D. METHOD OF LEVY AND COLLECTION OF SPECIAL TAXES
Each Fiscal Year, the Administrator shall coordinate with the City to determine the Administrative Expenses, DA Services Budget, and Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Budget for that Fiscal Year. The Administrator shall then apply the steps below to determine the Special Tax levy for each Parcel of Taxable Property:
Step 1: The CFD Administration Component shall be levied Proportionately on each Parcel of Developed Property in all Tax Zones up to 100% of the Maximum CFD Administration Component until the amount levied is equal to the Administrative Expenses for the Fiscal Year. The DA Services Component shall be levied Proportionately on each Parcel of Developed Property and Open Space Property in all Tax Zones up to 100% of the Maximum DA Services Component until the amount levied is equal to the DA Services Budget for the Fiscal Year. In addition, the Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Component shall be levied Proportionately on each Parcel of Developed Property in all Tax Zones up to 100% of the Maximum Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Component until the amount levied is equal to the Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Budget for the Fiscal Year.
Step 2: If additional revenue is needed after Step 1 to pay Administrative Expenses, the CFD Administration Component shall be levied Proportionately on each Parcel of Undeveloped Property and Taxable City Property in all Tax Zones up to 100% of the Packet Page 319 of 839Attachment 5 Page 8 of 9
Maximum CFD Administration Component for each Parcel for such Fiscal Year until the amount levied, when combined with the amount levied pursuant to Step 1, is equal to the Administrative Expenses. If additional revenue is needed after Step 1 to pay the DA Services Budget, the DA Services Component shall be levied Proportionately on each Parcel of Undeveloped Property and Taxable City Property in all Tax Zones up to 100% of the Maximum DA Services Component until the amount levied, when combined with the amount levied pursuant to Step 1, is equal to the DA Services Budget for the Fiscal Year. If additional revenue is needed after Step 1 to pay the Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Budget, the Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Component shall be levied Proportionately on each Parcel of Undeveloped Property and Taxable City Property in all Tax Zones up to 100% of the Maximum Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Component until the amount levied, when combined with the amount levied pursuant to Step I, is equal to the Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Budget for the Fiscal Year.
The Special Tax for the CFD shall be collected at the same time and in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes provided, however, that the City may (under the authority of Government Code Section 53340) collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet the financial obligations of the CFD, and the Special Tax shall be equally subject to foreclosure if delinquent. For Taxable City Property, the Administrator shall determine the aggregate amount to be levied in any Fiscal Year against all Parcels of Taxable City Property, and a tax bill for such amount shall be sent to the City's Finance Director. The Special Tax shall be levied in perpetuity as necessary to pay the DA Services Budget, Lighting and Landscape Maintenance Budget, and/or Administrative Expenses.
E. EXEMPTIONS
No Special Tax shall be levied on Parcels of Public Property or Affordable Housing.
F. INTERPRETATION OF SPECIAL TAX FORMULA
The City may interpret, clarify, and revise this RMA to correct any inconsistency, vagueness, or ambiguity, by resolution and/or ordinance that does not materially affect the levy and collection of the Special Taxes. Interpretations may be made by the City by ordinance or resolution for purposes of clarifying any vagueness or ambiguity in this RMA.

SUBJECT:Public Hearing to Consider Resolutions 2023139 Through 2023147 of the City Council of the City of Fairfield Declaring the Results of the Assessment Ballot Proceedings, Approving the Fiscal Year 20232024 Engineer’s Reports, Ordering the Formation of the Districts, Confirming the Assessments For Fiscal Year 20232024, and Taking Related Actions in Connection with Proposed City of Fairfield Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District Nos. 20231 (Gateway), 20233 (Waterman Highlands), 20235 (Rancho Solano), 20236 (Peppertree), 20237 (Rolling Hills), 20238 (Kolob Estates), 202311 (Paradise Valley), 202312 (Downtown Business District), and 202313 (North Cordelia)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Hold public hearing.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Existing Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Districts (LLMDs) No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 5 – Rancho Solano, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob Estates, No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia do not generate enough revenue to support the level of landscaping and lighting maintenance services currently being provided. The council has initiated proceedings for the formation of new maintenance districts with higher assessment rates that will support the current level of services. In the absence of majority protests, approval of these resolutions will, for each respective district, declare the results of the assessment balloting proceeding, approve the engineer’s report, as filed or as modified, order the formation of the district, confirm the assessments against the parcels within the district for fiscal year (FY) 20232024, and authorize staff to take the necessary related actions.

(Act), to provide a funding source for the maintenance of the landscaping and lighting improvements within the various development areas.
During FY 20212022, staff identified that LLMDs, No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob, No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia were projected to have a fund balance and budget deficit in the next onetothree fiscal years if services were provided at the same levels as previous fiscal years. Due to the existing maximum assessment rates in each district, the total assessments generated in each district were insufficient to support services at the existing levels.
Staff informed council that a community engagement and assessment balloting process would be conducted, in accordance with Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Article XIII D), also known as Proposition 218, during FY 20222023 to propose to property owners the formation of new maintenance districts (Proposed Districts) with higher assessments that would adequately fund services. Each Proposed District is proposed with assessments rates that are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI), not to exceed 3%, as described below. The engineer’s report for each Proposed District includes a base budget that includes funding for regular landscape maintenance services, irrigation services and system repair, regular tree pruning, streetlight service and maintenance in applicable districts, administrative services, contingency spending, and annual reserves. If the Proposed Districts are formed and the assessments confirmed, the council is authorized to levy assessments in FY 20232024 and subsequent fiscal years in amounts which are less than or the same as the assessments set forth in the Engineer’s Report, as increased each year by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, for the San FranciscoOaklandHayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually, beginning July 1, 2024 (Maximum Assessments), without undertaking another balloting proceeding pursuant to Proposition 218.
To minimize the disruption of services while the community engagement and Proposition 218 balloting process was carried out, council issued General Fund loans of $410,000 to LLMD No. 7 – Rolling Hills, $175,000 to LLMD No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and $151,000 to LLMD No. 13 – North Cordelia on May 3, 2022, and loans of $165,000 to LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree, and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District on August 16, 2022. LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob Estates had sufficient fund balance and incoming assessment revenues to maintain services during FY 20222023 and did not require a loan.
The City hired NBS Government Finance Group (NBS or Assessment Engineer) to conduct an engineering and financial analysis of the Proposed Districts and to develop nine engineer’s reports (Engineer’s Reports), as required by the Act and Article XIII D. The city also hired CivicMic, a subsidiary of NBS, to assist with community outreach efforts.
Since early 2022, staff have engaged with property owners in each district to inform them of the funding shortfall and the Proposed Districts. The robust outreach and communication framework included the gathering of data and dissemination of critical information through postcards and flyers, fact sheets, surveys, emails, social media postings, notifications and articles on the City website, inperson and virtual community meetings, and popup question and answer sessions at various locations throughout the city.
CivicMic created a website where residents could find general information about LLMDs and the overall Proposition 218 balloting process, historical facts about their current district and the proposed funding solution, geographic information system (GIS) boundary maps, recordings of past staff presentations, updates on the Proposed District formation progress, the latest news and meeting announcements, and parcelspecific proposed assessment rates. The CivicMic website served as the primary mode of communication during the engagement process and property owners were encouraged to sign up for email notifications to ensure they received timely updates.

The CivicMic website served as the primary mode of communication during the engagement process and property owners were encouraged to sign up for email notifications to ensure they received timely updates.
Property owners also had the opportunity to join working groups, which were an assembly of individuals from each Proposed District tasked with providing input on the project process, assisting with the gathering of data and delivery of information to community members, and encouraging other property owners in their district to participate in the balloting process.
Since mid2022, Public Works staff worked with NBS to develop the Engineer’s Reports to support the formation of the Proposed Districts. Staff and NBS researched county records, building permit and development records, existing traffic data, and historical operational and administrative matters, such as budgets and previous council actions related to each district. Staff and NBS also identified district boundary lines and maintenance areas, developed critical metrics to inform the proposed assessment rates and district budgets, and prepared the required legal documents to initiate the formation process.
Preliminary draft Engineer’s Reports were provided to property owners in each Proposed District for review in February 2023, except for the report for the Downtown Business District which was released in March 2023 due to the additional research required for that district. The council preliminarily approved the Engineer’s Reports in April 2023, and will consider final approval of the Engineer’s Reports following the public hearing. The Engineer’s Reports are attached to the resolutions as Exhibit B.
If the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are approved, all landscaping and lighting maintenance services in each respective community would be funded by assessments levied against the parcels within the Proposed District, commencing July 1, 2023, and the council would undertake proceedings to dissolve the existing maintenance districts. However, proceedings for the dissolution of the existing LLMDs that received a General Fund loan could be deferred until FY 20282029 to allow the council to continue levying assessments against the parcels within the existing LLMD only in the amount needed to pay the annual loan installment. Each loan was issued at 0% interest with a fiveyear repayment term, commencing in FY 20232024 and concluding at the end of FY 20272028.
In accordance with Article XIII D, approval of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates will obligate the City to pay assessments for all Cityowned property within a Proposed District that receives a special benefit from the district improvements. In addition, the City will provide a contribution for general benefits conferred on real property located in each Proposed District or to the public at large. The assessments and contributions are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the CPI, not to exceed 3%. The total General Fund impact for FY 20232024 is as follows:

CivicMic created a website where residents could find general information about LLMDs and theoverall Proposition 218 balloting process, historical facts about their current district and the proposedfunding solution, geographic information system (GIS) boundary maps, recordings of past staffpresentations, updates on the Proposed District formation progress, the latest news and meetingannouncements, and parcelspecific proposed assessment rates. The CivicMic website served as theprimary mode of communication during the engagement process and property owners wereencouraged to sign up for email notifications to ensure they received timely updates. Property owners also had the opportunity to join working groups, which were an assembly of individualsfrom each Proposed District tasked with providing input on the project process, assisting with thegathering of data and delivery of information to community members, and encouraging other propertyowners in their district to participate in the balloting process. Since mid2022, Public Works staff worked with NBS to develop the Engineer’s Reports to support theformation of the Proposed Districts. Staff and NBS researched county records, building permit anddevelopment records, existing traffic data, and historical operational and administrative matters, suchas budgets and previous council actions related to each district. Staff and NBS also identified districtboundary lines and maintenance areas, developed critical metrics to inform the proposed assessmentrates and district budgets, and prepared the required legal documents to initiate the formationprocess. Preliminary draft Engineer’s Reports were provided to property owners in each Proposed District forreview in February 2023, except for the report for the Downtown Business District which was releasedin March 2023 due to the additional research required for that district. The council preliminarilyapproved the Engineer’s Reports in April 2023, and will consider final approval of the Engineer’sReports following the public hearing. The Engineer’s Reports are attached to the resolutions as ExhibitB.If the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are approved, all landscaping and lighting maintenanceservices in each respective community would be funded by assessments levied against the parcelswithin the Proposed District, commencing July 1, 2023, and the council would undertake proceedings todissolve the existing maintenance districts. However, proceedings for the dissolution of the existingLLMDs that received a General Fund loan could be deferred until FY 20282029 to allow the council tocontinue levying assessments against the parcels within the existing LLMD only in the amount neededto pay the annual loan installment. Each loan was issued at 0% interest with a fiveyear repayment term,commencing in FY 20232024 and concluding at the end of FY 20272028. In accordance with Article XIII D, approval of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates will obligatethe City to pay assessments for all Cityowned property within a Proposed District that receives aspecial benefit from the district improvements. In addition, the City will provide a contribution for generalbenefits conferred on real property located in each Proposed District or to the public at large. Theassessments and contributions are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the CPI,not to exceed 3%. The total General Fund impact for FY 20232024 is as follows: District No.Assessment Contribution Total20231 (Gateway)0 83,280 83,28020233 (Waterman Highlands)1,937 32,127 34,06420235 (Rancho Solano)152,115 61,878 213,99320236 (Peppertree)100 16,480 16,58020237 (Rolling Hills)7,136 129,274 136,41020238 (Kolob Estates)0 24,466 24,466202311 (Paradise Valley)59,346 171,004 230,350202312 (Downtown Business District)13,973 18,321 32,294202313 (North Cordelia)8,556 171,195 179,751Total$243,163 $708,025 $951,188These totals reflect the updates to Proposed District No. 20233 and the assessment and generalbenefit contribution for Proposed District No. 202312 under the Levy Schedule, as discussed below.
If any of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are not approved, all landscaping and lighting maintenance services in each respective community could continue to be funded by assessments levied under the existing LLMDs if services are reduced to a level that can be supported by available assessment revenue from year to year, after applicable loan payments are made.
On April 18, 2023, the council initiated formation proceedings, preliminarily approved the Engineer’s Reports, and appointed June 6, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. as the date and time for the public hearing for the Proposed Districts.
Subsequently, staff prepared a modified engineer’s report (Modified Engineer’s Report) for Proposed District No. 20233 (Waterman Highlands) to update the “Waterman Boulevard feet of roadway with landscaping improvements” measurement on page 13 from 1,136 feet to 1,600 feet. This update resulted in a 1.95%, or $3,095, increase to the overall general benefit portion and a proportionate reduction in total property owner assessments. The ballot tabulation will proceed using the ballots that have already been mailed to property owners since the reduction in assessments is proportional for every parcel in the district. The Modified Engineer’s Report is attached to the resolution for the Proposed District as Exhibit B.
Additionally, on May 16, 2023, the council adopted a resolution approving a fiveyear assessment levy schedule (Levy Schedule) for Proposed District No. 202312 (Downtown Business District) to minimize the initial financial impact to the property owners in Proposed District No. 202312. Pursuant to the Levy Schedule, the levy of the assessments and general benefit contribution for FY 20232024 shall be limited to 30% of the maximum assessment and general benefit contribution set forth in the Engineer’s Report for FY 20232024, with the expenditures for the improvements to correspond with the reduced revenues. The levies and general benefit contributions in each of FY 20242025 through FY 20272028 shall be in amounts that are not more than an additional 30% of the assessment levied in the prior fiscal year.
The next step in the formation process is to hold a public hearing regarding the formation of the Proposed Districts and the levy and collection of assessments within the Proposed Districts for FY 20232024. At the public hearing, the council must consider all protests or objections to the proposed assessments and any person shall be permitted to present written or oral testimony. An assessment ballot may be submitted, changed, or withdrawn by the person who submitted the ballot prior to the conclusion of the public hearing. Following the close of the public hearing, the council meeting will be continued to June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. Commencing on June 7, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. in the City Council Chamber, the city clerk and/or the Assessment Engineer will tabulate the assessment ballots submitted and not withdrawn prior to the conclusion of the public hearing. The tabulation will occur in public view so as to permit all interested persons to meaningfully monitor the accuracy of the tabulation process.
The council will reconvene on June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. to declare the results of the ballot proceedings and consider the resolutions.
For each of the Proposed Districts, a majority protest will exist if assessment ballots submitted in opposition to the assessment exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the assessment. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots will be weighted by the amount of the proposed assessment to be imposed upon the identified parcel for which each assessment ballot was submitted. If no majority protest exists for a Proposed District, the council may adopt the applicable resolution to declare the results of the assessment ballot proceedings, approve the Engineer’s Report, as filed or modified, order the formation of the district, and confirm the FY 20232024 assessments for the district. If a majority protest exists for any Proposed District, council must abandon proceedings for that district and take no further action with respect to the Proposed District pursuant to Article XIII D.

