1 INTRODUCTION
Purpose
Pursuant to the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, being Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, commencing with Section 22500 (the “1972 Act”), and in compliance with the substantive and procedural requirements of the California State Constitution Article XIII D (the “California Constitution”) the City Council of the City of Lancaster (the “City”), adopted a Resolution Initiating Proceedings for the Levy and Collection of Annual Assessments within Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 and Fox Field Industrial Corridor Landscape Maintenance District (the “District”) for Fiscal Year 2024-
25. Said Resolution called for the preparation and filing of an annual report (“Report”) pursuant to Chapter 1, Article 4 of the 1972 Act, beginning with section 22565, presenting plans and specifications describing the general nature, location and extent of the improvements to be maintained and an estimate of the costs to maintain said improvements within the District.
The word “parcel”, for purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number (“APN”) by the Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office. The Los Angeles County Auditor/Controller uses APN and specific fund numbers to identify properties to be assessed on the tax roll for special benefit assessments.
This Report consists of five sections and identifies the following items:
•Plans and Specifications. The location of the District and the specific improvements to be maintained.
•Estimate of Costs. The District costs and proposed assessments to be levied for 2024-25. •Method of Apportionment. How the District costs are allocated and apportioned to the assessable parcels based upon the benefit received.
•District Diagram. A Diagram showing the District boundaries. •Assessment Roll. A listing of properties to be assessed by APN and corresponding assessment amounts.
Overview
The City Council of the City of Lancaster approved the formation of Lancaster Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 in June 1983, for the purpose of providing funds for the provision of landscape maintenance services for landscape improvements within the Improvement Areas of the District, in accordance with State Law. Since its formation in June 1983, territory has been annexed into the District each year, increasing the improvement areas and the size of the district.
Each lot or parcel within the District that was annexed prior to Fiscal Year 2005-06 will be assessed a unit assessment of $80.00 for Fiscal Year 2024-25. Properties annexed beginning Fiscal Year 2005-06 will be assessed at $139.50 per unit, which includes the established February CPI adjustment of 3.36% and will be subject to future annual CPI adjustments.

3 IMPACTS OF PROPOSITION 218
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" which added Article XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 establishes new procedural requirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts.
Proposition 218 also requires that with certain specified exceptions, which are described below, all existing assessment districts must be ratified by the property owners within the district using the new procedures.
Some of these exceptions include:
1) Any assessment imposed exclusively to finance the capital cost or maintenance and operation expenses for streets.
2) Any assessments levied pursuant to a petition signed by the persons owning all of the parcels subject to the assessment at the time the assessment was initially imposed.
However, even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition 218, if the assessments are increased in the future, the City will need to comply with the provisions of Proposition 218 for that portion of the increased assessment, unless the increase in assessment was anticipated in the assessment formula (e.g., CPI increase).
Proposition 218 does not define this term “streets”, however, following the passage of Proposition 218 based on conversations with other public agency officials, attorneys, assessment engineers and Senate Bill 919, it has been determined that “streets” include all public improvements located within the street right-of-way. This would include median and parkway landscaping, safety lighting and street lighting.
It was also determined that if assessments were imposed as a condition of development and property owners agreed to the imposition of assessments and subsequently signed a development agreement confirming so, this would suffice for the requirement of signing a petition to annex into the District.
The more difficult question arose in those situations where the levy of assessments was imposed as a condition of approval for land development or subdivision where the property owner did not enter into a development agreement. In those cases, if the landscape or park facilities and the resulting assessment were a condition of the land development or subdivision approval and the property owner acquiesces to the levy of assessment, it is reasoned that this was a functional equivalent of giving express consent or signing a petition requesting the imposition of the assessment. Even the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers' Association seems to tacitly support this conclusion in its "Statement of Drafters' Intent". When discussing the exemption for existing assessments imposed pursuant to a petition, the taxpayers' association said:
"This provision exempts most land secured financing arrangements used by developers." Clearly acceptance of a condition of approval of a development or subdivision which requires that imposition of assessments is a common form of land secured financing used by developers to fund landscape maintenance.

