K Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 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. 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: )0- Zone 1: Residential Street Lighting Account 23-4-5511; > Zone 11: 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; );,. Zone L: On -street Landscaping Account 23-4-5517 For fiscal year 2020/2021 there are two new traffic signal installations, raising the total to 116 traffic signals within the City and, through a series of traffic signal upgrades to be completed tk�e 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.

Article 4 and Chapter 3 of the 1972 Act, and presented to the City Council for their consideration and approval of the proposed improvements and sen/ioaa to be provided within the District and the levy and collection of annual aneeegnnenba related thereto for fiscal year 2020/2021. If any mectimn, ouboection, eenUence, n|auee, phraae, portion, or zone of this Report is, for any neaoon, held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the Report and each oectimn, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, portion, orzone thereof, irrespective ofthe fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses, phrases, portions, or zones might subsequently bedeclared invalid orunconstitutional. This Report outlines the District structure, the improvements, and the proposed assessments to be |mv|md in connection with the benefits the properties will receive from the maintenance and servicing of the District improvements for fiscal year 2020/2021. The annual assessments to be levied on properties within the District provide a funding source for the continued operation and maintenance of etnem{ |ighdng, traffic mignm|a. aa#sb/ lighting, and landscaping improvements within various zones of benefit ("Zones") that provide special benefits to the properties within the District and each respective Zone. Each fiaoo| year. the City establishes the District's assessments based on an eoUrnabe of the costs to mmaintain, operate and service the improvements and based upon evoi|ob|m nouenuam including fund ba|anceo, general benefit contributions and additional City contributions and assessment |inn|te. The costs of the improvements and the proposed annual assessments budgeted and assessed against properties within the District may include, but are not limited hothe estimated expenditures for regular annual maintenance and repairs; incidental expenditures related to the operation and administration of the District; deficits or surpluses from prior years; revenues from other sources; and the collection of funds for operational nemen/ea or for periodic maintenance and improvement rehabilitation projects as authorized by the 1972 Act. Each parcel is aeaeaamd proportionately for only those improvements, services and expenses for which the parcel will receive special benefit. Each Zone outlined in this Report is a reflection of the improvements and services to be provided by the District for the properties that are directly associated with and benefit from those improvements. The net annual special benefit cost toprovide the improvements ineach Zone are allocated to the benefiting properties within the Zone using a weighted method of apportionment (refer to Assessment Methodology in Section ||, Method of Apportionment) that oo|nu|mteo the proportional special benefit and assessment for each parcel as compared to other properties that benefit from the District improvements and services. The word ^pmnce|.^ for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor's Parcel Number (^APy4^) by the Los Angeles County Assessor's Office. The Los Angeles County Auditor/Controller uses Assessor's Parcel Numbers and specific Fund Numbers toidentify properties tobe assessed onthe tax roll for the District assessments. At noticed annual Public Hearing, the City Council will accept all public comments and written protests no8mrd|nQ the District and the annual levy of oaoenonnenta. Based on those public comments and written protests, the City Council may order amendments to the Report or confirm the Report as submitted. Following final e9proue| of the Report and confirmation of the assessments the Council will, by Resolution, order the improvements to be made and confirm the levy and collection of assessments pursuant to the 1972 Act. The assessments as approved will be submitted to the Los Angeles County Auditor/Controller to be included on the property tax roll for each parcel. � ��.��&/�D U K�A]�� �n�' °°"��=~ I - _ pma^umSmvcew 2 Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 As required by the 1S72Act, this Engineer's Report describes the improvements to be provided, maintained and serviced by the District, an estimated budget for the District |nnprovementa, and the proposed assessments to be levied upon each assessable lot or parcel within the District for fiscal year 2D2D/2D21. While the budgets outlined |nthis Report reflect the estimated costs necessary to fully and adequately provide for the maintenance and operation ofthe improvements within the District, in some circumstances the estimated costs and associated services cannot befully funded by the combination of the current special benefit assessment revenues and the City contribution for general benefits. Therefona, in addition to the Citv'e contribution for general benefit ooa1e, 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 aaaesannen10 through a ballot proceeding conducted under the provisions of the California Constitution Article X||| D.

