Preliminary Engineer's Report for Contra Costa County Countywide Landscape District (LL-2)
Zone 72, and fixing a hearing for April 25, 2006 at.9:30 a.m. to consider levying an assessment
for parcels to be included and certify the tabulation of the ballots submitted for the proposed
assessment, Oakley area. (District V)
The Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County FINDS THAT:
1. The County is currently processing Vesting Tentative Map (the "Development").
2. On April 4, 2005, the applicant for the Developments submitted a request to the Department of Public
Works for inclusion of the Developments into the formation of Contra Costa County Countywide
Landscape District (LL-2) Zone 72. The County intends to initiate proceedings to form LL-2 Zone 72
pursuant to that request.
3. Once the Developments are included into LL-2 Zone 72, the parcel(s) within it will receive a special
benefit over and above that received by the general public in the form of landscaping improvements and
services as defined in Section 22503 of the Streets and Highways Code and Landscape and Lighting Act
of 1972.
4. In order to fund the Extended Service that will be provided to the parcel(s) within the Developments, it
will be necessary to levy a service charge (the"Assessment"). The service charge meets the requirements
of an "Assessment" under Article Xis of the California Constitution because it is conferred to provide
the special benefit, defined above, on the parcel(s)within the development.
5. A copy of the Fiscal Year 2005/2006 Mid-Year Annexation Preliminary Engineer's Report for
establishing a maximum landscape service charge (the "Engineer's Report") is attached as Exhibit A.
The Engineer's Report meets the requirements of a report under Article 4-Sections 22565 through 22573.
The Engineer's Report includes: a description of the improvements to be maintained, the maximum
estimate of cost, the Assessment Diagram, the method of Apportionment of Assessment and Property
Owner List &Assessment Roll.

6. Based upon its review of the Engineer's Report, The Board finds that:
(a) The Special Benefit financed by the Assessment will directly benefit the parcels within the
development.
(b) The cost of the Assessment on each parcel within the Development is proportional to the benefits
that the Special Benefit will confer 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 April 25, 2006 at 9:30 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 Bloard to immediately provide the Public Works Department 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"Notice of Assessment"), attached as Exhibit B,to the record owners of
each parcel within Zone 72. The ballot, attached as Exhibit C, shall be attached to the Notice of
Assessment. A copy of the Engineer's Report is on file with the Public Works Department.
3. At the Hearing, the Board shall consider any objections or protests to the Assessment and certify the
tabulation of the ballots. At the close of the Public Hearing, the Public Works Department shall tabulate
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;
finds that the Director of the Contra Costa County Public Works Department, acting as the designated
director, has concluded that the Engineer's Report confirms to the official assessment roll for the year in
which the assessment will be collected and, therefore, constitutes the Final Report for the Assessment.

INTRODUCTION
ENGINEER'S REPORT
COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPING DISTRICT(LL-2)
MID YEAR FISCAL YEAR 2005-06
Background Information
To ensure the proper flow of funds for the ongoing operation, maintenance and servicing of
specific improvements within the boundaries of Contra Costa County,the Board of Supervisors,
through the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972,has previously approved the formation of the
Countywide Landscaping District (LL-2) or "District" and is currently proposing the formation
of a new Zone for the District. Improvements that may be constructed, operated, maintained
and serviced by the District include:
Landscaping, irrigation, lightil g(not street lighting except in special cases),park and recreational
facilities,and appurtenant facilities including but not limited to;personnel,electrical energy,utilities
such as water, materials, contractual services, and other items necessary for the satisfactory
operation of these services and facilities.
Generally, developers as a party of their conditions permitting the developer to construct new
housing or commercial/industrial developments, construct these public improvements.
However, the ongoing operation,maintenance and servicing of these improvements are financed
through the District. The District is composed of benefit zones to ensure the operation;
maintenance and servicing of the improvements are specifically paid for by those property
owners who directly benefit from the improvements.
For Mid Year FY2005-06,it is anticipated that Zone 72 will be created. This new zone will need
property owner approval priorlto final approval from the Board of Supervisors. This process is
discussed in Section II; `Proposition 218' of this Report.
Current Annual Administration
As required by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, the Engineer's Report includes: (1) a
description of the improvements to be operated, maintained and serviced by Zone 72, (2) an
estimated build out budget for(Zone 72, and (3) a listing of the proposed maximum assessments
to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within Zone 72.
The Contra Costa Board of Suervisors will hold a Public Hearing,April 25, 2006,regarding the
formation of Zone 72 which will provide an opportunity for any interested person to be heard.
At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, if the assessment ballot tabulation is favorable, the
Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors may adopt a resolution confirming the maximum
assessment rate as originally pro posed or modified.
Payment of these annual assessments for each parcel will be made in the same manner and at the
same time as payments are made for their annual property taxes. All funds collected through the
assessments must be placed in a special fund and can only be used for the purposes stated
within this Report.

