10. Capital Improvement Program Work Session: Review of Recommended Capital Improvement Program for Fiscal Year 2025 - Fiscal Year 2034 WS 24-014

Staff report submitted by Public Works Director Ameri, dated May 7, 2024, was filed.

Public Works Director Ameri announced the Fiscal Years 2025 -2034 Recommended Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and introduced Management Analyst Michael Wolny who provided an overview of the recommendation.

Mayor Salinas opened the public comment section at 8:20 p.m.

Kay questioned what proactive actions are being taken to address homelessness and tenant rights in the CIP, and added that City employees expressed concerns about cost of living.

Suzanne, Hayward Concerned Citizens member, sought clarification on where in the proposed budget is money allocated for the new safety building.

Mayor Salinas closed the public comment section at 8:24 p.m.

Members of the City Council thanked staff for the ir work with the CIP budget and members of the Council Infrastructure Committee for their review; expressed appreciation for the user- friendly online budget portal and the addition of status reports for transparency. 8 | M a y 7 , 202 4
Discussion ensued among members of the City Council and City staff and the following clarifications were made:
a small percentage of the $1 billion Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget would come from the General Fund over a ten -year period and most funding would come from self - sufficient City enterprises like water, sewer, and the airport; projects are prioritized by fiscal year, with specific projects for Fiscal Year 2025 already outlined; the recently approved $12 million for street sections is part of the Fiscal Year 2024 planning; coordination between sewer and pavement projects exists, with the sewer Enterprise Fund-supported covering pipeline replacement and backfilling, and the Pavement Rehabilitation project handling repaving the street ; there are ongoing discussions with Caltrans regarding the need for improving pedestrian access at the Tennyson/I-880 Interchange and staff is also looking for grants; there are various public art management opportunities, such as cross walks; the increase in security funds was increased to pursue priority items such as the Watkins garage; the CIP budget covers infrastructure projects, while the operating budget covers daily operations and staffing; the City is collecting public input on support of facility needs, such as the Public Safety Center which would potentially benefit from the potential extension of the half-cent sales tax; the Hayward Housing Navigation Center (Project 06955) is closing out in Fiscal Year 2024; there is ongoing efforts to secure grants for unfunded capital projects beyond the potential expansion of the half-cent sales tax; there is an emphasis on equity in prioritizing street repaving projects, considering both technical assessments and community feedback; there was specific funding transfers involving Measure C funds; the Orchard Avenue project includes improvements such as traffic calming measures; there were updates on sidewalk improvements near the Mission Boulevard Linear Park and the Mission Boulevard Corridor Improvements Phase Three project ; and the replacement of the Hayward sign on Jackson Boulevard is in progress.

Members of the Council offered the following suggestions: since the Russell City Engagement & Art (Project 06922) does not have a budget allocation, confirm if there is a recommendation looped into other budget recommendations; explore ways in how the City works as a community to bring more funds for critical projects beyond pursuing grants and potential extension of the half-cent sales tax; evaluate the need for a street sign at the intersection of E Street and East Avenue due to its dangerous nature; and as other projects in the City are considered, take into account an interdisciplinary approach and make sure maintenance is involved.

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a 36-Month Agreement with Peregrine Technologies for Data Integration Services, with the Option to Renew for One Additional 36-Month Term, in a Total Amount Not-to-Exceed $1,056,000

RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to execute a 36-month agreement with Peregrine Technologies for a multi-platform integration software subscription, with the option to renew for one additional 36-month term, in a total amount not to exceed $1,056,000.

SUMMARY
The Hayward Police Department currently uses multiple data systems for its daily operations; the majority of which operate separately and are not linked. That being the case a significant amount of time, training, and effort is spent to cross analyze case-related data and effectively investigate crime trends.

These systems do not currently allow the department to both proactively understand and respond to public safety concerns in real time.

Peregrine is an advanced analytic platform that provides a single point of access to view and analyze large-scale, real-time data from multiple data sources. The software performs several critical functionalities including data integration, search and information retrieval, advanced analytics, data management, collaboration, access control, and security.

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a 36-Month Agreement with Peregrine Technologies for Data Integration Services With the Option to Renew for One Additional 36-Month Term, in a Total Amount Not-to- Exceed $1,056,000

RECOMMENDATION

That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to execute a 36-month agreement with Peregrine Technologies for a multi-platform integration software subscription, with the option to renew for one additional 36-month term, in a total amount not to exceed $1,056,000.

BACKGROUND

The Hayward Police Department currently uses multiple data systems for its daily operations; the majority of which operate separately and are not linked. That being the case a significant amount of time, training, and effort is spent to cross analyze case-related data and effectively investigate crime trends. These systems do not currently allow the department to both proactively understand and respond to public safety concerns in real time.

Peregrine is an advanced analytic platform that provides a single point of access to view and analyze large-scale, real-time data from multiple data sources. The software performs several critical functionalities including data integration, search and information retrieval, advanced analytics, data management, collaboration, access control, and security.

DISCUSSION

Peregrine Technologies provides a comprehensive solution for data integration through their proprietary software that allows all personnel to access multiple databases through one useful, actionable, portal. Peregrine will integrate new and archived Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) data, new and archived Records Management Systems (RMS) data, traffic accident diagrams and reporting, mapping information, body and dash camera footage, automatic

Page 2 of 3 ends

license plate reader information (to include the Flock License Plate Reader system being expanded), and many other Public Safety data sources. This will create a comprehensive dashboard to easily gain immediate, real-time, access to virtually all of Hayward’s Public Safety information.

Currently, the process of critically analyzing data and producing meaningful reports is primarily done manually. This is extremely inefficient and costly. Peregrine Technologies provides a powerful, unique solution that allows for intelligent analysis and reporting capabilities across all platforms and applications currently utilized by the Police Department, and can also integrate other citywide platforms. Peregrine does not create or bring any new data to the city, but rather utilizes data from systems the city owns and makes it quickly functional. In addition to significant improvements to police operations, the system will also act as a workforce multiplier by creating operational efficiencies, particularly regarding crime stat reporting and real-time investigative tools. This is now a cumbersome manual process involving many individuals in various roles.

Peregrine provides a powerful solution to address the demand for increased transparency by enabling staff to more easily respond to Public Records Act requests, subpoenas, and the public demand for meaningful fact-based information related to policing (i.e., informal and formal public contacts, community engagement, deployment of resources, crime trends, policies and procedures, use of force, etc.).

The cost for Peregrine Technologies’ hosted system with data integration services is $528,000 for a three-year contract, including a 15% contingency. The department also requests the option to renew for one additional three-year term for a total not to exceed amount of $1,056,000 for six (6) years, including a 15% contingency.

FISCAL IMPACT

The aggregate three-year subscription with Peregrine Technologies is $528,000 An option to renew for one additional 36-month term would total a not-to-exceed of $1,056,000 with Peregrine Technologies The annual cost of the software would be $153,000, plus the 15% contingency, for a total annual budget of up to $176,000.

