INTRODUCTION
ENGINEER'S REPORT
CONTRA COSTA COUNTY
COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPING DISTRICT(LL-2)
FISCAL YEAR 2015-16
To ensure the proper flow of funds for the ongoing operation, maintenance and servicing of
specific improvements within the boundaries of Contra Costa County, the Board of Supervisors,
through the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, approved the formation of Countywide
Landscaping District (LL-2) or "District". Improvements that may be constructed, operated,
maintained and serviced by the District include:
Landscaping, irrigation, lighting (not street lighting, except in special cases), park and
recreational facilities, including but not limited to lights, playground equipment,play courts,
public restrooms,and associated appurtenant facilities.
Generally developers, as a part of their conditions permitting the developer to construct new
housing or commercial/industrial developments, construct these aforementioned public
improvements. However, the ongoing operation and maintenance of these various
improvements are financed through the District. The District is composed of"Benefit Zones" to
ensure that the operation and maintenance of the improvements are specifically paid for by
those property owners who directly benefit from the improvements.
As required by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, the annual Engineer's Report must be
reviewed by the Board of Supervisors each year and includes: (1) a description by benefit zone of
the improvements to be operated, maintained and serviced by the District, (2) an estimated
budget by benefit zone for the District, and(3) a listing of the proposed assessments to be levied
upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District.
The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors will hold a Public Hearing,June 16, 2015, on the
District to provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard. At the conclusion of
the Public Hearing, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors may adopt a resolution
confirming the levy of assessments as originally proposed or modified. Following the adoption
of this resolution, the final Assessor's roll will be prepared and filed with the County Auditor's
office to be included on the Fiscal Year 2015-16 tax roll.
Payment of the assessment for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the same time
as payments are made for property taxes. All funds collected through the assessment must be
placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated within this report.

ESTIMATE OF COST
The 1972 Act provides that the total cost of construction, operation, maintenance and servicing
of the public landscaping, irrigation, lighting (not street lighting except in special cases) and
park facilities can be recovered by the District. Incidental expenses including administration of
the District, engineering fees, legal fees and all other costs associated with the construction,
operation and maintenance and servicing of the District can also be included.
Five (5) Zones will have negative fund balances at the end of Fiscal Year 2015-16. In an effort to
reduce the negative balances each year, there may be a temporary reduction of services in those
areas of the County. Eventually these Zone balances will not be negative and will begin to build
reserves for incidental costs and improvements within the Zone.
The estimated Fiscal Year 2015-16 expenditures and assessment revenue for the proposed
District facilities have been provided by the County and are summarized on the following page:

A detailed"Special Districts Worksheet"for each Zone is shown in Appendix"A"of this Report.
The worksheets provide actual revenues and estimated expenditure details for Fiscal Year 2014-
15 and proposed revenue and expenditure details for Fiscal Year 2015-16.
Public playground safety and accessibility standards are mandated by two legal requirements.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 became effective in 1992 and required all
public facilities (including playgrounds) be free of architectural barriers to access by January 1,
1995. Secondly, California Playground Safety Regulations R-39-97, mandated compliance with
federal playground safety standards by the year 2000. This law requires that all playground
equipment areas accessible to the public be audited/inspected for safety. These standards are
established by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) in their document
"Standard Consumer Safety Performance Specification for Playground Equipment for Public
Use", and by the federal Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) in their document

Contra Costa County SECTION III
Countywide Landscaping District(LL-2)FY2015-I6 PART B
"Public Playground Handbook for Safety". Landscape and lighting zones that have existing
playground equipment that does not meet these federal and state guidelines must either retrofit
or replace that equipment.
The 1972 Act requires that a special fund be set up for the revenues and expenditures of each
Zone. Funds raised by the assessments shall only be used for the purpose as stated herein. A
contribution to each Zone by Contra Costa County may be made to reduce the assessments, as
the Board of Supervisors deems appropriate. Any balance remaining on July 1 at the end of the
fiscal year must be carried over to the next fiscal year.
