NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON CREATION OF THE PACfILCO PARKS AND BEAVIIFICATION ZOI ZO,INE 5 CouxTTy mE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT On September 10, 1991,the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 91/639 creating the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Council(MAC)to advise the Board on public service matters such as,fire,water,parks and recreation. The Pacheco MAC works closely with the Pacheco Town Council,representing a wide cross section of the community,and has long recognized the need for area wide landscape and park improvements. However,Pacheco has not had the funding source to implement a community beautification program. Over the years,the surrounding communities of Pleasant Hill,Concord,and Martinez have grown and developed with new landscaping and frontage improvements which have further underscored the need for landscape improvements in Pacheco. Now,the Pacheco MAC and Town Council needs the support of the community in the form of a small$30.00 per single family parcel,per year,assessment to make these needed landscape and park improvements. Community members and Public Works staff have developed a projects list of potential beautification sites along the Pacheco Boulevard,Marsh Drive,Aspen Drive and Center Avenue corridors. In addition to the area wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for linear park improvements along the Flood Control channel along Aspen Drive and numerous other projects in the years to come. Unlike general taxes,this assessment can only be used in the Pacheco community allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the Pacheco community. The estimated assessment proposed for your parcel for fiscal Year 1996-97 is shown on the attached insert of this notice. The typical annual assessment for a single family residence in the Zone is$30.00 for fiscal year 1996-97,and shall not exceed$30.00 without fin-ther notice of the required public hearings. The actual amount of the assessment is based on the property type and may vary from '/,to 3 times the single family rate. Mobile homes are assessed at 1/2 the single-family rate per mobile home space. The methodology for determining the annual assessment is found in the Engineer's Report on file at the Clerk of the Board's Office. The proposed assessments are based on an equal share of all parcels within the Zane. Said funds are restricted for use solely within Zone 5 for the purposes of which it was assessed. The Board of Supervisors will hold two public hearings: Tuesday,June 4, 1996 at 11:00 a.m.and Tuesday,June 11, 1996 at 11:00 am. in the Board Chambers County Administration Building located at 651 Pine Street,Martinez,California to consider the levy and collection of annual assessments for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1996,and ending June 30, 1997. At the time,date and place specified for the public hearings, the Board will hear and consider all comments and protests, if any,to the proposed assessments, and may, thereafter, levy the assessments. At any time prior to the conclusion of the June 11, 1996,public hearing,any property owner within the Zone may make written protest against the proposed assessments. The protests shall be in writing,shall state all grounds of objection,and shall contain a description sufficient to identify the property owned. Any such protests shall be mailed or delivered to antra_Co_sta_County Public WorkQ=mne Special Districts,25g Glacier Drive,Martinez.CAlifornia 94553. A majority protest by owners of more than 50%of the area of assessable lands within the Zone would cause the assessments to be abandoned.

Over the years,the R-9 Committee has partnered with the East Bay Regional Parks District for the renovation of the Senior Center at Kennedy Grove and the acquisition of the Hhll-Radach property and scenic area. More recently the Committee has partnered with the West Contra Costa Unified School District to provide$287,300 in Park Dedication Trust Fund fees for needed play field and new play equipment installation at six local schools servicing the El Sobrante community. Funding these worthwhile projects has nearly depleted all available cash and grant reserves. Now the R-9 Committee needs the support of the community in the form of small,$30.00 per single family parcel,per year assessment to continue improving local parks and begin the installation of landscaping along the Appian Way,San Pablo Darn Road and Valley View Road corridors. In addition to area-wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for continued park improvements at the local school sites,the creation of a linear park at the View Point property behind De Anza High School and numerous other beautification projects in the years to come. Unlike general taxes,this assessment can only be used in El Sobrante allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the valley.

' Supervisors, through the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, approved the formation of Countywide Landscaping District (LL-2). Improvements which 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 and public restroom, and associated appurtenant facilities. ' Generally these various public improvements are installed by developers as a part of the conditions permitting the developer to construct a new housing or commercial/industrial ' development. However, the ongoing maintenance and operation of the various improvements is provided by the County through benefit zones. Benefit zones are established to ensure the maintenance of the improvements are specifically paid for by those ' who directly benefit from the improvements. Special benefit zones have been established throughout the County to provide for the ongoing maintenance and operation of public improvements. In Fiscal Year 1996-97 various new benefit zones and tracts are proposed for ' annexation into the Countywide Landscaping District for maintenance and operation of newly installed improvements. Open space areas are excluded from maintenance within the Countywide Landscaping District. As required by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, the annual Engineer's Report is required to include: (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. Thus, included in this Engineer's Report for Fiscal Year 1996- 97 are the following: (1) a description of those improvements to be maintained by the District (2) a list of proposed assessments for Fiscal Year 1996-1997, and (3) the District's Proposed ' Budget for Fiscal Year 1996-1997. ' M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccnw l.bag 1 Section 1 - Introduction ' Public playground safety and accessibility standards are mandated by two legal requirements. In the first place, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 became effective in 1992 and requires all public facilities (including playgrounds) be free of architectural barriers to access by January 1, 1995. Secondly, S132733, State legislation mandates compliance with federal playground safety standards by the year 2000. Those standards are established by the ' American Society for Testing and Materials (ATSM) 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 "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 be retrofitted or replaced. In those zones where the equipment does not meet the state and ' federal guidelines, in Fiscal Year 1995-1996 (and beyond) funds will begin accruing to retrofit or replace the playground equipment in accordance with the guidelines mandated. Once the Board of Supervisors approves this Engineer's Report (either as submitted or as modified),the Board will hold a Public Hearing to provide an opportunity for any interested ' person to be heard. If the proposed assessments are to be increased in accordance with Section 22626 of the Streets and Highways Code, property owners must be noticed prior to the Public Hearing. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the Board of Supervisors may ' then adopt a resolution confirming the levy of assessments as originally proposed or as modified. Following the adoption of the Resolution by the Board of Supervisors, the final ' Assessor's roll (a listing of all parcels and their corresponding assessments) will be prepared and filed with the County Assessor's Office to be included on the 1996-97 fiscal year tax roll.

The description of each lot or parcel is part of the records of the Assessor of the County of . ' Contra Costa and these records are, by reference, made part of this Report. The total proposed assessment for the 1996-97 Fiscal Year is $1,607,757.00 r M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccnwl.bag 21 Section 2 - Report ' PART D METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT ' General Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by counties for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping, lighting and park and recreational facilities and all appurtenant facilities. Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This section states: ' "The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may bapportioned p Ye PP ' by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements. The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7, commencing with Section 5000) of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California. Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not ' a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public ' lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of- ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school property, other public property, designated open space, and public utilities. M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccnw l.bag 22 Section 2 - Report Benefit Well maintained landscaping, park, and recreational improvements provide an aesthetically ' pleasing environment throughout each benefit zone. These improvements provide shade, beautification, and according to authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. The park and recreational facilities also enable recreational activities to be organized in the respective ' benefit zones and add to the camaraderie of the neighborhoods and business areas. These positive attributes also increase property values throughout each benefit zone. Since the type, size and number of improvements vary in each benefit zone, it is imperative that the costs associated with operating, maintaining, and servicing the improvements in each benefit ' zone be assessed to only the parcels in that benefit zone. Assessment Methodology The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, and public park facilities are apportioned in accordance with the methodology that is consistent with standard assessment engineering practices. The method for spreading the costs to each parcel is based on the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor (Except Zone 7 assessments are assessed on potential floor area ratios for commercial/industrial parcels). Since the assessment is levied on the owners of properties as shown on the tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be spread by parcel, not considering land use, this would not be equitable, because a single-family parcel would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the number of EDUs associated with each particular parcel. The single family residential parcel has been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of assessments and is defined as one (1) Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Commercial and industrial parcels benefit similarly to residential parcels because of increased property values and the ability to have their workers and patrons use the park and recreational facilities. Commercial and industrial parcels are assessed based on their acreage because larger parcels have the ability to generate larger pedestrian flows. The methodology used to assign EDU's to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they receive relative to the single family residential parcel. M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccnwl.bag 23 Section 2 - Report Developed Single Family Residential. The developed single family parcel has been selected as the basic unit for calculation of the benefit assessments. This basic unit shall be called an Equivalent Dwelling Unit(EDU). Parcels designated as developed single family residential uses per the Contra Costa County land use code are assessed one (1.00) EDU. rDeveloped Multiple Residential. The EDUs for land designated as developed multi-family uses which includes condominiums, mobile homes and apartments are assessed a factor of one-half(0.50) EDU per dwelling unit, e.g., a parcel with a 100-unit apartment would be assessed 50 EDUs. Based on data from representative cities in Northern California, the multiple family residential factor of 50 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of . ' relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with density per unit. Developed Commercial/Industrial,Recreational, Institutional and Other Miscellaneous Uses. Developed commercial and industrial properties include commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per the Contra Costa County land use codes. The parcels are assessed based upon the acreage of the parcel. In converting developed commercial/industrial properties to EDUs, the factor used was from the Contra Costa County's average single family lot residential lot size. The parcels will be assessed one (1.00) EDU for the first acre or any portion thereof, one (1.00) EDU/acre for each additional acre up to a maximum of three (3.00) EDUs (3.00 acres). The minimum number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.00) EDU. Vacant property is described as parcels with no improved structures. Property values increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and well maintained. ' Vacant Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant single family residential parcels will be assessed at 50% of the developed single family rate. The parcels which receive this rate are located in zones 9 and 16. Vacant Non-Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant non-single family residential will be assessed at a 50% of the developed commercial/industrial rate. These parcels include vacant multi-family residential, commercial/industrial, recreational, institutional and other miscellaneous parcels. These parcels will be assessed at 0.50 EDUs per acre or any portion thereof, with a minimum of 0.50 EDU per parcel and a maximum of 1.50 EDUs per parcel (3.00 acres). Incremental acreage greater than 3.00 acres is considered to be open space area and therefore receives no further assessment. M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccn-vv l.bag 24 Section 2 - Report Exempt. Parcels of land listed on the County Assessor's record with tax-exempt status, as well as public utilities will not be assessed. The EDU's on all parcels which are tax exempt will be calculated on the basis of similar land uses if these are improvements which appear on the unsecured roll. The EDU's for these improvements are included in the appropriate land use classification. Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all ' easements and rights-of-ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school property, other public property, designated open space, and ' public utilities. Zone Classification 1 As properties develop throu�ghout the county, they are annexed into the District. A specific zone may be created for these properties or they may be included within an existing benefit zone which is unique and distinguishable from other benefit zones located within the District. Each benefit zone is evaluated to determine which improvements are of a specific and direct ' benefit to the parcels in that benefit zone.