The purpose ofthis District imtoprovide inpart through annual assessments, funding for the ongoing operation, maintenance, and servicing of landscaping, street |ightinQ, traffic signal and safety lighting improvements and related facilities and aen/ioeo that provide special benefits to various parcels throughout the City. Improvements currently provided within the District generally include but are not limited to: Landscape improvements within the street rights -of -way including median io|ando, parhvvov nidm-pene|a, parkway a|npea, entryway features and street trees throughout the City. These landscaped improvements and areas may include but are not limited tovarious combinations of trees; turf; ground cover; shrubs, plantings and other amenities including retaining xvaUo, monuments, fencing, sidewalks, stamped concrete or pavers; irrigation and drainage systems; and related appurtenances. > Lighting facilities on the public streets m/0lin the City including street |ights, traffic signals, safety lights, andne|atadtreffionnit|gationequipmerd(ieVehide Speed Feedback Signs and Flashing Bmmnono).These lighting improvements may include, but are not limited 0ostreet lights located on the C|b/'m arterial mtpee1a. traffic signals located throughout the City and local street lights within or adjacent to the various developments and subdivisions. In accordance with the 1973Ac[ the District utilizes Zones bo address variations in the nature, |ooation, and extent of the improvements that provide special benefits to different parcels in the District. Within the boundaries ofthe District, parcels are assigned tmbenefit zones each ofwhich is associated with a set of improvements and/or type of improvements that provide special benefit to various properties within that Zone. The District currently included seven designated Zones to identify and budget for the various improvements being provided within the District and the relationship and benefits to properties within the District. These seven Zones included a citywide Landscaping Zone (Zone L); a citywide Safety Light and Traffic Signal Zone (Zone 3); and five noncontiguous Street Lighting Zones designated as Zones 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6. For fiscal year 2020/2021, a complete review and evaluation of the improvements and properties within the District has been started. As a remu|t, some modifications may be implemented in this Report and the District to clarify and more o|mady identify the special benefits to the properties within the DistMc1, the general benefits costs associated with the improvements provided. Adthis time, any changes being implemented will not facilitate an increase to the previously approved maximum assessment rates. WILLDAN - ~ Financial""°'°"°° / Page Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 For fiscal year 2020/2021 the District is comprised of the following benefit zones (Zones): ➢ Zone 1: Residential Street Lighting Account 23-4-5511; ➢ Zone 2: Commercial Street Lighting Account 23-4-5512; ➢ Zone 3: Safety Lighting and Traffic Signals Account 23-4-5513; ➢ Zone 4: Petition Street Light Installations Account 23-4-5514; ➢ Zone 5: Regional Shopping Center Street Lighting Account 23-4-5515; ➢ Zone 6: Commercial Street Lighting (West Firestone Boulevard) Account 23-4-5516; and ➢ Zone L: On -street Landscaping Account 23-4-5517 As authorized by the 1972 Act, the improvements provided by the District and associated with each Zone incorporate various landscaping or lighting improvements that are maintained and serviced for the benefit of real property within the District. The work to be performed within each respective Zone may include but is not limited to (as applicable), the personnel, materials, equipment, electricity, water, contract services, repair and rehabilitation of the improvements and incidental expenses required to operate the District and provide the improvements and services for each Zone. The improvements provided within the District and for which parcels receive special benefits are generally described in the following. The street lighting system in the City of Downey currently consists of 6,643 street lights (2,234 City -owned and 4,409 Edison -owned) and the cost of operating and maintaining the street lights including energy costs are funded in part by the District's annual assessments. Within the District there are five (5) Street Light Zones which collectively are coterminous with the City boundaries and all parcels within the City (excluding vacant land, public -use properties, rights -of -way and other easement parcels of land that are identified as exempt) are proportionately assessed for the net -special benefit costs for the operation and maintenance of these improvements. The application of these standards is used to conform to the adjacent land use grouped by individual zones and City account numbers as follows: AccountZone 1: Residential For lighting of public roadways adjacent to residential properties, including apartments and condominiums, but not including motels or hotels.

