Moreno Valley City Council
March 19, 2024

This report recommends adoption of three resolutions (Attachments 1, 2, and 3), which will initiate the annual process to continue the levy of special assessments on the fiscal year (FY) 202 4/25 property tax roll for Moreno Valley Community Services District (“CSD”) Lighting Maintenance District (LMD) No. 2014 -01. If adopted, the resolutions will 1) initiate proceedings to levy the annual assessments, 2) approve the assessment engineer’s report for the district, and 3) declare the intent to levy assessments for FY 2024/25 and set May 21, 202 4 as the date of the Public Hearing. This is a routine process that is required each year.

The proposed assessments are a continuation of the real property assessments currently levied on the property tax roll. There are no increases proposed to the assessments other than an annual inflationary adjustment, provided the property owners previously approved such adjustment. Revenue received from the assessments partially funds the street lighting services provided by the district.

The Finance Subcommittee reviewed the annual inflationary adjustments proposed to be applied to the maximum assessment rates, if previously authorized by the property owners, at its February 27, 2024 meeting.

DISCUSSION

On May 27, 2014, the CSD adopted its Resolution No. CSD 2014 -08, establishing LMD No. 2014 -01 (“District”) (formerly Zone B, residential street lighting) under the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (the “1972 Act”). Property owners of parcels within the District pay a special assessment as part of their annual property tax bill.

Revenue received from the assessment funds a majority of the Special Benefit cost, as defined in the Assessment Engineer’s Report (“Report”) (Attachment 4), to maintain, service, and operate street lights located within the District.

Parcels within the District are grouped into one of the three benefit zones based on the Special Benefit the property receives from the District improvements. Most of the parcels are located in either Zone 01 or Zone 02 which are separated for administrative purposes. The parcels in Zone 01 are not subject to an annual inflationary adjustment, whereas the parcels in Zone 02 are subject to an annual inflationary adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index. The level of service is substantially identical in the two zones and the ratio of the number of lights to the number of parcels is essentially the same.

Zone 03 includes the 65 residential parcels in Tract 21958 (immediately north of SR 60, east of Nason Street, west of Oliver Street). This tract was developed with a considerably lower street light density (i.e. street lights are spaced farther apart than those found in Zone 01 and Zone 02). As a result, the cost to provide the Special Benefit to the parcels in Tract 21958 is significantly less than the cost of providing the street lighting elsewhere in the District. Therefore, the assessment for parcels in Zone 03 is less than Zones 01 and 02.

I.10
Packet Pg. 193

The assessment cannot be levied on the property tax roll nor can an adjustment be made to the assessment unless the property owners previously approved and the CSD Board authorizes such adjustment. The 1972 Act requires the CSD Board to initiate annual proceedings and conduct a Public Hearing to receive public input on the proposed levy, prior to authorizing such levy each year. The 1972 Act also requires an annual review and evaluation of the District’s revenues and expenditures before assessments can continue to be levied on the property tax roll for the next fiscal year.

The Report includes a description of the improvements within the District, the projected annual expenses, the method of assessment apportionment for each lot or parcel within the District boundaries, and a diagram showing the parcels within the zones that make up the District. The Report also provides an analysis of the District’s annual financial status. It separates and apportions the cost of Special Benefit of the street lighting services to the benefiting properties. The budget in the Report identifies, by zones, the number of parcels within the zones that can be assessed and the proposed assessments to levy on the FY 2024/25 property tax bills.

Costs considered to be of General Benefit, as defined in the Report, are not allowed to be assessed to properties and therefore are apportioned as a General Fund expense.

General Benefit refers to the benefit the general public receives from the street lighting improvements of the District. The projected special assessment revenue and other District revenues (e.g. interest, property taxes, etc.) are not sufficient to cover the full cost of the Special Benefit provided to the respective parcels. Therefore, the Report also identifies a projected budget shortfall. The City’s FY 202 4/25 Proposed Operating Budget includes a General Fund contribution necessary to cover this shortfall and to continue operation of the street lighting program.

Adoption of the proposed resolutions will 1) initiate proceedings for the annual levy of assessments for LMD No. 2014 -01, 2) approve the Report, and 3) declare the intent to levy assessments on the FY 202 4/25 property tax roll and set 6:00 p.m. on May 21, 2024 as the date of the Public Hearing. After the close of the Public Hearing and provided there is not a majority protest, the CSD Board can consider authorizing the recommended assessments to levy on the FY 202 4/25 property tax bill of parcels within LMD No. 2014-01.

Conflict of Interest Analysis

Section 18702.2 of the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) Regulations provides that if a Council Member has a financial interest in a parcel of land (other than a leasehold interest), the Council Member must recuse him or herself from voting on any proposal that would impose, repeal, or modify any taxes, fees, or assessments that apply to the parcel owned by the Council Member. However, there is an exception under Section 18703 of the FPPC Regulations, which provides that if a governmental decision's financial effect on a Council Member’s financial interest is indistinguishable from its effect on the public generally, then the Council Member is not disqualified from participating in the subject decision. In other words, if the Council Member can establish that a significant segment of the public is affected by the decision, and the effect on the I.10
Packet Pg. 194

Council Member’s financial interest is not unique compared to the effect on the public generally, then the subject Council Member may participate in the subject decision.

