AD07_01 _Pardee_petition AD07 -01 [TT -5045] Petition and Waiver June 21, 2006 Page 2 C. Proposition 218 The provisions of Proposition 218 require that any new assessment, or any increase to an existing assessment, must first be approved by a Mail Ballot provided to the owner(s) of the affected properties. An alternative procedure for forming assessment districts for new developments, is to have the developer(s) / property owner(s) sign a Petition and Waiver 1) requesting the formation of the assessment district, and 2) waiving all rights conferred by Proposition 218 with regard to Mail Ballots. D. Petition and Waiver Attached as Exhibit 1, is a Petition and Waiver, signed by the property owner, requesting formation of the District. [Note: The entire Petition/Waiver (Exhibit 1) was distributed by separate Memo. Only portion of the Petition/Waiver attached hereto is the diagram (Ex. 'A') of the District.] Attached as Exhibit 'A' to the Petition/Waiver, is a District Boundary Map. The boundary of the proposed District is the boundary of Tentative Tract Map No. 5045, Pardee Homes. Attached as Exhibit 'B', is a Summary Description of the proposed District. Exhibit 'C' of the Petition/Waiver defines the Improvements to be maintained by the District. It should be noted that the Developer has paid a fee to cover City costs related to this District formation. E. Resolution Initiating Proceedings Attached as Exhibit 2 to this report is a Resolution initiating the proceedings for the formation of the District. Should the City Council approve and accept the Petition/Waiver and adopt the attached Resolution, it would be the intent of staff to have the City's Assessment Engineer proceed with the preparation of the Engineer's Report. F. Primary Assessment & Back -Up Assessment As described and defined in Exhibit 'B' of the Petition/Waiver, the District will have a primary and back -up assessment, generally described as follows: 1. Primary Assessment. The proposed District will fund City costs related to the maintenance of certain improvements to be initially assumed by the City, generally described as follows: a.

Trails: All Trails c. Drainage Improvements: Detention Basins (Three Eachl: Debris Basins [Four Each]: All access roads: d. Storm Drains: designated storm drains and catch basins 2. Back -Up Assessment. The District will also be structured to allow the City to recover costs for City maintenance of other designated landscape improvements, should it ever become necessary for the City to assume the maintenance of those improvements. Initially those designated landscape improvements will be owned and maintained by the Home Owner's Association for the Tract. However, should it ever be determined by the City that the maintenance provided by the HOA is inadequate, the City could take over the maintenance of those facilities and use the District to fund those additional City costs. 3. Assessment vs. Levy. The Engineer's Report for the District will state that the total assessment amount will be an amount sufficient to fund the cost of maintaining all of the improvements identified in the report. However, the Engineer's Report will also state that the City would only levy that portion of the total assessment related to the cost of maintaining the improvements actually maintained by the City. G. Assessment Amount The proposed assessment and levy amounts are discussed and defined in detail in Exhibit `B' of the Petition/Waiver. That analysis is summarized as follows: Primary Back -up Description Assessment ($) Assessment ($) Total ($) Total Annual Assessment 1,615,145 155,513 1,770,658 Number of EDUs ** 585.5 585.5 Total Annual Assessment Per EDU 2,758.57 265.61 3,024.18 ** Equivalent Dwelling Units AD07_01_Pardee_petition „�dA -�” C ^ ✓lt `_P"', r AD07 -01 [TT -5045] Petition and Waiver June 21, 2006 Page 4 As discussed above, initially the City would only levy an amount equal to the Primary Assessment (as discussed above) The levy of the total assessment would only occur if and when the City assumed the maintenance of those HOA maintained improvements identified in the Engineer's Report.

City Improvements: The primary purpose of the District is to levy an assessment sufficient to fund the cost of providing for the servicing and maintenance of the City Improvements as more particularly defined and described herein. For the purposes of this District, the term City Improvements shall refer to only those City owned and maintained facilities and improvements specifically identified and listed in Exhibit C" of the Petition. 3.

