AGENDA ITEM NO. 1.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and Adopt Resolution No. 6104, Certifying Compliance with State Law with respect to the Levying of General and Special Taxes, Assessments and Property-Related Fees and Charges for Fiscal Year 2024/2025.

Executive Summary
Proposition 218 (Prop 218) was approved by the state’s voters in November 1996. In general, the intent of Prop 218 is to ensure that all taxes and most charges to property owners are subject to voter approval.

Accordingly, the County’s Auditor-Controller requires an annual resolution indicating the City is meeting Prop 218 requirements in order to process FY 2024-25 secured tax roll bills. The County will not place any existing or additional taxes, assessments, fees or charges on the tax roll without a certification resolution on file with their office. Consideration of the attached resolution certifying compliance is necessary for the 2024-2025 year.

Background
Proposition 218 (Prop 218) was approved by the state’s voters in November 1996. Prop 218's requirements span a large spectrum, including local initiatives, water standby charges, legal standards of proof, election procedures and the calculation and use of sewer assessment revenues. In general, the intent of Prop 218 is to ensure that all taxes and most charges to property owners are subject to voter approval. Accordingly, the County’s Auditor-Controller requires an annual resolution indicating the City is meeting Prop 218 requirements in order to process FY 2024-25 secured tax roll bills.

Review & Analysis
The proposed resolution certifies compliance with Proposition 218 and includes a hold harmless and 7 Resolution No. 6104
indemnification provision for administrative expenses of the County associated with the collection of the City of Soledad’s taxes, assessments, fees, and charges other than the 1% ad valorem tax. The County will not place any existing or additional taxes, assessments, fees, or charges on the tax roll without a certification resolution on file with their office. The attached resolution is necessary for the 2024-2025 year.

Financial Considerations
None.

Alternatives
Adopt the recommended resolution.

Do not approve the attached resolution.

Planning/CEQA
The approving of the resolution “Certifying Compliance with State Law with respect to the Levying of General and Special Taxes, Assessments and Property-Related Fees and Charges” is not considered a project for the purposes of CEQA since it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or indirect impact to the environment.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Mike Howard, Finance Director
MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 2.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad adopt Resolution No.6113, Approving a Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Soledad and the Soledad Police Officers Association Beginning July 1, 2024 and Ending June 30, 2027.

Executive Summary
The current three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Soledad Police Officers Association (SPOA) will expire on June 30, 2024. Union Representatives and the City’s designated negotiators began negotiations in April 2024 for a successor agreement. Through several meetings the parties reached a tentative agreement on June 3, 2024. The Union Representatives presented the new tentative agreement to the membership on June 5, 2024, where the agreement was ratified by the membership. The MOU is now before the City Council for consideration and adoption.

Background
On July 21, 2021, the City Council approved a three-year MOU with the Soledad Police Officers Association. The MOU, which sets forth specific negotiated terms and conditions of employment, is set to expire on June 30, 2024. The City and representatives of the Soledad Police Officers Association began negotiations in April 2024 for a successor MOU, and have reached a tentative agreement.

Review & Analysis
The City was notified that the tentative agreement was ratified by the SPOA membership on June 5, 2024. Below are key tentative agreements reflected in the MOU:

Term: Three years, ef ective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2027 11 Compensation: In year one, a four percent (4.00%) salary increase ef ective the first full pay period of July 2024, and in year two, an additional three and one-half percent (3.50%) salary increase ef ective the first full pay period of July 2025, and in year three, an additional three and one-quarter percent (3.25%) salary increase ef ective the first full pay period of July 2026.

In the second year of the MOU, Bilingual Pay will be increased from $150/month to $225/month on the first full pay period in July 2025
A Sworn Of ice will be paid 3% of their base pay when assigned as a Field Training Of icer (FTO). The FTO Pay will only be paid on the days the of icer actually works as an FTO. This changes current practice where if an of icer worked only one day as an FTO they were paid FTO Pay for the entire pay period.

A Seargent that is assigned as a Detective will be paid $55/day as Stand-by Pay if and only if the Chief or designee formally places the Detective on Stand-by in writing.

Other Benefits: The annual uniform allowance will be $1,000, payable in two installments; $500 in October and $500 in April. Unit members will now be responsible for the purchase and maintenance of their own uniforms which will reduce City staf time ordering and processing invoices for payment of annual uniforms. This new provision will combine Article 4 Uniform Maintenance Allowance and Article 17 Purchase of Uniforms
In addition, the City will contribute up to $600 annually, in December, to an employee’s 457 plan. The City will contribute $ .20 (twenty cents) for every $1.00 (one dollar) an employee contributes up to the maximum of $600. In order to receive the contribution, the employee must be in active status at the time of the City contribution.

An additional 5% of base pay will be paid as Longevity Pay once a unit member has reached 20 years of service with the City as a sworn of icer.

The Health Club Membership stipend will be increased from $15/month to $35/month.

The City will add Juneteenth as an observed City Holiday.

Full details including additional contract terms are attached in the attached Memorandum of Understanding, marked as “Exhibit A”.

Financial Considerations
The cost of the 3-year agreement will be approximately $351,500. Year one of the agreement will cost approximately $143,600, year two will be approximately $117,500, and year three will be approximately $90,400. The current year budget (FY 2024-25) will cover the increase for the first year and the second and third years will be programed into the future budgets.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Kao Nou Yang. Community & Economic Development Director MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and adopt Resolution No.6114, “Approving a Contract Amendment No. 2 for Professional Services with CSG Consultants, Inc. for a total not exceed $225,000 to Provide Building Division Services, Stormwater Management Services, a Contract Building Official , and Other Related Services.” Executive Summary
CSG Consultants Inc. has provided professional services to the City of Soledad since 2011, particularly in the Community and Economic Development Department. The contract for professional services has been extended annually. The professional services include a Contract Building Official, building plan review, civil plan review, stormwater compliance, and enforcing construction and demolition recycling requirements. City staff is seeking approval of Amendment No. 2 for a 6-month extension for these services in the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year (July 2024 – December 2024) and adding new services like Stormwater Inspections and additional compliance.

Background
CSG Consultants Inc. has been providing services to the City of Soledad since 2011, mainly for residential and commercial plan checks, fire inspections, and backup inspection services. Funding for these projects has been paid directly by applicants through the payment of permit fees to the City.

In July 2016, the City entered into a side letter with CSG to provide Permit Technician Services to assist at the front counter. Subsequently, on October 3, 2016, the Building Official retired from the City of Soledad. Following this event, CSG ceased the provision of Permit Technician services to the City but continued to offer the services of a Contracted Building Official, as well as plan check services. The 15 professional relationship between the CSG employees assigned to work in Soledad and both the staff and the public has been positively regarded. As a means to ensure ongoing quality public service with a forward-thinking approach, CSG Consultants has undertaken the provision of inspection services to the City on a part-time basis.

Due to an increase in State reporting requirements, CSG has assumed additional responsibilities to maintain the progress of current projects, specifically in the realm of civil engineering reviews.

Moreover, CSG has assumed the responsibility for stormwater plan review tasks, which were previously undertaken by Harris and Associates. Furthermore, in compliance with CalRecycle mandates, external CSG staff is supporting the City of Soledad and the local CSG team in adhering to the intricate construction and demolition recycling requirements.

On June 21, 2023, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 of the contract for professional services with CSG Consultants, extending the contract for an additional year with the intention of conducting a Request for Proposal/Request for Quote for the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year.

Review & Analysis
The current contract for CSG, approved in June 2023, is set to expire on June 30, 2024. City staff is requesting to amend the current contract to extend it by 6 months (July 2024 to December 2024). This extension will allow the City to prepare a request for proposal/qualifications (RFP/RFQ) to solicit proposals for building services, engineering plan check services, and stormwater management services.

Currently, CSG is paid for the following services at the following rates but not limited to:

CSG Services Provided:

Fiscal Year 23-24 (Current) Per
Hour
Fiscal Year 24-25 (Proposed)
Per Hour
Building Official - Staff $139.00 $146.00
Fire Marshall / Inspector - Staff $127.00 $135.00
Building Inspections $110.00 $115.00
Fire Inspections $135.00 $135

Additional Services:

Fiscal year 23-24 (Current) Per
Hour
Fiscal Year 24-25 (Proposed)
Per Hour
Stormwater Inspections (Trained
and Performed by Building
Official)
N/A $115.00
The Full Proposed Scope of Services and Staff is in detailed and attached with Exhibit “A” the Professional Service Agreement.

The estimated cost for extending the service for six months, from July 2024 to December 2024 in the 2024-2025 fiscal year, is expected to not exceed $225,000.. It is anticipated that the fees will continue to be funded by ongoing developments that pay for permits, with the majority of the funding coming from dedicated project development reimbursement accounts outside of the General Fund Budget.

Currently, the revenue from building and plan checks covers all the costs of the contract. 16 Resolution No. 6114
Exhibit A
A - CSG Proposal to the City of Soledad - Contract Extension CSG has been delivering satisfactory services to the City since 2011. However, the City has not conducted a Request for Proposals (RFP) for these services since that period. The City is scheduled to conduct an RFP/RFQ in the 2nd Quarter of 2024 to request proposals for building services, civil engineering plan check services and stormwater management services. It is expected that a substantial number of consultants will submit their proposals, and a service proposal will be presented to the Council before December of 2024.

Financial Considerations
The total contract amount with CSG is anticipated to cost an amount not to exceed $225,000.00 which will be funded by a combination of applicant deposits and a line item in the Building Department (Account 100-5160-3000).

Alternatives
Approve the Resolution and proposed contract for FY 24-25; or Approve the Resolution with modification to the proposed contract; or Do not approve the contract amendment. This alternative would require immediate considerations of an alternate method to provide services at the current time.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed professional services are not considered a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Because the professional service agreement does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

Public Notice Requirements
None Required.

23 SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6117, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving a Consulting Services Agreement Task Order No. 3 in the Amount of $32,770 with Pavement Engineering Inc. for Engineering Support Services to Perform a Pavement Evaluation for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project and Authorize the City Manager to Execute Said Task Order on Behalf of the City of Soledad
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Donald Wilcox, Public Works Director, Alex Ramos, Assistant Engineer MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 4.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad Consider and Adopt Resolution No. 6117, “Approving a Consulting Services Agreement Task Order No. 3 in the Amount of $32,770 with Pavement Engineering Inc. for Engineering Support Services to Perform a Pavement Evaluation for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute said Task Order on Behalf of the City of Soledad”.

Executive Summary
On August 31, 2023, the City of Soledad received an RSTP Competitive Grant in the amount of $2,758,000 for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Street Project. As part of this project, City Staff aims to improve the pavement condition along the West Street corridor to deliver a better project for the new proposed improvements and road diet. Due to the substantial amount of effort required to prepare a pavement evaluation report for the rehabilitation and reconstruction options for the West Street corridor, it is recommended that the City Council approve Task Order No. 3 with Pavement Engineering Inc.

Background
On August 31, 2023, the City of Soledad received an Award Notification from TAMC in the amount of $2,758,000 for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project as part of the Competitive Grant Program.

On March 6, 2024, the City Council approved a consulting services agreement with MNS Engineers, 24 Inc. for the design and construction management for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project in an amount not to exceed of $856,075. As part of this project, various improvements will be constructed to improve multimodal mobility for all types of roadway users on West Street between Front Street and Gabilan Drive. These improvements include but are not limited to, buffered bike lanes, a road diet, buffered bike lanes, pedestrian crossings, and marked crosswalks. This project will have funding to improve the pavement condition along the West Street corridor in the form of rehabilitation or reconstruction to deliver a better project and a major roadway with a longer lifespan.

Review & Analysis
As part of MNS’s proposal for the West Street Road Diet and Complete Street Project, work related to identifying the specific pavement treatment and therefore field-testing was not included to save cost. It requires a substantial amount of effort to perform field testing to determine the asphalt layer thickness and overall structural section condition throughout the corridor.

Additionally, the City of Soledad submitted an application for the Rubberized Pavement Grant Program 16th Cycle for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 to support the use of Rubberized Asphalt Concrete (RAC) products on one or more street maintenance projects. On February 8, 2024, the City received an award notification for the Rubberized Pavement Grant Program in the amount of $103,060 to be utilized in the Front Street Maintenance Project. To supplement funding for the pavement treatment for the West Street Project, Staff proposes to use the funds received through the Rubberized Pavement Grant Program to partially fund the pavement treatment for West Street in addition to Front Street and therefore requires an analysis of how much RAC along the West Street corridor can be utilized.

The City of Soledad regularly utilizes consulting services to help support facilitating projects to ensure successful project delivery. As a result, the City sought out formal Requests for Qualifications for Professional Engineering and Other Support Services. On November 2, 2022, under Resolution No. 5888, the Soledad City Council approved and established a new On-Call Consultant List to provide Professional and Engineering Support Services. The Public Works Department has since utilized the new On-Call Consultant List to support efforts to complete infrastructure upgrades, capital improvements, and other engineering-related projects.

