The Recommended Operating Reserve target is fifty percent (50%) of the projected expenditures. Maintaining a fully funded Operating Reserve eliminates the need for the City to transfer funds from non-District accounts to pay for operational expenses during the first half of the fiscal year and provides the District with sufficient funds to address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.
The purpose of collecting and holding funds in a Capital Reserve is so that when improvements need to be replaced or expenditures that are greater than can be conveniently raised from a single year’s assessment, funds are available so that the District can respond and address the need promptly.

LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 7 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 12 PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENTS
This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District.
The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones.
The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance, and servicing of public lights, landscaping, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, the 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District was established. The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of the District. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services to the properties within the boundaries of the District. The apportioning of special benefit is a twostep process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.
Packet Page 398
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 7 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 13 In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of the District's improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements. The identified special benefits conferred to property from the improvements can be summarized as follows:
• Improved aesthetics:
o Well-maintained and attractive landscaping enhances the overall appearance and desirability of the area, making it visually appealing to property owners and visitors.
• Increased property values:
o Attractive and well-maintained landscaping can increase the desirability of nearby properties, potentially leading to higher property values. • Safety:
o Landscaping helps calm traffic and reduce speeds, creating a safer environment for people traveling to and from properties within the District. It also acts as a physical buffer between roadways and properties within the District.
• Noise reduction:
o Trees and plants help absorb traffic noise and create a buffer between the road and nearby properties, reducing noise levels and creating a more peaceful environment.
• Reduced pollution:
o Trees and plants aid in filtering pollutants from the air, improving air quality and creating a healthier environment for properties in proximity to the landscape.
These benefits, when applied to property in the District, specifically increase the utility of the property within the District. For example, the assessments provide funding to maintain the landscaping that improves safety and access to the property and provides visual and environmental benefits to the properties within the District. Such improved and wellmaintained public facilities enhance the overall usability, quality, desirability, and safety of the properties.
Packet Page 399
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 7 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 14 Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services. Therefore, the City and Engineer at the time of formation determined the costs of maintaining landscaping was to be spread proportionately based on each property’s gross square footage of the buildings, or on a building square footage basis. Costs will be apportioned to any undeveloped or vacant parcels based on the maximum building size permitted by the City on the parcel. This methodology distributes assessments in proportion to the estimated special benefit conferred to property and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City proposes to collect the maximum assessment revenue from the assessable parcels located in the District, which amounts to $0.187 per building square foot to be levied. A listing of each assessable parcel and their proposed Fiscal Year 2024- 25 assessment is on the Assessment Roll in Part E of this Report.
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 rightsof-ways, public greenbelts, and public parkways (all of which are typically not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the County). Also exempted from the assessment would be public agency owned property, utility rights-of-ways, common areas (such as in condominium complexes or those that are owned by a Homeowner’s or Property Owner’s Association), and any other property that is deemed to be unable to develop by the City.
These types of parcels do not benefit from the improvements.
Appeals and Interpretations
Any property owner who feels that the assessment levied on the subject property is in error because of incorrect information being used to apply the foregoing method of assessment, may file a written appeal with City Engineer or his or her designee. Any such appeal is limited to correction of an assessment during the then current or, if before July 1, the upcoming fiscal year. Upon the filing of any such appeal, the City Engineer or his or her designee will promptly review the appeal and any information provided by the property owner. If the City Engineer or his or her designee finds that the assessment should be modified, the appropriate changes shall be made to the assessment roll. If any such changes are approved after the assessment roll has been filed with the County for collection, the City Engineer or his or her designee is authorized to refund to the property owner the amount of any approved reduction. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the City Engineer or her or his designee may refer their appeal to the City Council and the decision of the City Council shall be final.

CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 11 INTRODUCTION
1 SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The City of Newark (“City”) levies and collects special assessments on parcels within the City of Newark Landscaping and Lighting District No. 11 (“District”) to maintain public improvements. The District was formed to provide a dedicated source of funding for the ongoing maintenance of median-landscape improvements within and adjacent to the boundaries of the District.
The assessments and method of apportionment described in this Report utilize commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and have been calculated and proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits received as approved by the City Council at the time the District was formed.
The District generally consists of those properties south of Interstate 880, west of Elmwood Avenue and Blackwood Drive, north of Cedar Boulevard and those properties along and north of Lake Boulevard, and east of State Route 84. A reduced copy of the Assessment Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District is provided in Part C of this Report.
Compliance with the California Constitution
Assessments are levied annually within the District pursuant to the 1972 Act. All assessments described in this Report and approved by the City Council are prepared in accordance with the 1972 Act and are compliant with the provisions of the California Constitution Article XIIID (“Article XIIID”), which was enacted with the passage of Proposition 218 in November 1996. Pursuant to Article XIIID Section 5, certain existing assessments are exempt from the substantive and procedural requirements of Article XIIID Section 4. Specifically, Article XIIID Section 5(a) exempted:
“Any assessment imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance and operation expenses for sidewalks, streets, sewers, water, flood control, drainage systems or vector control. Subsequent increases in such assessments shall be subject to the procedures and approval process set forth in Section 4.”
The City determined the annual assessments originally established for the District were for the maintenance and operation of landscape and medians within the public street rights-ofway. As such, pursuant to Article XIIID Section 5(a), the pre–existing assessment amount has been exempted from the procedural requirements of Article XIIID Section 4 since the amount of the assessment has not increased since the passage of Proposition 218.
Any future increase in the assessment rate or substantial changes in the services provided would require that the District be brought into compliance with all the requirements of Article XIIID and would require the approval of the property owners subject to the assessment based upon a mailed ballot which would be sent to each property owner.

LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 11 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 12 PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENTS
This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District.
The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones.
The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of public lights, landscaping, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, the 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District was established.
The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of the District. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services to the properties within the boundaries of the District. The apportioning of special benefit is a two-step process:
the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 11 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 13 In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of the District's improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements.
The identified special benefits conferred to property from the median landscape improvements can be summarized as follows:
• Improved aesthetics:
o Well-maintained and attractive median landscaping enhances the overall appearance and desirability of the area, making it visually appealing to property owners and visitors.
• Increased property values:
o Attractive and well-maintained median landscaping can increase the desirability of nearby properties, potentially leading to higher property values. • Safety:
o Median landscaping helps calm traffic and reduce speeds, creating a safer environment for people traveling to and from properties in the District. It also acts as a physical buffer between roadways and properties within the District. • Noise reduction:
o Trees and plants help absorb traffic noise and create a buffer between the road and nearby properties, reducing noise levels and creating a more peaceful environment.
• Reduced pollution:
o Trees and plants aid in filtering pollutants from the air, improving air quality and creating a healthier environment for properties in proximity to the landscape.
These benefits, when applied to property in the District, specifically increase the utility of the property within the District. For example, the assessments provide funding to maintain the median landscaping that improves safety and provides visual and environmental benefits to the properties within the District. Such improved and well-maintained public facilities enhance the overall usability, quality, desirability, and safety of the properties.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 11 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 14 Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services.
Therefore, the City and Engineer of Work at the time of formation determined that each parcel within the boundaries of the District receives a similar benefit from the improvements. Therefore, the most appropriate method of apportioning costs was determined to be spreading all District costs equally to each parcel in the District. This methodology is commonly used to distribute assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City proposes to collect the maximum assessment revenue from the assessable parcels located in the District, which amounts to $25.00 per parcel to be levied. A listing of each assessable parcel and their proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessment is on the Assessment Roll in Part E of this Report.
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 (all of which are typically not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the County). Also exempted from the assessment would be public agency owned property, utility rights-of-ways, common areas (such as in condominium complexes or those that are owned by a Homeowner’s or Property Owner’s Association), and any other property that is deemed to be unable to develop by the City. These types of parcels do not benefit from the improvements.
Appeals and Interpretations
Any property owner who feels that the assessment levied on the subject property is in error because of incorrect information being used to apply the foregoing method of assessment, may file a written appeal with City Engineer or his or her designee. Any such appeal is limited to correction of an assessment during the then current or, if before July 1, the upcoming fiscal year. Upon the filing of any such appeal, the City Engineer or his or her designee will promptly review the appeal and any information provided by the property owner. If the City Engineer or his or her designee finds that the assessment should be modified, the appropriate changes shall be made to the assessment roll. If any such changes are approved after the assessment roll has been filed with the County for collection, the City Engineer or his or her designee is authorized to refund to the property owner the amount of any approved reduction. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the City Engineer or her or his designee may refer their appeal to the City Council and the decision of the City Council shall be final.

CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 15 INTRODUCTION
1 SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The City of Newark (“City”) levies and collects special assessments on parcels within the City of Newark Landscaping and Lighting District No. 15 (“District”) to maintain public improvements. The District was formed to provide a dedicated source of funding for the ongoing maintenance of median-landscape improvements benefiting parcels within the boundaries of the District.
The assessments and method of apportionment described in this Report utilize commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and have been calculated and proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits received as approved by the City Council at the time the District was formed.
The District generally consists of those properties along and fronting Iris Court. A reduced copy of the Assessment Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District is provided in Part C of this Report.
Compliance with the California Constitution
Assessments are levied annually within the District pursuant to the 1972 Act. All assessments described in this Report and approved by the City Council are prepared in accordance with the 1972 Act and are compliant with the provisions of the California Constitution Article XIIID (“Article XIIID”), which was enacted with the passage of Proposition 218 in November 1996. Pursuant to Article XIIID Section 5, certain existing assessments are exempt from the substantive and procedural requirements of Article XIIID Section 4. Specifically, Article XIIID Section 5(b) exempted:
“Any assessment imposed pursuant to a petition signed by the persons owning all of the parcels subject to the assessment at the time the assessment is initially imposed. Subsequent increases in such assessment shall be subject to the procedures and approval process set forth in Section 4.” The City determined that the annual assessments originally established for the District were established by a petition signed by the persons owning all the parcels subject to the assessment at the time the assessment was originally proposed. As such, pursuant to Article XIIID Section 5(b), the pre–existing assessment amount has been exempted from the procedural requirements of Article XIIID Section 4 since the amount of the assessment has not increased since the passage of Proposition 218.
Any future increase in the assessment rate or substantial changes in the services provided would require that the District be brought into compliance with all the requirements of Article XIIID and would require the approval of the property owners subject to the assessment based upon a mailed ballot which would be sent to each property owner.

LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 15 ESTIMATE OF COSTS 9 The purpose of the various reserves is to ensure the District will have funds available for cashflow purposes and to repair or reconstruct the improvements that are the responsibility of the District.
The Recommended Operating Reserve target is fifty percent (50%) of the projected expenditures. Maintaining a fully funded Operating Reserve eliminates the need for the City to transfer funds from non-District accounts to pay for operational expenses during the first half of the fiscal year and provides the District with sufficient funds to address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.
The purpose of collecting and holding funds in a Capital Reserve is so that when improvements need to be replaced or expenditures are greater than can be conveniently raised from a single year’s assessment, funds are available so that the District can respond and address the need promptly.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 15 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 12 PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENTS
This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District.
The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones.
The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of public lights, landscaping, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, the 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District was established. The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of the District. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services to the properties within the boundaries of the District. The apportioning of special benefit is a two-step process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.
Packet Page 443
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 15 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 13 In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of the District's improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements.
The identified special benefits conferred to property from the improvements can be summarized as follows:
• Improved aesthetics:
o Well-maintained and attractive landscaping enhances the overall appearance and desirability of the area, making it visually appealing to property owners and visitors.
• Increased property values:
o Attractive and well-maintained landscaping can increase the desirability of nearby properties, potentially leading to higher property values. • Safety:
o Landscaping helps calm traffic and reduce speeds, creating a safer environment for people traveling to and from properties within the District. It also acts as a physical buffer between roadways and properties within the District.
• Noise reduction:
o Trees and plants help absorb traffic noise and create a buffer between the road and nearby properties, reducing noise levels and creating a more peaceful environment.
• Reduced pollution:
o Trees and plants aid in filtering pollutants from the air, improving air quality and creating a healthier environment for properties in proximity to the landscape.
These benefits, when applied to property in the District, specifically increase the utility of the property within the District. For example, the assessments provide funding to maintain the landscaping that improves safety and provides visual and environmental benefits to the properties within the District. Such improved and well-maintained public facilities enhance the overall usability, quality, desirability, and safety of the properties.
Packet Page 444
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 15 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 14 Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services.
Therefore, the City and Engineer at the time of formation determined that each parcel within the boundaries of the District receives a similar benefit from the improvements.
Therefore, the most appropriate method of apportioning costs was determined to be spreading all District costs equally to each parcel in the District. This methodology is commonly used to distribute assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City proposes to collect the maximum assessment revenue from the assessable parcels located in the District, which amounts to $174.00 per parcel to be levied. A listing of each assessable parcel and their proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessment is on the Assessment Roll in Part E of this Report.
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 (all of which are typically not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the County). Also exempted from the assessment would be public agency owned property, utility rights-of-ways, common areas (such as in condominium complexes or those that are owned by a Homeowner’s or Property Owner’s Association), and any other property that is deemed to be unable to develop by the City. These types of parcels do not benefit from the improvements.
Appeals and Interpretations
Any property owner who feels that the assessment levied on the subject property is in error because of incorrect information being used to apply the foregoing method of assessment, may file a written appeal with City Engineer or his or her designee. Any such appeal is limited to correction of an assessment during the then current or, if before July 1, the upcoming fiscal year. Upon the filing of any such appeal, the City Engineer or his or her designee will promptly review the appeal and any information provided by the property owner. If the City Engineer or his or her designee finds that the assessment should be modified, the appropriate changes shall be made to the assessment roll. If any such changes are approved after the assessment roll has been filed with the County for collection, the City Engineer or his or her designee is authorized to refund to the property owner the amount of any approved reduction. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the City Engineer or her or his designee may refer their appeal to the City Council and the decision of the City Council shall be final.

CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 16 INTRODUCTION
1 SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The City of Newark (“City”) levies and collects special assessments on parcels within the City of Newark Landscaping and Lighting District No. 16 (“District”) to maintain public improvements. The District was formed in May of 1999 to provide a dedicated source of funding for the ongoing maintenance of landscaping and park improvements benefiting parcels within the boundaries of the District.
The assessments and method of apportionment described in this Report utilize commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and have been calculated and proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits received as approved by the City Council at the time the District was formed.
The District generally consists of those properties within the development east of Kiote Drive, along Rinconada Court, Crystal Springs Court, Tanforan Court, and Silverado Place. A reduced copy of the Assessment Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District is provided in Part C of this Report.
Impacts of Proposition 218
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 established new procedural requirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts.
These new procedures stipulate that even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition 218, future increases in assessments must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218. However, if the increase in assessments were anticipated in the assessment formula (e.g., CPI increase or assessment cap) then the assessment would comply with the intent and provisions of Proposition 218.
Current Annual Administration
As required by the 1972 Act, the Engineer's Report includes: (1) a description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced by the District, (2) a cost estimate for the District, and (3) a listing of the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessments to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District.
The City will hold a Public Hearing on July 11, 2024, regarding this District which will provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the City Council may adopt a resolution confirming the assessment rates as originally proposed or as modified. Payment of annual assessments for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for their annual property taxes.
All funds collected through the assessments must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this Report.

This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District.
The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones.
The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of streetlights, landscaping, parks, trails, open space, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore needs to reflect the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, Article XIIID, of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional “special benefit” conferred on the property. Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. There is no widely accepted or statutory formula for determining general and special benefit. However, the constitution states that a special benefit is different from a general benefit in that it is “particular and distinct” and “over and above” general benefits received by other properties.
The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 16 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 12 Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, utility easements, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.
The amount to be assessed may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable lots or parcels. In order for the City to separate out the general and special benefits for each improvement type, an analysis of each improvement was conducted. The analysis reviewed the purpose and users of each improvement, and then identified the properties that benefit from the improvement, and then allocated the costs to maintain, service, and replace each improvement type to each identified property.
Because general benefits are not assessable, any costs associated with general benefits are to be paid for by the City. Only the costs associated with the special benefits conferred on property within District from the authorized improvements are assessable, and therefore assessed herein. A summary of the benefits conferred by the improvements is described below.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District was formed.
The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of the District. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services within the boundaries of the District. The apportioning of special benefit is a two-step process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.
In determining the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel, the proximity of the parcel to the public improvements detailed in Part A above, and the capital, maintenance, and operating costs of said public improvements, was considered and analyzed. Due to the close proximity of the parcels to the improvements detailed in Part A above, it has been demonstrated and determined that the parcels are uniquely benefited by, and receive a direct advantage from, and are conferred a particular and distinct special benefit over and above general benefits by said public improvements in a way that is particular and distinct from its effect on other parcels, and that real property in general and the public at large do not share.
Packet Page 462
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 16 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 13 In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of the improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements. The identified special benefits conferred to property from the improvements are summarized as follows.
Special Benefit from Landscape Maintenance
All parcels within the District receive special benefit from Landscape Maintenance. Trees, landscaping, hardscapes, ornamental structures, and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, confer a particular and distinct special benefit upon real property within the District by providing beautification, shade and positive enhancement of the community character, attractiveness, and desirability of the surroundings. The landscape surrounding the development also acts as a buffer between nearby properties and the roadways improving the overall safety of properties within the development. In addition, the trees and plantings adjacent to the development help absorb noise and create a buffer between the road and nearby properties, reducing noise levels and creating a more peaceful environment. In addition, all the aforementioned contribute to a specific increase in property desirability and a specific enhancement of the property value of each parcel within the District.
In Parkways and Land Values, written by John Nolan and Henry V. Hubbard in 1937, it is stated:
" ... there is no lack of opinion, based on general principles and experience and common sense, that parkways do in fact add value to property, even though the amount cannot be determined exactly .... Indeed, in most cases where public money has been spent on parkways the assumption has been made that the proposed parkway will show a provable financial profit to the City. It has been believed that the establishment of parkways causes a rise in real estate values throughout the City, or in parts of the City, ... " It should be noted that the definition of "parkways" above may include the roadway as well as the landscaping alongside the roadway.
Special Benefit from Park Maintenance
All parcels within District receive special benefit from Park Maintenance. The overall quality of life and desirability of an area is enhanced, when public parks and recreational facilities are in place, improved, operable, safe, clean, and properly maintained.
Conversely, property desirability decreases when park and recreational facilities are unsafe or destroyed by the elements or vandalism.
Packet Page 463
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 16 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 14 Property desirability in an area also increases when there is an increase in the number of parks, recreation centers and sports facilities. These park and recreational facilities enable property owners to participate in sporting events, leisure activities, picnics, organized social events, and other miscellaneous activities.
Studies in several communities, including counties and cities throughout the United States, have indicated that recreation areas and facilities, if well maintained and wisely administered, have caused a marked increase in the property values of parcels in the community. Consequently, such recreation and park facilities have proved a potent factor in maintaining a sound economic condition and a high standard of livability in the community. These studies confirm the opinion, long held by planning authorities, as to the economic value of parks and recreational facilities in a community. “The recreation value is realized as a rise in the value of land and other property in or near the recreation area, and is of both private interest to the landowner and others, holding an economic stake in the area, and of public interest to the taxpayers, who have a stake ...." (National Recreation and Park Association, June 1985)
“Recreation and park amenities are central components in establishing the quality of life in a community. ... [Businesses’] main resource is their employees for whom quality of life is an important issue… The availability and attractiveness of local parks and programs influences some companies’ relocation decisions. ... the presence of a park encourages real estate development around it.... ". (California Parks & Recreation, Winter 1997) The benefit of parks and other recreational facilities to residential and commercial/industrial properties has been summarized by several studies. The United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service, in a publication from June 1984, concluded that:
• Parks and recreation stimulate business and generate tax revenues • Parks and recreation help conserve land, energy, and resources • An investment in parks and recreation helps reduce pollution and noise, makes communities more livable, and increases property values • Public recreation benefits all residents and employers by providing continuing opportunities to maintain a level of fitness throughout one's working life, and through helping individuals cope with the stress of a fast-paced and demanding life Proper maintenance and operation of the mini park within the District benefits those properties within the development by providing environmental quality and recreational enhancement.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 16 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 15 General Benefit
Since the in-tract streets within the development are designed to have minimal flow through traffic and the mini park within the District was designed for use by the properties within the District, there are few reasons for the public to visit the mini park or vehicles to access the in-tract streets unless their destination is to or from a single-family residential parcel within the development. However, it is reasonable to conclude that members of the public may use the mini park and vehicular traffic may on a rare occasion utilize the in-tract streets due to the need to turn around or a mistaken turn into the development. These rare circumstances where a pedestrian uses the mini park or a vehicle mistakenly uses the intract streets, have been determined to be a rare and infrequent circumstance. Even though these are rare and infrequent circumstances, they must be accounted for and cannot be assessed to the properties within the Districts. Therefore, based on low likelihood of the general public visiting the mini park and minimal if any flow-through traffic, it is conservatively estimated that approximately 98% of the annual trips to the mini park or along local in-tract roadways within the development would be a special and direct benefit to the parcels within the District and 2% of the annual trips to the mini park or along local in-tract roadways within the development would be a general benefit.
The share of costs attributable to the general benefits associated with the District improvements cannot be assessed to properties within the District, but are required to be paid by some other source, such as the City’s General Fund.
Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services.
Therefore, the City and Engineer at the time of formation determined that each parcel within the boundaries of the District receives a similar benefit from the improvements.
Therefore, the most appropriate method of apportioning costs was determined to be spreading all District costs equally to each parcel in the District. This methodology is commonly used to distribute assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City proposes to generate the maximum assessment revenue from the assessable parcels located in the District, which amounts to $209.50 per parcel to be levied. A listing of each assessable parcel and their proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessment is on the Assessment Roll in Part E of this Report.
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 (all of which are typically not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the County). Also exempted from the assessment would be public agency owned property, utility rights-of-ways, common areas (such as in condominium complexes or those that are owned by a Homeowner’s or Property Owner’s Association), and any other property that is deemed to be unable to develop by the City. These types of parcels do not benefit from the improvements.

CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 17 INTRODUCTION
1 SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The City of Newark (“City”) levies and collects special assessments on parcels within the City of Newark Landscaping and Lighting District No. 17 (“District”) to maintain public improvements. The District was formed in May of 2004 to provide a dedicated source of funding for the ongoing maintenance of landscaping improvements benefiting property within the boundaries of the District.
The assessments and method of apportionment described in this Report utilize commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and have been calculated and proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits received as approved by the City Council at the time the District was formed.
The District generally consists of those properties within the infill development of Tract 7004 north of Mayhews Landing Road, along Dijon Drive, and south of Bellhaven Avenue. A reduced copy of the Assessment Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District is provided in Part C of this Report.
Impacts of Proposition 218
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 established new procedural requirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts.
These new procedures stipulate that even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition 218, future increases in assessments must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218. However, if the increase in assessments were anticipated in the assessment formula (e.g., CPI increase or assessment cap) then the assessment would comply with the intent and provisions of Proposition 218.
Current Annual Administration
As required by the 1972 Act, the Engineer's Report includes: (1) a description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced by the District, (2) a cost estimate for the District, and (3) a listing of the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessments to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District.
The City will hold a Public Hearing on July 11, 2024, regarding this District which will provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the City Council may adopt a resolution confirming the assessment rates as originally proposed or as modified. Payment of annual assessments for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for their annual property taxes.
All funds collected through the assessments must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this Report.

ESTIMATE OF COSTS
The 1972 Act requires that a special fund be set up for the collection of revenues and expenditures of the District. The Act provides that the total cost of construction, operation, and maintenance and servicing of the public improvements specified in Part A of this Report can be recovered by the District. Incidental expenses including administration of the District, engineering fees, legal fees and all other costs associated with the construction, operation and maintenance and servicing of the District can also be included.
Funds raised from the assessments shall be used only for the expenditures represented above. A contribution to the District by the City may be made to reduce assessments as the City deems appropriate. Any balance remaining on July 1 at the end of the fiscal year must be carried over to the next fiscal year unless the funds are being accumulated for future capital replacement projects or operating reserves.
The following table provides a summary of the estimated District revenues and cost estimates for Fiscal Year 2024-25.

CITY OF NEWARK PART B
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 17 ESTIMATE OF COSTS 8 The purpose of the various reserves is to ensure the District will have funds available for cashflow purposes and to repair or reconstruct the improvements that are the responsibility of the District.
The Recommended Operating Reserve target is fifty percent (50%) of the projected expenditures. Maintaining a fully funded Operating Reserve eliminates the need for the City to transfer funds from non-District accounts to pay for operational expenses during the first half of the fiscal year and provides the District with sufficient funds to address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.
The purpose of collecting and holding funds in a Capital Reserve is so that when improvements need to be replaced or expenditures are greater than can be conveniently raised from a single year’s assessment, funds are available so that the District can respond and address the need promptly.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 17 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 11 PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENTS
This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District.
The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones.
The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of streetlights, landscaping, parks, trails, open space, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore needs to reflect the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, Article XIIID, of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional “special benefit” conferred on the property. Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. There is no widely accepted or statutory formula for determining general and special benefit. However, the constitution states that a special benefit is different from a general benefit in that it is “particular and distinct” and “over and above” general benefits received by other properties.
The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.
Packet Page 482
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 17 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 12 Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, utility easements, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.
The amount to be assessed may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable lots or parcels. In order for the City to separate out the general and special benefits for each improvement type, an analysis of each improvement was conducted. The analysis reviewed the purpose and users of each improvement, and then identified the properties that benefit from the improvement, and then allocated the costs to maintain, service, and replace each improvement type to each identified property.
Because general benefits are not assessable, any costs associated with general benefits are to be paid for by the City. Only the costs associated with the special benefits conferred on property within the District from the authorized improvements are assessable, and therefore assessed herein. A summary of the benefits conferred by the improvements is described below.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District was formed.
The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of the District. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services within the boundaries of the District. The apportioning of special benefit is a two-step process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.
In determining the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel, the proximity of the parcel to the public improvements detailed in Part A above, and the capital, maintenance, and operating costs of said public improvements, was considered and analyzed. Due to the close proximity of the parcels to the improvements detailed in Part A above, it has been demonstrated and determined that the parcels are uniquely benefited by, and receive a direct advantage from, and are conferred a particular and distinct special benefit over and above general benefits by said public improvements in a way that is particular and distinct from its effect on other parcels, and that real property in general and the public at large do not share.
Packet Page 483
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 17 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 13 In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of the improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements. The identified special benefits conferred to property from the improvements are summarized as follows.
Special Benefit from Landscape Maintenance
All parcels within the District receive special benefit from Landscape Maintenance. Trees, landscaping, hardscapes, ornamental structures, and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, confer a particular and distinct special benefit upon real property within the District by providing beautification, shade and positive enhancement of the community character, attractiveness, and desirability of the surroundings through association with the improvements. The landscape surrounding the development not only enhances beautification of the adjacent development but also acts as a buffer between nearby properties and the roadways improving the overall safety of properties within the development. In addition, the trees and plantings adjacent to the development help absorb noise and create a buffer between the road and nearby properties, reducing noise levels and creating a more peaceful environment. In addition, all the aforementioned contribute to a specific increase in property desirability and a specific enhancement of the property value of each parcel within the District.
In Parkways and Land Values, written by John Nolan and Henry V. Hubbard in 1937, it is stated:
" ... there is no lack of opinion, based on general principles and experience and common sense, that parkways do in fact add value to property, even though the amount cannot be determined exactly .... Indeed, in most cases where public money has been spent on parkways the assumption has been made that the proposed parkway will show a provable financial profit to the City. It has been believed that the establishment of parkways causes a rise in real estate values throughout the City, or in parts of the City, ... " It should be noted that the definition of "parkways" above may include the roadway as well as the landscaping alongside the roadway.
General Benefit
In reviewing each of the District improvements, the proximity of those improvements to both properties within the District and those outside the District, as well as the reasons for installing and constructing such improvements, it is evident that the improvements are solely the result of developing properties within the District, and the ongoing maintenance and operation of these improvements will directly affect the properties within the District.
Although the improvements include public areas, easements, rights-of-way, and other amenities available or visible to the public at large, the construction and installation of these improvements were only necessary for the development of properties within the District and were not required, nor necessarily desired by any properties or developments Packet Page 484
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 17 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 14 outside the District boundary and any public access or use of the improvements by others is incidental. Though the landscape was designed as a result of the development of the properties, and for use by the properties within the District, it is reasonable to conclude that pedestrians passing by and the traffic flow along the roadways adjacent to the landscaping receive some incidental benefit from the improvements and such incidental benefits must be accounted for and cannot be assessed to the properties within the District. Therefore, it is conservatively estimated that approximately 98% of the benefit conferred by the landscaping constructed for the development and properties within the District would be a special and direct benefit to the parcels within the District and 2% of the benefit is conservatively conferred to the public at large that may utilize the roadway adjacent to the development would be a general benefit.
The share of costs attributable to the general benefits associated with the District improvements cannot be assessed to properties within the District, but are required to be paid by some other source, such as the City’s General Fund.
Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services.
Therefore, the City and Engineer at the time of formation determined that each parcel within the boundaries of the District receives a similar benefit from the improvements.
Therefore, the most appropriate method of apportioning costs was determined to be spreading all District costs equally to each parcel in the District. This methodology is commonly used to distribute assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City proposes to generate the maximum assessment revenue from the assessable parcels located in the District, which amounts to $189.00 per parcel to be levied. A listing of each assessable parcel and their proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessment is on the Assessment Roll in Part E of this Report.
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 (all of which are typically not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the County). Also exempted from the assessment would be public agency owned property, utility rights-of-ways, common areas (such as in condominium complexes or those that are owned by a Homeowner’s or Property Owner’s Association), and any other property that is deemed to be unable to develop by the City. These types of parcels do not benefit from the improvements.

CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 18 INTRODUCTION
1 SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The City of Newark (“City”) levies and collects special assessments on parcels within the City of Newark Landscaping and Lighting District No. 18 (“District”) to maintain public improvements. The District was formed in June of 2015 to provide a dedicated source of funding for the ongoing maintenance of landscaping improvements benefiting parcels within the boundaries of the District.
The assessments and method of apportionment described in this Report utilize commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and have been calculated and proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits received as approved by the City Council at the time the District was formed.
The District generally consists of those properties within the developments of Tract 8130, which is located north of Cedar Boulevard, south of Timber Street and the Nimitz Freeway, west of Central Avenue and the adjacent commercial and industrial structures, and east of the Public Storage property. A reduced copy of the Assessment Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District is provided in Part C of this Report.
Impacts of Proposition 218
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 established new procedural requirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts.
These new procedures stipulate that even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition 218, future increases in assessments must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218. However, if the increase in assessments were anticipated in the assessment formula (e.g., CPI increase or assessment cap) then the assessment would comply with the intent and provisions of Proposition 218.
Current Annual Administration
As required by the 1972 Act, the Engineer's Report includes: (1) a description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced by the District, (2) a cost estimate for the District, and (3) a listing of the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessments to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District.
The City will hold a Public Hearing on July 11, 2024, regarding this District which will provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the City Council may adopt a resolution confirming the assessment rates as originally proposed or as modified.

ESTIMATE OF COSTS
The 1972 Act requires that a special fund be set up for the collection of revenues and expenditures of the District. The Act provides that the total cost of construction, operation, and maintenance and servicing of the public improvements specified in Part A of this Report can be recovered by the District. Incidental expenses including administration of the District, engineering fees, legal fees and all other costs associated with the construction, operation and maintenance and servicing of the District can also be included.
Funds raised from the assessments shall be used only for the expenditures represented above. A contribution to the District by the City may be made to reduce assessments as the City deems appropriate. Any balance remaining on July 1 at the end of the fiscal year must be carried over to the next fiscal year unless the funds are being accumulated for future capital replacement projects or operating reserves.
The following table provides a summary of the estimated District revenues and cost estimates for Fiscal Year 2024-25.