Section 18703 also includes a provision titled “Specific Rules for Special Circumstances,” which provides in part that there is no potential conflict of interest if the decision involves a proposal to set or adjust the amount of an assessment or tax for broadly provided public services that is applied equally, proportionally, or by the same percentage to the official's interest and all businesses, properties, or individuals subject to the assessment or tax. This exception, however, does not apply if the decision would initially impose the assessment or tax, or determine the boundaries of a property or who is subject to the assessment or tax. Under this exception, a Council Member is only permitted to take part in setting or adjusting the amount of the assessment or tax, once the decisions to implement the assessment or tax, or determine which property or persons that will be subject to the assessment or tax have already been made.

Since the instant situation pertains to recommendations regarding whether to adjust the amounts of various assessments and taxes in a manner that will be the same across the board, which are associated with assessment and special tax districts that have already been established, any Council Member who owns property within any of the subject districts who are subject to payment of the assessments and/or special taxes may vote on the assessments and/or special taxes, whether it is recommended that the amounts remain the same or be increased.

With respect to those Council Members who rent or lease real property within any of the subject districts, there is a different rule which applies that suggests that there may be a potential conflict of interest that requires such Council Members to recuse themselves from voting on the proposed assessments and/or special taxes, whether it is recommended that the amounts remain the same or be increased.

Section 18702.2 of the FPPC Regulations, titled “Materiality Standard: Financial Interest in Real Property” provides that it is reasonably foreseeable that a governmental decision on any real property in which a Council Member has a leasehold interest is material if the governmental decision will increase or decrease the potential rental value of the property. In cases involving any proposed increase in an assessment or special tax that must be paid by the landlord as the property owner, it is foreseeable that the landlord may pass -through any such increase to anyone leasing the property that is subject to the assessment or special tax.

In light of the foregoing, it is recommended that each Council Member who rents property within a particular district that is subject to the taxes and assessments listed in this staff report should recuse themselves from participating in any decision to increase any tax or assessment that may be passed through by the landlord and consequently affect the potential rental value of the property rented by the Council Member. On the other hand, for those who own property within the subject districts may vote on the proposed taxes and assessments since they will be applied equally across the board that presumably will not create a unique effect on the Council Member’s interest.

ALTERNATIVES

1. Adopt the proposed resolutions. Staff recommends this alternative as it is consistent with the 1972 Act and required to initiate the annual process to continue levying the annual assessments on the property tax roll to support the residential street lighting program for FY 2024/25.

2. Do not adopt the proposed resolutions. Staff does not recommend this alternative as it may prevent the City from levying the FY 202 4/25 assessments and collecting funding to support the services of the District as requested by the property owners.

3. Do not adopt the proposed resolutions but rather continue the item to a future Council meeting. Staff does not recommend this alternative as it may prevent the City from meeting Riverside County’s deadline to include assessments on the FY 2024/25 property tax roll.

FISCAL IMPACT

Property owners pay the special assessment as part of their annual property tax bill.

The assessment, including an inflationary adjustment to the maximum assessment where applicable, has been approved through prior proceedings. Funds received for the benefit of the District are restricted and can only be used to fund the services of the District. The recommended assessment rates for FY 202 4/25 are listed in the table below. Parcel specific detail of the proposed maximum and applied assessment is included in the Report as attached and is also available from the City Clerk’s office and accessible from the City’s Website (www.moval.org/sd).

For FY 2024/25, the total projected expenditures for the District are $1,498,648.00. The property assessments are projected to generate $1,008,224.22 in revenue. Other revenue sources to the District (e.g. property tax revenues), and a contribution from the General Fund are programmed to fund the difference between the projected expenditures and assessment revenue.

Third party services include a consultant assessment engineer, special legal counsel, and publication of a legal notice. These costs are included in the City’s FY 202 4/25 Adopted Operating Budget for LMD No. 2014-01 (Fund 5012).

PROJECT: ANNUAL ENGINEER'S REPORT STATEMENT

DISTRICT : LIGHTING MAINTENANCE DISTRICT NO. 2014-01

TO: THE MORENO VALLEY COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT BOAR D OF DIRECTORS

I, Matthew E. Webb, a Professional Civil Engineer (employed by Albert A. Webb Associates and retained through an agreement between my employer and Webb Municipal Finance, LLC), acting on behalf of the Moreno Valley Community Services District (the "CSD"), pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (California Streets and Highways Code Section 22500 et seq. ) (the "1972 Act"), do hereby submit the following:

Each fiscal year, an Engineer's Report ("Report") is prepared and presented to the CSD Board of Directors (the "Board") describing the CSD’s Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 (the "District"), any changes to the District or improvements, an estimate of the costs of the maintenance, operations, and servicing of th e improvements, and the proposed budget and assessments for that fiscal year.

This is the detailed Report for Fiscal Year (FY) 20 24/25 regarding the District and the proposed assessments to be levied on the properties therein to provide ongoing funding for the costs and expenses required to service and maintain lighting improvements assoc iated with and resulting from development of proper ties within the District, in accordance with the proport ional special benefits the properties receive from the improvements. The CSD requested Webb Municipal Finance, LLC to prepare and file the Report for the referenced fiscal year.

A public hearing is held each year before the Board to allow the public an opportunity to hear and be heard regarding the District. After reviewing the Report and considering all public comments and written protests presented at the hearing, the Board may approve the report as submitted or with amendments and can adopt a resolution confirming the assessment. The adoption of such a resolution constitutes the levy of the as sessment and authorizes the CSD to submit levy information t o the Riverside County Auditor/Controller for colle ction on the tax roll.