The council has initiated proceedings for the formation of new maintenancedistricts with higher assessment rates that will support the current level of services. In the absence ofmajority protests, approval of these resolutions will, for each respective district, declare the results ofthe assessment balloting proceeding, approve the engineer’s report, as filed or as modified, order theformation of the district, confirm the assessments against the parcels within the district for fiscal year(FY) 20232024, and authorize staff to take the necessary related actions.DISCUSSIONThe City formed 16 existing LLMDs under the State of California Landscaping and Lighting Act of1972, California Streets and Highways Code Section 22500, et seq. (Act), to provide a funding sourcefor the maintenance of the landscaping and lighting improvements within the various developmentareas. During FY 20212022, staff identified that LLMDs, No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No.5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob, No. 11 – Paradise ValleyNorth, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia were projected to have afund balance and budget deficit in the next onetothree fiscal years if services were provided at thesame levels as previous fiscal years. Due to the existing maximum assessment rates in each district,the total assessments generated in each district were insufficient to support services at the existinglevels. Staff informed council that a community engagement and assessment balloting process would beconducted, in accordance with Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Article XIII D), also known asProposition 218, during FY 20222023 to propose to property owners the formation of newmaintenance districts (Proposed Districts) with higher assessments that would adequately fundservices. Each Proposed District is proposed with assessments rates that are subject to annualincreases equal to the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI), not to exceed 3%, asdescribed below. The engineer’s report for each Proposed District includes a base budget thatincludes funding for regular landscape maintenance services, irrigation services and system repair,regular tree pruning, streetlight service and maintenance in applicable districts, administrative services,contingency spending, and annual reserves. If the Proposed Districts are formed and the assessmentsconfirmed, the council is authorized to levy assessments in FY 20232024 and subsequent fiscal yearsin amounts which are less than or the same as the assessments set forth in the Engineer’s Report, asincreased each year by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for allUrban Consumers, for the San FranciscoOaklandHayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually,beginning July 1, 2024 (Maximum Assessments), without undertaking another balloting proceedingpursuant to Proposition 218.To minimize the disruption of services while the community engagement and Proposition 218 ballotingprocess was carried out, council issued General Fund loans of $410,000 to LLMD No. 7 – Rolling Hills,$175,000 to LLMD No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and $151,000 to LLMD No. 13 – North Cordelia onMay 3, 2022, and loans of $165,000 to LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – WatermanHighlands, $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree, and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown BusinessDistrict on August 16, 2022. LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob Estates had sufficient fundbalance and incoming assessment revenues to maintain services during FY 20222023 and did notrequire a loan.The City hired NBS Government Finance Group (NBS or Assessment Engineer) to conduct anengineering and financial analysis of the Proposed Districts and to develop nine engineer’s reports(Engineer’s Reports), as required by the Act and Article XIII D. The city also hired CivicMic, a subsidiaryof NBS, to assist with community outreach efforts.

If any of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are not approved, all landscaping and lightingmaintenance services in each respective community could continue to be funded by assessmentslevied under the existing LLMDs if services are reduced to a level that can be supported by availableassessment revenue from year to year, after applicable loan payments are made.On April 18, 2023, the council initiated formation proceedings, preliminarily approved the Engineer’sReports, and appointed June 6, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. as the date and time for the public hearing for theProposed Districts. Subsequently, staff prepared a modified engineer’s report (Modified Engineer’s Report) for ProposedDistrict No. 20233 (Waterman Highlands) to update the “Waterman Boulevard feet of roadway withlandscaping improvements” measurement on page 13 from 1,136 feet to 1,600 feet. This updateresulted in a 1.95%, or $3,095, increase to the overall general benefit portion and a proportionatereduction in total property owner assessments. The ballot tabulation will proceed using the ballots thathave already been mailed to property owners since the reduction in assessments is proportional forevery parcel in the district. The Modified Engineer’s Report is attached to the resolution for theProposed District as Exhibit B. Additionally, on May 16, 2023, the council adopted a resolution approving a fiveyear assessment levyschedule (Levy Schedule) for Proposed District No. 202312 (Downtown Business District) to minimizethe initial financial impact to the property owners in Proposed District No. 202312. Pursuant to the LevySchedule, the levy of the assessments and general benefit contribution for FY 20232024 shall belimited to 30% of the maximum assessment and general benefit contribution set forth in the Engineer’sReport for FY 20232024, with the expenditures for the improvements to correspond with the reducedrevenues. The levies and general benefit contributions in each of FY 20242025 through FY 20272028shall be in amounts that are not more than an additional 30% of the assessment levied in the prior fiscalyear. The next step in the formation process is to hold a public hearing regarding the formation of theProposed Districts and the levy and collection of assessments within the Proposed Districts for FY20232024. At the public hearing, the council must consider all protests or objections to the proposedassessments and any person shall be permitted to present written or oral testimony. An assessmentballot may be submitted, changed, or withdrawn by the person who submitted the ballot prior to theconclusion of the public hearing. Following the close of the public hearing, the council meeting will becontinued to June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. Commencing on June 7, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. in the City CouncilChamber, the city clerk and/or the Assessment Engineer will tabulate the assessment ballots submittedand not withdrawn prior to the conclusion of the public hearing.

For each of the Proposed Districts, a majority protest will exist if assessment ballots submitted inopposition to the assessment exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the assessment. In tabulating theballots, the ballots will be weighted by the amount of the proposed assessment to be imposed upon theidentified parcel for which each assessment ballot was submitted. If no majority protest exists for aProposed District, the council may adopt the applicable resolution to declare the results of theassessment ballot proceedings, approve the Engineer’s Report, as filed or modified, order theformation of the district, and confirm the FY 20232024 assessments for the district. If a majority protestexists for any Proposed District, council must abandon proceedings for that district and take no furtheraction with respect to the Proposed District pursuant to Article XIII D.Proposed Resolutions 2023139 through 2023147 and accompanying Exhibits A and B canbe found on Agenda Item No. 17 on this June 6, 2023, agenda packet.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
If all nine Proposed Districts are approved, the total General Fund (Fund 101) impact for FY 20232024 is $951,188, which includes $243,163 in annual assessments and $708,025 in annual contributions.
These totals reflect the updates to Proposed District No. 20233 and the assessment and general benefit contribution for Proposed District No. 202312 under the Levy Schedule. The assessments and contributions are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the CPI, not to exceed 3%.
PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
Information about the Proposed Districts was presented directly to the property owners of the Proposed Districts at various community meetings, through various mailers, social media posts, and on the City’s website and CivicMic website since January 2022. All information was also shared with the Rancho Solano and Rolling Hills landscape committees, the Rancho Solano, Paradise Valley, and North Cordelia homeowners’ associations, and the Rolling Hills Neighborhood Network.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
The council may choose not to form the Proposed Districts. The council may undertake proceedings to levy assessments within the nine existing LLMDs. However, the existing LLMDs do not generate enough revenue to support the level of landscaping and lighting maintenance services currently being provided.

(Act), to provide a funding source for the maintenance of the landscaping and lighting improvements within the various development areas.
During FY 20212022, staff identified that LLMDs, No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No. 5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob, No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia were projected to have a fund balance and budget deficit in the next onetothree fiscal years if services were provided at the same levels as previous fiscal years. Due to the existing maximum assessment rates in each district, the total assessments generated in each district were insufficient to support services at the existing levels.
Staff informed council that a community engagement and assessment balloting process would be conducted, in accordance with Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Article XIII D), also known as Proposition 218, during FY 20222023 to propose to property owners the formation of new maintenance districts (Proposed Districts) with higher assessments that would adequately fund services. Each Proposed District is proposed with assessments rates that are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI), not to exceed 3%, as described below. The engineer’s report for each Proposed District includes a base budget that includes funding for regular landscape maintenance services, irrigation services and system repair, regular tree pruning, streetlight service and maintenance in applicable districts, administrative services, contingency spending, and annual reserves. If the Proposed Districts are formed and the assessments confirmed, the council is authorized to levy assessments in FY 20232024 and subsequent fiscal years in amounts which are less than or the same as the assessments set forth in the Engineer’s Report, as increased each year by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, for the San FranciscoOaklandHayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually, beginning July 1, 2024 (Maximum Assessments), without undertaking another balloting proceeding pursuant to Proposition 218.
To minimize the disruption of services while the community engagement and Proposition 218 balloting process was carried out, council issued General Fund loans of $410,000 to LLMD No. 7 – Rolling Hills, $175,000 to LLMD No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and $151,000 to LLMD No. 13 – North Cordelia on May 3, 2022, and loans of $165,000 to LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree, and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown Business District on August 16, 2022. LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob Estates had sufficient fund balance and incoming assessment revenues to maintain services during FY 20222023 and did not require a loan.
The City hired NBS Government Finance Group (NBS or Assessment Engineer) to conduct an engineering and financial analysis of the Proposed Districts and to develop nine engineer’s reports (Engineer’s Reports), as required by the Act and Article XIII D. The city also hired CivicMic, a subsidiary of NBS, to assist with community outreach efforts.
Since early 2022, staff have engaged with property owners in each district to inform them of the funding shortfall and the Proposed Districts. The robust outreach and communication framework included the gathering of data and dissemination of critical information through postcards and flyers, fact sheets, surveys, emails, social media postings, notifications and articles on the City website, inperson and virtual community meetings, and popup question and answer sessions at various locations throughout the city.
CivicMic created a website where residents could find general information about LLMDs and the overall Proposition 218 balloting process, historical facts about their current district and the proposed funding solution, geographic information system (GIS) boundary maps, recordings of past staff presentations, updates on the Proposed District formation progress, the latest news and meeting announcements, and parcelspecific proposed assessment rates.

The council has initiated proceedings for the formation of new maintenancedistricts with higher assessment rates that will support the current level of services. In the absence ofmajority protests, approval of these resolutions will, for each respective district, declare the results ofthe assessment balloting proceeding, approve the engineer’s report, as filed or as modified, order theformation of the district, confirm the assessments against the parcels within the district for fiscal year(FY) 20232024, and authorize staff to take the necessary related actions.DISCUSSIONThe City formed 16 existing LLMDs under the State of California Landscaping and Lighting Act of1972, California Streets and Highways Code Section 22500, et seq. (Act), to provide a funding sourcefor the maintenance of the landscaping and lighting improvements within the various developmentareas. During FY 20212022, staff identified that LLMDs, No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No.5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob, No. 11 – Paradise ValleyNorth, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia were projected to have afund balance and budget deficit in the next onetothree fiscal years if services were provided at thesame levels as previous fiscal years. Due to the existing maximum assessment rates in each district,the total assessments generated in each district were insufficient to support services at the existinglevels. Staff informed council that a community engagement and assessment balloting process would beconducted, in accordance with Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Article XIII D), also known asProposition 218, during FY 20222023 to propose to property owners the formation of newmaintenance districts (Proposed Districts) with higher assessments that would adequately fundservices. Each Proposed District is proposed with assessments rates that are subject to annualincreases equal to the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI), not to exceed 3%, asdescribed below. The engineer’s report for each Proposed District includes a base budget thatincludes funding for regular landscape maintenance services, irrigation services and system repair,regular tree pruning, streetlight service and maintenance in applicable districts, administrative services,contingency spending, and annual reserves. If the Proposed Districts are formed and the assessmentsconfirmed, the council is authorized to levy assessments in FY 20232024 and subsequent fiscal yearsin amounts which are less than or the same as the assessments set forth in the Engineer’s Report, asincreased each year by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for allUrban Consumers, for the San FranciscoOaklandHayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually,beginning July 1, 2024 (Maximum Assessments), without undertaking another balloting proceedingpursuant to Proposition 218.To minimize the disruption of services while the community engagement and Proposition 218 ballotingprocess was carried out, council issued General Fund loans of $410,000 to LLMD No. 7 – Rolling Hills,$175,000 to LLMD No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and $151,000 to LLMD No. 13 – North Cordelia onMay 3, 2022, and loans of $165,000 to LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – WatermanHighlands, $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree, and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown BusinessDistrict on August 16, 2022. LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob Estates had sufficient fundbalance and incoming assessment revenues to maintain services during FY 20222023 and did notrequire a loan.The City hired NBS Government Finance Group (NBS or Assessment Engineer) to conduct anengineering and financial analysis of the Proposed Districts and to develop nine engineer’s reports(Engineer’s Reports), as required by the Act and Article XIII D. The city also hired CivicMic, a subsidiaryof NBS, to assist with community outreach efforts. Since early 2022, staff have engaged with property owners in each district to inform them of the fundingshortfall and the Proposed Districts. The robust outreach and communication framework included thegathering of data and dissemination of critical information through postcards and flyers, fact sheets,surveys, emails, social media postings, notifications and articles on the City website, inperson andvirtual community meetings, and popup question and answer sessions at various locations throughoutthe city. CivicMic created a website where residents could find general information about LLMDs and theoverall Proposition 218 balloting process, historical facts about their current district and the proposedfunding solution, geographic information system (GIS) boundary maps, recordings of past staffpresentations, updates on the Proposed District formation progress, the latest news and meetingannouncements, and parcelspecific proposed assessment rates. The CivicMic website served as the primary mode of communication during the engagement process and property owners were encouraged to sign up for email notifications to ensure they received timely updates.
Property owners also had the opportunity to join working groups, which were an assembly of individuals from each Proposed District tasked with providing input on the project process, assisting with the gathering of data and delivery of information to community members, and encouraging other property owners in their district to participate in the balloting process.
Since mid2022, Public Works staff worked with NBS to develop the Engineer’s Reports to support the formation of the Proposed Districts. Staff and NBS researched county records, building permit and development records, existing traffic data, and historical operational and administrative matters, such as budgets and previous council actions related to each district. Staff and NBS also identified district boundary lines and maintenance areas, developed critical metrics to inform the proposed assessment rates and district budgets, and prepared the required legal documents to initiate the formation process.
Preliminary draft Engineer’s Reports were provided to property owners in each Proposed District for review in February 2023, except for the report for the Downtown Business District which was released in March 2023 due to the additional research required for that district. The council preliminarily approved the Engineer’s Reports in April 2023, and will consider final approval of the Engineer’s Reports following the public hearing. The Engineer’s Reports are attached to the resolutions as Exhibit B.
If the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are approved, all landscaping and lighting maintenance services in each respective community would be funded by assessments levied against the parcels within the Proposed District, commencing July 1, 2023, and the council would undertake proceedings to dissolve the existing maintenance districts. However, proceedings for the dissolution of the existing LLMDs that received a General Fund loan could be deferred until FY 20282029 to allow the council to continue levying assessments against the parcels within the existing LLMD only in the amount needed to pay the annual loan installment. Each loan was issued at 0% interest with a fiveyear repayment term, commencing in FY 20232024 and concluding at the end of FY 20272028.
In accordance with Article XIII D, approval of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates will obligate the City to pay assessments for all Cityowned property within a Proposed District that receives a special benefit from the district improvements. In addition, the City will provide a contribution for general benefits conferred on real property located in each Proposed District or to the public at large. The assessments and contributions are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the CPI, not to exceed 3%. The total General Fund impact for FY 20232024 is as follows:

If any of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are not approved, all landscaping and lighting maintenance services in each respective community could continue to be funded by assessments levied under the existing LLMDs if services are reduced to a level that can be supported by available assessment revenue from year to year, after applicable loan payments are made.
On April 18, 2023, the council initiated formation proceedings, preliminarily approved the Engineer’s Reports, and appointed June 6, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. as the date and time for the public hearing for the Proposed Districts.
Subsequently, staff prepared a modified engineer’s report (Modified Engineer’s Report) for Proposed District No. 20233 (Waterman Highlands) to update the “Waterman Boulevard feet of roadway with landscaping improvements” measurement on page 13 from 1,136 feet to 1,600 feet. This update resulted in a 1.95%, or $3,095, increase to the overall general benefit portion and a proportionate reduction in total property owner assessments. The ballot tabulation will proceed using the ballots that have already been mailed to property owners since the reduction in assessments is proportional for every parcel in the district. The Modified Engineer’s Report is attached to the resolution for the Proposed District as Exhibit B.
Additionally, on May 16, 2023, the council adopted a resolution approving a fiveyear assessment levy schedule (Levy Schedule) for Proposed District No. 202312 (Downtown Business District) to minimize the initial financial impact to the property owners in Proposed District No. 202312. Pursuant to the Levy Schedule, the levy of the assessments and general benefit contribution for FY 20232024 shall be limited to 30% of the maximum assessment and general benefit contribution set forth in the Engineer’s Report for FY 20232024, with the expenditures for the improvements to correspond with the reduced revenues. The levies and general benefit contributions in each of FY 20242025 through FY 20272028 shall be in amounts that are not more than an additional 30% of the assessment levied in the prior fiscal year.
The next step in the formation process is to hold a public hearing regarding the formation of the Proposed Districts and the levy and collection of assessments within the Proposed Districts for FY 20232024. At the public hearing, the council must consider all protests or objections to the proposed assessments and any person shall be permitted to present written or oral testimony. An assessment ballot may be submitted, changed, or withdrawn by the person who submitted the ballot prior to the conclusion of the public hearing. Following the close of the public hearing, the council meeting will be continued to June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. Commencing on June 7, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. in the City Council Chamber, the city clerk and/or the Assessment Engineer will tabulate the assessment ballots submitted and not withdrawn prior to the conclusion of the public hearing. The tabulation will occur in public view so as to permit all interested persons to meaningfully monitor the accuracy of the tabulation process.
The council will reconvene on June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. to declare the results of the ballot proceedings and consider the resolutions.
For each of the Proposed Districts, a majority protest will exist if assessment ballots submitted in opposition to the assessment exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the assessment. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots will be weighted by the amount of the proposed assessment to be imposed upon the identified parcel for which each assessment ballot was submitted. If no majority protest exists for a Proposed District, the council may adopt the applicable resolution to declare the results of the assessment ballot proceedings, approve the Engineer’s Report, as filed or modified, order the formation of the district, and confirm the FY 20232024 assessments for the district. If a majority protest exists for any Proposed District, council must abandon proceedings for that district and take no further action with respect to the Proposed District pursuant to Article XIII D.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
If all nine Proposed Districts are approved, the total General Fund (Fund 101) impact for FY 20232024 is $951,188, which includes $243,163 in annual assessments and $708,025 in annual contributions.

