An estimated $105,606 will be carried over from 1989-90 in the form of reserves. $170,632 will be assessed to property owners for the 1990-91 street lighting costs. DESCRIPTION: In 1983, the City Council formed a Citywide Street Lighting Assessment District to replace the County of Alameda Lighting Service Area. On August 13, 1984, the City Council approved the Annual Engineer's Report and ordered levy of assessments for the first time. The District budget for Fiscal Year 1984-85 (the first year) was $116,500. The District expenditures for the subsequent fiscal years and budget for 1990-91 are detailed on Exhibit 1 attached. The 1989-90 District assessment will not increase for Fiscal Year 1990-91. For Fiscal Year 1990-91, no change is recommended with respect to the method of determining the assessments. The District diagram boundary is proposed to be the same as the City Limits; no annexations were made in the period between March 1, 1989, and February 28, 1990. The actual assessments to property owners will be calculated once the City receives the tax rolls from the County Assessor' s Office. Last year's assessment for a single-family house was $17. 82. Staff would estimate that the 1990-91 assessment would be about the same or slightly. lower for a single-family house based on the proposed assessment. As the number of street lights increase when new Tracts are accepted, the number of parcels that are assessed also increases. For this reason, the assessment has remained approximately the same over the years. The drop in last year' s assessments was due to the filing of condominium plans over some of the Villages developments and the Amador Lakes development. The individual condominium owners pay a higher rate than a single large-lot apartment complex. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution.
