Gilbert, Director of Public Works DATE: March 22, 1996 (Meeting of 4 -3 -96) -1<. C Ccuncll Medic ilON: SUBJECT: Consider Approval of the Engineer's Report for Assessment District AD85 -1 for FY 1996/97 and the Scheduling of a Public Meeting and a Public Hearing to Consider Certain Changes to and the Ordering of the Annual Assessments for Said District This presents for approval a Resolution approving the Engineer's Report for Assessment District AD85 -1 and setting the date of a public meeting to discuss the proposed assessments for AD 85 -1 for next fiscal year, and a public hearing to consider the levy of said assessments for said District for next fiscal year. The amount of the assessments proposed in the Engineer's Report are based on a preliminary budget and fund activity summary which has been developed by staff. That and other related information is attached hereto and identified as follows: List of Exhibits Exhibit "A": Assessment Summary Exhibit "B": Fund Activity Summary Exhibit "C": Preliminary Budget for FY 1996/97 Exhibit "D ": Service Level Comparison Exhibit "E": Boundary Map Exhibit "F ": Engineer's Report Exhibit "G": Public Hearing Notice Exhibit "H": Resolution Assessment District 85 -1 was formed in 1985 pursuant to the provisions of the "Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972." This assessment district was established to allow for the funding of parks maintenance expenses through the levying of assessments as provided for in the act. As set forth in the Engineer's Report (Exhibit "E"), costs are spread to all of the lots in the City by means of a formula designed to spread said costs on the basis of benefit. The formula uses land use as a measure of "people use" in determining the relative amount of benefit received. The City must annually act to assessments. Said assessments have b formation of the district, except fo levy the parks maintenance een levied each year since the r FY 1987/88 and FY 1988/89. edS 5 -97 , rp! f ,t " % AD85 -1 Engineer's Report Page 2 DISCUSSION A. Resolution of Intent On January 17, 1996, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 96- 1175 initiating the proceedings required to consider the levy of assessments for the subject assessment district for FY 1996/97. On that date the City Council also selected the firm of Dwight French and Associates to prepare the Engineer's Report for the district. B. Preliminary Budget for FY 1996/97 Attached as Exhibit 'C' is a copy of the preliminary budget for the Parks Department budget for FY 1996/97. C. Service Level Increase Attached as Exhibit 'D' is a chart showing the increase in the service level provided to the City's thirteen (13) parks in recent years. This chart shows that the amount of parks maintenance required will increase from an average of 9.23 months per year (total months of maintenance provided to all parks, divided by thirteen) in FY 1994/95 to an estimated average of 10.77 months of maintenance in FY 1996/97. This increase in service level is one of the reasons for the anticipated increase in expenditures funded by this District. D. Proposed Staffing Level Increase The total anticipated expenditures for FY 1996/97 shown in both Exhibit 'C' and 'D' is $617,863. This amount includes an increase in personnel costs of $33,160 to fund the addition of one new Maintenance Worker in the Parks Department. The merits and justification for this increase in the staffing level for this Department will be discussed as a part of the budget review. In the event the position is not approved, the total budget for this department would be decreased to $584,703. E. Fund Activity Attached for your information as Exhibit 'B', is a summary of Fund Activity for AD 85 -1 for the period from FY 1992/93 through the proposed budget for FY 1996/97. ad85- 97.rpt AD85 -1 Engineer's Report Page 3 F. Fund Transfers 1. Prior Years -- As shown on Exhibit 'B', in recent years AD85 -1 assessment revenues have been augmented by transfers from the General Fund to fund the parks maintenance effort. A summary of those fund transfers is as follows: Fiscal Year Total ($) 1992/93 38,591 1993/94 142,769 1994/95 144,722 1995/96 Budget 175,000 Est. Actual 158,039 2. FY 1996/97 -- As shown on Exhibit 'A', it will again be necessary to augment assessment revenues to Fund 25 with funds from other sources if the assessment amount for a single - family residential property is to remain at prior year levels ( ±33.20). The amount of funds required in FY 1996/97 to maintain this assessment is approximately $250,000. 3. Engineer's Report -- The amount of the assessments identified in the Engineer's Report (Exhibit 'E') are amounts sufficient to generate the full amount of the anticipated expenditures ($617,863) identified in the preliminary budget (Exhibit 'C'). The amount of the annual assessment for a single - family residential property which is identified in the Engineer's Report is $56.80. 4. Deferred Action -- Consistent with prior year actions of the City Council, it is recommended that the Public Hearing notices to be sent to all affected properties, reflect the assessment amounts set forth in the Engineer's Report and that consideration of any fund transfer to reduce the proposed assessments be deferred until after Budget deliberations. G. Assessment District Boundary Maps Attached as Exhibit "E" is a map showing the boundaries of Assessment District AD85 -1. This map, combined with the Ventura County Assessor Maps pertaining to properties within the City of Moorpark, constitute the AD85 -1 Assessment District Boundary Maps, as required by Sections 22508, 22570 and 22574 of the Streets and Highways Code ( Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972) . &d95- 97.rpt AD85 -1 Engineer's Report Page 4 H. Engineer's Report The above described expenditure information was provided to the Assessment Engineer and used as the basis for the preparation of the attached Engineer's Report (Exhibit 'E'). Said Engineer's Report sets forth the proposed amount of the assessment for FY 1996/97 for various land use categories, along with an explanation of the Benefit Assessment Formula and other related information. I. Community Center Maintenance The City Council is advised that the "Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972" provides for the use of assessments for the improvement and /or maintenance of Community Centers. Section 22525.5 of the Streets and Highways Code states that assessments may be used for such purposes if approved by owners of at least fifty percent of the land area in the district at an election, called and held in -lieu of any required public notice or public hearing. J. Public Hearing 1. The "Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972" (Streets and Highways Code) requires a public hearing to be held prior to the annual levy of assessments, for the purpose of receiving input and to hear any protests to the proposed assessments. 