EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A. INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to the provisions of the Landscape and Lighting Act of 1972, being Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code, commencing with Section 22500 (the “1972 Act”), and in compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of Article XIIID of the California State Constitution (the “California Constitution”), the City Council of the City of El Centro, County of Imperial, State of California (the “City”), formed a special benefit assessment district designated as:
Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District
(the “District”), which includes all lots and parcels of land that will receive special benefits from the maintenance, servicing and operation of landscaping and lighting improvements associated with, constructed, and installed in connection with the development of the area known as Town Center. The District was formed in 2016 and annual assessments are levied pursuant to the 1972 Act and in compliance with the California Constitution.
This Engineer’s Annual Levy Report (“Report”) describes the District and the proposed assessments for Fiscal Year 2026/2027. The annual budget for the maintenance and operation of the improvements is based on estimated expenses for the upcoming fiscal year. Parcels within the District are assessed proportionately for only those improvements and services that are a special benefit.
The District, boundaries, improvements and services, method of apportionment and assessments described in this Report are based on current development and improvement plans including direct expenditures, incidental expenses, and reserves associated with the maintenance and servicing of the improvements. These detailed plans and specifications approved by the City are made part of this report by reference.
The word “parcel,” for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number (“APN”) by the Imperial County Assessor’s Office. The Imperial County Auditor/Controller uses APNs and specific Fund Numbers to identify properties assessed on the tax roll for special district benefit assessments.
Following consideration of public comments and written protests at a noticed Public Hearing, the City Council may confirm the Report as submitted or amended and order the levy and collection of assessments for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 pursuant to the 1972 Act.
The assessment information approved will be submitted to the County Auditor/Controller and included on the property tax roll for each benefiting parcel.
B. PROPOSITION 218 COMPLIANCE
This Engineer’s Report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Article XIIID of the California Constitution (Proposition 218) and the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. The assessments described herein represent the continuation of previously approved annual levies, and do not constitute a new or increased assessment.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 3 Proposition 218 procedures, including mailed notice and the opportunity for property owner protest, would only apply if a future adjustment proposes to increase the assessment rate above the maximum amount previously approved by property owners.
C. DISCLAIMER
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, portion, zone, or subzone 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 Report and each section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, portion, zone, or subzone thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases, portions, zones, or subzones might subsequently be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
I. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
A. DESCRIPTION OF THE DISTRICT
The territory within the Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District consists of the lots and parcels of land within the City of El Centro that are part of the development and planned development of the non-residential, multi-family residential and/or mixed use properties in the area of the City known as Town Center, located east of State Highway 86 (Imperial Avenue), west of 8th Street, north of Bradshaw Avenue and generally south of Treshill Road.
The District boundary and the territory therein is comprised of thirty-four (34) parcels currently identified on the Imperial County Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) Maps as Book 044, Page 62, Parcels 008, 009, 017, 018, 020, 022, 023, 026, 027, 031, 037 through 041, 044, 046 through 048, 050, 052 through 062, 064 through 066. These parcels total approximately one-hundred and thirty-eight (138) acres, but within this territory, parcels 044-620-044 and 044-620-052 are considered exempt from assessment as they incorporate an easement and the Town Center detention basin. Specifically:
Parcel 044-620-044 is identified as an easement property located along the northern boundary of the District extending between Imperial Avenue and 12th Street. Although part of the Town Center development area and thus included in the District, this parcel cannot be developed independently if at all and therefore does not receive special benefit from the improvements and is exempt from assessment. Identified as Assessment Number 27 on the District Diagram contained in Part V of this Report; and Parcel 044-620-052 (12.39 acres) incorporates the Town Center detention basin and therefore does not receive special benefit from the improvements and is exempt from assessment. Identified as Assessment Number 26 on the District Diagram contained in Part V of this Report.
Within the boundaries of the District, parcels have been identified and grouped into one of four designated benefit zones (“Zones”) based on the special benefits properties will receive from various District improvements to be maintained. A brief description of each Zone is provided later in this report under the “Zones of Benefit” heading. The District
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 4 Diagrams, contained in Part V of this Report, provides a visual representation of the Zone boundaries showing the exterior boundaries of the District and Zones.
B. IMPROVEMENTS AND SERVICES
The purpose of the District is to provide funding for the continued maintenance, operation and servicing of the lighting and landscaping improvements that are in proximity to and provide a particular and distinct benefit (special benefit) to the properties and developments within the District. The specific plans, specifications and detailed drawings of the improvements within the District are not bound in this Report but are on file in the City’s Public Works Department and by reference are incorporated and made a part of this Report. As authorized by the 1972 Act, the improvements, services and expenses to be funded by the District assessments include, but are not limited to the furnishing of labor, materials, equipment, and utilities for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of the streetlights, landscaping and related facilities within the public rights-ofway and/or easements dedicated to the City for maintenance purposes.
Street Lighting
The streetlights to be funded by the District are local streetlights located within the District and these streetlights are categorized as either:
District-wide (Shared) Street Light Improvements, which are located on the main access streets within and adjacent to the District. These streetlights are located on both sides of Cruickshank Drive, the north side of Bradshaw Avenue, and the west side of 8th Street, and may include any future streetlights installed on these streets.
These improvements are proportionately shared by all parcels within the District. Zone-Specific Street Light Improvements, which includes street lighting on 12th Street, which benefits only those parcels that are accessed directly from 12th Street and/or are adjacent to the street. These streetlights are located on both sides of 12th Street and provide proportional special benefit to only specific properties within the District and these parcels are grouped into a Zone that reflects their difference in benefit from other District parcels. Similarly, street lighting on 10th Street benefits only those parcels that are accessed directly from 10th Street and/or are adjacent to the street. These streetlights are currently being installed and will be located on both sides of 10th Street and provide proportional special benefit to only specific properties within the District. Parcels that receive special benefits from these lights are grouped into one of two Zones that reflect their difference in benefit from other District parcels.
The maintenance, operation, and servicing of the District lighting improvements generally include the furnishing of labor, materials, equipment and electricity for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of streetlights within the public rights-of-way and easements dedicated to the City. These activities may include, but are not limited to:
Furnishing of electric current or other illuminating agent. Maintenance, repair, and replacement of light poles and fixtures, including changing light bulbs, painting, photoelectric sell repair or replacement, and repairing damage cause by accidents, vandalism, time, and weather.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 5 Electrical conduit and pull-box repair and replacement due to damage by construction and weather.
Monitoring of the Underground Service Alert (USA) network, identification of proposed excavation in the vicinity of lighting electrical conduits and marking the location of those underground conduits in the field to prevent damage by excavation. Service, maintenance, repair, and replacement including replacing worn out electrical components and repairing damage due to accidents, vandalism, and weather. Periodic repair and rehabilitation of the street lighting system including replacement of old equipment with new or reconditioned equipment; and repair, removal or replacement of related equipment as required including but not limited to lighting fixtures, poles, meters, conduits, electrical cable and relocation of street light facilities as necessary including the purchase and installation of related equipment and facilities.