Subsequently, staff prepared a modified engineer’s report (Modified Engineer’s Report) for ProposedDistrict No. 20233 (Waterman Highlands) to update the “Waterman Boulevard feet of roadway withlandscaping improvements” measurement on page 13 from 1,136 feet to 1,600 feet. This updateresulted in a 1.95%, or $3,095, increase to the overall general benefit portion and a proportionatereduction in total property owner assessments. The ballot tabulation will proceed using the ballots thathave already been mailed to property owners since the reduction in assessments is proportional forevery parcel in the district. The Modified Engineer’s Report is attached to the resolution for theProposed District as Exhibit B. Additionally, on May 16, 2023, the council adopted a resolution approving a fiveyear assessment levyschedule (Levy Schedule) for Proposed District No. 202312 (Downtown Business District) to minimizethe initial financial impact to the property owners in Proposed District No. 202312. Pursuant to the LevySchedule, the levy of the assessments and general benefit contribution for FY 20232024 shall belimited to 30% of the maximum assessment and general benefit contribution set forth in the Engineer’sReport for FY 20232024, with the expenditures for the improvements to correspond with the reducedrevenues. The levies and general benefit contributions in each of FY 20242025 through FY 20272028shall be in amounts that are not more than an additional 30% of the assessment levied in the prior fiscalyear. The next step in the formation process is to hold a public hearing regarding the formation of theProposed Districts and the levy and collection of assessments within the Proposed Districts for FY20232024. At the public hearing, the council must consider all protests or objections to the proposedassessments and any person shall be permitted to present written or oral testimony. An assessmentballot may be submitted, changed, or withdrawn by the person who submitted the ballot prior to theconclusion of the public hearing. Following the close of the public hearing, the council meeting will becontinued to June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. Commencing on June 7, 2023, at 9:00 a.m. in the City CouncilChamber, the city clerk and/or the Assessment Engineer will tabulate the assessment ballots submittedand not withdrawn prior to the conclusion of the public hearing. The tabulation will occur in public viewso as to permit all interested persons to meaningfully monitor the accuracy of the tabulation process.The council will reconvene on June 7, 2023, at 6:00 p.m. to declare the results of the ballot proceedingsand consider the resolutions. For each of the Proposed Districts, a majority protest will exist if assessment ballots submitted inopposition to the assessment exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the assessment. In tabulating theballots, the ballots will be weighted by the amount of the proposed assessment to be imposed upon theidentified parcel for which each assessment ballot was submitted. If no majority protest exists for aProposed District, the council may adopt the applicable resolution to declare the results of theassessment ballot proceedings, approve the Engineer’s Report, as filed or modified, order theformation of the district, and confirm the FY 20232024 assessments for the district. If a majority protestexists for any Proposed District, council must abandon proceedings for that district and take no furtheraction with respect to the Proposed District pursuant to Article XIII D.FINANCIAL IMPACTIf all nine Proposed Districts are approved, the total General Fund (Fund 101) impact for FY 20232024 is $951,188, which includes $243,163 in annual assessments and $708,025 in annual contributions.
These totals reflect the updates to Proposed District No. 20233 and the assessment and general benefit contribution for Proposed District No. 202312 under the Levy Schedule. The assessments and contributions are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the CPI, not to exceed 3%.
PUBLIC CONTACT/ADVISORY BODY RECOMMENDATION
Information about the Proposed Districts was presented directly to the property owners of the Proposed Districts at various community meetings, through various mailers, social media posts, and on the City’s website and CivicMic website since January 2022. All information was also shared with the Rancho Solano and Rolling Hills landscape committees, the Rancho Solano, Paradise Valley, and North Cordelia homeowners’ associations, and the Rolling Hills Neighborhood Network.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
The council may choose not to form the Proposed Districts. The council may undertake proceedings to levy assessments within the nine existing LLMDs. However, the existing LLMDs do not generate enough revenue to support the level of landscaping and lighting maintenance services currently being provided.

Agenda Item No: 18.AGENDA REPORTDATE:June 6, 2023 TO:Mayor and City CouncilFROM:David Gassaway, City ManagerSUBJECT:Tabulation of Ballots Regarding Resolutions 2023139 Through 2023147 of the CityCouncil of the City of Fairfield Declaring the Results of the Assessment BallotProceedings, Approving the Fiscal Year 20232024 Engineer’s Reports, Ordering theFormation of the Districts, Confirming the Assessments For Fiscal Year 20232024,and Taking Related Actions in Connection with Proposed City of Fairfield Landscapingand Lighting Maintenance District Nos. 20231 (Gateway), 20233 (WatermanHighlands), 20235 (Rancho Solano), 20236 (Peppertree), 20237 (Rolling Hills),20238 (Kolob Estates), 202311 (Paradise Valley), 202312 (Downtown BusinessDistrict), and 202313 (North Cordelia)RECOMMENDED ACTIONConduct tabulation of ballots and adopt resolutions.STATEMENT OF ISSUEExisting Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Districts (LLMDs) No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – WatermanHighlands, No. 5 – Rancho Solano, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob Estates,No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia donot generate enough revenue to support the level of landscaping and lighting maintenance servicescurrently being provided. The council has initiated proceedings for the formation of new maintenancedistricts with higher assessment rates that will support the current level of services. In the absence ofmajority protests, approval of these resolutions will, for each respective district, declare the results ofthe assessment balloting proceeding, approve the engineer’s report, as filed or as modified, order theformation of the district, confirm the assessments against the parcels within the district for fiscal year(FY) 20232024, and authorize staff to take the necessary related actions.DISCUSSIONThe City formed 16 existing LLMDs under the State of California Landscaping and Lighting Act of1972, California Streets and Highways Code Section 22500, et seq. (Act), to provide a funding sourcefor the maintenance of the landscaping and lighting improvements within the various developmentareas. During FY 20212022, staff identified that LLMDs, No. 1 – Gateway, No. 3 – Waterman Highlands, No.5 – Smith Ranch, No. 6 – Peppertree, No. 7 – Rolling Hills, No. 8 – Kolob, No. 11 – Paradise ValleyNorth, No. 12 – Downtown Business District, and No. 13 – North Cordelia were projected to have afund balance and budget deficit in the next onetothree fiscal years if services were provided at thesame levels as previous fiscal years. Due to the existing maximum assessment rates in each district,the total assessments generated in each district were insufficient to support services at the existinglevels. Staff informed council that a community engagement and assessment balloting process would beconducted, in accordance with Article XIII D of the California Constitution (Article XIII D), also known asProposition 218, during FY 20222023 to propose to property owners the formation of newmaintenance districts (Proposed Districts) with higher assessments that would adequately fundservices. Each Proposed District is proposed with assessments rates that are subject to annualincreases equal to the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI), not to exceed 3%, asdescribed below. The engineer’s report for each Proposed District includes a base budget thatincludes funding for regular landscape maintenance services, irrigation services and system repair,regular tree pruning, streetlight service and maintenance in applicable districts, administrative services,contingency spending, and annual reserves. If the Proposed Districts are formed and the assessmentsconfirmed, the council is authorized to levy assessments in FY 20232024 and subsequent fiscal yearsin amounts which are less than or the same as the assessments set forth in the Engineer’s Report, asincreased each year by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for allUrban Consumers, for the San FranciscoOaklandHayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually,beginning July 1, 2024 (Maximum Assessments), without undertaking another balloting proceedingpursuant to Proposition 218.To minimize the disruption of services while the community engagement and Proposition 218 ballotingprocess was carried out, council issued General Fund loans of $410,000 to LLMD No. 7 – Rolling Hills,$175,000 to LLMD No. 11 – Paradise Valley North, and $151,000 to LLMD No. 13 – North Cordelia onMay 3, 2022, and loans of $165,000 to LLMD No. 1 – Gateway, $28,000 to LLMD No. 3 – WatermanHighlands, $28,000 to LLMD No. 6 – Peppertree, and $40,000 to LLMD No. 12 – Downtown BusinessDistrict on August 16, 2022. LLMDs No. 5 – Smith Ranch and No. 8 – Kolob Estates had sufficient fundbalance and incoming assessment revenues to maintain services during FY 20222023 and did notrequire a loan.The City hired NBS Government Finance Group (NBS or Assessment Engineer) to conduct anengineering and financial analysis of the Proposed Districts and to develop nine engineer’s reports(Engineer’s Reports), as required by the Act and Article XIII D. The city also hired CivicMic, a subsidiaryof NBS, to assist with community outreach efforts. Since early 2022, staff have engaged with property owners in each district to inform them of the fundingshortfall and the Proposed Districts. The robust outreach and communication framework included thegathering of data and dissemination of critical information through postcards and flyers, fact sheets,surveys, emails, social media postings, notifications and articles on the City website, inperson andvirtual community meetings, and popup question and answer sessions at various locations throughoutthe city. CivicMic created a website where residents could find general information about LLMDs and theoverall Proposition 218 balloting process, historical facts about their current district and the proposedfunding solution, geographic information system (GIS) boundary maps, recordings of past staffpresentations, updates on the Proposed District formation progress, the latest news and meetingannouncements, and parcelspecific proposed assessment rates. The CivicMic website served as theprimary mode of communication during the engagement process and property owners wereencouraged to sign up for email notifications to ensure they received timely updates. Property owners also had the opportunity to join working groups, which were an assembly of individualsfrom each Proposed District tasked with providing input on the project process, assisting with thegathering of data and delivery of information to community members, and encouraging other propertyowners in their district to participate in the balloting process. Since mid2022, Public Works staff worked with NBS to develop the Engineer’s Reports to support theformation of the Proposed Districts. Staff and NBS researched county records, building permit anddevelopment records, existing traffic data, and historical operational and administrative matters, suchas budgets and previous council actions related to each district. Staff and NBS also identified districtboundary lines and maintenance areas, developed critical metrics to inform the proposed assessmentrates and district budgets, and prepared the required legal documents to initiate the formationprocess. Preliminary draft Engineer’s Reports were provided to property owners in each Proposed District forreview in February 2023, except for the report for the Downtown Business District which was releasedin March 2023 due to the additional research required for that district. The council preliminarilyapproved the Engineer’s Reports in April 2023, and will consider final approval of the Engineer’sReports following the public hearing. The Engineer’s Reports are attached to the resolutions as ExhibitB.If the Proposed Districts and assessment rates are approved, all landscaping and lighting maintenanceservices in each respective community would be funded by assessments levied against the parcelswithin the Proposed District, commencing July 1, 2023, and the council would undertake proceedings todissolve the existing maintenance districts. However, proceedings for the dissolution of the existingLLMDs that received a General Fund loan could be deferred until FY 20282029 to allow the council tocontinue levying assessments against the parcels within the existing LLMD only in the amount neededto pay the annual loan installment. Each loan was issued at 0% interest with a fiveyear repayment term,commencing in FY 20232024 and concluding at the end of FY 20272028. In accordance with Article XIII D, approval of the Proposed Districts and assessment rates will obligatethe City to pay assessments for all Cityowned property within a Proposed District that receives aspecial benefit from the district improvements. In addition, the City will provide a contribution for generalbenefits conferred on real property located in each Proposed District or to the public at large. Theassessments and contributions are subject to annual increases equal to the annual change in the CPI,not to exceed 3%.

City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 1
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 District History
The City of Fairfield (“City”) desires to fund certain landscaping and lighting services and improvements as described in Section 2 of this Report through an annual assessment. The proposed assessment is subject to the substantive and procedural requirements described in Section 4, Article XIII D of the California Constitution (“Article XIII D”). The assessment is authorized pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (Streets and Highways Code Section 22500, et seq.) (the “Act”).
The City currently has an existing assessment district which funds various services and improvements including lighting, landscaping, and the associated maintenance, operation, and servicing within the boundary of Maintenance District No. 1 – Gateway. As the existing assessment district does not provide sufficient revenue for the services and improvements, the City proposes to form a new assessment district that is intended to provide sufficient revenue to fund ongoing annual associated maintenance, operation, and servicing of the landscaping and lighting improvements; reserve funds for replacement and repair of the improvements; and an allowance for an annual inflator so the assessment rate may be increased over time as costs increase without conducting a new Article XIII D balloting proceeding. The proposed assessment district is the City of Fairfield Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) (“District”).
1.2 Legislative Context
In 1996, California voters adopted Proposition 218, known as the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act,” which added Articles XIII C and XIII D to the California Constitution. Article XIII D established new substantive and procedural requirements on agencies for levying assessments, being levies on real property by an agency for a special benefit conferred upon the real property. “Special benefit” is defined in Article XIII D as “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on a real property located in the district or to the public at large.”
Article XIII D imposes five basic substantive requirements on assessments:
(1) All parcels that will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed must be identified;
(2) The general benefits must be distinguished from the special benefits conferred on the parcels;
(3) The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel must 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;
(4) The amount assessed to a parcel must not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel and must not include any costs attributable to the general benefit; and
Packet Page 381 of 839Attachment 19 Page 3 of 30
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 2 (5) Parcels within a district that are owned or used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.
Article XIII D also places procedural requirements on assessments, which include preparing an engineer’s report, providing written notice of the proposed assessment and a public hearing to property owners, holding a public hearing, and providing for a protest ballot proceeding.
1.3 Court Rulings
Since the initial passage of Proposition 218, several court rulings have helped provide context and direction with respect to the procedures and requirements of Article XIII D for levying assessments. Several of the key concepts from these rulings are summarized below.
1.3.1 GENERAL BENEFIT
Article XIII D requires an agency to separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on the identified parcels because only special benefits are assessable.
The Court of Appeal in Golden Hills Neighborhood Assn., Inc. v. City of San Diego (2011) (“Golden Hills”) clarified this concept by stating, “Separation and quantification of general and special benefits must be accomplished by apportioning the cost of a service or improvement between the two and assessing property owners only for the portion of the cost representing special benefits.” The Court of Appeal in Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010) (“Beutz”) noted that the trial court took judicial notice of the Legislative Analyst’s Office pamphlet titled “Understanding Proposition 218” which states an agency must, “estimate the amount of special benefit landowners would receive from the project or service, as well as the amount of ‘general benefit.’ This step is needed because Proposition 218 allows local government to recoup from assessments only the proportionate share of cost to provide the special benefit.”
The Court in Beutz furthered this idea stating, “Separating the general from the special benefits of a public improvement project and estimating the quantity of each in relation to the other is essential if an assessment is to be limited to the special benefits.”
The Court of Appeal again reiterated the need to separate, quantify and apportion costs to general benefits from the improvements in Broad Beach Geologic Hazard Abatement District v 31506 Victoria Point LLC (2022), stating, “The District cites no authority, and we are aware of none, suggesting that an agency’s subjective intent determines the need to account for general benefits.”
1.3.2 BENEFIT-BASED NOT COST-BASED
In Town of Tiburon v. Bonander (2009) (“Tiburon”), the Court of Appeal clarified the idea that assessments must be apportioned based upon benefit rather than cost. The Court stated, “Proportionate special benefit is the basis upon which a project’s total assessable costs are apportioned among parcels within an assessment district.”
Packet Page 382 of 839Attachment 19 Page 4 of 30
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 3 The assessment on a particular property cannot be based on the relative cost of the improvements to the property, but rather on the special benefit conferred on such property. The Court in Tiburon also stated, “an assessment represents the entirety of the cost of the improvement or property-related service, less any amount attributable to general benefits (which may not be assessed), allocated to individual properties in proportion to the relative special benefit conferred on the property.”
1.3.3 MEASURING AND APPORTIONING SPECIAL BENEFIT
The Court in Tiburon acknowledged the difficulty of trying to precisely assign and measure special benefit, stating, “Any attempt to classify special benefits conferred on particular properties and to assign relative weights to those benefits will necessarily involve some degree of imprecision.” The Court in Tiburon went on to say that a formula assigning equal weight to different special benefits “may be a legally justifiable approach to measuring and apportioning special benefits, [but] it is not necessarily the only valid approach. Whichever approach is taken to measuring and apportioning special benefits, however, it must be both defensible and consistently applied.”