In November 1996, the voters of California adopted Proposition 218 (the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act"), which has been codified as Articles XIII C and XIII D of the California Constitution. If, in any year, the proposed annual assessments for the District exceed the maximum assessments previously approved in a Proposition 218 proceeding, such an assessment would be considered a new or increased assessment and be subject to a mailed property owner protest ballot proceeding.

This Report and the information contained herein re flect the proposed budget for each of the various services provided by the District and the rates and assessments applicable to those services as they existed at the time of the passage of the Resolution of Intention. Reference is hereby made to the Riverside County Assessor’s maps for a detailed description of the lines and di mensions of the parcels within the District. The un dersigned respectfully submits the enclosed Report as directed by the Board of Directors of the Moreno Valley Community Services District. Please note that Albert A. Webb Associates provides engineering advice and related consulting services. Albert A. Webb Associates is not a regist ered municipal advisor and does not participate in municipal advisory activities, and nothing in this Engineer’s Report is, or should be interpreted to be, municip al advisory services or advice.

Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 iii

INTRODUCTION
The Moreno Valley Community Services District (CSD) was established pursuant to the Community Services District Law (California Government Code Section 61000 et seq.) (the "CSD Law") in 1984 at the time of the incorporation of the City of Moreno Valley (the "City"). The CSD is a dependent special district of the City, and the Moreno Valley City Council serves as the Board of Directors of the CSD. The boundaries of the CSD are the same as those of the City.

Prior to the City’s incorporation, the territory that would become the City of Moreno Valley was unincorporated territory in Riverside County. The County had creat ed County Service Areas (CSA's) to fund and provide certain enhanced services in this territory. The CSD was created so that responsibility for these funding mechanisms (and services) within the territory of the City could be transitioned from CSA's governed by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors to a CSD governed by the Moreno Valley City Council.

The CSD was historically comprised of a number of Zones, each of which provided a specific set of services within a defined portion of the City. Upon establishment of the CSD, Zone B of the CSD provided residential street lighting in certain residential subdivisions. These street l ighting services were funded through a charge on th e annual property tax roll to parcels served by the street lighting.

With the passage of Proposition 218, a number of substantive and procedural requirements were placed on taxes, assessments, and property-related fees imposed by local governments in California. Although referred to by the CSD as "charges", the charges imposed by Zone B of the CSD were categorized under Proposition 218 as r eal property assessments.

Street lighting is a maintenance and operation expe nse for sidewalks and streets. Consequently, the Zo ne B charges imposed prior to November 5, 1996 were authorized under Article XIII D, Section 5(a) of the Constitution, which permitted the continuation of assessments existing prior to the effective date of Proposition 218 so long as those assessments were imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance and operation expenses for sidewalks, streets, sewers, water, flood control, drainage systems or vector control. Consequently, upon the effective date of Proposition 218, these Zone B cha rges continued to be levied annually by the CSD wit hout requiring additional property owner approval.

Subsequent to the adoption of Proposition 218, territories (and associated streetlights) were added to CSD Zone B. When this occurred, the CSD conducted a mail bal lot assessment proceeding with respect to the levy of the Zone B charges as required by Article XIII D, Secti on 4(e) of the Constitution. Beginning in December 1999, the CSD’s practice when balloting for Zone B charges in new territory was generally to present the charge with an incorporated automatic inflation adjustment. This was not done for the previously approved territory nor for much of the territory added to Zone B between November 1996 and December 1999. Therefore, in some parts of CSD Zone B the charge was imposed annually at a level r ate, whereas in other parts of Zone B the maximum c harge was increased each year based on inflation.

In May 2014, the CSD formed the District pursuant t o the 1972 Act. The District was intended to replac e and assume the functions of CSD Zone B. Parcels that ha d been charged an annual Zone B charge for street l ighting services are instead assessed an annual assessment for those services as part of Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01. This transition did not increase the amount paid annually by any property owner and did not change the nature or extent of the street lighting services pr ovided. The assessments levied in connection with t he assessment district in every way serve as a continuation of the charges levied in connection with Zone B.

The improvements, the method of apportionment, and the special benefit assessments described in this Report are based on the improvements and development of properties within the District and represent an estimate of the direct expenditures and incidental expenses tha t will be necessary to maintain, service, and opera te such improvements for FY 2024/25.

Engineer’s Report for FY 2024/25
Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 v

This Report consists of five (5) Sections:

SECTION 1 PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS : Provides a description of the District boundaries and the improvements associated with the District. The District has thre e benefit Zones (hereafter referred to as "Zones"), which are described in more detail in thi s Section as well as in Section 2 (Method of Apportionment). A diagram showing the exterior boun daries of the CSD, the District, and the Zones established within the District, is attached and incorporated herein in Section 4 (District Diagrams). Available plans for the streetlight inst allations, including the City's current standard specifications, are on file with the Public Works Department. The location of each streetlight can be found by using the Moreno Valley Map Viewer located on the City’s website.

SECTION 2 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT : Provides a discussion of the general and special b enefits associated with the overall street lighting improvements provided within the District (Proposition 218 Benefit Analysis). This Section also includes a determinati on of the proportional costs of the special benefits and a separation of costs considered to be of general benefit (and therefore not assessed). The method of calculating each property’ s proportional special benefit and annual assessment using a weighted benefit apportionment is outlined.