Landscaping Improvements
The landscaping to be funded by the District are local landscape improvement areas located within the District and these landscape improvements are categorized as either:
District-wide Shared Landscape Improvements, include the landscaping and appurtenant amenities surrounding the detention basin located in the northeast portion of the District. Water run-off from each parcel within the District flows into this detention basin and while the drainage and flood control related maintenance and servicing of this basin is funded by other revenue sources and not part of this District’s budget or assessments the landscaping and appurtenant amenities (fencing) that surround the detention basin benefit and are proportionately shared by all parcels within the District. Zone-Specific Landscape Improvements, include the landscape improvements within the public right-of-ways adjacent to the Town Village Apartments which include the parkway areas between the curb and sidewalk on the north side of Bradshaw Avenue, the west side of 10th Street, and the south side of Cruickshank Drive; and the parkway returns located behind the sidewalks at the entryway/driveway areas to the development. These landscape areas are more specifically described as:
The parkway area between the curb and sidewalk on the south side of Cruickshank Drive between the western boundary of the Town Village Apartments and 10th Street.
Approximately 1,525 square feet of landscaped area with 16 trees; The parkway area between the curb and sidewalk on the west side of 10th St between Cruickshank Drive and Bradshaw Avenue. Approximately 3,175 square feet of landscaped area with 31 trees;
The parkway areas located behind the sidewalk on the west side of 10th St at the two entryway/driveway locations for the Town Village Apartments (4 corner returns).
Approximately 720 square feet of landscaped area; and
The parkway area between the curb and sidewalk on the north side of Bradshaw Avenue between 10th Street and the western boundary of the Town Village Apartments. Approximately 1,600 square feet of landscaped area with 16 trees.
The landscape improvements to be maintained within the District (both District-wide or Zone-Specific) are considered local landscaping improvements installed in connection
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 6 with the development or planned development of properties in the District and respective Zones. These landscaping improvements are an integral part of the subdivisions and development for which they were installed, creating a green amenity and aesthetically pleasing enhancement to the parcels served by the landscaping. Generally, the ZoneSpecific landscaping improvements are a condition of development of the parcels in that respective Zone, and the properties within the Zone would not be developed or would not have been developed if the landscaping were not included.
The maintenance, operation, and servicing of the District landscape improvements include the furnishing of labor, materials, equipment, and utilities for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of the landscaped areas within the public right-ofways, easements, and/or public areas dedicated to the City as part of the development of properties within the District.
The various landscape improvements associated with each Zone may include, but are not limited to various types of landscape amenities such as turf, ground cover, plants, shrubs, trees, and associated appurtenant facilities including, but not limited to irrigation and drainage systems, various types of groundcover, concrete paths or sidewalks, and fencing that may be maintained in whole or in part as part of the landscape improvements depending on available funding.
C. ZONES OF BENEFIT
In accordance with Chapter 1, Article 4, Section 22574 of the 1972 Act, this District utilizes Zones to address variations in the nature, location, and extent of the lighting and landscape improvements that provide special benefits to parcels in the District. Within the boundaries of the District, parcels are assigned to one of four benefit zones based on the improvements (District-wide shared improvements and/or Zone-Specific improvements) that provide special benefit to that property.
These Zones identify specific parcels and developments that receive special benefits from the maintenance, operation, and servicing of various District improvements. Each Zone reflects the improvements (street lighting and/or landscaping) associated with the parcels in that Zone in order to fairly and equitably apportion the net cost of providing those improvements to the properties that receive special benefits from the maintenance and operation of such improvements. By establishing and utilizing a Zone structure, similar properties with similar types of improvements will be assessed a proportional amount for the total annual expenses related to the maintenance, operation and servicing of the various improvements provided by the District and for which the properties receive special benefits. As development of properties continues to occur within the District and new improvements are installed, additional Zones may be created in the District and/or parcels may be reassigned to another Zone (balloted for a new or increased assessment) based on the benefits received from those new improvements.
The following is a brief description and summary of the Zones within the District. A visual depiction of the Zone boundaries is provided on the District Diagram provided in Part V of this Report.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 7 Zone 01
Zone 01 is generally located in the western half of the District and at formation was comprised of twenty parcels including parcels 008, 009, 016, 017, 018, 020, 022, 023, 026 through 036, and 044 of Book 044 page 62 of the Imperial County Assessor’s Parcel Maps.
Like the other parcels in the District, the parcels in Zone 01 are accessed directly or indirectly from the streets surrounding the District including Bradshaw Avenue and 8th Street as well as Cruickshank Drive and the street lighting improvements on those streets previously identified as “District-wide (Shared) Street Light Improvements” are an integral part of the development and use of each parcel within the District. Therefore, the parcels in Zone 01 proportionately benefit from and shall share in the costs to operate and maintain those street lighting improvements. Likewise, these parcels along with the other parcels in the District are served by the detention basin located in the northeastern section of the District, which was necessary to address the water run-off from each parcel within the District and clearly required for the development and best use of those properties.
Although the drainage and flood control related maintenance and servicing of this basin is not funded or a part of this District’s assessments, the landscaping and appurtenant amenities (fencing) that surround the detention basin are. Furthermore, because the installation and construction of this basin was necessary for each property in the District, the related landscape improvements and appurtenant amenities associated with this basin clearly benefit each parcel and the cost to provide these improvements shall be proportionately shared by all parcels within the District as “District-wide (Shared) Landscaping Improvements”, including those parcels in Zone 01.
Zone 02
Zone 02 is generally located in the northeastern portion of the District (north of Cruickshank Drive) and is comprised of seven parcels including parcels 037 through 041, 052, and 053 of Book 044 page 62 of the Imperial County Assessor’s Parcel Maps.
Like the other parcels in the District, the parcels in Zone 02 are accessed directly or indirectly from the streets surrounding the District including Bradshaw Avenue and 8th Street as well as Cruickshank Drive and the street lighting improvements on those streets previously identified as “District-wide (Shared) Street Light Improvements” are an integral part of the development and use of each parcel within the District. Therefore, the parcels in Zone 02 proportionately benefit from and shall share in the costs to operate and maintain those street lighting improvements. Likewise, these parcels along with the other parcels in the District are served by the detention basin, which was necessary to address the water run-off from each parcel within the District and clearly required for the development and best use of those properties. Although the drainage and flood control related maintenance and servicing of this basin is not funded or a part of this District’s assessments, the landscaping and appurtenant amenities (fencing) that surround the detention basin are. Furthermore, because the installation and construction of this basin was necessary for each property in the District, the related landscape improvements and appurtenant amenities associated with this basin clearly benefit each parcel and the cost to provide these improvements shall be proportionately shared by all parcels within the District as “District-wide (Shared) Landscaping Improvements”, including those parcels in Zone 02.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 8 In addition to the District-wide (Shared) Improvements, parcels in Zone 02 also benefit from the street lighting are on 12th Street which is used to access these properties and/or are adjacent to these properties. These streetlights are located on both sides of 12th Street and these lights provide proportional special benefit to only the adjacent parcels which comprise Zone 02. While the streetlights on the main access streets in the District serve all parcels in the District the street lighting on 12th Street serve and are directly associated with only the parcels in this Zone and therefore provide special benefit to these parcels.
Zone 03
Zone 03 is generally located in the southeastern portion of the District (south of Cruickshank Drive and east of 10th Street) and at time of formation was comprised of parcels 044-620-049 and 044-620-051 of the Imperial County Assessor’s Parcel Maps.
They have both since been split into parcels 044-620-056 and 044-620-057. Parcel 044- 620-056 has been developed into residential apartments with 180 units, while 044-620- 057 is currently undeveloped.