Pavement Engineering Inc. (PEI) is on the City’s on-call consultant list and is qualified and familiar with the City’s streets through the Pavement Management Program Update, therefore Staff requested a proposal from PEI to perform a pavement evaluation to provide rehabilitation and reconstruction options for the West Street Corridor. PEI’s scope of work will include:

Task 1 – Pavement Evaluation Services
A. Deflection Testing and Coring
B. Native Soil Sample Collection to determine R-value
C. Deflection Analysis
D. Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Options
Task 2 – Provide Design Assistance
A. Design Approach for Plans and Specifications
B. Reviewing PS&E Package
City Staff reviewed the PEI proposal and recommends approval of the budget, scope, and schedule. The City’s Standard contractual forms will be used.
25 Resolution No. 6117
Exhibit A
Financial Considerations
The cost for services for this Task Order from PEI will be funded through the RSTP Competitive Grant.

Alternatives
Approve the resolution as presented; or
Reject the proposed resolution. This is not recommended as the Pavement Evaluation serves as a crucial component in the success of the West Street Road Diet and Complete Streets Project and staff does not have the capacity to undertake the task.

Planning/CEQA
The West Street Complete Street Project has been determined to be categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines in accordance with Title 14, Chapter 3, Article 19, Section 15301, Class 1 – Existing Facilities, Section 15302, Class 2 – Replacement or Reconstruction and Section 15303, Class 3 – New Construction or conversion of Small Structures.

Class 1 consists of minor alterations of existing facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use.

Class 2 involves the reconstruction of existing facilities with existing facilities involving negligible or no expansion of capacity. Class 3 consists of the construction of limited number of new, small facilities or structures. Funding would allow for the reconstruction of West Street, which is an existing facility, but with no changes to capacity.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

FROM: Donald Wilcox, Public Works Director, Alex Ramos, Assistant Engineer MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 5.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad Consider and Adopt Resolution No. 6118, “Accepting the Dixi Street Sewer and Water Replacement Improvements, City Project No. W22- 7 & WW22-03 Project as Complete by Anderson Pacific Engineering Construction, Inc. and Authorizing the Release of Retention in the Amount of $90,574.81”.

Executive Summary
Work done by Anderson Pacific Engineering Construction, Inc. (APEC) has been completed and inspected. Staff is therefore recommending that the Dixi Street Sewer and Water Replacement Improvements, City Project No. W22-07 & WW22-03 Project be accepted, and that the City release the retention payment to APEC.

Background
The City of Soledad received $6,285,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 stimulus package distributed to local governments throughout the United States with strict guidelines on the use and timeframe of the funds needed to be expended. On December 15, 2021, Staff presented to the City Council a list of Public Works infrastructure projects and proposed allocating $4 million to complete these projects which was thereafter approved by the City Council.

As part of the presented project list taken to Council, the Dixi Street Sewer and Water Replacement Improvements, City Project No. W22-7 & WW22-03 Project (Dixi Street Project) was identified to be a priority project and eligible for ARPA funding.

Staff requested a design proposal from two firms on the on-call list. On March 3, 2021, the City Council 30 approved a proposal for professional services with Yamabe & Horn Engineering, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $38,000 for Civil Engineering Design for the Dixi Street Project.

Staff then prepared and formally advertised through Planet Bids a formal request for bids for the Dixi Street Sewer and Water Replacement Project. The bid was posted on April 1, 2022, and had a bid close date of April 27, 2022. The City received a total of five (5) bids, with APEC being the lowest responsive bidder.

On May 18, 2022, City Council approved a contract for construction services with APEC in an amount of $1,171,850 with a 10% contingency for the Dixi Street Project.

Review & Analysis
During the construction phase of this project, some modifications were made to the agreement to reflect the needs of the project in a total of seven (7) contract change orders (CCO):
$1,171,850 Total Amount of Contract Approved
+$45,779.98 CCO 1 – Additional potholing to an unforeseen utility conflict and associated costs +$168,200.00 CCO 2 – Waterline Revision (Moving Waterline Alignment) +$44,490.00 CCO 3 – Demo and replacement of Storm drain inlets and pipe at Dixi/Monterey +$122,515.00 CCO 5 – Installation of five ADA curb ramps along Dixi Street +$54,985.00 CCO 6 – HMA Leveling Course to prevent cracks and deformation on Dixi Street. +$39,753.07 CCO 7 – Remaining T&M Work for the Sewer, Water, and Miscellaneous Work. $1,647,573.05 Total Construction Cost
Contract Change Order 4 was not included in the total construction cost for the Dixi Street project as the work performed under CCO 4 was for the delivery and placement of the Asphalt Grindings at the Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). Therefore, funding of CCO 4 was not through ARPA but the Wastewater Operations Fund.

Public Works Staff has inspected and reported that the Dixi Street Sewer and Water Replacement Improvements are completed by the project documents and all work performed by APEC is now complete. Therefore, Staff is recommending that the City accept the project as complete and release retention.

Financial Considerations
This project was funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and under Resolution No. 5949 allocated an additional $150,000 in contingency to cover contract change orders. The remaining contingency balance of $92,301 shall cover the retention payment for this project.

Alternatives
Approve the resolution as presented; or
Reject the proposed resolution.

Planning/CEQA
This project is categorically exempt under Section 15302 – Replacement or Reconstruction Class 2(c) Replacement or reconstruction of existing utility systems and/or facilities involving negligible or no expansion of capacity. This project meets the negligible qualifying criteria provided under CEQA Guidelines Section 15302.

TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Mike Rodriquez, City Attorney
MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 6.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No.6110, “Amending the City’s Conflict of Interest Code.”
Executive Summary
The Political Reform Act requires every local government agency to review its Conflict of Interest Code biennially to determine if it is accurate or, alternatively, that the Code must be amended. The Code identifies the City positions/classifications subject to the State Conflict of Interest Code and lists the type of information that must be disclosed by all designated parties. Changes to the Code are usually only required when the City has had a change in positions or classifications. While changes to the Code have not been necessary for several cycles, a number of changes in designation require Code updating in 2024. Staff has prepared a revised Conflict of Interest Code as reflected in the attached Resolution for City Council consideration and adoption.

Background
The Political Reform Act requires every local government agency to review its Conflict of Interest Code biennially to determine if it is accurate or, alternatively, that the Code must be amended. Once the determination has been made, a notice must be submitted to the Code reviewing body no later than October 1 of even-numbered years. The City Council is the Code reviewing body for the City.

Attachment A to this Staff Report is a copy of the City Clerk’s 2024 Local Agency Biennial Notice which indicates that an amendment to the Conflict of Interest Code is required.

Review & Analysis
The City Council initially adopted a Conflict of Interest Code by way of Resolution No. 1222. On December 4, 1996, the City Council adopted an updated Conflict of Interest Code via Resolution No. 2551 and rescinded the previous Resolution No. 1222. Amendments to the Code were adopted by way of Resolution No. 3426 on March 3, 2004; December 3, 2008 via Resolution No. 4314; August 4, 2010 35 via Resolution No. 4551; August 1, 2012 via Resolution No. 4799; July 2, 2014 by Resolution No. 4991 and on September 5, 2018 by Resolution No. 5440. A determination was made in 2016, 2020 and 2022 that no Code amendment was required.

Since the last revision on September 5, 2018, there have been changes to the status of several positions in the City, thus necessitating amendments to the Code. The revised Code will delete the position of Building Official, which no longer exists, and add the position of Parks and Recreation Director.

The proposed Appendix A reflects the City positions/classifications subject to the Conflict of Interest Code. Appendix B lists the disclosure categories. To bring the City of Soledad into conformance, Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a revised Conflict of Interest Code as reflected in the attached Resolution with accompanying Appendices A and B.

Financial Considerations
None.

Alternatives
Adopt the proposed Resolution
Do not amend the Conflict of Interest Code at this time.

Modify the Resolution
Planning/CEQA
The City has determined that adoption of the revised Conflict of Interest Code is not considered a project for the purposes of CEQA since it has no potential for resulting in either a direct or indirect impact to the environment. (See CEQA Guidelines Section 15378.) Public Notice Requirements
None required.

FROM: Donald Wilcox, Public Works Director, Alex Ramos, Assistant Engineer MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 8.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad Consider and Adopt Resolution No. 6119, “Accepting a List of Projects Funded by SB 1: The Road Repair and Accountability Act for Fiscal Year 2024/2025”.

Executive Summary
Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) is a funding opportunity apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and safety projects. To be eligible to receive SB1 funding, the City needs to develop and submit a list of projects and a project expenditure report and satisfy reporting requirements for the California Transportation Commission each fiscal year before their respective deadlines. In addition, SB1 requires a resolution from the City Council adopted during a regular public council meeting attached to the submittal list of projects by the deadline of July 1st. Although the Council previously approved a resolution on June 5, 2024, Staff is bringing a new resolution for Council consideration and approval with modifications requested by the California Transportation Commission.

Background
Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, provides additional funding through a combination of taxes and fees to address basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on the State’s roadway network. To receive RMRA funding each year, cities and counties must submit a list of projects to the California Transportation Commission (CTC). The project list must be accompanied by evidence of inclusion in an adopted budget. This staff report is meant to provide the required project and budgetary information needed to satisfy the funding and reporting requirements.
38 Review & Analysis
Staff originally brought this item to the Council for approval on June 5, 2024, at a regular public council meeting. However, after submitting the adopted resolution and proposed project list to the California Transportation Commission, Staff was informed that the Resolution had to be modified to reflect the specific locations in which work is to be performed if the project has been identified to be in the construction phase.

The FY 24/25 Crack Seal Project is the only project currently in the proposed project submittal list to be in the construction phase and will be updated in the resolution to reflect the street locations. Due to the number of streets the FY 24/25 Crack Seal Project plans to address, the project location description shall refer to the Crack Seal Map attached as “Exhibit A”. The FY 24/25 Slurry Seal Project is still in the pre-construction phase and requires plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) before moving toward construction and is fine to remain as is.

All proposed projects must be included in a city or county budget that is adopted by the city council or board of supervisors at a regular public meeting. The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for FY 25- 28 shall have said project(s) programmed for the subsequent years once approved. The estimated revenue increases from SB 1 will be accounted for in Fund 212, “Gas Tax”, as the new RMRA funds will be distributed to the City in much the same way that the Gas Tax revenues currently are. Projects to be funded from Gas Tax revenues will also be shown in the CIP report. The following project(s) will be funded all or in part by the RMRA funding, which is estimated at $714,879 for fiscal year 24/25.

Fiscal Year 24/25 Street Maintenance Projects (Crack Seal & Slurry Seal) - $714,879 Financial Considerations
This is revenue that comes from the State to the City of Soledad to rehabilitate failed roads and add useful life span to those sections. The use of this funding for street maintenance will be reflected in the FY 24/25 budget.

Alternatives
Approve the resolution as presented; or
Reject the proposed resolution. This is not recommended because the City would be ineligible to receive additional revenue for street maintenance.

Planning/CEQA
The proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). Because the matter does not cause a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change on or in the environment, this matter is not a project. Any subsequent discretionary projects resulting from this action will be assessed for CEQA applicability.

Public Notice Requirements
None required.

Resolution No. 6109, Ordering the Levy and Collection of Assessments Within the Rancho San Vicente Parks and Open Spaces Maintenance Assessment District for Fiscal Year 2024/2025.

Executive Summary
The City of Soledad has five Assessment Districts formed to levy and collect assessments against the lots or parcels of land within such districts to pay for the costs and expenses of operating, maintaining, and servicing improvements and facilities located within public places within the districts’ boundaries.

All five Assessment Districts' proposed levies are generally following FY 23/24's patterns, and as such, the respective increases of the proposed assessments are due to the 3% annual adjustment for Rancho San Vicente-CHISPA and by CPI inflation adjustments for three of the other four districts.

Consideration of resolutions approving the annual levy and collection of assessments is before the Council this evening.

Background
In 2003, the City Council of the City of Soledad formed the Diamond Ridge Benefit Assessment District No. 1 (Diamond Ridge, Phase I); Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1 (Miravale I, Phase I); and the Rancho San Vicente Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District. In 2006 the Council formed the Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1, and the Annexation No. 1 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II); Benefit Assessment District No. 2 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II). In January 2022 the Council approved the Liberty Court Annexation to the Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II) and also to the Benefit Assessment District No. 2 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II). All of these Districts were formed to levy and collect assessments against the lots or parcels of land within such districts to pay for the costs and expenses of operating, maintaining, and servicing improvements and facilities located within public places within the boundaries of the Districts.

Each year the City is required to approve an updated Engineer’s Annual Levy Report for the District that describes the District and the proposed levy and collection of assessments upon eligible parcels of land within the District. This report is presented at a public hearing to give the public an opportunity to comment.