PACHECO PARKS 1 AND LANDSCAPE 1 BEAUTIFICATION ZONE 1 1 sEa 665- Zone OZone 5 Countywide Landscape District 1 1 Contra Costa County Public Works Department 1 March 1996 1 PACHECO PARKS AND LANDSCAPE ' BEAUTIFICATION ZONE Zone 5 Countywide Landscape District On September 10, 1991, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. ' 91/639 creating the Pacheco Municipal Advisory.Council (MAC) to advise the Bo-a.rd on public service matters such as, fire,water,parks and recreation. The Pacheco MAC works closely with the Pacheco Town Council, representing a wide cross section of the community, and has long recognized the need for area wide landscape and park improvements. However,Pacheco has not had the funding source to implement a community beautification program. iOver the years, the surrounding communities of Pleasant Hill, Concord, and Martinez have grown and developed with new landscaping and frontage improvements which have further underscored the need for landscape improvements in Pacheco. Now,the Pacheco MAC and Town Council needs the support of the community in the form of a small $30.00 per single family parcel, per year, assessment to make these needed landscape and park improvements. Community members and ' Public Works staff have developed a projects list of potential beautification sites along the Pacheco Boulevard, Marsh Drive, Aspen Drive and Center Avenue corridors. ' In addition to the area wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for linear park improvements along the Flood Control channel along Aspen Drive and numerous other projects in the years to come. y i Unlike general taxes, this assessment can only be used in the Pacheco community allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the Pacheco community. g:TngSvc\S pDist\Zn5 lntro.0 March 14,1996 ' CONTRA COSTA COUNTY COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1979-3 (LL-2) PACHECO AREA-ZONE 5 ENGINEER'S REPORT FISCAL YEAR 1996-1997 The undersigned respectfully submits the enclosed report as directed by the Board of Supervisors.

Michael Walford, Public Works Director,makes this Report as Engineer of Work for Assessment District No. 1979-3 (LL-2),Contra Costa County,California,as directed by the Board of Supervisors pursuant to Section 22623 of the Streets and Highways Code (Landscaping and Lighting Act of ' 1972). It is proposed to form a parks, landscape and recreational zone in the Pacheco area. When formed, this zone will be annexed, as Pacheco Area - Zone 5, to the Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). Purpose 1 There is a need for attractive public areas with well maintained landscaping, trails, and recreational/picnic facilities in the Pacheco area, and for overdue improvements within the Pacheco Avenue corridor. Well maintained landscaped public facilities will both enhance property values and improve the quality of life in the community. To ensure a consistent maintenance program for these services, and to prepare the studies as needed, the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Committee and Pacheco Town Council, in conjunction with the County, proposes to form the Pacheco Area - Zone 5 and annex it to the Countywide Landscape ' District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). The proposed zone will benefit all properties within the community. Based upon standard assessment engineering practices,the estimated cost of maintaining, servicing and improving the various facilities is to be proportionately distributed among all property owners within the Pacheco area. Funding Funding for the project will be provided by annexing the Pacheco Area to the Countywide Landscape District and levying special assessments for the maintenance of various facilities in the ' zone. The monies collected can onlv be used within the Pacheco Area. Expenditure of the funds outside the Pacheco Area would be prohibited. Funds not spent in a given year will be carried over into a subsequent year as a reserve fund. ' g:'EngSvcL7pDis1Zn5.13 March 14,1996 Scope of Work Maintenance of future public landscaping, recreational and other related facilities will be performed according to a fixed schedule to be provided to the Pacheco Municipal Advisoy Committee and Pacheco Town Council at some future date. Preparation of the necessary studies for the Pacheco Area and related facilities will be funded through this zone. Costs of these studies must be jointly ' approved by the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Committee and Pacheco Town Council and by Public Works, and may not exceed available reserve funds in the zone. tAdministration of the zone and the maintenance services will be provided by County forces. Proposed Boundaries The proposed zone shall include all the lands shown on the map designated,"Countywide Landscape ' District AD 1979-3 (LL-2), Pacheco Area- Zone 5, Assessment Diagram." Landscaping and Lighting Act It is proposed that the zone be annexed to AD 1979-3 (LL-2) under the Landscaping and Lighting ' Act of 1972. This Act provides for the levy and collection of assessment to cover the cost of maintaining, installing and servicing landscaping, parks, and recreational and other facilities. Who Will Be Assessed All residential and commercial properties within the proposed boundaries of the Pacheco Area - Zone 5, Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2) will be assessed. ' Uniform Assessment The proposed assessment is based upon a uniform apportionment of the estimated funding to the assessable residential and commercial parcels in the proposed zone. Assessment After the proposed annexation is approved, the Board of Supervisors will be required to adopt and approve an annual budget every year. This total budget will then be assessed on the properties ' within the zone and collections will be made with the annual tax bill.