Like the other parcels in the District, the property in Zone 03 is accessed directly or indirectly from the streets surrounding the District including Bradshaw Avenue and 8th Street as well as Cruickshank Drive and the street lighting improvements on those streets previously identified as “District-wide (Shared) Street Light Improvements” are an integral part of the development and use of each parcel within the District. Therefore, the property within Zone 03 proportionately benefits from and shall share in the costs to operate and maintain those street lighting improvements. Likewise, this property along with the other parcels in the District is served by the detention basin, which was necessary to address the water run-off from each parcel within the District and clearly required for the development and best use of those properties. Although the drainage and flood control related maintenance and servicing of this basin is not funded or a part of this District’s assessments, the landscaping and appurtenant amenities (fencing) that surround the detention basin are. Furthermore, because the installation and construction of this basin was necessary for each property in the District, the related landscape improvements and appurtenant amenities associated with this basin clearly benefit each parcel and the cost to provide these improvements shall be proportionately shared by all parcels within the District as “District-wide (Shared) Landscaping Improvements”, including the property/parcels in Zone 03.
In addition to the District-wide (Shared) Improvements, property in Zone 03 will also benefit from the street lighting being installed on 10th Street which is used to access the property and/or is adjacent to the property. These streetlights are being installed on both sides of 10th Street and these lights provide proportional special benefit to only the adjacent properties/parcels which comprise both Zone 03 and Zone 04. While the streetlights on the main access streets in the District serve all parcels in the District the street lighting on 10th Street serve and are directly associated with only the Zone 03 and Zone 04 and therefore provide special benefit to only the property/parcels in these two Zones.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 9 Zone 04
Zone 04 is generally located in the southcentral portion of the District (south of Cruickshank Drive and west of 10th Street) and is comprised of parcels 044-620-046 through 048 and 050 of Book 044 page 62 of the Imperial County Assessor’s Parcel Maps.
Like the other parcels in the District, the property in Zone 04 (Town Village Apartments) is accessed directly or indirectly from the streets surrounding the District including Bradshaw Avenue and 8th Street as well as Cruickshank Drive and the street lighting improvements on those streets previously identified as “District-wide (Shared) Street Light Improvements” are an integral part of the development and use of each parcel within the District. Therefore, the property within Zone 04 proportionately benefits from and shall share in the costs to operate and maintain those street lighting improvements. Likewise, this property along with the other parcels in the District is served by the detention basin, which was necessary to address the water run-off from each parcel within the District and clearly required for the development and best use of those properties. Although the drainage and flood control related maintenance and servicing of this basin is not funded or a part of this District’s assessments, the landscaping and appurtenant amenities (fencing) that surround the detention basin are. Furthermore, because the installation and construction of this basin was necessary for each property in the District, the related landscape improvements and appurtenant amenities associated with this basin clearly benefit each parcel and the cost to provide these improvements shall be proportionately shared by all parcels within the District as “District-wide (Shared) Landscaping Improvements”, including the property/parcels in Zone 04.
In addition to the District-wide (Shared) Improvements, property in Zone 04 will also benefit from the street lighting being installed on 10th Street which is used to access the property and/or is adjacent to the property. These streetlights are being installed on both sides of 10th Street and these lights provide proportional special benefit to only the adjacent properties/parcels which comprise both Zone 03 and Zone 04. While the streetlights on the main access streets in the District serve all parcels in the District the street lighting on 10th Street serve and are directly associated with only the Zone 03 and Zone 04 and therefore provide special benefit to only the property/parcels in these two Zones.
In addition to the District-wide (Shared) Improvements and the street lighting being installed on 10th Street, Zone 04 also benefits from the landscaping improvements being installed on the perimeter of the Zone (Town Village Apartments) on the west side of 10th Street, the north side of Bradshaw Avenue and the south side of Cruickshank Drive. These landscape improvements to be maintained through the District are being installed specifically in connection with the development and specifically for the Town Village Apartment project and these improvements provide a proportional special benefit to only this adjacent development (properties/parcels) which comprise Zone 04. As previously identified, these landscape areas include:
The parkway area between the curb and sidewalk on the south side of Cruickshank Drive between the western boundary of the Town Village Apartments and 10th Street; The parkway area between the curb and sidewalk on the west side of 10th St between Cruickshank Drive and Bradshaw Avenue;
The parkway areas located behind the sidewalk on the west side of 10th St at the two entryway/driveway locations for the Town Village Apartments (4 corner returns); and

II. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
A. BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Legislative Authority
Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the 1972 Act, permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements, including the acquisition, construction, installation and servicing of street lighting and landscape improvements and related facilities. The 1972 Act requires that the cost of these improvements 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.”
Section 22574 provides for zones as follows:
“The diagram and assessment may classify various areas within an assessment district into different zones where, by reason of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive differing degrees of benefit from the improvements. A zone shall consist of all territory which will receive substantially the same degree of benefit from the improvements.”
The formulas used for calculating assessments and the designation of zones herein reflect the composition of parcels within the District and the improvements and activities to be provided, and have been designed to fairly apportion the entirety of the capital cost of the local public improvements and the maintenance and operation expenses of such improvements based on a determination of the proportional special benefits to each parcel, consistent with the requirements of the 1972 Act and the provisions of Article XIIID of the California Constitution (Proposition 218).
Proposition 218 Benefit Analysis
The costs of the proposed improvements for this District have been identified and allocated to properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements provided by this District and for which properties are assessed are local public landscaping and lighting improvements and related amenities. The assessments and method of apportionment is based on the premise that these improvements would otherwise not have been required without the development of those parcels within the District.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 11 Article XIIID Section 2d of the California Constitution (Proposition 218) 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 of the California Constitution 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.” Article XIIID Section 4a of the California Constitution defines Proportional 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.” Special Benefit
Street Lighting Special Benefit
The street lighting in the District (localized street lighting) is primarily useful for illuminating the sidewalks and parking lanes on the streets used specifically to access the properties and/or is adjacent to those properties that comprise the District. This lighting is distinct from lights that may be installed on major streets, but serve in large part to enhance traffic safety, such as the streetlights and traffic signals on State Highway 86 (Imperial Avenue) which is adjacent to the District. These localized streetlights tend to be more closely spaced and of a lower intensity than streetlights installed primarily for traffic safety such as those found on many major thoroughfares or intersections. These low-level, lowerintensity streetlights within the District provide three main special benefits: (i) property security benefit, (ii) pedestrian safety benefit, and (iii) parkway/roadway egress benefit.
Because traffic in the District is largely limited to local traffic consisting of employees, patrons, residents and residents’ guests, it is reasonable to assume that essentially all pedestrians and parking vehicles in the lit areas will, after dark, be directly associated with the properties in the District and that the vehicular traffic in this area is primarily limited to vehicles accessing the District properties rather than pass-through traffic to other properties.
In addition, the streetlights within the District are consistent with the City’s typical intensity and spacing standards for areas zoned for non-residential, mixed use and/or high-density residential development areas and each parcel to be assessed is served directly by the system of streetlights providing appropriate lighting within the Town Village development area. Furthermore, the cost of maintaining and operating each light is substantially the same, regardless of the location of the light within the District. Consequently, we conclude that each parcel within the District receives substantially similar benefit from the street light improvements on Bradshaw Avenue, 8th Street and Cruickshank Drive regardless of
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 12 their location within the District and each parcel within Zone 02, Zone 03 and Zone 04 receives substantially similar benefit from the street light improvements from the streetlights in proximity to those Zones, namely 12th Street and 10th Street and the only notable distinctions in proportional special benefit to each parcel is related to the development status of the parcel (developed versus undeveloped) and the comparable size of the property (proportional acreage).