Review & Analysis
With the formation of the various districts, as approved by the property owners pursuant to a mailed ballot election conducted in accordance with Article XIII D of the California Constitution, the City Council in subsequent fiscal years thereafter has the ability to impose the initial maximum assessment rate that was established at the year of formation which can be adjusted on an annual basis by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) of the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward area. Notwithstanding the fact that the maximum assessment rate is adjusted on an annual basis, the maximum assessment is not always assessed on all or any of the properties within a given district, and in some cases, where a district has been formed prior to the time that all of the involved public improvements have been constructed, properties may be assessed with a minimal assessment simply to cover administrative costs.

The City Council must order, by Resolution, to levy and collect assessments against the assessable lots and parcels of land within each District for that portion of the fiscal year commencing July 1, 2024, and ending June 30, 2025 to pay applicable operating, maintenance and service costs and expenses of identified improvements.
45 On May 15, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution Nos. 6082 and 6083 setting the public hearing and preliminarily approving the Engineer’s Annual Levy Report for the Diamond Ridge Benefit Assessment District No. 1 (Diamond Ridge Phase 1) and Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1 (Miravale 1, Phase 1). The public hearing was set for June 19, 2024.

On May 15, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution No. 6086 setting the public hearing and preliminarily approving the Engineer’s Annual Levy Report for the Rancho San Vicente Parks and Open Spaces Maintenance Assessment District. The public hearing was set for June 19, 2024.

On May 15, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution Nos. 6084 and 6085 setting the public hearing and preliminarily approving the Engineer’s Annual Levy Report approved the Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1, Annexation No. 1 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II) and Benefit Assessment District No. 2 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II). The public hearing was set for June 19, 2024.

The attached resolutions, if approved, will provide final approval of the Engineer’s Annual Levy Report for each district, authorize the levy and collection of said assessments and order the maintenance, operating and/or servicing of the improvements identified in each Engineer’s Annual Levy Report. It is worth noting that the Engineer’s Annual Levy Reports establish both a “recommended” Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment as well as the “maximum” Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment for each parcel in each district.

Consideration and action on the five (5) resolutions should only be taken after public hearings on said matters have been completed. Once the resolutions are approved, Staff will forward the documents to the County so that the assessments can be paid through the property tax roll system.

The table below shows a summary of the maximum allowable assessments, recommended Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2024-2025 assessments and previous year’s assessments. Preliminary Annual Engineer’s Reports for each District are available for review in the City Clerk’s Office. On behalf of the City, DTA reviewed all the City’s maintenance and benefit assessment districts’ fund balances and has recommended the following assessments for each of the districts for Fiscal Year 2024/2025:

All five Assessment Districts' proposed levies are generally following FY 23/24's patterns; and, as such, the respective increases of the proposed assessments are due to the 3% annual adjustment for 46 Rancho San Vicente - CHISPA and by CPI inflation adjustments for three of the other four districts.

The total assessment intended to be collected for the Rancho San Vicente Parks and Open Spaces Maintenance Assessment District is $819.66 per lot. Funds collected for this assessment are used for park maintenance, street landscaping, parkway water charges, park water charges, park electrical charges, sound wall maintenance, street lighting electrical and replacement.

The total assessment intended to be collected for the Diamond Ridge Benefit Assessment District No. 1 (Diamond Ridge, Phase I) is $255.68 per lot. Funds collected for this assessment are to be used for routine maintenance and dredging of the percolation pond, street sweeping, storm drain repair and maintenance, engineering plans and specifications, inspection and overhead.

The total assessment intended to be collected for the Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Spaces Maintenance District No. 1 (Miravale I, Phase I) is $475.14 per lot. Funds collected for this assessment are to be used for maintenance of the parks, playgrounds, streets and landscaping, street landscape water charges, park water charges, park electrical charges, planter wall maintenance, sound wall replacement and painting, street lighting electrical and replacement.

The total assessment intended to be collected for the Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II) is $610.57 per lot, a reduction from last year. Funds collected for this assessment are to be used for maintenance of the parks, streets and landscaping, street landscape water charges, park water charges, park electrical charges, planter wall maintenance, sound wall replacement and painting, street lighting electrical and replacement. The assessment reduction is due to the addition of new parcels within the District, which results in total costs being spread over a greater number of parcels than in the preceding year.

The total assessment intended to be collected for the Benefit Assessment District No. 2 (Orchard Villas/Miravale II) is $281.16 per lot. Funds collected for this assessment are used for routine maintenance such as street sweeping, repairs, replacement, electric current, supervision, debris removal, pest abatement, engineering and inspection, and any other items of work necessary and incidental for the proper maintenance and operation.

DTA has prepared and filed a Final Engineer’s Report (“Report(s)”) for each District and recommends funding each District with the assessments shown in the table above. The Reports are available in the City Clerk’s office for review.

Financial Considerations
All costs incurred by the City in the preparation and administration of the involved assessment districts will be charged against each district and paid by affected property owners. The costs include all maintenance as well as costs to service the districts including City administration, required engineer’s reports, contingency reserves and the County fee. The total collected and anticipated to be expended in the 2024-2025 year per district is listed below:
$109,834.44 647 - Rancho San Vicente
$88,720.91 649 - Diamond Ridge BAD

Do not approve the attached resolutions; this alternative is not recommended as the City does not have funding to provide the services needed without these Assessments.

Planning/CEQA
The City has determined that ordering to levy and collect annual assessments is exempt from provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines, Sections 15061, subd. (b)(3) and 15273. The amendments adjust District fees that are used to meet District operating expenses and have no possibility of causing significant environmental effects.

IV COST ESTIMATE
Applicable law requires the Engineer’s Report to contain an estimate of the costs of the Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including estimates of (i) the total costs for Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including incidental expenses, (ii) the amount of any surplus in the improvement fund to be carried over from a previous Fiscal Year, (iii) the amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part, (iv) the amount, if any, of the annual installment for the Fiscal Year where the legislative body has ordered an assessment for the estimated cost of any improvements to be levied and collected in annual installments, and (v) the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District. Estimates of these amounts are provided below.

The following describes the costs that are funded through the District.

A Costs of Improvements
A.1 Projected Annual Maintenance Costs & Capital Improvement Costs Included in the City’s Public Works Department Budget Request are estimated costs for the annual maintenance, servicing and funding of all improvements within the District. District direct maintenance expenses are estimated at $25,702 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 as shown in Table 2a below. District’s direct capital improvement costs are estimated at $289,001 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 as shown in Table 2b below.

Table 2a: Projected Annual Direct Maintenance Costs
Item Description Cost Estimate
Percolation Pond $6,781
Street Sweeping $14,206
Storm Drain Repair/Maintenance $3,358
Engineering $1,357

A.2 Projected Annual Administration Costs
In addition to the costs listed above, there will be costs attributed to the administration of the District. As shown in Table 3, the District administration costs are estimated to be $40,928 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. These costs are summarized below.

Table 4: Projected Annual Administration Costs
Item Description Cost Estimate
City Administration $26,816
Contingency $2,583
District Administration $5,000
Printing and Advertising $1,323
County Collection $5,205
Total* $40,928
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding.

A.3 Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Finally, in addition to the costs listed above, certain levy adjustments will be made to account for any operating or capital reserve credits or required capital collections to the District’s reserve fund. As shown in Table 4, an Operating Reserve Credit of $53,050 and Capital Reserve Credit of $289,001 have been applied to offset the required Capital Reserve Collection of $75,141. Therefore, a net total of $266,910 Reserve Fund Credit has been applied to the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment. Table 5: Projected Annual Levy Adjustment Item Description Cost Estimate
Capital Reserve Collection $75,141
Operating Reserve Credit ($53,050)
Capital Reserve Credit ($289,001)
Total ($266,910)
B Annual Cost Indexing
B.1 City/District Administration, Printing, and Advertising With the passage of Proposition 218, any proposed increase in assessments must be approved by impacted property owners via a mail ballot and public hearing process, similar to these proceedings. A weighted simple majority of ballots received (weighted according to each parcel’s proportionate assessment obligation) must be affirmative for the City Council to confirm and levy the increased assessments. For small assessment districts or districts with relatively low dollar assessments, the cost of an Engineer’s Report, balloting, and the public hearing process can potentially 63 9

SECTION IV

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge BAD No. 1
www.FinanceDTA.com
exceed the total amount of the increase. The incidental costs of these proceedings may be added to the assessments, resulting in even higher assessments.

Therefore, indexing assessments annually to the published “San Francisco Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers” (“SF CPI”) allows for minor increases in normal maintenance and operating costs, without incurring the costs of ballot proceedings required by Proposition 218. Any other significant changes to the District (e.g., increases in service, modification of the boundary, etc.) would still require Proposition 218 proceedings and, ultimately, property owner approval.

Thus, on each July 1, commencing on July 1, 2003, the maximum authorized unit assessment rates established in these proceedings will be indexed (increased) annually by a factor equal to the published April SF CPI from the preceding Fiscal Year. The most recent data for the increase in the SF CPI is the increase between April 2023 and April 2024 and shows an increase equal to 3.77%. Therefore, on July 1, 2024, the maximum assessment will thus be increased by 3.77%.

Since the maximum assessment is likely sufficient to cover the cost estimates for improvements and other expenses for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, an amount equal to only the total projected costs will be assessed on the property within the District.

The assessment levy in future years may be any amount less than or equal to the maximum assessment in that year.

B.2 Collection Fees
The County Auditor/Controller also charges an additional 0.25% of the total amount assessed.

B.3 Reserve Collection/Transfer
The applicable law provides for a District Reserve Fund that provides for the collection of funds to cover District operations between July 1 (beginning of the Fiscal Year) and the date on which the County remits first installment of assessments collected from the property tax bills (typically January or February). Any negative amounts entries for this budget item represent transfers from the Reserve Fund to reduce the assessment in a given fiscal year. A fully funded Reserve enables the District to (i) cover operational expenses incurred in the six (6) months of the fiscal year, without any City funds from non-District accounts; and (ii) address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.

C Contributions from Other Sources
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred…” In accordance with that provision, it is determined that there will be no general benefit from the Improvements in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, as explained in Section VI of this Report.

V ASSESSMENT ROLL
The Assessment Engineer has prepared an Assessment Roll for the District as required by applicable law, based upon the assessment methodology described in this Engineer’s Report. The Assessment Roll includes the net total assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and shows the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment, assessment number, Assessor’s Parcel Number, and land use designation for each parcel.

The Assessment Roll, as provided in Appendix A, lists the Assessor’s Parcel Numbers within this Assessment District by assessment number. The assessment numbers appearing on the Assessment and the names and addresses of the property owners are as shown on the last equalized assessment roll for taxes or as known to the Assessor of Monterey County.

All parcel information has been provided to DTA by the City Public Works Department, the previous Assessment Engineer, and the County of Monterey. 66 12

SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge BAD No. 1
www.FinanceDTA.com

VI METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
A Background
Pursuant to the 1982 Act, the legislative body establishes and determines the “estimated benefit received” by each parcel from the Improvements.

In addition, Article XIIID of the California Constitution, added in November 1996 through the passage of Proposition 218 by voters of the State of California, requires, inter alia, that (i) only special benefits be assessable, (ii) no assessment may exceed the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel assessed, and (iii) publicly owned parcels shall not be exempt from assessment unless clear and convincing evidence demonstrates that such publicly owned parcels receive no special benefits from the improvements for which the assessment is levied.
“Special benefit” is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large. Importantly, the general enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit. As such, this Engineer’s Report has been designed to comply with these requirements, as well as to incorporate recent California court decisions such as: Silicon Valley Taxpayers Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008), Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), Golden Hills Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011), and Concerned Citizens v. West Point Fire Protection District (2011). Methodologically, it is necessary and essential to identify the special benefit that the improvements, facilities, and services will render to the properties within the District. It is also necessary that the properties receive a special and direct benefit as distinguished from benefit to the general public.

The Assessment Engineer is appointed for the purpose of analyzing the facts and determining the method and formula for apportionment of the assessment obligation to the benefited properties. For these proceedings, the City has retained the firm of DTA as the Assessment Engineer.

The Assessment Engineer makes his or her recommendation for the method of apportionment in this Engineer’s Report for consideration at the public hearing. However, the final authority and action rests with the City Council after hearing all testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council must make the final action in determining that the assessment has been made in direct proportion to the special benefit received.

In determining the net amount to be assessed upon parcels within the District, Section 22573 of the California Streets and Highways Code states that such amount “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.”
67 13

SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge BAD No. 1
www.FinanceDTA.com
Proposition 218 further states that “no assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel,” where “special benefit” means “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large.” This Section VI describes the methodology used to calculate the net amount to be assessed on each parcel within the District in proportion to the special benefit conferred on each such parcel.

B Benefits of Improvements
The benefits associated with the local landscaping improvements are shown in Table 6 below.

Table 7: Benefits from Landscaping Improvements
Landscaping Improvements
Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements. Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area. Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping. Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, and dust and debris control. Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties. Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities including abatement of graffiti. Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels within the District by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation, and attenuating noise. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods as identified in Table 7 below.