SECTION 3 ESTIMATE OF IMPROVEMENT COSTS : Provides an estimate of the annual funding required for the maintenance, servicing, and operation of street lig hting improvements within the District and specifically the costs associated with the improvem ents determined to be of special benefit to parcels within the District. The budget identifies an estimate of anticipated annual expenses to service, maintain, and operate existing street ligh ting improvements within the District for FY 2024/25 including, but not limited to, servicing of the streetlights and related facilities, energy costs, and related incidental expenses authorized by the 1972 Act and pursuant to the provisions of Proposition 218. The budget also identifies the maximum and proposed assessment rates for each Zone of the District and the associated assessment range formula (inflationary adjustment), as applicable.

SECTION 4 DISTRICT DIAGRAMS: Diagrams showing the boundaries of the District an d the Zones therein, including all parcels that receive special benefits from the improvements. Reference is hereby made to the Riverside County Assessor’s maps for a detailed description of the lines and dimensions of each lot and parcel of land within the District.

SECTION 5 ASSESSMENT ROLL : A listing of the proposed assessment amount for each parcel within the District.

The proposed assessment amount for each parcel is based on the parcel's calculated proportional special benefit as outlined in the method of apport ionment and proposed assessment rates established in the District Budget. These assessmen t amounts represent the assessments proposed to be levied and collected on the County Tax Rolls for FY 2024/25.

1. Plans and Specifications

Engineer’s Report for FY 2024/25
Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE DISTRICT
The territory within the District consists of all l ots and parcels of land that receive special benefi ts from the streetlight improvements funded by the District ass essments. The boundaries of the District are compri sed of three benefit Zones. Parcels within the District are identified and grouped into one of the three designated Zones based on the special benefits properties receive fr om the District improvements and the authorized max imum assessments established. The three Zones within the District and the benefits associated with the prop erties therein are described in more detail in Section 2 (Method of Apportionment) of this Report. In addition, the District Diagram in Section 4 of the Report provides a visual representation of the District showing the boundaries of the District Zones.

DISTRICT FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS
The streetlights funded by the District are primari ly low-intensity residential streetlights located w ithin the District, spaced approximately every 125 feet withi n a subdivision. Generally, high-intensity lights o utside the subdivisions are funded through other revenue sources and are not part of the District assessments.

Southern California Edison (SCE) provides electrici ty to the streetlights owned by the City and the Ci ty is responsible for providing maintenance and servicing of the light fixtures and poles. All of the City-o wned streetlights have been retrofitted to Light Emitting Diode (LED) fixtures. LED bulbs are more energy efficient and are expected to have a longer life span than the high-pressure sodium vapor bulbs they replaced.

The maintenance, operation, and servicing of the District’s lighting improvements generally include the furnishing of labor, materials, equipment, and electricity for the ordinary and usual maintenance, operation, and servicing of streetlights within the public right-of-ways and easements dedicated to the City. These activities include, but are not limited to:
• Furnishing of electric current or other illuminating agent. • Maintenance, repair, and replacement of light poles and fixtures, including changing light bulbs, pain ting, photoelectric cell repair or replacement, and repai ring damage cause by accidents, vandalism, time, an d weather.
• Electrical conduit and pull-box repair and replacement due to damage by construction and weather. • Monitoring of the Underground Service Alert (USA) n etwork, identification of proposed excavation in th e vicinity of lighting electrical conduits, and marking the location of those underground conduits in the field to prevent damage by excavation.
• Service, maintenance, repair, and replacement inclu ding replacing worn out electrical components and repairing damage due to accidents, vandalism, and weather. • Periodic repair and rehabilitation of the street lighting system including replacement of old equipment with new or reconditioned equipment; and repair, removal or replacement of related equipment as required including, but not limited to, lighting fixtures, p oles, meters, conduits, electrical cable, and reloc ation of streetlight facilities as necessary, including the purchase and installation of related equipment and facilities. • Streetlight inventory database, pole numbering, and mapping to establish the number of streetlights th at must be maintained, as well as the condition and lo cation of these streetlights as part of an effectiv e maintenance program.
• Responding to citizen inquiries regarding street lighting.

2. Method of Apportionment

Engineer’s Report for FY 2024/25
Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 2 The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements, including the acquisition, con struction, installation, and servicing of street li ghting improvements and related facilities. The 1972 Act r equires that the cost of these improvements be levi ed according to benefit rather than assessed value.

Section 22573 defines the net amount to be assessed as follows:
"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." Section 22574 provides for zones as follows:
"The diagram and assessment may classify various areas within an assessment district into different zones where, by reason of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive differing degrees of benefit from the improvements. A zone shall consist of all territory which will receive substantially the same degree of benefit from the improvements." The formulas used for calculating assessments and t he designation of zones herein reflect the composit ion of parcels within the District and the improvements and activities to be provided and have been designed to fairly apportion the cost of providing those improvements based on a determination of the proportional special benefits to each parcel, consistent with the requirements of the 1972 Act and the provisions of Proposition 218 and Article XIII D of the California Constitution.

PROPOSITION 218 BENEFIT ANALYSIS
The costs of the improvements for FY 2024/25 have been identified and allocated to properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements provided by the District and for which properties are asses sed are public street lighting improvements. These improvem ents generally were installed in connection with th e development of the properties within the District and were required by the City as a condition of development.

Article XIII D Section 2(d) defines District as follows:
"District" means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property-related service.

