Pursuant to the adoption of Resolution No. 20-7937 by the City Council on April 14, 2020, the
Engineer's Report for Fiscal Year 2020-21, attached hereto as Exhibit "A", of Attachment A is
complete and ready to be forwarded to the City Council for consideration and approval. The
Engineer's Report contains the methodology used to determine the assessment rates of the various
zones within AD 121 for the subsequent fiscal year based on the total number of dwelling units (for
residential uses), the total square footage (for non-residential uses) and the total projected
expenditures within each zone.
A total of 17 residential dwelling units will be added to Zone I of the district during this fiscal year. Of
the 17 new residential dwelling units, eight are townhome units located at 10341 Western Avenue,
seven are townhome units located at 8104 Stewart & Gray Road and two are single-family dwelling
units located at 7735 and 7741 Third Street. In addition, two commercial -zoned parcels located at
8818 and 8900 Imperial Highway will be added to Zone 11 of the district this fiscal year. A list of the 17
residential properties and two commercial parcels to be added to the district is included in Attachment
C.
For purposes of calculating the assessments, the District is divided into seven zones. A summary of
the zones, including the maximum assessment rate for individual residential parcels and commercial
areas is provided in Table 1.

ELECTRICITY RATES
Energy costs are a combination of SCE charges. SCE utilizes an "LS" rate schedule for street lights,
with rates for SCE -owned lighting (LS-1) higher than for City -owned equipment (LS-2 & LS-3). The
SCE "OL-1" rate is for non -highway area lighting, whereas the "TC-11" rate schedule applies to traffic
control signals and corresponding intersection lighting. A conservative estimated 5% increase in
energy rates was assumed for calendar year (CY) 2020 and are summarized below in Table 2 along
with the actual rates during CY 2019.

As indicated in Table 3, the estimated cost for operating, maintaining and upgrading the street lightims
and landscaping in all seven zones for FY 2020-2021 is $1,834,773, a $205,897 decrease compa
to the FY 2019-2020 adopted budget amount of $2,040,670. Current and anticipated SCE ene

rates are incorporated into the FY 2020-2021 cost estimates for all zones. Table 3 also provid
I
historical expenses by zone. In Zone 1, costs are expected to decrease by $47,757 in FY 2020-
compared to the current fiscal year. For this reason as well as the fact that this zone receiv
I
property tax revenue, a positive balance in this zone by June 30, 2020 can be sustained without t
need for a rate increase in this zone. In Zone 111, costs are expected to decrease by $86,79
However, a negative balance in this zone by June 30, 2020 remains.