Table 8: Benefits from Street Lighting Improvements
Street Lighting Improvements
Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection. Increased nighttime safety on roads and highways. Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see. Improved ingress and egress to property. Reduced vandalism and other criminal acts and damage to improvements or property. Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss. Increased promotion of business during nighttime hours in the case of commercial properties. 68 14

C Categories of Benefit
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel,” where “Special Benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.” It is therefore necessary to establish definitions of General Benefit and Special Benefit as such terms relate to the benefit to be derived from the Improvements.

The Improvements to be maintained and operated in the District were within or in areas in close proximity to the proposed developed residential lots. As a result, the developed residential lots in the District will receive 100% of the special benefits of the operation and maintenance of the Improvements. These benefits include enhanced neighborhood health and safety, improved quality of life from drainage, flood control and street improvements, protection of improved property, enhanced comfort, and increased desirability of the immediate surroundings of the residential units within the District. Importantly, because of the location of the improvements within or close to the District itself, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole. Any such general benefit is so incidental and negligible that it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

D Allocation of Special Benefit to Parcels
In accordance with the provisions in the formation documents, the annual maintenance and operation budget is developed for improvements located in the entire Diamond Ridge Subdivision Project. As discussed previously, developed parcels in the District are the only parcels that derive special benefit from maintenance and operations and as such, must bear the cost of these activities. However, it is anticipated that as future subdivisions develop the assessments will be prorated to reflect the District’s proportionate share of the costs of a given operation and maintenance activity.

Importantly, Article XlllD 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. As a result, the following property will be considered exempt from the assessment: areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and right-of-way, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.

Factored development unit calculations for residential areas are as follows:

Low Density Single-Family Residential = 1.0 Unit
Future Medium Density Residential = 0.8 Unit

FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space MAD No. 1 June 19, 2024 www.FinanceDTA.com

IV COST ESTIMATE
Applicable law requires the Engineer’s Report to contain an estimate of the costs of the Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including estimates of (i) the total costs for Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including incidental expenses, (ii) the amount of any surplus in the improvement fund to be carried over from a previous Fiscal Year, (iii) the amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part, (iv) the amount, if any, of the annual installment for the Fiscal Year where the legislative body has ordered an assessment for the estimated cost of any improvements to be levied and collected in annual installments, and (v) the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District. Estimates of these amounts are provided below.

The following describes the costs that are funded through the District.

A Costs of Improvements
A.1 Projected Annual Maintenance Costs
Included in the City’s Public Works Department Budget Request are estimated costs for the annual maintenance and servicing of all improvements within the District.

District direct maintenance expenses are estimated at $31,329 for Fiscal Year 2024- 2025 as shown in Table 2 below.

A.2 Projected Annual Administration Costs
In addition to the costs listed above, there will be costs attributed to the administration of the District. As shown in Table 3, the District administration costs are estimated to be $38,532 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. These costs are summarized below.

Table 3: Projected Annual Administration Costs
Item Description Cost Estimate
City Administration $27,662
District Administration $5,000
Printing and Advertising $665
County Collection $5,205
Total* $38,532
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding.

A.3 Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Finally, in addition to the costs listed above, certain levy adjustments will be made to account for any operating reserve credits or required capital collections to the District’s reserve fund. As shown in Table 4, an Operating Reserve Collection of $31,497 and the required Capital Reserve Collection of $63,515, resulting in a total of $95,013 Reserve Fund Debit has been applied to the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment.

Table 4: Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Item Description Cost Estimate
Capital Reserve Collection $63,515
Operating Reserve Debit/Credit $31,497
Total* $95,013
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding. B Annual Cost Indexing B.1 City/District Administration, Printing, and Advertising With the passage of Proposition 218, any proposed increase in assessments must be approved by impacted property owners via a mail ballot and public hearing process, similar to these proceedings. A weighted simple majority of ballots received (weighted according to each parcel’s proportionate assessment obligation) must be affirmative for the City Council to confirm and levy the increased assessments. For small assessment districts or districts with relatively low dollar assessments, the cost of an Engineer’s Report, balloting, and the public hearing process can potentially exceed the total amount of the increase. The incidental costs of these proceedings 89 9

SECTION IV

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space MAD No. 1 June 19, 2024 www.FinanceDTA.com
may be added to the assessments, resulting in even higher assessments.

Therefore, indexing assessments annually to the published “San Francisco Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers” (“SF CPI”) allows for minor increases in normal maintenance and operating costs, without incurring the costs of ballot proceedings required by Proposition 218. Any other significant changes to the District (e.g., increases in service, modification of the boundary, etc.) would still require Proposition 218 proceedings and, ultimately, property owner approval.

Thus, on each July 1, commencing on July 1, 2003, the maximum authorized unit assessment rates established in these proceedings will be indexed (increased) annually by a factor equal to the published April SF CPI from the preceding Fiscal Year. The most recent data for the increase in the SF CPI is the increase between April 2023 and April 2024 and shows an increase equal to 3.77%. Therefore, on July 1, 2024, the maximum assessment will thus be increased by 3.77%.

Since the maximum assessment is likely sufficient to cover the cost estimates for improvements and other expenses for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, an amount equal to only the total projected costs will be assessed on the property within the District. The assessment levy in future years may be any amount less than or equal to the maximum assessment in that year.

B.2 Collection Fees
The County Auditor/Controller also charges an additional 0.25% of the total amount assessed.

B.3 Reserve Collection/Transfer
The applicable law provides for a District Reserve Fund that provides for the collection of funds to cover District operations between July 1 (beginning of the Fiscal Year) and the date on which the County remits first installment of assessments collected from the property tax bills (typically January or February). Any negative amounts entries for this budget item represent transfers from the Reserve Fund to reduce the assessment in a given fiscal year. A fully funded Reserve enables the District to (i) cover operational expenses incurred in the six (6) months of the fiscal year, without any City funds from non-District accounts; and (ii) address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.

C Contributions from Other Sources
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred…” In accordance with that provision, it is determined that there will be no general benefit from the Improvements in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, as explained in Section VI of this Report.

V ASSESSMENT ROLL
The Assessment Engineer has prepared an Assessment Roll for the District as required by applicable law, based upon the assessment methodology described in this Engineer’s Report. The Assessment Roll includes the net total assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and shows the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment, assessment number, Assessor’s Parcel Number, and land use designation for each parcel.

The Assessment Roll, as provided in Appendix A, lists the Assessor’s Parcel Numbers within this Assessment District by assessment number. The assessment numbers appearing on the Assessment and the names and addresses of the property owners are as shown on the last equalized assessment roll for taxes or as known to the Assessor of Monterey County.

All parcel information has been provided to DTA by the City Public Works Department, the previous Assessment Engineer, and the County of Monterey. 92 12

SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space MAD No. 1 June 19, 2024 www.FinanceDTA.com

VI METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
A Background
Pursuant to the 1982 Act, the legislative body establishes and determines the “estimated benefit received” by each parcel from the Improvements.

In addition, Article XIIID of the California Constitution, added in November 1996 through the passage of Proposition 218 by voters of the State of California, requires, inter alia, that (i) only special benefits be assessable, (ii) no assessment may exceed the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel assessed, and (iii) publicly owned parcels shall not be exempt from assessment unless clear and convincing evidence demonstrates that such publicly owned parcels receive no special benefits from the improvements for which the assessment is levied.
“Special benefit” is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large. Importantly, the general enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit. As such, this Engineer’s Report has been designed to comply with these requirements, as well as to incorporate recent California court decisions such as: Silicon Valley Taxpayers Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008), Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), Golden Hills Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011), and Concerned Citizens v. West Point Fire Protection District (2011). Methodologically, it is necessary and essential to identify the special benefit that the improvements, facilities, and services will render to the properties within the District. It is also necessary that the properties receive a special and direct benefit as distinguished from benefit to the general public.

The Assessment Engineer is appointed for the purpose of analyzing the facts and determining the method and formula for apportionment of the assessment obligation to the benefited properties. For these proceedings, the City has retained the firm of DTA as the Assessment Engineer.

The Assessment Engineer makes his or her recommendation for the method of apportionment in this Engineer’s Report for consideration at the public hearing. However, the final authority and action rests with the City Council after hearing all testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council must make the final action in determining that the assessment has been made in direct proportion to the special benefit received.

In determining the net amount to be assessed upon parcels within the District, Section 22573 of the California Streets and Highways Code states that such amount “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.”
93 13

SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space MAD No. 1 June 19, 2024 www.FinanceDTA.com
Proposition 218 further states that “no assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel,” where “special benefit” means “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large.” This Section VI describes the methodology used to calculate the net amount to be assessed on each parcel within the District in proportion to the special benefit conferred on each such parcel.

B Benefits of Improvements
The benefits associated with the local landscaping improvements are shown in the Table 6 below.

Table 6: Benefits from Landscaping Improvements
Landscaping Improvements
Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements. Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area. Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping. Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, and dust and debris control. Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties. Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities including abatement of graffiti. Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels within the District by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation, and attenuating noise. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods as identified in Table 7 below.

Table 7: Benefits from Street Lighting Improvements
Street Lighting Improvements
Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection. Increased nighttime safety on roads and highways. Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see. Improved ingress and egress to property. Reduced vandalism and other criminal acts and damage to improvements or property. Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss. Increased promotion of business during nighttime hours in the case of commercial properties. 94 14

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Diamond Ridge Parks and Open Space MAD No. 1 June 19, 2024 www.FinanceDTA.com
C Categories of Benefit
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel,” where “Special Benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.” It is therefore necessary to establish definitions of General Benefit and Special Benefit as such terms relate to the benefit to be derived from the Improvements.

The Improvements to be maintained and operated in the District were within or in areas in close proximity to the proposed developed residential lots. As a result, the developed residential lots in the District will receive 100% of the special benefits of the operation and maintenance of the Improvements. These benefits include enhanced neighborhood health and safety, improved quality of life from drainage, flood control and street improvements, protection of improved property, enhanced comfort, and increased desirability of the immediate surroundings of the residential units within the District. Importantly, because of the location of the improvements within or close to the District itself, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole. Any such general benefit is so incidental and negligible that it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

D Allocation of Special Benefit to Parcels
In accordance with the provisions in the formation documents, the annual maintenance and operation budget is developed for improvements located in the entire Diamond Ridge Subdivision Project. As discussed previously, developed parcels in the District are the only parcels that derive special benefit from maintenance and operations and as such, must bear the cost of these activities. However, it is anticipated that as future subdivisions develop the assessments will be prorated to reflect the District’s proportionate share of the costs of a given operation and maintenance activity.

Importantly, Article XlllD 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. As a result, the following property will be considered exempt from the assessment: areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and right-of-way, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.

Factored development unit calculations for residential areas are as follows:

Low Density Single-Family Residential = 1.0 Unit

The City Council of the City of Soledad, California (hereinafter referred to as the “City”) does resolve as follows:

WHEREAS, the City Council has by previous Resolutions initiated proceedings and declared its intention to levy assessments for the Parks and Open Space Maintenance Assessment District No. 1 as Annexation No. 1, Orchard Villas/Miravale II (hereafter referred to as the “District”) for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 2024 and ending June 30, 2025 pursuant to the provisions of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code, commencing with Section 22500 (hereafter referred to as the "Act") to pay the costs and expenses of operating, maintaining, and servicing improvements and facilities located within the boundaries of the District; and,
WHEREAS, DTA has prepared and filed with the City Clerk, and the City Clerk has presented to the Council, the Engineer’s Annual Levy Report (hereafter referred to as the “Report”) for the District that describes the District and the proposed levy and collection of assessments upon eligible parcels of land within the District, and the Council did by previous Resolution give preliminary approval of said Report; and,

FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com

III PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The plans, specifications, and studies of the Improvements for this District are voluminous and will not be bound in this Report, but by this reference are incorporated as if attached to this Report. The plans and specifications are on file with the City of Soledad and/or the County of Monterey, California.

A Description of the District
The District is generally located between Orchard Lane and Granada Street, south of Gabilan Drive, west of Bryant Canyon Road, and east of Orchard Lane. A District diagram incorporated herein under Section VII of this Report outlines the boundaries of the District.

This diagram incorporates all lots, parcels, and subdivisions of land within the District as the same existed at the time this Report was prepared, a complete listing of which is provided in Appendix A of this Report.

B District Improvements, Facilities, and Services
The following descriptions, provided in the formation documents of the District, identify the types of improvements that will be maintained by the District. Detailed maps and descriptions of these improvements are on file with the City and are available for inspection in the office of the City Engineer and have been incorporated into this Report by reference.

B.1 Landscape Improvements
Maintenance and operation includes maintenance, servicing (including repair, replacement, removal), and operation of landscape improvements, park maintenance, graffiti removal, water for irrigation and fountains, and associated appurtenances located within the public right-of-way and dedicated landscape easements.

These maintenance and operation activities are generally performed on parkways and block walls located throughout the Orchard Villas and Miravale II developments.