The monies collected cannot be used outside the Pacheco - Zone 5. ' There are approximately 1,000 parcels in Pacheco. The unit assessment rate will be $30.00 for this zone. The method for spreading these ' assessments is as follows: single family residential are assessed one unit assessment rate per parcel, multi-family/mobile home units are assessed a factor of one-half the single family rate, and commercial/industrial parcels are assessed the single family rate per acre with a maximum assessment of three times the single family rate. $30-00 per single family residential parcel, per year $15.00 per multi-family residential parcel, per year $30.00 per acre for commercial/industrial, per year ' $30.00 minimum assessment and 0.00 maximum assessment for ( $9 ' commercial/industrial parcels) $15.00 per unit assessment for vacant single family residential ($15.00 minimum and $45.00 maximum for vacant non-single family residential) ' g.-EngSvcLSpDis11Zn5.i3 March 14,1996 Exhibit C CONTRA COSTA COUNTY COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT AssEssmiNT DISTRICT No. 1979-3 (LL-2) PACHEco AREA - ZONE 5 ASSESSMENT ROLL An Assessment Roll will be included as Exhibit C in the Final Engineer's Report. g:kEngSvckSpDisAZnS.a March 14,1946 r Exhibit D r CONTRA COSTA COUNTY rCou-,N7YwIDE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT ASSESSI IENT DISTRICT No. 1979-3 (LL-2) PACHEco AREA - ZONE 5 r General r o . Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by counties for the purpose of ' providing certain public improvements which include the construction, operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping, lighting and park and recreational facilities and all appurtenant facilities. Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied ' according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This section states: "The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be ' apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements. 1 . The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7, commencing with Section 5000) of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California. Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than .a "special tax." Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of-ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school property, other public property, designated open space, and public utilities. r 1 r 1 Benefit r Well maintained landscaping, ark, and recreational improvements provide an aesthetically P g P Y pleasing environment throughout each benefit zone. These improvements provide shade, rbeautification, and according to some authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. The park and recreational facilities also enable recreational activities to be organized in the ' respective zones and add to the camaraderie of the neighborhoods and business areas. These positive attributes also increase property values throughout each zone. Since the ' type, size and number of improvements vary in each zone, it is imperative that the costs associated with operating, maintaining, and servicing the improvements in each zone be assessed to only the parcels in that zone. rAssessment Methodology The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, and public park facilities are apportioned in accordance with the methodology that is consistent with ' standard assessment engineering practices. The method for spreading the costs to each parcel is based on the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor (Except Zone 7 assessment is on a potential floor area ratios for commercial industrial parcels). ' Since the assessment is levied on the owners of properties as shown on the tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be ' spread by parcel, not considering land use, this would not be equitable, because a single- family parcel would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial ' establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the number of EDUs associated with each particular parcel. The single family residential parcel has been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of assessments and is defined as one Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Commercial and industrial parcels benefit similarly to residential parcels because of increased property values and the ability to have their workers and patrons use the park and recreational facilities. Commercial and industrial parcels are assessed based on their acreage because larger parcels have the ability to generate larger pedestrian flows. The methodology used rto assign EDU's to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they receive relative to the single family residential parcel. 1 1 1 . r r r Developed Single Family Residential. The developed single family parcel has been rselected as the basic unit for calculation of the benefit assessments. This basic unit shall be called an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Parcels designated as developed single ' family residential uses per the Contra Costa County land use code are assessed one (1) EDU. Developed Multiple Residential. The EDUs for land designated as developed multi-family uses which includes condominiums, mobile homes and apartments are assessed a factor of one-half(0.5) EDU per dwelling unit, e.g., a parcel with a 100-unit apartment would be assessed 50 EDUs. Based on data from representative cities in Northern California, the multiple family residential factor of 50 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with population density per unit. ' Developed Commercial and Industrial. Developed commercial and industrial properties include commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per the Contra Costa County land use codes. The parcels are assessed based upon the acreage of ' the parcel. In converting developed commercial/industrial properties to EDUs, the factor used was from the Contra Costa County's average single family lot residential lot size. The parcels will be assessed one (1) EDU for the first acre or any portion thereof, one (1.0) 1 EDU/acre for each additional acre up to a maximum of three (3) EDUs (3 acres). The minimum number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.0) EDU. Vacant property is described as parcels with no improved structures. Property values increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and rwell maintained. Vacant Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant single family residential parcels will be assessed at 50% of the developed single family rate. The parcels which receive this rate are located in zones 9 and 16. Vacant Non-Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant non-single family residential will be assessed at a 5017o of the developed commercial/industrial rate. These parcels include vacant multi-family residential, commercial and industrial parcels. These parcels will be assessed at .50 EDUs per acre or any portion thereof, with a minimum of .50 EDU per parcel and a maximum of 1.50 EDUs per parcel (3 acres). Incremental acreage greater than 3 acres is considered to be open space area and therefore receive no further assessment. r r r Exempt. Parcels of land listed on the County Assessor's record with tax-exempt status, as well as public utilities will not be assessed. The EDU's on all parcels which are tax ' exempt will be calculated on the basis of similar land uses if these are improvements which appear on the unsecured roll. The EDU's for these improvements are included in the appropriate land use classification. 1 MIMO 10 2A >\ 1;li is �i &,04"M FIELD=,P=RZ CIS: ,.ICO BEAUTIFICATION AREAL o soo moo ;000r[Er "y conrx� cosr� roLti~n 4r-V °"�:-.�.- ZONE 5 � List of Projects ' LIST OF PROPOSED PROJECTS FOR PACHECO BEAUTIFICATION AREA ' BENEFIT ASSESSMENT DISTRICT(LL-2) 1. PACHECO BOULEVARD: There are five islands running north to south in the middle of Pacheco ' Boulevard. All of which need some kind of landscaping or maintenance. Water supply? 3951 C; current roadway paved area width is 80 feet; current roadway right of way area width is 100 feet; C&G from Second Avenue north to Muir Road. ' Bob says that irrigation facilities were removed from the medians, but feels sleeves should be in place. Not positive about water meters. ' 2. CAROLOS DRIVE: Just off Pacheco Boulevard. This island has a few shrubs that could be replaced with ground cover or other shrubbing. ' 3. ASPEN DRIVE ISLAND: Just north of Pacheco Boulevard/Grayson Creek over crossing. It would be nice to see a statue, or other focus point, here as it is the"Center of the Town." Maybe an old wagon or tractor representing the beginning years 1850's. ' Good ideas and they are covered by an LL-2, but sight distance must be enforced so as to not have any obscured vision of roadways for driving ' conditions. 4. ASPEN DRIVE CREEK SIDE AND ENTRANCE TO PACHECO BOULEVARD SOUTH: The creek side is a favorite spot for people to have lunch,watch birds and walk their dogs. Keeping this ' area clean would be a great benefit. New gravel would be a nice addition also. The right hand turn/entrance from Aspen Drive to Pacheco Boulevard would be a great spot to landscape with grass, ground cover or shrubbery. ' Road No. 3975K; current roadway paved area width is 22 feet; current right of way area width is 40 feet;future roadway paved area width will be ' 36 feet;future roadway right of way area width will be 52 feet. This is possible. We would work with the Flood Control District. 5. WEST SIDE SIDEWALK AREA PACHECO BOULEVARD: All this area does currently collect trash. It would be nice to plant something that would tie it into the Pacheco Manor housing development. This could be done. There is approximately 10 feet from the face of curb ' to within 6 feet offence. 6. DIRT AREAS ALONG NORTH SIDE OF CENTER AVENUE: Repaved or landscaped? Water ' supply? What can be done? Road maintenance would need to investigate for possibility of paving. g:\EngSvc\SpDist\Zn5 Lst.0 Page 1 March 14, 1116 ' 7. FLAME DRIVE: Between First Avenue and Second Avenue two grass/dirt areas opposite each other. Are they County easements or can they be landscaped? Road No. 3975S; current roadway paved area widths range between 30 and 40 feet; current roadway right of way area widths range between SO and 60 feet;future roadway paved area width will be 40 feet;future ' roadway right of way area width will be 50 feet: The area in question appears to be located in the paved area width of 30 feet with a right of way area of 5 0 feet. Road maintenance would need to investigate. ' 8. CHILPANCINGO PARKWAY/FIFTH AVENUEARONWOOD DRIVE: Pacheco's southern border. Island, can it be landscaped? Is there a water supply? Also, the areas north of ' Chilpancingo, i.e.Fifth Avenue/Ironwood Drive. Pathway, can it be landscaped? It would be nice to see some landscaping here. Road No. 3974; current roadway paved area width is 40 feet; current roadway right of way area width is 84 feet; C&G. Fifth Avenue has a current roadway paved area width of 12 feet, with a current right of way ' area width of 40 feet. Future roadway paved area width will be 32 feet; future roadway right of way area width will be SO feet. Landscaping of the pathway is a possibility. ' 9. UNDER HIGHWAY 680 OVERPASS: Eyesore. Any kind of landscaping,if possible. Keep clean. ' Center Avenue is maintained by Maintenance Division, but the idea of landscaping would need to be taken up with Caltrans. 10. MARSH DRIVE: What can be done along the east side of Marsh Drive along the creek from Center Avenue to Solano Drive? ' East side would be landscaped. Landscaping would include barb moss rock, irrigation facilities and plant material. 11. PACHECO BOULEVARD OVER CROSSING AT ASPEN DRIVE: Center island is separating and sinking at the bridge connection(concrete). It is breaking into pieces and needs some attention soon. Is this under road improvements? What can be done? ' Yes, this is under road improvements. 12. SECOND AVENUE AND CENTER AVENUE BRIDGE OVER CROSSINGS: Street sweeping? Graffiti problems-would this be covered under the Pacheco Beautification Areas? ' 13. CREEK SIDE BETWEEN CENTER AVENUE AND SECOND AVENUE: What can be done here? Is this County property? ' Grayson Creek belongs to the Flood Control District. Benches are a possibility. ' g:1Engsvc1.SpDist\Zn1 LSL13 Page 2 March 14, 1996 14. PACHECO BOULEVARD IN FRONT OF PUBLIC STORAGE BUSINESS: Can it be landscaped? No. There is no right of way here. Right of way ends at the face of curb. 15. MUIR ROAD AT PACHECO BOULEVARD: County easement? Can anything be done here? Dead trees here. Can they be removed? Who will pay for it? ' Yes, this is in the County right of way. The dead trees could be removed. Pacheco Beautification Areas LL-2 District would pay for it. - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MISCELLANEOUS QUESTIONS 1. Are we entitled to services in these areas covered under our road maintenance taxes or other taxes? We want to make sure that we are not being taxed twice or assessed twice. 2. Street poles and signal lights need painting and repair. What area does this fall under? Street lights need to be repainted at the intersection of Center Avenue and Pacheco Boulevard. ' 3. Street cleaning and trash removal. New trash receptacles at various locations and more frequent pick-up. What about getting a work alternative program to cleanup trash, mainly on Pacheco Boulevard through the downtown. Dead pine needles on Pacheco Boulevard,fire hazard and blow into surrounding neighborhoods. ' 4. We would like to see a list of existing/current landscape districts in Pacheco and a total annual dollar amount received to the County already in taxes. We would like to combine the existing landscape districts into the Pacheco Beautification Area and any remaining funds should go to the overall ' Pacheco project. The communities already paying taxes on a landscape district should some how be credited this amount and not have to pay the same Pacheco Beautification Area tax as other Pacheco residents who do not pay anything currently.The current landscape district tax payers could possibly be pro rated their portion or the Pacheco Beautification Area taxes. — — — — , The following are landscaping suggestions contributed by Keith March of the Pacheco Town Council. Pacheco Boulevard: There are approximately five islands from Second Avenue,south,to Highway 4. Each island has between 5 to 15 planters that are filled with brick. The bricks need to be reset. Different colors, designs (i.e. Todos Santos)? Bomite could be used in place of planters. Aspen Drive/Pacheco Boulevard Island: Currently,the island is fairly clean, lots of mulch, some Nut Grass (weeds), one large bush growing off to one side. Sidewalk on creek side could use more work. "Right-turn only"sign is a definite hazard and needs to be moved over. Weeds need to be eradicated before spring and mulch laid. ' Later on,complete make over. Island and right-turn lane area on to Pacheco Boulevard could look fabulous with a small amount of shrubbery or ground cover. Mulch for now- free. gAEngSvc\SpDist`2n5 Lst.G Page 3 ' March 14, 1996 Grayson Creek at Center Avenue and Second Avenue: Right now, need to be swept-badly. Graffiti could be painted over or washed off. In the future,just keep them swept. Fifth Avenue/Ironwood Drive: Currently,between the retaining wall and Fifth Avenue there is dirt,weeds, thorns, leaves, and rock(gravel). This area is an eyesore, and could cause flat tires. In the future landscaping phase,possibly have trees planted on the north side of the retaining wall(between the wall and sidewalk/bike path). Perhaps evergreens. e Shrubs planted on the south side of the retaining wall. Ivy that climbs along the wall would prevent delinquents from spaying wall with paint. Ivy, vines, etc., are not allowed in LL-2's. Large Moss Rock or sign saying"Welcome to Pacheco"or something to this effect Statue or piece of other art at the corner of Ironwood,Fifth,and Chilpancingo. Center island strip is actually okay. It just needs to be kept up. A few of the trees have died due to lack of 8 moisture. Mulch- free for now. gAEngSvcl.SpDist\Zn5 Lst.o Page 4 March 14, 1996 � Artl* cle .on the History � of Pacheco PACHECO In the days before any village existed at Pacheco, 125 feet.

The R-9 Advisory Committee, appointed to advise the Board of Supervisors on local parks and recreation matters, has long recognized a community-wide need for increased park, landscaping and recreation facilities for the El Sobrante valley. Over the years, the R-9 Committee has partnered with the East Bay Regional Parks District for the renovation of the Senior Center at Kennedy Grove and the acquisition of the Hill-Radach property and scenic area. More recently the Committee has partnered with the West Contra Costa Unified School District to provide $287,300 in Park Dedication Trust Fund fees for needed play field and new play equipment installation at six local schools servicing the El Sobrante community. Funding these worthwhile projects has nearly depleted all available cash and grant reserves. Now ' the R-9 Committee needs the support of the community in the form of a small, $30.00 per single family parcel, per year assessment to continue improving local parks and begin the installation of landscaping along the Appian Way, San Pablo Dam Road and Valley View Road corridors. In addition to area-wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for continued park improvements at the local school sites,the creation of a linear park at the View Point property behind De Anza High School and numerous other beautification projects in the years to come. ' Unlike general taxes this assessment can only be used in El Sobrante allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the valley.