Currently, there are 70 total street lights within the District and the general location of the Improvements within the District is shown in the illustration above.
2.2 Street Trees and Other Landscaping
The Improvements include the maintenance, operation, and servicing of street trees and landscaping throughout the boundary of the District, as identified in the above illustrative map. The Improvements are generally described as: the maintenance, operation, and servicing of trees, landscape and appurtenant facilities in the public right of way areas, as well as open space, trails and green belt areas dispersed throughout the District. Eligible District costs may include, but are not limited to, personnel, furnishing electrical energy, utilities such as water and gas, materials, contracting services, and other items necessary for the satisfactory operation of these services described as follows:
The improvements authorized to be maintained and serviced include, but are not limited to: groundcover, turf, trees, shrubs, planters, the landscaped areas and weed abatement of open spaces, and may also include sidewalk and hardscape Improvements, entry monuments and associated appurtenant facilities.
There is approximately 365,228 square feet of landscape maintenance area and 651 street trees within the District. The general location of the Improvements within the District is described as follows:
1. Landscaping improvements on median islands and on both sides of Gateway Boulevard, Gateway Court, Maupin Lane, B. Gale Wilson Boulevard, B. Gale Wilson Drive, and Oxford Drive from the curb to the parking lot.

3. BENEFITS
The Improvements will confer special benefits upon certain parcels within the District. These benefits are summarized in the table below:
Improvement Benefit(s)
Street Lighting Improved Safety
Improved Accessibility
Street Trees and Other Landscaping Improved Aesthetics
Increased Economic Activity
The special benefits to be conferred by the Improvements are detailed below.
3.1 Street Lighting
3.1.1 IMPROVED SAFETY AND ACCESSIBILITY
The street lighting Improvements will confer safety benefits to assessable parcels in close proximity to lighting. This benefit extends to property, as adequate lighting should decrease vandalism and other property-related crime. As noted in one report, “Published studies having different methodologies tend to converge on an overall average reported 20% to 30% reduction in nighttime crash risk from lighting” (National Cooperative Highway Research Program Transportation Research Board of The National Academies, 2009). The same report also states, “… lighting has a positive effect on reducing crime ...” The Improvements will also provide improved safety benefits by facilitating a more efficient and safer flow of traffic to and from properties within the District between the dusk and dawn hours. It is a well-accepted fact that pedestrian and traffic safety is considerably reduced in the hours of darkness between dusk and dawn. Various studies have concluded that good quality street lighting reduces the accident rate by increasing the overall visibility, as vehicle headlights are inadequate for high-speed traffic. For example, “Driving outside of daylight hours is more dangerous – only a quarter of all travel by car drivers is between the hours of 7pm and 8am, yet this period accounts for 40% of fatal and serious injuries in the same group.” (Night-time accidents: a scoping study, UCL, London, 2009). Additionally, “… installing road lighting in a previously unlit road led to a rate ratio of 0.45 (95% confidence interval 0.29 to 0.69), which implies a 55% reduction in crashes compared to that in the control area.” (Street lighting for preventing road traffic injuries, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2009) Therefore, the street lighting Improvements will confer safety benefits to property within the District and each assessable property will be assessed for its proportional special benefit.
The street lighting Improvements will also provide improved accessibility benefits to assessable parcels where street lighting is provided along the access route. The usefulness of a parcel cannot be realized unless it is accessible. Thus, improving the accessibility of a parcel through proper street lighting can improve its utilization. The street lighting Improvements will help improve access for emergency response vehicles as well. The efficient and timely response to emergencies is a critical component to the effectiveness of emergency response. It is reasonable to conclude that the maintenance, operation and servicing of street Packet Page 386 of 839Attachment 19 Page 8 of 30
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 7 lighting will improve emergency response efficiency in the District. Therefore, the street lighting Improvements will confer accessibility benefits.
3.2 Street Trees and Other Landscaping
3.2.1 IMPROVED AESTHETICS AND INCREASED ECONOMIC ACTIVITY The aesthetic benefit relates to the increase in the overall aesthetics as a result of the ongoing maintenance, operation, and servicing of the street trees and other landscaping within the District.
Specifically, the street trees and other landscaping are believed to create a more beautiful, aesthetically pleasing environment within the District and they enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties within the District. A study by the University of Georgia found "People’s preferences for locating areas of social interactions in calming, beautiful, and nature-dominated areas revolve around the presence of community trees and forests" (Coder, 1996). The same study noted “Large old street trees were found to be the most important indicator of attractiveness in a community” (Coder).
Conversely, "appeal decreases when Improvements are not well-maintained, unsafe, or destroyed by vandalism” (The Victoria Transportation Institute, 2011). Streetscapes have a significant effect on how people view and interact with their community. With streetscapes that are safe and inviting, people are more likely to walk, which can help reduce automobile traffic, improve public health, stimulate local economic activity and attract residents and visitors to the community. Therefore, the street trees and other landscaping Improvements will confer aesthetic benefits to properties in close proximity.
The street trees and other landscaping improvements that confer aesthetic benefits will concurrently confer economic activity benefits as well. The Improvements will create a well-maintained and clean environment that is aesthetically pleasing, which has been shown to “increase consumer’s intentions to spend money” (Vilnai-Yavetz 2010). Additionally, "in contrast to areas without trees, shoppers indicated that they shop more often and longer in well-landscaped business districts, and were willing to pay more for goods and services” according to the Pennsylvania Landscape & Nursey Association. Therefore, the Improvements will also confer economic activity benefits to properties in close proximity.

4. SPECIAL BENEFIT DISTRIBUTION
Once special benefits are identified, they must be assigned based on the estimated proportionate special benefit derived by each parcel. This section describes the assignment of special benefit to each parcel.
4.1 Parcel Characteristics
The following parcel characteristics are used to determine each parcel’s proportionate special benefit:
Building Square Footage
Lot Square Footage
Average Daily Trip Generation
Differing levels of special benefit can largely be attributed to differences in building size, lot size, and trip generation associated with land use. As building size, lot size and average daily trip generation increase, parcels are considered to receive proportionately greater special benefit. For example, assuming all other factors are equal, a parcel with a large building will experience greater special benefit than a parcel with a small building. Therefore, these three parcel characteristics are deemed appropriate factors for determining proportional special benefit.
In order to relate differing parcel characteristics to one another, a relative factor is determined for each of the three parcel characteristics. The calculation methodology for the building factor, lot factor and average daily trip factor are described below.
4.1.1 BUILDING FACTOR
The average building size for all assessable parcels within the District is approximately 44,043.55 square feet. Each assessable parcel’s actual building size was divided by the District’s average building size to determine a Building Factor.
Parcel's Building
Square Feet / District's Average
Building Square Feet = Parcel's
Building Factor
4.1.2 LOT FACTOR
The average lot size for all assessable parcels within the District is approximately 130,457.77 square feet.
Each assessable parcel’s actual lot square footage was divided by the District’s average lot square footage to determine a Lot Factor.
Parcel's Lot
Square Feet / District's Average
Lot Square Feet = Parcel's

4.1.3 ADT FACTOR
The average daily trip (ADT) count for all assessable parcels within the District is 1,644.52 trips. Each assessable parcel’s ADT was divided by the District’s ADT to determine the parcel’s ADT factor.

Packet Page 388 of 839Attachment 19 Page 10 of 30
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 9 Assessable parcels were assigned trip generation rates by land use classification in accordance with the Institute for Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). Per the ITE Trip Generation User’s Guide, a “Trip” is defined as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting and entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total number of trips for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period.”
The ADT rates used in this analysis are shown in the table below. ADT rates came from the ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition), unless otherwise noted. For land uses with multiple ITE Codes, an average trip value was used for the ADT rate. Only those land use classifications currently being assessed at the time of preparation of this report are included below. Any future changes to a parcel’s land use classification resulting in changes to the parcel’s ADT rates will be based on the values found in the 11th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual.

4.2 Land Use
In addition to building size, lot size and average daily trip generation a parcel’s land use will also affect the special benefits received. Following the calculation of each parcel’s characteristic factors in Section 4.1 above, Land Use Benefit Points were assigned. These benefit points correspond to the special benefits described in the Benefits section of this report.
Each parcel within the proposed District boundary is assigned a land use classification for purposes of determining the special benefits received. Below is a description of the land use classifications to be assessed within the District. Not all land use classifications below are currently within the District.
Commercial Property consists of parcels used for commercial, for-profit or non-profit purposes including, but not limited to, retail, offices, restaurants, commercial garages, private schools, hotels/motels, medical/dental offices, and privately-owned pay-to-use parking lots and structures.
Multi-Family Residential Property consists of parcels that are duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and condominiums used exclusively for residential purposes.
Park Property consists of certain park parcels that are not being maintained by the District or included as part of the District Improvements.
Public Property consists of parcels used for public purposes including, golf courses, police and fire stations, public schools, libraries, and other government administration buildings.
Packet Page 389 of 839Attachment 19 Page 11 of 30
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 10 Single Family Residential Property consists of parcels that have stand-alone residential dwelling units with their own lots intended for one family.
Undeveloped Property consists of parcels with no structure value.
There are currently a total of 43 assessable parcels within the District.
4.2.1 APPORTIONING SAFETY AND ACCESSIBILITY BENEFIT
The Safety and Accessibility Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. Safety can be thought of as a universal need. Its importance can be seen in the fact that everyone desires to live and work in safe, crime-free areas (Lau Leby 2010). Therefore, because levels of safety affect all land uses, it follows that an increase in safety will specially benefit all land use classifications. Additionally, as noted in Section 3.1, the usefulness of a parcel cannot be realized unless it is accessible. As the street lighting Improvements allow for increased visibility around assessed parcels and easier access to properties throughout the District, these benefits are also not restricted to a particular land use.
However, due to their limited activity during the dusk to dawn hours, Park, Public and Undeveloped land use classifications will not experience the same level of safety and accessibility benefits compared to other land use classifications. For example, Park, Public and Undeveloped land use classifications experience limited activities during the evening hours when the greatest safety benefit from street lighting is received.
However, it is recognized that a visible and well-lit property, especially during the nighttime hours, will aid in deterring dumping and other illegal activities, such as property-related crime and will allow for access in case of an emergency. To account for this limited special benefit, Park and Public land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 0.50 and Undeveloped land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of
0.25 for Safety and Accessibility. All other land use classifications will be assigned 1 Safety and Accessibility Benefit Point.
Additionally, all land use classifications located in proximity to interior street lighting will experience a greater level of safety and accessibility benefits compared to other land use classifications due to the benefit of the parcel being located adjacent to interior street lighting. To account for this added benefit, parcels designated with the Interior Lighting land use classification are assigned double the benefit points for Safety and Accessibility, for example Public (Interior Lighting) land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 1 and Undeveloped (Interior Lighting) land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of
0.50 for Safety and Accessibility. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved safety and accessibility from street lighting, as property-related benefits, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its lot size, and daily trip generation. Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Safety and Accessibility Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-utilized parcels.
Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT factor are used to measure Safety and Accessibility Benefits. The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.

Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 11
4.2.2 APPORTIONING AESTHETIC BENEFIT
The Aesthetic Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. The benefit of visual appeal is not restricted to a particular land use. A more attractive public environment specially benefits all parcels irrespective of land use. Accordingly, each assessable land use classification will be assigned one Aesthetic Benefit Point. However, Undeveloped land use classifications will be assigned 0.25 Aesthetic Benefit Point due to the nature of the land use. Per the definition in Section 3.2.1, “the street trees and other landscaping are believed to create a more beautiful, aesthetically pleasing environment within the District and they enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties within the District.” As such, there is some aesthetic benefit conferred by the Improvements on undeveloped land use classifications. However, this benefit is limited, as undeveloped parcels are not utilized as areas recognized in the definition of aesthetic benefit of social interactions, areas where residents are likely to walk, areas of stimulated economic activity or locations that will attract residents and/or visitors to the community. Therefore, the undeveloped land use classifications are assigned the reduced 0.25 Aesthetic Benefit Points due to the nature of the land use compared to the developed land use classifications. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved aesthetics from tree and landscaping Improvements, as property-related benefits, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its lot size, and daily trip generation. Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Aesthetic Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-developed parcels. Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT Factor are used to measure Aesthetic Benefits.
The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.
4.2.3 APPORTIONING ECONOMIC ACTIVITY BENEFIT
The Economic Activity Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. Street trees and landscaping add value in many ways. They increase the social value of the City by making places more pleasing to people on foot and in cars and they also add great environmental benefits, which fuel economic benefits. The research has demonstrated that consumers will shop more often and for longer durations in well-landscaped business districts. The research also indicates that shoppers are willing to pay more money for goods and services in well-landscaped business districts.
Accordingly, each assessable land use classification will be assigned one Economic Activity Benefit Point.
The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved economic activity from tree and landscaping Improvements, as a property related benefit, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its size, and trip generation.
Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Economic Activity Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-developed parcels. Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT Factor are used to measure Economic Activity Benefits. The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.

5. SEPARATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF GENERAL
BENEFITS
As described in the Introduction, only special benefits are assessable and in order to assess only special benefits, the general benefits resulting from the Improvements must be separated and quantified. This section describes the process used to separate and quantify the general benefits.
5.1 Summary
As detailed below, it is estimated the Improvements will confer an Overall General Benefit of 37.34%.
5.2 General Benefit Analysis
5.2.1 GENERAL BENEFIT: VEHICLES PASSING THROUGH THE DISTRICT Traffic volume is utilized to help determine special benefits accruing to the District as opposed to the general benefits received by the public at large from the Improvements. As a result of the Improvements, there will be a level of general benefit conferred to pass-through vehicle traffic related to properties outside of the District whose occupants do not intend to access property within the District. As such, the benefit derived by pass-through vehicle traffic needs to be quantified. The percentage of pass-through vehicle traffic is calculated by comparing the estimated daily District generated vehicle trips to the total roadway design capacity, as detailed below.
In order to determine the average daily trips generated by parcels located within the District, the Institute of Transportation Engineer’s (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook was utilized to estimate the average daily trip counts by land use classification for each parcel. Per the ITE Trip Generation User’s Guide, a “Trip” is defined as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting and entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total trips for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period.” The ADT rates used in this analysis are shown in the table below and came from ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). Any future changes to land use classifications resulting in changes to a parcel’s ADT rates will be based on the values found in the 11th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual.

City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 15 Roadway design capacity is a critical element that affects trip distribution and was utilized in this analysis to estimate the number of daily vehicle trips passing through the District. From a visual inspection of the District, the primary higher functional classification roadways serving the District parcels are Travis Boulevard, Gateway Boulevard, and Pennsylvania Avenue. Roadway design capacities, as defined in the City of Fairfield’s Travel Demand Forecasting Model, were estimated based on the functional classification of the roadway, the number of lanes, and the City’s minimum recommended Level of Service “C” (City of Fairfield Design, Construction and Materials Specification Handbook 2020). Roadway design capacity was calculated for the higher functional classification roadways (henceforth referred to as the “Major Roads”) identified above in order to estimate the total daily traffic flow through the District.
Using the methodology described above, the estimated pass-through vehicular traffic through the District is 67.50% as summarized in the table below:

However, simply estimating the number of pass-through vehicle does not necessarily indicate the level of benefit accruing to vehicles passing through the District. We must look at each of the Improvements individually.
5.2.2 GENERAL BENEFIT: STREET LIGHTING
Certain street lights to be funded by the assessment are on the Major Roads identified in Section 5.2.1.
Accordingly, some of the safety and access benefits will be conferred to vehicles that are just passing through the District. An analysis of the street lights was prepared comparing the number of street lights located on the Major Roads to the total number of street lights within the District.
The street lighting Improvements are located along Gateway Boulevard, Pennsylvania Avenue, and throughout many of the other streets within the District. There are no street lights located along Interstate 80, therefore there is no general or special benefit conferred by the street lighting Improvements along Interstate 80. The trips generated by the property within the District was taken as a percent of the total traffic on the Major Roads.

Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 16 Although interior streets are intended to serve the interior parcels, one could imagine a small degree of “tourism” wherein drivers are in fact simply “passing through” to enjoy the views, the natural surroundings or perhaps lost on their way to their intended destination. As such, approximately 2% is attributable to vehicles passing through on interior streets.
As summarized in the table below, the Effective General Benefit percentage from the Street Lighting Improvements is 15.86%.