CITY OF NEWARK PART B
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 18 ESTIMATE OF COSTS 9 The purpose of the various reserves is to ensure the District will have funds available for cashflow purposes and to repair or reconstruct the improvements that are the responsibility of the District.
The Recommended Operating Reserve target is fifty percent (50%) of the projected expenditures. Maintaining a fully funded Operating Reserve eliminates the need for the City to transfer funds from non-District accounts to pay for operational expenses during the first half of the fiscal year and provides the District with sufficient funds to address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.
The purpose of collecting and holding funds in a Capital Reserve is so that when improvements need to be replaced or expenditures are greater than can be conveniently raised from a single year’s assessment, funds are available so that the District can respond and address the need promptly.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 18 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 12 PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENTS
This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District.
The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones.
The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of streetlights, landscaping, parks, trails, open space, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore needs to reflect the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel.
In addition, Article XIIID, of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional “special benefit” conferred on the property. Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. There is no widely accepted or statutory formula for determining general and special benefit. However, the constitution states that a special benefit is different from a general benefit in that it is “particular and distinct” and “over and above” general benefits received by other properties.
The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.
Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, utility easements, Packet Page 503
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 18 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 13 and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.
The amount to be assessed may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable lots or parcels. In order for the City to separate out the general and special benefits for each improvement type, an analysis of each improvement was conducted. The analysis reviewed the purpose and users of each improvement, and then identified the properties that benefit from the improvement, and then allocated the costs to maintain, service, and replace each improvement type to each identified property.
Because general benefits are not assessable, any costs associated with general benefits are to be paid for by the City. Only the costs associated with the special benefits conferred on property within District from the authorized improvements are assessable, and therefore assessed herein. A summary of the benefits conferred by the improvements is described below.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District was formed.
The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of the District. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services within the boundaries of the District. The apportioning of special benefit is a two-step process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.
In determining the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel, the proximity of the parcel to the public improvements detailed in Part A above, and the capital, maintenance, and operating costs of said public improvements, was considered and analyzed. Due to the close proximity of the parcels to the improvements detailed in Part A above, it has been demonstrated and determined that the parcels are uniquely benefited by, and receive a direct advantage from, and are conferred a particular and distinct special benefit over and above general benefits by said public improvements in a way that is particular and distinct from its effect on other parcels, and that real property in general and the public at large do not share.
In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of the improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements. The identified special benefits conferred to property from the improvements are summarized as follows.
Packet Page 504
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 18 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 14 Special Benefit from Landscape Maintenance
All parcels within the District receive special benefit from Landscape Maintenance within the adjacent medians. Trees, landscaping, hardscapes, ornamental structures, and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, confer a particular and distinct special benefit upon real property within the District by providing beautification, shade and positive enhancement of the community character, attractiveness, and desirability of the surroundings. The medians adjacent to the development help calm traffic and reduce speeds, creating a safer environment for those traveling to and from the properties within the District. The median also acts as a physical buffer between portions of the roadway and properties within the District improving the overall safety of properties within the development. In addition, the trees and plantings within the medians help absorb noise from the road for nearby properties, reducing noise levels and creating a more peaceful environment. In addition, all the aforementioned contribute to a specific increase in property desirability and a specific enhancement of the property value of each parcel within the District.
In Parkways and Land Values, written by John Nolan and Henry V. Hubbard in 1937, it is stated:
" ... there is no lack of opinion, based on general principles and experience and common sense, that parkways do in fact add value to property, even though the amount cannot be determined exactly .... Indeed, in most cases where public money has been spent on parkways the assumption has been made that the proposed parkway will show a provable financial profit to the City. It has been believed that the establishment of parkways causes a rise in real estate values throughout the City, or in parts of the City, ... " It should be noted that the definition of "parkways" above may include the roadway as well as the landscaping alongside the roadway.
General Benefit
In reviewing each of the District improvements, the proximity of those improvements to both properties within the District and those outside the District, as well as the reasons for installing and constructing such improvements, it is evident that the improvements are solely the result of developing properties within the District, and the ongoing maintenance and operation of these improvements will directly affect the properties within the District.
Although the improvements include public areas, easements, rights-of-way, and other amenities available or visible to the public at large, the construction and installation of these improvements were only necessary for the development of properties within the District and were not required, nor necessarily desired by any properties or developments outside the District boundary. Though the medians were designed as a result of the development of the properties within the District, it is reasonable to conclude that the traffic flow along the roadways adjacent to the median landscaping receive some incidental benefit from the improvements and such incidental benefits must be accounted for and cannot be assessed to the properties within the District. Therefore, it is conservatively estimated that approximately 98% of the benefit conferred by the medians in the roadways constructed for the development and properties within the District would be a special and Packet Page 505
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 18 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 15 direct benefit to the parcels within the District and 2% of the benefit from the medians is conferred to the public at large that may utilize the roadway adjacent to the development would be a general benefit.
The share of costs attributable to the general benefits associated with the District improvements cannot be assessed to properties within the District, but are required to be paid by some other source, such as the City’s General Fund.
Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services.
Therefore, the City and Engineer at the time of formation determined that each parcel within the boundaries of the District receives a similar benefit from the improvements.
Therefore, the most appropriate method of apportioning costs was determined to be spreading all District costs equally to each dwelling unit in the District. This methodology is commonly used to distribute assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City proposes to collect the maximum assessment revenue from the assessable parcels located in the District, which amounts to $66.96 per parcel to be levied. A listing of each assessable parcel and their proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessment is on the Assessment Roll in Part E of this Report.
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 (all of which are typically not assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the County). Also exempted from the assessment would be public agency owned property, utility rights-of-ways, common areas (such as in condominium complexes or those that are owned by a Homeowner’s or Property Owner’s Association), and any other property that is deemed to be unable to develop by the City. These types of parcels do not benefit from the improvements.
Appeals and Interpretations
Any property owner who feels that the assessment levied on the subject property is in error because of incorrect information being used to apply the foregoing method of assessment, may file a written appeal with City Engineer or his or her designee. Any such appeal is limited to correction of an assessment during the then current or, if before July 1, the upcoming fiscal year. Upon the filing of any such appeal, the City Engineer or his or her designee will promptly review the appeal and any information provided by the property owner. If the City Engineer or his or her designee finds that the assessment should be modified, the appropriate changes shall be made to the assessment roll. If any such changes are approved after the assessment roll has been filed with the County for collection, the City Engineer or his or her designee is authorized to refund to the property owner the amount of any approved reduction. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the City Engineer or her or his designee may refer their appeal to the City Council and the decision of the City Council shall be final.

CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 INTRODUCTION
1 SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
The City of Newark (“City”) levies and collects special assessments on parcels within the City of Newark Landscaping and Lighting District No. 19 (“District”) to maintain public improvements. The District was formed in December of 2016 to provide a dedicated source of funding for the ongoing maintenance of median and buffer landscape, street lighting, and park improvements benefiting parcels within the boundaries of the District. Since formation, additional properties have been annexed into the District. A historical listing of the date each annexation occurred since formation follows:
• Annexation No. 1 (September 14, 2017)
• Annexation No. 2 (September 14, 2017)
• Annexation No. 3 (September 14, 2017)
• Annexation No. 4 (May 9, 2019)
• Annexation No. 5 (November 12, 2020)
• Annexation No. 6 (January 27, 2022)
Following the approval of the annexations listed above, the District consists of the following seven (7) zones of benefit.
• Zone 1 (Bayshores)
The Bayshores Tract Map 8085 was comprised of residential lots (detached homes, condominiums, and townhomes), landscape lots, a park area, and private roads. The landscape lots and park around the clubhouse will be maintained by the Homeowners Association and will not be funded by assessments.
• Zone 2 (Lighthouse)
The Lighthouse Tract Map 8157 was comprised of eighty-eight (88) condominium units and private roads.
• Zone 3 (Newark Senior Housing – USA Properties)
The Newark Senior Housing – USA Properties project is comprised of one building, containing seventy-five (75) apartment units.
• Zone 4 (Tract 8098 – Glass Bay)
The Glass Bay Tract Map 8098 was comprised of two hundred and seventeen (217) single-family homes and private roads.
• Zone 5 (Tracts 8099 & 8436 - Bridgeway)
The Bridgeway Development was comprised of Tract 8099 and 8436 and contains three hundred and six (306) single family lots and two hundred and seventy (270) multi-family units.
Packet Page 513
CITY OF NEWARK SECTION I
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 INTRODUCTION
2 • Zone 6 (Tract 8459 – Compass Bay)
The Compass Bay Development was comprised of Tract 8459 which included fiftythree (53) single family lots and eighty-five (85) multi-family units. • Zone 7 (Tract 8453 – Harbor Pointe)
The Harbor Pointe (Bridgeway Parcel C) Development was comprised of Tract 8453 and contains one hundred and ninety two (192) single family lots.
The assessments and method of apportionment described in this Report utilize commonly accepted assessment engineering practices and have been calculated and proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits received as approved by the City Council at the time the District was formed and each subsequent zone of benefit was established.
The District generally consists of those properties in an area known as Bayside Newark, formerly known as the Dumbarton Transit-Oriented Development. The Bayside Newark project is located next to the proposed commuter rail station near the corner of Willow Avenue and Enterprise Drive. A reduced copy of the Assessment Diagram showing the exterior boundaries of the District and each zone of benefit is provided in Part C of this Report.
Impacts of Proposition 218
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 established new procedural requirements for the formation and administration of assessment districts.
These new procedures stipulate that even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition 218, future increases in assessments must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218. However, if the increase in assessments were anticipated in the assessment formula (e.g., CPI increase or assessment cap) then the assessment would comply with the intent and provisions of Proposition 218.
Current Annual Administration
As required by the 1972 Act, the Engineer's Report includes: (1) a description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced by the District and each benefit zone, (2) a cost estimate for the District and each benefit zone, and (3) a listing of the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 assessments to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District and each benefit zone.
The City will hold a Public Hearing on July 11, 2024, regarding this District which will provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the City Council may adopt a resolution confirming the assessment rates as originally proposed or as modified. Payment of annual assessments for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for their annual property taxes.
All funds collected through the assessments must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this Report.

