Subject: Amending the Joint Powers Agreement with Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority (CSJVRMA)
Enclosures: Memorandum from CSJVRMA Outlining the Amendments Redline Version of the Joint Powers Agreement
Final Version of the Joint Powers Agreement
Presented By: Ashton Gose, Executive Assistant/City Clerk Approved By: __________________________
City Manager
Recommended Council Action:
Adopt Resolution No. 2025-21, approving the Amended the Joint Powers Agreement with Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority (CSJVRMA).
Background and Overview:
CSJVRMA staff and Legal Counsel, Mr. John Lavra, in conjunction with the CSJVRMA Administration and Financial Services Subcommittee, who make recommendations to the Executive Committee, conducted a full review of the CSJVRMA governing documents to ensure they continue to reflect CSJVRMA’s current practices, legal requirements, and operational needs.
Amendments to the Joint Powers Agreement require a written resolution approved and signed by two-thirds (2/3rds) of the respective city councils of the member cities. Upon signature by two-thirds (2/3rds) of the member cities, any member city failing or refusing to abide by such amendments may be involuntarily terminated as a party to the Agreement.
Although the Joint Powers Agreement, even as last amended in 1994, meets the legal requirements as set forth in the government code for Joint Powers Authorities, the document has been updated as follows:
• Definitional terms have been defined more clearly.
• Language has been broadened to give leeway in the event the CSJVRMA wants to consider creating or participating in a captive agency.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.3
SECTION 3: CONSENT CALENDAR
22 • An addition was made pursuant to Government Code Section 6509 that was not part of the law in 1994 when CSJVRMA last amended the Agreement. The change requires JPAs to designate a member whose restrictions would apply to the operations of the JPA.
Below is an excerpt from correspondence from Mr. Lavra:
“This code section was enacted to prevent a local public entity from exercising powers inconsistent with its own charter, ordinance or resolution simply by becoming a member of a JPA. JPA's are formed to permit public entities to exercise powers on a collective basis, which they could, absent the JPA, exercise individually. However, the legislature wanted to place some restriction on the power of the JPA, without that JPA having to comply with all restrictions that might be in place for all of the members of the JPA. It would be unworkable, for instance, if the JPA had to satisfy or verify any and all restrictions from the ordinances of all of the members of the JPA when transacting the business of the JPA. In order to strike a balance, section 6509 permits the JPA to agree to any restrictions in its exercise of powers based on the restrictions of one identified member city.” • The City of Ripon has been added to the Agreement as the designated city under Government Code Section 6509 with City of Madera listed as a secondary city in the event the City of Ripon were to terminate its membership. These two cities have no restrictions in place that would conflict with the day-to-day operations of the JPA.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.

SUBJECT: AMENDED AND RESTATED CSJVRMA JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT –
ACTION REQUIRED
The Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority’s (CSJVRMA) staff and CSJVRMA Legal Counsel, Mr. John Lavra, in conjunction with the CSJVRMA Administration and Financial Services Subcommittee, who will make recommendations to the Executive Committee, are conducting a full review of the CSJVRMA governing documents to ensure they continue to reflect the CSJVRMA’s current practices, legal requirements, and operational needs.
Pursuant to action by the Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority’s (CSJVRMA) Executive Committee on June 26, 2025, we are forwarding to you an Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement for presentation and approval by your city’s city council at their earliest opportunity.
Amendments to the Joint Powers Agreement require a written resolution approved and signed by two-thirds (2/3rds) of the respective city councils of the member cities. Upon signature by twothirds (2/3rds) of the member cities, any member city failing or refusing to abide by such amendments may be involuntarily terminated as a party to the Agreement.
Mr. Lavra advised the Executive Committee that although the Joint Powers Agreement, even as last amended in 1994, meets the legal requirements as set forth in the government code for Joint Powers Authorities, the document has been updated as follows:
Definitional terms have been defined more clearly.
Language has been broadened to give leeway in the event the CSJVRMA wants to consider creating or participating in a captive agency. An addition was made pursuant to Government Code Section 6509 that was not part of the law in 1994 when CSJVRMA last amended the Agreement. The change requires JPAs to designate a member whose restrictions would apply to the operations of the JPA. Below is an excerpt from correspondence from Mr. Lavra:
“This code section was enacted to prevent a local public entity from exercising powers inconsistent with its own charter, ordinance or resolution simply by becoming a member of a JPA. JPA's are formed to permit public entities to exercise powers on a collective basis, which they could, absent the JPA, exercise individually. However, the legislature wanted to place some restriction on the power of the JPA, without that JPA having to comply with all restrictions that might be in place for all of the members of the JPA. It would be unworkable, for instance, if the JPA had to satisfy or verify any and all 24 CSJVRMA Member City Councils
July 14, 2025
restrictions from the ordinances of all of the members of the JPA when transacting the business of the JPA. In order to strike a balance, section 6509 permits the JPA to agree to any restrictions in its exercise of powers based on the restrictions of one identified member city.”
The City of Ripon has been added to the Agreement as the designated city under Government Code Section 6509 with City of Madera listed as a secondary city in the event the City of Ripon were to terminate its membership. These two cities have no restrictions in place that would conflict with the day-to-day operations of the JPA.
