.
All notification materials will be uploaded to the CDFW permit system (EPIMS) in coordination with City staff. Padre will respond to information requests and update notification materials as needed until the notification is found complete. We will negotiate permit conditions once the draft SAA is received to ensure the permit conditions are reasonable and feasible and consistent with conditions of the original SAA.
RWQCB Water Quality Certification. Padre will update the RWQCB Aquatic Resources Delineation Report and prepare a draft Water Quality Certification application for review by Dewberry and the City, including an alternatives analysis and compensatory mitigation plan (based on the updated Draft Mitigation and Monitoring Plan). This application will be based on a draft application prepared in 2023. Padre will facilitate the required pre-filing Zoom meeting with Dewberry and City staff. We will coordinate (emails, conference calls, site meetings) as needed to facilitate issuance of the Water Quality Certification, including response to information requests.
Corps Nationwide Permit (2026 NWPs update). Padre will update the Corps Aquatic Resources Delineation Report and prepare a Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) for review by Dewberry and the City. We will submit the PCN with the biological opinions received for the project from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service. We will work with Corps and City staff as needed to facilitate Nationwide Permit verification. This task includes an updated cultural resources record search, which is typically required by the Corps if not available through a recent CEQA document.
Fee Estimate
Padre proposes to complete the above scope of work for a not-to-exceed fee of $26,459.
It is anticipated work will be conducted under another amendment to our existing contract. Note that our records indicate we have $19,209.34 remaining in contract per Amendment no. 5. The cost-plus format spreadsheet is attached. I have updated our staff hourly rates, let me know if this is acceptable.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Mid-Year Budget Report Including Appropriation Adjustments and Authorized Full-Time Positions List
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Receive the Mid-Year Budget Report and approve adjustments to the budget as summarized in Attachment B and the authorized full-time positions list as shown in Attachment C.
Sample Motion: I move to receive the Mid-Year Budget Report and approve amendments to the adopted budget and authorized full-time position list as provided for in Attachments B and C, respectively.
(Requires a roll call vote.)
BACKGROUND
The budget is a dynamic document that undergoes continuous adjustments and refinements throughout the fiscal year as economic conditions and other factors affecting revenue and expenditure projections evolve. Amendments are made as needed to ensure the budget accurately reflects anticipated outcomes. The Mid-Year Budget Report provides an opportunity for all departments to evaluate their areas of responsibility and propose changes to the City Manager for review and potential consideration by the Finance/Budget Committee, and ultimately the City Council. This report does not include the Capital Improvement Program (CIP), which is tentatively scheduled for Council consideration on March 30, 2026. Any necessary appropriations for capital projects will be addressed at that time.
This report includes several attachments that provide additional detail and supporting information. Attachment A Summary by Fund presents an overview of all City funds, including summarized revenues, expenditures, interfund transfers, and any proposed adjustments. Attachment B Recommended Appropriation Adjustments provides a comprehensive listing of the recommended budget appropriation changes across all funds. Attachment C Authorized Full-Time Positions contains a complete listing of all authorized full-time positions with proposed amendments.
Agenda Section: Other Business
Agenda Item No.: 11
Council Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Mid-Year Budget Report Review and Appropriation Adjustments March 9, 2026
The City Council Finance/Budget Committee meets monthly and reviewed a draft MidYear Budget Report, including the recommended budget adjustments and authorized fulltime position list, at its meeting on March 2, 2026. Following its review, the Committee recommended that the proposed budget adjustments and authorized full-time position list be forwarded to the City Council for consideration and approval.
DISCUSSION
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025/26 Mid-Year Budget process examines performance and trends in comparison to current budget projections. It covers the period from July 1, 2025, through January 31, 2026, and compares actual results and department needs to budgeted estimates. The recommended budget adjustments to revenue and expenditure projections are based on available information, trends, and anticipated program activities for the remainder of FY 2025/26.
Additionally, the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the year ending June 30, 2025, reported a General Fund Available Fund Balance (AFB) of $3,315,240.
The current General Fund AFB is $2,586,102, compared to the Proposed Mid-Year Budget AFB of $2,851,787, reflecting an increase of $265,685 to the AFB. Please note that while there is an expected increase in
current projections.
General Fund
As summarized in Table 1 below, the General Fund supports discretionary spending and funds the majority of general services. For the FY 2025/26 budget, expenditures are projected to exceed revenues by $722,500. Revised projections reflecting increased revenues reduce the shortfall to $296,125, resulting in a corresponding improvement to the fund balance. However, transfers totaling $866,800 are anticipated, an increase from the previously projected $771,150, and include subsidies to several funds such as the Park Maintenance Fund, Right-of-Way Assessment District Fund, and Berm Assessment District Fund.

Mid-Year Budget Report Review and Appropriation Adjustments March 9, 2026
$322,850, largely due to the passage of Measure B and higher overall occupancy rates, while Sales Tax has increased slightly by $14,350, primarily reflecting statewide sales tax trends. Charges for Services have increased by $259,300, mainly attributable to Planning Charges and Building Plan Check fees received year-to-date. In addition, Miscellaneous Revenue has grown by $109,100, largely due to an $83,600 federal reimbursement from FEMA related to storm disasters in prior fiscal years.
The Ending Fund Balance totals $11,676,239, with the General Fund Available Fund Balance at $2,851,787. This total includes the General Fund Reserve for Economic Uncertainties of $5,976,550, the General Fund Special Projects Fund of $901,874, the General Fund Capital Asset Replacement Fund at $975,944, and the General Fund Nonspendable - Pension Trust Fund valued at $970,084.
Table 2: General Fund Revenue
As summarized in Table 3 below, overall expenditures reflect a proposed increase of $343,725 across several categories. This includes an increase of $182,500 in Professional Services, primarily related to a $170,000 increase in legal services and $10,000 for consultant services related to the transition to Microsoft 365. Personnel costs are projected to rise by $52,150, consisting of $46,650 in Wages and $5,500 in Benefits, associated with temporary agreements for the Public Works Director and City Manager position.
Transfers Out reflect a net increase of $95,650. This includes a $165,000 increase to the Park Maintenance Fund, largely due to a correction to the water budget that was the result of an entry error during the budget process, offset by a $61,500 credit related to fiscal year-end carryover in the AB939 Fund.