The initial two fiscal years (FY 2024 and FY 2025) of this agreement with Peregrine Technologies will not have an additional impact on the City’s General Fund as the department intends to use salary savings from vacant positions to offset the cost of the agreement. Beginning in FY 2026, staff will establish a Capital Improvement Project for Council’s consideration.

STRATEGIC ROADMAP

While this agenda item does not directly support one of its 27 enumerated projects, the agreement with Peregrine Technologies would further the Strategic Priority of Enhancing Community Safety and Quality of Life through its centralized platform that connects a variety of Hayward Police Department data systems and presents the results in a single

Page 3 of 3 ends

comprehensive dashboard. With this new data integration, police staff will be able to immediately surface and identify actionable information to prevent and respond to crimes, conduct more in-depth investigations, and ultimately solve and prevent more crime in Hayward.

NEXT STEPS

If the Council authorizes this action, staff will enter into an agreement with Peregrine Technologies for Data Integration Services in the amount not-to-exceed $1,056,000 over six years.

SUBJECT
Adopt a Resolution Authorizing an Affordable Housing Funding Agreement Between the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward and the City of Hayward Granting $2 Million in ARPA-SLFRF Funds to the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward for the Down Payment Assistance Program

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute an affordable housing funding agreement between the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward and the City of Hayward granting $2 million of APRA-SLFRF funds to the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward; and
That the Housing Authority Board adopt a resolution authorizing the Executive Director to: (1) negotiate and execute an affordable housing funding agreement between the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward and the City of Hayward granting $2 million of APRA-SLFRF funds to the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward; and (2) execute loan documents, administer the loans and subordinate, extend or modify repayment terms to implement affordable housing activities under ARPA-SLFRF rules.

SUMMARY
On June 6, 2023, the City Council approved the reallocation of $2 million in American Rescue Plan Act 2021 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (“ARPA-SLFRF”)allocated for housing programs to establish a down payment assistance program and revolving loan fund to assist both current and future low-income homebuyers.

program to the Authority to obligate the funds by the December 31, 2024 ARPA-SLFRF program deadline and authorize the Authority to administer the down payment assistance program.

BACKGROUND

On May 31, 1946, City Council approved Resolution No. 1669 N.S. establishing the Housing Authority of the City of Hayward to provide decent, safe and sanitary housing in the City of Hayward.

On April 27, 2021, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the acceptance of $38 million in federal stimulus allocation under the American Rescue Plan of 2021 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (“ARPA-SLFRF”) program.1 On July 13, 2021, City Council approved the Hayward Federal Stimulus Expenditure Plan which included $4.25 million for housing programs.2 On June 6, 2023, the City Council approved the reallocation of $2 million in ARPA-SLFRF allocated for housing programs to establish a down payment assistance program and revolving loan fund to assist both current and future low -income homebuyers.3 In that same meetin g, City Council expressed support for pairing the down payment assistance program with a social impact bonds (“SIB”) program or making the down payment assistance program a standalone program if the SIB program was not feasible. Staff are still working with non-profit partners and consultants to determine the feasibility of the SIB program which has delayed the implementation of the down payment assistance program.

DISCUSSION

To meet the December 31, 2024 deadline to obligate ARPA-SLFRF, staff recommends obligating $2 million in ARPA-SLFRF to the Authority to administer the down payment assistance program. Down payment assistance is one tool to address barriers to homeownership and to help mitigate the racial wealth divide. The down payment assistance would be provided in the form of a shared appreciation loan in an amount not -to-exceed $300,000. To be eligible , borrowers must be low -income, first-time homebuyers, and preference will be given to applicants that either live or work in the City of Hayward. Additionally, to ensure that the down payment assistance program will also assist future households, a revolving loan fund will be established to provide down payment assistance loans to future eligible households from loan proceeds.

Subject to finalizing the SIB program before the end of the calendar year, staff intends to pair the down payment assistance program with a SIB program. The SIB program would use bond

proceeds to acquire vacant or blighted properties and rehabilitate them for resale at affordable prices to eligible first-time homebuyers. Staff are still working with non-profit partners and consultants to determine the feasibility of such a program which has delayed the implementation of the down payment assistance program. If staff determines that the SIB program will not have properties available in a timely manner, the Authority would provide down payment assistance to assist eligible community members purchase market ra te properties.

To obligate $2 million in ARPA-SLFRF funds for the purpose of establishing a down payment assistance program, staff recommend that the Authority and the City enter into an affordable housing funding agreement. The primary terms of the affordable housing funding agreement include:

 City to provide Authority with grant of $2 million in ARPA-SLFRF funds;  The Authority will provide affordable housing program activities in compliance with ARPA-SLFRF regulations and rules;
 Authority to expend all funds by December 31, 2026.

A term sheet has been provided as Attachment IV with additional details about the terms of the affordable housing funding agreement.

ECONOMIC IMPACT

There is no immediate economic impact with the consideration of this report.

FISCAL IMPACT

This item has no impact on the City’s General Fund. The down payment assistance program is funded by ARPA-SLFRF designated for housing programs in the FY 2024 budget.

STRATEGIC ROADMAP

This agenda item supports the Strategic Priority of Preserve, Protect & Produce Housing. The purpose of the Preserve, Protect & Produce Housing Initiative is to house and support people experiencing homelessness, incentivize housing production for all and protect the affordability of existing housing. This item supports the following goals and objectives:

Goal: Protect the Affordability of Existing Housing
Objective H16: Provide creative financing like down payment assistance to help more buyers get unrestricted deed properties.

If paired with the SIB program, this item would also support the following goal and objective:

Goal: Incentivize Housing Production for All

Page 4 of 4 ends

Objective H7: Explore Social Impact Bond Program to convert tax-defaulted or vacant and blighted properties into wealth building ownership opportunities.

PUBLIC CONTACT

Staff received a public comment in support of the down payment assistance program at the April 25, 2023 City Council meeting.

NEXT STEPS

Staff will work with City Attorney’s Office to draft the affordable housing funding agreement.

Staff will implement the down payment assistance program either in conjunction with the SIB program or independent of it with sufficient time to meet the December 31, 2026 expenditure deadline.

SUBJECT: HASPA JPA: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement for the Hayward Area Shoreline Planning Agency (HASPA) and Appropriate $ 31,800 in total from the General Fund for HASPA Dues for Fiscal Year 2025 (FY 2025)

RECOMMENDATION

That the City Council adopts the Resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to execute a new Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement for the Hayward Area Shoreline Planning Agency (HASPA) and appropriate $31,800 in total from the General Fund for annual dues to operate the HASPA for Fiscal Year 2025 (FY 2025).