Since FY 2012-2013, a number of assessment rate increases and decreases have been made. A
history of the rates since FY 2012-2013, as well as the proposed rates and the full assessments for
the seven zones are presented in Table 4 on page 6 of this report.
Overall, costs to operate, maintain and upgrade the District are expected to decrease in FY 2020-
2021. However, with a lack of revenue growth from additional sources (general property taxes and
interest income) and additional properties joining the District in Zones I and 11 only, there are still
inadequate fund reserves as indicated to achieve positive fund balances in Zones III, VI and L (see
Table 5 on page 7), thus necessitating the maximum assessment rate levels for these zones (see
Table 4).
The number of residential properties contributing to Zone I has increased by 17 parcels during the
current FY 2019-2020, which include a total of eight townhome units located at 10341 Western
Avenue, seven townhome units located at 8104 Stewart & Gray Road and two single-family dwelling
units located at 7735 and 7741 Third Street. In addition, the number of commercial parcels
contributing to Zone 11 has increased by two parcels during the current FY 2019-2020, which include
two commercial -zoned parcels located at 8818 and 8900 Imperial Highway. General property taxes
allocated to Zone I result in a projected positive fund balance through the end of FY 2019-2020. As
previously indicated, the City is in the process of conducting a Proposition 218 assessment rate study
to investigate the feasibility of increasing the maximum rates in the zones which have negative
balances and possibly reallocating the property tax revenue among the zones more equitably. Even
with a portion of the cost of the rate study deducted from the Zone I balance, the City, therefore, will
not collect any assessment revenue from property owners located in Zone I due to the relatively high
current balance within this zone.
Table 5 provides a summary of the funding sources, estimated costs and year-end balance for FY
2019-2020 and the projected costs and funding sources for FY 2020-2021.
In Zone III, generally increasing traffic signal, flashing beacon and vehicle speed feedback sign
maintenance costs have resulted in a negative balance over the past several years. As of June 30,
2020, a negative balance of $1,041,831 is anticipated (see Table 5). At this time, both residential and
commercial properties in Zone III are charged the maximum set rates and Zone III receives no
property tax revenue. In addition, the estimated FY 2020-2021 costs for the maintenance of traffic
signals, flashing beacons and vehicle speed feedback signs will leave this zone with an estimated
negative balance of $922,102 through the end of FY 2020-2021.
For Zone L, with hundreds of trees planted or to be planted as part of street widening, median, and
streetscape projects on major streets (Paramount Boulevard, Firestone Boulevard, Telegraph Road,
etc.) as well as an ongoing tree -planting projects associated with the 1-5 Freeway Widening Project
and Cal -Fire grant, landscape maintenance costs are continuing to increase. As of June 30, 2020, a
negative balance of $2,534,200 is anticipated (see Table 5). At this time, both residential and
commercial properties in Zone L are charged the maximum set rate and this zone also receives no
property tax revenue. In addition, the FY 2019-2020 costs for trimming, removal and planting of trees
and landscape maintenance within the public right-of-way will leave this fund with an estimated
negative balance of $2,800,660 through the end of FY 2020-2021.
Due to running negative balances in various zones over the past several years, the District has been
subsidized by the General Fund from time to time and, in order for the District to operate in a self-
sustaining manner, Zones III, VI and L will require rate increases through a Proposition 218
proceeding. The City is proposing to go through the Proposition 218 process, as previously
mentioned, during FY 2020-2021 in an effort to potentially increase the maximum assessment rates
(in order to fully recoup maintenance contract expectations) within these zones as well as redistribute
the property tax among the zones in a more equitable manner.

A more detailed summary of the funding breakdown, operational cost, and fund balances is provided

SETTING ASSESSMENT RATES
Pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, the City collects assessments for lighting
improvements, maintenance and energy costs; traffic signal maintenance and energy costs, and
landscaping maintenance of public trees on City streets and rights -of -way. Direct assessments are
distributed based on the special benefit each property receives. Since streets provide vehicular and
pedestrian access to properties, the special benefit is apportioned based on the number of trips
generated by each parcel.
The California Streets and Highways Code requires the City Council to adopt resolutions and hold a
public hearing each year to set the assessment rates for the various zones within the Lighting and
Landscaping Assessment District for the ensuing year. From these rates, assessments are
calculated and levied against the properties in the District. The City coordinates with the Los Angeles
County Auditor -Controller's Office to include applicable assessments and adjustments on property tax
bills in order to collect the assessment revenue.

To pay for the FY 2020-2021 expenses, it is estimated that the District will use $804,500 in general
property tax funds designated specifically for street light operations and maintenance, $2,500 in
interest earned from reserves in the Street Lighting Fund, and $1,066,055 from the direct
assessments. A summary of the funding sources, estimated costs and year-end balance for FY
2019-2020 and the projected costs and funding sources for FY 2020-2021 is provided in Table 5.
Although other sources of revenue such as rental, interest, and property taxes will continue to be
used to pay for expenditures in the District, none of the proposed collections will exceed the
maximum assessment rates.

Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121
Engineer's Annual Report
Fiscal Year 2020/2021
Introduction
Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121
(the "District") in order to provide and maintain various lighting and landscaping improvements
throughout the City that provide special benefits to properties within the City.
The District boundary is coterminous with the boundary of the City of Downey and in accordance
with the 1972 Act, the District utilizes benefit zones ("Zones") to address variations in the nature,
location, and extent of the improvements that provide special benefits to parcels in the District.
Within the boundaries of the District, parcels are assigned to various Zones each of which is
associated with a set of improvements and/or type of improvements that provide special benefit
to properties within that Zone.
In fiscal year 2019/2020, the District was comprised of the following Zones:
Zone 1: Residential Street Lighting Account 23-4-5511;
Zone II: Commercial Street Lighting Account 23-4-5512;
> Zone III: Safety Lighting and Traffic Signals Account 23-4-5513;
> Zone IV: Petition Street Light Installations Account 23-4-5514;
> Zone V: Regional Shopping Center Street Lighting Account 23-4-5515;

