MAL ENGINEER'S REPORT TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FOR ESTABLISHING A STREET LIGHTING SERVICE CHARGE FOR FISCAL YEAR 1998-1999 INTR+OBUCTI OIC The Board of Supervisors,on October 31, 1978,instructed the Public Works Director to develop an alternate means to the ad valorem tax to fund street lighting in County service areas. This report recommends levying of a street lighting charges as provided in the County Service Area 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. FUNDING SOi7RC`F FOR STREET LIGHMG The two principal revenue sources for funding street lighting County Service Area L-100 are: 1. L-100 street lighting charges;and 2. Property taxes. RATIONAL FOR STREET 11GAMG Street lighting benefits all property owners within the County service area created to provide this service. The degree of benefit is determined by the use of the land of each individual parcel,the intensity of illumination provided,the number of pedestrians generated by the land use, and the enhanced security during hours of darkness. It is assumed that similar land uses will receive similar benefits. As an example, all single dwelling units are assumed to receive the same benefit and, further,the single dwelling unit establishes the basis for the street lighting service charge;hence, multiple dwelling units,containing 2,3 and 4,etc.,units,are assumed to receive ink benefits as the number of dwelling units increases. The factors used to establish street lighting service charges for the various land rises are shown on the attached Exhibit A. Exhibit A also lists the recommended street lighting units be class of property based on the intensity of street lighting,pedestrian and security factors,as well as the total units for each class. The service charges per unit are different for each County service area. The reason for this is that the number of street lights, intensity of lights, number of parcels are different for -County service area. The total funds required by each service area is the aggregate of the ' `e utility costs to energize the lights, the administrative overhead, and a percentage for unfbreseen contingencies. The basic unit rate for each services area is computed by dividing the total fund requirements by the total units in the service area. The street lighting service charge for a parcel is the basic unit rate times the number of units for the class of the parcel. Exhibit C shows the street lighting service charges and total revenue by County service area. Exhibit D shows every parcel number within.a County service area,the class of land use for each parcel number,and the basic street lighting services charge to be assessed.