SUMMARY

The Hayward Area Shoreline Planning Agency (HASPA) is a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) currently comprised of three trustee agencies: the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD), the City of Hayward and the Hayward Area Recreation and Park District (HARD). Following the adoption of the Hayward Regional Shoreline Adaptation Master Plan (Shoreline Master Plan), HASPA seeks to expand membership in the Agency, and have its powers and functions reflect the new mission of responding to climate change impacts at the shoreline. As a result, staff collaborated on a new JPA agreement which proposed to add the Oro Loma Sanitary District (OLSD) and the Alameda County Mosquito Abatement District (ACMAD) and changes to the organizational structure to help facilitate implementation of the Shoreline Master Plan. To increase HASPA’s capacity and enable it to hire a professional manager, the HASPA Board of Trustees have recommended increased dues for member agencies. The City’s dues are proposed to be $31,800 in FY 2025.

BACKGROUND

HASPA is a JPA currently comprised of three trustee agencies: EBRPD, the City of Hayward and HARD. Formed in 1970, HASPA’s original purpose, which has been fulfilled, was to study, plan, and adopt policies concerning the land uses in the Hayward Shoreline area. In 2016, the JPA was renewed and restated HASPA’s mission to address sea level rise. The most recent renewal of the JPA was in 2023 and the agreement is currently set to expire on June 30, 2024.

Page 2 of 6 ends

Today, with the presence of climate change impacts, such as projected sea-level rise, groundwater intrusion, and storm surge, protecting infrastructure, public health, and the natural and recreational resources of the Hayward Shoreline requires a renewed commitment between public agencies. In 2021, with a grant from Caltrans, HASPA and the City Council adopted the Shoreline Master Plan, which creates a framework for a response to these climate change impacts on a region-wide scale.

The Master Plan contains nature-based, infrastructure and non-structural strategies for different areas of the Hayward Shoreline.

The three trustee agencies of HASPA wish to continue the existence of the JPA, expand participation in the agency, and have its powers and functions reflect the new mission of responding to climate change impacts at the shoreline. The goal of an expanded HASPA is to promote public health and climate adaptation measures, protect critical infrastructure at the shoreline, and maintain public access, as detailed in the Master Plan. EBRPD has started design and permitting for the Hayward Marsh restoration, which is one project identified in the Master Plan. Preliminary design work has also begun on the Oro Loma First Mile levee, currently lead by the East Bay Dischargers Authority (EBDA), a second project identified in the Master Plan. A summary of Master Plan projects currently underway was presented to the Council Sustainability Committee on June 26, 20231.

DISCUSSION

Since 2022, staff from HASPA’s Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) have worked collaboratively to add new agencies to the HASPA Board of Trustees, starting with two prospective agencies, the OLSD, and ACMAD. With guidance from EBRPD’s outside attorneys, a new draft JPA Agreement has been negotiated between the parties, to expand participation in HASPA, and to strengthen it as a governing agency which can address climate change impacts in the decades to come at the Hayward Shoreline.

On April 11, 20242, the current HASPA Board unanimously voted to recommend approval of the new JPA Agreement. During the week of May 6, 2024, the HARD3 and ACMAD4 Board of Directors both approved the new agreement. The EBRPD and OLSD Board of Directors will consider this item on June 4, 2024, and June 11, 2024, respectively.

The goals of the new HASPA JPA Agreement are to meet HASPA's evolving needs for the next 20+ years and to give the agency maximum flexibility to address possible future expansion in operations and management. This JPA Agreement seeks to balance the efficient functioning of the agency with adequate protections for the parties.

The JPA Agreement consists of 20 sections and four attachments, called “Schedules.” Of the new JPA Sections, “Organization” and “Budget,” contain the most substantial updates to the JPA. “Organization” describes how the HASPA Board of trustees will be structured:

The Agency will be governed by the HASPA Board, which is composed of representatives from each Party, who are known as trustees. Each party to this Agreement will appoint one member of its

1 https://hayward.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=6272057&GUID=EE24D41F-E339-4A48-94BB-76677B57383E&Options=&Search= 2 https://www.ebparks.org/hayward-area-shoreline-planning-agency-haspa 3 https://haywardrec.diligent.community/Portal/MeetingInformation.aspx?Id=63 4 https://www.mosquitoes.org/2024-05-08-board-of-trustees-regular-meeting

Page 3 of 6 ends

governing body to be a trustee and will appoint a second member of its governing body to be an alternate trustee to serve in the absence of that Party’s trustee. Each trustee and alternate will serve at the pleasure of his or her governing body. This structure is unchanged from the current structure of the HASPA JPA. Changes to current structure are described below.

Due to the varying sizes and operating budgets of the current HASPA trustee agencies and the prospective trustees, the parties negotiated a tiered membership structure for the purpose of assessing dues. The three tiers are based on the size of the trustee agency’s operating budget. EBRPD and the City of Hayward are the largest agencies, and so are in “Tier 3.” HARD staff have also decided to participate in HASPA as a Tier 3 member. Each tier contributes a set percentage of the annual HASPA Operating budget, which for FY 2025 is projected to be between $106,000 to $130,000. The HASPA Operating budget is dependent on the number of agencies that join (See below for further discussion). Tier 3 members, including the City of Hayward reflect an annual contribution of up to$31,800. Currently, the City of Hayward appropriates $12,000 for HASPA each fiscal year. Staff is requesting an additional appropriation of $19,800. Tier 1 member ACMAD would pay $10,600 for FY 2025. Larger agencies are responsible for a larger share of the dues as these agencies will experience the greatest impacts from climate change and benefits from successful implementation of the projects within the Shoreline Master Plan. Additionally, this structure allows agencies of different sizes the opportunity to participate in HASPA.

The proposed HASPA Operating Budget will allow the agency to hire a consultant to manage the agency. This role is currently filled by EBRPD and was previously filled by the City of Hayward staff.

The managing consultant will be responsible for administration of the agency, supporting the implementation of the Shoreline Master Plan and community outreach. This will allow the TAC more capacity to pursue grant funding and implement projects within the Shoreline Master Plan. The management of the consultant will rotate among the Tier 3 agencies.

The proposed JPA Agreement also includes the provision of “weighted voting,” where the three membership tiers also are assigned a proportional allocation of votes, for each trustee agency. Most decisions will be made by traditional majority vote, where each of the five trustee agencies has one vote, and a simple majority moves a motion. To ensure fairness, the JPA Agreement also provides that any agency can request weighted voting.

In the case of a motion subject to weighted voting, the City of Hayward’s share of a vote would be either 24 or 30% depending on how many agencies approve the new agreement. To get to a 51% weighted voting majority for a particular motion, the percentages of those trustees voting in favor of a motion would have to add up to 51%. With different dues depending on membership tiers, it is important to also have the provision of weighted voting, so that the agencies with the highest dues get a proportionally higher percentage of the vote, as a means of protecting the expense of public funds.

There is some uncertainty whether OLSD will join HASPA. In the following tables (Table 1 and Table 2) are the two possible scenarios showing dues and weighted voting. In each scenario, the dues percentage and the weighted vote percentage are the same for each agency in that tier.

