2 -II. Financial Impact:
There will be no f nancial 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.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
This project will not be in compliance with the Conditions of Approval for LP992075, and an alternative
means to finance public right of way street lighting would have to he found.
THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF C:ONTILa COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA

The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County FiNDS THAT:
1. The County is currently processing 1_.1-1992075 (the"Development") consisting of I parcel, more specifically
described in Exhibit A. The ultimate number of parcels to be created from this development will be t parcel.
2. On March 13, 2001 the applicant Ibr the Development submitted a request to the Department uf.'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 it 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" under Article RIND 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 bight Service Charge for Fiscal Year 2000/2001 (the"Engineer's Report") is attached as Exhibit B. The
Engineer's Report meets the requirements of it 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 Strect 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.

�I4 /A/6
On July 11, 2000, as an attachment 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 atter they are amiexed 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 S14.94 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 fainlly 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)unforeseen 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 Arca (CSA) L-100 Lighting District.