2. If the amount of the assessments are to remain the same, the law does not require a notice of the public hearing to be mailed to each property being assessed. However, consistent with past practice, it is recommended that a notice of the public hearing be mailed to the owners of all of the affected properties. 3. Notwithstanding the above mentioned policy, State law requires that prior to considering any new or increased assessment, a public hearing notice must be mailed to the owners of the properties to be assessed. Said notice shall state the amount of the existing assessment, the amount of the proposed assessment and the amount of the proposed increase in the assessment. The amount of the approved estimated assessments MAY NOT EXCEED the amounts stated in the notice. Said notice must be mailed at least forty -five (45 ) days prior to the date of the hearing. Although the Notice may be postmarked April 19, 1996, the content of the notice must be finalized by April 4, 1996, to allow sufficient time for printing and handling. ed85- 97.rpt WGUA AD85 -1 Engineer's Report Page 5 4. State law also requires that prior to considering any new or increased assessment a PUBLIC MEETING shall be convened to allow the public an opportunity to discuss the proposed increased assessment. It is recommended that this PUBLIC MEETING be convened on Monday, May 20, 1996, at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers. This will be an informal meeting conducted by staff for the purpose of providing answers to questions regarding projected program costs and the methods used to spread those costs to the properties assessed. 5. Attached as Exhibit 'F' is a copy of the Public Hearing Notice for AD85 -1. Said Notice sets the time and place of both the PUBLIC MEETING (May 20, 1996, at 7:00 p.m.) and the public hearing (June 5, 1996, at 7:00 p. m.). The date of the public hearing is the date of the first City Council meeting in June, as required by law. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution (Exhibit "G") a) approving the Engineer's Report for Assessment District AD85 -1; b) declaring intention to make certain changes to and ordering the annual assessments for said assessment district for FY 1996/97; and, c) setting the dates and times of a Public Meeting and a public hearing to consider said assessments. 000102 ad85- 97.rpt EXHIBIT "A" Fiscal Year 1996/97 AD 85 -1 ASSESSMENT SUMMARY 23- Mar-96 FY 1996/97 Description Proposed Remarks ----------------------------------- - - - - -- --- - - - - -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- --- - - - - -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- - - - - -- TOTAL ANNUAL EXPENSES 617,863 See Exhibit 'C' for Total FY1995/96 Cost Projection LESS CARRY OVERS 0 See Exhibit 'B' LESS TRANSFERS IN 0 LESS OTHER (Interest, Etc.) 0 NET TOTAL ASSESSMENTS 617,863 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total Assessment Detail OW103 Assessment ------------------ - - - - -- Plus Total SF Res Trans -In Plus Funds Less Total Remaining Fiscal Year -------------- - - - - -- -------------------- Amount M ----- - - - - -- ----- - - - - -- Total ($) --- - - - - -- --- - - - - -- & Other --- - - - - -- --- - - - - -- Carryover --- - - - - -- --- - - - - -- Available --- - - - - -- --- - - - - -- Expenditures ------ - - - - -- ------ - - - - -- Carryover ------- - - - - -- ------- - - - - -- 1992/93 Actual 33.20 354,475 38,591 0 393,066 393,066 0 1993/94 Actual 33.20 355,247 146,866 0 502,113 502,113 0 1994/95 Actual 33.20 365,855 175,757 0 541,612 541,612 0 1995/96 Budget 33.20 371,780 179,198 0 550,978 550,978 0 Est.

Plans and specifications for the irrigation, landscaping, and other authorized improvements within the City are on file in the Department of Public Works. Reference is hereby made to said plans and specifications for the exact location and nature of the landscape improvements. Said plans and specifications by reference are hereby made a part of this report. SECTION 3 ASSESSMENT ROLL All parcels of real property affected are listed on the "Assessment Roll ", Exhibit "A ", which will be on file in City Hall with the City Clerk, and is made a part hereof by reference. These parcels are more particularly described in maps prepared in accordance with Section 327 of the Revenue and Taxation Code which are on file in the office of the Ventura County Assessor in the County Government Center Administration Building, 800 South Victoria Avenue, Ventura, California and which are also made a part hereof by reference. SECTION 4 ESTIMATE OF COST The City staff recommendation for the District budget is shown in Appendix "B" of this report. 3 (A)(AU SECTION 5 METHOD OF ASSESSMENT The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, in Section 22573, states that "The net amount to be assessed upon the lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the new amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements." The method and formula of benefit spread recognizes that every property within the City of Moorpark benefits from public parks and recreation facilities. The method of spreading maintenance costs is based upon the "people use" attributed to each land use within the City. This method was chosen because the benefit received by having park facilities is directly proportionate to the number of people generated by each land use. Recognizing that residential land uses within the City derive a higher degree of benefit than non - residential land uses, the formula was subdivided into two main groups, with residential land uses contributing in 75% of the assessment and non - residential uses being assessed for the remaining 25% of the maintenance costs. The benefits to residential land uses are clear. The residents of the City utilize the parks during their leisure hours. Benefits to non- residential property include such items as offering employees the opportunity to utilize the parks during lunch time and after hours, as well as providing an aesthetic environment which attracts potential employees into the area. The "people use" factors utilized in the assessment district spread formula are shown in Appendix "A ". The City Council approved a rebate procedure for disadvantaged citizens on November 1989. The procedure shall be followed as described in Appendix "F."