ECONOMIC IMPACT

The City of Hayward is a desirable place to live and recreate in part because of the Hayward Shoreline. The Shoreline is a regional asset that has a positive impact on the local economy by attracting hikers, bird watchers, runners, cyclists, and other community members. The continuation of HASPA will ensure that the Shoreline remains accessible and climate resilient.

FISCAL IMPACT

The City of Hayward currently contributes $12,000 annually to HASPA in dues. The dues recently have been used to cover assistance from EBRPD’s outside attorney to draft the new JPA agreement and additional studies to help implement the Shoreline Master Plan. As noted in the Discussion section, HASPA is expanding its budget to allow for hiring a managing consultant, outreach, and implementation of the Shoreline Master Plan. For FY 2025, the requested allocation from the City of Hayward’s General Fund will not exceed $31,800 to cover these expenses. The FY 2025 operating budget includes $12,000 for the HASPA dues. As a result, an additional appropriation of $19,800 in FY 2025 is required to fund the full $31,800 in HPASA dues. For the following fiscal years, staff include a budget request as part of the annual budget process.

STRATEGIC ROADMAP

This project supports the Strategic Priority of Confront Climate Crisis and Champion Environmental Justice, however, it is not tied to implementation of any specific projects.

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution of Intention to Approve the Preliminary Engineer’s Report and Assessments for Fiscal Year 2025; and Set June 25, 2024, as the Public Hearing Date for Such Actions for Consolidated Landscaping and Lighting District No. 96-1, Zones 1 through 18

RECOMMENDATION

That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) of intention to approve the Preliminary Engineer’s Report (Attachment III) and assessments for Landscaping and Lighting District No. 96-1 for FY 2025 and sets June 25, 2024 as the public hearing date.

SUMMARY

The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 requires an annual review and update of the Engineer’s Report to set annual assessment rates for each benefit zone. Assessment rate recommendations are made based on annual expenses, required cash flow, and capital replacement requirements.

Recommended annual assessment rates cannot exceed the Maximum Base Assessment (MBA) Rate established when a zone was originally formed. The annual engineer’s report is included as Attachment III and includes a detailed summary for each of the eighteen benefit zones.

BACKGROUND

The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (Streets and Highways Code §22500) is a flexible tool used by local government agencies to form Landscaping and Lighting Assessment Districts to finance the cost and expense of operating, maintaining, and servicing landscaping (including parks), and lighting improvements in public areas. In 1996, six separate Landscaping and Lighting Districts, Benefit Zones 1-6, were consolidated into one district, Consolidated Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 96-1, “the District,” by the adoption of Resolution No. 96-63. In subsequent years, zones 7-18 were individually created and annexed into the District. This staff report and attached engineer’s report provide assessment, benefit, and budget details for each of the established eighteen zones. Table 1 on the following page provides a summary of the benefit zones, including the year in which each zone was formed and the number of assessable parcels within each zone.

DISCUSSION

Recommended changes to a zone’s annual assessment rate are based on annual expenses, required cash flow, and capital replacement requirements. When determining the annual assessment rate, staff looks at two things:

(1) Maximum Base Assessment (MBA) – The MBA is the maximum assessment rate that a parcel can be charged annually. This amount is established during the original formation of the zone.

The annual MBA can only be increased if an inflation factor was included in the original formation document.

(2) Assessment Revenue – The assessment revenue is the annual amount of revenue collected by charging each parcel an assessment rate. The assessment rate recommendation depends on review of the following three items:

a. Annual Expenses – Annual operating and maintenance expenses are estimated based on past years’ experience and future years’ estimates. Expenses include staff administration, noticing, and annual reporting.

Page 3 of 5 ends

b. Cash Flow – This is the amount of “cash” needed to pay monthly invoices when revenue is not received monthly (assessment rates are received through property tax revenues collected by Alameda County, which are transmitted to the City three times a year (January, May, and June).
c. Capital Replacement – This is the “savings account” where funds are collected and reserved each year to fund future capital replacement items. Future capital expenses are estimated based on an inventory of capital items, their useful life, and future replacement cost.

Table 2 on the following page summarizes assessment information by zone. The table provides assessment details for each zone by describing the number of parcels, if there is an annual inflation adjustment included in the MBA rate, the FY 2025 assessment rate, and the change between last year’s adopted assessment and this year’s recommended assessment.

For FY 2025, staff recommends no change to five zones (Zones: 5, 6, 14, 15 and 18) and thirteen increases (Zones: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, and 17), based on annual expenses, required cash flow, and future capital replacement.

Page 4 of 5 ends

Proposition 218 Compliance
For FY 2025, all assessments are proposed to be levied in compliance with Proposition 218 and do not require the noticing and balloting of property owners to obtain their approval. Any future increases in the assessment amounts that would exceed the MBA amount would require noticing and balloting of property owners.

FISCAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACT

There is no fiscal impact to the City’s General Fund from this recommendation; all expenditures are paid by assessment rates in each respective zone. All zones have adequate cash balances for annual expenses, cash flow, and capital replacement at this time.

PUBLIC CONTACT

City staff: 1) mailed a postcard to all affected property owners to provide details of their recommended FY 2025 assessment rate and to alert them to two Council meetings where they could provide input (June 4 and June 25); 2) held a virtual meeting on May 29 via Zoom; and 3) will publish a printed legal notice in the East Bay Times on or before June 14, 2024.

NEXT STEPS

Following this Council meeting, the City is proposing to hold a public hearing on June 25, 2024, to provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. After the public hearing, the Council may adopt a resolution setting the annual assessment amounts as originally proposed or as modified. Following the adoption of this resolution, the final assessor’s roll will be prepared and filed with the County Auditor’s office to be included on the FY 2025 tax roll. Payment of the assessment for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for property taxes. All funds collected through the assessment must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this report.

If Council adopts the attached resolution of intention, a noticed public hearing on June 25, 2024, to consider approving the Engineer’s Report and ordering the levy of assessments for FY 2025 will be scheduled.

Introduction
Overview
Each fiscal year an Engineer's Report (the "Report") is prepared and presented to the City of Hayward City Council (the "Council") describing the City’s Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. 96-1 (the "District"). The Report details changes to the D istrict or improvements, an estimate of the costs of the maintenance, operations, and servicing of the improvements, and the proposed budget and assessments for that fiscal year.

Through a professional service agreement with SCI Consulting Group (the “Consultant”), the City of Hayward (the “City”) has requested the Consultant prepare and file the Report for the referenced fiscal year. This is the detailed Report for Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2025 regarding the District and the proposed assessments to be levied on the properties therein to provide ongoing funding for the costs and expenses required to service and maintain landscape and lighting improvements associated with and resulting from development of properties within the District, in accordance with the proportional special benefits the properties receive from the improvements.