Table 3: General Fund Expenditures
Measure X Fund
As summarized in Table 4 below, the proposed revenue increase of $160,400 includes a $136,000 increase in Sales Tax due to statewide trends, $35,500 in State Grants for Community Development, and $12,500 in Miscellaneous Income from additional use of EV stations. These increases are partially offset by a $15,000 decrease in Interest Income, primarily due to the use of fund balance for subsidies and capital projects, and a $10,000 decrease in Donations, reflecting no proposed contributions for senior programming.
The proposed expenditure increase of $98,500 consists of an $80,500 rise in Professional Services, mainly related to the emergency preparedness update, and a $16,000 increase in Utility expenditures driven by higher EV station usage.
Transfers Out have decreased by $16,775 for subsidies, including a reduction of $12,150 in the Recreation Services Fund, an increase of $3,950 in the Library Fund, and a decrease of $8,575 in the PEG Fee Fund. Transfer increases are attributable to operational needs, while reductions are the result of higher-than-anticipated program revenues.

Table 4: Measure X Fund Summary
Park Maintenance Fund
As summarized in Table 5 below, the proposed revenue increase of $2,800 is primarily due to a $1,800 increase in Charges for Services from park rentals and a $1,000 increase from the Bluffs Endowment.
Expenditures increased by $167,850 and consist of an adjustment in the amount of $159,500 in Utilities, largely due to a correction of the water budget caused by an entry error during the budget process, and $5,000 in Other Operating Expense for training.
Transfers In reflect a proposed increase of $165,000 in subsidies funded by the General Fund, largely resulting from the same correction to the water budget entry error.

As summarized in Table 6 below, the proposed increase to revenues of $2,550 is mainly in Reimbursement Revenues, due to insurance reimbursements for workers' compensation claims.

50551811.8
(This motion requires a roll call vote.)
BACKGROUND
Existing Assessment District No. 3
In 1985, the City of Carpinteria formed Lighting, Landscaping, and Right-of-Way Improvement District No. 3 (District No. 3) through Resolution No. 1474 to create a dedicated funding source for right-of-way maintenance services. Prior to its formation, the City lacked sufficient resources to adequately maintain street trees, landscaped areas, sidewalks, curbs, and gutters.
District No. 3 was established with a $30 per-parcel assessment, generating approximately $200,000 annually to fund maintenance activities. District No. 3 covers the entire city, and assessments are levied on a parcel-by-parcel basis based on land use and service needs. However, the passage of Proposition 218 in 1996 prohibited increasing assessments without voter approval. As a result, District No. 3 revenues have remained frozen at approximately $200,000 per year for nearly 30 years, despite significant increases in labor, materials, and contract service costs.
Since the late 1990s, District No. 3 expenditures have exceeded revenues every year, creating persistent structural deficits. To maintain basic service levels, the City has relied on subsidies from the General Fund, Measure A, Measure X, Gas Tax, and other revenues. Today, maintaining landscaped areas within the public right-of-way requires approximately $1.15 million annually. The aforementioned subsidies now strain the City’s ability to fund other priorities, including street repairs, traffic safety projects, and facility maintenance.
Establishing a new, Proposition 218-compliant assessment district would modernize the City’s funding structure by providing a transparent, legally compliant mechanism that aligns assessed rates with the actual cost of providing right-of-way maintenance services.
Proceedings to Replace Lighting, Landscaping, and Right-of-Way Improvement District No. 3 with Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 On November 10, 2025, the City Council adopted resolutions initiating proceedings and declaring its intent to form Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (Streets and Highways Code § 22500 et seq.) and Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Proposition 218).1 At that meeting, the City Council:
1 See November 10, 2025 Staff Report for Formation of the Landscape Maintenance District.
Public Hearing to Consider Objections, Protests, and Public Testimony and Conduct the Results of the Property Owner Protest Ballot Proceeding for the Formation of Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 and the Levy of Assessments Commencing Fiscal Year 2026/2027 March 9, 2025
50551811.8
• Preliminarily approved the Engineer’s Report prepared by Willdan Financial Services (Attachment A);
• Ordered that a property owner protest ballot proceeding be conducted to consider the proposed assessments; and
• Adopted procedures to implement the requirements of AB 2257, “Benefit Assessment Setting Procedures,” which the City may follow concurrently with the Proposition 218 property owner protest ballot proceeding if it chooses to implement an exhaustion of remedies requirement for challenging the legality of an assessment district (Attachment B).
If approved, the proposed District would repeal and replace existing District No. 3 and would establish a dedicated and equitable funding mechanism for the maintenance, operation and servicing of public landscape areas and public street trees that provide a direct and special benefit to properties within the District.
This public hearing follows the initiation and intent actions previously taken by the City Council to consider all objections, protests, and public testimony to the proposed District, supported by the Engineer’s Report provided as Attachment A.
DISCUSSION
The purpose of this public hearing is to consider all objections, protests, and public testimony made or filed by any interested person, and to direct the City Clerk to start the ballot tabulation process.
Notice of the public hearing, together with the property owner protest ballots, were mailed to all affected property owners of record on January 9, 2026, more than forty-five (45) days in advance of the public hearing in compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. Each property owner protest ballot is weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected parcel, as established in the Engineer’s Report.
Per AB 2257 and the City’s “Benefit Assessment Setting Procedures,” instructions for submitting written objections to the proposed District were included in the notice of the public hearing mailed to all affected property owners of record. Per these instructions, all written objections alleging noncompliance with the California Constitution must have been received by the City by February 24, 2026 at 5:00 pm. The City received no written objections by that deadline.
At the conclusion of the public testimony portion of the public hearing:
• The City Council will announce the close of the public testimony portion of the public hearing and call for the final submission of any property owner protest ballots.
Public Hearing to Consider Objections, Protests, and Public Testimony and Conduct the Results of the Property Owner Protest Ballot Proceeding for the Formation of Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 and the Levy of Assessments Commencing Fiscal Year 2026/2027 March 9, 2025
50551811.8
• The City Clerk, or their designee Willdan Financial Services, will begin to tabulate the property owner protest ballots; and
• The City Council will consider whether to approve Resolution No. 6438 closing both the public testimony portion of the public hearing and the period for submitting property owner protest ballots; directing the tabulation of property owner protest ballots to occur in public view in City Council Chambers in City Hall after the closing of the Public Hearing and continuing on March 10, 2026, and to be continued as necessary to completion; and continuing the public hearing to the March 23, 2026 City Council meeting for the purpose of declaring the results of the tabulation and, if no majority protest exists, considering formation of the Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 and levy of assessments for FY 2026/2027.
A majority protest exists if ballots submitted, and not withdrawn, in opposition to the proposed assessments exceed ballots submitted, and not withdrawn, in its favor, weighted by the amount of the proposed assessment to be imposed upon the identified parcel for which each property owner protest ballot was submitted. If a majority protest exists, the City is legally required to abandon the formation proceedings.
If no majority protest exists, the City Council may proceed to:
• Confirm formation of the District;
• Approve the Engineer’s Report; and
• Order the levy and collection of assessments beginning in FY 2026/2027.
The Engineer’s Report prepared by Willdan Financial Services (Attachment A) establishes the technical and legal basis for formation of Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 and for the levy of assessments commencing FY 2026/2027.
As detailed in Attachment A, the Engineer’s Report:
• Defines the District boundaries and identifies the parcels receiving special benefit; • Describes the maintenance and services to be funded, including maintenance of public landscape areas and public street trees;
• Distinguishes special benefits from general benefits in compliance with Proposition 218; and
• Establishes a proportional assessment methodology based on Equivalent Benefit Units (EBUs) to ensure assessments are levied in proportion to the special benefit received by each parcel.
POLICY CONSISTENCY
This action aligns with the City Council’s Primary Goal #4: Maintain the Fiscal Sustainability of the City, as outlined in the FY 2025–27 Strategic Plan, by modernizing
Public Hearing to Consider Objections, Protests, and Public Testimony and Conduct the Results of the Property Owner Protest Ballot Proceeding for the Formation of Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 and the Levy of Assessments Commencing Fiscal Year 2026/2027 March 9, 2025
50551811.8
and stabilizing funding mechanisms for ongoing maintenance of public improvements that directly benefit assessed properties.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
No appropriations are needed at this time. If approved, assessments identified in the Engineer’s Report will be levied beginning in FY 2026/2027 and collected on the Santa Barbara County property tax roll to fund the landscape maintenance services described therein.
LEGAL AND RISK MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS
California’s AB 2257, effective January 1, 2025, requires property owners to submit written objections to proposed assessment increases prior to the public hearing as a prerequisite for filing litigation challenging the rates. In compliance with this requirement, the City mailed property owner protest ballots and informational sheets to affected property owners on January 9, 2026. The deadline for submitting written objections was February 24, 2026. The City received no timely written objection meeting the requirements of AB 2257.
The proposed actions comply with the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 and the procedural and substantive requirements of Proposition 218, including the legally mandated property owner protest ballot process.
The City Attorney’s Office has worked closely with staff throughout this process and will be available at the hearing to answer any questions.
OPTIONS
1. Adopt Resolution No. 6438 closing both the public testimony portion of the public hearing and the period for submitting property owner protest ballots; directing the tabulation of property owner protest ballots to occur in public view in the City Council Chambers at City Hall on March 9 and March 10, 2026, and to be continued as necessary to completion; and continuing the public hearing to the March 23, 2026 City Council meeting for the purpose of declaring the results of the tabulation and, if no majority protest exists, considering formation of the Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 and levy of assessments for FY 2026/2027.