Landscaping Special Benefit
The ongoing maintenance of local public landscaped areas within the District provides aesthetic benefits to the properties within each respective Zone and provides a more pleasant environment to walk, drive, live, and work. The primary function of these landscape improvements and related amenities is to serve as an aesthetically pleasing enhancement and green space for the benefit of the immediately surrounding properties and developments for which the improvements were constructed and installed. These improvements are an integral part of the physical environment of parcels in associated Zones, and if the improvements are not properly maintained, it is these parcels that would be aesthetically burdened. In addition, the street landscaping (applicable in Zone 04) serve as both a physical buffer as well as a sound reduction buffer between the roadways and the properties associated with those improvements. As a result, the maintenance of the District landscaped improvements (both the District-wide shared and the Zone-specific improvements) are a particular and distinct benefit to the properties and developments within the District and respective Zones.
General Benefit
Street Lighting General Benefit
Collectively, there are a total of 57 streetlights within or adjacent to the District including:
14 streetlights on Cruickshank Drive, located on both sides of the street; 11 streetlights on Bradshaw Avenue, located on the north side of the street only; 16 streetlights on 8th Street, 9 of which are located on the west side of the street adjacent to the District and 7 on the east side of the street that are considered to be a special benefit to the developments and properties on the east side of 8th Street; 8 streetlights on 12th Street, located on both sides of the street; and, 8 streetlights on 10th Street, located on both sides of the street.
Considering the special benefit discussion above, it is reasonable to conclude that the installation and purpose of local street lighting is to serve the properties in immediate proximity to those improvements and therefore the ongoing maintenance and operation of such local streetlights is a special benefit to those properties. This is most certainly the case with the internal streetlights within this District, namely those streetlights located on Cruickshank Drive, 12th Street, and 10th Street. These streetlights, 30 of the 50 lights (60%) clearly provide no special benefit to properties outside the District and because these are not pass-through traffic streets, these lights provide no quantifiable general benefit to the public at large. Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that these streetlights and the cost of maintaining and operating these lights is entirely a special benefit to the properties in the District and the respective Zones therein.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 13 With respect to the streetlights on 8th Street (Lights on the perimeter of the District), as indicated above, there are a total of 16 streetlights on 8th Street that are located along the boundaries of the District. Nine (9) of these streetlights are located on the District side of the street (west side) and seven (7) on the opposite side of the street (east side). Clearly the streetlights on the west side of the street have been installed in connection with or were necessary for the development of properties in this District and provide special benefit to those properties. Presumably the streetlights on the east side of the street were installed in connection with and for the special benefit of the properties on the east side of 8 th Street. Similar to the District’s internal streets discussed above, 8th Street (which terminates near the northern boundary of this District) is not considered a pass-through traffic street and these streetlights provide no quantifiable general benefit to the public at large. Furthermore, because both sides of the street have lights that are associated with the development areas on either side, it is reasonable to conclude that the nine lights on the west side of 8th Street and the cost of maintain and operating these lights is entirely a special benefit to the properties in the District.
Similar to the other District streets, Bradshaw Avenue (which terminates at 8th Street which is the western boundary of this District) is not considered a pass-through traffic street and these streetlights provide no quantifiable general benefit to the public at large. Unlike the other streetlights installed in connection with properties in this District, the eleven (11) streetlights on Bradshaw Avenue, located entirely on the District side of the street (north side only), may indirectly benefit the properties on the south side of the street, although that benefit is clearly general and not special. Most if not all of the properties on the south side of Bradshaw Avenue are not typically accessed from Bradshaw Avenue, but rather from streets south of Bradshaw Avenue including Imperial Avenue, El Dorado Avenue, and 12th Street. For the most part, these properties only abut Bradshaw Avenue along their back property line and in a few cases their side property line. Based on these considerations it is reasonable to conclude that no more than 30% of the benefit and related costs associated with the lights on Bradshaw Avenue would be attributable as a benefit to the properties south of Bradshaw Avenue (general benefit), with the remaining 70% of these street light improvement costs being a special benefit to properties in the District. Conservatively then, assuming 30% of these eleven (11) streetlights on Bradshaw Avenue might reasonably be considered general benefit lights (3.3 lights), these general benefit lights (assuming 4 lights) would be approximately 8% of the District’s total streetlights.
Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude from the above discussion that conservatively no more than 10% of the District’s 50 lights and associated lighting costs is considered general benefit, and it is appropriate to assign 90% of the total maintenance and operating costs for the streetlights as special benefit expenses.
Landscaping General Benefit
In reviewing the location and extent of the specific landscaped areas and improvements to be funded by District assessments and the proximity and relationship to properties to be assessed, it is evident these improvements are local improvements that were installed in connection with the development of properties within specific Zones (Zone 04) or are improvements that would otherwise be shared by and required for the future development of properties in the District. It is also evident that the maintenance these improvements and the level of maintenance provided only has a direct and particular impact on those properties (special benefit) and such maintenance beyond that which is required to ensure
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 14 the safety and protection of the general public and property in general, has no identifiable benefit to the public at large or properties outside each respective Zone.
In the absence of a special funding District and Zones, the maintenance of the landscape improvement areas within the District would likely be limited to those services and activities necessary to ensure the safety and protection of vehicular traffic, the general public, and property in general and the City’s maintenance of these areas would likely be limited abatement and erosion control services. These services (“baseline level of service”) would typically be provided on an as needed basis (likely no more than twice annually). This baseline level of service would provide for public safety and avoid negative impacts on adjacent properties, roadways and vehicles traveling on those roadways, but would clearly result in a far less visually pleasing environment than is created with the enhanced levels of services associated with the District and which can be provided with the support of District special benefit assessments. Based on industry standard service costs the cost to provide this baseline level of service is estimated to be on average, approximately $0.0222 per square foot for streetscape areas (improvement areas associated with Zone 04), and $0.0074 per square foot for non-streetscape areas (districtwide shared improvement areas associated with the detention basin). Since the baseline services, unlike the enhanced aesthetic services funded by District assessments, would provide benefits to the general public and possibly properties outside of the District, the cost of providing this baseline level of service is identified as the general benefit cost associated with the improvement areas and landscape maintenance services. Utilizing this cost per square foot and the square footages of the improvement areas in the District and respective Zones, the following table summarizes the current estimated proportional general benefit costs calculated for each District Zone:

As with most maintenance costs, these General Benefit Costs will likely be impacted by inflation and in subsequent fiscal years, these costs and funding contribution may be adjusted annually for inflation, consistent with the inflationary adjustments applied for special benefit maintenance costs and the annual assessments. (3) Totals may not foot due to rounding.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 15 B. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The method of apportionment for this District calculates the receipt of special benefit from the respective improvements based on the land use of the parcels.
Equivalent Benefit Unit Application
To proportionally allocate special benefit to each parcel, it is necessary to correlate each property’s proportional benefit to other properties that benefit from the improvements and services being funded. In order to do this, the assessment methodology assigns each parcel a number of EBUs (Equivalent Benefit Units) based on its land use. Generally, one EBU is defined as the special benefit allocable to a single-family home (basic EBU unit).