Following the preparation of the annual Report, a public hearing is held before the Council to allow the public an opportunity to hear and be heard regarding the District. Following consideration of all public comments and written protests at the noticed p ublic hearing, and review of the Report, the Council may order amendments to the Report or confirm the Report as submitted. Following final approval of the Report, and confirmation of the assessments, the Council shall order the levy and collection of asse ssments for FY 202 5. In such case, the levy information will be submitted to the Alameda County Auditor/Controller and included as assessments on the property tax roll for the various services provided in FY 2025.

Background
In November 1996, the voters of California adopted Proposition 218 (the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act"), which has been codified as Articles XIII C and XIII D of the California Constitution. The 1972 Act permits the creation of benefit zones within any indiv idual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). If, in any year, the proposed annual assessments for the District exceed the maximum assessments previously approved in a Proposition 218 proceeding (or grandfathered under Proposition 218), such an assessment would be considered a new or increased assessment and be confirmed through a mailed property owner protest ballot proceeding before that new or increased assessment could be imposed.

Method of Apportionment
Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping and street lighting improvements.

Section 22573 of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 requires that maintenance assessments must be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This Section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefit to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements."

TABLE 3: ESTIMATED CASH BALANCE CHANGES PER BENEFIT ZONE Cash Balance:

City of Hayward
LLAD No. 96-1
Engineer’s Report, FY 2025

Page 5 ends

The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7 (commencing with Section 5000)) [of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California]."
Proposition 218 also requires that maintenance assessments must be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the propo rtional special benefit conferred on the property. Because assessments are levied based on benefit, they are not considered a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution.

The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the im provement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." Article XIIID of the California Constitution provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements, and rights-of-ways.

Zone Classification
Each benefit zone is unique and distinguishable from other benefit zones located within the District. Each benefit zone is evaluated to determine which improvements are of a specific and direct benefit to the parcels in that benefit zone. Once the improvements have been identified, a method of spreading those costs to the benefiting parcels was developed.

As certain subdivisions develop throughout the City of Hayward, they may be annexed into an existing zone or there may be a new zone formed. Each new subdivision is evaluated to determine which improvements are of a specific and direct benefit to the parcels within the subdivision and then a determination is made whether to annex them into an existing zone or whether to form a new zone. The parcels, which benefit from the improvements, are identified and a benefit assessment spread methodology is developed to spread the costs of the improvements to the benefiting parcels.

Details of the various zones in the District, their corresponding number of parcels in each benefit zone, and the method of apportioning the costs of the improvements are in the zone description section.

Assessment Roll
A list of names and addresses of the owners of all parcels, and the description of each lot or parcel within the City’s Landscaping & Lighting Assessment District No. 96 -1 is shown on the last equalized Property Tax Roll of the Assessor of the County of Al ameda, which by reference is hereby made a part of this report.

This list is keyed to the Assessor's Parcel Numbers as shown on the Assessment Roll, which includes the proposed assessment amount for FY 202 5 apportioned to each lot or parcel. The Assessment Roll is on file in the Office of the City Clerk of the City of Hayward.

Estimate of Costs
The 1972 Act provides that the total cost of construction, operation, maintenance and servicing of the public landscaping, street lighting, open space facilities, parks, trails, etc. can be recovered by the District. Incidental expenses including administration of the district, engineering fees, legal fees and all other costs associated with the construction, operation, maintenance, and servicing of the district can also be included.

The 1972 Act requires that a special fund be set up for the revenues and expenditures for the District. Funds raised by the assessments shall be used only for the purposes as stated herein. Any balance remaining on July 1 at the end of the fiscal year must be carried over to the next fiscal year.

The estimated FY 2025 revenues and expenditures for the proposed District are itemized by zone below. For a detailed breakdown of the operation, maintenance, and servicing costs for each benefit zone, please refer to the budget page following each zone’s description.

Legislative Analysis
Proposition 218 Compliance 1
On November 5, 1996, California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act," which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 establishes new procedural req uirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts. These new procedures stipulate that even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition 218, future increases in assessments must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218. H owever, if an increase in the assessment was anticipated in the assessment formula (for example, to reflect the CPI or an assessment cap) then the City would be following the provisions of Proposition 218 if the assessments did not exceed the assessment formula.

All the assessments proposed within the FY 2025 Engineer’s Report are equal to or less than the Maximum Base Assessment Rate authorized; therefore, Article XIIID, Section 4 vote requirements do not apply to these proceedings.

Inflation Factor Allowance Overview
No Allowance - Five of the eighteen benefit zones (1, 2, 4, 5, 6) do not have an inflation factor allowance within their respective assessment formula to increase their Maximum Base Assessment.

Allowance - Thirteen of eighteen benefit zones (3, 7-18) have an inflation factor allowance within their respective assessment formula to increase their Maximum Base Assessment Rate annually based upon the change in the prior year’s CPI. Their inflation factor is described below.

Benefit zones 3, 7-13, 17-18 apply the February CPI-U for the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, CA MSA
2 inflation factor. The CPI -U increase from February 202 3 to February 202 4 was 2.36%; therefore, a 2.36% increase was applied to the FY 2025 Maximum Base Assessment Rate for zones 3, 7-13, 17-18.

Benefit zones 12 annexation, 14 -16 apply the December CPI -U for the San Francisco -Oakland- Hayward, CA MSA3 inflation factor, capped at 3.00% per fiscal year. Any change in the CPI in excess of 3.00% shall be cumulatively reserved as the “Unused CPI” and shall be used to increase the maximum authorized assessment rate in years in which the CPI is less than 3%. The CPI-U increase from December 2022 to December 2023 was 2.62% and the unused CPI from previous years is

3.53%; therefore, the Maximum Base Assessment Rate for zones 12 annexation, 14-16 have been increased by 3.00%.

Noticing, Public Comment, and Public Hearing
Noticing and information regarding this report were provided via the following methods: 1) mailed a notice to all affected property owners to provide detail of their recommended FY 202 5 assessment rate and to alert them to three public meetings where they could provide input (May 29, June 4, June 25), and published a legal notice in the East Bay Times on or before June 14, 2024.

On June 25, 2024, the City is proposing to hold a public hearing to provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. After the public hearing, the Council may adopt a resolution setting the annual assessment amounts as originally proposed or as modified. Following the adoption of this resolution, the final assessor’s roll will be prepared and filed with the Alameda County Auditor’s Office to be included on the FY 2025 tax roll. Payment of the assessment for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for property taxes.

All funds collected through the assessment must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this report.