Engineer’s Report
Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
Introduction
Overview
Pursuant to the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, being Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code, commencing with Section 22500 (hereafter referred to as the “1972 Act”), and in compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of Article XIIID of the California State Constitution (hereafter referred to as the “California Constitution”), the City Council of the City of Carpinteria, County of Santa Barbara, State of California (hereafter referred to as “City”), proposes to form a special benefit assessment district designated as:
Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
(hereafter referred to as “District”), which includes the parcels that will receive special benefits from the District Improvements, including the ongoing operation, maintenance, and servicing of those improvements. This Engineer’s Report (hereafter referred to as “Report”) has been prepared in connection with the formation of the District and the proposed levy and collection of annual assessments beginning in Fiscal Year 2026/2027, as required pursuant to Chapter 1, Article 4 of the 1972 Act.
The City proposes to form the District and to levy and collect annual assessments on the County of Santa Barbara (herein referred to as “County”) tax roll commencing in Fiscal Year 2026/2027.
The purpose of the District is to provide a stable funding source for the maintenance, operation, and administration of the public landscape areas and public street trees that provide special benefits to parcels within the City. The improvements and assessments described herein are consistent with the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 and the substantive and procedural requirements of Article XIIID of the California Constitution.
To adequately fund and sustain the District Improvements, the City has determined that it is appropriate and in the public interest to establish and annually levy assessments on the parcels within the District to recover the estimated costs of providing these services. These costs include, but are not limited to, regular maintenance and servicing of the District Improvements, incidental expenses associated with operation and administration, and the collection of funds for reserves, capital improvements, and periodic repair or rehabilitation projects as authorized by the 1972 Act.
For the purposes of this Report, the term “parcel” or “parcels” refers to individual properties that are assigned their own Assessor’s Parcel Number (herein referred to as “APN”) by the Santa Barbara County Assessor’s Office. The County Auditor-Controller uses APNs and specific District fund numbers to identify, on the tax roll, those properties subject to assessment. Parcels within the District shall be assessed proportionately for only those improvements from which they receive a special benefit.
Ballot Proceedings
Pursuant to the provisions of Article XIIID, Section 4 of the California Constitution, the City shall conduct a property owner protest ballot proceeding (referred to as “Ballot Proceeding”) for the proposed levy of new or increased assessments as described in this Report. In conjunction with this Ballot Proceeding, the City Council will conduct a noticed public hearing to consider public testimonies, comments, and written protests and objections regarding the levy of the proposed new/increased assessments.
City of Carpinteria
Engineer’s Report
Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
Upon conclusion of the public hearing, property owner protest ballots received will be opened and tabulated to determine whether majority protest exists:
“A majority protest exists if, upon the conclusion of the hearing, ballots submitted in opposition to the assessment exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the assessment. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots shall be weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected property.”
After completion of the ballot tabulation, the City Council will confirm the results of the balloting.
If majority protest exists for the proposed assessment, further proceedings to form the District and implement the new assessment shall be abandoned at this time. If tabulation of the ballots indicates that majority protest does not exist for the proposed assessment and the assessment range formula presented and described herein, the City Council may adopt this Report (as submitted or amended); approve the district diagram(s) contained herein; order the formation of the District; direct the improvements to be made; and confirm and approve the assessments as presented in this Report. The assessment so authorized, including the assessment range formula, shall establish the authorized maximum assessment rate(s) for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 with an escalator being applied thereafter.
The new assessment, as approved, may be levied and collected on the County tax rolls commencing in Fiscal Year 2026/2027. Each fiscal year the City Council shall hold a noticed public hearing regarding these matters prior to approving and ordering the levy of assessments.
If in any fiscal year, the proposed annual assessment for this District exceeds the maximum assessment described herein, such an assessment would be considered a new or increased assessment, and such an assessment must be confirmed through a mailed property owner protest ballot proceeding before that new or increased assessment may be imposed.
Report Content
The Report consists of five parts as follows:
Part I
Plans and Specifications
Contains a general description of the District and identifies the improvements and services that will provide special benefits to the parcels within the District. The detailed plans and specifications for the District Improvements are on file in the City of Carpinteria, Public Works Department, 5775 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria, CA 93013, and are incorporated by reference as part of this Report.
Part II
Method of Apportionment
This section establishes the method used to apportion the annual cost of the District Improvements among all benefiting parcels in proportion to the special benefits each receives.
The apportionment methodology defines the relationship between the improvements maintained by the District and the parcels that benefit from those improvements. It also provides the framework for calculating each parcel’s proportional share of the total assessment in compliance with the requirements of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 and Article XIIID of the California Constitution (Proposition 218).