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com

IV COST ESTIMATE
Applicable law requires the Engineer’s Report to contain an estimate of the costs of the Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including estimates of (i) the total costs for Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including incidental expenses, (ii) the amount of any surplus in the improvement fund to be carried over from a previous Fiscal Year, (iii) the amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part, (iv) the amount, if any, of the annual installment for the Fiscal Year where the legislative body has ordered an assessment for the estimated cost of any improvements to be levied and collected in annual installments, and (v) the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District. Estimates of these amounts are provided below.

The following describes the costs that are funded through the District.

A Costs of Improvements
A.1 Projected Annual Maintenance Costs
Included in the City’s Public Works Department Budget Request are estimated costs for the annual maintenance and servicing of all improvements within the District.

District direct maintenance expenses are estimated at $345,190 for Fiscal Year 2024- 2025 as shown in Table 2 below.

Table 2: Projected Annual Direct Maintenance Costs
Item Description Cost Estimate
Landscape Maintenance (Easements) $150,071
Park Maintenance $101,100
Street Lights $72,491
Graffiti $21,528
Reserve Collection/(Transfer) $0
Total* $345,190
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding.

A.2 Projected Annual Administration Costs
In addition to the costs listed above, there will be costs attributed to the administration of the District. As shown in Table 3, the District administration costs are estimated to be $38,800 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. These costs are summarized below.

Table 3: Projected Annual Administration Costs
Item Description Cost Estimate
City Administration $29,198
District Administration $5,282
Printing and Advertising $647
County Collection $3,673
Total* $38,800
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding.

A.3 Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Finally, in addition to the costs listed above, certain levy adjustments will be made to account for any operating reserve credits or required capital collections to the District’s reserve fund. As shown in Table 4, an Operating Reserve Credit of $45,000 has been applied to offset the required Capital Reserve Collection. Therefore, a net total of $45,000 Reserve Fund Credit has been applied to the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment.

Table 4: Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Item Description Cost Estimate
Capital Reserve Collection $0
Operating Reserve Credit ($45,000)
Total ($45,000)
B Annual Cost Indexing
B.1 City/District Administration, Printing, and Advertising With the passage of Proposition 218, any proposed increase in assessments must be approved by impacted property owners via a mail ballot and public hearing process, similar to these proceedings. A weighted simple majority of ballots received (weighted according to each parcel’s proportionate assessment obligation) must be affirmative for the City Council to confirm and levy the increased assessments. For small assessment districts or districts with relatively low dollar assessments, the cost of an Engineer’s Report, balloting, and the public hearing process can potentially exceed the total amount of the increase. The incidental costs of these proceedings may be added to the assessments, resulting in even higher assessments.

Therefore, indexing assessments annually to the published “San Francisco Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers” (“SF CPI”) allows for minor increases in normal maintenance and operating costs, without incurring the costs of ballot proceedings required by Proposition 218. Any other significant changes to the District (e.g., increases in service, modification of the boundary, etc.) would still require Proposition 218 proceedings and, ultimately, property owner approval. 115
9 SECTION IV

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
Thus, on each July 1, commencing on July 1, 2007, the maximum authorized unit assessment rates established in these proceedings will be indexed (increased) annually by a factor equal to the published SF CPI from the preceding Fiscal Year.

The most recent data for the increase in the SF CPI is the increase between February 2023 and February 2024 and shows an increase equal to 2.37%. Therefore, on July 1, 2024, the maximum assessment will thus be increased by 2.37%.

Since the maximum assessment is likely sufficient to cover the cost estimates for improvements and other expenses for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, an amount equal to only the total projected costs will be assessed on the property within the District.

The assessment levy in future years may be any amount less than or equal to the maximum assessment in that year.

B.2 Collection Fees
The County Auditor/Controller also charges an additional 0.25% of the total amount assessed.

B.3 Reserve Collection/Transfer
The applicable law provides for a District Reserve Fund that provides for the collection of funds to cover District operations between July 1 (beginning of the Fiscal Year) and the date on which the County remits first installment of assessments collected from the property tax bills (typically January or February). Any negative amounts entries for this budget item represent transfers from the Reserve Fund to reduce the assessment in a given fiscal year. A fully funded Reserve enables the District to (i) cover operational expenses incurred in the six (6) months of the fiscal year, without any City funds from non-District accounts; and (ii) address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.

C Contributions from Other Sources
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred…” In accordance with that provision, it is determined that there will be no general benefit from the Improvements in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, as explained in Section VI of this Report.

D Annual Installments
The entire amount of the net assessment, as shown in Table 5 below, will be assessed in Fiscal Year 2024-2025. E Net Assessment
Pursuant to the foregoing, Table 5 shows the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District in Fiscal Year 2024-2025.

V ASSESSMENT ROLL
The Assessment Engineer has prepared an Assessment Roll for the District as required by applicable law, based upon the assessment methodology described in this Engineer’s Report. The Assessment Roll includes the net total assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and shows the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment, assessment number, Assessor’s Parcel Number, and land use designation for each parcel.

The Assessment Roll, as provided in Appendix A, lists the Assessor’s Parcel Numbers within this Assessment District by assessment number. The assessment numbers appearing on the Assessment and the names and addresses of the property owners are as shown on the last equalized assessment roll for taxes or as known to the Assessor of Monterey County.

All parcel information has been provided to DTA by the City Public Works Department, the previous Assessment Engineer, and the County of Monterey. 118
12 SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com

VI METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
A Background
Pursuant to the 1972 Act, the legislative body establishes and determines the “estimated benefit received” by each parcel from the Improvements.

In addition, Article XIIID of the California Constitution, added in November 1996 through the passage of Proposition 218 by voters of the State of California, requires, inter alia, that (i) only special benefits be assessable, (ii) no assessment may exceed the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel assessed, and (iii) publicly owned parcels shall not be exempt from assessment unless clear and convincing evidence demonstrates that such publicly owned parcels receive no special benefits from the improvements for which the assessment is levied.
“Special benefit” is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large. Importantly, the general enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit. As such, this Engineer’s Report has been designed to comply with these requirements, as well as to incorporate recent California court decisions such as: Silicon Valley Taxpayers Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008), Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), Golden Hills Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011), and Concerned Citizens v. West Point Fire Protection District (2011). Methodologically, it is necessary and essential to identify the special benefit that the improvements, facilities, and services will render to the properties within the District. It is also necessary that the properties receive a special and direct benefit as distinguished from benefit to the general public.

The Assessment Engineer is appointed for the purpose of analyzing the facts and determining the method and formula for apportionment of the assessment obligation to the benefited properties. For these proceedings, the City has retained the firm of DTA as the Assessment Engineer.

The Assessment Engineer makes his or her recommendation for the method of apportionment in this Engineer’s Report for consideration at the public hearing. However, the final authority and action rests with the City Council after hearing all testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council must make the final action in determining that the assessment has been made in direct proportion to the special benefit received.

In determining the net amount to be assessed upon parcels within the District, Section 22573 of the California Streets and Highways Code states that such amount “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.”
119
13 SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
Proposition 218 further states that “no assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel,” where “special benefit” means “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large.” This Section VI describes the methodology used to calculate the net amount to be assessed on each parcel within the District in proportion to the special benefit conferred on each such parcel.

B Benefits of Improvements
The special benefits associated with the local landscaping improvements are shown in the Table 6 below.

Table 6: Benefits from Landscaping Improvements
Landscaping Improvements
Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements. Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area. Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping. Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, and dust and debris control. Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties. Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities including abatement of graffiti. Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels within the District by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation, and attenuating noise. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods as identified in Table 7 below.

Table 7: Benefits from Street Lighting Improvements
Street Lighting Improvements
Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection. Increased nighttime safety on roads and highways. Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see. Improved ingress and egress to property. Reduced vandalism and other criminal acts and damage to improvements or property. Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss. Increased promotion of business during nighttime hours in the case of commercial properties. 120

City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
C Categories of Benefit
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel,” where “Special Benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.” It is therefore necessary to establish definitions of General Benefit and Special Benefit as such terms relate to the benefit to be derived from the Improvements.

The following special benefit allocation was determined at the time the District was formed.

C.1 Landscaping
Proper maintenance of landscaping and appurtenant facilities specially benefit parcels within the District by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation, attenuating noise from adjacent streets, and controlling dust for those properties in close proximity to the landscaping, thereby enhancing the environmental quality of the parcels and making them more desirable; Spraying and treating of landscaping for disease reduces the likelihood of insect infestation and other diseases spreading to landscaping located throughout the properties within the District; and
Proper maintenance of the landscaping, ornamental structures, and appurtenant facilities (i) reduces property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through the abatement of graffiti and the screening of properties within the Annexation from arterial streets; and (ii) improves the attractiveness of properties within the District and provides a positive visual experience.

C.2 Street Lighting
The special benefit from the maintenance, operation, and servicing of street lighting within the District only accrues to parcels within the District located in areas where such lighting is provided. Therefore, parcels within the District, regardless of location, are considered to benefit from such improvements installed within the District.

C.3 Parks
The special benefit from the maintenance of park improvements is determined based on the potential use by the property owners within the District. Based on City standards, it has been determined that each parcel within the District will benefit from one-tenth (1/10) of each acre of developed parkland within the City. Using this projection, the total number of acres, and future population, only approximately 80% of the proposed parks maintenance within the Annexations will be assessed towards the Annexation parcels.

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
As a result, properties in the District will receive 100% of the special benefits of the operation and maintenance of the Improvements. Importantly, because of the location of the Improvements within or close to the District itself, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole. Any such general benefit is so incidental and negligible that it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

D Allocation of Special Benefit to Parcels
Each fiscal year, the Maximum Assessment Rate per EDU plus the cost-of-living adjustment (CPI) will be determined, and be brought before the City Council for approval prior to the start of the fiscal year. Additionally, improvements within the District will be reviewed to determine the extent of the improvements accepted for maintenance by the City. If it is determined that a portion of the improvements has either not been installed, or is installed but not accepted by the City for maintenance, a credit will be applied to Maximum Assessment rate per EDU. The credit will equal the portion of the annual maintenance costs associated with any improvements that have not been accepted for maintenance, and will be reflected in the final assessments placed on the County tax rolls for the fiscal year. This process will continue until such time that all improvements are complete and fully accepted by the City for maintenance.

As discussed previously, parcels in the District are the only parcels that derive special benefit from maintenance and operations and as such, must bear the cost of these activities. In accordance with the formation documents for the District, for each fiscal year the development status of parcels within the District will be reviewed to determine whether parcels are developed or vacant as described below. Each parcel within the District will then be assigned to one of the following four (4) categories based on that parcel’s development status:

D.1 Developed Accepted
This category includes parcels that have been developed and for which the City has accepted maintenance responsibilities. These parcels will be charged for their proportionate share of Total Direct Maintenance and Administration Expenses, based on each parcel’s share of the Maximum Assessment.

D.2 Developed Not Accepted
This category includes parcels that have been or are in the process of being developed and for which the City is not expecting to accept maintenance responsibilities in the upcoming fiscal year. These parcels will be charged for their proportionate share of the Administration Expenses and Storm Drain Maintenance Expenses, based on each parcel’s share of the Maximum Assessment. 122

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II MAD No. 1, Annexation No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
D.3 No Development
This category includes parcels that have not been developed and the City is not expecting to accept maintenance responsibilities for the upcoming fiscal year. These parcels will be charged for their proportionate share of the Total Administration Expenses based on each parcel’s share of the Maximum Assessment.

D.4 Pending Annexation
This category includes parcels that are within the boundaries of the District but have not been annexed into the City. These parcels will not be charged for any expenses.

Importantly, Article XlllD 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. As a result, the following property will be considered exempt from the assessment: areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and right-of-way, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial, and institutional activities.

Each parcel in the District is assigned a weighting factor known as an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (“EDU”). The following shows the EDU factors for each property type in the District:

Developed, Single-Family Residential = 1.0 EDU per Parcel Developed, Multi-Family Residential = 1.0 EDU per Unit
Vacant Land, Future Residential = 0.3 EDU per Acre
E Amount of Assessment
Pursuant to the foregoing, Table 8 below shows the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District in Fiscal Year 2024-2025. Table 8: Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Assessment Rates in the District Assessment Per EDU

FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com

IV COST ESTIMATE
Applicable law requires the Engineer’s Report to contain an estimate of the costs of the Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including estimates of (i) the total costs for Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including incidental expenses, (ii) the amount of any surplus in the improvement fund to be carried over from a previous Fiscal Year, (iii) the amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part, (iv) the amount, if any, of the annual installment for the Fiscal Year where the legislative body has ordered an assessment for the estimated cost of any improvements to be levied and collected in annual installments, and (v) the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District. Estimates of these amounts are provided below.

The following describes the costs that are funded through the District.

A Costs of Improvements
A.1 Projected Annual Maintenance Costs & Capital Improvement Costs Included in the City’s Public Works Department Budget Request are estimated costs for the annual maintenance, servicing, and funding of all improvements within the District. District direct maintenance expenses are estimated at $26,040 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 as shown in Table 2a below. District’s direct capital improvement costs are estimated at $243,369 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 as shown in Table 2b below.