Article XIII D Section 2(i) defines Special Benefit as follows:
"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."
Article XIII D Section 4(a) defines proportional special benefit assessments as follows:

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 wi ll 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 a 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.

2. Method of Apportionment

Engineer’s Report for FY 2024/25
Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 3 BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Special Benefit
The street lighting in the District is primarily lo w-intensity street lighting that is useful for illu minating the sidewalks and parking lanes in the District. This lighting is distinct from the high-intensity lights installed on major streets which serve in part to enhance traffic safe ty. Residential streetlights are of lower intensity , but more closely spaced, than the high-intensity streetlights. These sorts of low-level, low-intensity residential streetlights provide three main special benefits: (i) residentia l security benefit, (ii) pedestrian safety benefit, and (iii) parkway/roadway egress benefit. Because traffic in the District is largely limited to local traffic co nsisting of residents and residents’ guests traveling to and from property within the District, it is reasonable to assume that essentially all pedestrians and parking vehicles in the lit areas will, after dark, be directly associ ated with an assessed dwelling unit.

With the exception of the development that comprise s Zone 03 (discussed below), the streetlights withi n the District are consistent with the City’s typical intensity and spacing standards for residential lighting at the time of development and each parcel to be assessed is served directly by the system of streetlights providing appropriate lighting within the subdivision. Consequently, we conclude that each residential parcel within the District receives substantially similar benefit from the improvements regardless of their location within the District. Furthermore, the cost of maintaining and operating each light is substantially the same, regardless of the location of the light within the District.

General Benefit
Approximately 5% of the streetlights funded by the District are located at the perimeter/entryway of a residential development. These perimeter/entryway lights, in contrast to the remainder of the lights funded by the District, arguably provide some illumination that extends beyond the boundaries of the developments and parcels being assessed within the District, that enhances the saf ety of members of the public unassociated with an a ssessed parcel, that illuminates traffic or parking on majo r thoroughfares, or that otherwise provides service s to the general public. Although, in general, these streetl ights exist solely because of the development of as sessed parcels, and although the primary purpose of these lights is to provide illumination benefiting assessed parcels, they may provide some level of general benefit in addition to the special benefits provided to the assessed parcels.

We estimate that this general benefit constitutes not more than 25% of the total benefit from perimeter/entryway lights. As 25% of the benefit from 5% of the lights constitutes not more than 2% of the total benefit from all improvements operated and maintained by the Distric t, we determine that the total general benefit from operation and maintenance activities will not exceed 2% of operations and maintenance costs.

2. Method of Apportionment

Engineer’s Report for FY 2024/25
Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 4 ZONES OF BENEFIT
In an effort to ensure an appropriate allocation of the estimated annual cost to provide the District improvements based on proportional special benefits, this District was established with benefit Zones as authorized pursuant to Chapter 1 Article 4, Section 22574 of the 1972 Act:
"The diagram and assessment may classify various areas within an assessment district into different zones where, by reason of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive differing degrees of benefit from the improvements. A zone shall consist of all territory which will receive substantially the same degree of benefit from the improvements." There are three Zones within the District. The bulk of the parcels in the District are located in eith er Zone 01 or Zone 02. These Zones are defined separately, largel y for administrative purpose, as the level of servi ce is substantially identical in the two Zones and the ra tio of the number of lights to the number of parcel s is substantially the same. Zone 01 consists of those p arcels that, as a result of Proposition 218, are su bject to an assessment that is not annually adjusted for inflation. Zone 02 consists of those parcels for which the assessment can be adjusted annually for inflation.

Zone 03 consists of 65 residential parcels located in Tract 21958. This tract is unique within the District because it was developed with a substantially lower streetligh t density (streetlights are spaced farther apart th an the residential streetlights typically found in the residential tracts of Zone 01 and Zone 02). As a result, the parcels in Tract 21958 generally receive less lighting than pa rcels elsewhere in the District, and the per parcel cost of providing streetlight special benefits to Tract 21958 parcels is substantially less than the cost of providing benefits elsewhere in the District.

For FY 2024/25:
• Zone 01 includes 32,708 parcels and has 7,086 streetlights. • Zone 02 includes 7,193 parcels and has 1,558 streetlights. • Zone 03 includes 65 parcels and has 3 streetlights.

The District budget, incorporated herein under Section 3 of this Report, provides a summary of the total estimated cost of providing the street lighting improvements and the allocation of those costs between the three Zones (which is based on the number of lights in each Zone) as well as those costs that are considered general benefit.

Details regarding the location and extent of the st reet lighting improvements within the District and the Zones therein are on file in the Public Works Department, and by reference these documents are made part of this Report. A diagram showing the boundaries of the three Zones outlined above is attached and incorporated herein under Section 4 (District Diagrams) of this Report.

2. Method of Apportionment

Engineer’s Report for FY 2024/25
Moreno Valley Community Services District Lighting Maintenance District No. 2014-01 5 ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The method of apportionment for this District calcu lates the receipt of special benefit from the respe ctive improvements based on the land use of the parcels.

Equivalent Benefit Unit Application
To proportionally allocate special benefit to each parcel, it is necessary to correlate each property’s proportional benefit to other properties that benefit from the improvements and services being funded. In order to do this, the assessment methodology assigns each parcel a number of Equivalent Benefit Units (EBUs) based on its land use.

One EBU is defined as the special benefit allocable to a single-family residential home. In each case, a parcel is only allocated EBUs in a fiscal year if the streetlights serving the parcel (or serving the perimeter of the complex in the case of apartments, condominiums, etc.) has been accepted by the City or will be accepted by th e City during the upcoming fiscal year.