Landscaping and Lighting District No. 19
Fiscal Year 2024-25 Cost Estimate
Packet Page 525
CITY OF NEWARK PART B
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 ESTIMATE OF COSTS 14 The purpose of the various reserves is to ensure the District will have funds available for cashflow purposes and to repair or reconstruct the improvements that are the responsibility of the District.
The Recommended Operating Reserve target is fifty percent (50%) of the projected expenditures. Maintaining a fully funded Operating Reserve eliminates the need for the City to transfer funds from non-District accounts to pay for operational expenses during the first half of the fiscal year and provides the District with sufficient funds to address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.
The purpose of collecting and holding funds in a Capital Reserve is so that when improvements need to be replaced or expenditures are greater than can be conveniently raised from a single year’s assessment, funds are available so that the District can respond and address the need promptly.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 23 PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENTS
This section explains the benefits to be derived from the improvements and the methodology used to apportion the total costs of the improvements to properties within the District. The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the relative special benefits to be derived by the properties in the District and any established benefit zones. The assessment is apportioned to each parcel in proportion to the relative cost of the special benefits from the improvements.
General
The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, maintenance and servicing of streetlights, landscaping, parks, trails, open space, and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
“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.” The formula used for calculating assessments in the District therefore needs to reflect the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to fairly apportion the costs based on estimated benefit to each parcel. In addition, Article XIIID, of the California Constitution limits the amount of any assessment to the proportional “special benefit” conferred on the property. Article XIIID provides that only special benefits are assessable, and the City must separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel. There is no widely accepted or statutory formula for determining general and special benefit. However, the constitution states that a special benefit is different from a general benefit in that it is “particular and distinct” and “over and above” general benefits received by other properties. The 1972 Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if “by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement.” Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true “assessment” rather than a “special tax”.
Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment. Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, utility easements, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.
Packet Page 535
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 24 The amount to be assessed may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable lots or parcels. In order for the City to separate out the general and special benefits for each improvement type, an analysis of each improvement was conducted. The analysis reviewed the purpose and users of each improvement, and then identified the properties that benefit from the improvement both within and outside the District and each zone of benefit, and then allocated the costs to maintain, service, and replace each improvement type to each identified property.
Because general benefits are not assessable, any costs associated with general benefits or special benefits assigned to properties (both within and outside and the District and each zone of benefit) not in a zone of benefit are to be paid for by the City or by the area receiving special benefits from the improvements. Only the costs associated with the special benefits conferred on property within each zone of benefit from the authorized improvements are assessable, and therefore assessed herein. A full analysis showing the quantification and separation of special and general benefits performed by the City and Assessment Engineer at the time of formation and the establishment of each zone of benefit can be found in the formation and annexation reports for each zone of benefit. A summary of the analysis by improvement type is described below.
Discussion of Benefit
Each of the improvements have been carefully reviewed by the City and the corresponding assessments have been proportionately spread to each parcel based on the special benefits conferred to property from the improvements as determined at the time the District and each subsequent zone of benefit was established.
The District consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of a zone of benefit. The method of apportioning costs and assessing properties is based upon the proportional special benefits to be conferred by the improvements and services within each zone of benefit to the properties within and outside the boundaries of the District and each zone of benefit. The apportioning of special benefit is a two-step process: the first step is to identify the types of special benefits arising from the improvements and services, and the second step is to allocate the costs and assign assessments to property based on the estimates of the special benefit being conferred to each property.
In determining the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel, the proximity of the parcel to the public improvements detailed in Part A above, and the capital, maintenance, and operating costs of said public improvements, was considered and analyzed. Due to the close proximity of the parcels to the improvements detailed in Part A above, it has been demonstrated and determined that the parcels are uniquely benefited by, and receive a direct advantage from, and are conferred a particular and distinct special benefit over and above general benefits by said public improvements in a way that is particular and distinct from its effect on other parcels, and that real property in general and the public at large do not share.
In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to property conferred from the installation, maintenance, and servicing of the improvements funded by Packet Page 536
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 25 each zone of benefit within the District. These special benefits are not dependent on any one property owner's use of each zone of benefit’s improvements or their specific demographic status. The basis for these special benefits comes from statutes approved by the California Legislature and other studies that describe the types of benefits received by property from such improvements. The identified special benefits conferred to property from the improvements are summarized as follows.
Special Benefit from Landscape Maintenance
All parcels within each zone of benefit of the District receive special benefit from Landscape Maintenance. Trees, landscaping, hardscapes, ornamental structures, and appurtenant facilities, if well maintained, confer a particular and distinct special benefit upon real property within each zone of benefit by providing beautification, shade and positive enhancement of the community character, attractiveness, and desirability of the surroundings. In addition, all the aforementioned contribute to a specific increase in property desirability and a specific enhancement of the property value of each parcel within each zone of benefit of the District.
In Parkways and Land Values, written by John Nolan and Henry V. Hubbard in 1937, it is stated:
" ... there is no lack of opinion, based on general principles and experience and common sense, that parkways do in fact add value to property, even though the amount cannot be determined exactly .... Indeed, in most cases where public money has been spent on parkways the assumption has been made that the proposed parkway will show a provable financial profit to the City. It has been believed that the establishment of parkways causes a rise in real estate values throughout the City, or in parts of the City, ... " It should be noted that the definition of "parkways" above may include the roadway as well as the landscaping alongside the roadway.
Special Benefit from Street Lighting Maintenance
All parcels within each applicable zone of benefit of the District receive special benefit from Street Lighting Maintenance. The special benefit from street lighting can be measured by increased safety to people and property, as well as the increased availability of lighting.
The safety to people results in a special benefit to parcels because street lighting improves traffic safety during ingress and egress to the property and creates a deterrent to crime against property. The safety to property results in a special benefit to both developed and vacant or undeveloped parcels because street lighting operation, maintenance and servicing provides for the protection of buildings and personal property against crimes such as theft and vandalism.
Additionally, all parcels in the applicable zones of benefit receive a special benefit from the installation, operation, maintenance, and servicing of the street lighting on collector streets.
Collector street lighting benefits properties primarily because the properties, and the persons traveling to and from the properties, are provided safe street access.

LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 26 Special Benefit from Park Maintenance
All parcels within Zones 6 (Tract 8459 – Compass Bay) and 7 (Tract 8453 – Harbor Pointe) receive special benefit from Park Maintenance. The overall quality of life and desirability of an area is enhanced, when public parks and recreational facilities are in place, improved, operable, safe, clean, and properly maintained. Conversely, property desirability decreases when park and recreational facilities are unsafe or destroyed by the elements or vandalism.
Property desirability in an area also increases when there is an increase in the number of parks, recreation centers and sports facilities. These park and recreational facilities enable property owners to participate in sporting events, leisure activities, picnics, organized social events, and other miscellaneous activities.
Studies in several communities, including counties and cities throughout the United States, have indicated that recreation areas and facilities, if well maintained and wisely administered, have caused a marked increase in the property values of parcels in the community. Consequently, such recreation and park facilities have proved a potent factor in maintaining a sound economic condition and a high standard of livability in the community. These studies confirm the opinion, long held by planning authorities, as to the economic value of parks and recreational facilities in a community. “The recreation value is realized as a rise in the value of land and other property in or near the recreation area, and is of both private interest to the landowner and others, holding an economic stake in the area, and of public interest to the taxpayers, who have a stake ...." (National Recreation and Park Association, June 1985)
“Recreation and park amenities are central components in establishing the quality of life in a community. ... [Businesses’] main resource is their employees for whom quality of life is an important issue… The availability and attractiveness of local parks and programs influences some companies’ relocation decisions. ... the presence of a park encourages real estate development around it.... ". (California Parks & Recreation, Winter 1997) The benefit of parks and other recreational facilities to residential and commercial/industrial properties has been summarized by several studies. The United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service, in a publication from June 1984, concluded that:
• Parks and recreation stimulate business and generate tax revenues • Parks and recreation help conserve land, energy, and resources • An investment in parks and recreation helps reduce pollution and noise, makes communities more livable, and increases property values • Public recreation benefits all residents and employers by providing continuing opportunities to maintain a level of fitness throughout one's working life, and through helping individuals cope with the stress of a fast-paced and demanding life Packet Page 538

LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 27 Proper maintenance and operation of the parks within the City benefits those properties within the service areas of the parks by providing environmental quality and recreational enhancement.
Special Benefit to Parcels Outside of the District
There are parcels outside each zone of benefit that receive special benefit from some of the improvements. Based on the analysis performed at the time of formation and the establishment of each subsequent annexation, a summary of the percentage of annual costs attributable to special benefits to parcels outside the District by zone of benefit is shown below:
The share of costs attributable to special benefits conferred to parcels outside of each zone of benefit cannot be assessed to properties within each specific zone, but are required to be paid by some other source, such as the City’s General Fund.
General Benefit
The Assessment Engineer at the time of District formation and at the establishment of each subsequent annexation performed an analysis and determined there are general benefits conferred from the landscape and park improvements to the public at large.
Based on these analyses performed by the original Assessment Engineer, a summary of the percentage of annual costs attributable to general benefit are shown below:
The share of costs attributable to the general benefits of each zone of benefit cannot be assessed to properties within each specific zone, but are required to be paid by some other source, such as the City’s General Fund.

CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 28 Method of Assessment
This process of apportioning assessments to each property involves determining the relative special benefit received by each property from the improvements and services.
Since the assessment will be levied against parcels of property as shown on the tax roll, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be spread just by parcel, not considering land use or parcel size, a single family parcel would be paying the same as a 50 unit apartment parcel or a large commercial establishment and this would not be equitable.
Therefore, the City and Engineer at the time of formation and the establishment of each subsequent zone, determined that the most appropriate method of apportioning costs was determined to be spreading each benefit zone costs on an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) basis. The single family detached residential unit or lot has been selected as the basic unit for calculation of assessments and is defined as one EDU. Each land-use in the District is converted to EDU's. The EDU method is seen as the most appropriate and equitable method of spread of benefit to each parcel from the improvements since it is based on land-use type and parcel size. Property within the District is assigned to one of the following categories.
Single Family Residential. Parcels zoned for single family detached home residential uses are assessed 1 EDU per dwelling unit. Parcels designated as Single Family Residential land-use will be assessed 1 EDU per dwelling unit or lot, including undeveloped subdivided residential lots and vacant land zoned for single family residential uses with a tentative or final tract map.
Multiple Family Residential. Multiple-family residential (including apartments, condominiums, townhomes, and duplexes) land use equivalencies are determined based on the number of dwelling units on each parcel. Due to population density and size of structure relative to the typical single family residence, each dwelling unit defined as multifamily residential, including apartments, condominiums, town homes, and duplexes, are assigned and EDU of 0.75 EDU . The EDU's assigned to a multiple-family residential parcel are calculated by multiplying the number of dwelling units by the EDU Factor of
0.75. Non-Residential. In converting non-residential properties to EDU's, the EDU Factor used in each zone of benefit was determined using the EDU density of the residential property for each zone. During formation and the establishment of each subsequent zone, the number of planned residential EDU located in the zone were divided by the associated acreage to arrive at an EDU factor per acre for non-residential parcels. All properties that are developed for non-residential uses are therefore assigned an EDU factor per acre by zone of benefit, all of which are shown in the table below. Non-Residential may include but not be limited to commercial, industrial, church, school, institutional, and other nonresidential uses.
Undeveloped Parcels. Undeveloped parcels receive a reduced level of benefit as compared to developed parcels. Undeveloped parcels therefore are assessed at 20% of Packet Page 540
CITY OF NEWARK PART D
LANDSCAPING AND LIGHTING DISTRICT NO. 19 METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT 29 the non-residential rate per acre for each zone of benefit. This includes all lots designated as undeveloped or vacant without a tentative or final tract map but does not include easements or streets, whether private or public, which are non-assessable.
Exempt Parcels. - Publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the improvements. 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, public parkways, public property designated open space, and any portion of public property that is not used for business purposes similar to private residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.
Also exempted from the assessments are private streets, utility easements, homeowner’s or property owner’s association common areas (except club houses, community centers, parking lots, etc.) and any other parcels that do not receive a special and direct benefit from the improvements.
The following table summarizes the EDU Factors by zone of benefit for each land use category.
Parcels within each zone may be assessed once it is anticipated that improvements will need to be maintained or reserve funds will need to be collected for the ensuing fiscal year.
The table below summarizes both the maximum and applied assessment rates per EDU for Fiscal Year 2024-25.