Part III
Estimate of Costs
An estimate of the annual costs to maintain improvements within the District including, but not limited to, annual maintenance and service expenses, utility costs, related incidental expenses, and fund balances authorized by the 1972 Act. The estimate of costs specifically identifies those costs associated with the special benefit provided to parcels within the District from the District Improvements and establishes the initial maximum assessment for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 to be approved by the property owners of record within the District as part of the Ballot Proceeding.
This part also identifies and outlines an Assessment Range Formula (i.e., inflationary adjustment) that provides for an annual adjustment to the maximum assessment rate by establishing limits on future assessments and also providing for reasonable cost adjustments due to inflation.
Part IV
District Diagram
A diagram of the District boundaries that shows those parcels that receive a special benefit from the improvements. Parcel identification and the lines and dimensions thereof and subdivision of land within the District are inclusive of the parcels as shown on the County APN maps that existed at the time this Report was prepared and includes all subsequent subdivisions, lot line adjustments, or parcel changes therein. Reference is hereby made to the County APN maps.
Part V
Assessment Roll
A listing of the proposed assessment amount to be presented to the property owners of record during the Ballot Proceedings required pursuant to the provisions of the California Constitution.
The “Balloted Maximum Assessment” amount represents each parcel’s maximum assessment amount for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 and is based on the parcel’s calculated proportional special benefit as outlined in Part II — Method of Apportionment, and assessment rate (“Calculated Assessment per EBU”) established by the Budget as described in Part III.
DISCLAIMER
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of this Engineer’s Report is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the Engineer’s Report and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions might subsequently be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
Part I — Plans and Specifications
Description of the District
This Report addresses the formation of Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1 for Fiscal Year 2025/2026. The boundaries of the District are congruent to the City jurisdictional boundaries. Parcels within the District will receive a particular and distinct benefit from the improvements provided by the District. The District Diagram, as shown in Part IV, depicts the District boundaries.
Although the formation is proposed in Fiscal Year 2025/2026, the first annual assessment is anticipated to be levied in Fiscal Year 2026/2027 following completion of the property owner protest ballot proceeding, as required by Article XIIID Section 4 of the California Constitution. This timing ensures compliance with procedural requirements while establishing the long-term funding structure necessary to support the ongoing maintenance, operation, and servicing of qualifying public landscape areas and street tree improvements.
The purpose of the District is to provide funding in part for the continued maintenance, operation, and servicing of public landscape areas and public street trees within designated areas of the City that provide a particular and distinct benefit (special benefit) to designated parcels within the District and were specifically installed or were otherwise necessary for the beautification and benefit of those parcels (collectively referred to as “District Improvements”).
As authorized by the 1972 Act, the District expenses, which are to be funded in whole or in part, by the annual special benefit assessments, generally include but are not limited to, all materials, equipment, utilities, labor, and incidental expenses including administrative expenses required for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of the District Improvements which have been dedicated, conveyed, or otherwise authorized for the City to operate, service, and maintain. These District expenses may also include the performance of periodic repairs, replacement, and expanded maintenance activities as needed to provide for the growth, health, and beauty of the District Improvements.
These District Improvements were installed over time through subdivision requirements, public infrastructure projects, and City capital programs, and are now maintained as part of a coordinated, citywide system of public landscape areas and public street trees. The District Improvements consist of specific public landscape areas and public street trees, which are described in the paragraphs below.
Public Landscape
Public landscape includes plants, shrubs, hedges, and/or ground cover and irrigation systems thereto; hardscape such as decorative rocks, surfaces, fences, and walls; outdoor amenities such as benches and other outdoor furniture; associated backbone infrastructure such as medians, planters, paths or trails, sidewalks or walkways, bikeways, pavement, accesses, maintenance ways, signage, utility services, and drainage systems such as curbs, gutters, and storm drains; weed and graffiti abatement; furnishing all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and incidentals, and for doing all work involved thereof; engineering; and environmental monitoring and mitigation.

As referenced in Carpinteria Municipal Code § 12.28.140, the public landscape areas include, but are not limited to, the locations listed above and may also include additional areas or amenities that are added to or accepted into the City’s maintenance responsibility in the future. These areas have been dedicated to the City and are not privately owned; they may be located within public rights-of-way or on other public parcels such as City-owned parking lots. They do not include City parks, beaches, or open spaces.
Public Street Trees
In addition to public landscaping, the District Improvements include comprehensive tree management services for public street trees throughout the District and related infrastructure.
These services may include, but are not limited to, the operation and maintenance of irrigation systems, drainage systems, and utility services associated with the trees, as well as weed and graffiti abatement, and the repair or replacement of signage, pavement, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, fencing, or other nearby amenities damaged by public street trees.
Tree management consists of furnishing labor, materials, tools, equipment, and incidentals associated with the monitoring, trimming, pruning, servicing, cultivation, maintenance, removal, replacement, and installation of public street trees as necessary to promote the health and growth of the trees and to ensure public safety and the protection of adjacent properties and improvements.
As of Fiscal Year 2025/2026, the District includes approximately 2,763 public street trees. These trees are located within public rights-of-way or in areas that have been formally dedicated to the City. This inventory reflects the City’s most recent count as of the preparation of this Report. The number of trees may fluctuate over time as trees are planted, removed, or replaced, and the annual budget for tree management will be adjusted accordingly.
Excluded Private Improvements
District improvements do not include any improvements located on private properties or private rights-of-way or easements.