Notes:
• In FY 2004, a group of property owners within Zone 3 formed a Landscape Committee. • In FY 2006, a Proposition 218 Election was held to increase the base assessment amount from $328.82 to $1,023.56 per parcel for the first three years to fund the cost of a comprehensive landscape plan (capital plan). The $694.74 increase was made up of two parts. One, an increase of $365.70 per year for maintenance; and two, an increase of $329.04 per year for capital. The three -year capital plan included 1) Bus Stop and Open Area Across Street on Fox Hollow Drive; 2) Open Area South of 28525 Fox Hollow Drive; 3) Hayward Blvd., Fairview Drive, and Barn Rock Drive.
• In FY 2009, the rate returned to $694.52 per year, which may be increased each year by inflation

SUBJECT
Adopt a Resolution of Intention to Approve the Preliminary Engineer's Report and Levy Assessments for Fiscal Year 2025 for Maintenance District No. 1 - Storm Drainage Pumping Station and Storm Drain Conduit Located at Pacheco Way, Stratford Road and Ruus Lane, and Set June 25, 2024, as the Public Hearing Date

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) to preliminary approve the Preliminary Engineer’s Report (Attachment III) and levy assessments for Fiscal Year 2025 for Maintenance District No. 1 - Storm Drainage Pumping Station and Storm Drain Conduit located at Pacheco Way, Stratford Road, and Ruus Lane, and set June 25, 2024 as the Public Hearing date.

SUMMARY
This report is being provided, as required by the Hayward Municipal Code, to preliminarily approve the Engineer’s Report, to include the FY 2025 annual assessment and budget for Maintenance District No. 1 (MD 1).

MD 1 was formed in 1995 as a financial funding mechanism to fund the ongoing operation, maintenance, repair, and replacement of a Storm Water Lift Station (SWLS) in perpetuity. The SWLS was built by the developer as a condition of development for construction of the Stratford Village neighborhood. The SWLS is the only privately built SWLS in the City, built only to service the Stratford Village neighborhood. Following construction of the facility, the Alameda County Flood Control District (County) was asked to take over ownership and maintenance of the facility since the County operated similar facilities within the City and the County. The agreement signed by both parties calls for the City to act as an intermediary, using District funds to reimburse the County for annual expenses and supply District funds annually for a capital replacement fund.

The FY 2025 assessment charged to the 174 property owners is being recommended to be levied at the maximum amount allowed by law ($243.92), which is the same as the previous twenty years. The District’s account balance is currently negative, and staff will be analyzing options to remedy the deficit CITY OF HAYWARD Printed on 5/31/2024Page 1 of 2

account balance. The negative balance can be contributed to the following factors:

1. The District was formed without the inclusion of an annual inflation factor in its Maximum Base Assessment Rate calculation.

2. Maintenance & Operation (M&O) charges from the County are inconsistent, and in recent years have gotten larger.

3. The Countywide System Upgrade charge to this district is $503,980.

4. A Proposition 218 Election to increase the assessment in 2021 did not pass.

BACKGROUND

Annual Report Compliance

In compliance with Section 10-10.25 of the Hayward Municipal Code, an annual Engineer’s Report is required to be submitted to the Council. The report is attached (Attachment III) and includes:

1. Description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced;

2. FY 2025 recommended budget;

3. FY 2025 maximum base assessment rate;

4. FY 2025 recommended assessment rate; and

5. Map of the benefit zone (assessment diagram).

Formation

On June 6, 1995, the Council ordered the formation of MD 1 to provide for the maintenance, operation, and capital repair and replacement of storm drainage improvements. A Storm Water Lift Station (SWLS) was constructed to pump storm water run-off outside the neighborhood and into a flood control channel (Ward Creek). The drainage basin includes 29.1 acres, of which 24.7 acres are residential, 1.9 acres are for a park site, and 2.5 acres are for the collector streets of Stratford Road and Ruus Lane. Pacheco Way does not drain into this basin system nor does the industrial property to the south. The total number of lots in the drainage basin is 174. The original assessment rate did not include an annual inflation factor, which impedes the District’s ability for revenue to keep up with expenses.

Following construction of the facility, the Alameda County Flood Control District (County) was asked to take over ownership and maintenance of the facility since the County operated similar facilities within the City and the County. The agreement signed by both parties calls for the City to act as an intermediary, using District funds to reimburse the County for annual expenses and supplying annual District funds to be deposited into a capital replacement fund. The storm water pumping facility includes a masonry building that houses the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System, generator, and four pumps.

Static, Unchangeable Maximum Base Assessment Rate
As part of any district formation, a base annual M&O budget is established, along with a capital replacement estimate. These figures form the basis for the Maximum Base Assessment (MBA) rate, which is the maximum charge that a parcel can be assessed annually. As costs generally increase over time by inflation, many district MBAs include an annual inflation factor in the original calculation so that the assessment revenue can keep up with increases in expenses. In the case of

Page 3 of 5 ends

this district, an inflation adjustment factor was not included in the original calculation; therefore, the MBA cannot be increased without holding a successful Proposition 218 ballot election.

Countywide System Upgrade
In 2018, the County notified the City of its Countywide System Upgrade Project. Stratford Village’s SWLS cost for this upgrade now totals $503,980. During the FY 20191, FY 20202, and FY 20213 annual reports, staff advised the Council of the proposed County charges as the estimates were provided to the City. Since the last report, the County has informed the City of another $42,281 consultant bill.

Failed Proposition 218 Election
On May 4, 2021, the Council initiated a Proposition 218 election, with results tallied on June 22, 2021. The majority of the property owners who submitted ballots rejected a low-interest, long- repayment term $379,000 transfer of funds to pay for needed capital improvements, and to add an annual inflation factor to the maximum amount that can be charged annually. The measure overwhelmingly failed, with 69% of ballots cast (45/65) rejecting the increased assessment and inclusion of an annual inflation factor.

DISCUSSION
This district was established 26 years ago and did not include an inflation factor adjustment for revenue so that income could keep pace with expenditures. Over the years, the district has struggled to pay for basic M&O costs and contribute to a capital reserve, as seen below.

M&O is performed by the County under contract. Over the years, charges for M&O have been inconsistent. In FY 2017 and 2018, M&O charges had increased so much that the City delayed payment for one year to have discussions with the County.

In April 2018, the County alerted the City of additional Stratford Village SWLS District costs. The County advised that they had commissioned consultants to complete a Pump Station Equipment Condition Assessment and were purchasing a new SCADA system which required design and construction consultants. The consultant studies and construction were systemwide, with the Stratford Village SWLS District’s charges totaling $503,980 as shown on the following page To date, two (2) payments have been made, which resulted in the depletion of the District’s capital reserve fund, leaving an outstanding balance of $379,770.

Remaining Unpaid Balance $220,924
(Legend: Paid, Unpaid)

For FY 2025, the District will collect a net annual amount of $41,721. For FY 2025, the District will budget $50,585 in annual expenses (which includes the County estimated M&O amount of $20,000).

This District does not currently have the funds, nor the ability to generate additional funds, to pay the outstanding Countywide System Upgrade Project costs. Staff explored various options , such as a request for a long -term payment option from the County and/or a successful Proposition 218 Election. City staff will continue to work with Alameda County Flood Control District on solutions for the long-term solvency of the District. In addition to work ing with the County, staff is considering all remedies available to ensure that district assessments can adequately fund current and future maintenance, operation, and capital repairs as designed when the District was created.