5.2.3 GENERAL BENEFIT: STREET TREES AND OTHER LANDSCAPING Certain street trees and other landscaping to be funded by the assessment are on the Major Roads as described previously. Accordingly, some of the aesthetic and economic activity benefits will be conferred to traffic passing through the District. An analysis of the street trees and landscaping areas within the District was conducted and whenever street trees and landscaping areas were located within close proximity to the Major Roads, those trees were considered as belonging to the Major Roads.
The landscaping Improvements are located along Travis Boulevard, Gateway Boulevard, Pennsylvania Avenue, and throughout the District. In order to quantify the General Benefits conferred by the landscaping Improvements, the total linear length of the Improvements were utilized. Interstate 80 does not provide direct access to the District, however drivers traveling eastbound on Interstate 80 receive benefits from the landscaping Improvements, therefore 100% of the linear length bordering the Improvements is recognized as pass-through traffic for the General Benefit analysis.
As mentioned above, although interior streets are intended to serve individual neighborhoods, one could imagine a small degree of “tourism” wherein drivers are in fact simply “passing through” to enjoy the views and the natural surroundings, or perhaps lost on their way to their intended destination. As such, approximately 2% is attributable to vehicles passing through on interior streets.
As summarized in the table below, the Effective General Benefit percentage from the Landscaping Improvements is 21.48%.

5.2.4 OVERALL GENERAL BENEFIT
In order to determine an overall general benefit percentage to apply to the District, it is necessary to combine the separately analyzed components of each of the general benefits described above. As the benefits conferred by the Street Lights Improvements and by Street Trees and Other Landscaping Improvements are independent of each other, it is appropriate to combine the individual general benefit percentages to determine a cumulative Overall General Benefit. The table below is a summary of the Overall General Benefit for the District.

6.1 Maximum Amount to Be Assessed
The total maximum amount to be assessed upon the assessable parcels is the total cost of the Improvements, as detailed above, less the portion of costs attributable to General Benefit as detailed in the Separation and Quantification of General Benefits section.
The calculation of the balance to be assessed is shown below:
Description Amount
Total Cost of Improvements $421,472
Less General Benefit Portion (Lighting – 15.86%) (1,761) Less General Benefit Portion (Landscaping – 21.48%) (81,519) Total Cost of Improvements to Be Assessed $338,191 (1)
(1) The Total Cost of Improvements to be Assessed does not add due to rounding. The final assessment rates in Section 9 have been truncated to two decimal places.
6.2 FY 23/24 Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point for Each Improvement Type
The Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point is calculated by dividing the total costs to be Assessed by the total Special Benefit Points assigned to the parcels within the District for each Improvement Type. The following formula provides the assessment rate per Special Benefit Point for each Improvement type.
Total Street Lighting Costs to be Assessed / Total Street Lighting Special Benefit Points = ($10,213.34) (236.00)
Assessment Rate per Street Lighting Special Benefit Point ($43.7268)
Total Landscaping Costs to be Assessed / Total Landscaping Special Benefit Points = ($327,977.88) (236.00)
Assessment Rate per Landscaping Special Benefit Point
($1,389.7368)
The Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point for each Improvement Type is then multiplied by each parcel’s total special benefit points to determine the maximum assessment amount per parcel.
6.3 Annual Maximum Assessment Rate Inflation for Each Improvement Type (Street Lighting and Landscaping)
Each parcel’s maximum assessment for an Improvement type is determined by multiplying the maximum assessment rate per special benefit point by the parcel’s total special benefit points. If the total special benefit points for all assessable parcels in the District change in future years, the maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point will not be recalculated. The maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point, plus the annual cost of living inflator, will remain fixed. The actual annual assessment rate per special benefit point will be calculated by dividing the fiscal year’s total Packet Page 399 of 839Attachment 19 Page 21 of 30
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 20 cost of improvements to be assessed by the total special benefit points, not to exceed the maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point for that fiscal year. The maximum allowable assessment rate per special benefit point is escalated each year on July 1 by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, for the San Francisco-Oakland- Hayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually, beginning July 1, 2024.
In any given year, the assessments may be at any rate sufficient to meet the estimated budget and levied without undertaking an assessment ballot proceeding, as long as the actual assessment rate per special benefit point does not exceed the Maximum Assessment Rate per special benefit point for that fiscal year.
If the change in CPI effective for any fiscal year is determined to be negative, the maximum assessment rate will remain unchanged from the previous fiscal year. The actual assessment rate may vary from year to year but will be no higher than the maximum rate.
6.4 Future Changes to Parcel Characteristics
Future changes to any of the parcel characteristics detailed in Section 4 will cause possible changes in the total assessment revenue. The assessment revenue for any given year will be the product of the District’s parcel characteristics, special benefit points and the budget in effect for such fiscal year. Development within the District that increases the overall building square footage, for example, will lead to possible increased assessment revenue, even if the assessment rate per special benefit point is not increased. By way of example, when a previously undeveloped parcel develops into a commercial land use classification, the parcel will no longer be assessed as an undeveloped land use, but rather as a commercial parcel with the updated parcel characteristics.
6.5 Data for Annual Assessment Calculations
Each year, as part of the assessment calculation procedures, the City or its designated consultant shall determine the land use classification for each parcel based on the County Assessor's use code or other supplementary information made available and deemed reliable. The parcel characteristics of building square footage and lot square footage shall similarly be based on the County Assessor's secured roll data for the applicable tax year and may be supplemented with other reliable data sources, such as County Assessor's parcel maps and GIS data.
Assessment amounts for each parcel may change over time in accordance with changes to parcel characteristics including land use classification, building square footage, lot square footage and average daily trip generation.
6.6 Appeals
If any property owner believes the data used to calculate the assessment is inaccurate for any reason, the property owner shall submit, in writing, a request for review to the City. The property owner shall provide documentation to support the request for review. The City or its designated consultant shall review the request and provide a response to the property owner. The property owner must be current in the payment of all assessments when filing the request for review and must remain current during the review process.

City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) 21 If the review conducted by the City or its designated consultant results in the approval for changes to any parcel characteristics used to compute the assessment, the City or its designated consultant shall recalculate the assessment. When recalculating the assessment, the assessment rates actually applied in such fiscal year shall be used. Only the assessment for the parcel or parcels subject to review shall be recalculated.
If the recalculated assessment for the parcel or parcels being reviewed is less than the amount submitted to the County on the secured property tax roll, the difference shall be credited back to the property owner in a manner approved by the City. This credit shall be limited to the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year, if applicable. The “fiscal year” shall follow the County’s fiscal year for property taxes, from July 1 to June 30. The applicable fiscal year shall be determined by the date the request for review is submitted to the City.
The credit may be provided in the form of a check issued to the property owner, an adjustment to the current year’s property tax roll (if possible), or a credit to the succeeding year’s assessment thereby reducing the amount placed on the secured property tax roll for such year.
If the recalculated assessment is greater than the amount submitted to the County on the secured property tax roll, the City or its designated consultant shall apply the recalculated assessment to the succeeding year’s property tax roll and no adjustments shall be made to the prior or current fiscal years’ assessments.
In any dispute over parcel characteristic data used to compute assessments, the City Manager (or his/her designee) shall make a conclusive determination and its decision shall be final.
6.7 Method of Collection
The assessments will be collected annually on the Solano County secured property tax roll. The assessments will be subject to the County’s assigned due dates and late penalties. However, the City Manager (or his/her designee) may choose to collect the assessments in an alternate manner (including directly billing the property owner) as may be deemed appropriate or necessary by the City or as allowed by law.

7. ENGINEER’S STATEMENT
The City of Fairfield Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-1 (Gateway) assessments described in this Report have been prepared pursuant to Article XIII D of the California Constitution. In preparing these assessments:
1. I have identified all parcels that will have a special benefit conferred upon them by the Improvements described in Section 2 of this Report (the “Specially Benefited Parcels”). a. For particulars as to the identification of these parcels, reference is made to the Assessment Diagram, a copy of which is included in Section 8 of this Report.
2. I have assessed the estimated costs and expenses of the Improvements upon the Specially Benefited Parcels. In making such assessment:
a. The proportionate special benefit derived from the Improvements by each Specially Benefited Parcel was determined in relationship to the entirety of the cost of the Improvements;
b. No assessment has been imposed on any Specially Benefited Parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on such parcel by the Improvements; and
I, the undersigned, respectfully submit this Engineer’s Report and, to the best of my knowledge, information and belief, this Report, the assessments, and the Assessment Diagram herein have been prepared and computed in accordance with the Assessment Law.
By:
John G. Egan
Assessment Engineer
R.C.E. 14853
c. The general benefits have been separated from the special benefits and only special benefits have been assessed.

Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 1
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 District History
The City of Fairfield (“City”) desires to fund certain landscaping services and improvements as described in Section 2 of this Report through an annual assessment. The proposed assessment is subject to the substantive and procedural requirements described in Section 4, Article XIII D of the California Constitution (“Article XIII D”). The assessment is authorized pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (Streets and Highways Code Section 22500, et seq.) (the “Act”).
The City currently has an existing assessment district which funds various services and improvements including landscaping and the associated maintenance, operation, and servicing within the boundary of Maintenance District No. 3 – Waterman Highlands. As the existing assessment district does not provide sufficient revenue for the services and improvements, the City proposes to form a new assessment district that is intended to provide sufficient revenue to fund ongoing annual associated maintenance, operation, and servicing of the landscaping improvements; reserve funds for replacement and repair of the improvements; and an allowance for an annual inflator so the assessment rate may be increased over time as costs increase without conducting a new Article XIII D balloting proceeding. The proposed assessment district is the City of Fairfield Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) (“District”).
1.2 Legislative Context
In 1996, California voters adopted Proposition 218, known as the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act,” which added Articles XIII C and XIII D to the California Constitution. Article XIII D established new substantive and procedural requirements on agencies for levying assessments, being levies on real property by an agency for a special benefit conferred upon the real property. “Special benefit” is defined in Article XIII D as “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on a real property located in the district or to the public at large.”
Article XIII D imposes five basic substantive requirements on assessments:
(1) All parcels that will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed must be identified;
(2) The general benefits must be distinguished from the special benefits conferred on the parcels;
(3) The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel must 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;
(4) The amount assessed to a parcel must not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel and must not include any costs attributable to the general benefit; and

City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 2 (5) Parcels within a district that are owned or used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.
Article XIII D also places procedural requirements on assessments, which include preparing an engineer’s report, providing written notice of the proposed assessment and a public hearing to property owners, holding a public hearing, and providing for a protest ballot proceeding.
1.3 Court Rulings
Since the initial passage of Proposition 218, several court rulings have helped provide context and direction with respect to the procedures and requirements of Article XIII D for levying assessments. Several of the key concepts from these rulings are summarized below.
1.3.1 GENERAL BENEFIT
Article XIII D requires an agency to separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on the identified parcels because only special benefits are assessable.
The Court of Appeal in Golden Hills Neighborhood Assn., Inc. v. City of San Diego (2011) (“Golden Hills”) clarified this concept by stating, “Separation and quantification of general and special benefits must be accomplished by apportioning the cost of a service or improvement between the two and assessing property owners only for the portion of the cost representing special benefits.” The Court of Appeal in Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010) (“Beutz”) noted that the trial court took judicial notice of the Legislative Analyst’s Office pamphlet titled “Understanding Proposition 218” which states an agency must, “estimate the amount of special benefit landowners would receive from the project or service, as well as the amount of ‘general benefit.’ This step is needed because Proposition 218 allows local government to recoup from assessments only the proportionate share of cost to provide the special benefit.”
The Court in Beutz furthered this idea stating, “Separating the general from the special benefits of a public improvement project and estimating the quantity of each in relation to the other is essential if an assessment is to be limited to the special benefits.”
The Court of Appeal again reiterated the need to separate, quantify and apportion costs to general benefits from the improvements in Broad Beach Geologic Hazard Abatement District v 31506 Victoria Point LLC (2022), stating, “The District cites no authority, and we are aware of none, suggesting that an agency’s subjective intent determines the need to account for general benefits.”
1.3.2 BENEFIT-BASED NOT COST-BASED
In Town of Tiburon v. Bonander (2009) (“Tiburon”), the Court of Appeal clarified the idea that assessments must be apportioned based upon benefit rather than cost. The Court stated, “Proportionate special benefit is the basis upon which a project’s total assessable costs are apportioned among parcels within an assessment district.”
Packet Page 412 of 839Attachment 20 Page 4 of 32
City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 3 The assessment on a particular property cannot be based on the relative cost of the improvements to the property, but rather on the special benefit conferred on such property. The Court in Tiburon also stated, “an assessment represents the entirety of the cost of the improvement or property-related service, less any amount attributable to general benefits (which may not be assessed), allocated to individual properties in proportion to the relative special benefit conferred on the property.”
1.3.3 MEASURING AND APPORTIONING SPECIAL BENEFIT
The Court in Tiburon acknowledged the difficulty of trying to precisely assign and measure special benefit, stating, “Any attempt to classify special benefits conferred on particular properties and to assign relative weights to those benefits will necessarily involve some degree of imprecision.” The Court in Tiburon went on to say that a formula assigning equal weight to different special benefits “may be a legally justifiable approach to measuring and apportioning special benefits, [but] it is not necessarily the only valid approach. Whichever approach is taken to measuring and apportioning special benefits, however, it must be both defensible and consistently applied.”

2.1 Street Trees and Other Landscaping
The Improvements include the maintenance, operation, and servicing of street trees and landscaping throughout the boundary of the District, as identified in the above illustrative map. The Improvements are generally described as: the maintenance, operation, and servicing of trees, landscape and appurtenant facilities in the public right of way areas, as well as open space, trails and green belt areas dispersed throughout the District. Eligible District costs may include, but are not limited to, personnel, furnishing electrical energy, utilities such as water and gas, materials, contracting services, and other items necessary for the satisfactory operation of these services described as follows:
The improvements authorized to be maintained and serviced include, but are not limited to: groundcover, turf, trees, shrubs, planters, the landscaped areas and weed abatement of open spaces, and may also include sidewalk and hardscape Improvements, entry monuments and associated appurtenant facilities.
There is approximately 234,988 square feet of landscape maintenance area and 231 street trees within the District. The general location of the Improvements within the District is described as follows:
1. Easterly and westerly sides of Ten Gate Road commencing at the intersection of Ten Gate Road and Waterman Boulevard.
2. Northerly side of Waterman Boulevard commencing at a point on Waterman Boulevard 650 feet west of its intersection with Ten Gate Road and extending easterly along Waterman Boulevard to its intersection with Hilborn Road. Any turf between the curb and sidewalk within this reach shall be excluded from the maintenance district.
3. Westerly side of Hilborn Road commencing at the intersection of Waterman Boulevard and Hilborn Road and extending northerly along Hilborn Road to its intersection with Vista Grande. Any turf between the curb and sidewalk within this reach shall be excluded from the maintenance district.
4. The open space area and bike trail adjacent to the westerly boundary of the District between Waterman Boulevard and Vista Grande are excluded.
5. All lands owned by the City of Fairfield designated as open space, including fire breaks.
6. All other improvements necessary to maintain and service the above-described facilities within the District.

3. BENEFITS
The Improvements will confer special benefits upon certain parcels within the District. These benefits are summarized in the table below:
Improvement Benefit(s)
Street Trees and Other Landscaping Improved Aesthetics
Increased Livability
The special benefits to be conferred by the Improvements are detailed below.
3.1 Street Trees and Other Landscaping
3.1.1 IMPROVED AESTHETICS AND LIVABILITY
The aesthetic benefit relates to the increase in the overall aesthetics as a result of the ongoing maintenance, operation, and servicing of the street trees and other landscaping within the District.
Specifically, the street trees and other landscaping are believed to create a more beautiful, aesthetically pleasing environment within the District and they enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties within the District. A study by the University of George found "People’s preferences for locating areas of social interactions in calming, beautiful, and nature-dominated areas revolve around the presence of community trees and forests" (Coder, 1996). The same study noted “Large old street trees were found to be the most important indicator of attractiveness in a community” (Coder).
Conversely, "appeal decreases when Improvements are not well maintained, unsafe, or destroyed by vandalism” (The Victoria Transportation Institute, 2011). Streetscapes have a significant effect on how people view and interact with their community. With streetscapes that are safe and inviting, people are more likely to walk, which can help reduce automobile traffic, improve public health, stimulate local economic activity and attract residents and visitors to the community. Therefore, the street trees and other landscaping Improvements will confer aesthetic benefits to properties in close proximity.
Livability is a measurement of the factors that add up to a community’s quality of life—including but not limited to the built and natural environments, economic prosperity, social stability and equity, cultural, entertainment and recreation possibilities. The Victoria Transport Policy Institute explains that “Livability is largely affected by conditions in the public realm, places where people naturally interact with each other and their community...” In addition, the presence of natural areas and green landscapes are positively related to neighborhood satisfaction (Kearney, 2006). The presence of street trees has been shown to encourage increased physical activity and increased social cohesion in the urban environment (VanDillen et al., 2012). Therefore, the street trees and other landscaping will confer livability benefits.