To assist you in presenting this information to your city council for approval, a redline version of the Joint Powers Agreement is attached. Also attached are the following:
A proposed new Joint Powers Agreement to be executed upon approval by your city council.
A sample resolution that can be used to document the action taken by your city council in approving the Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement. This document is also being provided in a Word format to allow you to modify as appropriate for adoption by your council when approving the Amended and Restated Joint Powers Agreement.
Upon approval of the new Joint Powers Agreement by your city council, the final document needs to be executed by your City Manager/Administrator or an authorized individual from your city. Please forward an original, signed copy of the new Joint Powers Agreement, along with a copy of the adopted and fully executed council resolution, to Samantha Zellmer, CSJVRMA Board Secretary, at the following address:

TO: Mayors, Council Members, City Clerks, and City Managers RE: DESIGNATION OF VOTING DELEGATES AND ALTERNATES
League of California Cities Annual Conference and Expo, Oct. 8-10, 2025 Long Beach Convention Center
Every year, the League of California Cities convenes a member-driven General Assembly at the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo. The General Assembly is an important opportunity where city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy.
Taking place on Oct. 10, the General Assembly is comprised of voting delegates appointed by each member city; every city has one voting delegate. Your appointed voting delegate plays an important role during the General Assembly by representing your city and voting on resolutions.
To cast a vote during the General Assembly, your city must designate a voting delegate and up to two alternate voting delegates, one of whom may vote if the designated voting delegate is unable to serve in that capacity. Voting delegates may either be an elected or appointed official.
Action by Council Required. Consistent with Cal Cities bylaws, a city’s voting delegate and up to two alternates must be designated by the city council. Please note that designating the voting delegate and alternates must be done by city council action and cannot be accomplished by individual action of the mayor or city manager alone.
Following council action, please submit your city’s delegates through the online submission portal by Wed., Sept. 24. When completing the Voting Delegate submission form, you will be asked to attest that council action was taken. You will need to be signed in to your My Cal Cities account when submitting the form.
Submitting your voting delegate form by the deadline will allow us time to establish voting delegate/alternate records prior to the conference and provide pre-conference communications with voting delegates.
Conference Registration Required. The voting delegate and alternates must be registered to attend the conference. They need not register for the entire conference; they may register for Friday only. Conference registration is open on the Cal Cities website.
Council Action Advised by September 24, 2025
65 For a city to cast a vote, one voter must be present at the General Assembly and in possession of the voting delegate card and voting tool. Voting delegates and alternates need to pick up their conference badges before signing in and picking up the voting delegate card at the voting delegate desk. This will enable them to receive the special sticker on their name badges that will admit the voting delegate into the voting area during the General Assembly.
Please view Cal Cities’ event and meeting policy in advance of the conference.
Transferring Voting Card to Non-Designated Individuals Not Allowed. The voting delegate card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates, but only between the voting delegate and alternates. If the voting delegate and alternates find themselves unable to attend the General Assembly, they may not transfer the voting card to another city official.
Seating Protocol during General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.
The voting delegate desk, located in the conference registration area of the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, will be open at the following times: Wednesday, Oct. 16, 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. and Thursday, Oct. 17, 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. On Friday, Oct. 18, the voting delegate desk will be open at the General Assembly, starting at 7:30 a.m., but will be closed during roll calls and voting.
The voting procedures that will be used at the conference are attached to this memo.
Please share these procedures and this memo with your council and especially with the individuals that your council designates as your city’s voting delegate and alternates.
Once again, thank you for submitting your voting delegate and alternates by Wednesday, Sept. 24. If you have questions, please contact Zach Seals at [email protected].

67 Sixty days before the
Annual Conference
and Expo, Cal Cities
members may submit
policy proposals on
issues of importance
to cities. The resolution must
have the concurrence of at least
five additional member cities or
individual members.
How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure Cal Cities represents cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities’ advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policies that erode local control.
The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how resolutions and the General Assembly work.
The petitioned
resolution is an
alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during
the annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of
member cities, and submitted to
the Cal Cities President at least
24 hours before the beginning
of the General Assembly.
Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities
President assigns
general resolutions
to policy committees
where members
review, debate, and recommend
positions for each policy proposal.
Recommendations are forwarded
to the Resolutions Committee.
Who’s who
The Resolutions Committee
includes representatives
from each Cal Cities
diversity caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, and policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.
Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.
The General Assembly is a
meeting of the collective
body of all voting
delegates —one from
every member city.
Seven policy committees
meet throughout the year
to review and recommend
positions to take on bills
and regulatory proposals.
Policy committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division, and
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.
During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions
Committee. Potential Cal Cities bylaws
amendments are also considered at this meeting.
Cal Cities policy
development is a memberinformed process,
grounded in the voices and
experiences of city officials
throughout the state.
For more information visit www.calcities.org/general-assembly Prior to the Annual Conference and Expo
Resolutions Committee
The Resolutions
Committee considers
all resolutions. General
Resolutions approved1 by
either a policy committee
or the Resolutions Committee are next
considered by the General Assembly.