Table 2a: Projected Annual Direct Maintenance Costs

Detention Basin Maintenance $3,761
Storm Drain Maintenance $4,298
Bryant Canyon Channel $5,576

FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com
A.2 Projected Annual Administration Costs
In addition to the costs listed above, there will be costs attributed to the administration of the District. As shown in Table 3, the District administration costs are estimated to be $37,823 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. These costs are summarized below.

Table 4: Projected Annual Administration Costs
Item Description Cost Estimate
City Administration $28,237
District Administration $5,282
Printing and Advertising $643
County Collection $3,662
Total* $37,823
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding.

A.3 Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Finally, in addition to the costs listed above, certain levy adjustments will be made to account for any operating reserve credits or required capital collection to the District’s reserve fund. As shown in Table 4, an Operating Reserve Credit of $31,245 and Capital Reserve Credit of $243,369 have been applied to offset the required Capital Reserve Collection of $123,481. Therefore, a net total of $151,133 Reserve Fund Credit has been applied to the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment.

Table 5: Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Item Description Cost Estimate
Capital Reserve Collection $123,481
Operating Reserve Credit ($31,245)
Capital Reserve Credit ($243,369)
Total ($151,133) *Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding. B Annual Cost Indexing B.1 City/District Administration, Printing, and Advertising With the passage of Proposition 218, any proposed increase in assessments must be approved by impacted property owners via a mail ballot and public hearing process, similar to these proceedings. A weighted simple majority of ballots received (weighted according to each parcel’s proportionate assessment obligation) must be affirmative for the City Council to confirm and levy the increased assessments. For small assessment districts or districts with relatively low dollar assessments, the cost of an Engineer’s Report, balloting, and the public hearing process can potentially 142
9 SECTION IV

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com
exceed the total amount of the increase. The incidental costs of these proceedings may be added to the assessments, resulting in even higher assessments. 143
10 SECTION IV

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com
Therefore, indexing assessments annually to the published “San Francisco Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers” (“SF CPI”) allows for minor increases in normal maintenance and operating costs, without incurring the costs of ballot proceedings required by Proposition 218. Any other significant changes to the District (e.g., increases in service, modification of the boundary, etc.) would still require Proposition 218 proceedings and, ultimately, property owner approval.

Thus, on each July 1, commencing on July 1, 2007, the maximum authorized unit assessment rates established in these proceedings will be indexed (increased) annually by a factor equal to the published SF CPI from the preceding Fiscal Year.

The most recent data for the increase in the SF CPI is the increase between February 2023 and February 2024 and shows an increase equal to 2.37%. Therefore, on July 1, 2024, the maximum assessment will thus be increased by 2.37%. Since the maximum assessment is likely sufficient to cover the cost estimates for improvements and other expenses for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, an amount equal to only the total projected costs will be assessed on the property within the District.

The assessment levy in future years may be any amount less than or equal to the maximum assessment in that year.

B.2 Collection Fees
The County Auditor/Controller also charges an additional 0.25% of the total amount assessed.

B.3 Reserve Collection/Transfer
The applicable law provides for a District Reserve Fund that provides for the collection of funds to cover District operations between July 1 (beginning of the Fiscal Year) and the date on which the County remits first installment of assessments collected from the property tax bills (typically January or February). Any negative amounts entries for this budget item represent transfers from the Reserve Fund to reduce the assessment in a given fiscal year. A fully funded Reserve enables the District to (i) cover operational expenses incurred in the six (6) months of the fiscal year, without any City funds from non-District accounts; and (ii) address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.

C Contributions from Other Sources
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred…” In accordance with that provision, it is determined that there will be no general benefit from the Improvements in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, as explained in Section VI of this Report.

FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com

V ASSESSMENT ROLL
The Assessment Engineer has prepared an Assessment Roll for the District as required by applicable law, based upon the assessment methodology described in this Engineer’s Report. The Assessment Roll includes the net total assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and shows the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment, assessment number, Assessor’s Parcel Number, and land use designation for each parcel.

The Assessment Roll, as provided in Appendix A, lists the Assessor’s Parcel Numbers within this Assessment District by assessment number. The assessment numbers appearing on the Assessment and the names and addresses of the property owners are as shown on the last equalized assessment roll for taxes or as known to the Assessor of Monterey County.

All parcel information has been provided to DTA by the City Public Works Department, the previous Assessment Engineer, and the County of Monterey. 146

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com

VI METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
A Background
Pursuant to the 1982 Act, the legislative body establishes and determines the “estimated benefit received” by each parcel from the Improvements.

In addition, Article XIIID of the California Constitution, added in November 1996 through the passage of Proposition 218 by voters of the State of California, requires, inter alia, that (i) only special benefits be assessable, (ii) no assessment may exceed the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel assessed, and (iii) publicly owned parcels shall not be exempt from assessment unless clear and convincing evidence demonstrates that such publicly owned parcels receive no special benefits from the improvements for which the assessment is levied.
“Special benefit” is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large. Importantly, the general enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit. As such, this Engineer’s Report has been designed to comply with these requirements, as well as to incorporate recent California court decisions such as: Silicon Valley Taxpayers Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008), Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), Golden Hills Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011), and Concerned Citizens v. West Point Fire Protection District (2011). Methodologically, it is necessary and essential to identify the special benefit that the improvements, facilities, and services will render to the properties within the District. It is also necessary that the properties receive a special and direct benefit as distinguished from benefit to the general public.

The Assessment Engineer is appointed for the purpose of analyzing the facts and determining the method and formula for apportionment of the assessment obligation to the benefited properties. For these proceedings, the City has retained the firm of DTA as the Assessment Engineer.

The Assessment Engineer makes his or her recommendation for the method of apportionment in this Engineer’s Report for consideration at the public hearing. However, the final authority and action rests with the City Council after hearing all testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council must make the final action in determining that the assessment has been made in direct proportion to the special benefit received.

In determining the net amount to be assessed upon parcels within the District, Section 22573 of the California Streets and Highways Code states that such amount “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.”
147
14 SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com
Proposition 218 further states that “no assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel,” where “special benefit” means “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large.” This Section VI describes the methodology used to calculate the net amount to be assessed on each parcel within the District in proportion to the special benefit conferred on each such parcel.

B Benefits of Improvements
The benefits associated with District Improvements are shown in the Table 6 below.

Table 7: Benefits from Street/Storm Drain Improvements
Street/Storm Drain Improvements
Alleviation of excess water during periods of rain.

Safe and efficient movement of people and goods within motor vehicles.

Development of parcels in the District contingent on completion of Improvements.

C Categories of Benefit
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel,” where “Special Benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.” It is therefore necessary to establish definitions of General Benefit and Special Benefit as such terms relate to the benefit to be derived from the Improvements.

The Improvements to be maintained and operated in the District were within or in areas in close proximity to properties in the District. As a result, properties in the District will receive 100% of the special benefits of the operation and maintenance of the Improvements. These benefits include enhanced neighborhood health and safety, improved quality of life from drainage, flood control and street improvements, protection of improved property, enhanced comfort, and increased desirability of the immediate surroundings of the residential units within the District. Importantly, because of the location of the improvements within or close to the District itself, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole. Any such general benefit is so incidental and negligible (less than 1%) that it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

D Allocation of Special Benefit to Parcels
Each fiscal year, the Maximum Assessment Rate per EDU plus the cost-of-living adjustment (CPI) will be determined, and be brought before the City Council for approval prior to the start of the fiscal year. Additionally, improvements within the District will be reviewed to determine the extent of the improvements accepted for maintenance by the City. If it is determined that a portion of the improvements has either not been installed, or is installed but not accepted by the City for maintenance, a credit will be applied to Maximum Assessment rate per EDU. The credit will equal the portion of the annual maintenance costs 148
15 SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Orchard Villas/Miravale II BAD No. 2 www.FinanceDTA.com
associated with any improvements that have not been accepted for maintenance, and will be reflected in the final assessments placed on the County tax rolls for the fiscal year. This process will continue until such time that all improvements are complete and fully accepted by the City for maintenance.

As discussed previously, parcels in the District are the only parcels that derive special benefit from maintenance and operations and as such, must bear the cost of these activities. In accordance with the formation documents for the District, for each fiscal year the development status of parcels within the District will be reviewed to determine whether parcels are developed or vacant as described below. Each parcel within the District will then be assigned to one of the following four (4) categories based on that parcel’s development status:

D.1 Developed Accepted
This category includes parcels that have been developed and for which the City has accepted maintenance responsibilities. These parcels will be charged for their proportionate share of Total Direct Maintenance and Administration Expenses, based on each parcel’s share of the Maximum Assessment.

D.2 Developed Not Accepted
This category includes parcels that have been or are in the process of being developed and for which the City is not expecting to accept maintenance responsibilities in the upcoming fiscal year. These parcels will be charged for their proportionate share of the Administration Expenses and Storm Drain Maintenance Expenses, based on each parcel’s share of the Maximum Assessment.

D.3 No Development
This category includes parcels that have not been developed and the City is not expecting to accept maintenance responsibilities for the upcoming fiscal year. These parcels will be charged for their proportionate share of the Total Administration Expenses based on each parcel’s share of the Maximum Assessment.

D.4 Pending Annexation
This category includes parcels that are within the boundaries of the District but have not been annexed into the City. These parcels will not be charged for any expenses.

Importantly, Article XlllD 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. As a result, the following property will be considered exempt from the assessment: areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and right-of-way, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial, and institutional activities. 149

IV COST ESTIMATE
Applicable law requires the Engineer’s Report to contain an estimate of the costs of the Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including estimates of (i) the total costs for Improvements for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, including incidental expenses, (ii) the amount of any surplus in the improvement fund to be carried over from a previous Fiscal Year, (iii) the amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part, (iv) the amount, if any, of the annual installment for the Fiscal Year where the legislative body has ordered an assessment for the estimated cost of any improvements to be levied and collected in annual installments, and (v) the net amount to be assessed upon assessable lands within the District. Estimates of these amounts are provided below.

The following describes the costs that are funded through the District.

A Costs of Improvements
A.1 Projected Annual Maintenance Costs
Included in the City’s Public Works Department Budget Request are estimated costs for the annual maintenance and servicing of all improvements within the District.

District direct maintenance expenses are estimated at $85,369 for Fiscal Year 2024- 2025 as shown in Table 2 below.

A.2 Projected Annual Administration Costs
In addition to the costs listed above, there will be costs attributed to the administration of the District. As shown in Table 3, the District administration costs are estimated to be $36,683 for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. These costs are summarized below.

City Administration $29,878
District Administration $5,000
Printing and Advertising $500
County Collection $1,305
Total* $36,683
*Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding.

A.3 Projected Annual Levy Adjustment
Finally, in addition to the costs listed above, certain levy adjustments will be made to account for any operating reserve credits or required capital collection to the District’s reserve fund. As shown in Table 4, an Operating Reserve Credit of $33,505 has been applied to offset the required Capital Reserve Collection of $21,289. Therefore, a net total of $12,217 Reserve Fund Credit has been applied to the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 assessment. Table 4: Projected Annual Levy Adjustment Item Description Cost Estimate
Capital Reserve Collection $21,289
Operating Reserve Credit ($33,505)
Total* ($12,217) *Note: Figures may not sum due to rounding. B Annual Cost Indexing B.1 City/District Administration, Printing, and Advertising With the passage of Proposition 218, any proposed increase in assessments must be approved by impacted property owners via a mail ballot and public hearing process, similar to these proceedings. A weighted simple majority of ballots received (weighted according to each parcel’s proportionate assessment obligation) must be affirmative for the City Council to confirm and levy the increased assessments. For small assessment districts or districts with relatively low dollar assessments, the cost of an Engineer’s Report, balloting, and the public hearing process can potentially exceed the total amount of the increase. The incidental costs of these proceedings 169
9 SECTION IV

COST ESTIMATE
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Rancho San Vicente MAD No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
may be added to the assessments, resulting in even higher assessments.

Therefore, adjusting assessments annually by 3.00% allows for minor increases in normal maintenance and operating costs, without incurring the costs of ballot proceedings required by Proposition 218. Any other significant changes to the District (e.g., increases in service, modification of the boundary, etc.) would still require Proposition 218 proceedings and, ultimately, property owner approval.

Thus, on each July 1, commencing on July 1, 2004, the maximum authorized unit assessment rates established in these proceedings will be indexed (increased) annually by 3.00% from the preceding Fiscal Year.

Since the maximum assessment is likely sufficient to cover the cost estimates for improvements and other expenses for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, an amount equal to only the total projected costs will be assessed on the property within the District.

The assessment levy in future years may be any amount less than or equal to the maximum assessment in that year.

B.2 Collection Fees
The County Auditor/Controller also charges an additional 0.25% of the total amount assessed.

B.3 Reserve Collection/Transfer
The applicable law provides for a District Reserve Fund that provides for the collection of funds to cover District operations between July 1 (beginning of the Fiscal Year) and the date on which the County remits first installment of assessments collected from the property tax bills (typically January or February). Any negative amounts entries for this budget item represent transfers from the Reserve Fund to reduce the assessment in a given fiscal year. A fully funded Reserve enables the District to (i) cover operational expenses incurred in the six (6) months of the fiscal year, without any City funds from non-District accounts; and (ii) address any unforeseen or unusual expenditures that may occur during the year.

