SUMMARY
The City of Hayward has sixteen Landscape and Lighting District Benefit Zones. The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 requires that a review and update of the Engineer’s Report for these zones be prepared annually to set assessment amounts for each zone. The assessment amounts may or may not change from fiscal year to fiscal year, depending upon the operation and maintenance needed to be performed in each zone, and the funding levels required for the operating and capital reserves. The recommended assessment cannot exceed the maximum base annual assessment rate established when the zones were originally formed. The FY 2019 Engineer’s Report includes a summary for each benefit zone, to include:
(1) a description of the improvements to be operated, maintained, and serviced;
(2) the FY 2019 recommended budget;
(3) the FY 2019 recommended assessment rate; and
(4) map of each benefit zone (assessment diagram).
For FY 2019, staff is recommending increases in fiscal assessments for benefit zones 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 16, from the previous fiscal year.
If the City Council adopts the attached resolutions, the revenue and expenditure budgets will be appropriated, and the final Assessor’s tax roll will be prepared and filed with the County Auditor’s Office allowing the assessments to be included in the FY 2019 tax roll.