General resolutions not approved, or
referred for further study by both a
policy committee and the Resolutions
Committee do not go to the General
Assembly. All Petitioned Resolutions
are considered by the General
Assembly, unless disqualified.2
During the Annual Conference and Expo

Subject: Establishing the Annual Special Tax for the City of Hughson, Province Place Community Facilities District, 2017 for Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and Establishing the Annual Special Tax for the City of Hughson Community Facilities District (Parkwood), for Fiscal Year 2025-2026
Presented By: Dominique Romo, City Manager
Approved By:
_________________________
Recommended Council Action:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-22, Establishing the Annual Special Tax for the City of Hughson, Province Place Community Facilities District, 2017 for Fiscal Year 2025-26;
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-23, Establishing the Annual Special Tax for the City of Hughson Community Facilities District (Parkwood), for Fiscal Year 2025-2026; and
3. Direct the Harris & Associates Assessment Engineer to file, or cause to be filed, certified copies of said Resolutions and the reports with the Stanislaus County Tax Collector.
Background and Overview:
The City of Hughson utilizes special financing districts to fund essential services and improvements that directly benefit property owners within the City. These districts include Landscaping and Lighting Districts (LLDs), Benefit Assessment Districts (BADs), and Community Facilities District (CFD).
In partnership with Harris & Associates, City staff conducts an annual review of each district to evaluate anticipated maintenance and service costs for the upcoming fiscal year, establish parcel-specific assessments, determine the assessment amounts to be levied via the County property tax roll (pending City Council approval). For each district, staff typically reviews prior year budgets, current fund balances, anticipated expenditures, and allowable assessment amounts. Necessary adjustments are then incorporated, particularly for the CFD, to ensure financial sustainability and service continuity.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.5
SECTION 3: CONSENT CALENDAR
69 The proposed assessments and levies are based on historical and estimated costs of providing services and the direct and special benefit provided to properties within each district. Upon City Council approval of the levy and assessment collection, the finalized assessment data will be submitted to the County Auditor-Controller in mid-August, and the assessments will be included on the Fiscal Year 2025–26 Tax Roll for each benefiting parcel.
Establishing the Annual Special Taxes and directing their filing with the County Tax Collector for this fiscal year directly supports the Hughson City Council’s adopted values of:
Fiscal Responsibility
Customer Focus
Results Orientation
It also advances the Council’s Strategic Priorities, including:
Good Governance
Infrastructure Investment
Ensuring Fiscal Health
Promoting Quality of Life
These actions enable the City to collect the necessary funds to maintain essential public services including street maintenance and repairs (curbs, gutters, sidewalks and ramps) utilities infrastructure, parks, streetlights (maintenance and electrical/utility costs), storm drain facilities (manhole covers, catch basins, pipes, drains, and treatment of storm water run-off), landscaping, and police, fire and emergency services. Securing these revenues preserves a balanced and sustainable budget, ensures efficient and priority services are delivered, and enhances the overall quality of life for Hughson residents.
Annual Inflationary Adjustment:
Each year, the February Consumer Price Index (CPI) is used to determine the Maximum Assessment Rate for the City’s special districts. For Fiscal Year 2025–26, the February CPI was 2.7% (rounded). Annual increases to the assessment rate are indexed to the CPI plus 3%, based on data from the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics for the San Francisco/Oakland/San José Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers. This formula establishes a new inflation-adjusted maximum assessment rate that may be levied without requiring a Proposition 218 ballot proceeding. While the maximum rate typically increases each year, the actual assessment levied is based on the district’s annual budget. The levied amount may be less than the maximum, depending on service needs, fund balances, and fiscal strategy.
Fiscal Impact:
For Fiscal Year 2025-26, the Province Place annual assessments are set at $697.68 per parcel with an estimated total amount of $27,209.52 to be collected. 70 For Fiscal Year 2025-26, the Parkwood annual assessments are set at $845.82 per parcel with a current estimated total amount of $119,260.62 to be collected. Any additional parcels issued with a building permit prior to July 1, 2025, will be included with the special taxes submitted to the County in August.
The total cost for Professional Services provided by Harris & Associates is budgeted at $18,303 for Fiscal Year 2025-26, which includes technical support, report preparation, and assistance with assessment administration for all assessment districts, including the BADs, LLDs, and CFDs.

82 Meeting Date: July 28, 2025
Subject: Confirming Diagrams, Assessments and Reports and Levying Assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26 for All Landscape and Lighting Districts (LLDs) and All Benefit Assessment Districts (BADs) within the City of Hughson
Enclosures: FY 2025-26 Engineer’s Report LLDs
FY 2025-26 Engineer’s Report BADs
Presented By: Dominique Romo, City Manager
Kim Weimer, Director of Finance and Administrative Services Approved By: ____________________________

Recommended Council Action:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-24, confirming diagrams, assessments and reports and levying assessments for Fiscal Year 2025-26, for all Landscape and Lighting Districts and all Benefit Assessment Districts within the City of Hughson; and
2. Direct Harris & Associates Assessment Engineer to file, or cause to be filed, a certified copy of said Resolutions and the report for each Assessment District with the Stanislaus County Tax Collector.