Michael Walford,Public Works Director,makes this Report as Engineer of Work for Assessment District No. 1979-3 (LL-2),Contra Costa County,California,as directed by the Board of Supervisors pursuant to Section 22623 of the Streets and Highways Code (Landscaping and Lighting Act of ' 1972). It is proposed to form a parks, landscape and recreational zone in the El Sobrante area. When formed, this zone will be annexed, as El Sobrante Area - Zone 66, to the Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). Purpose There is a need for attractive public areas with well maintained landscaping, trails, and recreational/picnic facilities along Appian Way, San Pablo Dam Road, and Valley View Road; intersection corridors; and throughout the El Sobrante area, including overdue improvements to the ' County-owned park site behind DeAnza High School. Well maintained landscaped public facilities will both enhance property values and improve the quality of life in the El Sobrante community. ' To ensure a consistent maintenance program for these services, and to prepare the studies as needed, the El Sobrante County Service Area R-9A Advisory Committee, in conjunction with the County, proposes to form the El Sobrante Area-Zone 66 and annex it to the Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). ' Because the proposed zone will directly benefit all properties within the community,the estimated cost of maintaining, servicing and improving the various facilities is to be equally distributed among all property owners. ' Funding ' Funding for the project will be provided by annexing the El Sobrante Area to the Countywide Landscape District and levying special assessments for the maintenance of various facilities in the ' zone. The monies collected can only be used within the El Sobrante Area. Expenditure of the funds outside the El Sobrante Area would be prohibited. Funds not spent in a given year will be carried over into a subsequent year as a reserve fiord. ' SE:pe g:1EngSvcLSpDis71B017n66.13 March 11,1996 Scope of Work Maintenance of future public landscaping, recreational and other related facilities will be performed according to a fixed schedule to be provided to the El Sobrante R-9A Advisory Committee in coordination with the community. The scope of work may include, but is not limited to, the following project inventory worksheet. Preparation of the necessary studies for the El Sobrante Area and related facilities will be funded through this zone. Costs of these studies must be jointly approved by the El Sobrante R-9A Advisory Committee and by Public Works, and may not exceed ' available reserve funds in the zone. Administration of the zone and the maintenance services will be provided by County forces. ' Proposed Boundaries ' The proposed zone shall include all the lands shown on the map designated,"Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2), El Sobrante Area- Zone 66, Assessment Diagram." ' Landscaping_and Lighting Act ' It is proposed that the zone be annexed to AD 1979-3 (LL-2) under the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. This Act provides for the levy and collection of assessment to cover the cost of maintaining, installing and servicing landscaping, parks, and recreational and other facilities. ' Who Will Be Assessed ' All residential and commercial properties within the proposed boundaries of the El Sobrante Area- Zone 66, Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2) will be assessed. ' Uniform Assessment ' The proposed assessment is based upon a uniform apportionment of the estimated funding to the assessable residential and commercial parcels in the proposed zone. ' Assessment After the proposed annexation is approved,the Board of Supervisors will be required to adopt and approve an annual budget every year. This total budget will then be assessed on the properties within the zone and collections will be made with the annual tax bill. t SE.-Pe g:IEngSvc1SpDisrIBOIZn66.13 March 11,1996 ' EL SOBRANTE AREA LANDSCAPE AND PARK DISTRICT ' PROPOSED PROJECT INVENTORY WORKSHEET 1.

COSTA COUNTY COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT 1 ASSESSMENT DISTRICT No. 1979-3 (LL-2) EL SOBRANTE AREA - ZoNE 66 ' FISCAL,YEAR 1996-1997 General Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code, the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, permits the establishment of assessment districts by counties for the purpose of providing certain public improvements which include the construction, operation, maintenance and servicing of landscaping, lighting and park and recreational facilities and all appurtenant facilities. Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied ' according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This section states: "The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by ' each such lot or parcel from the improvements. The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall ' be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7, commencing with Section 5000) of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California. rBecause assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of-ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all rpublic school property, other public property, designated open space, and public utilities. Benefit ' Well maintained landscaping, park, and recreational improvements provide an aesthetically rlcally ' pleasing environment throughout each benefit zone. These improvements provide shade, beautification, and according to some authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. The park and recreational facilities also enable recreational activities to be organized in the respective zones and add to the camaraderie of the neighborhoods and business areas. These positive attributes also increase property values throughout each zone. Since the 1 type, size and number of improvements vary in each zone, it is imperative that the costs associated with operating, maintaining, and servicing the improvements in each zone be assessed to only the parcels in that zone. Assessment Methodology The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, and public park facilities are apportioned in accordance with the methodology that is consistent with standard assessment engineering practices. The method for spreading the costs to each parcel is based on the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor (Except Zone 7 assessment is on a potential floor area ratios for commercial industrial parcels). Since the assessment is levied on the owners of properties as shown on the tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be rspread by parcel, not considering land use, this would not be equitable, because a single- family parcel would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the number of EDUs associated with each particular parcel. The single family residential parcel has been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of assessments and is defined as one Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Commercial and industrial parcels benefit similarly to residential parcels because of increased property values and the ability to have their workers and patrons use the park and recreational facilities. Commercial and industrial parcels are assessed based on their acreage because larger parcels have the ability to generate larger pedestrian flows. The methodology used to assign EDU's to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they receive relative to the single family residential parcel. 1 Developed Single Family Residential. The developed single family parcel has been selected as the basic unit for calculation of the benefit assessments. This basic unit shall be called an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Parcels designated as developed single family residential uses per the Contra Costa County land use code are assessed one (1) EDU. ' Developed Multiple Residential. The EDUs for land designated as developed multi-family uses which includes condominiums, mobile homes and apartments are assessed a factor of one-half(0.5) EDU per dwelling unit, e.g., a parcel with a 100-unit apartment would be assessed 50 EDUs. Based on data from representative cities in Northern California, the multiple family residential factor of 50 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combinAtion with population density per unit. Developed Commercial and Industrial. Developed commercial and industrial properties include commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per the Contra Costa County land use codes. The parcels are assessed based upon the acreage of ' the parcel. In converting developed commercial/industrial properties to EDUs, the factor used was from the Contra Costa County's average single family lot residential lot size. The parcels will be assessed one (1) EDU for the first acre or any portion thereof, one (1.0) EDU/acre for each additional acre up to a maximum of three (3) EDUs (3 acres). The minimum number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.0) EDU. fVacant property is described as parcels with no improved structures. Property values increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and well maintained. Vacant Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant single family residential parcels will be assessed at 50% of the developed single family rate. The parcels which receive this rate are located in zones 9 and 16. Vacant Non-Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant non-single family residential will be assessed at a 50% of the developed commercial/industrial rate. These parcels include vacant multi-family residential, commercial and industrial parcels. These parcels will be assessed at .50 EDUs per acre or any portion thereof, with a minimum of .50 EDU per parcel and a maximum of 1.50 EDUs per parcel (3 acres). Incremental acreage greater than 3 acres is considered to be open space area and therefore receive no further assessment. 1 1 1 Exempt. Parcels of land listed on the County Assessors record with tax-exempt status, ' as well as public utilities will not be assessed. The EDU's on all parcels which are tax exempt will be calculated on the basis of similar land uses if these are improvements which appear on the unsecured roll. The EDU's for these improvements are included in the ' appropriate land use classification. 1 - 1 1 i 1 i 1 1 1 1 i 1 •6r '��dj�' � o r " G...w w'For' a ,I c t? � a..,r �,.�s:-;i t ,/.• •OD" 'E, ;,tr^ o �' l re U Twr•.w. ��„�o'r•,€- H .�. v �" l ''' ••i C Yrs•.' ^" f �(`' P � _ .- ,r4 ,r.tt' `.��j, 'b�t,� J ��;z-��2!�S .-ry_'\I�` Ayi�a• syr e�t• i } '` `• 1 r13 1• .i.

' 153 � Grizzly Grove : � Our Park and Its Needs � by Sally Parker Sally Parker Grizzly Grove Our Park, and Its Needs ' Grizzly Grove is a hill of 90 redwood trees at EI Sobrante School. The park is the only publicly available park in central El Sobrante. The park could become a ' spectacular gathering place with shade, flowers, and abundant.parking. The grove was planted as a shady park. to time it can be used as an outdoor ' amphitheater. There are two circles oFtrees at the top of the hill,trees for shade orilhe slope, and trees planted as a backdrop for a stage at the bottom of the hill. The hill, whcn used as a theater,could comfortably seat 800 people in blankets on the grass. The two ' circles of trees at the top of the hill can be use to enclose a playground,storytelling circle,campsite or park as students, parents, and F.1 Sobrante residents decide. The circles will make excellent sites for Halloween parties or Easter egg hunts. With some ' planning, the site could be rented for profit as a setting for wedding. In 1992 we planted a redwood grove on unused land at El Sobrante School. The ' trees were tube sized scodlings donated by Georgia PaciCtc Redwoc)d Company. Today there are 90 trees small trees from 1,5 feet to 7.5 feet tall with an average of about 3.5 rt:et. The park was immediately popular with students. Fach student planted a seedling in the ground or in a gallon container. The West County Times photographed our park whcn we first planted seedlings and later when we held a contest to name the grove. Ms. Habel's cla-ss won the contest with the name of "Grizzly Grove". The enclosures at the top of the hill are "Jurassic Bark" and "Whisper Woods". ' in the fall of 1993 we installed an irrigation system with money raised from the Parents' Support Group(5350). Since planting the trees in 1992 parent volunteers have ' done all the labor to maintain the trees. Before Grizzly Grove the school's district maintenance workers mowed the hill several times a year with a tractor sized mower. For the first two years when the seedlings were too small to be seen from the tractor, ' parents, mostly Martin Homcc, mowed the entire hill with iaevn mowers. 'Today the district has agreed to mow between trees,but parents still must mow"doughnuts" around the trees, where a tractor sized mower can't reach. t direct students to put mulch around the trees to kill competing weeds,and I turn the irrigation system on and off during the summer. What We Need Gri�.z1y Grove will continue to need some maintenance beyond what the school district will provide. The school district's gardeners mow the hill with the tractor sired mower,but they can't mow around each tree. Eventually redwood trees defeat any grass and weeds underrimth them. In time, the parent or gardener with the push mower will have less of a task to mow around each tree. Vere will be a need to turn the irrigation ' system on and off and a continuing need for someone to make certain the irrigation system is in good repair. ' Parent volunteers estimated that someone will have to mow around the trees four to six times a year depending on the rains. This takes about three to five hours each time. Turning on and off the irrigation system takes about ten minutes of labor once a week. I ' weeded the trees by laying down mulch,but weeding can be done by spraying Roundup. I estimate this could take five to ten hours a year. ' We may want to plant vines along the fence surrounding Grizzly Grove. We will need to trim back one of the neighbor's plum trees and some blackberry bushes that have grown onto school property. As the redwoods mature we could plant fuscia bushes under ' the trees. These will need some weeding. There is a primary and continuing need to keep the park clean and keep the ' school grounds free oflittcr. The school needs publicly available Tarbage cans and someone to remove litter and broken glass. ' The Possibilities With some maintenance GriMy Grove could easily become an attractive shady ' park. It could become a place that could be rented for as a site for gatherings. � Letter to the � Board of Supervisors � by Rick Gulledge w ' Rick Gulledge tChair Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors As both residential property and business owners in unincorporated El Sobrante we ' support a $35 per year assessment on our homes and are willing to pay a proportionate increase in rent because of a similar commercial property assessment for the creation of an El Sobrante Landscape and Recreational Special District. ' We understand that allocation of the collected funds will have to be approved by our El Sobrante Recreation Committee(CSA-R9) and that these funds can be spent only toward creating landscaping, lighting, park, and recreational projects and only oil projects ' within the El Sobrante Arca as defined by County law. Of special interest to us is the promotion of the San Pablo Creek and its watershed ' as a source of community identity and pride and the expenditure of such funds to create an Educational Access Site for schoolchildren and the General Public to further the awareness of the necessity of protecting the ecological balance and.unimpeded natural ' flow of the Creek. This site should be located at the El Sobrante Library and the necessary efforts should be accomplished to meet the needs of adjacent residents. t 1 i 1 ' PRELIMINARY ENGINEER'S REPORT ' For CONTRA COSTA COUNTY COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPING DISTRICT (LL-2) FISCAL YEAR 1996-97 Prepared for.