G. Primary Assessment and Back -up Assessments The purpose for the Primary Assessment is to fund the cost of maintaining the City Improvements, as well as costs associated with the administration of the District. AD_07_a_Pardee Petition 0606 Exhibit `B' [Page 3] Tract 5045: Assessment District AD07 -01 Summary Description In the event the Owner and /or its successor -in- interest, the future HOA, fails to maintain the HOA Improvements in a manner satisfactory to the City, the City may, at its sole discretion, take over the maintenance of the HOA Improvements. Should that occur the cost of such maintenance would be funded by the Back -up Assessment. The amount of the Total Assessment for FY 2007/08 is summarized as follows: Description Total Assessment Amount Total Number of EDUs Total Assessment per EDU Total Assessment Amount Primary Back -up Total Assessment ($) Assessment ($) Assessment ($) 1,615,145 155,513 1,770,658 585.5 585.5 585.5 2,758.57 265.61 3,024.18 Additional information about the levying of the Primary Assessment and the Back -up Assessment is set forth in Section O of this Exhibit "B ". H. Administrative Costs As noted above, the Annual Budget includes certain administrative costs related to the administration of the annual process required to review and approve a new assessment amount for each successive fiscal year. I. Fiscal Year 2007/08 Total Annual Assessment Amount The Fiscal Year 2007/08 total annual assessment amount shall be equal to the total estimated annual cost and budget as defined herein above as being equal to $1,770,658.00. Amount of Assessment to be Levied As stated elsewhere herein, it is the intent of the City to only levy that portion of the Fiscal Year 2007/08 total assessment related to the maintenance of the City Improvements. The amount of the FY 2007/08 assessment to be levied would, therefore, only be $1,615,145.00. K. Apportionment of Total Assessment Amount 1. General Provisions: The District is to consist of all of the public or privately owned parcels or lots [herein "Lots "] proposed to be created by the Tentative Map, and /or any such parcels or lots which might be created at any date in the future by further subdivision of the properties within the boundaries of the Tentative Map. 2. Special vs. General Benefits: The method used for apportioning the assessment is based upon the proportional special benefits to be derived by each Lot within the District 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 benefit arising from the AD_07_a_Pardee Petition_0 606 Exhibit `B' [Page 4] Tract 5045: Assessment District AD07 -01 Summary Description improvements, and the second step is to allocate the assessments to each Lot based upon the estimated relative special benefit for each type of Lot. The types of special benefit to be derived by the "benefited" properties, resulting from the installation, maintenance and servicing of the Improvements are generally summarized as follows: a) Protection of views, scenery and other resource 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 healthcare, and fire prevention because improved and well- maintained facilities provide a healthier alternative for youth and adult activities. d) Enhanced quality of life and desirability of the area. e) Specific enhancement of property values. f) Creation of individual lots for commercial use that, in the -absence of the assessments, would not have been created. These benefit factors, when applied to property within the District, specifically increase the values of the land within the District. For example, the assessments will provide funding to improve and maintain the landscaping upon and /or adjoining the properties in the District. Such improved and well- maintained setback and median landscaping will enhance 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. 3. Special Benefits to Properties Within the District: The Maintenance costs shall be allocated to each public or privately owned Lot within the District based upon the approved ultimate Land Use of each Lot, calculated as follows a) Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) upon the Land Use of the Lot, as follows: ..................... ............ Land Use Single Family Residential Multi- Family Residential City Park .............. Schools Open Space or Habitat Areas Each Lot shall be assigned an EDU factor based b) Total EDUs: The total - number of EDUs for all of the assessable Lots within the District is calculated as follows` ADO 7_a_Pardee Petition 0606 Total Number Land Use Rate Number Units of EDUs Single Family Residential 1 451 Lots 451 Multi- Family Residential 075 102 Res.

