This report is prepared in compliance with the requirements of Article 4 , Chapter 1, Division 15 of the Streets and Highway Code of the State of California (The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972) . SECTION 2 - GENERAL DESCRIPTION The City Council of the City of Redlands, California has considered the benefits received by lots and parcels in CRA 648 and CUP 581 from street lighting facilities and services. The City Council has ordered the preparation of this Engineer's Report including assess- ment diagram, resolutions, cost estimates, and necessary accom- panying work, preparatory to holding a public hearing to consider Annexation No. 6 to Street Lighting District No. 1 . The boundary of proposed Annexation No. 6, Street Lighting District No. 1 will include the territory within CRA 648 and CUP 581 as shown on the map entitled "Assessment Diagram of Annexation No . 6 Street Lighting District No . 1 , City of Redlands , County of San Bernardino, State of California, " which is on file in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Redlands. SECTION 3 - PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS All street lights will be owned by the City of Redlands. The street light facilities will be under the supervision of the City of Redlands. Reference is hereby made to said plans and specifications and they are by reference made a part of this report to the same extent as if they were attached hereto. SECTION 4 - IMPROVEMENTS The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 allows the confirmation of benefit assessments for the construction of improvements in addi- tion to maintenance and operation of existing facilities. Assess- ments are not anticipated to be levied under Street Lighting District No. 1 to fund the installation of street lights. - 8 - SECTION 5 - ASSESSMENT DIAGRAM The assessment diagram has been prepared and has been filed in the Office of the City Clerk. The assessment diagram by reference is hereby made a part of this report to the same extent as if it was attached hereto. For information, a reduced copy of the diagram is attached to this report. Since there are numerous locations as part of this annexation, they have been identified on the diagram 6-A and 6B. The same des- cription will be used for identification within this report. SECTION 5 - ESTIMATED COSTS AND ASSESSMENTS The developers will arrange with the City of Redlands for the installation of any required street lights. All costs associated with the installation will be borne by the developer. There will be on-going charges billed to the City by the Southern California Edison Company for the costs of energy charges, and other associated items for the street lights in the district. The charges will be in accordance with the Edison Company's LS-2 rate schedule. Incidental costs will also be assessed to the benefiting properties . These expenses include the City ' s costs in administering the district and the cost of preparing the annual engineer's report in May 1993 . The annual engineer's report will be the basis for determining the assessments for the following fiscal year. SECTION 7 - ASSESSMENT ROLL Assessments are not proposed to be levied at this time on properties within this annexation. Therefore an assessment roll will not be prepared as part of this annexation proceeding. SECTION S - PROPOSED BASIS FOR ASSESSMENTS The Redlands City Council has heretofore determined that it will be necessary to utilize the provisions of The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 , a benefit assessment act, for Annexation No. 6 to Street Lighting District No. 1 to include CRA 648 and CUP 581 and in the future to assess benefiting properties in proportion to the benefits that the various properties will receive. - 9 - The benefits the properties will receive will be assessed as incre- ments of units of benefit (U.O.B. ) . CRA 648 and CUP 581, consist of various types of development having varying lot sizes. Since the street lights either have been or will be installed in accordance with customary spacing established by the City of Redlands there will be three assessment zones based upon street curb-to-curb width. It has been the City Council ' s direction in the past that no assessments should be levied on properties which have not had the on-site development completed. This approach will be followed in the preparation of the annual engineer's report, however, this annexation report will estimate what the assessments would be if the on-site development had been completed. Assessments proposed for individual lots within Street Lighting District No. 1 will be for benefit received and will be determined based upon the three following assessment zones. Zone 1. This will include all lots in Annexation No. 6 having frontage on streets with curb separation less than 401 . Zone 2 . This will include all lots in Annexation No. 6 having frontage on streets with curb separations greater than 40' and less than 641 . Zone 3 . This will include all lots in Annexation No. 6 having frontage on streets with curb separation 64 ' or more. Each of these three assessment zones will have assessments levied in Units of Benefit which is defined as increments of 100' frontage on public streets, rights-of-way or easements. The frontage length and the corresponding units of benefit are as follows: FRONTAGE LENGTH U.O.B. less than 199' 1 200' to 299' 2 300' to 399' 3 and so forth Using the currently approved LS-2 lighting schedule from the Southern California Edison Company, the unit of benefit (U.O. B. ) assessments for the three zones are calculated as follows: Zone 1. 100 watt high pressure sodium vapor luminaire has a monthly billing rate from the Southern California Edison Company of $4 . 04 . Since the spacing will be 240'+15' a spacing of 250' will be used in the calculation. $4 . 04 x 12 x 100' _ $9.70 per U.O.B. 500 U.O.B. 10 - Zone 2 . 150 watt high pressure sodium vapor luminaire has a monthly billing rate from the Southern California Edison Company of $5. 59 . Since the spacing will be 265'+15' a spacing of 250' will be used in the calculation. $5 . 59 x 12 x 100' = $13 . 42 per U.O.B. 500 U.O. B. Zone 3 . 150 watt high pressure sodium vapor luminaire has a monthly billing rate from the Southern California Edison Company of $5 . 59 . Since the spacing will be 215'+15' a spacing of 230' will be used in the calculation. $5. 59 x 12 x 100' = $14 . 58 per U.O.B. 460 U.O.B. The administrative and engineering casts will be estimated using data in the 1992-93 Engineer's Report. These are $11. 52 per U.O. B. for administrative and $11 . 83 for engineering. SECTION 9 - CALCULATION OF UNIT OF BENEFIT AND INCIDENTAL COSTS The following calculations presume the on--site development has been completed and include the estimated costs of energy, administration and engineering: Annexation No. 6 - A (CRA 648) This is primarily in Zone 3 and will have 2 units of benefit as- sessment. The estimated costs and proposed assessment are as follows: Estimated Assessment 1993-94 Unit of Benefit 9 @ $14 . 58 $131. 22 Incidental Expenses Administrative 103 . 58 Engineering 106. 47 TOTAL $341. 37 -- 11 - Annexation No. 6 - B (CUP 581) This is primarily in Zone 1 and will have 2 units of benefit assessment. The estimated costs and proposed assessment are as follows: Estimated Assessment 1993--94 Unit of Benefit 2 @ $9 . 70 $ 19. 40 Incidental Expenses Administrative 23. 04 Engineering 23 . 66 TOTAL $ 66. 10 SECTION 10 - ESTIMATED ASSESSMENT'S FOR 1993-94 FISCAL YEAR The following calculations presume the on-site development has been completed and include the estimated cost of energy, administration and engineering: Annexation 5 - A (CRA 648) The one lot in Annexation 6 - A will receive the entire benefit assessment. A = Assessment C = Cost of S. C.E. Unit of Benefit and Incidental Expenses N = Number of Units of Benefit in Annexation 6 - A NA = C A = $341. 37 Annexation 6 - B (CUP 581) The one lot in Annexation 6 - B will receive the entire benefit assessment. A = Assessment C = Cost of S .C.E. Unit of Benefit and Incidental Expenses N = Number of Units of Benefit in Annexation 6 -- B NA = C A = $66 . 10 12 - The City Council will hold a public hearing in June , 1993 , to consider confirming, or modifying and confirming, the foregoing assessments for the 1993-94 Fiscal Year for Street Lighting District No. 1. These assessments, if confirmed, will be trans- mitted to the San Bernardino County Auditor and collected along with taxes paid by property owners as is required by The Land- scaping and Lighting Act of 1972 .