' Section 1 - Introduction ' SECTION I INTRODUCTION ENGINEER'S REPORT ' COUNTY OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPING DISTRICT (LL-2) FISCAL YEAR 1996-97 To insure the proper flow of funds for the ongoing operation, maintenance and servicing of ' specific improvements within the boundaries of the County of Contra Costa, the Board of Supervisors,through the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, approved the formation of Countywide Landscaping District (LL-2). Improvements which 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 and public restroom, and associated appurtenant facilities. ' Generally these various public improvements are installed by developers as a part of the conditions permitting the developer to construct a new housing or commercial/industrial ' development. However, the ongoing maintenance and operation of the various improvements is provided by the County through benefit zones. Benefit zones are established to ensure the maintenance of the improvements are specifically paid for by those ' who directly benefit from the improvements. Special benefit zones have been established throughout the County to provide for the ongoing maintenance and operation of public improvements. In Fiscal Year 1996-97 various new benefit zones and tracts are proposed for annexation into the Countywide Landscaping District for maintenance and operation of newly installed improvements. Open space areas are excluded from maintenance within the ' Countywide Landscaping District. As required by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, the annual Engineer's Report is ' required to include: (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. Thus, included in this Engineer's Report for Fiscal Year 1996- 97 are the following: (1) a description of those improvements to be maintained by the District ' (2) a list of proposed assessments for Fiscal Year 1996-1997, and (3) the District's Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 1996-1997.

Section 1 - Introduction Public playground safety and accessibility standards are mandated by two legal requirements. In the first place, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 became effective in 1992 and requires all public facilities (including playgrounds) be free of architectural barriers to access by January 1, 1995. Secondly, SB2733, State legislation mandates compliance with federal playground safety standards by the year 2000. Those standards are established by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ATSM) 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 "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 be retrofitted or replaced. In those zones where the equipment does not meet the state and federal guidelines, in Fiscal Year 1995-1996 (and beyond) funds will begin accruing to retrofit or replace the playground equipment in accordance with the guidelines mandated. Once the Board of Supervisors approves this Engineer's Report (either as submitted or as modified),the Board will hold a Public Hearing to provide an opportunity for any interested t person to be heard. If the proposed assessments are to be increased in accordance with Section 22626 of the Streets and Highways Code, property owners must be noticed prior to the Public Hearing. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the Board of Supervisors may ' then adopt a resolution confirming the levy of assessments as originally proposed or as modified. Following the adoption of the Resolution by the Board of Supervisors, the final ' Assessor's roll (a listing of all parcels and their corresponding assessments) will be prepared and filed with the County Assessor's Office to be included on the 1996-97 fiscal year tax roll.

The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7, commencing with Section 5000) of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California. ' Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. ' The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various ' areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." ' Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of- ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school ' property, other public property, designated open space, and public utilities. M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccnw I.bag 22 ' WBerryman & Henigar L"- 2S/Consul/ants./nc. Heniga/BRay.Inc. ' Section 2 - Report ' Benefit ' Well maintained landscaping, park, and recreational improvements provide an aesthetically pleasing environment throughout each benefit zone. These improvements provide shade, beautification, and according to authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. The park ' and recreational facilities also enable recreational activities to be organized in the respective benefit zones and add to the camaraderie of the neighborhoods and business areas. ' These positive attributes also increase property values throughout each benefit zone. Since the type, size and number of improvements vary in each benefit zone, it is imperative that the ' costs associated with operating, maintaining, and servicing the improvements in each benefit zone be assessed to only the parcels in that benefit zone. ' Assessment Methodology The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, and public park ' facilities are apportioned in accordance with the methodology that is consistent with standard assessment engineering practices. The method for spreading the costs to each parcel is based on the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor (Except Zone 7 assessments are assessed on ' potential floor area ratios for commercial/industrial parcels). ' Since the assessment is levied on the owners of properties as shown on the tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be spread by parcel,not considering land use,this would not be equitable, because a single-family parcel ' would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the number of EDUs associated with each particular parcel. The single family residential parcel has been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of g Y ' assessments and is defined as one (1) Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Commercial and industrial parcels benefit similarly to residential parcels because of increased property values and the ability to have their workers and patrons use the park and recreational facilities. ' Commercial and industrial parcels are assessed based on their acreage because larger parcels have the ability to generate larger pedestrian flows. The methodology used to assign EDU's to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they receive relative to the single family residential parcel. M:\\projects\contra96\wp6.0\ccnwl.bag 23 ' MBerryman & Henigar "' 65/COn>u/.'�„;s.Inc Henigai&Ray.Inc. ' Section 2 - Report Developed Single Family Residential. The developed single family parcel has been selected ' as the basic unit for calculation of the benefit assessments. This basic unit shall be called an Equivalent Dwelling Unit(EDU). Parcels designated as developed single family residential uses per the Contra Costa County land use code are assessed one (1.00) EDU. ' Developed Multiple Residential. The EDUs for land designated as developed multi-family uses which includes condominiums, mobile homes and apartments are assessed a factor of ' one-half(0.50) EDU per dwelling unit, e.g., a parcel with a 100-unit apartment would be assessed 50 EDUs. Based on data from representative cities in Northern California, the multiple family residential factor of 50 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with density per unit. ' Developed Commercial/Industrial,Recreational, Institutional and Other Miscellaneous Uses. Developed commercial and industrial properties include commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per the Contra Costa County land use codes. The parcels are assessed based upon the acreage of the parcel. In converting developed commercial/industrial properties to EDUs, the factor used was from the Contra Costa County's average single family lot residential lot size. The parcels will be assessed one (1.00) EDU for the first acre or any portion thereof, one (1.00) EDU/acre for each additional acre ' up to a maximum of three (3.00) EDUs (3.00 acres). The minimum number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.00) EDU. ' Vacant property is described as parcels with no improved structures. Property values increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and well maintained. Vacant Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant single family residential ' parcels will be assessed at 50% of the developed single family rate. The parcels which receive this rate are located in zones 9 and 16. ' Vacant Non-Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant non-single family residential will be assessed at a 50% of the developed commercial/industrial rate. These parcels include vacant multi-family residential, commercial/industrial, recreational, ' institutional and other miscellaneous parcels. These parcels will be assessed at 0.50 EDUs per acre or any portion thereof, with a minimum of 0.50 EDU per parcel and a maximum of ' 1.50 EDUs per parcel (3.00 acres). Incremental acreage greater than 3.00 acres is considered to be open space area and therefore receives no further assessment.

Parcels of land listed on the County Assessor's record with tax-exempt status, as well as public utilities will not be assessed. The EDU's on all parcels which are tax exempt ' will be calculated on the basis of similar land uses if these are improvements which appear on the unsecured roll. The EDU's for these improvements are included in the appropriate land use classification. Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, ' public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of-ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries,greenbelts and parkways and all public school property, other public property, designated open space, and public ' utilities. ' Zone Classification As properties develop throughout the county, they are annexed into the District. A specific ' zone may be created for these properties or they may be included within an existing benefit zone which is unique and distinguishable from other benefit zones located within the District. Each benefit zone is evaluated to determine which improvements are of a specific and direct ' benefit to the parcels in that benefit zone. Once the improvements have been identified a method of spreading those costs to the benefiting parcels is developed.

The Pacheco MAC works closely with the Pacheco Town Council, representing a wide cross section of the community, and has long recognized the need for area wide landscape and park improvements. However,Pacheco has not had the funding source to implement a community beautification program. ' Over the ears the surrounding communities of Pleasant Hill Concord and Martinez have own Y g � �' ' and developed with new landscaping and frontage improvements which have further underscored the need for landscape improvements in Pacheco. Now,the Pacheco MAC and Town Council needs the support of the community in the form of a small $30.00 per single family parcel, per year, assessment to make these needed landscape and park improvements. Community members and Public Works staff have developed a projects list of potential beautification sites along the Pacheco Boulevard, Marsh Drive, Aspen Drive and Center Avenue corridors. ' In addition to the area wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for linear park improvements along the Flood Control channel along Aspen Drive and numerous other projects ' in the years to come. Unlike general taxes,this assessment can only be used in the Pacheco community allowing all the ' monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the Pacheco community. gAEngSvc\SpDist\Zn5 Intro.t3 March 1A,1996 1 ' CONTRA COSTA COUNTY COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT ' ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1979-3(LL-2) ' PACHECO AREA- ZoNE 5 ENGINEER'S REPORT FISCAL YEAR 1996-1997 The undersigned respectfully submits the enclosed report as directed by the Board of Supervisors.

