Engineer’s Report, FY 2026
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 District 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”) 2026 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 6. 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 2026.
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."

City of Hayward
LLAD No. 96-1
Engineer’s Report, FY 2026
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 6 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 2026 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 2026 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 4 to February 202 5 was 2.89%; therefore, a 2.89% increase was applied to the FY 2026 Maximum Base Assessment Rate for zones 3, 7-13, 17-18.

LLAD No. 96-1
Engineer’s Report, FY 2026
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 2023 to December 2024 was 2.38% and the unused CPI from previous years is
3.15%; 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 6 assessment rate and to alert them to three public meetings where they could provide input (May 28, June 3, June 24), and published a legal notice in the East Bay Times on or before June 13, 2025.
On June 24, 2025, 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 2026 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.

FY 2026 Assessment and Income
FY 2026 Services
Services provided to this assessment zone include:
• Landscaping and irrigation: Including an 8-foot-wide landscaped strip along Huntwood Ave. within a landscape easement; and
• Surface maintenance of the street side: Including a 600 -foot masonry wall along Huntwood Ave. The maintenance includes painting, cleaning, graffiti removal, and minor surface repair.
• One-time maintenance: A budget of $3,500 is allocated for additional maintenance, as required.
Note: the ownership and responsibility of the masonry wall as a structure remains with the individual property owners.
Assessment Rate (annual charge per parcel) and Income
• The per parcel charge will increase from the previous year from $235.94 to $247.73.
• The total annual assessment income will equal $7,432.
• The recommended assessment rate will generate revenues that are adequate to pay for the expected level of maintenance and to maintain a prudent capital reserve balance.
• Each of the parcels shall be apportioned an equal share of the total assessment for this zone as the special benefit derived by an individual parcel is indistinguishable from each other.
• The current assessment rate is below the Maximum Base Assessment and is sufficient for maintaining levels of service and for keeping a prudent capital reserve balance.
• In future years, if there is a need for additional funds, the assessment may be increased up to the Maximum Base Assessment Rate.

Services for this assessment zone include:
Minor Portion of Sports Park: The City of Hayward has an agreement with the Hayward Area Recreation and Park District (HARD) to maintain the Alden E. Oliver Sports Park which benefits parcels within this benefit zone. The annual assessment pays for a minor portion of the Sports Park maintenance expense and City administrative costs associated with managing the benefit assessment program for this benefit zone.