7 PART II – COST ESTIMATE
Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 Cost Estimate
There were 18,613 parcels being assessed prior to the effective date of Proposition 218, which was July 1, 1997. These assessments, imposed pursuant to petitions signed by the owners of the properties, are exempted from the requirements of Proposition 218. Those 18,611 parcels will be assessed a unit assessment of $80.00 for Fiscal Year 2024-25. The unit assessment rate of $80.00 has not been increased, as there is no provision for an annual escalator for those parcels existing at the time Proposition 218 was adopted.
There are an estimated 3,246 additional parcels that have been annexed into the District since the effective date of Proposition 218. All of these parcels receive a Special Benefit from the improvements and services provided and will be assessed in accordance with the requirements of Proposition 218.
The District costs for maintenance and incidentals for Fiscal Year 2024-25 include legal advertising, tree and plant material, horticultural service, landscape maintenance, grounds maintenance, soil and weed control, graffiti abatement, electricity, water, transfer/city administration costs which includes salaries, benefits, equipment, and overhead. The total estimated operating cost to the District for Fiscal Year 2024- 25 is $2,832,376 and is proposed to be paid from the monies in the Landscape Maintenance District Fund.
The operating costs for the Fox Field Industrial Corridor are included in the overall District budget shown on the following page. Budgeted expenses are estimated through June 30, 2025.

9 Fox Field Industrial Corridor Landscape Maintenance District Cost Estimate The total cost shall be assessed proportionally to each individual parcel based upon the benefit received.
As a condition of development within the Fox Field Industrial Corridor, the developers are required to provide street trees and parkway landscaping along Avenue G in accordance with the requirements of the Fox Field Industrial Corridor Specific Plan. The District provides for the maintenance and servicing of the landscape improvements and all incidentals thereto. All parcels receive direct and special benefit from the landscape improvements and services, and therefore the cost are apportioned to the lots created by development.
In accordance with the Fox Field Industrial Corridor Specific Plan, Avenue G was designed with a 10-foot wide landscaping easement on both sides with shrubs and canopy trees, as well as a 14-foot wide median, (7' of median included in cost calculation).
Determining the Cost per Benefit Unit
Benefit Units (BUs) for each parcel have been determined as a function of gross acreage and a Benefit Factor, related as shown in the following equation:
BUs = Gross Acres x Benefit Factor
Table 1 on the following page summarizes the total area, assigned benefit factor, and total benefit units calculated for each of the proposed land uses in the Fox Field Industrial Corridor Landscape Maintenance District.

11 PART III – METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
General
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 all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.
—Streets and Highways Code Section 22573
The method of apportionment described in this Report, and confirmed by the City Council at the time the District was formed, 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.
Special Benefit
The improvements and associated costs have been allocated to the assessable properties within the District based upon the special benefit received by those properties. The improvements for which the properties are assessed have been identified as necessary, were installed and are being maintained as part of the development plans specifically for each tract. As such, the improvements and continuing maintenance and servicing of those improvements are strictly the obligation of those properties.
General Benefit
Although the improvements may be visible to passersby or to the public at large, the improvements were installed as a requirement of the development and are for the benefit of properties within the District and development. It has been determined therefore, any access or use by properties or individuals outside the District is incidental and the costs of operating, maintaining, and servicing said improvements therefore provides no measurable benefit to those outside properties or individuals.
Engineer’s Report
Lancaster Lighting Maintenance District
City of Lancaster
Fiscal Year 2024-25
12 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.
—Article XIII D, Section 4 of the California Constitution Basis of Special Benefit Proportioning
The City of Lancaster requires a ten-foot wide landscape area for all residential development adjacent to all primary and secondary arterials. This requirement produces quarter square mile sections of residential development, with a ten foot wide landscape strip around the perimeter. The perimeter landscaping improves the appearance of the residential development and provides a benefit to all parcels within the area. The landscaping also helps control erosion, provides shade, and reduces heat buildup in the development. These benefits are considered a Special Benefit to all of the parcels within the quarter square mile section.

16 PART V – ASSESSMENT ROLL
Parcel Identification for each lot or parcel within the District shall be based on available parcel maps and other property data from the Los Angeles County Assessor’s office as they existed at the time this Report was prepared and adopted by the City Council.
A complete listing of parcels assessed within the District for Fiscal Year 2024-25, is too voluminous to include in the Report but is incorporated herein by reference and is on file with the City Clerk’s Office. 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; 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.