W le WILLDAN Financial Services Page 8 Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 Part 11 - Method of Apportionment 1972 Act 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 servicing 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: "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 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. A zone shall consist of all territory which will receive substantially the same degree of benefit from the improvements." The formulas used for calculating assessments and the designation of zones herein reflect the composition of parcels within the District and the improvements and activities to be provided, and have been designed to fairly apportion the cost of providing those improvements based on a determination of the proportional special benefits to each parcel, consistent with the requirements of the 1972 Act and the provisions of Proposition 218 and Article X111 D of the California Constitution. The costs of the proposed improvements for fiscal year 2020/2021 have been identified and allocated to properties within the District based on special benefit. The improvements provided by this District and for which properties are assessed are local public landscape improvements and related amenities that were installed in connection with the development of the properties or would otherwise be required for the development of properties within each respective Zone of the District. The assessments and method of apportionment is based on the premise that these improvements would otherwise not have been required without the development of those parcels within the District. Article XI I I D Section 2d defines District as follows: "District means an area determined by an agency to contain all parcels which will receive a special benefit from a proposed public improvement or property -related service", - Article XIII D Section 2i defines Special Benefit as follows: "Special benefit" means a particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real property located in the district or to the public at large. General enhancement of property value does not constitute "special benefit." WILLDAN Financial Seroc,", Page 9 Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 Article XIII D Section 4a defines proportional special benefit assessments as follows: An agency which proposes to levy an assessment shall identify all parcels which will have a special benefit conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed. The proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel shall be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of a public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided. No assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel." SpecialTIMM Benefits The ongoing maintenance of landscaped areas and tree trimming within the District provide aesthetic benefits to the properties within the District and a more pleasant environment to walk, drive, live, and work. The primary function of the landscape improvements and related amenities is to serve as an aesthetically pleasing enhancement of the immediate area for the benefit of the surrounding properties and developments for which the improvements were installed and/or were facilitated by the development or potential development of properties. These improvements are an integral part of the physical environment associated with the parcels in the City and while some of these improvements may in part be visible to properties outside the City or by the public at large, collectively if the improvements are not properly maintained, it is the developed parcels within the City and District that would be aesthetically burdened. Additionally, the street landscaping and trees serve as both a physical buffer as well as a sound reduction buffer between the roadways and the properties in the District and serve as a pleasant aesthetic amenity that enhances the approach to the parcels and overall serve as an extension of the physical attributes of the parcels assessed, similar to the private property landscaping associated with each parcel assessed. These green space areas may also provide a greater opportunity for recreation. As a 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 provide 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 reasonable to assume that these properties derive a particular and distinct benefit from the street lights and traffic signals that support the safe access to the properties and essentially all pedestrians and parking vehicles in the lit areas will, after dark, be directly associated with the assessed properties. As a result, the maintenance of these lighting improvements is a particular and distinct benefit to the properties and developments within each Zone. WILLUMN Financial 4;,,., ,, c<, , Page 10 Engineer's Annual Reporl Fiscal Year 2020/2021 In the absence of a special funding District/Zone, the City's maintenance of these improvements would for the most part, be limited to emergency tree management, weed abatement, rodent control, and erosion control services for the various landscape areas. This basic or baseline level of service would typically provide for periodic servicing of these areas on an as -needed basis. In addition to the general benefit identified aboxe, it is recognized that there are indirect or incidental general benefits to properties within the District as well amthe general public that are associated with regular landscape maintenance services, including: Minimization ofdust and debris; and Decreased potential water runoff from both properties and the landscaped areas. Although these types of benefits might best be characterized as indirect consequences of the special benefits ofthe landscape maintenance provided toassessed parcels, for the purposes of calculating proportional benefits, xve assume these types ofbenefits tnbegeneral benefits. It is apparent that trees, mhrube, p|anta, and other vegetation and gnmundcoVer reduce dua1, debria, and potential water runoff that might otherwise occur if such landscape improvements did not exist. However, it is also recognized that with the regular maintenance of the landscape innprouemnentm, the effort and cost to monitor and address these issues are reduced to isolated areas and/or less frequent servicing, and these act|v|tiem, generally represent |eoo than two percent (296)ofthe overall landscape maintenance costs. Therefore, conservatively, vvmestimate Financial Page 11 Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No. 