Background and Overview:
The City of Hughson utilizes special financing districts to provide various services and improvements to property owners within the City. The three different types of assessment districts are Landscaping and Lighting Districts (LLD), Benefit Assessment Districts (BAD), and one Community Facility District (CFD). This item addresses the actions needed on the City’s BADs and LLDs only.
Each LLD is formed, and the annual assessments are levied, pursuant to the Lighting and Landscaping Act of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (the 1972 Act). The BADs are formed, and annual assessments are levied, pursuant to the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 (the 1982 Act), Part 1 of Division 2 of the California CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 5.1
SECTION 5: PUBLIC HEARING
83 Government Code. The Community Facilities District was formed, and the annual assessment is levied, pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, Part 1 of Division 2 of the 2014 California Government Code (the Act).
The City of Hughson worked with Harris & Associates staff on the administration of the City’s 22 assessment districts: Fifteen (15) LLDs, and Seven (7) BADs (CFDs not included).
Each year staff reviews the anticipated costs of maintaining each district for the next fiscal year, establishes assessments attributable to each parcel, and requires a specific assessment amount to be levied through the County property tax roll upon Council approval. An annual Engineer’s Benefit Assessment (Report) for each district is then prepared – describing/reviewing the individual districts, incorporating any changes to the district and proposed assessments, and identifying the proposed levies for the upcoming fiscal year. The proposed assessments and levies are based on both the historical and estimated costs of providing services to maintain the improvements that provide a direct and special benefit to properties within each respective district. The costs of the improvements and the annual levies include expenditures, deficits, surpluses, revenues, and reserves. In most districts, parcels are assessed proportionately for the special benefit provided by the district.
Following final approval of the Engineer’s Reports and confirmation of the assessments, the City Council may order the levy and the collection of the assessments for the 2025-26 Fiscal Year pursuant to the 1972 and 1982 Acts. Once the Council approves the levy and the collection of the assessments, the information will be submitted to the County AuditorController in August, to be included on the Tax Roll for each benefiting parcel for Fiscal Year 2025-26.
Adopting the Assessments and Reports, Levying Assessments, and Establishing the Annual Special Tax for this fiscal year for the Landscaping and Lighting Districts (LLDs) and Benefit Assessment Districts (BADs) directly supports the Hughson City Council’s adopted values of:
Fiscal Responsibility
Customer Focus
Results Orientation
It also advances the Council’s Strategic Priorities, including:
Good Governance
Infrastructure Investment
Ensuring Fiscal Health
Promoting Quality of Life
These actions enable the City to collect the necessary funds to maintain essential public infrastructure such as streets, sidewalks, lighting, parks, storm drainage systems, and landscaping; as well as acquiring and maintaining equipment needed for operations and maintenance in these districts. Securing these revenues preserves a balanced and sustainable budget, ensures efficient services are delivered, and enhances the overall quality of life for Hughson residents.
84 The proposed budgets for each assessment district, along with the attached Engineering Reports, provide detailed financial information for Fiscal Year 2025–26. These budgets are based on a review of the original formation documents, validation of assessment rate history, and actual costs incurred in prior years. In collaboration with Harris & Associates, City staff conducted a thorough evaluation and determined that limiting changes to current district budgets was appropriate due to fiscal necessity. The process included reviewing prior year budget items, assessing current fund balances, evaluating allowable assessment amounts, and making targeted adjustments where necessary. As done in previous years, City staff focused on, minimizing administrative costs where possible, proposing infrastructure improvements in districts with no structural deficits, and healthy reserve balances. This approach ensures responsible financial stewardship while continuing to support infrastructure needs and maintain service levels across all districts.
In an overview of the Engineer’s Reports, Exhibit A – Landscaping and Lighting Districts (LLDs) - contains the Engineer’s Report for each LLD. The generally authorized improvements and services within these districts include maintenance of landscaping and irrigation systems, street tree maintenance, removal, and replacement graffiti removal, and street lighting energy costs. These services help ensure safe, attractive, and well-lit public spaces throughout the community. Exhibit B – Benefit Assessment Districts (BADs) - contains the Engineer’s Report for each BAD. The generally authorized improvements and services within these districts include Drainage infrastructure maintenance, retention basin maintenance, street sweeping, cleaning, and repairs, sidewalk maintenance, and graffiti abatement. These services support clean, functional, and well-maintained public infrastructure, contributing to neighborhood quality and safety.
Proposition 218 Assessment Rate Adjustment Plan:
In past years, City staff proposed initiating a Proposition 218 Assessment Rate Increase Election to address underfunded districts and districts lacking annual inflationary adjustments; However, due to various reasons, staff chose to postpone the proposal out of consideration for residents. City staff now plans to pursue the Proposition 218 process in Fiscal Year 2025–26 for specific districts with fiscal challenges. The goals of this process include implementing an annual assessment rate escalator for districts that currently lack one and increasing assessment rates to address the negative fund balances. Several assessment districts continue to project and carry negative fund balances into the next fiscal years, with their current reserves being insufficient to cover future costs, presenting a potential serious challenge in maintaining service levels needed.