4. SPECIAL BENEFIT DISTRIBUTION
Once special benefits are identified, they must be assigned based on the estimated proportionate special benefit derived by each parcel. This section describes the assignment of special benefit to each parcel.
4.1 Parcel Characteristics
The following parcel characteristics are used to determine each parcel’s proportionate special benefit:
Building Square Footage
Lot Square Footage
Average Daily Trip Generation
Differing levels of special benefit can largely be attributed to differences in building size, lot size, and trip generation associated with land use. As building size, lot size and average daily trip generation increase, parcels are considered to receive proportionately greater special benefit. For example, assuming all other factors are equal, a parcel with a large building will experience greater special benefit than a parcel with a small building. Therefore, these three parcel characteristics are deemed appropriate factors for determining proportional special benefit.
In order to relate differing parcel characteristics to one another, a relative factor is determined for each of the three parcel characteristics. The calculation methodology for the building factor, lot factor and average daily trip factor are described below.
4.1.1 BUILDING FACTOR
The average building size for all assessable parcels within the District is approximately 1,869.16 square feet. Each assessable parcel’s actual building size was divided by the District’s average building size to determine a Building Factor.
Parcel's Building
Square Feet / District's Average
Building Square Feet = Parcel's
Building Factor
4.1.2 LOT FACTOR
The average lot size for all assessable parcels within the District is approximately 8,532.14 square feet.
Each assessable parcel’s actual lot square footage was divided by the District’s average lot square footage to determine a Lot Factor.
Parcel's Lot
Square Feet / District's Average
Lot Square Feet = Parcel's

4.1.3 ADT FACTOR
The average daily trip (ADT) count for all assessable parcels within the District is 9.58 trips. Each assessable parcel’s ADT was divided by the District’s ADT to determine the parcel’s ADT factor.

City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 8 Assessable parcels were assigned trip generation rates by land use classification in accordance with the Institute for Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). Per the ITE Trip Generation User’s Guide, a “Trip” is defined as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting and entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total number of trips for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period.”
The ADT rates used in this analysis are shown in the table below. ADT rates came from the ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition), unless otherwise noted. For land uses with multiple ITE Codes, an average trip value was used for the ADT rate. Only those land use classifications currently being assessed at the time of preparation of this report are included below. Any future changes to a parcel’s land use classification resulting in changes to the parcel’s ADT rates will be based on the values found in the 11th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual.

4.2 Land Use
In addition to building size, lot size and average daily trip generation a parcel’s land use will also affect the special benefits received. Following the calculation of each parcel’s characteristic factors in Section 4.1 above, Land Use Benefit Points were assigned. These benefit points correspond to the special benefits described in the Benefits section of this report.
Each parcel within the proposed District boundary is assigned a land use classification for purposes of determining the special benefits received. Below is a description of the land use classifications to be assessed within the District. Not all land use classifications below are currently within the District.
Assisted Living Property consists of parcels used for residential care, providing assistance with activities and daily living and social care.
Commercial Property consists of parcels used for commercial, for-profit or non-profit purposes including, but not limited to, retail, offices, restaurants, commercial garages, private schools, hotels/motels, medical/dental offices, and privately-owned pay-to-use parking lots and structures.
Golf Course Clubhouse Property consists of parcels utilized for club houses, locker rooms, maintenance facilities, prop shops, restaurants or banquet facilities.
Multi-Family Residential Property consists of parcels that are duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and condominiums used exclusively for residential purposes.
Park Property consists of certain park parcels that are not being maintained by the District or included as part of the District Improvements.
Packet Page 418 of 839Attachment 20 Page 10 of 32
City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 9 Public Property consists of parcels used for public purposes including golf courses, police and fire stations, public schools, libraries, and other government administration buildings.
Single Family Residential Property consists of parcels that have stand-alone residential dwelling units with their own lots intended for one family.
Undeveloped Property consists of parcels with no structure value.
There are currently a total of 255 assessable parcels within the District. Additionally, there are 7 parcels in the District deemed to receive no benefit from the Improvements and are therefore non-assessable. These parcels include, but are not limited to: conservation easements, restricted use parcels, streets, right of ways, and parcels which are the Improvements themselves. Typical Solano County use codes include, but are not limited to 6100, 6400, 6462, 6463, 6464, 9100, 9600, and 9700.
4.2.1 APPORTIONING AESTHETIC BENEFIT
The Aesthetic Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. The benefit of visual appeal is not restricted to a particular land use. A more attractive public environment specially benefits all parcels irrespective of land use classification. Accordingly, each assessable land use classification will be assigned one Aesthetic Benefit Point. However, Undeveloped land use classifications will be assigned 0.25 Aesthetic Benefit Point due to the nature of the land use. Per the definition in Section 3.2.1, “the street trees and other landscaping are believed to create a more beautiful, aesthetically pleasing environment within the District and they enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties within the District.” As such, there is some aesthetic benefit conferred by the Improvements on undeveloped land use classifications. However, this benefit is limited, as undeveloped parcels are not utilized as areas recognized in the definition of aesthetic benefit of social interactions, areas where residents are likely to walk, areas of stimulated economic activity or locations that will attract residents and/or visitors to the community. Therefore, the undeveloped land use classifications are assigned the reduced 0.25 Aesthetic Benefit Points due to the nature of the land use compared to the developed land use classifications. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
Additionally, all land use classifications located in proximity to interior landscaping will experience a greater level of aesthetic benefits compared to other land use classifications. To account for this added benefit, Undeveloped parcels designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.03 benefit points for Aesthetic and all other land uses designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.05 benefit points for Aesthetic. For example, Single Family Residential (Interior Landscaping) land uses are assigned a benefit point of 1.05 and Undeveloped (Interior Landscaping) land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 0.28 for Aesthetic. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved aesthetics from tree and landscaping Improvements, as property-related benefits, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its lot size, and daily trip generation. Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Aesthetic Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-developed Packet Page 419 of 839Attachment 20 Page 11 of 32
City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 10 parcels. Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT Factor are used to measure Aesthetic Benefits.
The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.
4.2.2 APPORTIONING LIVABILITY BENEFIT
The Livability Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. Livability represents the desirability to reside in an area based on the characteristics of the environment that make an area a more attractive place to live. Accordingly, each assessable land use classification will be assigned one Livability Benefit Point. However, undeveloped land use classifications will be assigned 0.25 Livability Benefit Point due to the nature of the land use. Per the definition in Section
3.2.1, livability is a measurement of factors that add up to a community’s quality of life. The presence of natural areas and green landscapes are positively related to neighborhood satisfaction. As such, there is some livability benefit conferred by the Improvements on undeveloped land use classifications. However, this benefit is limited, as undeveloped parcels are not utilized as areas recognized in the definition of livability benefit for “economic prosperity, social stability and equity, cultural, entertainment or recreation possibilities.” Therefore, the undeveloped land use classifications are assigned the reduced 0.25 Livability Benefit Points due to the nature of the land use compared to the developed land use classifications.
Additionally, all land use classifications located in proximity to interior landscaping will experience a greater level of livability benefits compared to other land use classifications. To account for this added benefit, Undeveloped parcels designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.03 benefit points for Livability and all other land uses designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.05 benefit points for Livability. For example, Single Family Residential (Interior Landscaping) land uses are assigned a benefit point of 1.05 and Undeveloped (Interior Landscaping) land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 0.28 for Livability. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
As a property-related benefit, improved livability from tree and landscaping Improvements can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its size, and trip generation.
Larger parcels and parcels with larger developments have a greater intensity of use and will experience the Livability Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-developed parcels. Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT Factor are used to measure Livability Benefits. The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.

5. SEPARATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF GENERAL
BENEFITS
As described in the Introduction, only special benefits are assessable and in order to assess only special benefits, the general benefits resulting from the Improvements must be separated and quantified. This section describes the process used to separate and quantify the general benefits.
5.1 Summary
As detailed below, it is estimated the Improvements will confer an Overall General Benefit of 20.25%.
5.2 General Benefit Analysis
5.2.1 GENERAL BENEFIT: VEHICLES PASSING THROUGH THE DISTRICT Traffic volume is utilized to help determine special benefits accruing to the District as opposed to the general benefits received by the public at large from the Improvements. As a result of the Improvements, there will be a level of general benefit conferred to pass-through vehicle traffic related to properties outside of the District whose occupants do not intend to access property within the District. As such, the benefit derived by pass-through vehicle traffic needs to be quantified. The percentage of pass-through vehicle traffic is calculated by comparing the estimated daily District generated vehicle trips to the total roadway design capacity, as detailed below.
In order to determine the average daily trips generated by parcels located within the District, the Institute of Transportation Engineer’s (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook was utilized to estimate the average daily trip counts by land use classification for each parcel. Per the ITE Trip Generation User’s Guide, a “Trip” is defined as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting and entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total trips for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period.” The ADT rates used in this analysis are shown in the table below and came from ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). Any future changes to land use classifications resulting in changes to a parcel’s ADT rates will be based on the values found in the 11th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual.

Roadway design capacity is a critical element that affects trip distribution and was utilized in this analysis to estimate the number of daily vehicle trips passing through the District. From a visual inspection of the District, the primary higher functional classification roadways serving the District parcels are Hilborn Road Packet Page 422 of 839Attachment 20 Page 14 of 32
City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 13 and Waterman Boulevard. Roadway design capacities, as defined in the City of Fairfield’s Travel Demand Forecasting Model, were estimated based on the functional classification of the roadway, the number of lanes, and the City’s minimum recommended Level of Service “C” (City of Fairfield Design, Construction and Materials Specification Handbook 2020). Roadway design capacity was calculated for the higher functional classification roadways (henceforth referred to as the “Major Roads”) identified above in order to estimate the total daily traffic flow through the District.
Using the methodology described above, the estimated pass-through vehicular traffic through the District is 97.67% as summarized in the table below:

(1) Equals (Vehicle Trips Passing Through District on Roadway / Total Vehicle Trips Passing Through District). (2) Equals (% of Total Roadway Design Capacity x Pass Through %). (3) Does not add due to rounding.
Additionally, there are bike lanes present on Waterman Boulevard, which provides added roadway capacity in the form of additional lanes in the roadway cross-section designated exclusively for the use of bicycles. The Federal Highway Administration’s Technical Report entitled “Capacity Analysis of Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities” was utilized to estimate the additional roadway capacity provided by the bike lanes based on the type of facility (namely on-street bicycle facilities), the number of lanes, and the City’s minimum recommended Level of Service “C” (City of Fairfield Design, Construction and Materials Specification Handbook 2020). An estimated pass-through bicycle traffic percentage of 97.67% was utilized, consistent with the estimated pass-through vehicular traffic percentage through the District calculated above.
However, simply estimating the number of pass-through vehicle and bicycle trips does not necessarily indicate the level of benefit accruing to vehicles passing through the District. We must look at each of the Improvements individually.
5.2.2 GENERAL BENEFIT: STREET TREES AND OTHER LANDSCAPING Certain street trees and other landscaping to be funded by the assessment are on the Major Roads as described previously. Accordingly, some of the aesthetic and livability benefits will be conferred to traffic passing through the District. An analysis of the street trees and landscaping areas within the District was Packet Page 423 of 839Attachment 20 Page 15 of 32
City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 14 conducted and whenever street trees and landscaping areas were located within close proximity to the Major Roads, those trees were considered as belonging to the Major Roads.
The landscaping Improvements are located throughout the District. Although interior streets are intended to serve individual neighborhoods, one could imagine a small degree of “tourism” wherein drivers are in fact simply “passing through” to enjoy the views of the homes, the natural surroundings or perhaps lost on their way to their intended destination. As such, approximately 2% is attributable to vehicles passing through on interior streets. Additionally, there are bike lanes on Waterman Boulevard and this is recognized as contributing additional general benefit to the street trees and other landscaping Improvements.
As summarized in the table below, the Effective General Benefit percentage from the Landscaping Improvements is 20.25%.

6.1 Maximum Amount to Be Assessed
The total maximum amount to be assessed upon the assessable parcels is the total cost of the Improvements, as detailed above, less the portion of costs attributable to General Benefit as detailed in the Separation and Quantification of General Benefits section. The calculation of the balance to be assessed is shown below:

Total Cost of Improvements $179,856
Less General Benefit Portion (20.25%) (32,125)
Total Cost of Improvements to Be Assessed $147,729 (1)
(1) The final assessment rates in Section 9 have been truncated to two decimal places.
6.2 FY 23/24 Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point The Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point is calculated by dividing the total costs to be Assessed by the total Special Benefit Points assigned to the parcels within the District. The following formula provides the assessment rate per Special Benefit Point.
Total Costs to be Assessed / Total Special Benefit Points = ($147,730.74) (1,472.88)
Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point
($100.3007)
The Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point for each Improvement Type is then multiplied by each parcel’s total special benefit points to determine the maximum assessment amount per parcel.
6.3 Annual Maximum Assessment Rate Inflation
Each parcel’s maximum assessment is determined by multiplying the maximum assessment rate per special benefit point by the parcel’s total special benefit points. If the total special benefit points for all assessable parcels in the District change in future years, the maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point will not be recalculated. The maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point, plus the annual cost of living inflator, will remain fixed. The actual annual assessment rate per special benefit point will be calculated by dividing the fiscal year’s total cost of improvements to be assessed by the total special benefit points, not to exceed the maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point for that fiscal year. The maximum allowable assessment rate per special benefit point is escalated each year on July 1 by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, for the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually, beginning July 1, 2024.
In any given year, the assessments may be at any rate sufficient to meet the estimated budget and levied without undertaking an assessment ballot proceeding, as long as the actual assessment rate per special benefit point does not exceed the Maximum Assessment Rate per special benefit point for that fiscal year.
If the change in CPI effective for any fiscal year is determined to be negative, the maximum assessment rate will remain unchanged from the previous fiscal year. The actual assessment rate may vary from year to year but will be no higher than the maximum rate.
6.4 Future Changes to Parcel Characteristics
Future changes to any of the parcel characteristics detailed in Section 4 will cause possible changes in the total assessment revenue. The assessment revenue for any given year will be the product of the District’s parcel characteristics, special benefit points and the budget in effect for such fiscal year.

City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 17 within the District that increases the overall building square footage, for example, will lead to possible increased assessment revenue, even if the assessment rate per special benefit point is not increased. By way of example, when a previously undeveloped parcel develops into a single family residential land use classification, the parcel will no longer be assessed as an undeveloped land use, but rather as a single family residential parcel with the updated parcel characteristics.
6.5 Data for Annual Assessment Calculations
Each year, as part of the assessment calculation procedures, the City or its designated consultant shall determine the land use classification for each parcel based on the County Assessor's use code or other supplementary information made available and deemed reliable. The parcel characteristics of building square footage and lot square footage shall similarly be based on the County Assessor's secured roll data for the applicable tax year and may be supplemented with other reliable data sources, such as County Assessor's parcel maps and GIS data.
Assessment amounts for each parcel may change over time in accordance with changes to parcel characteristics including land use classification, building square footage, lot square footage and average daily trip generation.
As of 2023/24, there are 10 lots that have been assigned multiple Assessor Parcel Numbers because the lots are split by multiple tax rate areas. For purposes of the calculations within, the assessments have been calculated to recognize the full lot square footage of the entire lot and the resulting assessment assigned to the Assessor Parcel Number for such lot that is taxable for County property tax purposes.
6.6 Appeals
If any property owner believes the data used to calculate the assessment is inaccurate for any reason, the property owner shall submit, in writing, a request for review to the City. The property owner shall provide documentation to support the request for review. The City or its designated consultant shall review the request and provide a response to the property owner. The property owner must be current in the payment of all assessments when filing the request for review and must remain current during the review process.
If the review conducted by the City or its designated consultant results in the approval for changes to any parcel characteristics used to compute the assessment, the City or its designated consultant shall recalculate the assessment. When recalculating the assessment, the assessment rates actually applied in such fiscal year shall be used. Only the assessment for the parcel or parcels subject to review shall be recalculated.
If the recalculated assessment for the parcel or parcels being reviewed is less than the amount submitted to the County on the secured property tax roll, the difference shall be credited back to the property owner in a manner approved by the City. This credit shall be limited to the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year, if applicable. The “fiscal year” shall follow the County’s fiscal year for property taxes, from July 1 to June 30. The applicable fiscal year shall be determined by the date the request for review is submitted to the City.