Part II — Method of Apportionment
Legislative Authority and Provisions
The formulas used herein for calculating assessments reflect the composition of parcels within the District and the improvements and activities to be provided and are intended to fairly apportion the cost of providing the District Improvements based on a determination of the proportional special benefits to such parcels, consistent with the requirements of the 1972 Act and the provisions of Article XIIID of the California Constitution (Proposition 218). 1972 Act
The 1972 Act authorizes the establishment of assessment districts by local agencies for the purpose of providing for certain public improvements which include, but are not limited to, the acquisition, construction, installation, and servicing of landscaping improvements including those identified herein as the District Improvements. The 1972 Act further provides for the cost of these improvements to be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value.
Section 22573 defines the net amount to be assessed as follows:
“The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment 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.”
California Constitution
The costs of the District Improvements addressed and described in Part I of this Report have been identified and allocated to parcels within the District based on the special benefits each parcel receives as outlined by Article XIIID of the California Constitution. The District Improvements that are provided, maintained, and serviced, and for which properties may be assessed, are considered local improvements facilitated in connection with subdivision development (i.e., final maps and parcel maps). The assessments and method of apportionment are based on the premise that 1) the maintenance of these improvements would otherwise not be required without the subdivision development of the parcels being assessed, and 2) the parcels receive a particular and distinct benefit (special benefit) from the continued appropriate maintenance of the identified District Improvements.
Article XIIID Section 2d defines District as follows:
“District” means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property-related service.
Article XIIID Section 2i defines Special Benefit as follows:
“Special benefit” means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.
General enhancement of property value does not constitute “special benefit.”
City of Carpinteria
Engineer’s Report
Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
Article XIIID Section 4a defines Proportionate Special Benefit Assessments as follows:
“An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided. No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel.”
Proposition 218 Benefit
The improvements in the District that are subject to assessment have been determined to be necessary, beneficial, and, when applicable, required at the time of development. They align with the development plans and the relevant sections of the City’s General Plan.
Special Benefits
The ongoing maintenance of landscaped areas within the District provides aesthetic and functional benefits to the properties directly associated with the improvements and creates a more pleasant environment in which to walk, drive, live, and work. The primary function of such landscape improvements and related amenities is to enhance the public rights-of-way or easements in a way that supports and improves the use, accessibility, and desirability of the immediately adjacent and surrounding properties.
These improvements are typically constructed in connection with, or made feasible by, the development or potential development of parcels within the District and are therefore considered an extension of the physical and functional environment of those parcels. If not properly maintained, it is those same parcels that would bear the aesthetic and economic burden.
Certain improvements, such as landscaped medians, landscaped right-of-way areas, public parking areas, and tree-lined streets, provide concentrated special benefits to parcels located near or directly influenced by them through enhanced visibility, access, safety, and long-term property desirability. Although not every parcel is located adjacent to a specific improvement, the overall system of District Improvements is distributed throughout the City in a manner that provides communitywide enhancement. Collectively, these improvements create a distinct and measurable special benefit for all assessed parcels by improving the City’s visual character, identity, circulation, and overall livability.
Public street trees throughout the District provide shade, reduce energy use, buffer noise and emissions, improve walkability, and enhance the livability and appearance of the City’s rights-ofway. These tree-related improvements also support air quality, stormwater management, and community identity. It is acknowledged that there is some general public benefit associated with these improvements, the majority of benefits are geographically tied to the parcels served and therefore constitute special benefits. Reference materials, such as the U.S. Forest Service’s Structure, Function, and Value of Street Trees in California (McPherson et al., 2016)1 and CAL FIRE’s Urban & Community Forestry Program2, provide additional background on the ecological and functional benefits of urban trees. While such studies and programs describe regional and general benefits, this Engineer’s Report relies only on the localized, physical benefits of trees such as shade, aesthetics, stormwater management, and community character—that are directly tied to the parcels served within the District.

Engineer’s Report
Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
These functions, consistently provided throughout the community, establish the basis for the District’s citywide tree maintenance activities. The tree activities funded by the District are citywide in nature. Parcels do not need to be immediately adjacent to, or in the vicinity of, a specific tree or landscaped area to receive benefit. A healthy, well-maintained urban forest contributes to the overall quality of life and identity of Carpinteria, ensuring that all parcels within the District share in the proportional special benefits generated by these services, regardless of location.
The resulting activities provide both site-specific and shared benefits across all parcels within the District. The method of apportionment recognizes the relative intensity and type of benefit received by each parcel, ensuring that costs are distributed equitably and proportionally. Through centralized City-managed tree and landscape services, the District maintains consistent service levels, long-term cost efficiency, and compliance with the proportional special benefit requirements of Proposition 218 and the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. Collectively, these activities ensure that all parcels within the District receive a measurable and distinct special benefit, even when not directly adjacent to specific improvements.
General Benefit
In reviewing the location and extent of the specific landscaped areas and improvements to be funded by district assessments, as well as their proximity and relationship to the properties being assessed, it is evident that these improvements were installed as part of the development of properties within the District or are improvements that would otherwise be shared by and required for the development of those properties. Although the District Improvements are located on public streets or in public areas that are typically visible and accessible to the general public, it is clear that the ongoing maintenance of these improvements is necessary only for the appearance and benefit of the properties within the District that are directly associated with those improvements.
Additionally, the level of maintenance and servicing is not required or necessarily desired by properties outside the District or the respective local areas not associated with these improvements. It is also evident that maintaining these improvements, particularly at the level of service provided throughout the District, has a direct and specific impact (special benefit) on properties in proximity to the improvements. Beyond the basic maintenance required to ensure public safety and protect property, any additional maintenance provides limited, if any, indirect or incidental benefit to the general public or properties outside the District.
Some of these maintenance activities also result in incidental general benefits. Routine services such as debris removal, sweeping, leaf clearing, vegetation management, and stormwater control contribute to broader environmental quality and visual enhancement within public spaces. These activities help reduce dust, litter, and organic material accumulation, contributing to improved air and water quality and a more visually appealing public realm. While these outcomes are not targeted to specific parcels, they nonetheless provide limited indirect benefit to the public at large, including pass-through pedestrians and motorists.
Carpinteria’s role as a regional coastal destination magnifies these general benefits. According to the Carpinteria Valley Economic Profile (2023), Carpinteria State Beach attracts nearly 896,000 visitors annually, and the California Avocado Festival draws an additional 100,000 visitors over a three-day period. Tourism is a primary driver of the local economy, with visitor spending responsible for a majority of retail activity and sales tax revenue.

Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
Carpinteria’s location along U.S. Highway 101, linking Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties, also results in substantial volumes of pass-through traffic. Recent improvements to Highway 101, including the addition of high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes between Carpinteria and Santa Barbara, underscore the heavy regional circulation and multi-jurisdictional use of Carpinteria’s landscaped corridors. Source: Santa Barbara County Association of Governments (SBCAG), Highway 101: Carpinteria to Santa Barbara Project https://www.sbcag.org/highway-101-santabarbara-begins-construction/.
Based on these actual use patterns including unusually high visitor volumes, regional passthrough traffic, and the public good provided by urban forestry, it is recommended that approximately fifteen percent (15%) of the total annual maintenance costs associated with landscaping and public street tree improvements be attributed to general benefits. The remaining eighty-five percent (85%) of costs are attributable to special benefits and are recoverable through assessments on benefiting parcels.
This qualitative proportionality approach is consistent with Proposition 218 guidelines and with legal precedent, including the California Court of Appeal decision in Silicon Valley Taxpayers’ Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008) 44 Cal.4th 431. In that case, the court affirmed that assessments may be based on reasonable estimates and qualitative analyses where direct quantitative measurements are impractical or inappropriate. The analysis need not be mathematically precise but must be supported by logical reasoning and credible evidence. Accordingly, the fifteen percent (15%) general benefit estimate presented herein is supported by documented visitor use, regional traffic circulation, and environmental services provided by urban forestry, making it a credible and defensible allocation.
Assessment Allocation and Methodology
With the general and special benefit proportions established in the preceding section, the next step is to allocate the special benefit portion, representing approximately eighty-five percent (85 percent) of total annual maintenance costs, among the parcels within the District. This section describes how that allocation is determined and the methodology used to calculate each parcel’s proportional share based on its relationship to the District Improvements, including public landscape areas and public street trees. The discussion below presents both the rationale and the quantitative framework for the Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) approach.
Rationale for Equivalent Benefit Approach
The District’s public landscape areas and public street trees enhance the aesthetic, environmental, and functional quality of the City’s public spaces in ways that directly benefit the surrounding parcels. These improvements include the maintenance and servicing of plantings, shrubs, and groundcover; irrigation systems and related appurtenances; decorative hardscape; and the operation and care of public street trees located within public rights-of-way and other publicly maintained areas that visually and functionally serve the parcels within the District. These features are not general city park or open space facilities, but improvements specifically installed and maintained to enhance the properties that front or are served by them.
Each parcel within the District receives a distinct and measurable special benefit from these improvements. The method of apportionment is designed to ensure that every parcel is assessed in direct proportion to the special benefit it receives. Parcels that derive greater relative benefit contribute correspondingly higher assessments, while those that receive lesser benefit contribute less. This proportionality principle ensures fairness and compliance with the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 and Proposition 218.
City of Carpinteria
Engineer’s Report
Carpinteria Landscape Maintenance District No. 2025-1
Fiscal Year 2025/2026
The District Improvements were not established as localized or developer-specific landscape zones but were planned and implemented as part of a coordinated, citywide system of public landscape areas and public street trees. This systematic approach ensures that all parcels within the City benefit from the same overall level of service and quality of maintenance. The placement and type of improvements were designed to achieve citywide aesthetic and environmental objectives rather than to provide a greater or exclusive benefit to any specific development or neighborhood area.
Some public street trees and landscaped areas are located adjacent to specific parcels, providing those properties with a more immediate visual or aesthetic experience of the improvements.
However, the special benefits produced by the City’s landscape and tree program extend well beyond those directly fronting parcels. The City’s public landscape areas and street trees are designed, maintained, and managed as a single, continuous system that contributes to communitywide shade, visual quality, safety, and environmental enhancement. Maintenance activities such as trimming, irrigation, weed control, and debris removal are conducted on a standardized citywide rotation to maintain uniform conditions and appearance across all neighborhoods.
A front-foot or linear-frontage apportionment method was reviewed during preparation of this Report and determined to be unsuitable for this District. Such a method is typically used when improvements, such as parkway landscaping or localized lighting, are installed directly adjacent to every parcel and the level of benefit can be reasonably measured by frontage length. In this District, however, the improvements are distributed throughout the City and provide citywide aesthetic, environmental, and communitywide benefits that are not limited to parcels with immediate frontage. Because many parcels receive benefit from improvements located elsewhere in the community, frontage length does not correlate to the level of special benefit received.
Employing a front-foot methodology would therefore misstate benefit relationships, create inequities among parcels, and conflict with Proposition 218’s proportional-benefit requirement that no parcel be assessed more than its fair share of special benefit. This conclusion is supported by established case law interpreting Article XIIID of the California Constitution, including Golden Hill Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011) 199 Cal.App.4th 416, Dahms v. Downtown Pomona Property & Business Improvement District (2009) 174 Cal.App.4th 708, and Silicon Valley Taxpayers’ Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008) 44 Cal.4th 431, which collectively affirm that benefit assessments under any statutory act must be based on proportional special benefit and may not rely on frontage or proximity when those factors do not accurately represent how benefits are received.
The City’s urban form and land-use dynamics have evolved since the original landscape and rightof-way maintenance programs were first introduced. Over time, development patterns, circulation corridors, and the extent of public landscape areas and street trees have expanded and diversified across the community. While the physical amount and visibility of landscaping may vary from one area to another based on street function and available right-of-way, the overall system is planned and maintained to provide an equitable level of aesthetic, environmental, and safety-related benefit to all parcels. The District’s methodology reflects these current conditions, ensuring that each parcel contributes in proportion to the measurable benefit it receives from this coordinated citywide system of improvements.
Although certain parcels are located directly adjacent to public landscape areas or public street trees, adjacency does not create a proportionally greater level of special benefit in a citywide district. Service frequency and intensity are programmed to maintain the overall condition of the system rather than to respond to characteristics of any individual parcel. The functional and aesthetic outcomes, including improved visual quality, shade, safety, and community identity, are realized across all parcels regardless of their specific location. Using adjacency or similar

