FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The proposed District cost estimate for Fiscal Year 1992-93
is $328,489, including an accumulated reserve for future pole replacement. An
estimated $136,450 will be carried over from 1991-92 in the form of reserves.
$180,739 is proposed to be assessed to property owners for the 1992-93 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 three years and the budget for 1992-93 are detailed on Exhibit 1.
Although it is anticipated that the costs will increase slightly (including energy),
the 1992-93 District assessment is proposed to decrease by approximately $1,198
compared to Fiscal Year 1991-92 due to an attempt to hold the reserve constant
rather than to have it increase.
A reserve fund has been built into previous budgets for future pole replacement at
the economic life of the pole and for unexpected costs to the District.
For Fiscal Year 1992-93, no change is recommended with respect to the method of
determining the assessments. The District boundary will change to include recent
annexations of the Hansen Ranch and Donlan Canyon project areas, which Will be
assessed as vacant land until such time as construction takes place.
Last year's assessment for a single-family house was $18.80. The estimated single-
family assessment for 1992-93 is expected to be slightly less. The actual
assessments will be calculated once Staff has received the updated tax rolls from
the Assessor's Office.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, deliberate, and
adopt the resolution approving the Engineer's Report, confirming the diagram and
assessment, and ordering levy of assessment for 1992-93.
