TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
1 Subject: Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) enforcement update for Quarter 3 of FY21-22 – Discussion of Certified Property for Short-Term Rental businesses Meeting Date: June 1, 2022
Written by: Rob Patterson, Administrative Services / Finance Director RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Town Council review the presentation on accounting structure and interactive map for short-term rentals within the Town of Mammoth Lakes and provide comments and direction as necessary.
BACKGROUND:
Town staff has been working on a new structure for tracking and administration of short-term rentals (STR) within the Town of Mammoth Lakes. The current system is focused on the business of conducting rentals, similar to all other businesses in town, requiring a business tax certificate (BTC) for legal operation. In addition to a BTC, short-term rental businesses are required to obtain a transient occupancy tax certificate for their property. This TOT certificate is displayed within the unit and provides information to the renter on approved occupancy for the unit and 24-hour emergency contact information. The TOT certificates are issued to the unit for each operator that advertises for that unit, so there can be several TOT certificates for each property as different rental agencies, as well as the owner, may facilitate rentals on occasion. The crux of the current process is the TOT certificate belongs to the BTC holder and not the responsible party, the property owner.
While this system of tracking and reporting have been in use for many years, there are improvements that can be made to the process that will satisfy the current requirements and provide additional benefits to both visitors, the community, and staff.
ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION:
Staff is proposing to flip the current structure of BTC / TOT certificate and start with the process of certifying the property for rental prior to issuing a BTC or allowing the property to be marketed for business. Once a property is certified, a number is issued that can be provided to every BTC holder who would like to market the property for rental activity. The key difference between certified properties and the previous TOT certificate is the fact the property owner must work directly with the Town, establishing a relationship and understanding of responsibility for all rental activity conducted within their unit. While this is the case currently from a legal perspective, establishing this contact and dialogue will be helpful to understand they are engaged in business and there are specific requirements that must be met.
The goal of this approach is to address some of the short comings of our current structure namely the establishment of responsibility listed above, and some key elements addressed below. Staff would like input from Town Council on the elements listed below as they are recommendations
2 on how the system can be improved and provide additional requirements for the short-term rental business.
Certified property attributes - Owners
All properties require inspections, safety and compliance, every four years - Currently if someone wants to rent a property, they must secure an inspection. However, when this was implemented originally, many existing units were grandfathered into the program and have not been inspected. There is no provision requiring follow up inspections in our current process but this is recommended. Inspections include basic safety items such fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, and required postings, occupancy limits etc. Properties must remain in good standing – If the Town receives complaints about the operation of the property, including activity of visitors to the property, and those items are not effectively addressed, the property may be ineligible for rental until corrected. Properties information will be updated and published on an interactive map. – The Town has developed a digital map that contains information on each legal rental unit in Town.
Property owners would be required to pay an annual fee - the fee collected would cover the Rentalscape annual monitoring contract which is currently charged to the Town on a per unit basis. Failure to pay the annual fee would make the property ineligible for rental until corrected.
Verified Emergency Contact and Cleaning Service – Owner required to provide a 24- hour contact and BTC for cleaning company, if not the owner. Both may be the property management company if the unit is managed. This information will be published on the interactive map.
Violations of Municipal Code my result in revocation of certificate – In the event a violation of the Town municipal code or illegal activity occurs at the rental property, the Town reserves the right to suspend or revoke the certificate. Violations include but are not limited to, health and safety, fire, building, noise, parking, occupancy, trash and advertising without the certificate number present.
Word of Mouth Conformity – In making the owners more aware and accountable of the requirements to rent transiently, compliance should improve as owners who are held accountable will self-enforce other owners in their complex. This will also boost education of the transient rental program and combat misunderstanding or misinformation that sometimes exists in the community.
Enhanced Enforcement – Certifying the properties first allows for more precise enforcement for violations as we have direct contact with the responsible party (owner).
Ultimately any violations are tied to the property rather than the license to conduct business (BTC).
3 Certified property attributes - Operators
Certificate number must be displayed in all marketing ads – This will assist Town staff in identification of legal and illegal properties.
Monthly Tax returns must include gross receipts and statical data per certified unit – Currently tax returns indicate the gross receipts and tax for the entire business, which can be several to hundreds of properties. We propose a new online form where an operator can enter details on each property. # Nights rented, gross receipts, owner nights, each month.
The property management company would still only provide one tax return, but the attachment includes details listed above for each unit. Responsible Accounting – Requiring operators to remit revenues and statistical data by property will create an additional layer of accountability and property management.
Accuracy for revenue reporting as well as maintaining detailed property unit lists will improve. Statistical data will assist in staff analysis of our overall transient rental business. Property Tracking – If property was represented by a rental agency and is no longer, the operator must notify the Town of this change. Town will verify they are with another operator or no longer in business. Properties advertising or renting without an identified BTC to remit TOT may have their certificates suspended or revoked. Streamlined Transitions – If an owner chooses to transition from one property management agency to another the change doesn’t require recertification.
SUMMARY
Staff believes the implementation of this new process will support an improved business environment within the short-term rental businesses. It will provide more accountability for knowledge of rules and regulations governing their businesses. These changes should also improve the visitor experience as rules governing the safety of the rental units are controlled more tightly within the new process. Finally, the interactive map and transparency of our short-term rental unit inventory in town will assist in identifying illegal or detrimental activity. Neighborhood concerns about the activities at a specific property can be shared with the owner, management company and the Town for resolution. If corrective action is not taken, owners will run the risk of losing their certified status and the ability to rent the unit.

RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL
OF THE TOWN OF MAMMOTH LAKES, STATE OF CALIFORNIA,
RE-AUTHORIZING THE TOWN COUNCIL TO MEET VIRUTALLY DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC DECLARED EMERGENCY
WHEREAS, the Town of Mammoth Lakes supports transparency in government, and meetings of the Town Council and other legislative bodies of the Town are conducted in compliance with the Brown Act (Government Code Section 54950 et seq), so that members of the public may attend, observe, and participate; and WHEREAS, Government Code Section 54953(e) is a provision of the Brown Act establishing special rules that apply under specific circumstances to meetings of local government legislative bodies that are conducted remotely via teleconference; and
WHEREAS, using the special rules will facilitate continuing to conduct meetings remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council does hereby find that allowing for conducting public meetings virtually will support social distancing and reduces the potential risk to the public, elected officials and employees to be infected by or to spread COVID-19; and
WHEREAS, a required condition for the use of the Section 54953(e) rules is the existence of a state of emergency declared by the Governor pursuant to Government Code Section 8625, proclaiming the existence of conditions of disaster or of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property within the state caused by conditions as described in Government Code Section 8558; and WHEREAS, an additional required condition is that state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, or that the legislative body meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees; and
WHEREAS, the Governor of California declared a Statewide state of emergency due to the COVID-19 virus on Wednesday, March 4; and
WHEREAS, on March 15, 2020 the Mono County Health Officer declared a local health emergency, including finding “that there is an imminent and proximate threat to public health from the introduction of COVID-19 in Mono County;” and WHEREAS, the Mono County Director of Public Health has recently issued a memorandum recommending that social distancing be used as one means of reducing the spread of COVID-19; and