Although the single-family homeland use classification is not applicable to the parcels currently within this District, this basic EBU (base EBU) is used for most assessment districts as a means of comparing and establishing the proportional special benefit assigned to other land use classifications and that comparison and proportionality is still applicable for this District.
Single-Family Residential — This land use is defined as a fully subdivided single-family residential home site with or without a structure. As previously noted, the single-family residential parcel has been selected as the basic EBU unit for calculation of assessments and a single-family residential parcel is assigned 1.0 Equivalent Benefit Unit (1.0 EBU per lot or parcel).
Multi-Family Residential — This land use classification identifies properties that are used for residential purposes and contain more than one residential unit. The proportional special benefit and EBU for these parcels is based on acreage, at 4.0 EBUs per acre, which is reflective of the average proportional number of single-family homes developed on an acre of land (typically 4 single-family dwelling units per acre).
Developed Non-Residential — This classification includes developed properties including parking lots that are identified or zoned for commercial, industrial or other nonresidential use including, but not limited to manufacturing, storage or warehousing, service stations or facilities, retail stores, restaurants, banks, offices, hotels, recreational facilities (excluding parks), and institutional facilities including, hospitals, churches or facilities utilized by other non-profit organizations, whether those facilities are publicly owned (nontaxable) or privately owned. Like Multi-Family Residential properties, the proportional special benefit and EBU for these parcels is based on acreage, at 4.0 EBUs per acre, which is reflective of the typically single-family dwelling unit development density per acre (typically 4 single-family dwelling units per acre).
Vacant/Undeveloped Property — This land use is defined as a parcel that is currently considered vacant or undeveloped land that can be developed, but for which the use and/or development of the property has not been fully determined. These parcels are assigned a proportional EBU that is based on 25% of the proportional benefit established for a developed property in the District. The proportional special benefit and EBU for these parcels is based on acreage, at 1.0 EBU per acre.
Special Case Property — In some District Zones there may be one or more properties that the standard land use classifications identified above do not accurately identify the use and special benefit received from the improvements. Properties that are typically
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 16 classified as Special Case properties usually involve some type of development or land restrictions whether those restrictions are temporary or permanent and affect the properties proportional special benefit. Examples of such restrictions may include situations where only a portion (percentage) of the parcel’s total acreage is actually developed or could be developed. In such a case, the net usable acreage of the parcel rather than the gross acreage of the parcel may be applied to calculate the parcel’s proportional special benefit.
Exempt — means a lot, parcel of land, or Assessor’s Parcel that is considered to not specially benefit directly from improvements. This classification includes, but is not limited to, areas of public streets, private streets, and other roadways; and public easements or rights-of-way including landscaped parkways or easements; and utility rights-of-way or easements such as irrigation or drainage ditches, and channels or basins. These types of parcels (similar to the improvements) are typically the result of property development rather than the direct cause of development and have little or no need for improvements. (These types of properties may or may not be assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number by the County Assessor’s Office).
Also exempt from assessment are Assessor’s Parcels that may be identified as common areas (properties for which the surrounding parcels have a shared interest); bifurcated lots; small parcels vacated by the County or similar sliver parcels that cannot be developed independent of an adjacent parcel. These types of parcels are generally not separately assessed because they are functionally a part of another parcel that may be assessed for its own benefit and the benefit of the associated parcel.

2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 18 III. ESTIMATE OF COSTS
A. CALCULATION OF ASSESSMENTS
An assessment amount per EBU in each Zone is calculated by:
Taking the “Total Annual Expenses” (Total budgeted costs) and subtracting the “General Benefit Expenses (City Contribution)”, to establish the “Total Special Benefit Expenses”; Total Annual Expenses – Total General Benefit Expenses = Total Special Benefit Expenses
To the resulting “Special Benefit Expenses”, various “Funding Adjustments/Contributions” may be applied that may include, but are not limited to:
“Unfunded Reserve Fund Collection”, represents an adjustment (reduction) in the amount to be collected for “Operational Reserve Funding” that was budgeted as part of the Total Annual Expenses.
“Unfunded CIP/Rehabilitation Fund Collection”, represents an adjustment (reduction) in the amount to be collected for “CIP & Rehabilitation Reserve Fund Collection” that was budgeted as part of the Total Annual Expenses.
“Reserve Fund Transfer/Deduction”, represents an amount of available existing funds from the “Operational Reserve Fund Balances” being applied to pay a portion of the Special Benefit Expenses for the fiscal year.
“Additional City Contribution and/or Service Reductions”, represents a further adjustment that addresses the funding gap between the amount budgeted to provide the improvements and services (“Special Benefit Expenses”); and the amount that will be collected through the assessments. This funding gap may be addressed by an additional City contribution, reductions in service and service expenses, or a combination of the two.
These adjustments to the Special Benefit Expenses result in the net special benefit amount to be assessed “Balance to Levy”.
Special Benefit Expenses +/- Funding Adjustments/Contributions = Balance to Levy
The amount identified as the “Balance to Levy” is divided by the total number of EBUs of parcels that benefit to establish the “Assessment Rate” or “Assessment per EBU” for the fiscal year. This Rate is then applied back to each parcel’s individual EBU to calculate the parcel’s proportionate special benefit and assessment for the improvements.
Balance to Levy / Total EBU = Assessment per EBU (Assessment Rate) Assessment per EBU x Parcel EBU = Parcel Assessment Amount

C. DESCRIPTION OF BUDGET ITEMS
The following is a brief description of the costs associated with the improvements and services funded through the District.
DIRECT ANNUAL MAINTENANCE & OPERATING EXPENSES
Lighting Maintenance and Operation Expenses — Includes the cost of maintenance, operation, and servicing of the District’s lighting improvements, which generally include the furnishing of labor, materials, equipment and electricity.
Landscaping/Tree Maintenance Service Expenses — Includes the cost of the maintenance, operation, and servicing of the District’s landscape improvements, including the furnishing of labor, materials, and equipment.
Landscape Water Expenses — Includes the cost of water for landscaping improvements.
Landscape Electrical & Regular Irrigation Maintenance — Includes the cost of providing electricity to the irrigation systems, and maintenance of the irrigation systems.
Landscape Appurtenant and Facility Maintenance — Includes the cost of maintaining landscaping facilities and appurtenances.
REHABILITATION/REPLACEMENT FUNDING (CIP RESERVES)
Lighting Rehab/Replacement Funding — Includes funds collected for future Lighting improvement rehabilitation/replacement projects.
Landscaping/Tree Rehab/Replacement Funding — Includes funds collected for future Landscaping improvement rehabilitation/replacement projects.
GENERAL BENEFIT EXPENSES
Lighting General Benefit – City Funded — The cost to fund the general benefit portion of the lighting improvements, which is not assessed.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 20 Landscaping General Benefit – City Funded — The cost to fund the general benefit portion of the landscaping improvements, which is not assessed.
INCIDENTAL EXPENSES
District Administration — May include all or a portion of the administrative and professional service costs associated with the coordination of District services and operations including response to public concerns and education and procedures associated with the levy and collection of assessments.
County Administration Fee — The cost to the District for the County to collect assessments on the property tax bills.