SECTION II
IMPACTS OF PROPOSITION 218
ENGINEER'S REPORT
COUNTYWIDE LANDSCAPING DISTRICT(LL-2)
MID YEAR FISCAL YEAR 2005-06
On November 5, 1996 California voters approved Proposition 218 entitled "Right to Vote on
Taxes Act' which added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution. While its
title refers only to taxes, Proposition 218 establishes new procedural requirements for the
formation and administration of assessment districts.
J
These new procedures stipulate that even if assessments are initially exempt from Proposition
218, future increases in assessments must comply with the provisions of Proposition 218.
However, if the increase in assessment were anticipated in the assessment formula (e.g.,
Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase or assessment cap) then the County would not need to
comply with the provisions of Proposition 218.
For Mid Year FY2005-06, it is anticipated that Zone 72 will be formed. In order to comply
with the requirements of Proposition 218,the County will implement the following procedures:
1) Every property owner within the area being formed will be mailed a ballot,which
will allow the property owner to cast their vote on whether to form Zone 72. A
notice describing) the assessment, the individual property owner's maximum
annual assessment rate, the duration of the assessment, the reason for the
assessment and jthe basis upon which the assessment is calculated will
accompany the ballots.
2) After the close of the Public Hearing on April 25, 2006, the ballots, which are
returned within 415 days after mailing,will be tabulated to determine whether or
not a majority protest against the assessment in Zone 72 exists.
3) The ballots will be weighted based on their proportionate amount of their
maximum assessment for the zone.
4) If there are pub)Icly owned properties (generally those which are developed as
opposed to open pace)they will be assessed.
All property owners will be noticed in accordance with Proposition 218 prior to the Public Hearing.
At the conclusion of the Public Hearing,.and after the ballots have been tabulated, the County
Board of Supervisors may adopt a resolution confirming the maximum assessment rate.

Contra Costa Countywide Landscaping District(LL2) SECTION III
Zone 72 Mid Year Annexation Fiscal Year 2005-06 PART D
PART D
METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF ASSESSMENT
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 Agencies for the purpose of providing
certain public improvements, which include the operation, maintenance and servicing of
landscaping and street lighting improvements.
Section 22573 of the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 requires that maintenance
assessments must 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 pr oportion to the estimated benefit to be received by each such
lot orparcel 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 19II (Division 7 (commencing with
Section 5000))[of the Streets and Highways Code,State of California]."
In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4(a) of the California Constitution limits the amount of any
assessment to the proportional special benefit conferred on the property.
Because assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are not considered a tax, and
therefore,are not governed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution.
The 1972 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. 22574). Thus,
the 1972 Act requires the levy of a true "assessment" rather than a'special tax."
Article XIIID provides that publicly owned properties must be assessed unless there is clear and
convincing evidence that those properties receive no special benefit from the assessment.
Exempted from the assessment would be the areas of public streets, public avenues, public
lanes, public roads, public drives, public courts, public alleys, public easements and rights-of-
ways, public greenbelts and public parkways, and that portion of public property that is not
developed and used for business purposes similar to private commercial, industrial and
institutional activities.

Zone 72 Mid Year Annexation Fiscal Year 2005-06 PART D
LANDSCAPING BENEFIT DETERMINATION
Well-maintained parks pro I ide recreational opportunities, beautification, shade and
enhancement of the surroundings. These aesthetically pleasing attributes increase property
values and attract homebuyers and businesses to the area. If public recreational areas were not
properly maintained, they would reduce the quality of life and decrease property values in the
surrounding areas.
These balifield improvements provide special benefit to the single family parcels located within
Zone 72. There was one existing homesite in the area prior to development, this homesite is not
included due to the fact the improvements to be maintained and operated are a condition of
development.
ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The total operation, maint ance and servicing cost for the landscaping facilities are
apportioned in accordance with the methodology, that is consistent with standard assessment
engineering practices.
As certain subdivisions develop throughout the County, they may be annexed into an existing
Zone or a new Zone may be created. Each new subdivision is evaluated to determine which
improvements are of a specific''and direct benefit to the parcels within the subdivision and then
a determination is made whether to annex them into an existing Zone or form a new Zone. The
parcels, which benefit from the improvements, are then identified and a benefit assessment
methodology is developed to allocate the costs of the improvements to the benefiting parcels.
Since the assessments are levied on the owners of properties as shown on the secured property
tax rolls, the final charges must be assigned by Assessor's Parcel Number. If assessments were
to be allocated 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 allocated to each
parcel of land based on benefit received by each particular parcel.
The methodology used to assign EDUs to other land uses in proportion to the benefit they
receive relative to the single family residential parcel and is explained below.
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 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% is determined by the statistical proportion of relative trip generation
from various types of residential uses,in combination with density per unit.