C Contributions from Other Sources
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred…” In accordance with that provision, it is determined that there will be no general benefit from the Improvements in Fiscal Year 2024-2025, as explained in Section VI of this Report.

D Annual Installments
The entire amount of the net assessment, as shown in Table 5 below, will be assessed in Fiscal Year 2024-2025.

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Rancho San Vicente MAD No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com

VI METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
A Background
Pursuant to the 1972 Act, the legislative body establishes and determines the “estimated benefit received” by each parcel from the Improvements.

In addition, Article XIIID of the California Constitution, added in November 1996 through the passage of Proposition 218 by voters of the State of California, requires, inter alia, that (i) only special benefits be assessable, (ii) no assessment may exceed the proportional special benefit conferred on the parcel assessed, and (iii) publicly owned parcels shall not be exempt from assessment unless clear and convincing evidence demonstrates that such publicly owned parcels receive no special benefits from the improvements for which the assessment is levied.
“Special benefit” is a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large. Importantly, the general enhancement of property value does not constitute special benefit. As such, this Engineer’s Report has been designed to comply with these requirements, as well as to incorporate recent California court decisions such as: Silicon Valley Taxpayers Association, Inc. v. Santa Clara County Open Space Authority (2008), Beutz v. County of Riverside (2010), Golden Hills Neighborhood Association v. City of San Diego (2011), and Concerned Citizens v. West Point Fire Protection District (2011). Methodologically, it is necessary and essential to identify the special benefit that the improvements, facilities, and services will render to the properties within the District. It is also necessary that the properties receive a special and direct benefit as distinguished from benefit to the general public.

The Assessment Engineer is appointed for the purpose of analyzing the facts and determining the method and formula for apportionment of the assessment obligation to the benefited properties. For these proceedings, the City has retained the firm of DTA as the Assessment Engineer.

The Assessment Engineer makes his or her recommendation for the method of apportionment in this Engineer’s Report for consideration at the public hearing. However, the final authority and action rests with the City Council after hearing all testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing. Upon conclusion of the public hearing, the City Council must make the final action in determining that the assessment has been made in direct proportion to the special benefit received.

In determining the net amount to be assessed upon parcels within the District, Section 22573 of the California Streets and Highways Code states that such amount “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.”
173
13 SECTION VI

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT
City of Soledad June 19, 2024
FINAL Engineer’s Report for Rancho San Vicente MAD No. 1 www.FinanceDTA.com
Proposition 218 further states that “no assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel,” where “special benefit” means “a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the District or to the public at large.” This Section VI describes the methodology used to calculate the net amount to be assessed on each parcel within the District in proportion to the special benefit conferred on each such parcel.

B Benefits of Improvements
The special benefits associated with the local landscaping improvements are shown in the Table 6 below.

Table 6: Benefits from Landscaping Improvements
Landscaping Improvements
Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements. Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area. Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping. Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, and dust and debris control. Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties. Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities including abatement of graffiti. Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels within the District by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation, and attenuating noise. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods as identified in Table 7 below.

Table 7: Benefits from Street Lighting Improvements
Street Lighting Improvements
Enhanced deterrence of crime and the aid to police protection. Increased nighttime safety on roads and highways. Improved ability of pedestrians and motorists to see. Improved ingress and egress to property. Reduced vandalism and other criminal acts and damage to improvements or property. Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss. Increased promotion of business during nighttime hours in the case of commercial properties. 174

C Categories of Benefit
Proposition 218 provides that “an agency shall separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel,” where “Special Benefit means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.” It is therefore necessary to establish definitions of General Benefit and Special Benefit as such terms relate to the benefit to be derived from the Improvements.

The following special benefit allocation was determined at the time the District was formed.

The Improvements to be maintained and operated in the District were within or in areas in close proximity to the proposed developed residential lots. As a result, the developed residential lots in the District will receive 100% of the special benefits of the operation and maintenance of the Improvements. These special benefits include enhanced neighborhood identity and quality of life generated when park landscaping and lighting are in place, improved, operable, safe, clean, and maintained. In short, maintenance and operation of the proposed improvements will provide beautification, shade, and increase the desirability of the immediate surroundings of the residential units within the District. Importantly, because of the location of the improvements within or close to the District itself, there is no general benefit to properties outside the District or the community as a whole. Any such general benefit is so incidental and negligible that it cannot be calculated for purposes of assessment.

D Allocation of Special Benefit to Parcels
As discussed previously, developed parcels in the District are the only parcels that derive special benefit from maintenance and operations and as such, must bear the cost of these activities. As a result, all costs associated with the maintenance and operation of District Improvements, including incidentals and appurtenances, shall be spread to all parcels within the District on a development unit basis.

Factored development unit calculations for residential areas are as follows:

Low Density Residential = 1.0 Unit/Residential Lot Single-Family Unit Apartment Unit = 0.8 Unit/Apartment
[0.8 Unit/Apartment x Apartment Units = Equivalent Single-Family Unit (“ESFU”)] Importantly, Article XlllD 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. As a result, the following property will be considered exempt from the assessment: areas of public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and right-of-way, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial, and institutional activities. 175

SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 769, Consider Waiver of Reading, Adoption and Read by Title Only Ordinance No. 769 “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Soledad Establishing a New Truck Route Pursuant to Chapter

10.62 Truck Routes of Title 10-Vehicles and Traffic of the Soledad Municipal Code"
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Leon Gomez, Interim City Engineer
MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 1.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council consider waiver of reading, adoption, and reading by title only Ordinance No. 769, Establishing a New Truck Route Pursuant to Chapter 10.62 Truck Routes of Title 10- Vehicles and Traffic of the Soledad Municipal Code.

Executive Summary
In August 2022, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 745 which provides the City Council with the ability to establish new truck routes in the City. At the same time Ordinance No. 745 was adopted, the Council also established a New Truck Route upon a recommendation from the former City Engineer.

This recommendation was based on concerns with trucks travelling through the roundabout at East Street/Metz Road/North Street, with the intent of directing trucks to Gabilan Drive and Orchard Lane, which were more recently constructed streets with wider roadway widths and better pavement sections.

However, since that time, City Staff, truck drivers, and the community have expressed a number of concerns regarding the New Truck Route. As a result, Council requested an evaluation of the New Truck Route vs. the Old Truck Route which led to a determination that the Old Truck Route is safer, shorter in length, and has less interface with schools than the New Truck Route. As such, Staff is now recommending that the City reestablish the Old Truck Route as the official truck route in the City.

Background
Section 35701 of the California Vehicle Code allows local authorities, by ordinance, to designate street segments on which commercial trucks must travel to reduce the impact of truck traffic in residential neighborhoods and other sensitive areas and minimizing damage to streets and related improvements.

In order to enforce the designated truck routes, the City Council must adopt an ordinance specifying which
183
street segments commercial trucks are required to utilize, and signs must be installed to designate truck routes.

In 2022, after reviewing the City’s Old Truck Route, and considering new housing developments and traffic flow impediments and challenges, the City Engineer and staff concluded that a New Truck Route, based in part on recent Orchard Lane vehicle counts, would better suit the City’s truck routing needs. The need for a new truck route was also based in part on the assumption that the City’s new roundabout at the intersection of East Street/Metz Road/North Street was not designed for large tractortrailers to safely traverse. Attachment A hereto shows the City’s current truck route. After soliciting and receiving limited public input on the matter, the Council adopted Ordinance No. 745 on August 17, 2022, which served the dual purpose of: 1) providing the City Council with authority to establish new truck routes by ordinance, and 2) approving a New Truck Route. Ordinance No. 745 also provided signage requirements for truck routes and exceptions to use of established truck routes. In adopting the New Truck Route, the Council extinguished the Old Truck Route. See Attachment B - Old Truck Route.

Based on the considerations set forth below, the City Engineer and Staff are now recommending that the Old Truck Route (shown on Attachment B), be established by ordinance as the new official truck route in the City.

Review & Analysis
In adopting the new truck route in 2022, the Council requested Staff to monitor the new route and periodically report on its use. Public works staff also engaged the City’s on-call Traffic Engineer, TL Engineering, to re-evaluate the New and Old Truck Routes. TL Engineering performed a thorough review of both the New and Old Truck Routes considering six (6) criteria and determined the following:

Total length and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT): the Old Truck Route is shorter and represents fewer Vehicle Miles Traveled for users, thus reducing the impact of truck traffic on City streets.

Collision Data: there were fewer collisions along the Old Truck Route, indicating that it is a safer route.

Presence of schools: there are fewer schools along the Old Truck Route.

Presence of safety measures: there are more existing safety measures along the Old Truck Route.

Turning movements: minor improvements at the East Street/Metz Road/North Street roundabout can be made to better facilitate truck turning movements.

Truck route signage: the Old Truck Route will require less signage.

Based on the foregoing, and after public outreach and input from local schools, truck companies and the Police and Public Works Departments, the City’s Contract Interim City Engineer and City Staff are recommending that the City reestablish the Old Truck Route as the new official truck route in the City.

Ordinance No. 769 will simply replace the current Truck Route with the Old Truck Route and direct the City Engineer to cause the new designated route to be placed on the City’s “List of Truck Routes.

On May 15, 2024, the City Council received public comment, waived reading, introduced and read by title Ordinance No. 769. A noticed public hearing was thereafter scheduled for the June 19, 2024, Council meeting for consideration of adoption of Ordinance No.769.

Financial Considerations
None, other than signage requirements.

Planning/CEQA
The adoption of this ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, based on 14 California Code of Regulations Section 15061(b)(3), since it can be seen with certainty that the establishment of a truck route on existing streets within the City, part of a circulation system that has been previously analyzed and approved by City action and is currently in use for vehicular transportation, creates no possibility of a significant effect on the environment.

Public Notice Requirements

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 1.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council consider and adopt Resolution No.6115, Approving and Accepting the Soledad Police Department’s AB 481 Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Annual Military Equipment Report Pursuant to Government Code Section 7071(d) and Renewing City of Soledad Ordinance No. 743 “Approving Soledad Police Department Policy Manual Policy 706-Military Equipment.” Executive Summary
Pursuant to the requirements of AB 481, the City Council previously adopted Ordinance No. 743 approving Soledad Police Department Policy Manual Policy 706. Policy 706 establishes an inventory of “military equipment” possessed and/or acquired by the Soledad Police Department, explains why such equipment may be used by the Department, why such use is deemed necessary, and the costs associated with maintaining and storing such equipment. AB 481 is seen as a transparency law, informing both the Council and the community of the possession and potential use of such equipment.

AB 481 also establishes the requirement that the ordinance adopting a military equipment use policy must be reviewed and renewed on an annual basis. To facilitate this review, the Police Department is required to prepare an Annual Report concerning the use of the Department’s military equipment.

The Police Department’s AB 481 Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Annual Military Equipment Report, which was submitted to the Council on May 15, 2024, and Ordinance No. 743, are before the Council this evening for consideration of acceptance and renewal respectively Background
192
Effective January 1, 2022, Assembly Bill 481 (codified in Government Code Section 7070 et seq.) requires legislative bodies to adopt ordinances approving military equipment policies before law enforcement agencies can continue to engage in specified activities related to the use of what the state legislature has defined as “military equipment” in Government Code Section 7070. The Soledad Police Department Military Equipment Policy was approved by the City Council by Ordinance No. 743 on June 15, 2022.

Government Code Section 7071(e)(1) states that a governing body shall review any ordinance that it has adopted pursuant to this section approving the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment at least annually and, subject to paragraph (e)(2), to vote on whether to renew the ordinance at a regular meeting.

Paragraph (e)(2) of Government Code Section 7071 states that the governing body shall determine, based on an annual report, whether each type of military equipment identified in that report has complied with the standards for approval set forth in subdivision (d) of Section 7071, which reads as follows:

A. The military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

B. The proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.

C. If purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost-effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

D. Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance.

If the governing body determines that a type of military equipment identified in its annual military equipment report has not complied with the standards for approval set forth above, the governing body shall either disapprove a renewal of the authorization for that type of military equipment or require modifications to the military equipment use policy in a manner that will resolve the lack of compliance.

In order to facilitate the orderly annual ordinance review referenced above, Government Code Section 7072 requires that any law enforcement agency that receives approval for a military equipment use policy pursuant to Section 7071 shall submit to the government body an annual military equipment report for each type of military equipment approved by the governing body within one year of approval, and annually thereafter for as long as the military equipment is available for use. The law enforcement agency shall also make each annual military equipment report required by this section publicly available on its internet website for as long as the military equipment is available for use. The annual military equipment report shall, at a minimum, include the following information for the immediately preceding year for each type of military equipment:

1. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use.

2. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment.

3. The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response.

4. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military equipment report.

5. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment. 193

6. If the law enforcement agency intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment.

Review & Analysis
The City Council considered and adopted Ordinance No. 743 “Approving Soledad Police Department Policy Manual Policy 706- Military Equipment” on June 15, 2022. During the June 15 meeting, and the prior meeting at which Ordinance No. 743 was introduced, the Council took comment from the public and discussed the ordinance and involved policy.

On May 15, 2024, the Council received the Police Department’s Annual Report on military equipment.

The Report was thereafter posted on the City’s website on May 17, 2024. Staff also publicized the date and location of the required “Community Engagement Meeting” concerning the Report, set as a part of the City Council’s regular meeting agenda for June 19, 2024, through social media, postings, and as a part of the City Council’s posting of its meeting agenda. Policy 706 has been continuously posted on the City website since adoption.

The Annual Report is meant to provide yearly information about each type of military equipment that was approved by Council. In Soledad, the only military equipment possessed by the Police Department is thirteen (13) M16A2 rifles and ammunition. The Report contains a summary of how equipment was used, any complaints or concerns received about the equipment, and any associated costs related to the equipment’s use. For this reporting period, no new military equipment was purchased, the equipment was only utilized for training purposes, and all costs were contained within budget appropriations. The Report does not seek approval of future acquisitions.

The Council should hold a community meeting to receive comment upon and to discuss the Annual Report. Thereafter, State law requires that the City review and consider renewal of its ordinance and military equipment policy. Since there have been no changes in the types or use of military equipment held by the Police Department in the past year, all of the findings made by the Council in support of the adoption of Policy 706 in 2022 should remain unchanged. As such, staff believes that both the Annual Report and Ordinance and Policy 706 can be renewed for another year by way of resolution finding that the Annual Report has been prepared in accordance with legal requirements and that there have been no changes to the policy and no immediate plans to acquire any additional military equipment. The adoption of a new ordinance is not needed at this time.

Financial Considerations
There will not be any new, unplanned direct fiscal impacts in continuing the ownership and minimal use of equipment already in the Police Department’s inventory or continuing to collaborate with other law enforcement agencies utilizing miliary equipment, including in mutual aid circumstances.

Maintenance costs of existing equipment, if any, is within the Police Department’s budget.

Alternatives
Adopt Resolution No. 6115, "Approving and Accepting the Soledad Police Department’s AB 481 Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Annual Military Equipment Use Report Pursuant to Government Code Section 7071(d) and Renewing City of Soledad Ordinance No. 743 “Approving Soledad Police Department Policy Manual Policy 706-Military Equipment.” 194
Resolution No. 6115
Exhibit A - Soledad Police Department Annual Military Equipment Report Exhibit B - Ordinance No. 743
Council could make changes to the Military Equipment Policy and/or Ordinance No. 743 if the Council determines that there has been non-compliance with standards set forth in subdivision (d) of Section 7071 of the Government Code. Council can also renew or disapprove renewal of the authorization for that type of military equipment or require modifications to the military equipment policy in a manner that will address and resolve lack of compliance.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6116, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Soledad Approving Planned Unit Development Permit No. 1 (PUD 2018- 02) Miravale Parcel E Amendment No. 1
TO: Honorable Mayor Velazquez and City Council
FROM: Kao Nou Yang. Community & Economic Development Director and Ariana Mora, Associate Planner
MEETING DATE: June 19, 2024

CITY OF SOLEDAD

STAFF REPORT
THROUGH: Megan Hunter, City Manager
AGENDA ITEM NO. 1.

Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Soledad consider and approve Resolution No. 6116, "Approving Planned Unit Development Permit No. 2018-02 (PUD 2018-02) Miravale Parcel E Amendment No. 1."
Executive Summary
In 2019, the City Council approved a Planned Unit Development for Miravale Santa Clara Subdivision (Parcel E) for 132 housing units. These include 28 multi-family rental units and 104 single-family ownership units. Parcel E was required to provide a total of 52 affordable housing units, consisting of 14 low-income and 14 very-low-income deed-restricted rental units and 24 moderate-income ownership units. Recently, the project developer partnered with Eden Housing, a non-profit agency, to help develop and manage the inclusionary housing requirement. The applicant has proposed amendments to PUD 2018-02 to obtain federal funding for project construction. Proposed changes include an increase in rental units from 28 to 40 and an increase in maximum height for the multifamily buildings from 30 to 40 feet. Amendment No. 1 will not impact the 104 single-family units and will instead provide 40 rental units for very low-income residents. The Soledad Planning Commission approved the requested amendment for recommendation to the City Council with a 3-1 vote during a public hearing on May 22, 2024. The City Council will now conduct the final review and consideration of approval.

Background
On March 6, 2019, PUD 2018-02 was approved by Council through Resolution No. 5482 for 132 housing units, including 104 Single-Family Residential Units and 28 apartment units, on an 8.56-acre parcel owned by Agha Development. After obtaining entitlements, the Project developer entered into 203
an Affordable Housing Agreement with the City of Soledad to construct 28 low-income and very-lowincome rental units and 24 moderate ownership units for a total of 52 affordable housing units.

After careful consideration of the project with partner Eden Housing, an affordable housing non-profit agency, the applicant is proposing a redesign. The proposed redesign is crucial for Eden Housing as it must comply with appropriate property amenities to apply for tax credits in the summer of 2024. The project will serve very low-income families ranging from 30-60% of the Area Median Income (AMI).

The units will remain affordable under regulatory control by the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee ("CTCAC") for a minimum of 55 years.

To qualify the project for tax credits, an amendment to the approved PUD 2018-02 must reflect the additional units, increase the maximum height, and modify parking standards.

Review & Analysis
Planned Development Permit Amendment
As described in Soledad Municipal Code section 17.38.230, Planned Unit Developments (PUD) are intended to promote efficient land use through increased design flexibility and quality site planning.

The planned development concept allows departure from standard property development regulations when development is planned as a unified, integrated whole and incorporates outstanding design features and amenities.

The proposed amendments to PUD 2018-02 are underlined in Exhibit A, attached to this report. The amendments to the project will include a building height increase, parking minimums, and an increase in the number of units to qualify for federal funding and provide affordable rental housing units in Soledad. The proposed amendment will show the new units and relax the development standards (height, parking).

Based on the approved PUD 2018-02, the approved density is 22 units per acre for the 8.55-acre site, establishing a maximum number of 188 units. With the requested changes, the applicant is proposing an increase in the number of multifamily rental units from 28 to 40. The proposed amendment will remain under the approved density as approved through PUD 2018-02. No additional changes will apply to the 104 single-family units, thus providing 144 housing units.

Under SMC 17.14 R-3 Residential High-Density District, buildings have a maximum height of 30 feet.

To use land efficiently and provide the number of proposed affordable units, the applicant and partner propose a maximum height of 40 feet for their project. Modification from the property development standards enables the developer and partner to construct additional units in exchange for providing a public benefit, such as affordable housing units. As the City endeavors to implement the 6th Cycle Housing Element and prioritize affordable housing units, public and private partnerships are imperative to enable developers to leverage the heightened density for enhanced economic value. Simultaneously, adding more affordable housing units accrues benefits to cities and towns, providing maximum effective density and improved aesthetics through increased flexibility in building siting.

Amendment No. 1 to PUD 2018-02 also proposes a change to the minimum off-street parking requirements. The original requirement for the multi-family units was 54 parking spaces, but the applicant now proposes only 50 parking stalls due to the addition of a park and community room amenity. The off-street parking is designed to be integrated into the development to minimize its impact on neighboring properties. According to SMC 17.36.020, the Planning Commission may approve the 204
reduction of parking requirements when special circumstances apply to the property and consistent with SMC 17.36.020. All off-street parking is located within the proposed project area and meet minimum parking counts. Due to the added amenities, special circumstances are applicable for modifying off-street parking requirements, as noted in SMC 17.36.020 and approved through PUD 2018-02.

A PUD permit requires review and consideration by the Planning Commission before a recommendation is made to the City Council for final review. The Planning Commission initially reviewed the proposed changes during a special public hearing to consider findings for recommendation. On May 22, 2024, the Planning Commission conditionally approved PUD 2018-02 Amendment No. 1 with a 3-1 vote. The action taken by the Planning Commission included approval of the parking reduction and a recommendation to waive maximum height restrictions up to 40 feet in height. Planning Commission concerns included but were not limited to parking impact, ingress and egress, height restrictions, and project affordability. The project does not anticipate changes to the subdivision site plan, except for an exemption to the height of the multi-family complex. In regards to parking, the project meets the minimum parking standards for affordable housing of at least 1 parking space per unit.

In regards to affordability, the project will provide 40 very low-income units of affordable housing, which will contribute to the 6th Cycle Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA). Table 1 provides details of the assigned RHNA for Soledad, counting that the 40 low-income units will help fulfill the requirement of 100 very low-income units to meet the RHNA for the 6th cycle update.

To approve a Planned Development Permit or an amendment thereto, the proposed planned development must comply with the requirements set forth in SMC section 17.38.230. Again, PUD 2018-02 was approved, and the City found that the project was consistent with the municipal code requirements. Now, the applicant proposes to change the design of the buildings to accommodate the proposed additional units, including, but not limited to, building height. To approve the proposed amendment to PUD 2018 -02, the City must find that the permit is still consistent with the requirements of SMC section 17.38.230 and, specifically, that the design ensures compatibility and harmony with existing and planned uses on adjacent properties and the project is consistent with the purpose and intent of the off-street parking requirements set forth in section 17.36.020. Staff believes that the revised design remains compatible and in harmony with adjacent properties and that all requirements of SMC section 17.38.230 are met. Furthermore, Staff believes that the proposed parking reduction is still consistent with the intent to the approved use in PUD 2018-02. 2005 General Plan Consistency and Findings:

The proposed PUD 2018-02 Amendment No. 1 is consistent with the 2005 General Plan, specifically:
205
General Plan Policy L19 states, "In general, higher densities of residential development shall be located in areas served by the widest range of urban services, and shall be preferred along collector and arterial streets, within walking distance of schools, city parks, and transit stops.” The proposed development is located within a high-density residential zone and is consistent with the allowable use.

General Plan Policy L18 requires that “The infill of existing residential lots shall be encouraged.” The proposed development is located within an existing infill location along the northeastern property within the City limits.

General Plan Policy H9 states that: “The City of Soledad shall ensure that city site improvement standards, development review procedures, and development fees do not unreasonably constraint the development, conservation, and rehabilitation of housing.” The subject site is designated Multi-family Residential, which allows for the development of multifamily housing such as apartments, condominiums, and townhouses at a density of 13-22 dwelling units per gross acre. In addition, the proposed project plans to develop a community center and other recreational activities to benefit its residents. The project location is also near an elementary school and Santa Barbara Park, Lum, and Peverini Park.

Staf Recommendation:

The City Council may consider the following conclusions that arise from these policies and standards:

The City favors infill development of the type proposed in areas such as this, where urban services are available to serve the estimated 40 rental units.

The City's General Plan prioritizes the design of multi-family housing to achieve neighborhood compatibility and community character objectives, which is higher than achieving maximum density to meet housing objectives.

Staff is seeking City Council action to approve Resolution No. ________ based on the information contained in this report. The approval of PUD 2018-02 Amendment No.1 is essential to provide 40 affordable housing units for low-income residents of Soledad for over a 55-year term. Staff believes it is in the City’s interest to facilitate the creation of these 40 affordable housing units so that Eden Housing can apply for tax credits in the summer of 2024.

Financial Considerations
There will be no impact on the General Fund.

Alternatives
Approve the Resolution to approve Amendment No. 1 to PUD 2018-02 ; or Do not approve the Resolution to approve Amendment No. 1 to PUD 2018-02 and provide staff with direction.

Planning/CEQA
PUD 2018-02 was reviewed and approved in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). A Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the larger Miravale Partners -Hambey, which includes this Parcel E site. The EIR was completed and certified by the Soledad City Council on May 19, 2000 (State Clearinghouse No. 97121038). PUD 2018-02 was approved as a later activity within the scope of that EIR. The proposed amendment to PUD 2018-02 is similarly within the scope of the project analyzed in the EIR and thus requires no further analysis under 206

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Lot 5 - Affordable Housing proposes a revision to the multi-family component of the previously entitled Miravel Parcel E. The previous program provided for some inclusionary housing between two multi-family buildings on Lot 5. The revised program will provide 100% tax-credit affordable housing in a large-family mix within the same footprint as the two previously entitled buildings. The proposed scheme will increase the unit count from 26 to 40, by adding an additional story to Building A. The project will meet all TCAC requirements for large-family mix including but not limited to a community room, support staff offices, shared laundry facility and a protected kid play area. The project intends to utilize concessions and waivers under State Density Bonus Law in order to increase building height ,number of stories, and reduce parking requirements. The concessions and waivers are as follows: CONCESSIONS: Reduce required parking from 63 to 50 (21% reduction)WAIVERS: 1) Increase overall height in Building A from 25'-5.5 to XX 2) Increase allowed storeies in Building A from 2 to 3. The revised program seeks an Entitlement Revision Approval.
