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. In
1995-96, the City Of Dublin and other agencies in Alameda County took possession ofPG&E-owned street
lights in order to reduce maintenance costs. The 1996-97 assessment was reduced from the 1995-96 level
by.30%.
For Fiscal Year 1998-99, no change is recommended with respect to the method of determining the
assessments. The assessment for a single-family house is estimated to be$13.26, which is the same as the
1997-98 assessment. As shown on page 5 of the Engineer's Report,the assessment for a commercial
property is a factor of 5.5 multiplied by the single family rate or$72.93 multiplied by the'acreage of the
property. Vacant parcels pay one half the rate of developed parcels.
• Over the past two years, a portion of the reserve in this District was utilized for the purchase of street
lights from Pacific Gas and Electric Co. A reserve remains for future pole replacement funding. The City
owns approximately 1,800 street lights, a number of which exceed 30 years of age.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolutions approving the preliminary Report
and setting a public hearing date of July 21, 1998. ,