WHEREAS, emergency conditions continue to exist in the Town of Mammoth Lakes, as reflected by the ongoing state of emergency declared by the Governor; and
WHEREAS, requiring the meetings of the Town Council and other legislative bodies of the Town of Mammoth Lakes to be conducted entirely in person would create a risk to the health and safety of the members of the public who might attend, the members of the Town Council, Town staff, and other persons attending meetings; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Mammoth Lakes continues to comply with the requirements of Section 54953(e) to ensure public access to meetings of Town legislative bodies, including by providing notice and posting meeting agendas, allowing members of the public to access the meeting and provide comments via an Internet-based service option, and providing an opportunity for the public to address legislative bodies and offer comment in real time.

Agenda Action Sheet
Title: Award the bid for publication of legal notices for fiscal year 2022-23 to The Sheet.
Council Meeting Date: 6/1/2022
Prepared by: Jamie Gray, Town Clerk
Recommended Motion: Award the bid for publication of legal notices for fiscal year 2022-23 to The Sheet.
Summary: Public Contracts Code Section 20169 stipulates that, “Annually before the beginning of the fiscal year, in cities where there is more than one newspaper of general circulation printed and published, the legislative body shall publish a notice inviting bids and contract for the publication of legal notices required to be published in such a newspaper. The contract shall include the printing and publishing of all such legal notices during the fiscal year.

The contract will be valid from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023.
1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Adopt the Resolution Initiating the Proceedings to Levy Assessment, Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Assessment District 93-1(Juniper Ridge) for Fiscal Year 2022/23, and Resolution Approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
Meeting Date: June 1, 2022
Prepared by: Sierra Shultz, Deputy Airport Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Town Council adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Assessment District 93-1 (Juniper Ridge) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
Each year at this time, the assessment against properties within Assessment District 93-1 (Juniper Ridge) must be reevaluated to determine whether the annual funding is sufficient for the anticipated costs of public services needed in the upcoming fiscal year. The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, under which the district was formed, requires that a new Engineer’s Report be prepared and a public meeting and/or public hearing be held each year to determine and levy the annual assessments.
ANALYSIS:
For the summer of 2022, there are no large-scale projects or major maintenance planned but annual landscaping maintenance is planned. Staff reviewed the condition of the district and considered appropriate maintenance improvements and accruals needed for such improvements. At this time, staff recommends that the maximum levy of $48,000 ($1,200 per lot) be assessed for Fiscal Year 2022/23.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The Engineer's Report as prepared by NBS includes detail for all Financial Considerations.
In summary, the total district assessment is $48,000 for the 2022/23 fiscal year.

2. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The District provides and ensures the continued maintenance, servicing, administration, and operation of various improvements and associated appurtenances located within the public right-of-way and dedicated easements within the boundaries of the District.
2.1 Description of the Boundaries of the District
The District is located within the Town. The District is described generally as east of Lake Mary Road and consisting of the residential parcels on Juniper Road and Juniper Court.
2.2 Description of Improvements
The improvements and other items maintained under the District are depicted in the Juniper Ridge Street Improvement Plans for Tract No. 36-168 on file in the office of the Town Engineer. Generally, the improvements consist of the existing public streets accessing the subdivision (Juniper Road and Juniper Court, roadway landscaping, ornamental street lighting, street name and traffic signs, snow stakes along the streets, and the decorative walls opposite of and at the entrance to this subdivision on Lake Mary Road). The juniper trees are a natural feature of the area and for preservation purposes, would be those located within the public rights-of-way.
2.3 Description of Maintenance
Maintenance of the existing improvements and facilities includes normal upkeep and repair but does not include pavement, curb, crib wall, and drainage maintenance during the summer months. The Town Public Work Maintenance Division, as part of its routine summer maintenance program, presently accomplishes the latter. Snow removal and storage is included as a District function for purposes of maintaining the public streets in a safe condition for traffic during the winter season. The prescribed minimum levels of public service are the same as those provided elsewhere throughout the Town.

4. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
4.1 Method of Assessment Spread
The total assessment for Fiscal Year 2022/23 shall be levied against each assessable parcel within the District according to benefit received. Exempt, or non-assessable parcels, include all public streets and easements, public rights-of-ways, public agency-owned properties and easements, and all federally owned properties. Within the District there are a total of 39 parcels, two of which are exempt from assessments.
The remaining parcels are single-family residential lots, created by Tract Map No. 36-168. One parcel includes three lots and another parcel spans across two lots, due to County reconfiguration of the parcels.
In total, there are 40 residential lots. The net total assessment is divided equally amongst the 40 residential lots on the basis that each lot benefits equally from the maintained public improvements.
The assessment for Fiscal Year 2022/23 is $1,200.00 per residential lot.
4.2 Time and Manner of Collecting Assessments
The Town will levy and collect the District assessments in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes.

5.2 Appendix B – Assessment Roll
A listing of assessor’s parcels assessed within the District for Fiscal Year 2022/23, along with the assessment amounts, is on file in the office of the Town Clerk and presented on the following page. Based on County Assessor’s secured roll data, current assessor’s parcels, including corrected and/or new assessor’s parcels, will be submitted and/or resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The annual assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this report. Therefore, if a single assessor’s parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple assessor’s parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new assessor’s 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 amount.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Assessment District 93-4 (The Bluffs) Maintenance District No.1 for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
Meeting Date: June 1, 2022
Prepared by: Sierra Shultz, Deputy Airport Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Town Council adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Assessment District 93-4 Zone 1 (The Bluffs) Maintenance District No. 1 for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
Each year at this time, the assessments against properties within Assessment District 93-4, Zone 1 (The Bluffs) Maintenance District No. 1 must be reevaluated to determine whether the annual funding is sufficient for the anticipated costs of public services needed in the coming fiscal year. The Improvement Act of 1911, under which the District was formed, requires a Resolution determining the assessment amount to be levied. This agenda item recommends adoption of a resolution approving the annual report in accordance with the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 and the Improvement Act of 1911.
ANALYSIS:
In Fiscal Year 2021/22, there were no maintenance projects done in the Bluffs since everything was previously repaired and maintained. The Town has considered a long-term pavement management program for the Bluffs and has a slurry seal project planned for summer of 2022. The Town has determined that due to current fund balances and longterm needs, it is recommended that a levy of $165,900.00 be assessed in Fiscal Year 2022/23. The maximum assessment rate per lot is $2,100.00 and the assessment being recommended is $2,100.00 per lot, in order to reach an adequate fund balance for annual maintenance and long-term reserve requirements. A public hearing will be held to ensure the public has the opportunity to comment.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The Engineer's Report as prepared by NBS includes detail for all Financial Considerations.
In summary, the total district assessment is $165,900 for the 2022/23 fiscal year.