Not all parcels are assessed one EBU. EBUs are assi gned based on the benefit each parcel receives, usi ng the Assessment Methodology outlined below (e.g., Condos may be assigned an EBU less than one).

Single-Family Residential: This land use is defined as a fully subdivided single-family residential home site with or without a structure. This land use is assigned 1.0 EBU per lot or parcel.

Condominium Residential: This land use is defined as a fully subdivided condominium residential unit assigned its own PIN by the County. EBUs are assigned to these parcels by multiplying the overall acreage of the condominium development by 4 (the typical number of single-family homes in an acre of typical development), and then dividing the result by the number of condominium units/parcels in the development.

Multi-Family Residential and Mobile Home Parks : This land use classification identifies properties that are used for residential purposes and contain more than one residential unit per lot or parcel. The proportiona l special benefit and EBUs for these parcels is based on acreage, at 4.0 EBUs per acre.

Vacant Parcels : This land use classification identifies properties that are undeveloped and not fully subdivided but are served by a streetlight improvement. This land use is assigned 1.0 EBU per lot or parcel.

Approved Single-Family Residential: This land use is defined as a fully subdivided sin gle-family residential home site with or without a structure, but the streetlights to be installed as part of the development have not yet been installed and are not anticipated to come online th is fiscal year. Generally, these parcels were annex ed to the District in anticipation of the property being developed and streetlights being installed, but until such time that the streetlights are to be installed, these lots or parcels will not be assessed and are assigned 0.0 EBU.

Planned Residential Development : This land use is defined as a property that is cur rently considered vacant or undeveloped land that is to be subdivided into a kn own number of residential lots, but the streetlight s to be installed as part of the development have not yet been installed and are not anticipated to come online this fiscal year. Generally, these parcels were annexed to the District in anticipation of the property being deve loped and streetlights being installed, but that has not yet occurred. Until such time as the streetlights are t o be installed, these lots or parcels will not be assessed and are assigned 0.0 EBU.

Exempt : This classification means any lot or parcel that i s not considered to specially benefit directly from improvements. This classification includes, but is not limited to, areas of public streets, private streets and other I.10.d

These types of parcels of land (similar to the improvements) are typically the result of property development rather than the direct cause of development and have little or no need for the i mprovements. These types of properties may or may n ot be assigned a PIN by the County.

Also exempt from assessment are lots that are identified as common areas (properties for which the surrounding residential parcels have a shared interest); bifurcated lots; and small parcels vacated by the County or similar sliver parcels that cannot be developed independent of an adjacent parcel. These types of parcels are general ly not separately assessed because they are functionally a part of another parcel that is assessed for its own benefit and the benefit of the associated parcel.

CALCULATION OF ASSESSMENTS
An assessment amount per EBU is calculated by:

Taking the "Total Annual Expenses" (total budgeted costs) and subtracting the proportional "General Be nefit Costs" which establishes the "Total Special Benefit Costs".

Total Amount Expenses - General Benefit Costs = Total Special Benefit Costs To the resulting "Total Special Benefit Costs", var ious "Other Available Funding" adjustments are appl ied. For further information please reference line items in the budget on the following page under "Other Avail able Funding."
These adjustments to the Total Special Benefit Costs result in the "Net Special Benefit Assessment".

Total Special Benefit Costs +/- Other Available Funding = Net Special Benefit Assessment The amount identified as the "Net Special Benefit A ssessment" is divided by the Total EBUs of parcels to be Assessed to establish the "Assessment Rate" or "Assessment per EBU" for the fiscal year. The Assessment Rate is then applied to each parcel's individual EBU to calculate the parcel's proportionate special benefit and assessment obligation for the improvements.

Net Special Benefit Assessment / Total EBU (to be Assessed) = Assessment per EBU

Zone 01 $23.00 $23.00 per EBU
Zone 02 a $35.25 $35.25 per EBU
Zone 03 $6.00 $6.00 per EBU
a The Maximum Assessment Rate includes an inflation ary adjustment previously balloted and approved by the property owners.

Note that for FY 2024/25 there are:
• 32,798 EBUs in Zone 01 sharing $1,203,491.80 in proportional special benefit. • 7,193 EBUs in Zone 02 sharing $264,666.66 in proportional special benefit. • 65 EBUs in Zone 03 sharing $509.54 in proportional special benefit.

ANNUAL INFLATIONARY ADJUSTMENT (ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA) FOR ZONE 02 Each year, the Board of Directors considers whether the Annual Assessment per EBU should be set at the Maximum Assessment Rate, as previously approved by the property owners, or if a lower assessment rate per EBU should be applied based on the budgeted costs.

The Maximum Assessment Rate per EBU is calculated a nnually using the percentage change for the previou s calendar year in the All Urban Consumers Consumer Price Index, (CPI or "Index"), as published by the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Los A ngeles-Long Beach-Anaheim Region

1. The inflation adjustment
from December 2022 to December 2023 is 3.47%.

1 In January 2018, the Bureau of Labor Statistics int roduced a new geographic area sample for the Consum er Price Index (CPI). Riverside, CA, which was previously included in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County, CA MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area), is now included in a separate CBSA (Core Based Statistical Area) and is named Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario; this Index started at 100.000. The Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County, CA index was renamed "Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim". Because the Index approved by the property owners was the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County index, and it was renamed and not eliminated, CSD General Counsel determined the District would continue to use the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim index.