Item F. 3.
DATE 06/13/2024
TO Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM Soren Fajeau, Public Works Director
SUBJECT Adopt resolutions approving the 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan project lists with funding recommendations; and provide feedback on the draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
Since the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Overview was presented to the City Council in January 2024, staff has completed an evaluation and ranking of all projects submitted for consideration and available fund balance estimates have been revised based on updated revenue projections. Staff will present to the City Council its 2024-2026 CIP project funding recommendations and a draft of the 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document that includes an overview of the project selection process, summary of financing sources and funded projects, revenue estimates, future funding needs and project descriptions.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt resolutions approving the 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan project funding recommendations. There is a need for multiple approvals to account for City Council real property interests (see attached Resolutions 1 - 7, Exhibit 7A). These decisions would be final. The entirety of the final 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document will be developed based on City Council and public feedback on tonight's Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document (see attached) and brought forth for final adoption with the Biennial Budget on June 27, 2024.
BACKGROUND
As part of the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget and Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) preparation, the Public Works Department is coordinating the development of the CIP budget component. The general purpose of the CIP component of each biennial budget is to identify and prioritize capital improvement projects for potential funding. Projects can include street, park, and building construction as well as specific maintenance projects for existing infrastructure. Feasibility studies and master plans to help identify and quantify future projects are also typically included in the CIP, along with new equipment purchases greater than $10,000.
Packet Page 554
The CIP development process commenced in November 2023 with a call for projects to all City departments and members of the City Council. An overview of the CIP process, a summary of the majority of the projects submitted for consideration, prioritization criteria for project selection, and available funding sources were presented to the City Council as an informational item in January 2024. Since then, staff has completed a detailed evaluation and ranking of all projects submitted for the City Council’s consideration. The following describes the overall process for selecting project funding recommendations.
Critical Issues
Projects submitted for consideration must satisfy at least one of the following five critical issues identified in the City’s Strategic Plan:
Public Safety Services - Provide a level of public safety services that will protect our community members, property, and community assets.
Education - Support, encourage and offer opportunities and programs that facilitate quality community education.
Quality of Life - Provide programs, services, and facilities that make Newark a desirable and healthy place to live.
Community Development – Make development decisions that maintain a vibrant, balanced, quality community.
City Government Operations – Operate a City government that enables the organization to meet the service demands of the community.
Priority Levels
Projects were then categorized into three priority levels:
Priority Level 1 (Mandatory): Projects that meet a federal, state, or local legal or regulatory requirement, satisfy a critical risk management issue to ensure public safety, or serve to preserve and protect the City’s existing assets and public infrastructure.
Priority Level 2 (Necessary): Projects that are considered necessary but not mandatory as they would not clearly address a critical legal, safety, or asset-protection need.
Projects at this level could be funded by a consensus priority opinion of the City Council for the benefit of the community. This can also include projects that would provide a local match for outside funding sources, provide a definitive service level increase, or would complete the final phase of a multi-phased project. Feasibility studies and master plans are also typically categorized as Priority Level 2.
Priority Level 3 (Desirable): All other projects that do not satisfy Level 1 or Level 2 criteria.
Immediate Need
In addition to these primary Priority Levels, projects were also evaluated based on the Packet Page 555
extent of the immediate need to help finalize recommendations for funding. For example, there could be projects that are needed to preserve an existing asset and are listed as Priority Level 1, but the need may be three to five years into the future rather than immediate. Within the context of the identified Priority Levels, projects were evaluated for immediate need based on the following criteria:
Repair or replacement of assets that have reached the end of their useful life and either compromise public safety or experience a high level of public use Repair or replacement of assets that would otherwise prevent more expensive repair or replacement in the future
Projects for which the design has been previously funded and will be ready for construction during the upcoming biennial budget cycle
Projects which are partially funded by outside grant funds and will be ready for construction during the upcoming biennial budget cycle
Maintenance Impact
Staffing constraints and maintenance impacts are also an important consideration in the selection of projects. Regardless of funding availability, there is a limit to the number of projects which can be designed and/or constructed in a single year due to staffing constraints in the Engineering and Maintenance Divisions of the Public Works Department. Projects must be evaluated based on the resulting long-term maintenance needs following completion.
Project Funding
The availability of funding is the final major factor in establishing project funding recommendations. The City has the following major sources of funding for capital improvement projects:
Gas Taxes. Gas Taxes is a broad category of funding that primarily consists of ongoing direct local distribution of funds through the State of California Highway Users Tax Account, the State Road Maintenance Rehabilitation Account, Measure BB Transportation Sales Tax, and Vehicle Registration funds through the Alameda County Transportation Commission. The City typically utilizes these funds for ongoing street maintenance programs that include pavement resurfacing; curb, gutter and sidewalk replacement; street tree maintenance; traffic calming measures; and other street maintenance needs. The City currently receives approximately $4.3 million per year through these sources.
Capital Funds. Capital Funds can be utilized for any type of project and are typically generated through budget surpluses and transfers from the General Fund or other major fund sources.
Community Development Maintenance Fund. This fund is a resource for conducting feasibility studies, master plans, or other projects that directly support the City’s General Plan.
Park Impact Fees. Park Impact Fees can be utilized to acquire new park land and to complete improvement projects at existing parks.
Packet Page 556
Development Impact Fees. This category of funding includes Public Safety Impact Fees, Community Service Impact Fees, and Traffic Impact Fees. These funds can be utilized when a project-specific nexus has been identified for the respective impact fee category.
Outside Transportation and Other Grant Funding. Staff is regularly pursuing opportunities for discretionary funding from various federal, state and regional resources for transportation, parks and other types of projects. Outside grant funding for larger projects is essential for preserving local funds in each of the categories above.
Master Plans In Progress
The City currently has several master plan studies underway, which, upon completion, will each include extensive recommendations for future project funding needs. These master plans include the following:
Active Transportation Plan (an update to the Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan) Broadband Master Plan
Citywide Parks Master Plan update
Climate Action Plan update
Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan update
Facilities Master Plan
Local Hazard Mitigation Plan
Public Art Master Plan update
Sea Level Rise Assessment and Adaptation Plan
Technology Master Plan
Urban Forest Master Plan
All of these plans are either planned or currently in progress and many are scheduled for completion later this calendar year. As these plans are finalized, the Capital Improvement Plan should be revisited to assess funding priorities.
Current Backlog of Projects
There is a significant backlog of funded projects that are not yet completed. While most of these projects are underway and being actively worked on by staff, many projects are still in the planning stage. There is a need for additional project management support for building maintenance projects and parks projects as well as design services. Staff is currently working to obtain additional contractual support services in these areas to deliver these projects and staff will provide funding recommendations for these services during the meeting.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Staff will provide an overview of its CIP project funding recommendations based on updated fund balance projections. CIP projects have been separated into different categories based on the nature of the projects and recommended funding source.
However, this does not preclude other revenue sources from potentially being used to fund projects included in the CIP.
Gas Tax funded projects. Based on updated revenue projections, the anticipated Gas Packet Page 557
Tax revenue for the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget cycle is approximately $8.75 million, which reflects a decrease of 6% from the $9.3 million projected during the CIP General Overview presentation to the City Council in January 2024. However, after the reconciliation of completed projects and identifying projects previously approved in the CIP that are no longer required, staff has identified approximately $4.65 million of additional available Gas Tax funds, bringing the available Gas Tax fund balance to approximately $13.4 million for the next two-year period.
In addition, the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) recently informed staff that the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) will recommend awarding $15 million of Regional Measure 3 (RM3) funds to the City of Newark for use towards the construction of projects within the Dumbarton corridor, which includes several of the projects that are currently included in the CIP as unfunded projects or were submitted for funding consideration with the 2024-2026 CIP. This formal action is anticipated to take place in June 2024. The projects anticipated to receive this funding are listed in the table below for Transportation and Other Grant Funds projects.
This table also lists the federal funding for several projects, including One Bay Area Grant Program Cycle 3 (OBAG-3) funds in the amount of $5.14 million for the Old Town PDA Streetscape Improvements, the Federal Lands Access Program (FLAP) grant in the amount of $8.9 million for the Thornton Avenue Complete Streets project, and $3.0 million in Community Project Funding as earmarked by Congressman Ro Khanna and Senator Alex Padilla for the Thornton Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation projects, Phases 1 and 2. State earmark funding provided through State Assemblymember Alex Lee is also shown in the amount of $3.0 million total for the Old Town PDA Streetscape Improvements and Quiet Zones Implementation.
Descriptions for the projects listed in the Transportation and Other Grant Funds table below can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed.
This additional regional funding would allow the City to minimize the use of Gas Tax funds as matching requirements for larger projects and therefore create more opportunities for the completion of pavement maintenance on local streets and other local standalone projects.
Staff is recommending $9.8 million for the City’s street pavement maintenance, Packet Page 558
concrete repair, street tree maintenance, and other ongoing citywide street maintenance programs that are funded with outside gas tax resources. This includes a recommended increase in the City’s annual pavement maintenance program from approximately $2.5 million per year to $4.0 million per year. The remaining $900,000 is for ongoing citywide work as needed for:
• Curb, Gutter and Sidewalk Replacement
• Street Tree Maintenance
• Traffic Calming Measures
• Citywide Accessible Pedestrian Ramps
• Thermoplastic Street Striping
Newark’s current overall Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is 72 on a scale of 0-100.
This reflects a one-point drop from a PCI of 73 in 2022. The latest Citywide Pavement Management Report estimates that at the current annual funding level of $2.5 million per year, the City’s overall PCI will drop to 69 in five years. The Report further estimates that an estimated annual pavement maintenance budget of $4.0 million will be required over the next 5 years to maintain the City’s overall PCI at its current level of 72 and approximately $5.5 million per year over the next five years to return the City’s overall PCI to a desired level of 75.
With the Old Town PDA Streetscape Improvements and Thornton Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation (Phases 1 and 2) projects taking place over the next few years, Newark can expect an additional overall increase to the Citywide PCI of approximately two points. Again, these projects are being funded with outside federal, state and regional grants which allow for increased expenditures of Gas Tax revenue on local streets.
In addition to annual street maintenance projects, staff is recommending $1.2 million to fund the construction of standalone street improvement projects which were previously funded through the initial design phase only. These projects include additional funding for the Cherry Street and Mowry Avenue Median Modifications, and the Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon Installations on Newark Boulevard (at Brittany Avenue/Ruschin Drive) and on Cedar Boulevard (at Milani Avenue).
Descriptions for the projects listed in the Gas Tax Funds table below can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed. The total list of projects recommended for Gas Tax funding is as follows:
Packet Page 559
The recommended list of gas tax-funded projects totals $11,000,000. With the total Gas Tax Fund Balance of $13,450,000, this would leave a Gas Tax fund balance of $2,450,000 at the end of the 2024-2026 budget cycle. Staff recommends reserving this remaining fund balance for unanticipated expenses, matching funds for additional outside funding resources, or for other potentially important Gas Tax projects that may emerge.
Descriptions for Gas Tax projects not recommended for funding listed in the Gas Tax Funds table below can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed. The following gas tax-funded projects submitted for consideration are not recommended for additional or full funding at this time:
*Shortfall amount only. Further discussion on Quiet Zones Implementation is below along with explanation of other possible funding sources to address the shortfall amount.
Staff recommends deferring design development and construction of sidewalk and median landscape improvements on Central Avenue until the construction of the Central Avenue Railroad Overpass project is well underway. This area will be congested with detoured traffic during the construction phase of the overpass project and additional projects under construction simultaneously should be limited. In addition, funding for the implementation of the complete Traffic Signal Interconnect project should be deferred until a full assessment of the equipment needs and adaptive traffic control systems scope has been identified along with sufficient coordination with the Packet Page 560
Broadband Master Plan findings and infrastructure recommendations.
A Railroad Quiet Zones Study was previously completed and confirmed that implementation of Quiet Zones at all City at-grade railroad crossings is feasible. Staff is continuing to pursue additional sources of funding to fully fund a Quiet Zones Implementation project while the complete design for all crossings is underway. It is possible that the Quiet Zones Implementation project could be completed in phases if only partial funding is available. The total cost of the project is currently estimated at $8.0 million. With the pending RM3 funding, $4.0 million is anticipated to be secured, leaving a $4.0 million shortfall. Upon completion of the detailed design, the cost estimate may be able to be reduced. The project could be separated into two implementation phases depending on available funding at the time the design has been completed.
The Lindsay Tract Street and Storm Drainage Improvements project is currently on hold and remains in the Capital Improvement Plan as a partially funded project in the amount of $2.7 million. Staff recommends retaining the project at this amount until a future re-evaluation of the scope and cost associated with the related Area Improvement District (AID) can be completed and further analyzing what improvements can potentially be completed without reinitiating the AID.
Capital Fund projects. After final reconciliation of the Newark Civic Center project and the identification of projects previously approved in the CIP that are now completed or are no longer required, the estimated available Capital Fund balance for the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget is $5.25 million. Staff recommends funding projects totaling approximately $4.4 million, which would leave a remaining unallocated fund balance of approximately $850,000. Staff recommends that this balance be maintained for contractual services for project management support to deliver the backlog of building maintenance and landscape projects. The new project submissions recommended for funding utilizing Capital Funds are as follows (project descriptions for individual projects can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed):
Packet Page 561
In addition, staff recommends funding the following previously unfunded Capital Fund projects that departments resubmitted for consideration (project descriptions for individual projects can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed):
The recommended Capital Fund project total is $4,396,000 in estimated costs for the two-year cycle.
The following new submitted projects and projects previously unfunded and re-submitted for consideration during this two-year cycle are not recommended for funding at this time (project descriptions for individual projects can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed):
Packet Page 562
Community Development Maintenance Fund projects. Community Development Maintenance Funds may be used to pay for feasibility studies or master plans. The estimated fund balance for Community Development Maintenance Funds beginning July 1, 2024 is approximately $3.7 million.
The following studies are recommended for funding with Community Development Maintenance Funds (project descriptions for individual projects can be found in the attached Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan budget document on the page numbers listed):
The proposed projects totaling $2.2 million would leave $1.5 million remaining in the Community Development Maintenance Fee Fund.
Park Impact Fee projects. The current unappropriated fund balance is approximately $5.8 million. There are no additional park projects recommended for funding at this time. Staff recommends that the City Council receive and consider the findings associated with the Citywide Parks Master Plan Update prior to making any decisions on funding future projects. This study is anticipated to be completed in the fall of 2024.
Segmentation.
As a number of Councilmembers have real property interests within proximity of various CIP projects for consideration, those particular projects will be segmented and considered first without participation by the Councilmembers that have the real property interest with a final decision made by the remaining Councilmembers. Staff has randomly selected the order in which those projects will be considered first. Once Packet Page 563
consideration and final approval of those items has concluded, the full City Council will consider the balance of the CIP projects and will not reopen discussion of the previously approved items.
After approval of all project lists, staff will solicit feedback on the Draft 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan that includes an overview of the project selection process, summary of financing sources and funded projects, revenue estimates, future funding needs and project descriptions. A final 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan will be developed and included in the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget for City Council approval in June.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact related to approving the CIP project funding recommendations lists, which show allocations of funds already received or funds the City anticipates to receive. All approved projects and funding allocations will be incorporated into the final 2024-2026 Capital Improvement Plan for City Council consideration with approval of the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget on June 27, 2024.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
OVERVIEW
The City of Newark’s two-year budget is
comprised of the Biennial Budget, the
Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), and the
Five-Year Forecast. In preparing the CIP,
the Five-Year Forecast provides significant
guidance by establishing priorities for the
City, identifying special needs, and
establishing the future direction of the City.
The purpose of the Biennial Capital
Improvement Plan is to identify and
prioritize capital improvement projects for
funding. Capital improvement projects
include street and park construction and
rehabilitation projects, construction and/or
repairs to City facilities, acquisitions of new
equipment that are not part of a
department’s operating budget, feasibility
studies to identify and quantify future
projects, and major equipment purchases.
By their nature, capital improvement
projects generally tend to be special, onetime “events” designed to address a significant community need. Major capital
projects can often take several years to
complete, with both funding and
construction planned in several specific
phases.
Some CIP projects result in additional
operating and maintenance costs after
completion of the project, while others may
result in reduced maintenance costs. For
example, a street improvement project can
reduce future street maintenance costs for a
period of time after completion of the
project. On the other hand, construction of
a new recreational facility will likely result
in additional maintenance and operating
costs; however, some of those costs may be
offset by new revenues from the facility.
All these factors must be carefully
considered when prioritizing projects for
funding.
CIP PROJECTS
Generally, all projects which involve
expenditures of $10,000 or more, are
included in the CIP. There are some special
types of projects or purchases costing more
than $10,000 that are not included in the
CIP. Such projects include equipment
normally replaced through the Equipment
Replacement fund, such as the routine
vehicle replacement program, and leasing
of property or vehicles.
THE CIP PROCESS
As part of the 2024-2026 Biennial Budget
and Capital Improvement Plan preparation,
the Public Works Department coordinates
the development of the CIP budget
component. The process of developing the
CIP begins with the preparation of a list of
potential projects. These projects are
generally submitted by the City Council
and staff in response to a call for projects
request. In some instances, residents have
also made requests for desired projects.
After an initial review by the Executive
Team, detailed descriptions and cost
estimates are prepared for each project
chosen for further consideration. Possible
funding sources are also identified. This
information is then synthesized into an
initial comprehensive listing of all projects –
new proposed projects, previously
approved and funded projects, and
unfunded projects. After this information
has been quantified, all projects are
reviewed and prioritized by staff and then
provided as recommendations to the City
Council.

