I. INTRODUCTION
The City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. AD01 -3 (the
"District ") is proposed for formation to provide funding for the installation, maintenance and
improvement of the parkway landscaping and related improvements along and adjacent to
Poindexter Avenue, and maintenance of storm drainage catch basin inserts within
Tentative Tract 5161 (Cabrillo Economic Development). This District results from
agreements or conditions of development approval between the City of Moorpark and the
property owner whereby the City and property owner agreed on setback landscaping
abutting the properties to reduce the visual impact of buildings on the properties, to
enhance public views and resources and to improve the appeal of the community. In
addition, the District provides for storm water quality efforts in accordance with the
requirements of the City Urban Stormwater Discharge Permit issued to the City of
Moorpark pursuant to the federally mandated National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System program.
This Engineer's Report ( "Report") was prepared to establish the budget for the services
that would be funded by the proposed Fiscal Year 2001 -02 assessments and to determine
the benefits received from the maintenance and improvements by property within the
District and the method of assessment apportionment to lots and parcels. This Report and
the proposed assessments have been made pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act
of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the California Streets and Highways Code (the "Act ") and
Article XIIID of the California Constitution (the "Article "). For a more complete description of
the Act and the Article, please refer to Appendix A and Appendix B.
In lieu of a mailed ballot proceeding, the property owner will submit a Petition and Waiver to
the Council for approval. In submitting this document to the City, the property owner (1)
requests that the new assessment district be formed; and (2) waives all rights conferred by
Proposition 218 with respect to the approval of the new assessment by mailed ballot.
Following submittal of this Report and the property owner's Petition/Waiver to the City of
Moorpark City Council (the "Council ") for preliminary approval, the Council may, by
Resolution, call for a Public Hearing on the proposed establishment of assessments for
landscaping maintenance and improvements. The public hearing must be held for the
purpose of allowing public testimony regarding the proposed assessments. This hearing is
scheduled for June 20, 2001 at 6:30 p.m. At this hearing, the Council may take action to
form the District and to approve the levy of the assessments for fiscal year 2001 -02. If the
assessments are so confirmed and approved, the levies would be submitted to the County
Auditor /Controller in August 2001 for inclusion on the property tax roll for Fiscal Year 2001-
02.
In each subsequent year for which the assessments will be levied, the Council must direct
the preparation of an Engineer's Report, budgets and proposed assessments for the
upcoming fiscal year. After the Engineer's Report is completed, the Council may
preliminarily approve the Engineer's Report and proposed assessments and establish the
date for a public hearing on the continuation of the assessments.

V. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
A. Method of Apportionment
This section of the Engineer's Report includes an explanation of the benefits to be
derived from the installation, maintenance and servicing of park facilities throughout the
City, and the methodology used to apportion the total assessment to properties within
the City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. AD01 -3.
The City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No. AD01 -3
consists of all Assessor Parcels within the boundaries of Tentative Tract 5161 as defined
by the County of Ventura tax code areas. The parcels include all privately or publicly
owned parcels within said boundaries. The method used for apportioning the
assessment is based upon the proportional special benefits to be derived by the
properties in the City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance District No.
AD01 -3 over and above general benefits conferred on real property or to the public at
large. The apportionment of special benefit is a two step process: the first step is to
identify the types of special benefit arising from the improvements, and the second step
is to allocate the assessments to property based on the estimated relative special benefit
for each type of property.
B. Discussion of Benefit
In summary, the assessments can only be levied based on the special benefit to
property. This benefit is received by property over and above any general benefits.
Moreover, such benefit is not based on any one property owner's use of the District's
setback landscaping or a property owner's specific demographic status. With reference
to the requirements for assessments, Section 22573 of the Landscaping and Lighting
Act of 1972 states:
'The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may
be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net
amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated
benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements. "
Proposition 218, as codified in Article XIIID of the California Constitution, has confirmed
that assessments must be based on the special benefit to property:
"No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the
reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. "
The following benefit categories summarize the types of special benefit to residential,
commercial, industrial and other lots and parcels resulting from the installation,
maintenance and servicing of landscaping improvements to be provided with the
City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District No. AD01 -3 05117101
Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2001 -02, by Shilts Consultants, Inc. Page 5
0061JA
assessment proceeds. These categories of special benefit are derived from the statutes
passed by the California Legislature and other studies which describe the types of
special benefit received by property from maintenance and improvements such as those
proposed by the City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No.
AD01 -3. These types of special benefit are summarized as follows:
A. Protection of views, scenery and other resources values and environmental benefits
enjoyed by residents, customers and guests and preservation of public assets
maintained by the City.
B. Potential for increased economic opportunity.
C. Reduced cost of local government in law enforcement, public health care, and fire
prevention because improved and well - maintained facilities provide a healthy
alternative for youth and adult activities.
D. Enhanced quality of life and desirability of the area.
E. Specific enhancement of property values.
These benefit factors, when applied to property in the District, specifically increase the
value of the land within the District. For example, the assessments will provide funding
to improve and maintain the landscaping adjoining the properties in the District. Such
improved and well- maintained setback landscaping enhances the overall quality and
desirability of the properties. In turn, property values are specifically enhanced by the
availability of improved and well - maintained landscaping in the area. In addition, the
setback landscaping allowed for the construction of buildings on the property with
reduced setbacks from the property lines than would otherwise be allowed pursuant to
City zoning requirements. Such reduced setbacks allow for greater improvement
coverage ratios, which specifically enhances the value of the properties in the District.
C. General versus Special Benefit
The proceeds from the City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District
No. AD01 -3 would be used to fund improvements and increased levels of maintenance
to the grounds adjoining the properties in the District. In absence of the City of Moorpark
Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District No. AD01 -3, such improvements would
not be provided and the properties could be subject to increased setback requirements.
The District is specifically proposed for formation to provide additional and improved
public resources and reduced setbacks for property in the District. In absence of the
assessments, these public resources would not be created and revenues would not be
available for their continued maintenance and improvement. Additionally, the increased
burden to the stormwater drainage system, and the consequent requirements mandated
by the City Urban Stormwater Discharge Permit, are a direct result of the development of
the properties in the District. Therefore, the assessments solely provide special benefit
to property in the District over and above the general benefits conferred by the general
facilities of the City.
City oJMoorpark Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District No. ADO 1-3 05117101
Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2001 -02, by Shilts Consultants, Inc. Page 6
C :0001- 2
D. Method of Assessment
The second step in apportioning assessments is to determine the relative special benefit
for each property. This process involves determining the relative benefit received by
each property in relation to a single family home, or, in other words, on the basis of
Single Family Equivalents (SFE). This SFE methodology is commonly used to distribute
assessments in proportion to estimated special benefit and is generally recognized as
providing the basis for a fair and appropriate distribution of assessments. For the
purposes of this Engineer's Report, all properties are designated a SFE value, which is
each property's relative benefit in relation to a single family home on one parcel. In this
case, the "benchmark" property is the single family detached dwelling which is one
Single Family Equivalent or one SFE.
E. Assessment Apportionment
The proposed assessments br AD01 -3 would provide direct and special benefit to
properties in this District. The properties within Tentative Tract 5161 consist of 59
residential single family dwellings that are either improved or proposed for development,
each of which receives similar benefit from the proposed improvements. Therefore, the
Engineer has determined that the appropriate method of apportionment of the benefits
derived by all parcels is on a SFE basis.
All properties that are specially benefited are assessed. Public right -of -way parcels,
well, reservoir or other water rights parcels, limited access open space parcels,
watershed parcels and common area parcels typically do not generate employees,
residents, customers or guests. Moreover, many of these parcels have limited economic
value and, therefore, do not benefit from specific enhancement of property value. Such
parcels are, therefore, not specially benefited and are not assessed.
In the event that the annual assessment from a previous fiscal year for property in ADO 1-
3 is delinquent and uncollected, the budget for the new fiscal year may be increased by
the amount of delinquent assessment, and the total budget, including the delinquent
assessments, may be allocated to all other non - delinquent properties on an SFE basis.
Any increase in the assessment on other properties in AD01 -3 resulting from such
delinquent assessments, or the annual CPI adjustment, will be considered authorized
increases in the assessment and shall not require additional approval by property
owners through a mailed assessment ballot proceeding, pursuant to Article XIIID of the
California Constitution.
The assessment is subject to an annual adjustment tied to the Consumer Price Index for
the Los Angeles Area as of December of each succeeding year (the CPI). In the event
that the actual assessment rate for any given year is not increased by an amount equal
to the CPI change, any such deferred assessment increase may be added to the total
amount assessed in any subsequent year. In such event, the maximum authorized
assessment amount shall be equal to the base year assessment as adjusted by the
increase to the CPI, plus any and all CPI adjustments deferred in any and all prior years.
City of Moorpark Landscaping and Lighting Maintenance Assessment District No. AD01 -3 05117101
Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2001 -02, by Shilts Consultants, Inc. Page 7
0 013
In addition, the annual adjustment may be increased due to delinquent assessments on
property in AD01 -3 as specified above.
I. Appeals and Interpretation
Any property owner who feels that the assessment levied on the subject property is in
error as a result of incorrect information being used to apply the foregoing method of
assessment, may file a written appeal with the Director of Public Works or her or his
designee. Any such appeal is limited to correction of an assessment during the then
current or, if before July 1, the upcoming fiscal year. Upon the filing of any such appeal,
the Director of Public Works or his or her designee will promptly review the appeal and
any information provided by the property owner. If the Director of Public Works or her or
his designee finds that the assessment should be modified, the appropriate changes
shall be made to the assessment roll. If any such changes are approved after the
assessment roll has been filed with the County for collection, the Director of Public
Works or his or her designee is authorized to refund to the property owner the amount of
any approved reduction. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the
Director of Public Works or her or his designee, may refer their appeal to the City
Council of the City of Moorpark and the decision of the City Council of the City of
Moorpark shall be final.