If proposed assessment rate increases are not approved through the Proposition 218 process significant reductions in service levels may be necessary in affected districts.
Services such as landscaping, lighting, street maintenance, and graffiti abatement may need to be scaled back or deferred, as the City may need to take protective measures to avoid shifting these costs to the General Fund, which could impact citywide services and priorities. Maintaining the integrity of the General Fund is essential in supporting core city services, preserving financial flexibility, and avoiding unintended trade-offs in other areas of the budget.
85 If approved by voters, the Proposition 218 process will help to restore financial stability in affected districts, ensure long-term sustainability of services and infrastructure and align assessment rates with actual service costs and inflation. Currently, six (6) districts lack an annual escalator and four (4) carry significant negative fund balances.
Santa Fe Estates I LLD -119,074.89
Santa Fe Estates II LLD -78,993.80
Brittany Woods LLD -$11,969.23
Fontana Ranch South LLD -$11,650.78
Walnut Haven III LLD -7,222.26
Fontana Ranch South BAD -2,005.61
Annual Inflationary Adjustment:
Each year, the February Consumer Price Index (CPI) is used to determine the Maximum Assessment Rate for the City’s special districts. For Fiscal Year 2025–26, the February CPI was 2.7% (rounded). Annual increases to the assessment rate are indexed to the CPI plus 3%, based on data from the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics for the San Francisco/Oakland/San José Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers. This formula establishes a new inflation-adjusted maximum assessment rate that may be levied without requiring a Proposition 218 ballot proceeding. While the maximum rate typically increases each year, the actual assessment levied is based on the district’s annual budget. The levied amount may be less than the maximum, depending on service needs, fund balances, and fiscal strategy.
Public Participation:
Public participation is provided in accordance with Proposition 218 for the tax levy of Benefit Assessment Districts (BADs) and Landscape and Lighting Assessment Districts (LLDs).This action does not involve changes that require a Proposition 218 ballot proceeding, therefore no affirming ballot process is necessary currently.
The scheduled Public Hearing offers impacted property owners the opportunity to review proposed assessment changes, provide comments or concerns, and address the City Council directly. This ensures transparency and gives residents a formal platform to engage in the decision-making process regarding their district assessments. The Public Hearing Notice was published in the Hughson Chronicle on July 8, 2025.
Fiscal Impact:
The Landscaping and Lighting Districts (LLDs) and Benefit Assessment Districts (BADs) provide annual funding to support specific services and improvements for properties within their approved boundaries in the City of Hughson. For Fiscal Year 2025–26, annual assessments are expected to generate approximately $351,693 in total revenue to support labor and administration, utilities and equipment, materials and supplies, and the preparation and completions of the annual Engineer’s Reports. 86 The total cost for Professional Services provided by Harris & Associates is budgeted at $18,303 for Fiscal Year 2025–26, which includes technical support, report preparation, and assistance with assessment administration for all assessment districts, including the BADs, LLDs, and CFDs.

18 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment
The 1982 Act allows for the establishment of assessment districts, by public agencies, for the purpose of providing certain public improvements as detailed in Section I of this Report. The 1982 Act also complies with the California Constitution which requires the cost of these improvements and services to be assessed based on benefit received rather than by assessed value of the properties being assessed. In accordance with Article XIII D, Section 4 of the California Constitution:
“An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of the public improvement or the cost of the property related service being provided. No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Only special benefits are assessable…”
The method of apportionment described in this Report, and confirmed by the City Council, utilizes commonly accepted engineering practices which have been established pursuant to the 1982 Act and the California Constitution for the allocation of special benefit assessments. The calculation of assessments is based upon the parcel type and the services and improvements provided to equitably apportion the costs based on the special benefit received by each lot or parcel.
The special benefit received by each lot or parcel is over and above any general benefit conferred upon said lots or parcels or to the public at large.
DESCRIPTION OF BENEFIT
Special Benefit
The improvements and associated costs have been carefully allocated to the assessable properties within the District based on the special benefit received by those properties, pursuant to the provisions of the California Constitution. The improvements for which the properties will be assessed have been identified as necessary, were required as a part of the development plans specifically for the tract and are also in compliance with the development plans and General Plan of the City. As such, the improvements and continuing maintenance and servicing are strictly the obligation of the properties within the District.
Definition of Special Benefit
The method of apportionment described in this Report is based on the premise that each assessable lot or parcel receives distinct and special benefits from the improvements and services provided, including the visual desirability provided by well-maintained landscaping. In accordance with Article XIII D, Section 4 of the California Constitution:
“Special benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or the public at large” 105
Engineer’s Report
Benefit Assessment Districts
City of Hughson
Fiscal Year 2025-26
19 Some of the special benefits associated with local landscaping and lighting improvements are:
• Enhanced desirability of properties due to existence of the improvements and the services provided by the District.
• Improved aesthetic appeal provided by a positive representation of the development, neighborhood and the community.
• Improved ingress and egress to property resulting in enhanced traffic flow, reduced traffic accidents and possible property damage.
ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA
It is generally recognized that most budgetary items will be impacted by inflation in future years. In accordance with the California Constitution, Section 53739 (b)(1), assessments “may be adjusted for inflation pursuant to a clearly defined formula…” A formula for an inflationary adjustment is therefore included as part of the maximum assessment within the Districts that allow for such, and was approved by the property owner(s) at the time of formation/annexation. The formula, as described below, allows for annual adjustments to the assessments.
Generally, any new or increased assessment requires certain noticing and meeting requirements by law. The Brown Act excludes certain conditions of a new or increased assessment. These conditions include, “An assessment that does not exceed an assessment formula or range of assessments previously specified in the notice given to the public…and that was previously adopted by the agency…”
The initial maximum assessment for each District was established at the time of annexation into the District. That initial maximum assessment was established at that time and has been adjusted each subsequent fiscal year by the following Assessment Range Formula:
• The Maximum Assessment Rate allowed each fiscal year (the “Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate”) shall be based on the initial maximum assessment, adjusted annually by Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index for the month of February, All Urban Consumers, (“CPI”) for the San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose area, plus an escalation of 3%. Should the Bureau of Labor Statistics revise or discontinue the preparation of such index, the City reserves the right to use such revised index or a comparable system to determine fluctuations in the annual cost of living. • Each fiscal year, the February CPI amount, plus an escalation of 3%, has been applied to the Maximum Assessment Rate established the previous fiscal year to calculate the appropriate Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate for the then current fiscal year.
• If the proposed annual assessment rate for the upcoming fiscal year is less than or equal to the Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate established for that fiscal year, then the proposed annual assessment is not considered an increased assessment.
Beginning in the second fiscal year after the formation of a District, and each fiscal year since, the Maximum Assessment Rate has been recalculated and a new Maximum Assessment Rate (Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate) has been established for each fiscal year using the Assessment Range Formula described above. The Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate has been calculated independent of the annual budget and proposed assessment rate for the given fiscal year.
106
Engineer’s Report
Benefit Assessment Districts
City of Hughson
Fiscal Year 2025-26
20 As stated above, if the proposed annual assessment for any fiscal year does not exceed the Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate for that year, it is not considered an increased assessment under the terms of Proposition 218 or the Brown Act.
The CPI increase for the one-year period ending in February 2025 is 2.6890% (rounded). This amount, plus a 3% escalation, will be applied to the previous year’s Maximum Assessment Rate to establish the Adjusted Maximum Assessment for included Districts for Fiscal Year 2025–26.
Please refer to the table on page 1 of this Report, “Benefit Assessment Districts Summary”, which shows the actual and maximum allowable assessment for each District for the past two years.
This amount will be applied to the Maximum Assessment for each District, which will establish the Adjusted Maximum Assessment for each District for Fiscal Year 2025-26.
To impose a new assessment or increased assessment in excess of the Maximum Assessment Rate for the current fiscal year, as provided by the preceding Assessment Range Formula, the City must comply with the provisions of the California Constitution, Article XIII D, Section 4c that requires a public hearing and certain protest procedures including mailed notice of the public hearing and property owner protest balloting. Property owners must approve the proposed new or increased assessment via a property owner protest balloting process before any such new or increased assessment can be imposed. A protest occurs when, at the public hearing, the returned assessment ballots opposed to the new or increased assessment outweigh the returned ballots in favor of the new or increased assessment, weighting those assessment ballots by the financial obligation of each parcel.
The definition of new or increased assessments includes any assessment which, 1) did not previously exist or, 2) exceeds a previously approved assessment amount or assessment range formula. Any assessment range formula must have been previously adopted by the agency and approved by the property owners in the area where the assessment is imposed.
ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The benefit formula used to determine the financial obligation for each parcel should be based on the improvements benefitting the parcels, as well as the use, or type, of each parcel as compared to other parcels that benefit from said improvements. One of the more common approaches to fairly distributing District costs to the benefitting parcels in maintenance districts such as this utilizes a methodology referred to as the Per Parcel method of apportionment. This method recognizes that each parcel within a particular District benefits equally from the improvements. This is typical when all parcels within the District are of the same type (ex. all single-family dwellings).
Other than Central Hughson and the Sterling Glen III annexation, each District is comprised of a single parcel type – residential. The residential parcels are single-family residential parcels (“SFR”) and as such are deemed to benefit equally from the improvements. The “Total Balance to Levy”, as shown on the Budget pages, is divided equally among each assessable parcel within the District, determining the annual assessment rate per parcel for that District.
The Central Hughson District is comprised of several property types including single-family residential, commercial, agriculture and undeveloped. The costs are currently spread to those parcels based on the individual parcel size. The Sterling Glen III Annexation is comprised of five single-family residential parcels. 107

21 APPENDIX A – ASSESSMENT ROLL
Assessment Roll
Parcel Identification for each lot or parcel within the Districts shall be based on available parcel maps and other property data from the Stanislaus County Assessor’s office as they existed at the time this Report was prepared and adopted by the City Council.