Several major factors were considered while
selecting projects for the 2024-2025 and
2025-2026 budget years: (1) evaluation of
Critical Issues; (2) available funding sources
and the need for maintaining sufficient unallocated reserves; (3) staffing constraints and maintenance impacts; (4) project priority level criteria; and (5) immediacy of project need.
(1) Evaluation of Critical Issues previously
identified by the Executive Team
Critical Issues are used to help guide the
selection of projects - Public Safety Services,
Education, Quality of Life, Community
Development and City Government
Operations. These Critical Issues are
summarized below:
(2) Available funding sources and the need
for maintaining sufficient unallocated
reserves
All potential projects were evaluated based
on the availability of funding sources. Gas
tax revenues are the primary source of
funds for street maintenance and
improvement projects. The major source for
most other capital projects is the Capital
Improvement Fund. Development Impact
Fees, which are assessed to new private
developments, are a component of Capital
Funds but can only be used on specific
projects where a nexus is established
between development and the individual
project. The majority of the funds for
capital projects are derived from
unallocated General Funds. These are
discretionary funds that may be used on
any project. A complete list of funding
sources is provided on the following pages
and a revenue estimate summary is
provided on page 211.
(3) Staffing constraints and maintenance
impacts
Regardless of funding availability, there is a
limit to the number of projects which can be
designed and/or constructed in a single
year due to staffing constraints. Projects
also must be evaluated based on the
resulting long-term maintenance needs
following completion. A project should not
be built (or equipment purchased) if there
are inadequate resources for operations and
maintenance.
(4) Priority Level Criteria
Three priority levels are defined to assist
with project prioritization and include Level
One, Level Two, and Level Three.
Priority Level One projects are of the
highest priority and are considered
mandatory. Level One projects are those
being driven by a legal or regulatory
requirement, are needed to meet a safety
obligation or minimize a liability risk, or
serve to preserve the City’s existing assets
and infrastructure.
Critical Issues
Public Safety Services - Provide a level
of public safety services that will protect
our community members, property, and
community assets.
Education - Support, encourage, and
offer opportunities and programs that
facilitate quality community education.
Quality of Life - Provide programs,
services, and facilities that make Newark
a desirable and healthy place to live.
Community Development - Make
development decisions that maintain a
vibrant, balanced, quality community.
City Government Operations - Operate
a City government that enables the
organization to meet service demands of
the community.
Packet Page 628
196
Priority Level Two projects are considered
necessary projects, but do not satisfy Level
One criteria. A project could be ranked at
Level Two if there is a consensus by the
City Council that it should be funded.
Other Level Two criteria includes: projects
that demand local funding in order to
obtain an outside funding source; projects
that provide a needed service level increase;
projects for completion of a feasibility study
or master plan that would assist with
defining and prioritizing one or more
projects or other community needs; and
projects that are needed to complete a final
phase of a multi-phased project.
Priority Level Three projects are those that
are considered desirable, but do not fully
satisfy Level One or Level Two criteria at
the time of evaluation.
(5) Immediacy of Project Needs
In addition to these primary Priority Levels,
projects were also evaluated based on the
extent of the immediate need to help
finalize recommendations for funding. For
example, there could be projects that are
needed to preserve an existing asset and are
listed as Priority Level One, but the need
may be three to five years into the future
rather than immediate.
PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW
State law requires that the Planning
Commission review the CIP projects for
conformance with the General Plan. This
review is completed prior to formal City
Council adoption of the CIP.
MULTI-YEAR PROJECT FUNDING
Unlike some communities, Newark does
not normally budget funds over multiple
years toward the future construction of
specific projects. Instead, unbudgeted
Capital Funds are held in reserve and
applied toward a project upon
accumulation of sufficient funds to
complete a project or phase. Still, there are
projects which are phased over a number of
years to accommodate design and
construction requirements and other
factors.
FINANCING SOURCES AND
ALTERNATIVES
Capital funds, Gas Tax funds, and Park
Impact funds all represent “pay-as-you-go”
financing. Generally, this type of financing
is used to minimize interest and financing
costs. However, for some projects, longterm financing is either necessary or preferred.
Packet Page 629
197
SUMMARY OF FINANCING SOURCES
ACCUMULATED
FEES
Accumulated Fees can only be used for the specific purpose provided for in the Fee Schedule.
CAPITAL FUNDS
Capital funds can be used to fund any capital project. However, since Capital funds are derived from the General Fund, their use is discouraged if other fund sources are available.
DEVELOPMENT
IMPACT FEES
Development Impact Fees can only be used for specific capital projects. There is a maximum allocation per project based on the type of capital project.
GAS TAX FUNDS
Gas Tax funds can only be used for expenses related to street construction, maintenance, or design. This funding category includes state gas tax subventions, Measure B and Measure BB revenues, Traffic Congestion Relief Funds (Proposition 42), Alameda County Vehicle Registration Fee funds, and Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA/SB1) Funds.
GRANTS
CDBG*
Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) funds can only be used for projects within the designated CDBG Target Area. They can be used for street construction, community centers, etc.
Federal
Transportation
Act*
Funding from the Federal Transportation Act reauthorization (previously the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: a Legacy for Users, “SAFETEA-LU,” and the Transportation Efficiency Act for the 21st Century, “TEA 21”) can only be used for construction projects on eligible streets.
HSIP* The Federally funded Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is for specific traffic safety projects.
HWY-RR Grade
Separation
Program*
State Highway-Railroad Grade Separation Program funds can be used for grade separation projects.
SRTS/SR2S*
State (SRTS) and Federal (SR2S) Safe Routes to School funds can be used to correct identified safety hazards on school routes to promote walking/biking to schools.
Stimulus
Programs*
Federal economic stimulus funds have uses and constraints specific to each individual program. Transportation-related stimulus funding typically has constraints similar to the current Federal Transportation Act.
STIP*
State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funds can be used for capital projects that improve transportation. Funding is split 75%/25% between the Interregional Transportation Improvement Program (ITIP) and Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP).
TDA* Transportation Development Act (TDA), Article 3 funds can only be used to construct bike and pedestrian projects.