For fiscal year 2020/2021 there are two new traffic signal installations, raising the total to liM
traffic signals within the City and, through a series of traffic signal upgrades to be completed this
fiscal year, there will be an increase in the number of city -owned safety lights by 36 and City -
others (Shared) safety lights by 3, increasing the totals to 525 city -owned and 36 City -Others
(Shared) safety lights, respectively.
No other notable or substantial changes to the District and/or improvements have occurred since

Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121
Engineer's Annual Report
As required by the 1972 Act, this Engineer's Report describes the improvements to be provided,
maintained and serviced by the District, an estimated budget for the District improvements, and
the proposed assessments to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District for
fiscal year 2020/2021.
While the budgets outlined in this Report reflect the estimated costs necessary to fully and
adequately provide for the maintenance and operation of the improvements within the District, in
some circumstances the estimated costs and associated services cannot be fully funded by the
combination of the current special benefit assessment revenues and the City contribution for
general benefits. Therefore, in addition to the City's contribution for general benefit costs, at the
discretion of the City Council, the City may also provide additional funding to support the
improvements and/or implement service reductions for the fiscal year. To fully fund the
improvements that are considered special benefits, it may be necessary in the future to increase
assessment revenues which would require the support of the property owners for new or
increased assessments through a ballot proceeding conducted under the provisions of the
California Constitution Article XIII D.
Plans an2d Specifications: This section provides a general description of the District and the
improvements for which parcels are assessed. The proposed assessments as outlined in this
mitigation equipment, and operational expenses authorized pursuant to the 1972 Act. The plans
and specifications contained in this Report generally describe the nature and extent of the
improvements. In conjunction with these general descriptions of the improvements a visual
depiction of the landscape improvement areas is provided in "Part V- Assessment Diagrams" of
this Report. More detailed information regarding the specific plans and specifications associated
with the improvements are on file in the Public Works Department and by reference are made

which includes a discussion of the proportional costs of the special benefits and a separation of
costs considered to be of general benefit (and therefore not assessed). This section of the Report
also outlines the method of calculating each property's proportional special benefit necessary to
calculate the property's annual assessment. This method of apportionment is consistent with the
previously adopted method of apportionment for the District that was approved by the property
owners in a protest ballot proceeding conducted in 1997 as well as subsequent Property Owner
Protest Ballot Proceedings conducted for increased assessments in individual Zones pursuant to
the provisions of the California Constitution Article XIIID.

The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of
providing certain public improvements, including the acquisition, construction, installation and
-.R-ervicing of landscape improvements and related facilities. The 1972 Act requires that the cost of
these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value:
Section 22573 defines the net amount to be assessed as follows:
in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the
improvements. "
Section 22574 provides for zones as follows:
"The diagram and assessment may classify various areas within an assessment district into
different zones where by reason of variations in the nature, location, and extent of the
improvements, the various areas will receive differing degrees of benefit from the improvements.

result, the maintenance of these landscaped improvements provides particular and distinct
benefits to the properties and developments within the District.
Likewise, street lighting in the District is primarily useful for illuminating the streets that proviclt
access to the properties in the District as well as the sidewalks and parking lanes associated with
those properties. While it is recognized that both street lights and traffic signals serve in part to
enhance traffic safety, installation and construction of these improvements are clearly required by
the development of properties within the District and these improvements provide three main
special benefits to those properties: (i) property security benefit, (ii) pedestrian safety benefit, and
(iii) parkway/roadway egress benefit. Furthermore, because traffic circulation in the City is largely
the result of local traffic to and from these properties by the property owners and guests, it is

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
tstablished 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
2re 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.

Zone 2: Commercial Account 23-4-5512
Direct assessments in Zone 2 are distributed based on the special benefit each property receives.
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. This basis provides an equitable relationship to the benefit received.

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
zach 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 and the
assessments areproportionately allocated the same.

the boundaries of the District Lighting Zones 1, 2, 5, and 6, and Landscaping Zone L for fiscal
year 2020/2021. The Safety Lights and Traffic Signals Zone 3 is coterminous with the City
boundary as well as Landscaping Zone L and therefore not depicted herein as a separate
diagram. For fiscal year 2020/2021 there are no parcels currently designated as Lighting Zone 4
so there is no diagram provided for that Zone. Collectively, these diagrams along with the
Assessment Roll incorporated in this Report constitute the District Assessment Diagram for fiscal