charge.

special benefit conferred upon the real property. "Assessment" includes, but is
not limited to, "special assessment," "benefit assessment," "maintenance
assessment" and "special assessment tax."
(c) "Capital cost" means the cost of acquisition, installation, construction,
reconstruction, or replacement of a permanent public improvement by an agency.
(d) "District" means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will
receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property- related
service.

property ownership.
(i) "Special benefit" means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general
benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large.
General enhancement of property value does not constitute "special benefit."
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 13D
(ASSESSMENT AND PROPERTY-RELATED FEE REFORM)
SEC. 3. Property Taxes, Assessments, Fees and Charges Limited.
(a) No tax, assessment, fee, or charge shall be assessed by any agency upon any
parcel of property or upon any person as an incident of property ownership
except: (1) The ad valorem property tax imposed pursuant to Article XIII and
Article XIIIA. (2) Any special tax receiving a two-thirds vote pursuant to Section 4
of Article XIIIA. (3) Assessments as provided by this article. (4) Fees or charges
for property related services as provided by this article.
(b) For purposes of this article, fees for the provision of electrical or gas service shall
not be deemed charges or fees imposed as an incident of property ownership.
CALIFORNIA
CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 13D
(ASSESSMENT AND PROPERTY-RELATED FEE REFORM)
SEC. 4. Procedures and Requirements for All Assessments.
(a) An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which
will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment
will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified
parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a
public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public
improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided. No
assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost
of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Only special benefits
are assessable, and an agency shall separate the general benefits from the
special benefits conferred on a parcel. Parcels within a district that are owned or
used by any agency, the State of California or the United States shall not be
exempt from assessment unless the agency can demonstrate by clear and
convincing evidence that those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special
benefit.
(b) All assessments shall be supported by a detailed engineer's report prepared by a
registered professional engineer certified by the State of California.

Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2001 -02, by Shilts Consultants, Inc. Page 18
L00024
(c) The amount of the proposed assessment for each identified parcel shall be
calculated and the record owner of each parcel shall be given written notice by
mail of the proposed assessment, the total amount thereof chargeable to the
entire district, the amount chargeable to the owner's particular parcel, the
duration of the payments, the reason for the assessment and the basis upon
which the amount of the proposed assessment was calculated, together with the
date, time, and location of a public hearing on the proposed assessment. Each
notice shall also include, in a conspicuous place thereon, a summary of the
procedures applicable to the completion, return, and tabulation of the ballots
required pursuant to subdivision (d), including a disclosure statement that the
existence of a majority protest, as defined in subdivision (e), will result in the
assessment not being imposed.
(d) Each notice mailed to owners of identified parcels within the district pursuant to
subdivision (c) shall contain a ballot which includes the agency's address for
receipt of the ballot once completed by any owner receiving the notice whereby
the owner may indicate his or her name, reasonable identification of the parcel,
and his or her support or opposition to the proposed assessment.
(e) The agency shall conduct a public hearing upon the proposed assessment not
less than 45 days after mailing the notice of the proposed assessment to record
owners of each identified parcel. At the public hearing, the agency shall consider
all protests against the proposed assessment and tabulate the ballots. The
agency shall not impose an assessment if there is a majority protest. A majority
protest exists if, upon the conclusion of the hearing, ballots submitted in
opposition to the assessment exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the
assessment. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots shall be weighted according to
the proportional financial obligation of the affected property.
(f) In any legal action contesting the validity of any assessment, the burden shall be
on the agency to demonstrate that the property or properties in question receive
a special benefit over and above the benefits conferred on the public at large and
that the amount of any contested assessment is proportional to, and no greater
than, the benefits conferred on the property or properties in question.
(g) Because only special benefits are assessable, electors residing within the district
who do not own property within the district shall not be deemed under this
Constitution to have been deprived of the right to vote for any assessment. If a
court determines that the Constitution of the United States or other federal law
requires otherwise, the assessment shall not be imposed unless approved by a
two-thirds vote of the electorate in the district in addition to being approved by the
property owners as required by subdivision (e).