5.2 Appendix B – Assessment Roll
A listing of assessor’s parcels assessed within the District for Fiscal Year 2022/23, along with the assessment amounts, is on file in the office of the Town Clerk and presented on the following pages. Based on County Assessor’s secured roll data, current assessor’s parcels, including corrected and/or new assessor’s parcels, will be submitted and/or resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The annual assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this report. Therefore, if a single assessor’s parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple assessor’s parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new assessor’s 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 amount.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within the Benefit Assessment District 2002-01 (Old Mammoth Road) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
Meeting Date: June 1, 2022
Prepared by: Sierra Shultz, Deputy Airport Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Town Council adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Benefit Assessment District 2002-01 (Old Mammoth Road) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
Each year at this time, the assessment against properties within Benefit Assessment District 2002-01 (Old Mammoth Road) must be reevaluated to determine whether the annual funding is sufficient for the anticipated costs of public services needed in the coming fiscal year. The Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, under which the district was formed, requires that a new Engineer’s Report be prepared each year to determine and levy the annual assessments.
ANALYSIS:
In past years the Town, on behalf of the district, did minor landscaping improvements.
Staff plans to do a large-scale landscaping project in summer of 2022; therefore, the budget has been programmed accordingly. Throughout Fiscal Year 2021/22 staff reviewed the conditions of district facilities and considered appropriate maintenance improvements and necessary accruals. Staff recommends that the Town levy an assessment amount of $188,962.00 for Fiscal Year 2022/23 to preserve necessary funds for future projects and maintenance including snow removal expenses. The maximum allowed for the district assessment is $236,960.65. A public hearing is required under the code sections for which the assessment is governed.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The Engineer's Report as prepared by NBS includes detail for all Financial Considerations.
In summary, the total district assessment is $188,962.00 for the 2022/23 fiscal year.

4. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
4.1 Statutory Considerations
Proposition 218, the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act” was approved by California voters in 1996, which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California State Constitution. The primary results of Proposition 218 were stricter definitions of assessments, special taxes, fees, and charges, and a general mandate for some type of voter approval for any new or increased tax, assessment, or property-related fee. The Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act (the “Implementation Act”) was approved July 1, 1997. The Implementation Act provided for procedures throughout the notice, protest and hearing process.
4.1.1 GENERAL BENEFIT
Proposition 218 requires that any local agency proposing to increase or impose a special assessment to “separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel.” The rationale for separating special and general benefits is to ensure that the property owners are not charged with an assessment that pays for general benefits. Thus, a local agency carrying out projects or services that provide both special and general benefits may levy an assessment to pay for the special benefits but must acquire separate funding to pay for those general benefits.
The District provides snow management services along Old Mammoth Road, which is an arterial/collector street. The snow management services provide a portion of general benefit to both properties and the public at large. So that properties within the District boundaries do not pay for the general benefit of the snow management services, the Town contributes approximately one-half of the annual snow management budget to the total annual District budget.
4.1.2 SPECIAL BENEFIT
Pursuant to Proposition 218, or more specifically Article XIIID, Section 2(i) “Special benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. General enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit.”
All parcels that have special benefit conferred upon them as a result of the improvements, services and activities provided shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entire cost of the improvements, services and activities.
In accordance with Article XIIID Section 4(a) “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, and an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel.” Article XIIID also 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 easements, and rights-of-ways.
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report - Old Mammoth Road Benefit Assessment District 2002-1 6 The maintenance and operation of improvements and services, more fully described in the Plans and Specifications section of this report, are for the benefit of the properties within the District, and as such confer a special and direct benefit to parcels within the District by:
allowing individual parcels to be developed and used to their fullest extent by ensuring adequate snow management, drainage, and sidewalk sweeping which is essential to the use, preservation, and protection of those properties, and
improving the livability, appearance, and desirability for properties within the boundaries, through landscaping of the District, and
providing for safe vehicular and pedestrian access through proper snow management, drainage, streetlighting, and sidewalk maintenance for properties within the District, and ensuring that the improvements do not reach a state of deterioration or disrepair so as to be materially detrimental to properties within the District.
The above-mentioned items contribute to a specific enhancement of the properties within the District.
Since these improvements were installed and are maintained specifically for the properties within the District; only properties within the District receive a special benefit and are assessed for said maintenance.
4.2 Method of Assessment Spread
There are 410 assessed parcels within the District. Due to the linear nature of the maintenance and operation of the improvements, parcels within the District are deemed to receive proportional special benefit from the maintenance and operation of the improvements, based on their assigned linear frontage to Old Mammoth Road. The assessment is spread to each parcel within the District as follows for Fiscal Year 2022/23:
Description Amount/Rate
Total District Linear Feet 7,390.21
Maximum Maintenance Assessment Per Linear Foot (1) $32.06 Total Maximum District Assessment (2) $236,960.65
Estimated Maintenance Assessment Per Linear Foot $25.57 Total Estimated District Assessment (2) $188,962.00
(1) The maximum maintenance assessment per linear foot is subject to a 2% increase per year. (2) Does not include rounding adjustments for tax roll purposes.

Regardless of the assessment amount actually levied each year (assessments may be levied at less than the maximum assessment rate), the maximum allowable assessment rate will increase. Any increase in the actual amount of the assessment levied, as long as it does not exceed the maximum allowable assessment for that fiscal year, will not be considered an increase of the assessment as defined by Proposition 218.
4.4 Time and Manner of Collecting Assessments
The Town will levy and collect the District assessments in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes.