In the Fall of 2024, staff will lead a series of additional community meetings with property owners that has a focus on community education around the fiscal issues that plague MD1 and potential outcomes should no additional action be taken. These community meetings will culminate with another Prop 218 election in February 2025. To ensure the long - term fiscal and operational stability of the District, the City will consider other options, up to and including the possibility of dissolution of the District, if the Prop 218 election is unsuccessful.

FISCAL IMPACT
Staff has evaluated the District’s operating balance and confirms that the account is currently operating at a minimal balance. To address this issue, staff will lead a series of community meetings with property owners in Fall 2024. A Prop 218 election will occur in February 2025.

PUBLIC CONTACT

City staff: 1) mailed a postcard notice to property owners to let them know of the recommended FY 2025 assessment rate, and to alert them to three Public meetings where they could provide input (May 29, June 4, and June 25); 2) held a virtual community meeting via Zoom on May 29; and 3) will publish a legal notice in the East Bay Times on or before June 14, 2024.

NEXT STEPS

Following this Council meeting, the City of Hayward is proposing to hold a public hearing on June 25, 2024, to provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. After the public hearing, the Council may adopt a resolution setting the annual assessment amount as originally proposed or as modified.

Following the adoption of this resolution, the final assessor’s roll will be prepared and filed with the Alameda County Auditor’s Office to be included on the FY 2025 tax roll. Payment of the assessment for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for property taxes. All revenue collected through the assessment must be placed in a special account and can only be used for the purposes stated within this report.

If the City Council adopts the attached resolution of intention, it will hold a noticed public hearing on June 25, 2024, to consider approving the Engineer’s Report and order the levy of assessments for FY 2025.

Introduction
Overview
On January 5, 1993, by Resolution No. 93 -010, the City Council approved the vesting tentative map of Tract 6472, which authorized the subdivision of land on both sides of Stratford Road into 148 single-family home lots. Conditions of approval for Tentative Map Tract 6472, which included Final Tract Maps 6472, 6560, 6682 and 6683, included provisions for storm drainage improvements and construction of an approved stormwater pumping facility. The drainage area and the stormwater pumping facility were analyzed in documents prepared by Wilsey & Ham, Civil Engineers. These documents indicated the following: the drainage basin includes 29.1 acres, of which 24.7 acres are residential, 1.9 acres are for a park site, and 2.5 acres are for the collector streets associ ated with Stratford Road and Ruus Lane. Pacheco Way does not drain into this drainage basin system nor does the industrial property to the south.

In addition to the 143 lots identified above, final Tract Map 6682, with a total of 31 lots located immediately to the east of Chutney Road, was also approved. Therefore, the total number of residential lots in the drainage basin is 174. In addition to the residential lots, there is a park located on one parcel of land.

On April 18, 1995, the City Council approve the preliminary Engineer’s report, and on May 23, 1995, a public meeting was held to allow affected property owners an opportunity to speak. On June 6, 1995, by Resolution No. 95 -103, the City Council ordered th e formation of Maintenance District No. 1 to provide for the operation and maintenance of the storm drainage improvements and the stormwater pumping facility to serve the drainage basin. The FY 1996 Engineer’s Report (formation report) included a FY 1996 Engineer’s Cost Estimate of $42,686.37.

A Storm Water Lift Station (SWLS) was constructed to pump storm water run-off for the developed area which is adjacent to the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District's (“Flood Control District”) Line B, Zone No. 3A. The plans for the lift station were approved by the City and the Flood Control District. The SWLS was designed with capacity for only the development of the area encompassing the 174 parcels. No added capacity was constructed for run -off from other areas such as the Georgian Manor and Spanish Ranch Mobile Home Parks, which are presently served by a privately owned and operated pumping facility located within each park.

City of Hayward
Maintenance District No. 1
Engineer’s Report FY 2025

Page 2 ends

An agreement between the City and the Flood Control District transferred ownership of the SWLS to the Flood Control District. The agreement states that the Flood Control District concurred with the SWLS transfer subject to the City providing the Flood Cont rol District with the funds to operate, maintain, and provide for capital equipment replacement and for modifications that may become necessary for the optimal performance of the SWLS.

Each year the City evaluates the need to increase the annual assessment to ensure there are adequate funds to continue to provide proper operation, maintenance, and capital replacement of the storm water pumping facilities within Maintenance District No. 1. As part of this effort, no later than December 1, the Flood Control District is required to furnish the City with an itemized estimate of the cost to operate, maintain, and supplement the capital equipment replacement fund for the fiscal year commencing on the next July 1.

Should the capital equipment replacement fund be inadequate to cover unscheduled/emergency repairs, equipment replacement or modifications that are found to be necessary for the normal and safe performance of the Storm Water Lift Station (SWLS), the Flood Control District will provide the City with written notice of the need for additional funding.

Currently there are not sufficient funds to replace the Maintenance District No. 1 capital facilities when they reach the end of their useful lives.

Legislative Analysis
Proposition 218 Compliance
On November 5, 1996, California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act," which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 established new procedural requirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts.

Proposition 218 stated that any existing assessment imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance and operation expenses for sidewalks, streets, sewers, water, flood control, drainage systems, or vector control on or before November 6, 19 96, shall be exempt from the procedures and approval process of Proposition 218, unless the assessments are increased.

Maintenance District No. 1 imposes an assessment exclusively for flood control and drainage improvements.

Proposition 218 defines increased, when applied to an assessment, as a decision by an agency that does either of the following:
 Increases any applicable rate used to calculate the assessment.  Revises the methodology by which the assessment is calculated, if that revision results in an increased amount being levied on any person or parcel.

City of Hayward
Maintenance District No. 1
Engineer’s Report FY 2025

Page 3 ends

The formation methodology used to calculate the MBA that could be levied in any given year allows the MBA from the prior year to be increased by the prior year’s change in the Consumer Price Index. Therefore, based upon the review of the City Attorney, imp osing the assessment adjustment each year based upon the prior year’s increase in the Consumer Price Index does not require Proposition 218 proceedings.

Noticing, Public Comment, and Public Hearing
Noticing and information regarding this report were provided via the following methods: 1) a notice was mailed to all affected property owners to provide detail of their recommended FY 2025 assessment rate and to alert them to three community meetings where they could provide input (May 29, June 4, June 25); and 2) published a legal notice in the East Bay Times on or before June 14, 2024.

On June 25, 2024, the City is proposing to hold a public hearing to provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. After the public hearing, the Council may adopt a resolution setting the annual assessment amounts as originally proposed or as modified. Following the adoption of this resolution, the final assessor’s roll will be prepared and filed with the Alameda County Auditor’s Office to be included on the FY 2025 tax roll. Payment of the assessment for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for property taxes.

All funds collected through the assessment must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this report.

Plans and Specifications
Introduction
The annual Engineer’s Report includes: (1) a description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced; (2) an estimated budget, (3) the maximum base assessment rate, and (4) a listing of the proposed collection rate to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel.