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 13D
(ASSESSMENT AND PROPERTY-RELATED FEE REFORM)
SEC. 5. Effective Date.
Pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 10 of Article II, the provisions of this article shall
become effective the day after the election unless otherwise provided. Beginning July 1,
1997, all existing, new, or increased assessments shall comply with this article.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following assessments existing on the effective date
of this article shall be exempt from the procedures and approval process set forth in
Section 4:
(a) Any assessment imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance
and operation expenses for sidewalks, streets, sewers, water, flood control,
drainage systems or vector control. Subsequent increases in such assessments
shall be subject to the procedures and approval process set forth in Section 4.
(b) Any assessment imposed pursuant to a petition signed by the persons owning all
of the parcels subject to the assessment at the time the assessment is initially
imposed. Subsequent increases in such assessments shall be subject to the
procedures and approval process set forth in Section 4.
(c) Any assessment the proceeds of which are exclusively used to repay bonded
indebtedness of which the failure to pay would violate the Contract Impairment
Clause of the Constitution of the United States.
(d) Any assessment which previously received majority voter approval from the
voters voting in an election on the issue of the assessment. Subsequent
increases in those assessments shall be subject to the procedures and approval
process set forth in Section 4.
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 13D (ASSESSMENT AND PROPERTY -
RELATED FEE REFORM)
SEC. 6. Property Related Fees and Charges.
(a) Procedures for New or Increased Fees and Charges. An agency shall follow the
procedures pursuant to this section in imposing or increasing any fee or charge
as defined pursuant to this article, including, but not limited to, the following: (1)
The parcels upon which a fee or charge is proposed for imposition shall be
identified. The amount of the fee or charge proposed to be imposed upon each
parcel shall be calculated. The agency shall provide written notice by mail of the
proposed fee or charge to the record owner of each identified parcel upon which
the fee or charge is proposed for imposition, the amount of the fee or charge
proposed to be imposed upon each, the basis upon which the amount of the
proposed fee or charge was calculated, the reason for the fee or charge, together
with the date, time, and location of a public hearing on the proposed fee or
charge. (2) The agency shall conduct a public hearing upon the proposed fee or
charge not less than 45 days after mailing the notice of the proposed fee or
charge to the record owners of each identified parcel upon which the fee or
charge is proposed for imposition. At the public hearing, the agency shall
consider all protests against the proposed fee or charge. If written protests

Engineer's Report, Fiscal Year 2001 -02, by Shilts Consultants, Inc. Page 20
e 000 6
against the proposed fee or charge are presented by a majority of owners of the
identified parcels, the agency shall not impose the fee or charge.
(b) Requirements for Existing, New or Increased Fees and Charges. A fee or charge
shall not be extended, imposed, or increased by any agency unless it meets all of
the following requirements: (1) Revenues derived from the fee or charge shall not
exceed the funds required to provide the property related service. (2) Revenues
derived from the fee or charge shall not be used for any purpose other than that
for which the fee or charge was imposed. (3) The amount of a fee or charge
imposed upon any parcel or person as an incident of property ownership shall
not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to the parcel. (4) No
fee or charge may be imposed for a service unless that service is actually used
by, or immediately available to, the owner of the property in question. Fees or
charges based on potential or future use of a service are not permitted. Standby
charges, whether characterized as charges or assessments, shall be classified
as assessments and shall not be imposed without compliance with Section 4. (5)
No fee or charge may be imposed for general governmental services including,
but not limited to, police, fire, ambulance or library services, where the service is
available to the public at large in substantially the same manner as it is to
property owners. Reliance by an agency on any parcel map, including, but not
limited to, an assessor's parcel map, may be considered a significant factor in
determining whether a fee or charge is imposed as an incident of property
ownership for purposes of this article. In any legal action contesting the validity of
a fee or charge, the burden shall be on the agency to demonstrate compliance
with this article.
(c) Voter Approval for New or Increased Fees and Charges. Except for fees or
charges for sewer, water, and refuse collection services, no property related fee
or charge shall be imposed or increased unless and until that fee or charge is
submitted and approved by a majority vote of the property owners of the property
subject to the fee or charge or, at the option of the agency, by a two- thirds vote of
the electorate residing in the affected area. The election shall be conducted not
less than 45 days after the public hearing. An agency may adopt procedures
similar to those for increases in assessments in the conduct of elections under
this subdivision.
(d) Beginning July 1, 1997, all fees or charges shall comply with this section.