The annual assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this report. Therefore, if a single assessor’s parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple assessor’s parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new assessor’s 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 amount.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Assessments within Benefit Assessment District 2002-02 (North Village) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
Meeting Date: June 1, 2022
Prepared by: Sierra Shultz, Deputy Airport Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Town Council adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Benefit Assessment District 2002-02 (North Village) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
Each year at this time, the assessments against properties within Benefit Assessment District 2002-02 (North Village) must be reevaluated to determine whether the annual funding is sufficient for the anticipated costs of public services needed in the coming fiscal year. The Benefit Assessment Act of 1982, under which the District was formed, requires that a new Engineer’s Report be prepared each year to determine and levy the annual assessments. This agenda item recommends adoption of a resolution approving the annual report in accordance with the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 and the Improvement Act of 1911.
ANALYSIS:
During Fiscal Year 2021/22, staff reviewed the conditions of district improvements and consider appropriate major maintenance improvements and necessary accruals. There is no large-scale project planned for summer of 2022. Staff recommends that a levy of $54,260.00 be assessed in Fiscal Year 2022/23. The maximum assessment revenue for Fiscal Year 2022/23 is $187,976.62. A public hearing is required under the code sections for which the assessment is governed.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The Engineer's Report as prepared by NBS includes detail for all Financial Considerations.
In summary, the total district budget is $54,260.00 for the 2022/23 fiscal year.

4. METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
4.1 Statutory Considerations
Proposition 218, the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act” was approved by California voters in 1996, which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California State Constitution. The primary results of Proposition 218 were stricter definitions of assessments, special taxes, fees, and charges, and a general mandate for some type of voter approval for any new or increased tax, assessment, or property-related fee. The Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act (the “Implementation Act”) was approved July 1, 1997. The Implementation Act provided for procedures throughout the notice, protest, and hearing process.
4.1.1 GENERAL BENEFIT
Proposition 218 requires that any local agency proposing to increase or impose a special assessment to “separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel.” The rationale for separating special and general benefits is to ensure that the property owners are not charged with an assessment that pays for general benefits. Thus, a local agency carrying out projects or services that provide both special and general benefits may levy an assessment to pay for the special benefits but must acquire separate funding to pay for those general benefits.
The District provides snow management services along portions of Canyon Boulevard, Forest Trail and Minaret Road, which are arterial/collector streets. The snow management services provide a portion of general benefit to both properties and the public at large. So that properties within the District boundaries do not pay for the general benefit of the snow management services, the Town contributes approximately one half of the annual snow management budget to the total annual District budget.
4.1.2 SPECIAL BENEFIT
Pursuant to Proposition 218, or more specifically Article XIIID, Section 2(i) “Special benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. General enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit.”
All parcels that have special benefit conferred upon them as a result of the improvements, services and activities provided shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entire cost of the improvements, services, and activities.
In accordance with Article XIIID Section 4(a) “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, and an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel.” Article XIIID also 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 easements, and rights-of-ways.
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report - North Village Area Benefit Assessment District 2002-2, Zone 1 6 The maintenance and operation of improvements and services, more fully described in the Plans and Specifications section of this report, are for the benefit of the properties within the District, and as such confer a special and direct benefit to parcels within the District by:
allowing individual parcels to be developed and used to their fullest extent by ensuring adequate snow management, drainage, sidewalk sweeping which is essential to the use, preservation, and protection of those properties, and
improving the livability, appearance, and desirability for properties within the boundaries, through landscaping of the District, and
providing for safe vehicular and pedestrian access through proper snow management, drainage, streetlighting, sidewalk maintenance for properties within the District, and ensuring that the improvements do not reach a state of deterioration or disrepair so as to be materially detrimental to properties within the District.
The above-mentioned items contribute to a specific enhancement of the properties within the District.
Since these improvements were installed and are maintained specifically for the properties within the District; only properties within the District receive a special benefit and are assessed for said maintenance.
4.2 Method of Assessment Spread
There are 532 assessable parcels within the District, with 523 parcels being classified as assessable developed parcels for Fiscal Year 2022/23. Parcels within the District receive proportional special benefit from the maintenance, servicing, and operation of the improvements, spread to each parcel as follows.
If the Town has issued a building permit or certificate of occupancy in any current or previous fiscal year, the property shall be deemed to be developed and receive special benefit from the improvements. The Director of Public Works shall each year identify those parcels that are developed. The maintenance costs will be assessed to each assessable developed parcel based upon the following table for Fiscal Year 2022/23:
Property Land Use Classification
FY 2022/23
Maximum Assessment
FY 2022/23
Actual Assessment
Condominium – 1 Bedroom/Studio $262.22/unit $75.69/unit Condominium – 2 Bedroom 349.63/unit 100.92/unit
Condominium – 3 Bedroom 437.04/unit 126.15/unit
Commercial Use 0.36/square foot 0.10/square foot
Gondola Parcel 0.36/square foot 0.10/square foot
Apartment Property 262.22/room 75.69/room
Hotel Property 262.22/room 75.69/room
Conference Facilities 0.00/square foot 0.00/square foot Common Areas 0.00/square foot 0.00/square foot
If any assessed parcel within the District contains multiple uses, the assessment assigned to that parcel shall be the total of all assessable uses upon that parcel.

These definitions shall govern for the determination of assessable areas.
The following table provides the historical total maximum assessment revenue for the District for the past five fiscal years:
Fiscal Year
Historical Maximum
Assessment Revenue
2018/19 173,954.71
2019/20 177,517.58
2020/21(1) 181,062.47
2021/22 184,005.83
2022/23 187,976.62
(1) Assessments were not levied for FY 2020/21 and actual assessment revenue was $0.
4.3 Maximum Annual Assessment Increase
The Fiscal Year 2003/04 maintenance assessment rates set the initial maximum assessment rates for the District. Beginning Fiscal Year 2004/05, the maximum annual assessment rate shall increase 2% over the previous year’s maximum annual assessment rate. Regardless of the assessment amount levied each year (assessments may be levied up to the maximum assessment rate), the maximum allowable assessment rate will increase. Any increase in the actual amount of the assessment levied, as long as it does not exceed the maximum allowable assessment for that fiscal year, will not be considered an increase of the assessment as defined by Proposition 218.
4.4 Time and Manner of Collecting Assessments
The Town will levy and collect the District assessments in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes.

5.2 Appendix B – Assessment Roll
A listing of assessor’s parcels assessed within the District for Fiscal Year 2022/23, along with the assessment amounts, is on file in the office of the Town Clerk and presented on the following pages. Based on County Assessor’s secured roll data, current assessor’s parcels, including corrected and/or new assessor’s parcels, will be submitted and/or resubmitted to the County Auditor/Controller. The annual assessment amount to be levied and collected for the resubmitted parcel(s) shall be determined in accordance with the method of apportionment and assessment rate approved in this report. Therefore, if a single assessor’s parcel has a status change in development, other land use change, or subdivides into multiple assessor’s parcels, the assessment amounts applied to each of the new assessor’s 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 amount.