A listing of parcels assessed within each District for Fiscal Year 2025-26, along with the corresponding assessment amounts, is included on the following pages. If any parcel submitted for collection is identified by the County Auditor/Controller to be an invalid parcel number for the current fiscal year, a corrected parcel number and/or new parcel numbers will be identified and resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be based on the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this Report. Therefore, if a single parcel has changed to multiple parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new parcels shall be recalculated and applied according to the approved method of apportionment and assessment rate rather than a proportionate share of the original assessment.
Non-assessable lots or parcels include areas of public streets and other roadways (typically not assigned an APN by the County); dedicated public easements, open space areas and rights-of-way, including public greenbelts and parkways; utility rights-of-way; common areas; landlocked parcels; small parcels vacated by the County, bifurcated lots and any other property that cannot be developed or has specific development restrictions. These types of parcels are considered to receive little or no benefit from the improvements and are therefore, exempted from assessment. 108

1 SUMMARY OF DISTRICT ASSESSMENTS
Summary of District Assessments
The February Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) is used to determine the Maximum Assessment Rate each year. The February CPI, plus a 3% escalation, is added to the previous year’s Maximum Rate per EDU to determine the adjusted Maximum Rate per EDU for each District for the current year. Please refer to Section II of this Report, “Assessment Range Formula”, for a complete description of the CPI and how it is calculated.
The February Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) is used to determine the Maximum Assessment Rate each year. The February CPI is added to the previous years’ Maximum Assessment Rate to determine the adjusted Maximum Assessment for Euclid North, Euclid South, Feathers Glen, Fontana Ranch North, Fontana Ranch South, Sterling Glen III, Rhapsody II and the Sterling Glen Annexation. The February 2025 CPI was 2.6890% (rounded). Please refer to Section IV of this Report, “Assessment Range Formula” for a complete description of the CPI tables used for this purpose.
The calculated Maximum Assessment for each District is shown on the individual Budget pages in Section IV of this Report.
Also, as stated in Section IV, “Assessment Range Formula”, Brittany Woods, Rhapsody Unit 1, Santa Fe Estates Phase 1, Santa Fe Estates Phase 2, Starn Estates, Sun Glow Estates and Walnut Haven III do not have an allowable inflationary adjustment and as a result, CPI is not applied to the Maximum Assessment for those Districts. 139

23 PART IV – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
Method of Apportionment
The 1972 Act allows for the establishment of assessment districts by public agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements as detailed in Section I of this Report. The 1972 Act also requires that the cost of these improvements and services be assessed based on benefit received rather than by assessed value of the properties being assessed. In accordance with the 1972 Act, Section 22573:
“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 assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements” The method of apportionment described in this Report, and confirmed by the City Council at the time of formation utilizes commonly accepted engineering practices which have been established pursuant to the 1972 Act and the California Constitution for the allocation of special benefit assessments. The calculation of assessments is based upon the parcel type and the services and improvements provided to equitably apportion the costs based on the special benefit received by each lot or parcel. The special benefit received by each lot or parcel is over and above any general benefit conferred upon said lots or parcels or to the public at large.
DESCRIPTION OF BENEFIT
Special Benefit
The improvements and associated costs have been allocated to the assessable properties within the Districts based upon the special benefit received by those properties, pursuant to the provisions of the 1972 Act and the California Constitution.
The improvements for which the properties will be assessed have been identified as necessary, were required as a part of the development plans specifically for each individual tract and are also in compliance with the development plans and General Plan of the City. As such, the improvements and continuing maintenance and servicing are strictly the obligation of the properties within the Districts.
Definition of Special Benefit
The method of apportionment described in this Report is based on the premise that each assessable lot or parcel receives distinct and special benefits from the improvements and services provided, including the visual desirability provided by well-maintained landscaping. In accordance with Article XIII D, Section 4 of the California Constitution:
“Special benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or the public at large” Some of the special benefits associated with local landscaping and lighting improvements are:
• Enhanced desirability of properties due to proximity of the improvements. • Improved aesthetic appeal provided by a positive representation of the development, neighborhood and the community.
161
Engineer’s Report
Landscape & Lighting Maintenance Districts
City of Hughson
Fiscal Year 2025-26
24 • Improved ingress and egress to property resulting in enhanced traffic flow, reduced traffic accidents and consequent reduction in possible property damage.
• Improved traffic visibility and circulation.
• Improved accessibility for emergency vehicles.
• Reduced vandalism and other criminal activity.
ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA
It is generally recognized that most budgetary items will be impacted by inflation in future years. In accordance with the California Constitution, Section 53739 (b)(1), assessments “may be adjusted for inflation pursuant to a clearly defined formula…” A formula for an inflationary adjustment is therefore included as part of the maximum assessment within the Districts that allow for such, and was approved by the property owner(s) at the time of formation/annexation. The formula, as described below, allows for annual adjustments to the assessments.