Zone 72M-id YearAnnexation Fiscal Year2005-06 PART D
Developed Commercia-Vindustrial Recreational, Institutional, and Other Miscellaneous
Uses - Developed commercial) and industrial properties include commercial, industrial,
recreational, institutional or miscellaneous uses per 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 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. The minimum
number of EDUs per parcel will be one (1.00)EDU.
Undeveloped property is described as parcels with no improved structures. Property values
increase for undeveloped parcels when public infrastructure improvements are installed and
well maintained.
Undeveloped Single Family Residential - Parcels defined as undeveloped single family
residential parcels will be assessed at 50%of the developed single family rate.
Undeveloped Non-Single_Family Residential - Parcels defined as undeveloped non-single
family residential will be assessed at 50% of the developed commercial/industrial rate. These
parcels include undeveloped 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.
Exempt - Exempted 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, cemeteries, greenbelts and parkways and all public school
property,other public property,designated open space, and public utilities.
Zone 72 (Summerlake Community Park—Oakley Area) Vesting Tentative Map 7562
It is anticipated that Zone 72 will consist of 1,330 single family parcels and 14.40 acres of
undeveloped non-single family residential at build out. Each of the parcels located within this
zone will be assessed an equallshare of the total assessment for this zone. Single family parcels
are proposed to be assessed at 11.00 EDU/parcel and undeveloped non-single family are proposed
to be assessed at 0.50 EDUs/acre, It is estimated that at build out of the Zone the total amount

CONTRA COSTA COUNTY
LANDSCAPE & LIGHTING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT —Zone 72
NOTICE OF PROPOSED ASSESSMENT
Attn: Jeff Shetterly Assessor Parcel Nos.: See attached ballot
Shea Homes Limited Partnership
2600 Shea Center Drive FY 2005-06 Rate per EDU: $20.00
Livermore, CA 94661 Maximum Rate per EDU: $805.,711
REASON FOR THE PROPOSED ASSESSMENT
Contra Costa County is proposingIo form Zone 72 of the Countywide Landscape & Lighting Assessment
District ("Zone") this fiscal year to establish a funding mechanism for property owners to operate and
maintain the Summerlake Community Park ("Public Improvements") associated with the development of
Vesting Tentative Map 7562. This annual assessment is levied on all property owners who directly benefit
from the Public Improvements associated with their development.
DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS
The Zone funds will be used to operate and maintain the Public Improvements associated with their
development. The annual landscape maintenance will include, but is not limited to public landscaping,
irrigation, planting, shrubbery, ground cover, trees, pathways, trails hardscapes, walls, fences, and other
appurtenant facilities. The annual operational costs will include, but are not limited to, water, materials,
electrical energy,personnel, equipment, etc. that is needed to maintain the public improvements.
BASIS FOR CALCULATING ASSESSMENTS
Each year the County Public Works staff will determine how much it will cost to operate and maintain the
above described Public Improvements within Zone 72. These costs will be distributed proportionally to all
of the benefiting parcels within the Zone based on the following calculations. A single family parcel has
been selected as the basic unit for the calculation of assessments. Therefore, the single family parcel is
defined as one(1.00)Equivalent Dwelling Unit(EDU).
Zone 72 will eventually be comprised of 1,330 single family parcels and 14.40 acres of undeveloped non-
single family residential at build out. Therefore the calculation of the equivalent dwelling units would be
(1,330 * 1.00 EDUs)+ (14.40acres*0.50 EDU)= 1337.20 EDUs.
DURATION OF ASSESSMENTS
In order to operate and maintain the Improvements within the Zone, the County plans to levy an
assessment each fiscal year in perpetuity.