Michael Walford, Public Works Director,makes this Report as Engineer of Work for Assessment District No. 1979-3 (LL-2),Contra Costa County,California,as directed by the Board of Supervisors ' pursuant to Section 22623 of the Streets and Highways Code (Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972). ' It is proposed to form a parks, landscape and recreational zone in the Pacheco area. When formed, this zone will be annexed, as Pacheco Area - Zone 5, to the Countywide Landscape District AD ' 1979-3 (LL-2). Purpose ' There is a need for attractive public areas with well maintained landscaping, trails, and recreational/picnic facilities in the Pacheco area, and for overdue improvements within the Pacheco ' Avenue corridor. Well maintained landscaped public facilities will both enhance property values and improve the quality of life in the community. ' To ensure a consistent maintenance program for these services, and to prepare the studies as needed, the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Committee and Pacheco Town Council, in conjunction with the County, proposes to form the Pacheco Area - Zone 5 and annex it to the Countywide Landscape ' District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). The proposed zone will benefit all properties within the community. Based upon standard assessment engineering practices, the estimated cost of maintaining, servicing and improving the various facilities is to be proportionately distributed among all property owners within the Pacheco ' area. Funding ' Funding for the project will be provided by annexing the Pacheco Area to the Countywide Landscape District and levying special assessments for the maintenance of various facilities in the ' zone. The monies collected can only be used within the Pacheco Area. Expenditure of the funds outside the Pacheco Area would be prohibited. Funds not spent in a given year will be carried over into a subsequent year as a reserve fund. ' g:IEn9Svc1SpDis11Zn5.t3 March 14,1996 ' Scone of Work ' Maintenance of future public landscaping,recreational and other related facilities will be performed according to a fixed schedule to be provided to the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Committee and Pacheco Town Council at some future date. Preparation of the necessary studies for the Pacheco ' Area and related facilities will be funded through this zone. Costs of these studies must be jointly approved by the Pacheco Municipal Advisory Committee and Pacheco Town Council and by Public ' Works, and may not exceed available reserve funds in the zone. Administration of the zone and the maintenance services will be provided by County forces. ' Proposed Boundaries ' The proposed zone shall include all the lands shown on the map designated,"Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2), Pacheco Area-Zone 5,Assessment Diagram." ' Landscaping and Lighting Act It is proposed that the zone be annexed to AD 1979-3 (LL-2) under the Landscaping and Lighting ' Act of 1972. This Act provides for the levy and collection of assessment to cover the cost of maintaining, installing and servicing landscaping,parks, and recreational and other facilities. ' Who Will Be Assessed ' All residential and commercial properties within the proposed boundaries of the Pacheco Area - Zone 5, Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2)will be assessed. ' Uniform Assessment The proposed assessment is based upon a uniform apportionment of the estimated funding to the ' assessable residential and commercial parcels in the proposed zone. ' Assessment After the proposed annexation is approved,the Board of Supervisors will be required to adopt and ' approve an annual budget every year. This total budget will then be assessed on the properties within the zone and collections will be made with the annual tax bill. 1 ' g.1EngSvd3pDistL7n5.t3 March 14,1996 ' Exhibit A ' CONTRA COSTA COUNTY COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPE DISTRICT ' ASSESSMENT DISTRICT No. 1979-3 (LL-2) ' PACHECO AREA - ZONE 5 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS ' AND ESTIMATE OF COSTS FISCAL YEAR 1996-97 ' Install and maintain public landscaping, irrigation system, recreational facilities, trails, and other related facilities along the Pacheco Area - Zone S and improve and maintain various median island, frontage and ' County Flood Control properties.

The method for spreading these assessments is as follows: single family residential are assessed one unit ' assessment rate per parcel,multi-family/mobile home units are assessed a factor of one-half the single family rate, and commercial/industrial parcels are assessed the single family rate per acre with a maximum assessment of three times the single family rate.

Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This section states: ' The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by ' each such lot or parcel from the improvements. The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall ' be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7, commencing with Section 5000) of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California. Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XHIA of the California Constitution. The Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the ' various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." ' Excepted from the assessment would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of-ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school property, other public property, designated open space, and public utilities. rBenefit ' Well maintained landscaping, park, and recreational improvements provide an aesthetically pleasing environment throughout each benefit zone. These improvements provide shade, beautification, and according to some authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. The park and recreational facilities also enable recreational activities to be organized in the respective zones and add to the camaraderie of the neighborhoods and business areas. These positive attributes also increase property values throughout each zone. Since the type, size and number of improvements vary in each zone, it is imperative that the costs associated with operating, maintaining, and servicing the improvements in each zone be assessed to only the parcels in that zone. _ Assessment Methodology The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, and public park ' facilities are apportioned in accordance with the methodology that is consistent with standard assessment engineering practices. The method for spreading the costs to each parcel is based on the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor (Except Zone 7 assessment is on a potential floor area ratios for commercial industrial parcels). Since the assessment is levied on the owners of properties as shown on the tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be spread by parcel, not considering land use, this would not be equitable, because a single- family parcel would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial ' establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the number of EDUs associated with each particular parcel. The single family residential parcel has been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of assessments and is defined as one Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Commercial and industrial parcels benefit similarly to residential parcels because of increased property values and the ability to have their workers and patrons use the park and recreational facilities. Commercial and industrial parcels are assessed based on their acreage because larger parcels have the ability to generate larger pedestrian flows. The methodology used to assign EDU's to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they receive relative to the single family residential parcel. r r Developed Single Family Residential. The developed single family parcel has been selected as the basic unit for calculation of the benefit assessments. This basic unit shall ' be called an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Parcels designated as developed single family residential uses per the Contra Costa County land use code are assessed one (1) EDU. ' Developed Multiple Residential. The EDUs for land designated as developed multi-family uses which includes condominiums, mobile homes and apartments are assessed a factor of ' one-half(0.5) EDU per dwelling unit, e.g., a parcel with a 100-unit apartment would be assessed 50 EDUs. Based on data from representative cities in Northern California, the multiple family residential factor of 50 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with population density per unit. Developed Commercial and Industrial. Developed commercial and industrial properties include commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per the ' Contra Costa County land use codes. The parcels are assessed based upon the acreage of the parcel. In converting developed commercial/industrial properties to EDUs, the factor used was from the Contra Costa County's average single family lot residential lot size. The ' parcels will be assessed one (1) EDU for the first acre or any portion thereof, one (1.0) EDU/acre for each additional acre up to a maximum of three (3) EDUs (3 acres). The minimum number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.0) EDU. ' Vacant property is described as parcels with no improved structures. Property' values increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and ' well maintained. Vacant Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant single family residential i parcels will be assessed at 50% of the developed single family rate. The parcels which receive this rate are located in zones 9 and 16. Vacant Non-Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant non-single family residential will be assessed at a 50% of the developed commercial/industrial rate. These ' parcels include vacant multi-family residential, commercial and industrial parcels. These parcels will be assessed at .50 EDUs per acre or any portion thereof, with a minimum of .50 EDU per parcel and a maximum of 1.50 EDUs per parcel (3 acres). Incremental ' acreage greater than 3 acres is considered to be open space area and therefore receive no further assessment. -- 1 1 ' Exempt. Parcels of land listed on the County Assessor's record with tax-exempt status, as well as public utilities will not be assessed. The EDU's on all parcels which are tax exempt will be calculated on the basis of similar land uses if these are improvements which appear on the unsecured roll. The EDU's for these improvements are included in the appropriate land use classification. 1 1 Wl MEN. \ \ 8 MM 90 ERIC- rom C7.

