11.
2 -11. Financial Impact:
There will be no financial impact to the County General Fund. All costs will be covered with revenue from
the Countywide Street Light District, CSA L-100.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
The developer is required by Condition of Approval to install street lighting fixtures and annex to the
County's street light program, CSA L-100, for continued maintenance and operation of those fixtures.
Proposition 218 provides that any new assessment may not be approved if it is opposed by a majority of the
property owners voting on the proposed assessment. The Board Order and Resolution complies with the
requirements for new assessments under Proposition 218.
1V. Consequences of Negative Action:
This project will not be in compliance with the Conditions of Approval for MS970016, and an alternative
means to finance public right of way street lighting would have to be found.
TILE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
Adopted this Resolution on May 15, 2001, by the following vote:
AYES: SUPERVISORS GIOIA, GERBER, DESAULNIER, GLOVER, AND UILKEMA
NOES: NONE
ABSENT: NONE
ABSTAIN: NONE
RESOLUTION NO. 2001/207
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE ENGINEER'S REPORT AND FIXING A PUBLIC HEARING
TO CONSIDER LEVYING AN ASSESSMENT FOR ADDITIONAL PARCELS TO BE
ANNEXED TO COUNTYWIDE L-100 LIGHTING DISTRICT
The:Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County FINDS THAT:
1. The County is currently processing MS970016 (the "Development") consisting of 1 parcel, more
specifically described in Exhibit A. The ultimate number of parcels to be created from this development
will be 3 parcels.
2. On November 8, 2000 the applicant for the Development submitted a request to the Department of Public
Works for inclusion of the Development into County Service Area L-100(CSA L-100). The County intends
to initiate proceedings to annex the Development into CSA L-100 pursuant to that request.
3. Once the Development is annexed into CSA L-100, the parcels within it will receive a special benefit
over and above that received by the general public in the form of lighting services. This service is a
"miscellaneous extended service" (the "Extended Service") as defined in Article 1012-2.406 of the Contra
Costa County Code.
4. In order to fund the Extended Service that will be provided to the parcels within the Development, it will
be necessary to levy a service charge (the "Assessment"). The service charge meets the requirements of an
"assessment" Linder Article XIIID of the California Constitution because it is conferred to provide the special
benefit, defined above, on the parcels within the development.
5. A copy of the "Addendum to the Final Engineer's Report to the Board of Supervisors for Establishing
A Street Light Service Charge for Fiscal Year 2000/2001 (the "Engineer's Report") is attached as Exhibit
B. The Engineer's Report meets the requirements of a tentative report under Article 1012-2.602 of the
Contra Costa County Code. The.Engineer's Report includes: a description of each parcel of real property
receiving the Extended Service, the Assessment Diagram, the total Assessment chargeable to the entire
service area; the estimated Assessment chargeable to each parcel, the calculations supporting the
Assessment, and the duration of the Assessment.
6. The Board has adopted the Engineer's Report for the Countywide Street Light Program on July 11, 2000.
Based on its review of the Engineer's Report, the Board finds that:
(a) The Extended Service financed by the Assessment will directly benefit the parcels within the
development.
(b)The cost of the Assessment on each parcel within the Development is proportional to the benefits
that the Extended Service will confer on each parcel.

Now, Therefore The Board Of Supervisors ORDERS AND RESOLVES As Follows:
1. The board will conduct a public hearing (the "Hearing") on July 10, 2001 at 9:00 a.m. in Room 107 of
the Board of Supervisors' Chambers, 651 Pine Street, Martinez, California 94553.
2. The Board directs the Clerk of the Board to immediately provide the Public Works Director of Contra
Costa County with a copy of this resolution. The Board directs the Public Works Director to mail the
written notice of the Hearing (the"Ballot Notice") attached as Exhibit C to the record owners of each parcel
within the development. The ballot attached as Exhibit D shall be attached to the Ballot Notice. A copy of
the Engineer's Report is on File with the Public Works Department.
3. Immediately before the Hearing the Public Works Department shall tabulate the Ballots. At the Hearing,
the Board shall consider any objections or protests to the Assessment and certify the tabulation of the
Ballots. The Board shall not impose the Assessment if there is a majority protest. A majority protest exists
if, upon conclusion of the Hearing, Ballots submitted in opposition to the Assessment exceed the Ballots
submitted in favor of the Assessment. In tabulating the Ballots, the Ballots shall be weighted according to
the proportional financial obligation of the affected property.
4. If there is no Majority Protest, the Board may adopt a resolution which: confirms the Engineer's Report;
levies the Assessment in the Engineer's Report; finds that the Director of the Contra Costa County Public
Works Department, acting as the designated director, has concluded that the Engineer's Report conforms
to the official assessment roll for the year in which the assessment will be collected and, therefore,
constitutes the Final Report for the Assessment; confirms the Final Report; and levies the Assessment for
the Fiscal year referred to in the Engineer's Report.
I hereby certify that this is.a true and correct
copy of an action taken and entered on the
minutes of the Board of Supervisors on the

On July 11, 2000, as an attachment to Resolution 99/323, the Board of Supervisors adopted the "Final Engineer's
Report To The Board of Supervisors For Establishing A Street Lighting Service Charge For Fiscal Year 2000/2001".
That report recommends levying of a street lighting charge as provided in the County Service Area Law,
Government Code sections 25210.1, and following and in accordance with Ordinance No. 79-42, adopted by the
Board of Supervisors on March 27, 1979. This addendum supplements that report by providing support for levying
such an assessment on the parcels described in Exhibit A after they are annexed into County Service Area L-100
("CSA L-100").
Total Assessment/ Charge On CSA L-100
In the event that the proposed assessment is levied, the total amount chargeable to CSA L-100 will be
14.94 per parcel.
Assessment on Each Parcel
Each parcel described by Exhibit A shall be assessed $14.94 in Fiscal Year 2002/03.
Methodology for Calculating Street Lighting Assessments
The"benefit received"is based on a sliding scale of 1 basic unit charge for a single family dwelling unit to as much
as 8 basic unit charges for a large apartment complex. The service charge for each County Service Area is based
upon several factors such as (1) cost required to pay the Pacific Gas & Electric Company's current monthly
electrical bill; (2) the number and types of parcels within each Service Area; (3) a reserve fund for Administrative
and Accounting services provided by the County and; (4)unforseen expenses such as electrical rate increases. The
assessment revenue is used to pay for the total costs of operating the street light system and those costs are
apportioned among the various parcels in the County Service Area (CSA) L-100 Lighting District.

BALLOT NOTICE
Why did you receive this Ballot?
When your development was approved,there was a requirement(condition of approval)to annex the parce](s)into the County
Service Area L-100 Lighting District and for an annual assessment to be imposed on every parcel in your development to
pay for the cost of maintaining the street lighting within the public right of way.