City of Fairfield
Amended Engineer’s Report – Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) 18 The credit may be provided in the form of a check issued to the property owner, an adjustment to the current year’s property tax roll (if possible), or a credit to the succeeding year’s assessment thereby reducing the amount placed on the secured property tax roll for such year.
If the recalculated assessment is greater than the amount submitted to the County on the secured property tax roll, the City or its designated consultant shall apply the recalculated assessment to the succeeding year’s property tax roll and no adjustments shall be made to the prior or current fiscal years’ assessments.
In any dispute over parcel characteristic data used to compute assessments, the City Manager (or his/her designee) shall make a conclusive determination and its decision shall be final.
6.7 Method of Collection
The assessments will be collected annually on the Solano County secured property tax roll. The assessments will be subject to the County’s assigned due dates and late penalties. However, the City Manager (or his/her designee) may choose to collect the assessments in an alternate manner (including directly billing the property owner) as may be deemed appropriate or necessary by the City or as allowed by law.

7. ENGINEER’S STATEMENT
The City of Fairfield Landscape Maintenance District No. 2023-3 (Waterman Highlands) assessments described in this Report have been prepared pursuant to Article XIII D of the California Constitution. In preparing these assessments:
1. I have identified all parcels that will have a special benefit conferred upon them by the Improvements described in Section 2 of this Report (the “Specially Benefited Parcels”). a. For particulars as to the identification of these parcels, reference is made to the Assessment Diagram, a copy of which is included in Section 8 of this Report.
2. I have assessed the estimated costs and expenses of the Improvements upon the Specially Benefited Parcels. In making such assessment:
a. The proportionate special benefit derived from the Improvements by each Specially Benefited Parcel was determined in relationship to the entirety of the cost of the Improvements;
b. No assessment has been imposed on any Specially Benefited Parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on such parcel by the Improvements; and
c. The general benefits have been separated from the special benefits and only special benefits have been assessed.
I, the undersigned, respectfully submit this Engineer’s Report and, to the best of my knowledge, information and belief, this Report, the assessments, and the Assessment Diagram herein have been prepared and computed in accordance with the Assessment Law.

Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 5
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 District History
The City of Fairfield (“City”) desires to fund certain landscaping and lighting services and improvements as described in Section 2 of this Report through an annual assessment. The proposed assessment is subject to the substantive and procedural requirements described in Section 4, Article XIII D of the California Constitution (“Article XIII D”). The assessment is authorized pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (Streets and Highways Code Section 22500, et seq.) (the “Act”).
The City currently has an existing assessment district which funds various services and improvements including lighting, landscaping, and the associated maintenance, operation, and servicing within the boundary of Maintenance District No. 5 – Smith Ranch. As the existing assessment district does not provide sufficient revenue for the services and improvements, the City proposes to form a new assessment district that is intended to provide sufficient revenue to fund ongoing annual associated maintenance, operation, and servicing of the landscaping and lighting improvements; reserve funds for replacement and repair of the improvements; and an allowance for an annual inflator so the assessment rate may be increased over time as costs increase without conducting a new Article XIII D balloting proceeding. The proposed assessment district is the City of Fairfield Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) (“District”).
1.2 Legislative Context
In 1996, California voters adopted Proposition 218, known as the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act,” which added Articles XIII C and XIII D to the California Constitution. Article XIII D established new substantive and procedural requirements on agencies for levying assessments, being levies on real property by an agency for a special benefit conferred upon the real property. “Special benefit” is defined in Article XIII D as “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on a real property located in the district or to the public at large.”
Article XIII D imposes five basic substantive requirements on assessments:
(1) All parcels that will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed must be identified;
(2) The general benefits must be distinguished from the special benefits conferred on the parcels;
(3) The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel must 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;
(4) The amount assessed to a parcel must not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel and must not include any costs attributable to the general benefit; and
Packet Page 443 of 839Attachment 21 Page 3 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 6 (5) Parcels within a district that are owned or used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit.
Article XIII D also places procedural requirements on assessments, which include preparing an engineer’s report, providing written notice of the proposed assessment and a public hearing to property owners, holding a public hearing, and providing for a protest ballot proceeding.
1.3 Court Rulings
Since the initial passage of Proposition 218, several court rulings have helped provide context and direction with respect to the procedures and requirements of Article XIII D for levying assessments. Several of the key concepts from these rulings are summarized below.
1.3.1 GENERAL BENEFIT
Article XIII D requires an agency to separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on the identified parcels because only special benefits are assessable.
The Court of Appeal in Golden Hills Neighborhood Assn., Inc. v. City of San Diego (2011) (“Golden Hills”) clarified this concept by stating, “Separation and quantification of general and special benefits must be accomplished by apportioning the cost of a service or improvement between the two and assessing property owners only for the portion of the cost representing special benefits .” The Court of Appeal in Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010) (“Beutz”) noted that the trial court took judicial notice of the Legislative Analyst’s Office pamphlet titled “Understanding Proposition 218” which states an agency must, “estimate the amount of special benefit landowners would receive from the project or service, as well as the amount of ‘general benefit.’ This step is needed because Proposition 218 allows local government to recoup from assessments only the proportionate share of cost to provide the special benefit.”
The Court in Beutz furthered this idea stating, “Separating the general from the special benefits of a public improvement project and estimating the quantity of each in relation to the other is essential if an assessment is to be limited to the special benefits.”
The Court of Appeal again reiterated the need to separate, quantify and apportion costs to general benefits from the improvements in Broad Beach Geologic Hazard Abatement District v 31506 Victoria Point LLC (2022), stating, “The District cites no authority, and we are aware of none, suggesting that an agency’s subjective intent determines the need to account for general benefits.”
1.3.2 BENEFIT-BASED NOT COST-BASED
In Town of Tiburon v. Bonander (2009) (“Tiburon”), the Court of Appeal clarified the idea that assessments must be apportioned based upon benefit rather than cost. The Court stated, “Proportionate special benefit is the basis upon which a project’s total assessable costs are apportioned among parcels within an assessment district.”
Packet Page 444 of 839Attachment 21 Page 4 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 7 The assessment on a particular property cannot be based on the relative cost of the improvements to the property, but rather on the special benefit conferred on such property. The Court in Tiburon also stated, “an assessment represents the entirety of the cost of the improvement or property-related service, less any amount attributable to general benefits (which may not be assessed), allocated to individual properties in proportion to the relative special benefit conferred on the property.”
1.3.3 MEASURING AND APPORTIONING SPECIAL BENEFIT
The Court in Tiburon acknowledged the difficulty of trying to precisely assign and measure special benefit, stating, “Any attempt to classify special benefits conferred on particular properties and to assign relative weights to those benefits will necessarily involve some degree of imprecision.” The Court in Tiburon went on to say that a formula assigning equal weight to different special benefits “may be a legally justifiable approach to measuring and apportioning special benefits, [but] it is not necessarily the only valid approach. Whichever approach is taken to measuring and apportioning special benefits, however, it must be both defensible and consistently applied.”

Currently, there are 46 total street lights within the District and the general location of the Improvements within the District is shown in the illustration above.
2.2 Street Trees and Other Landscaping
The Improvements include the maintenance, operation, and servicing of street trees and landscaping throughout the boundary of the District, as identified in the above illustrative map. The Improvements are generally described as: the maintenance, operation, and servicing of trees, landscape and appurtenant facilities in the public right of way areas, as well as open space, trails and green belt areas dispersed throughout the District. Eligible District costs may include, but are not limited to, personnel, furnishing electrical energy, utilities such as water and gas, materials, contracting services, and other items necessary for the satisfactory operation of these services described as follows:
The improvements authorized to be maintained and serviced include, but are not limited to: groundcover, turf, trees, shrubs, planters, the landscaped areas and weed abatement of open spaces, and may also include sidewalk and hardscape Improvements, entry monuments and associated appurtenant facilities.
There is approximately 3,000,931 square feet of landscape maintenance area and 2,268 street trees within the District. The general location of the Improvements within the District is described as follows:
1. All landscaping fronting the District and in the median island on Mankas Corner Road from Oliver Road to approximately 500 feet west of Rancho Solano Parkway.
2. All landscaping in the median islands and in the parkway strips between the curb and public right- of-way along Rancho Solano Parkway.
3. Landscaping in the median islands, in parkway strips and on slopes on various interior streets behind the gates along Rancho Solano Parkway.
4. All lands owned by the City of Fairfield designated as open space, including fire breaks.

3. BENEFITS
The Improvements will confer special benefits upon certain parcels within the District. These benefits are summarized in the table below:
Improvement Benefit(s)
Street Lighting Improved Safety
Improved Accessibility
Street Trees and Other Landscaping Improved Aesthetics
Increased Livability
The special benefits to be conferred by the Improvements are detailed below.
3.1 Street Lighting
3.1.1 IMPROVED SAFETY AND ACCESSIBILITY
The street lighting Improvements will confer safety benefits to assessable parcels in close proximity to lighting. This benefit extends to property, as adequate lighting should decrease vandalism and other property-related crime. As noted in one report, “Published studies having different methodologies tend to converge on an overall average reported 20% to 30% reduction in nighttime crash risk from lighting ” (National Cooperative Highway Research Program Transportation Research Board of The National Academies, 2009). The same report also states, “… lighting has a positive effect on reducing crime ...” The Improvements will also provide improved safety benefits by facilitating a more efficient and safer flow of traffic to and from properties within the District between the dusk and dawn hours. It is a well-accepted fact that pedestrian and traffic safety is considerably reduced in the hours of darkness between dusk and dawn. Various studies have concluded that good quality street lighting reduces the accident rate by increasing the overall visibility, as vehicle headlights are inadequate for high-speed traffic. For example, “Driving outside of daylight hours is more dangerous – only a quarter of all travel by car drivers is between the hours of 7pm and 8am, yet this period accounts for 40% of fatal and serious injuries in the same group.” (Night-time accidents: a scoping study, UCL, London, 2009). Additionally, “… installing road lighting in a previously unlit road led to a rate ratio of 0.45 (95% confidence interval 0.29 to 0.69), which implies a 55% reduction in crashes compared to that in the control area.” (Street lighting for preventing road traffic injuries, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2009) Therefore, the street lighting Improvements will confer safety benefits to property within the District and each assessable property will be assessed for its proportional special benefit.
The street lighting Improvements will also provide improved accessibility benefits to assessable parcels where street lighting is provided along the access route. The usefulness of a parcel cannot be realized unless it is accessible. Thus, improving the accessibility of a parcel through proper street lighting can improve its utilization. The street lighting Improvements will help improve access for emergency response vehicles as well. The efficient and timely response to emergencies is a critical component to the effectiveness of emergency response. It is reasonable to conclude that the maintenance, operation and servicing of street Packet Page 448 of 839Attachment 21 Page 8 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 11 lighting will improve emergency response efficiency in the District. Therefore, the street lighting Improvements will confer accessibility benefits.
3.2 Street Trees and Other Landscaping
3.2.1 IMPROVED AESTHETICS AND LIVABILITY
The aesthetic benefit relates to the increase in the overall aesthetics as a result of the ongoing maintenance, operation, and servicing of the street trees and other landscaping within the District.
Specifically, the street trees and other landscaping are believed to create a more beautiful, aesthetically pleasing environment within the District and they enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties within the District. A study by the University of Georgia found "People’s preferences for locating areas of social interactions in calming, beautiful, and nature-dominated areas revolve around the presence of community trees and forests" (Coder, 1996). The same study noted “Large old street trees were found to be the most important indicator of attractiveness in a community” (Coder).
Conversely, "appeal decreases when Improvements are not well-maintained, unsafe, or destroyed by vandalism” (The Victoria Transportation Institute, 2011). Streetscapes have a significant effect on how people view and interact with their community. With streetscapes that are safe and inviting, people are more likely to walk, which can help reduce automobile traffic, improve public health, stimulate local economic activity and attract residents and visitors to the community. Therefore, the street trees and other landscaping Improvements will confer aesthetic benefits to properties in close proximity.
Livability is a measurement of the factors that add up to a community’s quality of life—including but not limited to the built and natural environments, economic prosperity, social stability and equity, cultural, entertainment and recreation possibilities. The Victoria Transport Policy Institute explains that “Livability is largely affected by conditions in the public realm, places where people naturally interact with each other and their community...” In addition, the presence of natural areas and green landscapes are positively related to neighborhood satisfaction (Kearney, 2006). The presence of street trees has been shown to encourage increased physical activity and increased social cohesion in the urban environment (VanDillen et al., 2012). Therefore, the street trees and other landscaping will confer livability benefits.

4. SPECIAL BENEFIT DISTRIBUTION
Once special benefits are identified, they must be assigned based on the estimated proportionate special benefit derived by each parcel. This section describes the assignment of special benefit to each parcel.
4.1 Parcel Characteristics
The following parcel characteristics are used to determine each parcel’s proportionate special benefit:
Building Square Footage
Lot Square Footage
Average Daily Trip Generation
Differing levels of special benefit can largely be attributed to differences in building size, lot size, and trip generation associated with land use. As building size, lot size and average daily trip generation increase, parcels are considered to receive proportionately greater special benefit. For example, assuming all other factors are equal, a parcel with a large building will experience greater special benefit than a parcel with a small building. Therefore, these three parcel characteristics are deemed appropriate factors for determining proportional special benefit.
In order to relate differing parcel characteristics to one another, a relative factor is determined for each of the three parcel characteristics. The calculation methodology for the building factor, lot factor and average daily trip factor are described below.
4.1.1 BUILDING FACTOR
The average building size for all assessable parcels within the District is approximately 2,983.52 square feet. Each assessable parcel’s actual building size was divided by the District’s average building size to determine a Building Factor.
Parcel's Building
Square Feet / District's Average
Building Square Feet = Parcel's
Building Factor
4.1.2 LOT FACTOR
The average lot size for all assessable parcels within the District is approximately 18,264.12 square feet.
Each assessable parcel’s actual lot square footage was divided by the District’s average lot square footage to determine a Lot Factor.
Parcel's Lot
Square Feet / District's Average
Lot Square Feet = Parcel's
Lot Factor
4.1.3 ADT FACTOR
The average daily trip (ADT) count for all assessable parcels within the District is 12.48 trips. Each assessable parcel’s ADT was divided by the District’s ADT to determine the parcel’s ADT factor.
Parcel's
Trips / District's Average Trips =Parcel's

Packet Page 450 of 839Attachment 21 Page 10 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 13 Assessable parcels were assigned trip generation rates by land use classification in accordance with the Institute for Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (11 th Edition). Per the ITE Trip Generation User’s Guide, a “Trip” is defined as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting and entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total number of trips for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period.”
The ADT rates used in this analysis are shown in the table below. ADT rates came from the ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition), unless otherwise noted. For land uses with multiple ITE Codes, an average trip value was used for the ADT rate. Only those land use classifications currently being assessed at the time of preparation of this report are included below. Any future changes to a parcel’s land use classification resulting in changes to the parcel’s ADT rates will be based on the values found in the 11th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual.