PACHECO BOULEVARD: There are five islands running north to south in the middle of Pacheco Boulevard. All of which need some kind of landscaping or maintenance. Water supply? ' 3951C; current roadway paved area width is 80 feet, current roadway right of way area width is 100 feet; C&G from Second Avenue north to Muir Road. ' Bob says that irrigation facilities were removed from the medians, but feels sleeves should be in place. Not positive about water meters. 2. CAROLOS DRIVE: Just off Pacheco Boulevard. This island has a few shrubs that could be replaced with ground cover or other shrubbing. ' 3. ASPEN DRIVE ISLAND: Just north of Pacheco Boulevard/Grayson Creek over crossing. It would be nice to see a statue, or other focus point,here as it is the"Center of the Town." Maybe an old wagon or tractor representing the beginning years 1850's. Good ideas and they are covered by an LL-2, but sight distance must be enforced so as to not have any obscured vision of roadways for driving conditions. 4. ASPEN DRIVE CREEK SIDE AND ENTRANCE TO PACHECO BOULEVARD SOUTH: The ' creek side is a favorite spot for people to have lunch,watch birds and walk their dogs. Keeping this area clean would be a great benefit. New gravel would be a nice addition also. The right hand turn/entrance from Aspen Drive to Pacheco Boulevard would be a great spot to landscape with grass, ' ground cover or shrubbery. Road No. 3975K; current roadway paved area width is 22 feet; current ' right of way area width is 40 feet;future roadway paved area width will be 36 feet;future roadway right of way area width will be 52 feet. ' This is possible. We would work with the Flood Control District. 5. WEST SIDE SIDEWALK AREA PACHECO BOULEVARD: All this area does currently collect ' trash. It would be nice to plant something that would tie it into the Pacheco Manor housing development. ' This could be done. There is approximately 10 feet from the face of curb to within 6 feet offence. ' 6. DIRT AREAS ALONG NORTH SIDE OF CENTER AVENUE: Repaved or landscaped? Water supply? What can be done? ' Road maintenance would need to investigate for possibility of paving. ' gAEngSvc\SpDistlZn5 Lstt3 Page 1 March 14,1996 ' 7. FLAME DRIVE: Between First Avenue and Second Avenue two grass/dirt areas opposite each other. Are they County easements or can they be landscaped? Road No. 3975S; current roadway paved area widths range between 30 and 40 feet; current roadway right of way area widths range between 50 ' and 60 feet;future roadway paved area width will be 40 feet;future roadway right of way area width will be 50 feet. The area in question appears to be located in the paved area width of 30 feet with a right of way ' area of 50 feet. Road maintenance would need to investigate. 8. CHILPANCINGO PARKWAYNIFTH AVENUE/IRONWOOD DRIVE: Pacheco's southern border. Island, can it be landscaped? Is there a water supply? Also, the areas north of Chilpancingo, i.e.Fifth Avenue/Ironwood Drive. Pathway, can it be landscaped? It would be nice to see some landscaping here. ' Road No. 3974; current roadway paved area width is 40 feet; current roadway right of way area width is 84 feet; C&G. Fifth Avenue has a ' current roadway paved area width of 12 feet, with a current right of way area width of 40 feet. Future roadway paved area width will be 32 feet; future roadway right of way area width will be 50 feet. Landscaping of the pathway is a possibility. 9. UNDER HIGHWAY 680 OVERPASS: Eyesore. Any kind of landscaping,if possible. Keep clean. ' Center Avenue is maintained by Maintenance Division, but the idea of landscaping would need to be taken up with Caltrans. 10. MARSH DRIVE: What can be done along the east side of Marsh Drive along the creek from Center Avenue to Solano Drive? ' East side would be landscaped. Landscaping would include bark, moss rock, irrigation facilities and plant material. ' 11. PACHECO BOULEVARD OVER CROSSING AT ASPEN DRIVE: Center island is separating and sinking at the bridge connection(concrete). It is breaking into pieces and needs some attention soon. Is this under road improvements? What can be done? I'es, this is under road improvements. ' 12. SECOND AVENUE AND CENTER AVENUE BRIDGE OVER CROSSINGS: Street sweeping? Graffiti problems-would this be covered under the Pacheco Beautification Areas? 13. CREEK SIDE BETWEEN CENTER AVENUE AND SECOND AVENUE: What can be done here? Is this County property? Grayson Creek belongs to the Flood Control District. Benches are a possibility. 9:\Engsvc4SpDist\Zn5 Lst.0 Page 2 March 14, 1996 ' 14. PACHECO BOULEVARD IN FRONT OF PUBLIC STORAGE BUSINESS: Can it be landscaped? No. There is no right of way here. Right of way ends at the face of curb. 15. MUIR ROAD AT PACHECO BOULEVARD: County easement? Can anything be done here? ' Dead trees here. Can they be removed? Who will pay for it? Yes, this is in the County right of way. The dead trees could be removed. ' Pacheco Beautification Areas LL-2 District would pay for it. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MISCELLANEOUS QUESTIONS 1. Are we entitled to services in these areas covered under our road maintenance taxes or other taxes? ' We want to make sure that we are not being taxed twice or assessed twice. ' 2. Street poles and signal lights need painting and repair. What area does this fall under? Street lights ' need to be repainted at the intersection of Center Avenue and Pacheco Boulevard. 3. Street cleaning and trash removal. New trash receptacles at various locations and more frequent ' pick-up. What about getting a work alternative program to cleanup trash, mainly on Pacheco Boulevard through the downtown. Dead pine needles on Pacheco Boulevard, fire hazard and blow into surrounding neighborhoods. 4. We would like to see a list of existing/current landscape districts in Pacheco and a total annual dollar amount received to the County already in taxes. We would like to combine the existing landscape ' districts into the Pacheco Beautification Area and any remaining funds should go to the overall Pacheco project. The communities already paying taxes on a landscape district should some how be credited this amount and not have to pay the same Pacheco Beautification Area tax as other ' Pacheco residents who do not pay anything currently.The current landscape district tax payers could possibly be pro rated their portion or the Pacheco Beautification Area taxes. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The following are landscaping suggestions contributed by Keith March of the Pacheco Town Council. Pacheco Boulevard: There are approximately five islands from Second Avenue,south,to Highway 4. Each island has between 5 to 15 planters that are filled with brick. The bricks need to be reset. Different colors, designs (i.e. Todos Santos)? Bomite could be used in place of planters. ' Aspen Drive/Pacheco Boulevard Island: Currently,the island is fairly clean,lots of mulch, some Nut Grass (weeds),one large bush growing off to one side. Sidewalk on creek side could use more work. "Right-turn only"sign is a definite hazard and needs to be moved over. Weeds need to be eradicated before spring and mulch laid. Later on,complete make over. Island and right-turn lane area on to Pacheco Boulevard could look fabulous with a small amount of shrubbery or ground cover. Mulch for now- free. gAEngSvc\SpDist\Zn5 Lst.0 Page 3 March 14,1996 ' Grayson Creek at Center Avenue and Second Avenue: Right now,need to be swept- badly. Graffiti could be painted over or washed off. In the future,just keep them swept. ' Fifth venue/Ironwood Drive: Currently,between the retaining wall and Fifth Avenue there is dirt, weeds, thorns, leaves, and rock(gravel). This area is an eyesore, and could cause flat tires. In the future landscaping phase,possibly have trees planted on the north side of the retaining wall(between the wall and sidewalkibike path). Perhaps evergreens. Shrubs planted on the south side of the retaining wall. Ivy that climbs along the wall would prevent delinquents from spaying wall with paint. Ivy, vines, etc., are not allowed in LL-2's. Large Moss Rock or sign saying"Welcome to Pacheco"or something to this effect. Statue or piece of other art at the corner of Ironwood,Fifth,and Chilpancingo. Center island strip is actually okay. It just needs to be kept up. A few of the trees have died due to lack of moisture. Mulch- free for now. g:\EngSvc\SpDist\Zn5 Lst13 Page 4 March 14,1996 � xlstory � AYt��lofp cbe�° i i , 1 PACHECO In the days before any village existed at Pacheco, 125 feet.

The R-9 Advisory Committee, appointed to advise the Board of Supervisors on local parks and recreation matters, has long recognized a community-wide need for increased park, landscaping and recreation facilities for the El Sobrante valley. Over the years, the R-9 Committee has partnered with the East Bay Regional Parks District for the renovation of the Senior Center at Kennedy Grove and the acquisition of the Hill-Radach property and scenic area. ' More recently the Committee has partnered with the West Contra Costa Unified School District to provide $287,300 in Park Dedication Trust Fund fees for needed play field and new play equipment ' installation at six local schools servicing the El Sobrante community. Funding these worthwhile projects has nearly depleted all available cash and grant reserves. Now the R-9 Committee needs the support of the community in the form of a small, $30.00 per single family parcel, per year assessment to continue improving local parks and begin the installation of ' landscaping along the Appian Way, San Pablo Dam Road and Valley View Road corridors. In addition to area-wide landscape beautification projects,this assessment will provide for continued park improvements at the local school sites,the creation of a linear park at the View Point property behind De Anza High School and numerous other beautification projects in the years to come. Unlike general taxes, this assessment can only be used in El Sobrante allowing all the monies collected to be used to improve the quality of life and enhancing property values in the valley.

Michael Walford,Public Works Director,makes this Report as Engineer of Work for Assessment District No. 1979-3 (LL-2),Contra Costa County,California,as directed by the Board of Supervisors ' pursuant to Section 22623 of the Streets and Highways Code (Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972). ' It is proposed to form a parks, landscape and recreational zone in the El Sobrante area. When formed, this zone will be annexed, as El Sobrante Area- Zone 66, to the Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). ' Purpose ' There is a need for attractive public areas with well maintained landscaping, trails, and recreational/picnic facilities along Appian Way, San Pablo Dam Road, and Valley View Road; ' intersection corridors; and throughout the El Sobrante area, including overdue improvements to the County-owned park site behind DeAnza High School. Well maintained landscaped public facilities will both enhance property values and improve the quality of life in the El Sobrante community. To ensure a consistent maintenance program for these services,and to prepare the studies as needed, the El Sobrante County Service Area R-9A Advisory Committee, in conjunction with the County, proposes to form the El Sobrante Area-Zone 66 and annex it to the Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2). ' Because the proposed zone will directly benefit all properties within the community, the estimated cost of maintaining, servicing and improving the various facilities is to be equally distributed among ' all property owners. Funding ' Funding for the project will be provided by annexing the El Sobrante Area to the Countywide Landscape District and levying special assessments for the maintenance of various facilities in the ' zone. The monies collected can only be used within the El Sobrante Area. Expenditure of the funds outside the El Sobrante Area would be prohibited. Funds not spent in a given year will be carried over into a subsequent year as a reserve fund.

The scope of work may include, but is not limited to, the ' following project inventory worksheet. Preparation of the necessary studies for the El Sobrante Area and related facilities will be funded through this zone. Costs of these studies must be jointly approved by the El Sobrante R-9A Advisory Committee and by Public Works, and may not exceed available reserve funds in the zone. ' Administration of the zone and the maintenance services will be provided by County forces. Proposed Boundaries ' The proposed zone shall include all the lands shown on the map designated,"County,vi&Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2), El Sobrante Area- Zone 66, Assessment Diagram." ' Landscaping_and Lighting Act ' It is proposed that the zone be annexed to AD 1979-3 (LL-2) under the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972. This Act provides for the levy and collection of assessment to cover the cost of maintaining, installing and servicing landscaping, parks, and recreational and other facilities. ' W ill Who W Be Assessed ' All residential and commercial properties within the proposed boundaries of the El Sobrante Area- Zone 66, Countywide Landscape District AD 1979-3 (LL-2) will be assessed. ' Uniform Assessment ' The proposed assessment is based upon a uniform apportionment of the estimated funding to the assessable residential and commercial parcels in the proposed zone. Assessment ' After the proposed annexation is approved,the Board of Supervisors will be required to adopt and approve an annual budget every year. This total budget will then be assessed on the properties within the zone and collections will be made with the annual tax bill.

I Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, requires assessments to be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. This section states: The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements. The determination of whether or not a lot or parcel will benefit from the improvements shall be made pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Division 7, commencing with Section 5000) of the Streets and Highways Code, State of California. ' Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a user's fee, not a tax, and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. IThe Act permits the designation of zones of benefit within any individual assessment district if "by reasons or variations in the nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will receive different degrees of benefit from the improvement" (Sec. 22547). Thus, the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a "special tax." Excepted from the assessment. would be the areas of all public streets, public avenues, public lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, all easements and rights-of-ways, all public parks, churches, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school property, other public property, designated open space, and public utilities. Benefit Well maintained landscaping, park, and recreational improvements provide an aesthetically ' pleasing environment throughout each benefit zone. These improvements provide shade, beautification, and according to some authorities, air purification and sound attenuation. The park and recreational facilities also enable recreational activities to be organized in the respective zones and add to the camaraderie of the neighborhoods and business areas. ' These positive attributes also increase property values throughout each zone. Since the type, size and number of improvements vary in each zone, it is imperative that the costs associated with operating, maintaining, and servicing the improvements in each zone be assessed to only the parcels in that zone. Assessment Methodology The total operation, maintenance and servicing cost for the landscaping, and public park facilities are apportioned in accordance with the methodology that is consistent with ' standard assessment engineering practices. The method for spreading the costs to each parcel is based on the Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) factor (Except Zone 7 assessment is on a potential floor area ratios for commercial industrial parcels). Since the assessment is levied on the owners of properties as shown on the tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were to be spread by parcel, not considering land use, this would not be equitable, because a single- family parcel would be paying the same as a 50-unit apartment parcel or a large commercial establishment. Therefore, as previously stated, the total assessment costs are spread to each parcel of land based on the number of EDUs associated with each particular parcel. The single family residential parcel has been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of assessments and is defined as one Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Commercial and industrial parcels benefit similarly to residential parcels because of increased property rvalues and the ability to have their workers and patrons use the park and recreational facilities. Commercial and industrial parcels are assessed based on their acreage because larger parcels have the ability to generate larger pedestrian flows. The methodology used to assign EDU's to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they receive relative to the single family residential parcel. r Developed Single Family Residential. The developed single family parcel has been selected as the basic unit for calculation of the benefit assessments. This basic unit shall ' be called an Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU). Parcels designated as developed single family residential uses per the Contra Costa County land use code are assessed one (1) EDU. Developed Multiple Residential. The EDUs for land designated as developed multi-family uses which includes condominiums, mobile homes and apartments are assessed a factor of ' one-half(0.5) EDU per dwelling unit, e.g., a parcel with a 100-unit apartment would be assessed 50 EDUs. Based on data from representative cities in Northern California, the multiple family residential factor of 50 percent is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation from various types of residential uses, in combination with population density per unit. ' Developed Commercial and Industrial. Developed commercial and industrial properties include commercial, industrial, recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per the ' Contra Costa County land use codes. The parcels are assessed based upon the acreage of the parcel. In converting developed commercial/industrial properties to EDUs, the factor used was'from the Contra Costa County's average single family lot residential lot size. The ' parcels will be assessed one (1) EDU for the first acre or any portion thereof, one (1.0) EDU/acre for each additional acre up to a maximum of three (3) EDUs (3 acres). The minimum number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.0) EDU. ' Vacant property Yis described as parcels with no improved structures. Property Yvalues increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and well maintained. Vacant Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant single family residential parcels will be assessed at 50% of the developed single family rate. The parcels which receive this rate are located in zones 9 and 16. Vacant Non-Single Family Residential. Parcels defined as vacant non-single family residential will be assessed at a 50% of the developed commercial/industrial rage. These parcels include vacant multi-family residential, commercial and industrial parcels. These parcels will be assessed at .50 EDUs per acre or any portion thereof, with a minimum of .50 EDU per parcel and a maximum of 1.50 EDUs per parcel (3 acres). Incremental ' acreage greater than 3 acres is considered to be open space area and therefore receive no further assessment. - 1 Exempt. Parcels of land listed on the County Assessor's record with tax-exempt status, ' as well as public utilities will not be assessed. The EDU's on all parcels which are tax exempt will be calculated on the basis of similar land uses if these are improvements which appear on the unsecured roll. The EDU's for these improvements are included in the appropriate land use classification. `T i$4 1 � •_j'y 4 j t ¢.. �I.CT -t l - t W ISL_ _ k Q ti : '{; ai 1 •/r,> • $ I F � i. <r M�'4f > 7.

Thus, in 1841 they applied for and received ®r 1 from the Mexican governor title to what turned out to be 17,000 acres.They gave it the name Rancho El W Sobrante, the Spanish "sobrante" meaning extra, ' vacant or remaining. The most recognizable feature i '1 of this grant became known as San Pablo Valley. The west border of the grant started near the inter- section of San Pablo Avenue and San Pablo Dam Road,stretching along the crest of the hills to Grizzly -~ Peak.The southern line ran from Grizzly Peak down to Charles Hill in Orinda. The northeast line varied : but averaged a mile and a half beyond San Pablo Creek from Orinda to a point within half a mile of San Pablo. The brothers, Victor and Juan Jose Castro, sold the first part of their land in 1847 to Colonel Smith, the founder of Martinez. Before long claimants start- v ' ed living on parts of the grant,and squatters simply made their farms out of other parts,all of them taking the chance that the United States Land Commission Patricio Castro, the grandson of Rancho would not confirm the Castrol' title, hence allowing San Pablo's grantee, Don Francisco Maria Castro, who lived on San Pablo Dam Road their claims. By 1873, Horace W. Carpentier, the at Castro Ranch Road.He moved to his 100- Castro brothers'attorney,claimed a large part of the acre ranch there in 1868.In 1882 he claimed to be the oldest living person born in Contra southern end of Rancho El Sobrante (Orinda and Costa County.

Its El So- brante station stood east and a little north of where San Pablo Avenue and San Pablo Dam Road meet. By the time the line began servingurinda,all thoughts of the original plan to lay rail to Walnut Creek, i Modesto and Nevada had dissolved.The cars carried more picnickers than freight and more hay than lumber. The line suffered damage to its trestles and roadbed each winter. An important source of revenue was the large number of weekend visitors and picnickers to El ' Sobrante's Oak Grove Park, near the intersection of May Road and San Pablo Dam Road, the site of a mobile home park today.

While all these events were taking place, the only ' public transportation available in EI Sobrante was that supplied by the Beringer Brothers bus line. It operated from the Herald Building out to the Roll- ' ingwood subdivision. The Herald Building housed Mr. and Mrs. Ed Galli's poultry business and newspaper office. As El ' Sobrante's population continued to increase, they discontinued their poultry line and devoted all their time to the newspaper. Ed Galli came from Oakland ' where he had worked on the Post-Enquirer and the Oakland Tribune.

The park is the only publicly available park in central El Sobrante. The park could become a spectacular gathering place with shade, flowers, and abundant parking. The grove was planted as a shady park. in time it can be used as an outdoor amphitheater. There are two circles of trees at the top of the hill, trees for shade on1he slope, and trees planted as a backdrop for a stage at the bottom of the hill. The hill, when used as a theater,could comfortably seat 800 people in blankets on the grass. The two circles of trees at the top of the hill can be use to enclose a playground,storytelling circle,campsite or park as students, parents, and F,1 Sobrante residents decide. The circles will make excellent sites for Halloween parties or Easter egg hunts. With some planning, the site could be rented for profit as a setting for weddings. In 1992 we planted a redwood grave on unused land at El Sobrante School. The ' trees were tube sized seedlings donated by Georgia Pacific Redwood Company. Today there are 90 trees small tress from 1,5 feet.to 7.5 feet tall with an average of about 3.5 feet. The park was immediately popular with students. Each student planted a seedling in the ground or in a gallon container. The West County Times photographed our park- when arkwhen we first planted seedlings and later when we held a contest to name the grove. Ms. Habcl's class won the contest with the name of "Grizzly Grove". The enclosures at the top of the hili are "Jurassic Bark" and "Whisper Woods". In the fall of 1993 we installed an irrigation system with money raised from the Parents'Support Group($350). Since planting the trees in 1992 parent volunteers have ' done all the labor to maintain the trees. Before Grizzly Grove the school's district maintenance workers mowed the hill several times a year with a tractor sized mower. For the first two years when the seedlings were too small to be seen from the tractor, parents, mostly Martin Homcc, mowed the entire hill with lawn mowers. Today the district has agreed to snow between trees,but parents still must mow"doughnuts" aniund the trees, where a tractor sized mower can't reach, t direct students to put mulch around the trees to kill competing weeds,and I turn the irrigation system on and off during,the summer. ' What We Need Grimly Grave will continue to need some maintenance beyond what the school ' district will provide. The school district's gardeners mow the hill with the tractor sired mower,but they can't mow around each tree, Eventually redwood trees defeat any grass and weeds underneath them. In time, the parent or gardener with the push mower will ' have less of a task to mow around each tree. There will be a need to turn the irrigation system on and off and a continuing need for someone to make certain the irrigation system is in good repair. ' Parent volunteers estimated that someone will have to mow around the trees four to six times a year depending on the rains. This takes about three to five hours each time. ' Turning on and off the irrigation system takes about ten minutes of labor once a week. i weeded the trees by laying down mulch,but weeding can be done by spraying Roundup. I estimate this could take five to ten hours a year. ' We may want to plant vines along the fence surrounding Grizzly Grove. We will need to trim back one of the neighbor's plum trees and some blackberry bushes that have grown onto school property. As the redwoods mature we could plant fuseia bushes under the trees. These will need some weeding. There is a primary and continuing need to keep the park clean and keep the ' school grounds free of litter. The school needs publicly available garbage cans and someone to remove litter and broken glass. ' The Possibilities With some maintenance Grizzly Grove could easily become an attractive shady park. It could become a place that could be rented for as a site for gatherings. � Letter to the � Board of Supervisors � by Rick Gulledge w ' Rick Gulled e g Chair Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors ' As both residential property and business owners in unincorporated EI Sobrante we support a $35 per year assessment on our homes and are willing to pay a proportionate increase in rent because of a similar commercial property assessment for the creation of ' an El Sobrante Landscape and Recreational Special District. We understand that allocation of the collected funds will have to be approved by our El Sobrante Recreation Committee (CSA-R9)and that these funds can be spent only toward creating landscaping, lighting, park, and recreational projects and only on projects within the EI Sobrante Area as defined by County law. Of special interest to us is the promotion of the San Pablo Creek and its watershed as a source of community identity and pride and the expenditure of such funds to create an Educational Access Site for schoolchildren and the General Public to further the awareness of the necessity of protecting the ecological balance and.unimpeded natural ' flow of the Creek. This site should be located at the El Sobrante Library and the necessary efforts should be accomplished to meet the needs of adjacent residents. a + a ® " f H v T� V IQ s s 0 00 so v I I I Cs C, I z O Oafw c I O Q O 1 U w w I -J . z I ��a I I EU r----_-----� 11 0O a w Q Nrn ►� I z I I W Zz va _� o a a N N N i tas vi3wvd W N o f z z m m LO000 II 1 ( zo g a a z �ao ao i I I I rn rn rn i t o -� I a W 11 jl I Q II o II II ce jl Iw IIs MA U)U) � W I U) �\ Un I \ Q I � \ NOLO Ito of { Io 'I tn00 000 O 0 0 6 0 0 0 13 I ) ` kz I 00 aoao CO CO ao 0) 0) rnrn (3) rn I o I Q• •� I as aaoaavas o Gs x \,� N ca r7 I1 o c- m 0 0 0 I W 10 NNV vanrn oin 1; U pp p0 p� I I AVM NOWHk:f o XVM 31NVS3a QO 00 (DO INONVFIS 0) 0) 1S I ) 31NVS3a II I�ii u�u�•1J�aJ L.+-+L.u iiti..iri.ri.!�a Li•ia.iu•✓ A 1�TPTr.T.TITT�!•t rTTPTr•T.ITTTTI P•1�T7!R.T.