This inclusion aims to foster a sense of unity and vitality, inviting residents to connect with the mural on a personal level.

Incorporating native flora and fauna of Moreno Valley, such as elderberry, deer, sunflower, cactus, petroglyphs, mountain lion, and mammoth, the mural pays homage to the region's biodiversity and cultural significance. Additionally, samples of inspiration were drawn from local landmarks and cultural symbols, infusing the artwork with a sense of place and identity.

The mural features soccer and football motifs, symbolizing the community's love for sports and promoting an active lifestyle. Vibrant colors create a dynamic and energetic visual narrative inspired by Moreno Valley, enhancing the park's atmosphere with a lively and engaging mural.

Furthermore, the artwork showcases local flora and fauna, including the Moreno Valley "M" on Box Springs Mountain, yucca, black sage, sunflower, western fence lizard, bobcat, and desert cottontail. By showcasing these elements, the mural celebrates the beauty and diversity of Moreno Valley's natural environment, inviting park visitors to embrace the spirit of athleticism and environmental stewardship.

Materials and Finishing: The mural will be created using high-quality, weather-resistant acrylic paints to ensure longevity and durability. The colors chosen will be vibrant and long-lasting, reflecting the vitality of the local community and the natural surroundings. Logos and words used will include the Moreno Valley "M" emblem, along with inspirational phrases promoting community, wellness, and environmental conservation.

Once completed, the mural will be sealed with a protective finish to safeguard against weathering and vandalism, ensuring its beauty endures for years to come. This sealant will also enhance the colors and textures of the artwork, providing a polished and professional finish that enhances the overall aesthetic of the park environment.

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Elements

Creation & Existence

• The Department of Housing and Urban Development is the Federal agency responsible for national policy and programs that address America's housing needs, that improve and develop the Nation's communities, and enforce fair housing laws. HUD's business is helping create a decent home and suitable living environment for all Americans
• Based on the minibus bill signed by the President on March 8, 2024, HUD spending, provides gross appropriations of $81.4 billion, a $10.9 billion (15.4%) increase from FY 2023, $8.11 billion (11.1%) more than the FY 2024 request, $9.91 billion (13.9%) more than the FY 2024 House bill and $8.12 billion more than the Senate FY 2024 bill
• HUD’s Major Programs and Primary Programs are:
o Mortgage and loan insurance through the Federal Housing Administration o Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) to help communities with economic development, job opportunities and housing rehabilitation o HOME Investment Partnership Act block grants to develop and support affordable housing for low-income residents
o Rental assistance in the form of Section 8 certificates or vouchers for low - income households
o Public or subsidized housing for low-income individuals and families o Homeless assistance provided through local communities and faith -based and other nonprofit organizations
o Fair housing public education and enforcement
o County Continuum of Care Program
▪ The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program Competition occurs annually. Each Fiscal Year (FY) Competition process begins with Registration of CoCs by CoC designated Collaborative Applicants, K.2
Packet Pg. 286

followed by the CoC’s review of Grant Inventory Worksheets (GIW) and the release of the CoC Program NOFO. The FY Competition ends when the final funding announcement is released by HUD ▪ HUD announced $3.2 billion in FY 2023 Continuum of Care (CoC) Competition Awards to CoC grant recipients – including $136 million in funding for Youth Homelessness Demonstration (YHDP) renewal and replacement projects, and $57 million in funding for Domestic Violence (DV) Bonus projects

Riverside County Continuum of Care Elements

Creation & Existence

• The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) initiated Continuums of Care (CoCs) which span all 50 states and 6 United States territories
• In 1993 HUD established the Continuum of Care (CoC) system, which Congress codified into law by amending the McKinney-Vento Act in 2009 • CoCs are charged with promoting and implementing evidence -based, best, promising, and emerging practices for preventing and ending homelessness • Among other things, the CoC system promotes the goal of ending homelessness, in part by providing funding for efforts by nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness
• CoC works with a group of organizations —such as homeless service providers, cities, and counties —and individuals organized to carry out the goal of ending homelessness within a specified geographic area. HUD envisioned that CoCs would function as local networks that plan and coordinate funding for services and housing
• California has 44 CoCs that cover its 58 counties
• Although HUD oversees multiple programs that provide homeless assistance, only one of these —the CoC Program —provides funds to entities that administer homeless service projects
• CoCs’ collaborative applicants submit their ranked lists of project applications annually for funding to HUD, which then awards funds for projects primarily for the four program categories

1. Permanent housing –Recipients may use funds to provide community - based housing in which formerly homeless individuals and families live as independently as possible without a designated length of stay

2. Transitional housing–Recipients may use funds to provide individuals and families with a place to stay for up to two years until they find permanent housing

3. Supportive services only –Recipients may use funds to conduct outreach to sheltered and unsheltered persons and families, to link clients with housing or other necessary services, and to provide support

4. HMIS–Recipients may use funds for costs related to establishing, operating, and customizing a CoC’s HMIS
K.2
Packet Pg. 287