The Fiscal Year 2006/07 total per Lot assessment amount is calculated as follows: Description Total Annual Assessment: Total Number of EDU: Fiscal Year 2006/07 Total Annual Per EDU Assessment: Primary Back -up Total Assessment Assessment Assessment $1,770,658.00 585.5 $1,615,145.00 585.5 $2,758.57 $155,51 3.00 585.5 $265.61 $3,024.18 5. Delinquent Assessments: In the event the annual levied assessment for a previous fiscal year for a property in the District is delinquent and uncollected, the budget for the new fiscal year may be increased by the amount of the delinquent assessment, and the total budget, including the delinquent assessment, may be allocated to all other non'-delinquent properties on a "per acre" basis. Any increase in the assessment on other properties in the District resulting from such delinquent assessments, or the annual CPI adjustment (see below), 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. 6. Cost of Living Adjustment: The annual 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 (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. In addition, the annual adjustment may be increased due to delinquent assessments on property in the District, as specified above. 7. Appeals and Interpretation: Any property owner who feels that the proposed or approved assessment amount for his /her property is in error as a result of incorrect information being used to apply the forgoing method of assessment, may file a written appeal with the Director of Public Works or his /her designee (herein "Director "). 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 such an appeal, the Director will promptly review the appeal and any information provided by the property owner. If the Director finds that the assessment amount 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 shall cause any refund amount due to the property owner to be provided to said property owner. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the Director may refer their appeal to the City Manager. Any property owner who disagrees with the decision of the City Manager may refer their appeal to the City Council. The decision of the City Council shall be final. Duration of Assessments The assessment is an annual assessment approved, for a given fiscal year, in accordance with the provisions of the Act. It is the intent of the City to undertake the review and approve of a new annual assessment prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, for as long as the assessment is deemed to be necessary and required by the City. AD_07_a_Pardee Petition 0606 Exhibit `B' [Page 6] Tract 5045: Assessment District AD07 -01 Summary Description M. Capital Improvement Reserve Fund The District will have a Capital Improvement Reserve Fund to provide for unforeseen expenses. The projected year -end balance for the Capital Improvement Reserve Fund shall not exceed three (3) years of estimated program costs for the District. If and when it is determined that that levying the maximum authorized assessment for the District in any given year, would cause the Capital Improvement Reserve Fund for the District to exceed said limit, then the amount of the approved assessment which shall be levied upon the properties within the District, shall be reduced to an amount which is estimated to not cause the Capital Improvement Reserve Fund year -end balance to exceed said limit, provided the amount levied upon the properties in the District is not less than ten percent (10 %) of the annual assessment amount. In such event, the amount of the assessment shall remain unchanged. Any reduction to the amount actually levied upon the properties in the District shall not affect the maximum authorized assessment amount for that or any future year. Upon formation of the District, it is the intent of the City to limit the amount of the Capital Reserve Fund to three hundred percent (300 %) of the estimated annual cost of maintaining and servicing the medians and islands. Should it never become necessary for the City to undertake and provide for the maintenance and servicing of the parkways, the upper limit for the Capital Improvement Reserve Fund shall be equal to three hundred percent (300 %) of the total estimated annual cost for the maintenance and servicing of all of the Improvements. Any fluctuations in the amount of the assessment actually levied upon the parcels within the District in any given year, shall not affect the maximum authorized assessment amount for that or any future year. N. Reason for Assessment The reason for the assessment is to fund City Cost for providing for the maintenance of the Improvements. O. Assessment Amount vs. Amount to be Levied Upon formation of the District, that portion of the total assessment related to the maintenance and servicing of the City Improvements shall be levied upon the Property; and that portion of the total assessment related to the maintenance and servicing of the HOA Improvements, as defined herein, shall not be levied upon the Property unless and until the City determines, at its sole discretion, that the proper maintenance and servicing of the HOA Improvements requires the City to undertake and provide for same. In the event it becomes necessary for the City to take over the maintenance and servicing of the HOA Improvements, the entire assessment shall be levied upon the Property. Prior to the beginning of each future fiscal year the City will undertake the efforts necessary to approve the annual assessments as defined and described herein, including the annual CPI increase and a determination with regard to the amount of the assessment to be levied upon the Property. AD_07_a_Pardee Petition 0606 Exhibit `B' [Page 7] Tract 5045: Assessment District AD07 -01 Summary Description Not a part: alternative language for future districts 3. Special Benefits to Properties Within the District: It has been determined that all of the properties within the District will receive a similar special benefit. The total annual assessment will, therefore, be allocated to all properties in amounts proportionate to the size of each Parcel. The Total Annual Assessment Amount will, therefore, be apportioned to each Assessor Parcel within the District using a "Per Acre" assessment amount. 3. Special Benefits to Properties Within the District. It has been determined that all of the residential parcels within the District will receive a similar special benefit. The total annual assessment will, therefore, be allocated to all residential lots equally. Any parcels owned by the HOA shall be exempt from the assessment.