LEVY ADJUSTMENTS
Reserve Fund Collection/(Transfer) — The 1972 Act pursuant to Chapter 1, Article 4 Section 22569 (a), provides for a District Reserve Fund. This Reserve Fund provides for the collection of funds to operate the District from the time period of July 1 (beginning of the Fiscal Year) through December 10th or when the County typically provides the City with the first installment of assessments collected from the property tax bills (typically January or February). Negative amounts shown for this budget item represent transfers from the Reserve Fund that reduces the Balance to Levy. Maintaining a fully funded Reserve eliminates the need for the City to transfer funds from non-District accounts to pay for operational expenses during the first half of the fiscal year and also provides the District with sufficient funds to address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.
Revenue from Other Sources — Includes a credit for District interest earnings.
General Fund Loan Repayment/(Advances) — This item represents repayments of amounts that had been temporarily advanced to the District from other revenue sources (usually the General Fund) or represents funds being loaned to the District for the current Fiscal Year that must be repaid by future assessments. Similar to the Reserve Collection/ (Contribution) line item, this item directly impacts the Reserve Fund Balances either positively or negatively.
Repayments are shown as a positive number and represent additional money being collected in the current annual assessment to repay a prior loan. These loans are typically for capital improvement expenditures or unforeseen expenditures incurred in prior years and Reserve Fund monies were not sufficient to cover the expenses. To ensure the ongoing operation and maintenance of the improvements, the City may advance funds to the District as a temporary loan to meet current expenditures and collect repayment of the loan through the annual assessments the following year or possibly over several years.
Generally, all available Reserve Funds are exhausted before a temporary loan is advanced to the District and the Beginning Reserve Fund Balance will be a negative number indicating the loan amount is still outstanding. A loan for the current fiscal year (Contribution) is shown as a negative number. If the District is expected to incur significant expenditures in the current fiscal year for special services or capital improvements (upgrades or refurbishing of the improvements) and the proposed assessment revenues (annual assessments) and/or available Reserve Funds are not sufficient to cover the expenditures, the City may advance funds to the District as a temporary loan to meet the proposed expenditures.
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 21 Balance to Levy — This is the total amount to be levied and collected through assessments for the current fiscal year. The Balance to Levy represents the sum of Total Direct and Administration Costs, the Reserve Collection/ (Contribution), Replenishment/ (Contribution), and Other Revenue Sources.
DISTRICT STATISTICS
Total Parcels — The total number of parcels within the District.
Total Parcels Levied — The total number of parcels within the District that are assessed.
Non-assessable lots or parcels include properties that have been determined to receive no special benefits from the improvements and may include land principally encumbered by public or other right-of-ways or easements, common areas, and/or parcels that have restricted use or development potential.
Total Assessed Acreage — The total acreage of parcels within the District that are assessed.
Total Equivalent Benefit Units — The typical single family residential parcel is assigned one (1.0) Equivalent Benefit Unit. Every other land-use or property type is assigned EBUs based on an assessment formula that equates the property’s specific development status, type of development (land-use), and size, to a typical single-family residential parcel.
Applied Levy per EBU — This amount represents the assessment rate being applied to each EBU. The Levy per EBU is the result of dividing the total Balance to Levy, by the sum of the Total Equivalent Benefit Units to be assessed.

BUDGET ITEMS
2026/2027 Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District Page 23 E. ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA
As part of the District formation, the assessments to be submitted to the property owners in the Ballot Proceeding shall include an annual inflationary adjustment referred to as an Assessment Range Formula, which is authorized by Section 53750(2) (A) of the Government Code, also known as the “Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act”.
The purpose of establishing an Assessment Range Formula is to provide for reasonable and inevitable increases in costs to provide the improvements and services over time due to inflation. The Assessment Range Formula for the Town Center Landscaping and Lighting District is defined by the following:
Commencing in the second fiscal year (Fiscal Year 2017/2018), and each fiscal year thereafter, the maximum assessment rate established herein for each Zone shall be adjusted annually by the greater of three percent (3%) or the percentage increase of the Local Consumer Price Index (CPI) from January to January. The Consumer Price Index used for this inflationary adjustment shall be for the San Diego-Carlsbad area, for All Urban Consumers during the preceding year, as developed by U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (or a reasonably equivalent index should the stated index be discontinued). For Fiscal Year 2026/2027, the percentage increase of the local CPI is 2.63%.
The adjusted maximum assessments shall be calculated each fiscal year independent of the annual budgets and proposed annual assessments. Although the adjusted maximum assessment rates will increase each year, the annual assessment rates adopted for the fiscal year may be less. If the budgets and the corresponding assessments for that fiscal year do not require an increase or the increase is less than the allowable adjusted maximum assessment rate, then the proposed assessments required to meet the expenditures may be applied. To impose new or increased assessments other than the annual inflationary adjustment provided by the preceding Assessment Range Formula, the District must comply with the provisions of the California Constitution Article XIIID.
F. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLANS
There are no projects planned in the District at this time.

BACKGROUND:
As a means to provide the City of El Centro with a spending plan for Fiscal Year 2026-27, staff has worked over the last several months to prepare the attached budget document consistent with council priorities while assuring ongoing sustainability for all citywide funds.
Development of this document includes updates to all funds while continuing to incorporate policy considerations implemented with the FY 2025-26 Budget development. A synopsis of the major funds and fund groups in the FY 2026-27 Proposed Budget is provided below.
DISCUSSION:
Citywide Budget
Total appropriations recommended in the Citywide Fiscal Year 2026-27 Proposed Budget are $146,374,278. Of this amount, the General Fund – the City’s largest fund, has appropriations totaling $45,283,385, or 29% of the total budget. The City’s Enterprise Funds, made up of Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste, have total appropriations of $32,195,167 (22%) combined; while the
City’s Measure P Fund has total appropriations of $12,989,034 (9%). These five funds represent the City’s largest funds in terms of spending authority and comprise approximately 60% of the Citywide budget.
Although the budget process continues to be challenging given ever-increasing prices for core operational expenses (staff / supplies / services / capital) and a continuing need to expand City services, El Centro remains fiscally healthy. Given these challenges, however, the FY 2026-27 Proposed Budget essentially only enables the continuation of existing service levels – whereby a majority of requests for new staffing and other program costs during FY 2026-27 have been deferred for discussion once the new fiscal year is underway. It is important to note, however, that the City has been able to implement the Citywide salary and compensation study; and has successfully negotiated new labor contracts with most bargaining groups.
Given the continued volatility of existing and future expenditure elements and the economic forces directly impacting revenues, staff will periodically present updates to this budget after its final adoption in June 2026 as the fiscal year unfolds.
Citywide Capital Budget
Total FY 2026-27 proposed appropriations of $146,374,278 include $46,035,525 in capital expenditures. Capital expenditures are expected to be incurred for a variety of Citywide services including enterprise operations, public safety, transportation, parks, and building and infrastructure.
The table below shows those funds which include capital projects:
General Fund Budget
FY 2026-27 General Fund Proposed Budget:
Revenues Expenditures
FY 2025-26 Estimated $ 51,269,083 $ 49,836,994
FY 2026-27 Proposed Budget $ 45,283,385 $ 45,283,385
The FY 2026-27 General Fund Proposed Budget reflects revenues and expenditures of $45,283,385.
The General Fund Proposed Budget is presented as a balanced budget. Specific revenue and expenditure impacts to the City’s General Fund for FY 2025-26 are noted below.