Goals & Objectives

• The Housing and Workforce Solutions (HWS) Department’s CoC Division’s primary purpose is to develop and maintain an effective county -wide Continuum of Care. The Continuum of Care oversees our community's plan to organize and deliver supportive social services, including housing options, which meet the specific needs of homeless individuals and families. Ultimately, the goal of the Continuum is to move homeless people toward stable housing and maximum self-sufficiency
• Some of the CoC’s activities include the annual HUD Continuum of Care Homeless Point in Time Count, a survey of homeless individuals in the whole county
• The CoC provides homeless assistance by leveraging funding needed through the HUD Consolidated Application, this provides collaboration between providers of housing and homeless assistance programs and other federal programs. The CoC is a network of private and public sector homeless service providers, designed to promote community -wide planning and the strategic use of resources addressing homelessness. The CoC seeks to improve coordination and integration with mainstream resources and other community programs for people who are experiencing or are at risk of becoming homeless. The CoC seeks to improve and expand the collection of data countywide, develop performance measurements, and allows for each community to tailor its program to the particular strengths and challenges within that community. The goal is to assist people to achieve stability through self-sufficiency • CoC Membership requirements are:
o Any interested stakeholder within the County of Riverside may request to become a member of the CoC. There are two forms of membership, membership of an organization or agency and membership as an individual. CoC members obtain and retain voting privileges through attendance and participation in accordance with established policies o To maintain membership in good standing, voting members are required to attend fifty percent plus one (50% +1) CoC meetings per year (not including standing committee meetings and other events). If an agency misses two consecutive CoC meetings, they rescind their voting privileges; voting privileges can be re-established after the agency attends three consecutive CoC meetings. If an agency’s appointed representatives are unable to attend the CoC meeting, a proxy letter should be obtained from the Collabora tive Applicant (HHPWS CoC Division). Paid employees/volunteers of a voting agency, who are the designated representative for that agency, are not allowed to also join the CoC as an individual member. Each agency or individual must select a delegate that will vote for the organization. An Individual identified as the delegate for an agency cannot hold a dual membership as a public member. Each agency or organization shall also select an alternate delegate who will vote in the absence of the assigned voting delegate. The designation of the delegate and alternate for an agency/organization K.2
Packet Pg. 288

should be submitted in writing to the CoC Chair
o The City of Moreno Valley is an active member and the Financial Resources Division of the Financial & Management Services Department is tasked with attending these meetings

Example of Programs

• The CoC manages a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) which is a local information technology system used to collect client -level data and data on the provision of housing and services to homeless individuals and families and persons at risk of homelessness
• The Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) was created in 1983 to supplement and expand the work of local social service agencies, both nonprofit and governmental, in an effort to help people with economic emergencies. During its years of operation, the program disbursed over $3.3 billion. The award amount each county receives is based on the total number of unemployed as compared to the total number of unemployed in all qualifying jurisdictions. A list of the CoC’s Emergency Shelters can be found using the following link o https://rivcohhpws.org/sites/g/files/aldnop131/files/cocdocumnets/Emerge ncy%20Shelters%20and%20Services%20in%20Riverside%20County-.pdf o Also, see attachment 1 to this staff report
• The CoC has an Emergency Housing Vouchers (EHV) program and provides priority for those applicants referred from CoC funded Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH), Rapid Rehousing (RRH) Projects, and Victims of Domestic Violence (DV), Human Trafficking, and/or Sexual Assault

Funding Services

• The Riverside County CoC has a network of more than 140 private and public sector organizations and homeless service providers designed to promote community-wide planning and the strategic use of resources to address homelessness. The CoC strives to improve coordination and integration with mainstream resources and other community programs for people who are experiencing or are at -risk of becoming homeless and to move homeless people toward stable housing and maximum self -sufficiency. The Continuum of Care Division also serves as the Administrative Entity responsible for awarding State Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG), Homeless Emergency Aid Program (HEAP), California Emergency Solutions and Housing (CESH) funds and other State Housing Programs to eligible service providers within the CoC Service Area(s)

Riverside County CoC - Homeless Point-In-Time Count (HPITC)

• Data collected during the annual HPITC reflect Riverside County's homeless population at one point in time and is a requirement for the CoC to: 1) continue receiving federal funding for homeless assistance programs; 2) develop strategies to end homelessness; 3) understand and define the homeless population's characteristics and specific needs to improve models of care and wrap around services; 4) help individuals and families experiencing homelessness who are in need
• The last annual count was the 2023 Point -in-Time (PIT) Count, conducted on January 25, 2023 is used to demonstrate the need for services, resource planning, and to inform the community about homelessness • The results of the last HPITC, the City of Moreno Valley had 77 Unsheltered individuals (56 were interviewed and 21 were observed). Below is the information that was provided to Council during the November 2023 Study Session

ALTERNATIVES

1. Provide direction as stated recommended action item 1 as presented in this report.

Or

2. Provide alternate direction as stated in the recommended action item 2 presented in this report.

FISCAL IMPACT

Any fiscal impact is dependent on the direction of the Council to create Ad Hoc Policy Subcommittee or Committee. If created, the budget to run the Ad Hoc Policy Subcommittee or Committee would need to be appropriated.

Also, a determination of any future funding requests from the Ad Hoc Subcommittee or Committee to the entire Council is unknown and cannot be determined at this time.

I would like to remind Council that if a shelter is requested the cost to build one could be in the tens of millions of dollars depending on the number of bed capacity. Operation could run in the few millions of dollars (annually) and would need a partnership with an agency that has the experience in providing all of the wrap around services needed.

An example of the cost can be compared to the Corona Harrison Shelter/Navigation Center, which costs $3.3 million for the renovation costs of the previously shuttered emergency shelter, which can only house 35 unsheltered individuals for up to 180 days.