Generally, any new or increased assessment requires certain noticing and meeting requirements by law. The Brown Act excludes certain conditions of a new or increased assessment. These conditions include, “An assessment that does not exceed an assessment formula or range of assessments previously specified in the notice given to the public…and that was previously adopted by the agency…”
The initial maximum assessment for each District was established at the time of formation/annexation. The Brittany Woods, Rhapsody Unit 1, Santa Fe Estates Phase 1, Santa Fe Estates Phase 2, Starn Estates, Sun Glow Estates and Walnut Haven III Districts however, do not have an inflationary adjustment. These Districts were created prior to the adoption of Proposition 218 in 1996 and did not include a provision to increase the initial maximum assessment. The initial maximum assessments for the remaining Districts have been adjusted each fiscal year subsequent to the year of formation by the following Assessment Range Formula:
• The Maximum Assessment Rate allowed each fiscal year (the “Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate”) shall be based on the initial maximum assessment, adjusted annually by Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index for the month of February, All Urban Consumers, (“CPI”) for the San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose area, plus a 3% escalation. Should the Bureau of Labor Statistics revise or discontinue the preparation of such index, the City reserves the right to use such revised index or a comparable system to determine fluctuations in the annual cost of living. • Each fiscal year, the February CPI amount, plus a 3% escalation, has been applied to the Maximum Assessment Rate established the previous fiscal year to calculate the appropriate Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate for the then current fiscal year. • If the proposed annual assessment rate for the upcoming fiscal year is less than or equal to the Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate established for that fiscal year, then the proposed annual assessment is not considered an increased assessment.
Beginning in the second fiscal year after the formation of a District, the Maximum Assessment Rate has been recalculated and a new Maximum Assessment Rate (Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate) has been established for each fiscal year 162
Engineer’s Report
Landscape & Lighting Maintenance Districts
City of Hughson
Fiscal Year 2025-26
25 using the Assessment Range Formula described above. The Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate has been calculated independent of the annual budget and proposed assessment rate for the given fiscal year. As stated above, if the proposed annual assessment for any fiscal year does not exceed the Adjusted Maximum Assessment Rate for that year, it is not considered an increased assessment under the terms of Proposition 218.
The CPI increase for the one-year period ending in February 2025 is 2.6890% (rounded). This amount, plus a 3% escalation, will be applied to the Maximum Assessment for the Central Hughson, Euclid North, Euclid South, Feathers Glen, Fontana Ranch North, Fontana Ranch South, Rhapsody II and Sterling Glen III Districts only, which will establish the Adjusted Maximum Assessment for each of these Districts for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The 2025-26 Maximum Assessment for each of these Districts is shown on the budget pages in Section II of this Report.
As stated above, the Brittany Woods, Rhapsody Unit 1, Santa Fe Estates Phase 1, Santa Fe Estates Phase 2, Starn Estates, Sun Glow Estates and Walnut Haven III Districts, do not currently have an inflationary adjustment.
To impose a new assessment or increased assessment in excess of the Maximum Assessment Rate for the current fiscal year, as provided by the preceding Assessment Range Formula, the City must comply with the provisions of the California Constitution, Article XIII D, Section 4c that requires a public hearing and certain protest procedures including mailed notice of the public hearing and property owner protest balloting. Property owners must approve the proposed new or increased assessment via a property owner protest balloting process before any such new or increased assessment can be imposed.
A protest occurs when, at the public hearing, the returned assessment ballots opposed to the new or increased assessment outweigh the returned ballots in favor of the new or increased assessment, weighting those assessment ballots by the financial obligation of each parcel.
The definition of new or increased assessments includes any assessment which, 1) did not previously exist or, 2) exceeds a previously approved assessment amount or assessment range formula which has been adopted by the agency and approved by the property owners in the area where the assessment is imposed.
ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The benefit formula used to determine the financial obligation for each parcel should be based on the improvements benefitting the parcels, as well as the use, or type, of each parcel as compared to other parcels that benefit from said improvements. One of the more common approaches to fairly distributing District costs to the benefitting parcels in maintenance districts such as this utilizes a methodology referred to as the Per Parcel method of apportionment. This method recognizes that each parcel within a particular District benefits equally from the improvements. This is typical when all parcels within the District are of the same type (ex. all single-family dwellings).
Other than Central Hughson, each District is comprised of a single parcel type – residential. The residential parcels are single-family residential parcels (“SFR”) and as such are deemed to benefit equally from the improvements. The “Total Balance to Levy”, as shown on the Budget pages, is divided equally among each assessable parcel within the District, determining the annual assessment rate per parcel for that District.
The Central Hughson District is comprised of several property types including single-family residential, commercial, agriculture and vacant. The costs are spread to those parcels based on the individual parcel size. 163

If any parcel submitted for collection is identified by the County Auditor/Controller to be an invalid parcel number for the current fiscal year, a corrected parcel number and/or new parcel numbers will be identified and resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be based on the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this Report. Therefore, if a single parcel has changed to multiple parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new parcels shall be recalculated and applied according to the approved method of apportionment and assessment rate rather than a proportionate share of the original assessment.
Non-assessable lots or parcels include areas of public streets and other roadways (typically not assigned an APN by the County); dedicated public easements, open space areas and rights-of-way, including public greenbelts and parkways; utility rights-of-way; common areas; landlocked parcels; small parcels vacated by the County, bifurcated lots and any other property that cannot be developed or has specific development restrictions. These types of parcels are considered to receive little or no benefit from the improvements and are therefore, exempted from assessment 164
