FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Proposed District cost estimate for Fiscal Year 1991-
92 is $311,293, including an accumulated reserve for future pole replacement.
An estimated $119,553 will be carried over from 1990-91 in the form of
reserves. $181,940 will be assessed to property owners for the 1991-92 street
lighting costs.
DESCRIPTION: In 1983, the City Council formed a Citywide Street
Lighting Assessment District to replace the County of Alameda Lighting Service
Area.
On August 13, 1984, the City Council approved the Annual Engineer's Report and
ordered levy of assessments for the first time. The District expenditures for
the last seven fiscal years and budget for 1991-92 are detailed on the
attached page.
The 1991-92 District assessment will increase approximately 6.6% over that for
Fiscal Year 1990-91 due to increases in energy cost and the number of street
lights. The assessment to individual property owners is not anticipated to
increase by the same percentage because of the increase in the number of
housing units.
A reserve fund has been built into previous budgets for future pole
replacements at the economic life of the poles and for unexpected costs to the
District.
For Fiscal Year 1991-92, no change is recommended with respect to the method
of determining the assessments. The District diagram boundary is proposed to
be the same as the City Limits; no annexations were made in the period between
March 1, 1990 and February 28, 1991. The actual assessments to property
owners will be calculated once the City receives the tax rolls from the County
Assessor's Office.
Last year's assessment for a single-family house was $18.24. Staff would
estimate that the 1991-92 assessment would be approximately $19.00.

METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT
The assessments shall be spread using a method of "factor rates"
assigned to different land uses.
The establishment of the apportionment of a factor rate of "1" will be
calculated by dividing the total assessment of the year by the sum of factor
rate numbers assigned wherein the factor rates are assigned as follows:
Use Factor Rate (x 1/2 if vacant)
Ox Exempt (Gov't./Utility/etc.) 0
lx & 73 Single Family Residential & Condo 1
2x Small Multiples (2-4 units) 3
3x Commercial 5.5/ac.
4x Industrial 5.5/ac.
5x Rural 0.5
6x (except 65) Institutional 5.5/ac.
7x (except 73) Apartments 6
8x Commercial 5.5/ac.
9x Commercial 5.5/ac.
65 Cemeteries 0
xx9 Common Open Space 0
The assessment of each parcel shall be established by multiplying the
factor rate for that parcel by the apportionment for a factor rate of 1.
