'moi ti��� LO IL) EXHIBITIC BALLOT NOTICE. Why did you receive this Ballot? When your development was approved, there was a requirement (condition of approval) to annex the parcel(s) into the County Service Area (CSA) L-100 Lighting District and for an annual assessment to be imposed on every parcel in your development to pay for the cost of maintaining the street lighting within the public right of way. The passage of Proposition 218 requires a vote on all new assessments and this is why you received this Ballot. How Much is the Assessment? The parcel(s) are assessed a Factor of 1, derived from the Land Use Code, based on base rate of$14.94 per Factor Unit. The total amount levied by the assessment, with regardsto this development is approximately $14.94 per year(1 factor units x $14.94) Why should you Vote? Your vote will decide if the assessment will be imposed. Only returned ballots will be counted. Will this Assessment Increase in the Future? The Benefit Zone does not intend to increase the assessment, and it cannot be increased without another election. What does the Assessment Fund Allow. The assessment allows the Benefit Zone provide and maintain street lighting within the public right of way. How was my Assessment Calculated? The total cost to provide and maintain; street lighting improvements is allocated to each property based on estimated special benefit received. Essentially, each single family home in the development is allocated the same assessment. An Engineer's Report detailing the method of assessment,budgets and assessments for each parcel is available for review at the Centra Costa County Department of Public Works,' 255 Glacier Drive, Martinez, CA,94553-.4897: Method of Voting Only returned ballots or written letters which identify the property and specify the property owners' support or opposition is counted: Mall your ballot in the self addressed postage paid envelope or deliver it in person to the Contra Costa'County Public Works Department, 255 Glacier Drive, Martinez, CA 94553 prior to September 28, 2005 or you may hand carry your ballot to the Public Hearing on November 1, 2005. Ballots received after the close of the Public Hearing cannot be counted.'Ballots are weighted by the amount of assessment that would be paid. If a majority of ballots returned, weighted by.their assessment, is opposed to the assessment, the assessment will not be imposed: Ballot Procedures This ballot is for the sole use of the property owner(s)of the parcel identified herein,>which is located within the CSA L-100 Lighting District.

'There'is only one ballot for each property even though the property may have more than one owner. If both owners of the property vote the same, the ballot counts as one vote. If both owners vete differently, one in support and one opposed, then the votes cancel each other out and the ballot will have a "zero"vote. Fabric Hearing The hearing will be held on November '1, 2005 at 9:30 a.m. in the Board of Supervisors Chambers, County Administration Building, 651. Pine Street, Martinez, CA 94553.

On July 26, 2005, as an attachment to Resolution No. 2005/471, the Board of Supervisors adopted the "Final Engineer's Report establishing a Street Lighting Service Charge for Fiscal Year 2005/2006". That report recommends levying of a street lighting charge as provided in the CSA Law, Government Code Sections 25210.1 and following, and in accordance with Ordinance No. 79-42, adopted by the Board of Supervisors on March 27, 1979. This addendum supplements that report by providing support for levying such an assessment on the parcels described in Exhibit A after they are annexed into CSA L-100. Total Assessment/Charge On CSA L-104 In the event that the proposed assessment is levied,the total amount chargeable to CSA L-100 will be 51494 multiplied by the number of Factor Units for that parcel(s). Assessrnet an Each Parcel Each parcel described by Exhibit A shall be assessed $14.94 per Factor Unit in.Fiscal Year 2006/2007. Methodology for Calculatirt-Street Lighting_�issessments' The "benefit received" is based on a sliding scale of 1'basic'unit charge for a single family.dwelling unit to as much as 8'basic unit charges'for a large apartment complex. The 'service charge for each CSA is based upon several factors such as (1) cost required to pay the Pacific Gas & Electric Company's current monthly electrical bill,:(2) the number and types of parcels within each 'Service Area; (3) a reserve fund for Administrative and Accounting services provided'by the County and, (4) unforeseen expenses such as electrical rate increases.' The assessment revenue is used to pay for the total costs of operating the street light system and those casts are apportioned among the various parcels in the CSA L-100 Lighting District.