1 TOWN COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Title: Adopt Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Assessment District 2014-1 (Mammoth View) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
Meeting Date: June 1, 2022
Prepared by: Sierra Shultz, Deputy Airport Manager
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Town Council adopt the Resolution of Intention to Levy and Collect Annual Assessments within Assessment District 2014-1 (Mammoth View) for the Fiscal Year 2022/23, approving the Annual Report, and setting the time and place for the public hearing on July 6, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
Each year at this time, the assessments against properties within Assessment District 2014- 1 (Mammoth View) must be reevaluated to determine whether the annual funding is sufficient for the anticipated costs of public services needed in the upcoming fiscal year.
The Improvement Act of 1911, under which the district was formed, requires a Resolution determining the amount be filed each year to determine and levy an annual assessment.
This staff report recommends the adoption of a resolution approving the annual report in accordance with the Benefit Assessment Act of 1982 and the Improvement Act of 1911.
ANALYSIS:
In Fiscal Year 2021/22, there were no maintenance projects done along Viewpoint Road.
The Town has considered administration costs, a long-term pavement management program, snow removal, and other maintenance for Viewpoint Road and has determined that due to current fund balances and long-term needs, it is recommended that a levy of $4,500.00 be assessed in Fiscal Year 2022/23. The maximum allowable assessment for 2022/23 is $37,093.24 and the assessment being recommended is $4,500.00 since the existing fund balance has sufficient maintenance funds and only needs additional funds for administrative costs. A public hearing is required under the code sections for which the assessment is governed.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
The Engineer's Report as prepared by NBS includes detail for all Financial Considerations.
In summary, the total district budget is $4,500.00 for the 2022/23 fiscal year.

3.2 Definitions of Budget Items
The following definitions describe the services and costs included in the District budget:
3.2.1 MAINTENANCE COSTS

Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 5
4. SPECIAL AND GENERAL BENEFIT
Pursuant to Article XIIID, all parcels that receive a special benefit conferred upon them as a result of the maintenance of the improvements shall be identified, and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entire costs of the maintenance of the improvements. The Benefit Assessment District Act of 1982, commencing with Section 54703 of the Government Code, permits the establishment of assessment districts by local agencies for the purpose of providing services which benefit individual properties for those services which confer special benefit upon the properties to which the services are being provided.
Section 54711(1) of the Benefit Assessment District Act of 1982 requires that assessments must be levied according to benefit, this Section states:
"The amount of the assessment imposed on any parcel of property shall be related to the benefit to the parcel which will be derived from the provision of the service." Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property. Article XIIID also 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. Examples of parcels 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, public greenbelts, and public parkways.
Furthermore, Proposition 218 requires that the Town separate the general benefit from special benefit, so that only special benefit may be assessed to properties within the District.
4.1 Identification of Benefit
The ongoing maintenance, servicing and operation of the District improvements will provide benefits to both those properties within the District boundaries and to the community as a whole. The snow cleared and year-round maintained improvements will provide an increased level of access for residents, guests, and emergency vehicles, and will also provide a safety benefit to property and people throughout the District. The following benefits will be provided as a result of the District maintenance activities:
Viewpoint Road Access
The maintenance activities will provide for clear and safe vehicular access to and from those District properties accessed via Viewpoint Road.
An improved and maintained Viewpoint Road, which meets the Town’s standards for maintenance, allows for more efficient and improved access to property by emergency service providers in the event of a fire, medical emergency, or natural disaster. Viewpoint Road does not include sidewalks, therefore, a snow cleared and maintained road will provide safe pedestrian passage from properties accessed from Viewpoint Road to sidewalks located along Main Street.
The snow cleared and maintained Viewpoint Road will minimize the number of vehicular accidents and pedestrian trip and fall occurrences potentially occurring along Viewpoint Road.
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 6 Emergency Access Area
The maintained emergency access area will improve the access and potentially the response times to properties served by this alternative access point by emergency service providers in the event of a fire, medical emergency, or natural disaster. Regular maintenance and repairs to the emergency access area will ensure that this access area does not reach a state of deterioration or disrepair so as to be materially detrimental to properties that are serviced by this emergency access point.
Pedestrian Safety
The maintained sidewalks will provide for clear and safe access to and from District properties, as well as provide for safe pedestrian passage through the District. The snow cleared and maintained sidewalk improvements will minimize the number of future trip and fall occurrences potentially occurring on sidewalks within the District. Well-maintained sidewalks provide a separation between vehicle and pedestrian as well as property and pedestrian, which provides a safety benefit for both property and pedestrian.
The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (FHWA, n.d.) notes that annually, around 4,500 pedestrians are killed in traffic crashes with motor vehicles in the United States. Pedestrians killed while "walking along the roadway" account for almost 8 percent of those deaths. Providing safe walkways separated from the travel lanes could help to prevent up to 88 percent of these "walking along roadway” crashes (FHWA, n.d.).
As a result of the collective improvements being maintained, the overall livability of the District will increase. Livability encompasses several qualities and characteristics that are unique to a specific area. The Victoria Transport Policy Institute (2011) expands on the concept of livability and the various benefits associated with that designation:
“The livability of an area increases property desirability and business activity. Livability is largely affected by conditions in the public realm, places where people naturally interact with each other and their community, including streets, parks, transportation terminals and other public facilities. Livability also refers to the environmental and social quality of an area as perceived by employees, customers, and visitors. This includes local environmental conditions, the quality of social interactions, opportunities for recreation and entertainment, aesthetics, and existence of unique cultural and environmental resources.”
4.2 Separation of General Benefit
Section 4 of Article XIIID of the California Constitution provides that once a local agency which proposes to impose assessments on property has identified those parcels that will have special benefits conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed, the local agency must next “separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred,” and only the special benefits can be included in the amount of the assessments imposed.
General benefit is an overall and similar benefit to the public at large resulting from the maintenance activities to be provided by the assessments levied. The improvements to be maintained by the District will be constructed and located within the District boundaries only. There will be no District maintenance activities provided for improvements located outside of the District boundaries.

Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 7 The maintained improvements will provide benefits to the property within the District, but it is recognized that the ongoing District maintenance activities will also provide a level of benefit to those passing through the District to access property outside of the District. Traffic from property within and outside of the District as well as individuals passing through the District area will be able to utilize the maintained improvements to not only access property located within a close proximity to the District, but also property located outside of the District. Therefore, the general benefit created as a result of the District maintenance activities has been considered.
4.3 Quantification of General Benefit
In order for property within the District to be assessed only for that portion of special benefit received from the District maintenance activities, the general benefit provided by the ongoing maintenance of the improvements needs to be quantified. The amount of general benefit that is provided from the District maintenance activities cannot be funded via property owner assessments within the District.
4.3.1 VIEWPOINT ROAD ACCESS GENERAL BENEFIT
From a visual inspection of the layout of Viewpoint Road within the District one must conclude that the purpose of Viewpoint Road is exclusively intended for the benefit of accessing property. Viewpoint Road is not a through street and, therefore, does not provide a direct means of traveling from one place to another such that one would reasonably expect a driver to purposefully choose Viewpoint Road as the best route for travel through the Town unless that travelled route began or ended with a parcel accessed from Viewpoint Road. A route beginning or ending with a parcel accessed from Viewpoint Road does not include the “general public” for purposes of determining general benefit. Given the location of Viewpoint Road to Main Street, there are bound to be drivers that will make limited use of Viewpoint Road. Drivers may accidentally turn onto Viewpoint Road in search of a property that is not located off of Viewpoint Road or drivers may potentially use Viewpoint Road to turn off of Main Street with the intent of turning around or going back from where they came. This potential traffic traveling along Viewpoint Road would be considered to be of general benefit. As expressed by the Court in Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), “... courts of this state have long recognized that virtually all public improvement projects provide general benefits." A conservative estimate of 1.00% is assigned as the general benefit portion of the benefits resulting from the maintenance activities related to Viewpoint Road. Therefore, the general benefit provided by the ongoing maintenance of Viewpoint Road is 1.00% and the special benefit provided by the ongoing maintenance is estimated to be 99.00%.
Viewpoint Road Access General Benefit 1.00%
4.3.2 EMERGENCY ACCESS AREA GENERAL BENEFIT
Based on the intended purpose of the emergency access area within the District one must conclude that the purpose of emergency access area is exclusively intended for the benefit of property accessed via this area. The emergency access area is not a normal route of travel and is intended to be used by emergency vehicles that need to access property in case of an emergency. However, there may be a minimal level of pedestrian traffic that utilizes the emergency access area to pass through the District for recreational purposes or to access property outside of the District. Again, as expressed by the Court in Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), “... courts of this state have long recognized that virtually all public improvement
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 8 projects provide general benefits." A conservative estimate of 1.00% is assigned as the general benefit portion of the benefits resulting from the District maintenance of the emergency access area. Therefore, the general benefit provided by the ongoing maintenance of emergency access area is 1.00% and the special benefit is estimated to be 99.00%.
Emergency Access Area General Benefit 1.00%
4.3.3 PEDESTRIAN SAFETY GENERAL BENEFIT
As a result of the District maintenance activities, there will be a level of general benefit to pedestrians and others who do not reside within the District. There will be pedestrian traffic generated from property outside of the District that will utilize the maintained sidewalks in order to pass through the District and access property located outside of the District boundaries. In addition to accessing property located outside of the District, there will also be a level of pedestrian activity that will utilize the maintained sidewalks for leisure and fitness activities. Pedestrians will incorporate the maintained and safe sidewalks into their leisure and fitness routines, thus making the sidewalks serve as a pass-through portion of their overall route traveled. The benefit provided to property and pedestrians, as a result of the maintained sidewalks serving as a pass-through corridor, needs to be quantified.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2010), the Town has a permanent resident population of approximately 8,234. However, the Town attracts a significant number of tourists and according to the Town’s Pedestrian Master Plan, adopted April 16, 2014, (TOML, 2014) during peak tourist season the Town’s population can increase to as many as 35,000 people. The Town’s 2007 General Plan (TOML, 2007) identifies that the non-permanent residential units accommodate 4 persons per unit on average. Based on this average person per unit size for the Town and considering there are 162 residential units within the District, there are approximately 648 people that could reside within the District boundaries at peak tourist season.
Population Area Population
Peak Tourist Season Town Population 35,000
Peak Tourist Season District Population (1) 648
(1) Based on 162 District residential units multiplied by 4.0 persons per unit.
In order to determine the utilization of the sidewalks within the Town and District, data from the Summary of Travel Trends, 2009 National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) prepared by the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (FHWA, 2011) was used, including the analysis of the number of person trips by various modes of transportations such as private vehicle, transit, walking or some other means of transportation. According to the Mountain Division data extracted from the 2009 NHTS database, of the annual 29,017 (in millions) total person trips, 2,663 (in millions) or 9.17% of those person trips were made by using walking as their mode of transportation (FHWA, 2011). Applying this percentage, to the populations listed above, the following table provides the number of persons that would utilize walking as the typical mode of transportation during the Town’s peak tourist season:

(1) Population multiplied by 9.17%.
To further quantify the non-District population that uses walking as the mode of transportation, the District population needs to be excluded from the total population figure of 3,212 identified above.
Therefore, the adjusted population, located outside of the District boundaries, that uses walking as the mode of transportation is 3,153 people.