Description of Improvements
The facilities, which have been constructed within the City of Hayward's Maintenance District No. 1 boundaries, and those which may be subsequently constructed, will be operated, maintained, and serviced and are generally described as follows:

The Stratford Village Storm Water Lift Station (SWLS):
 2 - 15 H.P. Pumps
 1 - 5 H.P. Pump
 1 - 3 H.P. Dewatering Pump
 1 - Generator
 1 - Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System  1 - Masonry Building to House the SCADA System and Generator The operation and servicing of these facilities include but are not limited to personnel; electrical energy; materials, including diesel fuel and oil; hazardous materials clean up; and appurtenant facilities as required to provide sufficient run-off capacity.

Maintenance means the furnishing of services and materials for the ordinary and usual operations, maintenance, and servicing of the SWLS, including repair, removal or replacement of all or part of any of the SWLS.

Fiscal Year 202 5 Estimate of Cost and Budget
Estimate of Costs
Chapter 10, Article 10, Section 10-10.25 of the Hayward Municipal Code and as supplemented by the provisions of Chapter 26 of Part 3 of Division 7 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California provides that the total cost of operation, mainte nance and servicing of the storm drainage improvements and storm water pumping station can be recovered by the District.

Incidental expenses including administration of the District, engineering fees, legal fees and all other costs associated with these improvements can also be included.

Tract No. 6472, 6560, 6682, 6683 & 6682
Formed: June 6, 1995
Resolution Number: 95-103
FY 2025
Maximum Base Assessment Rate: $243.92
Assessment Amount per Parcel: $243.92
Number of Parcels: 174
Assessment Income: $42,442.08

The following is an overview of the FY 2025 assessment district:
 Maximum Base Assessment (MBA) Rate: is unchanged from the original amount of $243.92 per parcel, set when the District was created.

 Annual CPI increase: the maximum base assessment amount cannot be increased annually based upon the prior year’s change in the CPI.

 Assessment revenue: the FY 2025 amount needed to operate and maintain the facilities and contribute to the capital reserve is: $42,442.08.

 Annual assessment charge: each of the 174 parcels shall be apportioned an equal share of the total assessment for this zone as the special benefit derived by the individual parcels is indistinguishable from each other. The FY 2025 per parcel charge will remain the same as the FY 2024 amount of $243.92 per parcel. This amount is at the maximum base assessment and is sufficient for maintaining levels of service and for keeping a reserve balance.

 Proposition 218: Future increases in the assessment amount above the MBA amount would require the noticing and balloting of property owners per the requirements of Proposition 218.

Alameda County Maintenance Contract, Facility Evaluation, & SCADA Upgrade In 2018, the County informed the City of the study, the estimated costs, and the need to repair and replace the infrastructure. The total proposed cost estimate from Alameda County was presented to the City in 2020, totaled $461,699. To date, $87,597 of th at amount has been paid to the County, depleting the District’s capital reserve account. An additional payment of $36,613 was made in FY 2021 to cover the second consultant fee. In February 2021, the County presented a third consultant invoice to the City for $42,281, increasing the total project cost to $503,980.

To complete the recommended project scope, an outstanding amount of $379,770 is required. To fund this outstanding amount, a Proposition 218 assessment balloting was conducted to propose an increase to the annual assessment and adding an annual cost-of-living adjustment mechanism to upgrade and restore this neighborhood’s flood control infrastructure to the condition, efficiency, reliability, and effectiveness that was originally intended.

On June 22, 2021, the City Council conducted a public hearing to tabulate property owner ballots regarding formation and levying of assessments for the Stratford Village Flood Control Facilities Improvement Assessment District (MD1 -2021). The tabulation r esulted in a majority protest in opposition to the proposed assessment; therefore, the assessment was not imposed. As a result, the District remains underfunded and the needed capital improvements will not be made at this time. City staff will continue to work with Alameda County Flood Control District on solutions for the long-term solvency of the District. In addition to working with the County, staff is considering all remedies available to ensure that district assessments can adequately fund current and future maintenance, operation and capital repairs as was designed when the D istrict was created. As part of this work, staff will lead a series of additional community meetings with a focus on community education that culminates with another Prop 218 elec tion. To ensure the long-term fiscal and operational stability of the District, the City will consider other options, up to and including dissolution, if the election is unsuccessful.

Method of Apportionment
Chapter 10, Article 10, Section 10-10.25 of the Hayward Municipal Code and as supplemented by the provisions of Chapter 26 of Part 3 of Division 7 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies to finance the maintenance and operation of drainage and flood control services, which include the operation, maintenance, and servicing of pump stations.

Proposition 218 requires that maintenance assessments must be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportion al special benefit conferred on the property.

Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are not considered a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution.

Article XIIID of the California Constitution provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements, and rights-of-ways.

The land uses within Maintenance District No. 1 consist of 174 residential parcels and one park parcel. These parcels receive a special benefit in that the pumping station and the storm drains protect the residential parcels and park parcel from storm water flooding. Even though there are only minor structures located on the park parcel it does receive special benefit from flood control improvements and services.

It is estimated that all residential and park parcels derive similar benefits from the flood control improvements and services, therefore the method for spreading the annual costs is on a per parcel basis.

The projected Fiscal Year 202 5 maintenance and operation are estimated to be $ 50,585. The expense does not include the deposit of funds into a capital replacement fund. The collection rate for Fiscal Year 2025 will be at the maximum assessment rate of $243.92 per parcel.

RECOMMENDATION

That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) of intention to approve the Preliminary Engineer's Report (Attachment III), levy assessments for FY 2025, and set June 25, 2024 as the public hearing date.

SUMMARY

Maintenance District No. 2 (MD 2) was formed in 2003 to fund the ongoing operation, maintenance, administration, and capital replacement of the water buffer and storm water facilities that border the Eden Shores residential community. This annual report is being provided, as required by the Hayward Municipal Code, to approve the annual assessment rate and expenditure budget.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION

On June 24, 2003, the Council ordered the formation of MD 2 to provide for the maintenance, operation, administration, and capital replacement of a water buffer and storm water pre-treatment facility. The water buffer consists of landscaping, recirculating pumps and filters, maintenance roads, pedestrian bridge, and anti-predator and perimeter fencing. The Eden Shores Maintenance District includes three residential tracts (7317, 7360, 7361) totaling 534 homes. The funds collected from the property owners within MD 2 pay for the ongoing annual operation, maintenance, administration, and capital contribution to operate and maintain this important infrastructure.

Capital funds are collected and maintained so that the district has the financial resources available to utilize to repair or replace sections of fencing, pumps, or bridge components in the future.

In compliance with Section 10-10.25 of the Hayward Municipal Code, an annual Engineer’s Report is required to be submitted to the Council. The report is attached (Attachment III), and includes:
(1) Description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, serviced, and replaced;
