SUW.-TCT: Adopt Resolution No. 2002/ accepting the engineer's report and fixing February 11, 2003 at 9:30 a.m.
for a public hearing to consider levying assessments for a parcel in Subdivision 8456 to be annexed to
Countywide Landscaping District, Zone 35 and the re-assessment of Countywide Landscaping District
(LL-2)Zone 35.
The:Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County FINDS THAT:
1. The County is currently processing SD008456, Offer of Dedication for Pedestrian/Bicycle,Trail Easement
(the"Development")consisting of I parcel,more specifically described in Exhibit A.
2, In addition, due to the annexation of the Development's Pedestrian/Bicycle Trail Easement and additional
center median island landscaping facilities, the Board of Supervisors proposes to increase the maximum
assessment rate in Zone 35 to be effective for FY2003-04. Therefore,the parcels within the existing Zone 35
will need to comply with Proposition 218 with a ballot and notice process. A summary of the current and
proposed assessments is attached as Exhibit B.
3. On December 7, 2001 the applicant for the Development submitted a request to the Department of Public
Works for inclusion of the Development into Countywide Landscaping District (LL-2) Zone 35 to be
effective for FY2003-04. The County intends to initiate proceedings to annex the Development into
Countywide Landscaping District(LL-2)Zone 35 pursuant to that request.
4. Once the Development is annexed into Countywide Landscaping District (LL-2) Zone 35, the parcel(s)
within it will receive a Special Benefit over and above that received by the general public in the form of
landscape improvements as defined in Section 22503 of the Streets and Highways Code and the Landscaping
and Lighting Act of 1972.
5. In order to fund the Extended Services that will be provided to the parcels within the Development,it will be
necessary to levy a service charge (the "Assessment"). The service charge meets the requirements of an
"assessment" under Article XI11[D of the California Constitution because it is conferred to provide special
benefit,defined above,to the parcels within the Zone.
6. Based upon its review of the Engineer's Report,the Board finds that:
(a) The special benefit financed by the Assessment will directly benefit the parcels within the
development.
(b) The cost of the Assessment on each parcel within the Development is proportional to the benefits
that the special benefit will confer each parcel.

Methodolo€y for Calculatine Landscaping Assessments
In the event that the proposed assessment is levied, the total amount chargeable to
Countywide Landscape District (LL-2) Zone 35 will be $7,19997 per eligible acre plus

The "benefit received" is based on upon the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor
per acre. The landscaping assessment for this Zone is based upon several factors such
as (1) cost required to pay the utility bills; (2) the number and types of parcels within
this Zone; (3) a reserve fund for administrative and accounting services provided by the
County; (4) unforeseen expenses such as utility rate increases, and (5) maintenance
including replacement costs of the improvements. The assessment revenue is used to
pay for the total costs of operating the Landscape District and those costs are
apportioned among the various parcels in the Countywide Landscape District (LL-2)
Zone 35.

DATE: December 10, 2002
PACE: 2
IL Financial Impact:
There will be no financial impact to the County General Fund. All costs will be covered with revenue from the
LL-2 Zone 35.
M. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
The developer is required by Condition of Approval to install landscaping facilities in the public right-of-way
within boundaries of said District and annex to the County's Landscaping District, CWLSD (LL-2) Zone 35 for
maintenance and operation of those facilities. Due to the increased maintenance costs involved in maintaining the
Pedestrian/Bicycle Trial Easement and the inclusion of additional center median island landscaping,the Board of
Supervisors proposes to increase the maximum assessment rate in Zone 35. Proposition 218 provides that any
new assessment may not be approved if it is opposed by a majority of the property owners voting on the proposed
assessment. The Board Order and Resolution complies with the requirements for new assessments under
Proposition 218.
IV. Conseauences of Negative Action:
Funds will not be available to maintain the landscaping and other improvements therefore this project will not be
able to proceed.