Non-District Population Totals: 34,352 3,153
(1) Population multiplied by 9.17%.
In order to obtain a better picture of the overall level of general benefit provided by the maintained District sidewalk improvements, the pedestrian traffic that utilizes walking as the mode of transportation that will seek out and use the sidewalks within the District’s boundaries, but reside outside of the District, must be considered. The 2009 NHTS further details the purposes of the 2,663 (in millions) reported Mountain Division walking trips. Based on the residential/lodging property types within the District, people outside of the District would utilize the District sidewalks for the following reasons: shopping, dining, errands, walk to school, day care or religious activity, personal/family business, and appointments, social or recreational activities, and other.
The following table details the number of walking trips, based on the 2009 NHTS study, for each of the activities that are the most likely reasons people outside of the District would use the sidewalk improvements within the District:
Trip Purpose
Number of Walking
Trips
(in millions)
Shopping/Dining/Errands 529
School/Daycare/Religious activity 135
Personal/Family Business 173
Social/Recreational 709
Do not know/Other 69
Total 1,615
Of the total number of walking trips reported in the 2009 NHTS, 1,615 (in millions) or 60.65% are for purposes that persons outside of the District would utilize the sidewalk improvements within the District.
Applying this percentage (60.65%) to the number of people using walking as their mode of transportation
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 10 and that reside outside of the District (3,153), but use the sidewalks within the District, there are approximately 1,912 people using the maintained sidewalks to engage in general benefit activity.
Description Population
Non-District population utilizing walking as the
typical mode of transportation 3,153
% of 2009 NHTS walking trips representing
activities outside of the District 60.65%
Non-District population engaging in general
benefit activities 1,912
The number of persons engaging in general benefit activities represents 5.57% of the Town’s total peak tourist season population, of 34,352 previously identified above, and is therefore considered to be District general benefit.
Sidewalk General Benefit 5.57%
Therefore, the general benefit provided by the ongoing maintenance of the District sidewalks is 5.57% and the special benefit is estimated to be 94.43%.
4.3.4 COLLECTIVE GENERAL BENEFIT
Since the District is comprised of benefits resulting from a blend of maintained improvements (Viewpoint Road, emergency access area, and sidewalks), the activity of both pedestrians and vehicles must be addressed in a collective form rather than independently. Therefore, the arithmetic mean of the general benefit percentages has been used to quantify the overall level of general benefit for the District.
This general benefit result is provided in the table below:
Viewpoint Road Access General Benefit 1.00%
Emergency Access Area General Benefit 1.00%
Pedestrian Safety General Benefit 5.57%
Total District General Benefit 2.52%
The general benefit, which is the percentage of the total maintenance budget that must be funded through sources other than assessments, is 2.52%. The special benefit then, which is the percentage of the maintenance budget that may be funded by assessments, is 97.48%.
4.4 Apportioning of Special Benefit
As outlined above, each of the parcels within the District is deemed to receive special benefit from the ongoing District maintenance activities. Each parcel that has a special benefit conferred upon it as a result of the ongoing District maintenance activities is identified and the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel is determined in relationship to the District maintenance costs.
The District is comprised of two primary developments: Viewpoint condominiums and the Mammoth View project. However, the Mammoth View project can be further allocated into two categories: The Summit
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 11 properties and the Basecamp properties. The Summit properties include the 12 condominium units and 28 condominium cabin units that are accessed from Viewpoint Road. The Basecamp properties include the 12 condominium units and the hotel that are accessed from Mountain Boulevard and Alpine Circle.
4.4.1 BENEFIT POINTS ASSIGNMENT
Viewpoint Road Access Benefit Points Assignment: Viewpoint Road serves as the primary access point for the Viewpoint condominiums and the Summit properties. Vehicles and pedestrians will travel the entire length of the maintained Viewpoint Road to access the Summit properties. To account for the benefit that the Summit properties receive from having the entire length of Viewpoint Road maintained by the District, Summit properties are assigned 1.0 benefit point. However, access to the Viewpoint condominiums only requires vehicles and pedestrians to travel approximately 351 feet of the total 525-foot Viewpoint Road.
Since the Viewpoint condominiums utilize approximately 65% of the maintained Viewpoint Road, they are assigned 0.65 benefit points for the benefits received from that portion of the maintained Viewpoint Road used to access their properties. There is no vehicular access from Viewpoint Road to the Basecamp properties. However, pedestrian traffic from the Basecamp properties has been considered. The Mammoth View project is designed, and has pedestrian walkways, for residents and guests to use the various amenities located throughout the entire project. Pedestrians may utilize these walkways to access Viewpoint Road to in order to travel outside of the District via Viewpoint Road. To recognize the potential pedestrian traffic along Viewpoint Road from the Basecamp properties, 0.25 benefit points are assigned to Basecamp properties for the benefit received from the Viewpoint Road maintenance activities. Common areas located throughout the Viewpoint condominiums and Mammoth View project are deemed to receive no benefit from the Viewpoint Road maintenance activities. The following table provides the benefit points assigned to the property location classifications within the District.
Property Location Classification
Viewpoint Road
Access Benefit
Point Assignment
Summit Properties 1.00
Basecamp Properties 0.25
Viewpoint Condominiums 0.65
District-wide Common Areas 0.00
Emergency Access Area Benefit Points Assignment: The emergency access area serves as the secondary emergency access point primarily for the Viewpoint condominiums should residents and emergency vehicles be prevented from accessing the Viewpoint condominiums via Viewpoint Road. A well-maintained and easily accessed emergency corridor will provide a quick and efficient route for emergency vehicles to access the Viewpoint condominium properties. To recognize the benefit from having a year-round maintained emergency access area, Viewpoint condominiums are assigned 1.0 benefit point. While the emergency access area is designed to serve the Viewpoint condominiums it also provides benefit to both the Summit properties and the Basecamp properties. Due to the location of the Summit properties, it would be difficult for large emergency vehicles to access the Summit properties via the emergency access area. However, smaller emergency vehicles could access the Summit properties and provide emergency services, if needed. Further, the Summit properties’ residents can utilize the Mammoth View project’s walkways to vacate the Summit properties area and relocate over to the Basecamp properties area.
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 12 Therefore, to recognize the reduced benefit that the Summit properties receive from the emergency access area compared to the Viewpoint condominiums’ benefit received, 0.75 benefit points have been assigned. There is no vehicular access for smaller emergency vehicles to drive to the Basecamp properties from the emergency access area. However, the Basecamp properties are located at a lower elevation than the Summit properties. This lower elevation would allow for fire services to battle fires and provide emergency assistance from the higher Summit properties position. Further, emergency personnel could access the Basecamp properties on foot from the Summit properties area by utilizing the Mammoth View project’s walkways. To account for this limited benefit received from the emergency access area, the Basecamp properties are assigned 0.25 benefit points. Common areas located throughout the Viewpoint condominiums and Mammoth View project are deemed to receive no benefit from the emergency access area maintenance activities.
The following table provides the benefit points assigned to the property location classifications within the District.
Property Location Classification
Emergency Access
Area Benefit
Point Assignment
Summit Properties 0.75
Basecamp Properties 0.25
Viewpoint Condominiums 1.00
District-wide Common Areas 0.00
Pedestrian Safety Benefit Points Assignment: The maintained District sidewalks are located along Main Street, Mountain Boulevard, and Alpine Circle. People from the Basecamp properties can quickly and conveniently access the sidewalks from several area locations along Mountain Boulevard and Alpine Circle.
To account for the close proximity to the sidewalks and convenience for these properties to access the maintained sidewalks, Basecamp properties are assigned 1.0 benefit point. Access to the sidewalks from the Summit properties requires residents to either travel along Viewpoint Road or first travel the Mammoth View project walkways to access the sidewalks. Since the Summit properties have a greater distance to travel prior to reaching the District sidewalks and have access to the sidewalks via two different points of similar distance, 0.50 benefit points are assigned. Given the location of the District sidewalks and the proximity of those sidewalks from the Viewpoint condominiums, residents will most likely access the sidewalks via Viewpoint Road instead of traveling the additional distance through the Summit properties and Basecamp properties. Therefore, to account for this single access point to the maintained District sidewalks, Viewpoint condominiums are assigned 0.25 benefit points. Common areas located throughout the Viewpoint condominiums and Mammoth View project are deemed to receive no benefit from the sidewalk maintenance activities. The following table provides the benefit points assigned to the property location classifications within the District.