SUMMARY OF FINANCING SOURCES (continued)
PARK IMPROVEMENTS
Park Impact Fees
Park Impact Fees are collected with each new residential single- or multifamily development. Local Park Impact Fee funds can be used for park construction projects for a neighborhood park within the area where the development responsible for the funds is located or for community parks.
Regional Open
Space, Wildlife,
Shoreline, and
Parks Bond
Extension*
Funding through the Regional Open Space, Wildlife, Shoreline, and Parks Bond Extension (Measure WW) must be used on park construction projects. *Allocated to agencies on a competitive process or on the basis of population.

A LOOK FORWARD
Forecasting future funding availability and
needs is an inexact science at best. The
conservative approach to forecasting future
funding availability assumes modest
growth to projected gas tax revenues and no
significant changes to projected Capital
Fund revenue and other sources. Staff is
continuously monitoring evolving
projections for State and local gas tax
revenues. These projections are reflected in
the table entitled Revenue Estimate Summary
on the following page.
Although future funding needs can be
predicted by roughly prioritizing unfunded
projects already in the CIP, such forecasting
is often later upset by changing priorities
and unexpected needs. The cost of certain
identified projects is often unknown prior to
the completion of a needs study or
preliminary design. Even so, it is still
important to develop a general plan for
implementing major capital projects.
In order to continue to prioritize future
funding of the City’s project needs, the
following prioritization factors should be
considered:
Need Driven – The target date for some
projects is driven by an identified need. For
example, the replacement of the City
Administration Building was driven by the
need to replace an aging facility to
accommodate employees and related City
activities. A specific target date might be
set based on anticipated future space needs
or elimination of increasing and excessive
building maintenance costs.
Regulation/Law Driven – Some projects,
such as wheelchair ramp modifications, are
required as a result of changes in standards
or regulations or as the result of new
Federal or State laws.
Opportunity Driven – The target date for
the construction of some projects is driven
by an associated opportunity. The
availability of a State park grant might
allow completion of desired park
improvements.
Funding Driven – The target date for
construction of other projects may be
governed by available funding or funding
factors. For example, the target date for
construction of a particular project might be
tied to accumulation of the capital costs or
the ability to fund future operating costs.
Funding Source Driven – The construction
of specific projects which are eligible for
grant funds will be dictated by the
availability of those grant funds. For
example, Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds can be used for capital
projects in the Target Area. The timing for
their use will be governed by the
availability of those funds.
Relationship Driven – There are certain
types of projects which are dependent on
the timing of other related projects. For
example, the construction of a new
community center could allow for the
Senior Center to be moved into that
amenity, freeing use of the Senior Center for
other purposes.
Community Driven – Certain projects are
desired to improve the quality of life of
Newark residents and are not necessarily
tied to external factors. An example is the
Newark Skate Park. The target for
construction of such projects is thus driven
by a desire to improve the quality of life of
our residents and the City Council’s
priorities rather than outside influences.
Phasing Opportunities – Certain projects,
such as street maintenance projects, can
sometimes be completed in phases.

The City is responsible for the maintenance of approximately 18,000 trees, including approximately 13,000 street trees. The majority of street trees (9,600) are nearing maturity and are over 15 feet tall.
This proposed capital purchase includes a truck equipped with utility boxes and a hydraulicallyactuated aerial lift. This equipment will enable the City to respond to residents in a more timely manner and save money by removing unsafe hanging branches within one working day, removing unsafe trees, pruning street trees to facilitate street maintenance activities such as street sweeping and respond to other pruning requests such as street light, traffic signal and/or sign clearances.
Other uses for this equipment could include low-level park lighting maintenance, installation of Christmas lights and, if appropriate, emergency traffic signal maintenance. Currently, the City is spending in excess of $20,000 for emergency contract services. The life expectancy for this equipment is 15-20 years.

The current standard for storm water inlets (or catch basins) includes a fabricated steel grate design to allow as much water as possible into the inlet and yet prevent bike tires from dropping through.
Older inlets in the City typically have a cast iron grate, which have smaller openings and tend to clog. Also, removal of these heavy cast iron grates for both routine and emergency cleaning generally requires at least two maintenance workers. The City has a total of 91 cast iron inlet grates.
This project is part of the phased program to replace the cast iron grates with the steel grates. This first phase will replace approximately 15-25 catch basins.

The Police Department has not conducted formalized training in the area of deployment of forcible entry – breaching tools for officers that have not worked as part of the Department’s SWAT team during recent years.
Department staff believes that in order to improve response times for needed use of forcible entry - breaching tools, such as door rams, Halligan tools and bolt cutters at rapidly evolving emergency scenes (such as active shooters and other emergency rescue situations that may not be safe for other first responders) it would be beneficial for the Department to acquire and deploy additional breaching tools in the field at a fleet-wide level.
Although the use of such breaching tools may seem intuitive, further ensuring formalized training of officers who have not formally experienced the breaching training received by SWAT officers would ensure all officers are familiar with the appropriate deployment of breaching tools. Hence improving overall safety during resolution of incidents and reducing the incidence of injury.
In order to best accomplish the formalized training for both tenured and incoming personnel, staff also recommends the acquisition of a breaching - forcible entry training door.

A feasibility study assessing rental housing stock in the City of Newark and determining the need for a Rental Inspection program. This study will also prescribe funding sources and implementation of the program, which is expected to be a cost-recovery model funded by licensing or permitting costs paid by property owners who are part of the program, assess if current staffing levels will support such a program, and determine the cadence of proactive inspections. The cadence of the inspections may be determined by items such as the age of the building, number of units, permit history, and a history of complaints.
Owners of rental properties are responsible for maintaining their buildings in compliance with minimum housing standards. Newark currently depends on complaints from tenants to investigate allegations of substandard housing. Often, these investigations result in finding violations that impact not only the initial tenant but also the health and safety of all the occupants. Tenants are often hesitant to report substandard housing conditions for fear of retaliation, up to and including eviction.
A proactive inspection program would allow Newark to inspect rental stock to ensure they meet minimum housing standards and that all building maintenance and repairs are done in accordance with current building codes. A proactive inspection program ensures our residents are afforded a clean, safe, and healthy place to live.

An Urban Forest Master Plan is a guiding document that would provide the City with a long-term vision for the continued development and maintenance of its urban forest. No such plan currently exists.
Elements of the plan would likely include an update of the exiting Citywide tree inventory, assessment and potential update of City policies, documents and ordinances related to tree care, assessment of tree planting and maintenance programs, assessment of the overall tree canopy (public and private tree resources). This process would involve significant community engagement and coordination among multiple departments and divisions.

Vehicle pursuit intervention devices can help in tracking individuals in vehicles who choose to evade law enforcement. The desired system is a pursuit management technology that contains a miniature GPS tag and a launcher mounted on a police vehicle. A compressed-air launcher, mounted behind the grille of a patrol vehicle, uses a laser system to target the fleeing vehicle. There is also an option for handheld launchers. Both platforms deploy a GPS tag onto a suspect vehicle which allows for real time monitoring.
The technology would be installed onto four patrol vehicles and would thus be deployed throughout the City of Newark.
Once the GPS Tag is launched, dispatchers and personnel can view the location and movements of the wanted vehicle in real-time on a secure, web-based mapping portal. In addition to accurate mapping, critical information including travel direction, speed, and traffic activity is transmitted every three to five seconds allowing for knowledge of suspect vehicle movements. The purpose of vehicle pursuit intervention devices is to track and ultimately capture a suspect vehicle (and suspect occupant) when a vehicle fails to yield to police officers.