4.2 Land Use
In addition to building size, lot size and average daily trip generation a parcel’s land use will also affect the special benefits received. Following the calculation of each parcel’s characteristic factors in Section 4.1 above, Land Use Benefit Points were assigned. These benefit points correspond to the special benefits described in the Benefits section of this report.
Each parcel within the proposed District boundary is assigned a land use classification for purposes of determining the special benefits received. Below is a description of the land use classifications to be assessed within the District. Not all land use classifications below are currently within the District.
Assisted Living Property consists of parcels used for residential care, providing assistance with activities and daily living and social care.
Commercial Property consists of parcels used for commercial, for-profit or non-profit purposes including, but not limited to, retail, offices, restaurants, commercial garages, private schools, hotels/motels, medical/dental offices, and privately-owned pay-to-use parking lots and structures.
Clubhouse/Recreation Property consists of parcels utilized for club houses, locker rooms, maintenance facilities, prop shops, tennis courts, swimming pools, restaurants or banquet facilities.
Packet Page 451 of 839Attachment 21 Page 11 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 14 Multi-Family Residential Property consists of parcels that are duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and condominiums used exclusively for residential purposes.
Park Property consists of certain park parcels that are not being maintained by the District or included as part of the District Improvements.
Public Property consists of parcels used for public purposes including, golf courses, police and fire stations, public schools, libraries and other government administration buildings.
Single Family Residential Property consists of parcels that have stand-alone residential dwelling units with their own lots intended for one family.
Undeveloped Property consists of parcels with no structure value.
There are currently a total of 1,218 assessable parcels within the District. Additionally, there are 127 parcels in the District deemed to receive no benefit from the Improvements and are therefore non- assessable. These parcels include, but are not limited to: conservation easements, restricted use parcels, streets, right of ways, and parcels which are the Improvements themselves. Typical Solano County use codes include, but are not limited to 6100, 6400, 6462, 6463, 6464, 9100, 9600, and 9700.
4.2.1 APPORTIONING SAFETY AND ACCESSIBILITY BENEFIT
The Safety and Accessibility Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. Safety can be thought of as a universal need. Its importance can be seen in the fact that everyone desires to live and work in safe, crime-free areas (Lau Leby 2010). Therefore, because levels of safety affect all land uses, it follows that an increase in safety will specially benefit all land use classifications. Additionally, as noted in Section 3.1, the usefulness of a parcel cannot be realized unless it is accessible. As the street lighting Improvements allow for increased visibility around assessed parcels and easier access to properties throughout the District, these benefits are also not restricted to a particular land use.
However, due to their limited activity during the dusk to dawn hours, Park, Public and Undeveloped land use classifications will not experience the same level of safety and accessibility benefits compared to other land use classifications. For example, Park, Public and Undeveloped land use classifications experience limited activities during the evening hours when the greatest safety benefit from street lighting is received.
However, it is recognized that a visible and well-lit property, especially during the nighttime hours, will aid in deterring dumping and other illegal activities, such as property-related crime and will allow for access in case of an emergency. To account for this limited special benefit, Park and Public land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 0.50 and Undeveloped land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of
0.25 for Safety and Accessibility. All other land use classifications will be assigned 1 Safety and Accessibility Benefit Point.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved safety and accessibility from street lighting, as property-related benefits, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its lot size, and daily trip generation. Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Safety and Accessibility Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-utilized parcels.
Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT factor are used to measure Safety and Accessibility Packet Page 452 of 839Attachment 21 Page 12 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 15 Benefits. The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.
4.2.2 APPORTIONING AESTHETIC BENEFIT
The Aesthetic Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. The benefit of visual appeal is not restricted to a particular land use. A more attractive public environment specially benefits all parcels irrespective of land use classification. Accordingly, each assessable land use classification will be assigned one Aesthetic Benefit Point. However, Undeveloped land use classifications will be assigned 0.25 Aesthetic Benefit Point due to the nature of the land use. Per the definition in Section 3.2.1, “the street trees and other landscaping are believed to create a more beautiful, aesthetically pleasing environment within the District and they enhance the overall image and desirability of the properties within the District.” As such, there is some aesthetic benefit conferred by the Improvements on undeveloped land use classifications. However, this benefit is limited, as undeveloped parcels are not utilized as areas recognized in the definition of aesthetic benefit of social interactions, areas where residents are likely to walk, areas of stimulated economic activity or locations that will attract residents and/or visitors to the community. Therefore, the undeveloped land use classifications are assigned the reduced 0.25 Aesthetic Benefit Points due to the nature of the land use compared to the developed land use classifications . The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
Additionally, all land use classifications located in proximity to interior landscaping will experience a greater level of aesthetic benefits compared to other land use classifications. To account for this added benefit, Undeveloped parcels designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.10 benefit points for Aesthetic and all other land uses designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.20 benefit points for Aesthetic. For example, Single Family Residential (Interior Landscaping) land uses are assigned a benefit point of 1.2 and Undeveloped (Interior Landscaping) land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 0.35 for Aesthetic. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved aesthetics from tree and landscaping Improvements, as property-related benefits, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its lot size, and daily trip generation. Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Aesthetic Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-developed parcels. Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT Factor are used to measure Aesthetic Benefits.
The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.
4.2.3 APPORTIONING LIVABILITY BENEFIT
The Livability Benefits conferred by the Improvements will specially benefit all assessable land use classifications. Livability represents the desirability to reside in an area based on the characteristics of the environment that make an area a more attractive place to live. Accordingly, each assessable land use classification will be assigned one Livability Benefit Point. However, undeveloped land use classification will be assigned 0.25 Livability Benefit Point due to the nature of the land use. Per the definition in Section Packet Page 453 of 839Attachment 21 Page 13 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 16
3.2.1, livability is a measurement of factors that add up to a community’s quality of life. The presence of natural areas and green landscapes are positively related to neighborhood satisfaction. As such, there is some livability benefit conferred by the Improvements on undeveloped land use classifications. However, this benefit is limited, as undeveloped parcels are not utilized as areas recognized in the definition of livability benefit for “economic prosperity, social stability and equity, cultural, entertainment or recreation possibilities.” Therefore, the undeveloped land use classifications are assigned the reduced 0.25 Livability Benefit Points due to the nature of the land use compared to the developed land use classifications.
Additionally, all land use classifications located in proximity to interior landscaping will experience a greater level of livability benefits compared to other land use classifications. To account for this added benefit, Undeveloped parcels designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.10 benefit points for Livability and all other land uses designated with the Interior Landscaping land use classification are assigned an additional 0.20 benefit points for Livability. For example, Single Family Residential (Interior Landscaping) land uses are assigned a benefit point of 1.2 and Undeveloped (Interior Landscaping) land use classifications are assigned a benefit point of 0.35 for Livability. The table provided in Section 4.2.4 of this Report provides a summary of the land use benefit points assigned to the assessable land use classifications within the District.
After the land use benefit points have been assigned by land use classifications within the District, improved livability from tree and landscaping Improvements, as a property related benefit, can be measured by the characteristics of a parcel, namely the size of a building, its size, and trip generation.
Parcels with larger building and lot sizes and parcels with greater intensity of use, measured by trip generation, will experience the Livability Benefits to a greater degree than smaller, less-developed parcels.
Therefore, the Lot Factor, Building Factor and ADT Factor are used to measure Livability Benefits. The calculation of Total Special Benefit Points for each parcel is detailed in Section 4.3 of this report.

5. SEPARATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF GENERAL
BENEFITS
As described in the Introduction, only special benefits are assessable and in order to assess only special benefits, the general benefits resulting from the Improvements must be separated and quantified. This section describes the process used to separate and quantify the general benefits.
5.1 Summary
As detailed below, it is estimated the Improvements will confer an Overall General Benefit of 31.85%.
5.2 General Benefit Analysis
5.2.1 GENERAL BENEFIT: VEHICLES PASSING THROUGH THE DISTRICT Traffic volume is utilized to help determine special benefits accruing to the District as opposed to the general benefits received by the public at large from the Improvements. As a result of the Improvements, there will be a level of general benefit conferred to pass-through vehicle traffic related to properties outside of the District whose occupants do not intend to access property within the District. As such, the benefit derived by pass-through vehicle traffic needs to be quantified. The percentage of pass-through vehicle traffic is calculated by comparing the estimated daily District generated vehicle trips to the total roadway design capacity, as detailed below.
In order to determine the average daily trips generated by parcels located within the District, the Institute of Transportation Engineer’s (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook was utilized to estimate the average daily trip counts by land use classification for each parcel. Per the ITE Trip Generation User’s Guide, a “Trip” is defined as a “single or one-direction vehicle movement with either the origin or the destination (exiting and entering) inside a study site. For trip generation purposes, the total trips for a land use over a given period of time are the total of all trips entering plus all trips exiting a site during a designated time period.” The ADT rates used in this analysis are shown in the table below and came from ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). Any future changes to land use classifications resulting in changes to a parcel’s ADT rates will be based on the values found in the 11 th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual.

(1) Calculated based upon total units, represents 1 parcel.
Roadway design capacity is a critical element that affects trip distribution and was utilized in this analysis to estimate the number of daily vehicle trips passing through the District. From a visual inspection of the District, the primary higher functional classification roadways serving the District parcels are Mankas Corner Road and Rancho Solano Parkway. Roadway design capacities, as defined in the City of Fairfield’s Travel Demand Forecasting Model, were estimated based on the functional classification of the roadway, the number of lanes, and the City’s minimum recommended Level of Service “C” (City of Fairfield Design, Construction and Materials Specification Handbook 2020). Roadway design capacity was calculated for the higher functional classification roadways (henceforth referred to as the “Major Roads”) identified above in order to estimate the total daily traffic flow through the District.
Using the methodology described above, the estimated pass-through vehicular traffic through the District is 79.07% as summarized in the table below:

(1) Equals (Vehicle Trips Passing Through District on Roadway / Total Vehicle Trips Passing Through District). (2) Equals (% of Total Roadway Design Capacity x Pass Through %).
Additionally, there are bike lanes present on Mankas Corner Road, which provides added roadway capacity in the form of additional lanes in the roadway cross-section designated exclusively for the use of bicycles.
The Federal Highway Administration’s Technical Report entitled “Capacity Analysis of Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities” was utilized to estimate the additional roadway capacity provided by the bike lanes based on the type of facility (namely on-street bicycle facilities), the number of lanes, and the City’s minimum recommended Level of Service “C” (City of Fairfield Design, Construction and Materials Specification Handbook 2020). An estimated pass-through bicycle traffic percentage of 79.07% was utilized, consistent with the estimated pass-through vehicular traffic percentage through the District calculated above.
Packet Page 457 of 839Attachment 21 Page 17 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 20 However, simply estimating the number of pass-through vehicle and bicycle trips does not necessarily indicate the level of benefit accruing to vehicles passing through the District. We must look at each of the Improvements individually.
5.2.2 GENERAL BENEFIT: STREET LIGHTING
The street lights to be funded by the assessment are on the Major Roads identified in Section 5.2.1.
Accordingly, some of the safety and access benefits will be conferred to vehicles that are just passing through the District. An analysis of the street lights was prepared comparing the number of street lights located on the Major Roads to the total number of street lights within the District.
The street lighting Improvements are located along Mankas Corner Road and Rancho Solano Parkway within the District. The trips generated by the property within the District was taken as a percent of the total traffic on the Major Roads.
Additionally, there are bike lanes on Mankas Corner Road, and this is recognized as contributing additional general benefit to the street lighting Improvements.
As summarized in the table below, the Effective General Benefit percentage from the Street Lighting Improvements is 26.08%.

5.2.3 GENERAL BENEFIT: STREET TREES AND OTHER LANDSCAPING Certain street trees and other landscaping to be funded by the assessment are on the Major Roads as described previously. Accordingly, some of the aesthetic and livability benefits will be conferred to traffic passing through the District. An analysis of the street trees and landscaping areas within the District was conducted and whenever street trees and landscaping areas were located within close proximity to the Major Roads, those trees were considered as belonging to the Major Roads.
The landscaping Improvements are located throughout the District. Additionally, there are bike lanes on Mankas Corner Road, and this is recognized as contributing additional general benefit to the Landscaping Improvements. As summarized in the table below, the Effective General Benefit percentage from the Landscaping Improvements is 5.78%.

5.2.4 OVERALL GENERAL BENEFIT
In order to determine an overall general benefit percentage to apply to the District, it is necessary to combine the separately analyzed components of each of the general benefits described above. As the benefits conferred by the Street Lights Improvements and by Street Trees and Other Landscaping Improvements are independent of each other, it is appropriate to combine the individual general benefit percentages to determine a cumulative Overall General Benefit. The table below is a summary of the Overall General Benefit for the District.

6.1 Maximum Amount to Be Assessed
The total maximum amount to be assessed upon the assessable parcels is the total cost of the Improvements, as detailed above, less the portion of costs attributable to General Benefit as detailed in the Separation and Quantification of General Benefits section.
The calculation of the balance to be assessed is shown below:
Description Amount
Total Cost of Improvements $1,156,830
Less General Benefit Portion (Lighting – 26.08%) (1,904) Less General Benefit Portion (Landscaping – 5.78%) (59,974) Total Cost of Improvements to Be Assessed $1,094,952 (1) (1) The Total Cost of Improvements to be Assessed does not add due to rounding. The final assessment rates in Section 9 have been truncated to two decimal places.
6.2 FY 23/24 Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point for Each Improvement Type
The Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point is calculated by dividing the total costs to be Assessed by the total Special Benefit Points assigned to the parcels within the District for each Improvement Type. The following formula provides the assessment rate per Special Benefit Point for each Improvement type.
Total Street Lighting Costs to be Assessed / Total Street Lighting Special Benefit Points = ($6,181.10) (6,653.15)
Assessment Rate per Street Lighting Special Benefit Point ($0.9290)
Total Landscaping Costs to be Assessed / Total Landscaping Special Benefit Points = ($1,088,771.33) (7,498.72)
Assessment Rate per Landscaping Special Benefit Point
($145.1943)
The Maximum Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point for each Improvement Type is then multiplied by each parcel’s total special benefit points to determine the maximum assessment amount per parcel.
6.3 Annual Maximum Assessment Rate Inflation for Each Improvement Type (Street Lighting and Landscaping)
Each parcel’s maximum assessment for an Improvement type is determined by multiplying the maximum assessment rate per special benefit point by the parcel’s total special benefit points. If the total special benefit points for all assessable parcels in the District change in future years, the maximum allowable Packet Page 461 of 839Attachment 21 Page 21 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 24 annual assessment rate per special benefit point will not be recalculated. The maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point, plus the annual cost of living inflator, will remain fixed. The actual annual assessment rate per special benefit point will be calculated by dividing the fiscal year’s total cost of improvements to be assessed by the total special benefit points, not to exceed the maximum allowable annual assessment rate per special benefit point for that fiscal year. The maximum allowable assessment rate per special benefit point is escalated each year on July 1 by the annual change in the February to February Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, for the San Francisco-Oakland- Hayward CA region, not to exceed 3% annually, beginning July 1, 2024.
In any given year, the assessments may be at any rate sufficient to meet the estimated budget and levied without undertaking an assessment ballot proceeding, as long as the actual assessment rate per special benefit point does not exceed the Maximum Assessment Rate per special benefit point for that fiscal year.
If the change in CPI effective for any fiscal year is determined to be negative, the maximum assessment rate will remain unchanged from the previous fiscal year. The actual assessment rate may vary from year to year but will be no higher than the maximum rate.
6.4 Future Changes to Parcel Characteristics
Future changes to any of the parcel characteristics detailed in Section 4 will cause possible changes in the total assessment revenue. The assessment revenue for any given year will be the product of the District’s parcel characteristics, special benefit points and the budget in effect for such fiscal year. Development within the District that increases the overall building square footage, for example, will lead to possible increased assessment revenue, even if the assessment rate per special benefit point is not increased. By way of example, when a previously undeveloped parcel develops into a single family residential land use classification, the parcel will no longer be assessed as an undeveloped land use, but rather as a single family residential parcel with the updated parcel characteristics.
6.5 Data for Annual Assessment Calculations
Each year, as part of the assessment calculation procedures, the City or its designated consultant shall determine the land use classification for each parcel based on the County Assessor's use code or other supplementary information made available and deemed reliable. The parcel characteristics of building square footage and lot square footage shall similarly be based on the County Assessor's secured roll data for the applicable tax year and may be supplemented with other reliable data sources, such as County Assessor's parcel maps and GIS data.
Assessment amounts for each parcel may change over time in accordance with changes to parcel characteristics including land use classification, building square footage, lot square footage and average daily trip generation.
6.6 Appeals
If any property owner believes the data used to calculate the assessment is inaccurate for any reason, the property owner shall submit, in writing, a request for review to the City. The property owner shall provide documentation to support the request for review. The City or its designated consultant shall review the request and provide a response to the property owner. The property owner must be current in the Packet Page 462 of 839Attachment 21 Page 22 of 67
City of Fairfield
Engineer’s Report – Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. 2023-5 (Rancho Solano) 25 payment of all assessments when filing the request for review and must remain current during the review process.
If the review conducted by the City or its designated consultant results in the approval for changes to any parcel characteristics used to compute the assessment, the City or its designated consultant shall recalculate the assessment. When recalculating the assessment, the assessment rates actually applied in such fiscal year shall be used. Only the assessment for the parcel or parcels subject to review shall be recalculated.
If the recalculated assessment for the parcel or parcels being reviewed is less than the amount submitted to the County on the secured property tax roll, the difference shall be credited back to the property owner in a manner approved by the City. This credit shall be limited to the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year, if applicable. The “fiscal year” shall follow the County’s fiscal year for property taxes, from July 1 to June 30. The applicable fiscal year shall be determined by the date the request for review is submitted to the City.
The credit may be provided in the form of a check issued to the property owner, an adjustment to the current year’s property tax roll (if possible), or a credit to the succeeding year’s assessment thereby reducing the amount placed on the secured property tax roll for such year.
If the recalculated assessment is greater than the amount submitted to the County on the secured property tax roll, the City or its designated consultant shall apply the recalculated assessment to the succeeding year’s property tax roll and no adjustments shall be made to the prior or current fiscal years’ assessments.
In any dispute over parcel characteristic data used to compute assessments, the City Manager (or his/her designee) shall make a conclusive determination and its decision shall be final.
6.7 Method of Collection
The assessments will be collected annually on the Solano County secured property tax roll. The assessments will be subject to the County’s assigned due dates and late penalties. However, the City Manager (or his/her designee) may choose to collect the assessments in an alternate manner (including directly billing the property owner) as may be deemed appropriate or necessary by the City or as allowed by law.