proximity-based weighting in the assessment formula therefore would not reflect the actual pattern of benefit delivery and would be inconsistent with Proposition 218’s proportional-benefit standard.
Quantitative Measurement of EBU Assignments
The quantitative framework for this methodology is based on the assignment of one (1.00) Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) to a typical single-family residential parcel, which serves as the benchmark for all other land-use types. Each parcel classification is then assigned a proportional number of EBUs relative to that baseline, based on measurable factors such as dwelling density, land-use intensity, and the manner in which properties experience the special benefits generated by the District Improvements.
Multi-unit residential parcels receive slightly reduced EBU factors per dwelling unit (for example,
0.75 EBUs per unit for parcels with two to four units and 0.65 EBUs per unit for apartments). This adjustment reflects the way multiple households on a single parcel share the same surrounding landscape and streetscape environment. The City’s landscape and tree-maintenance program provides communitywide benefits such as improved aesthetics, shade, and environmental quality that are collectively enjoyed by all dwellings on a parcel. On a parcel with several units, those same benefits are shared by multiple households, so the additional benefit from each unit is smaller than the first. The reduced EBU factors reflect this shared benefit relationship while ensuring that multi-family parcels still contribute proportionally more overall than single-family parcels and remain consistent with the proportional-benefit requirements of Proposition 218.
Non-residential parcels are evaluated by acreage rather than dwelling units. The assignment of
5.00 Equivalent Benefit Units (EBUs) per developed acre is based on the average single-family residential density within the City, where approximately five single-family homes can typically be accommodated on one acre of land. This relationship provides a reasonable equivalency between the level of special benefit received by non-residential properties and that received by residential parcels on a per-acre basis. Vacant parcels are assigned a reduced benefit level equal to twenty percent (20 percent) of that applied to developed properties, corresponding to 1.00 EBU per acre up to a five-acre maximum. These proportional factors are applied uniformly within each land-use class and create a quantifiable, transparent relationship between parcel characteristics and the special benefits conferred by the District Improvements.
The District Improvements are limited to features that provide a direct and particular benefit to assessed parcels. Although some of these improvements are located on publicly owned land, they are maintained solely to serve and enhance the properties within the District and are not general-use City amenities such as parks, open space, or recreational facilities.
This approach ensures that all assessed parcels contribute in proportion to the special benefits they receive from the District Improvements while avoiding arbitrary or uneven weighting among property types and provides a reasonable and equitable means of apportioning cost that is consistent with the requirements of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 and Article XIIID of the California Constitution.
By describing the citywide nature of the District Improvements, acknowledging that some improvements are located adjacent to parcels while demonstrating that adjacency does not materially alter proportional benefit, and by documenting the reasoning behind the Equivalent Benefit Unit methodology, this Report establishes a transparent and technical foundation for the District’s assessment methodology. This foundation provides the basis for the following section, which identifies the primary land-use classifications within the District and the corresponding EBU assignments developed for each, reflecting the proportional special-benefit relationships described above.

Equivalent Benefit Unit Classifications
The classifications below define the primary land use categories within the District and establish the corresponding Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) assignments for each. These assignments apply the apportionment principles described in the preceding section and represent the relative level of special benefit received by each parcel type from the citywide landscape and tree maintenance improvements. All EBU factors are applied uniformly within each land use class to maintain proportionality and ensure compliance with the requirements of Proposition 218.
Residential – This land use classification includes parcels developed with one single-family residential dwelling unit. These parcels represent the base unit of benefit for comparison to all other land use types. Each single-family parcel receives the full level of special benefit from the citywide landscape and tree maintenance improvements and is assigned 1.00 Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU). This assignment reflects the typical level of benefit experienced by an individual residential property and serves as the benchmark for determining proportional benefit relationships for parcels with higher densities or differing land uses throughout the District.
Residential 2 to 4 Units – This land use classification includes parcels developed with two to four attached or detached residential units. These parcels are assigned 0.75 EBUs per dwelling unit to reflect the shared nature of the special benefit received. While each unit benefits equally from District Improvements, the overall benefit is distributed among multiple households on the same parcel. The 0.75 per-unit factor provides a modest reduction compared to single-family parcels (1.00 EBU per unit) to account for this shared relationship, while maintaining a higher perunit value than apartment parcels (0.65 EBUs per unit) where density is greater and the individual benefit per unit is lower. This assignment maintains proportionality among residential parcel types and supports a balanced assessment structure across the District.
Apartment – This land use classification includes parcels developed with five or more attached residential units, such as apartment complexes or multi-unit residential structures. These parcels are identified as apartments under the County land use codes, which classify properties with five or more units as multi-family residential. Apartment parcels are assigned 0.65 EBUs per dwelling unit, capped at a maximum of 50.00 EBUs per parcel. This factor reflects the diminishing per-unit level of benefit that occurs as density increases, while still maintaining a higher overall parcel benefit than smaller residential uses. The per-unit method ensures proportionality among residential classifications and provides a fair and balanced structure across residential property types. For example, a five-unit parcel would be assigned 3.25 EBUs (5 units × 0.65 EBUs/unit =
3.25 EBUs), compared to 3.00 EBUs for a four-unit parcel (4 units × 0.75 EBUs/unit = 3.00 EBUs), maintaining consistent treatment among residential parcels of varying density.
Non-Residential – This land use classification includes parcels primarily designated for nonresidential uses such as commercial, office, industrial, hospitality, and institutional properties, including retail or service establishments, office or professional service buildings, hotels or motels, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, parking lots, hospitals, and churches. The EBU assignment for non-residential parcels is based on the equivalent number of residential units that could reasonably be developed on an equivalent land area under typical residential density. Since single-family residential parcels (the base for assessments) are assigned 1.00 EBU and an average single-family development yield approximately five dwelling units per acre, it is reasonable to assign developed non-residential parcels 5.00 EBUs per acre, with a minimum of
1.00 EBU per parcel and a maximum of 50.00 EBUs per parcel. Non-residential parcels do not experience benefit on a per-unit basis but as larger developed sites that collectively receive a comparable level of benefit from the District Improvements. Educational or public institutional parcels, such as schools, are typically exempt from assessment where they maintain their own improvements and do not rely on City-maintained landscaping or tree services. This approach maintains proportionality between residential and non-residential parcels by applying a consistent