4.4.2 PARCEL FACTORS
The Town of Mammoth Lakes Travel Model Final Report (LSC, 2011) identified trip rates for various land use types throughout the Town. Of those land use types, there are three land use types within the District:
Residential High-Density (MF) – Visitor, Resort Hotel – Visitor, and Retail/Commercial. The Residential High-Density (MF) – Visitor land use type includes all of the Viewpoint condominiums, the Mammoth View townhouse condominium units, and the Mammoth View condominium cabin units. The Resort Hotel – Visitor land use type includes the 54 rooms within Mammoth View hotel. There was not a specific land use type category for restaurants. For purposes of this analysis, the property designated for restaurant use is considered to be Retail/Commercial. According to the report, the three land use types have the following trips per day assigned.
Land Use Type
Trips
per Day Per
Residential High-Density (MF) – Visitor 11.50 Unit
Resort Hotel – Visitor 12.00 Unit
Retail/Commercial 60.20 1,000 Square Feet
Utilizing the Residential High-Density (MF) – Visitor land use type as our base parcel factor of 1.00, the remaining parcel factors can be assigned based upon the approximate proportional relationship to the base parcel factor.

5.2 Cost of Living Inflator
The original assessment formula states each fiscal year, beginning Fiscal Year 2015/16, the maximum allowable assessment amount may be increased by the lesser of 2.00% or the annual calendar year percentage change in the Consumer Price Index published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for all Urban Consumers in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Area (“CPI”). If for any reason the percentage change is negative the maximum allowable assessment would not be decreased by reason of such negative percentage change and would remain at the amount as computed on the previous fiscal year regardless of any CPI adjustment. If operating costs are such that the maximum assessment amount is not needed, the Town would levy only what is needed for that year. In January 2018, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) updated their geographic areas for computing CPI. Previously, the Los Angeles-RiversideOrange County index was made up of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura
Town of Mammoth Lakes
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Engineer’s Report- Benefit Assessment District No. 2014-1 (Mammoth View) 16 counties. The BLS split this index into two areas; one that represents Los Angeles and Orange counties (Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim) and another that represents Riverside and San Bernardino counties (Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario). The Town chose to use the Annual Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim CPI for the calendar year for future calculations.
The annual calendar year percentage change in the CPI applicable to the Fiscal Year 2022/23 assessment is
3.83%. Therefore, the cost-of-living inflator for Fiscal Year 2022/23 is 2.00%.
5.3 Assessment Budget
In order to assess the parcels within the District for the special benefits received from the ongoing District maintenance activities, the general and special benefits must be separated. As previously quantified, the general benefit received from the District maintenance activities is 2.52%. Accordingly, 97.48% of the benefits from the District maintenance activities are considered to provide special benefits to the properties within the District and thus could be subject to assessment therein.
5.3.1 MAXIMUM ASSESSMENT RATE PER SPECIAL BENEFIT POINT The initial maximum assessment rate per special benefit point for the District was established in the Fiscal Year 2014/15 with the maximum assessment of $99.15 per Special Benefit Point.
After applying the annual cost of living inflator, the maximum assessment rate per special benefit point for Fiscal Year 2022/23 is $113.64.
The following table is a historical representation of the maximum assessment rate:
Fiscal Year
Maximum
Assessment Rate
2015/16 $100.48
2016/17 101.39
2017/18 103.31
2018/19 105.37
2019/20 107.48
2020/21 109.63
2021/22 111.41
2022/23 113.64
5.3.2 ACTUAL ASSESSMENT RATE PER SPECIAL BENEFIT POINT
The actual assessment rate per special benefit point is calculated by dividing the total actual cost estimate to be levied in Fiscal Year 2022/23 by the total special benefit points assigned to the parcels in the District.
The following formula provides the actual assessment rate per special benefit point calculation:
Total Actual Cost Estimate to be levied / Total Special Benefit Points = Actual Assessment Rate per Special Benefit Point
$4,500 / 326.41 = $13.78

Council Meeting Date: 6/1/2022
Prepared by: Al Davis, Chief of Police / Andrew Morris, Town Attorney Recommended Motion: The Mammoth Lakes Police Department recommends Town Council Waive the reading and adopt by title only an Ordinance Adopting a Military Equipment Use Policy Pursuant to Government Code Section 7071.
Summary: On September 30, 2021, the Governor of the State of California approved Assembly Bill 481 requiring law enforcement agencies to obtain approval from the applicable governing body (Town Council) to use any equipment defined as military equipment by AB 481 by adopting a military equipment use policy. AB 481 declares the public has a right to know about any funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment as well as a right to participate in the decision to fund, acquire, or use such equipment. The Mammoth Lakes Police Department is committed to adopting internal processes related to the funding, acquisition, and use of defined military equipment as codified by Government Code sections § 7070, § 7071, and § 7072, which can be found here:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displayText.xhtml?lawCode=GOV&division=7.&ti tle=1.&part=&chapter=12.8.&article=
AB 481 outlines fifteen categories of equipment that is defined as “military equipment,” ranging from remote piloted drone or robotic equipment to simunition firearms used only for training purposes. Of these fifteen categories or equipment, the Mammoth Lakes Police Department acquires and has available for use three of the fifteen categories of equipment – two of the three categories of equipment are primarily or solely used for wildlife diversion (Pepperball Launcher and Munitions, Bean-Bag Shotguns and Rounds, Rubber Slugs). The third category of equipment the Mammoth Lakes Police Department will have consists of an unarmed drone.

WHEREAS, the Mammoth Lakes Police Department does intend to purchase an unarmed drone with camera, and has pepperball launchers and munitions, beanbag shotguns and rounds and rubber slugs used for non-lethal wildlife diversion, which are defined as “military equipment” under Government Code Section 7070; and
WHEREAS, Government Code Section 7071 requires the Town Council to adopt by ordinance a “military equipment use policy” in order for the Mammoth Lakes Police Department to, among other things, use its existing “military equipment”, acquire new “military equipment” (including replacements for expired or worn out existing equipment), or collaborating with any other law enforcement agency (such as an agency with a mutual aid agreement with the Mammoth Lakes Police Department) that might use “military equipment” in Mammoth Lakes; and WHEREAS, a military equipment use policy has been available on the Mammoth Lakes Police Department’s website prior to the reading of this ordinance, pursuant to Government Code Section 7071(b); and
