Streets within this zone have been improved with mid -block lighting. Since streets provide vehicular and pedestrian access to properties, the special benefit is apportioned based on the amount of these trips generated by each parcel. The Institute of Transportation Engineers has established a standard of trip generation that states that multiple dwelling units generate less pedestrian and vehicle trips than single family homes. Therefore, parcels with denser housing are assessed at a lesser rate per dwelling unit in general proportion to the trips generated. This basis provides an equitable relationship to the benefit received. ASSESSMENT RATE ($/D.U.)

Streets within this zone have been improved with mid -block lighting. Since streets provide vehicular and pedestrian access to commercial properties, the special benefit is apportioned based on the amount of these trips generated by each parcel. The Institute of Transportation Engineers has established a standard of trip generation that states that pedestrian and vehicle trips increase as the square footage of the land use increases. In general, larger parcels generate more trips. Therefore, every parcel in this zone is assessed according the land square footage of the parcel.

FISCAL YEAR 2018-2019 Direct assessments in this zone are separated according to the proportion of residential and commercial properties in the City. Since streets provide vehicular and pedestrian access to properties, the special benefit is apportioned based on the amount of these trips generated by each parcel. Given that residential and commercial properties generate different levels of street use, the assessment rates are calculated separately. Approximately 75% of the City is zoned Residential, while the remaining 25% is comprised of Commercial, Industrial, or other.