density relationship that equates benefit across land uses. For example, a developed nonresidential parcel of 4.25 acres would be assigned 21.25 EBUs (4.25 acres × 5.00 EBUs/acre =
21.25 EBUs), while a 15-acre parcel would calculate to 75.00 EBUs but, with the cap applied, would be limited to 50.00 EBUs.
Vacant Property – This land use classification includes undeveloped parcels with no existing development, whether residential or non-residential. Vacant parcels are assigned a proportional benefit equal to twenty percent (20%) of that assigned to developed properties, which equates to
1.00 EBU per acre (20% of the 5.00 EBUs per acre assigned to developed non-residential parcels), up to a maximum of five acres or 5.00 EBUs per parcel. This reduced assignment reflects that undeveloped properties receive only limited benefit from the citywide landscape and tree maintenance improvements until developed. For example, a vacant property of 7.00 acres would be assigned 5.00 EBUs based on the five-acre maximum (5 acres × 1.00 EBU/acre = 5.00 EBUs).
Exempt Properties – Some parcels within most districts do not receive a special benefit from the improvements provided and are therefore exempt from assessment. These parcels provide public services comparable to landscaping, public streets, and other roadways (typically not assigned an APN); dedicated public easements, public rights-of-way, or utility rights-of-way; common areas; bifurcated lots; sliver parcels or other parcels with little or no assessed value that cannot be developed independently; and parcels that are part of the improvements maintained by a special district. If a parcel cannot be developed, it is considered to receive no special benefit and is assigned 0.00 EBU. However, these parcels will be reviewed on an annual basis to confirm whether the use and/or development status has changed.

Part III — Estimate of Costs
This part of the Report provides an estimate of the annual costs to maintain and operate the District Improvements. The estimated costs include all expenses associated with maintaining the City’s public landscape areas and public street trees, including labor, materials, utilities, administrative expenses, and reserves. The purpose of this section is to establish the total annual budget required to provide the authorized services and improvements and to determine the assessment rate necessary to recover the portion of costs that represent special benefit to the parcels within the District.
The cost of maintaining and operating the City’s public landscape areas and public street trees has increased since the earlier right-of-way landscape maintenance programs were established.
Rising labor rates, materials, equipment, and utility costs have elevated the overall cost of providing the same level of maintenance and visual quality that residents and businesses have come to expect. The prior program did not include a cost-indexing mechanism, such as a Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustment, to account for inflationary changes over time. Without such an adjustment, the assessment revenue in the previous structure could not keep pace with actual service costs. The formation of this District establishes a current and transparent funding framework that reflects today’s maintenance expenses and provides an equitable, sustainable method for continuing the operation and care of the City’s landscape and tree system.
Calculation of Assessment per Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) The assessment amount per Equivalent Benefit Unit (Assessment per EBU) is determined based on the District’s total annual expenses, less the portion of costs identified as general benefit.
Step 1: Establish Total Special Benefit Expenses
The District’s Total Annual Expenses (Total Direct and Indirect Costs) are $1,147,660. From this amount, the General Benefit Contribution of $172,149 is deducted. The resulting balance is the Total Special Benefit Expenses.
$1,147,660– $172,149 = $975,511
Step 2: Apply Funding Adjustments
Adjustments are then applied to account for additional collections and reserves:
• Operational Reserve Fund Collection: $114,753
• Capital Collection: $20,000
When added to the Total Special Benefit Expenses, these amounts establish the Balance to Levy:
$975,511 + $114,766 + $20,000 = $1,110,277
Step 3: Determine Assessment Rate
The Balance to Levy is divided by the total number of Equivalent Benefit Units (EBUs) in the District to determine the Assessment Rate (Assessment per EBU).
Balance to Levy ÷ Total EBUs = Assessment per EBU
$1,110,277÷ 6,697.1104 EBUs = $165.76 per EBU

Fiscal Year 2025/2026
Step 4: Apply to Individual Parcels
Each parcel’s assessment is calculated by multiplying the Assessment Rate by the parcel’s assigned EBUs:
Assessment Rate × Parcel EBUs = Parcel Assessment Amount For Fiscal Year 2026/2027, the maximum assessment rate is $165.76 per EBU, which fully funds the District’s annual expenses, less the portion allocated to general benefit.
Budget Establishing the Maximum Assessment Rate
The proposed budget herein outlines the estimated costs to fund, maintain, and service the District Improvements that provide special benefits to parcels within the District.
The City is proposing to ballot property owners within the proposed District for a new maximum assessment including an assessment range formula to fund the estimated total eligible special benefit expenses necessary to provide the District Improvements.
The proposed budget also identifies estimated expenses and the resulting proposed Maximum Assessment Rate per EBU for Fiscal Year 2026/2027. The proposed Maximum Assessment Rate will be presented to the property owners of record as part of a property owner protest ballot proceeding in accordance with the provisions of the California Constitution.
Assessment Range Formula
Any new or increased assessment requires certain noticing and public meeting requirements by law. Prior to the passage of Proposition 218 (California Constitution Articles XIIIC and XIIID), legislative changes in the Ralph M. 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 condition were later confirmed through Senate Bill 919 (Proposition 218 implementing legislation).
The purpose of establishing an assessment range formula is to provide for reasonable and predictable annual adjustments to the maximum assessment without requiring costly noticing and mailed ballot procedures each year. Commencing with Fiscal Year 2027/2028, the maximum assessment may be increased annually to account for rising labor and material costs.
The annual adjustment shall be equal to the greater of three percent (3%) or the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), All Items, West Region as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (or its successor). In no event shall the annual increase exceed six percent (6%) without conducting a new mailed ballot proceeding. The maximum assessment establishes the legal upper limit that may be levied in any fiscal year, and it is independently recalculated each year to reflect the adjustment formula. The actual assessment levied may be set at or below this maximum, depending on the District’s budgeted costs, and may remain unchanged in years when additional revenue is not required.
Any levy established at or below the adjusted maximum is not considered an increased assessment, even if it is higher than the levy imposed in the prior year. Only if the District’s budget requires an amount greater than the adjusted maximum would the levy be deemed an increased assessment, in which case mailed balloting would be required in compliance with Proposition 218.

Plain Language Summary: In practical terms, this means the maximum assessment rate is adjusted each year to reflect inflation and rising costs, but the amount you actually pay may not change if the District’s budget does not require the full maximum. The maximum rate simply sets the highest level that could be charged. The annual assessment can be equal to or lower than that amount, depending on the actual costs of providing the services. A new mailed ballot proceeding would only be required if the District ever sought to levy more than this adjusted maximum rate.
The following budget summarizes the annual costs to operate and maintain the District Improvements and shows the maximum assessment per Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU) for Fiscal Year 2026/2027, subject to the assessment range formula described above.