FY 2026-27 budgeted revenue of $45,283,385 reflects an approximate $6.0 million decrease from revenues anticipated to be collected in FY 2025-26, primarily due to:
• Anticipated 2.7% increase in Property Taxes consistent with current housing market activity and increase in State CPI;
• Anticipated collections of Sales Tax consistent with staff and consultant expectations given the current state of the local economy;
• Slight increase in Transient Occupancy Taxes as room rates are projected to rise due to inflation and consistent with current activity;
• Conservative projections for development and recreation-related fees and charges; • A continued funding infusion of $310,000 from the City’s Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Section 115 Trust Fund to fund the City’s expenditure towards retiree health benefits and the Actuarial Implied Subsidy paid by the City for retiree health benefits; and $250,000 from the City’s PARS (Retirement) Section 115 Trust Fund to fund a portion of the increased cost for CalPERS Unfunded Actuarially Accrued Liability (UAAL) costs; • A $2.36 million transfer in from the Measure P Fund to cover anticipated FY 2026-27 General Fund costs for all Public Safety (Police and Fire) Materials and Services / Capital and Outlay costs;
• A $690,300 transfer in from the Measure P Fund to cover anticipated FY 2026-27 General Fund Parks and Recreation program costs (Aquatic Center; MLK Sports Court; Parks & Recreation; Youth & Adult Centers); offset by
• A reduction of one-time activity including $5.8 million from the City’s Internal Service Funds (Unemployment, Workers Compensation and Health Benefit Internal Service Funds to refund overpayments of funding from multiple prior years); and other one-time revenues (Opioid Proceeds / State Grants / Strike Team Funding).
FY 2026-27 budgeted expenditures of $45,283,385 reflects an approximate $4.6 million decrease from expenditures anticipated to be incurred in FY 2025-26, primarily due to:
• Accounting for all staff positions in the General Fund as being filled for the entirety of the fiscal year with the exception of reducing these amounts for an implied “vacancy savings” factor of $968,360 (note: current value of vacancies in the General Fund amount to $2.67 million (21 non-sworn positions and 6 sworn positions); • An increase of $508,000 for the General Fund portion of the CalPERS Unfunded Liability amortization cost;
• The addition of a new Assistant City Manager position with an estimated fully-loaded cost of $237,408;
• An increase of approximately $476,000 for the General Fund’s portion of Liability and Property insurance costs);
• A capital outlay appropriation of approximately $77,000 for a vehicle for the City Manager’s Department;
• A decrease of approximately $520,000 in costs transferred out of the General Fund and into the Water and Sewer Funds consistent with the updated cost allocation methodology; • Elimination of a $6.5 million one-time payment appropriated in FY 2025-26 towards the transfer of the El Centro Regional Medical Center (ECRMC) consistent with Council approval in FY 2024-25;
• A $361,000 “placeholder” for potential future labor costs associated with the continued implementation of the employee compensation / salary survey currently underway; and the inclusion of a $62,000 placeholder for the eventual transition of 6.0 FTE Police Officer positions to Police Corporal; and
• Nominal increases to department base budgets when required to account for inflationary
increases / increased costs to provide ongoing City services.
Based on the information noted above, the recommended Final General Fund Budget is balanced.
Total General Fund reserves are anticipated to be approximately $37.95 million at the end of FY 2026-27. Projected reserve levels as of June 30, 2027 are expected to include:
- $ 3,892,006 Restricted Reserve for PARS Retirement Trust - 34,062,764 Undesignated Reserves (includes Opioid Funding of $1.61 mm)
- $ 37,954,770 Total General Fund Reserves
General Fund Multi-Year Forecast
As a means to gauge the future ability to provide a consistent level of citywide services and programs, a Multi-Year Forecast continues to be developed for the City’s General Fund – the fund where the vast majority of non-enterprise services are accounted for.
The General Fund forecast has been developed to create a forward-looking, conservative baseline budgetary outlook for the City’s General Fund and related fund balance under a given set of revenue and expenditure growth assumptions. The forecast has been built as a “base-case” model in which future years only focus on ongoing revenues and expenditures; and known one-time fiscal activity (eliminates all other one-time revenues and expenditures).
The General Fund forecast is meant to serve as only one tool to measure fiscal sustainability into the future. The model below incorporates known cost drivers, including any negotiated salary increases (of which there are currently none), CalPERS retirement cost increases, annual appropriation credits for salary savings and cost allocations, and a conservative increase in most other operating expenditures. The model also assumes conservative growth in discretionary revenue sources, including property tax, sales tax, transient occupancy tax and other fees and charges. The model is developed to demonstrate the ability to sustain the existing levels of service provided citywide.
As indicated in the model above, there is a balanced budget recommended for FY 2026-27; followed on the heels of anticipated deficits of $382,147 and $684,387 in FY 2027-28 and FY 2028-29, respectively; before an estimated $14,965 surplus in FY 2029-30. The anticipated deficits are projected due to higher expected growth in expenditures over revenues (essentially due to expected increases in CalPERS unfunded liability costs).
It should be mentioned that the $1.4 million surplus expected by the end of FY 2025-26 includes many one-time revenues and expenditure credits, including Opioid funding; State Grant Funding; and salary savings recognized prior to positions being filled.
Although each year in the forecast assumes growth factors for both revenues and expenditures, growth in core payroll only includes a $361,000 placeholder for future labor costs based on the continued implementation of the salary / compensation survey. At the present time, there are no negotiated labor increases that have been included for the FY 2027-28 and beyond. An overview of the General Fund Multi-Year Forecast will be provided during the June 16, 2026 City Council Meeting when the budget is discussed.
As shown in the graph below, total expenditures for CalPERS-related costs are anticipated to increase by $830,000 over the next three years. Total CalPERS costs of just over $8.4 million for FY 2026 -27 represents approximately 18.6% of the entire ongoing expenditure base in the General Fund.
Forecast – General Fund Balance impacts:
As noted above, to the extent forecasted amounts of revenues and expenditures come to fruition under a given set of assumptions, General Fund Balance will fluctuate between $33.0 and $34.1 million each year. The stated reserve amounts do not include a $3.9 million restricted reserve for the PARS Retirement Trust, which may be used for any future CalPERS retirement cost. The unobligated reserve amount of approximately $34.1 million expected as of June 30, 2026 represents 75% of the General Fund expenditure base budgeted for FY 2026-27.
Measure P Fund
FY 2026-27 Measure P Fund Proposed Budget:
Revenues Expenditures
FY 2025-26 Estimated $ 8,382,000 $ 12,858,312
FY 2026-27 Proposed Budget $ 9,675,026 $ 12,989,034
The Measure P Fund accounts for a 30-year ½-cent transaction and use tax (general purpose tax) approved by the electorate in November 2016 that is used to support an array of City services including police, fire protection, library, parks and recreation, senior programs, and street maintenance and upgrades.
FY 2026-27 Measure P Fund revenues are projected to be approximately $1.3 million higher than amounts anticipated to be collected during FY 2025-26, primarily due to higher sales tax revenues and a repayment of Measure P funds used towards the Police Station project from the Police Bond Fund (represents unused funding now that the Police Station project is completed).
FY 2026-27 Measure P Fund expenditures are recommended to be approximately $130,000 higher than those estimated for FY 2025-26 primarily due to higher debt service costs for the Police and Library buildings; offset by a reduction in total capital expenditures. The Measure P budget also continues to fund public safety (Police and Fire) materials and services costs; and Parks and Recreation program costs budgeted in the General Fund for FY 2026-27 ($2.36 million and $690,300, respectively). Finally, the Measure P Fund includes an appropriation of $120,000 toward recreation and aquatic special events.
The Measure P Fund has $5.62 million in capital projects / outlay budgeted for FY 2026-27.
Significant capital and outlay appropriations include:
• Re-roofing City Buildings - $ 615,676 - Police Vehicles - $ 171,089

It is anticipated that the Measure P Fund will have $6,356,575 remaining in Fund Balance at the end of FY 2026-27.
Similar to the General Fund, a long-term forecast continues to be updated for the Measure P Fund as a gauge for fiscal sustainability. The Measure P forecast includes the following assumptions:
• Transactions and use Tax revenues expected to generate approximately $8.3 - $8.5 million
annually (expected to grow each year)
• Interest Earnings funded @ $300,000 annually
• Annual ongoing base expenditure budget includes $7.3 million for towards following:
o $510,000 for non-public safety department ongoing costs o $2.4 million for public safety department ongoing costs o $690,000 for Parks & Recreation ongoing temporary salary costs o ~ $3.7 million for Police Station / Library Debt Service costs As shown in the long-term forecast for Measure P below, it is anticipated that approximately $1.3 - $1.4 million will be available annually for one-time costs (additional capital projects, other expenditures).
Expected impacts to Measure P Fund balances are noted below:

FY 2026-27 Water Fund revenues are currently projected to be approximately $955,000 lower than amounts anticipated to be collected during FY 2025-26, primarily due to the elimination of one-time revenue collections related to over-funded Internal Service Funds in FY 2025-26; and lower anticipated capacity fee collections. Anticipated rate revenues do not include any impacts likely to
result from implementation of the recently completed rate study.
FY 2026-27 Water Fund expenditures are recommended to be approximately $2.3 million higher than those estimated for FY 2025-26 primarily due to higher salary and benefits costs related to the ongoing implementation of the salary / compensation survey; and $2.27 million more in capital project appropriations.

There are fifteen (15) Capital Projects Funds that account for specific individual and groups of projects citywide. These funds consist of the following:
• Jacaranda Gardens - Natural Disasters
• Federal Highway Administration Projects - Orange Avenue Lift Station
• Drainage Facility - Lotus Parallel
• IID Facility Crossing - 8th Street Overpass
• Colonia / El Dorado Street - Bridge Road Improvements • La Brucherie Greenbelt - Library Bond Project
• Road Improvements - Police Bond Project
• Wake Avenue Extension
Sources of funding for the Capital Projects funds include bond proceeds, grants, internal funding, and other revenues. Total revenues anticipated to be received for these fifteen funds combined are approximately $10.9 million during FY 2026-27. When added to the estimated beginning fund balance of approximately $8.3 million, there is approximately $19.2 million available for FY 2026- 27 expenditures.
Total expenditures recommended for appropriation for all Capital Projects Funds are approximately $12.1 million and reside in only four of the fifteen funds – Jacaranda Gardens, Federal Highway Administration Projects, Police Bond Project and Library Bond Project. The Jacaranda Gardens Project is funded by an Affordable Housing & Sustainable Communities State Grant. Federal grants fund more than $1.5 million appropriated for a variety of citywide streets projects in the Federal Highway Administration Fund. Bond proceeds remaining in the Police Bond Fund will be transferred to offset costs formerly paid for by Measure P; and funds from the Library Bond are appropriated towards Parking Lot / Shade Structures for the Library.
It should be mentioned that the Natural Disasters Fund continues to carry a negative fund balance of approximately $404,000. To the extent future funding sources are not identified for disaster-related expenditures, the General Fund or other appropriate sources may need to cover unreimbursed costs.
Assuming all funding anticipated to received and all recommended appropriations come to fruition during FY 2026-27, there will be approximately $7.1 million available in total fund balances for future capital projects expenditures.
Debt Service Funds
There are two (2) Debt Projects Funds that account for debt payments for specific activities. These funds consist of the following:
• 2011-C Bonds Debt Service - LTA Lease Revenue Bonds
Debt Service
Sources of funding for the Debt Service funds include available fund balances and transfers in from other funds. Total revenues anticipated to be received for these two funds combined are approximately $4.6 million during FY 2026-27. When added to the estimated beginning fund balance of approximately $340,000, there is approximately $4.9 million available for FY 2026-27 expenditures.
Total expenditures recommended for appropriation for both Debt Service Funds are approximately $4.62 million. There are no more debt service payments for the 2011-C Bonds as they have been fully paid off (the disposition of remaining funds will be determined). Debt service payments for the LTA Lease Revenue Bonds are funded by the Measure P Fund.
Assuming all funding anticipated to received and all recommended appropriations come to fruition during FY 2026-27, there will be approximately $340,000 available in total fund balances for future debt service expenditures.
Internal Service Funds
There are four (4) Internal Service Funds that account for citywide costs for specific purposes. The Internal Service Funds consist of the following:
• Worker’s Compensation - OPEB & Unemployment
• Group Health Benefits - Motor Vehicle / Fleet
Sources of funding for the Internal Service Funds (ISF) are derived from internal charges to other funds which benefit / participate in the services provided by each ISF. The Worker’s Compensation and OPEB & Unemployment ISFs have historically been funded through a percentage of payroll charged to each fund that pays for City employees. The Group Health Benefits ISF is funded with charges to funds with payroll costs associated with employee health benefits. The Motor Vehicle / Fleet ISF is funded by funds that use vehicles in the City’s fleet to conduct everyday business.
During FY 2026-27, funding into the Worker’s Compensation ISF will be reduced to 8.25% of payroll, recognizing the continued adjustment to this fund to match expected costs with revenues transferred as part of payroll. The Worker’s Compensation ISF has been significantly over-funded in prior years, leading to a total refund of $3.75 million in FY 2025-26; and another $500,000 recommended in FY 2026-27.
For FY 2026-27, it is recommended that the OPEB & Unemployment ISF fund $310,000 for retiree health costs, to be paid from the OPEB Section 115 Trust Fund, which has more than $12.8 million in investments (these funds may only be used for retiree health costs).
During FY 2026-27, health plan costs paid for by the City are expected to top $5.3 million and will be funded via payroll transfers established to cover all related costs.
Total expenditures recommended in the Motor Vehicle / Fleet Fund are anticipated at just over $768,000 and include a $104,983 expenditure towards the fleet shop HVAC / Ventilation upgrades.
The Motor Vehicle / Fleet Fund is funded by transfers from other funds (General Fund / Water Fund
/ Wastewater Fund) based on vehicle use.
Agency Funds – Successor Agency
There are four (5) Agency Funds related to the City’s Successor Agency that account for former redevelopment and housing authority purposes. The Agency – Successor Agency Funds consist of the following:
• Successor Agency – Revolving - Successor Agency – Low/Mod Housing
• Successor Agency – Administration - Successor Agency – Debt Service • Successor Agency – Capital Projects
Sources of funding for the Successor Agency Funds is provided by the State Department of Finance twice annually based on an approved distribution of former redevelopment property tax increment known as “RPTTF” (Funding from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund). Distributed funds are based on an approved Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) and may only be used for approved prior debts of the former Redevelopment Agency.
Total expenditures recommended for appropriation in the City’s Successor Agency Funds are approximately $2.4 million and are essentially for debt service and administration of winding-down of redevelopment activities. Assuming all funding anticipated to received and all recommended appropriations come to fruition during FY 2026-27, there will be approximately $5.7 million available in total fund balances for future Successor Agency obligations.