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 that the costs associated with these indirect and incidental benefits do not exceed two percent (2%) of the annual maintenance expenditures for the landscaping improvements. Together with the baseline general benefit costs and the indirect/incidental general benefit costs identified above, it is reasonable to conclude that the overall general benefit costs associated with the various District/Zone landscape improvements is less than seven percent (7%) of the regular annual maintenance expenditures. These general benefit costs shall be excluded from the special benefit assessment funding and not assessed to the parcels within District. However, to ensure that no parcel is assessed for more than its proportional special benefit for local landscaping improvements, for fiscal year 2020/2021 the City will contribute for general benefit an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the estimated Annual Maintenance Expenditures and Administration Expenses budgeted for Zone L. In reviewing the location and extent of the specific lighting improvements (local street lighting, arterial street lighting and traffic signals) to be funded by District assessments and the proximity and relationship to properties to be assessed, like the landscaping improvements it is evident these improvements were primarily installed in connection with the development of or are improvements that would otherwise be shared by and required for the development of properties. It is also evident that the maintenance and servicing of these improvements has a direct and particular impact (special benefit) on those properties in proximity to those improvements and such improvements beyond that which is required for traffic circulation to ensure the safety and protection of the general public and property in general, has no benefit to the public at large or properties outside each respective Zone. The Lighting Zones are comprised of properties that receive a particular and direct benefit from local street lights that were installed as part of the overall development or planned development of the properties to be assessed and the street lights would for the most part would otherwise not be necessary or required without the development of those properties. Likewise, only those properties and developments that are adjacent to or in close proximity to street light improvements and benefit directly from those improvements are included in the Zones. Because these improvements are directly associated with the development of the properties within the Zone and clearly provide a special benefit to these properties that is not shared by all properties in the District, it is certainly reasonable to conclude that the maintenance and operation of these improvements is largely if not entirely a special benefit to those properties assessed. However, based on a review of the City's development and street lighting standards it is estimated that not more than thirty-five percent (35%) of the local street lights within residential areas are located on the perimeter of the developments (collector streets) that are shared by those properties and developments. It is reasonable to conclude that these particular street lights not only provide a special benefit to properties in the Zone but may also enhance general nighttime traffic safety and circulation for other properties and the general public. While these street lights are clearly the direct result of the adjacent or nearby property development, it is estimated based on general traffic circulation data for residential and collector streets, that less than half (50%) of these particular street lights and associated costs would be necessary in less concentrated development areas. Therefore, it has been determined that the general benefit related to the operation and maintenance of these particular perimeter residential street lights is no more than eighteen percent (18%) of the local streetlight operating costs (half of the approximate 35% associated with the perimeter and collector lights). *t'WILLDAN I Finamial Page 12 Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 However, toensure that noparcel is assessed for more than its proportional special benefit for local street lighting, for fiscal year 2O2O/2O21the CityU xNcontributefqrgenere|benefit amo unt equal to twenty percent (20Y6) of the estimated Annual Maintenance Expenditures and Administration Expenses budgeted for local street lighting. Likewise, street lighting on the arterial streets and other non-residential anean, it is naoaonob|e to recognize that street lights onmajor m1nyetnendinconnnneroia|anaeaproxide ameasure ofgeneral benefit to the public and to properties in general resulting from nighttime traffic safety and circulation on these primary streets. The AmericanNational Standard Practice for Roadway Lighttrafficng and various related traffic and etrmmd lighting studies suggest that over seventy-five percent (7596)ufthe street lights installed on primary streets in urban areas are directly the result of property development (both residential and non-residential development). In turn these developments increase traffic circulation and ultimately d|«fo0e the type of lighting, spacing and number of lights required and without such development, both the need and quantity of those lights would be dramatically reduced. TherefVna, based on these estimates, |t|oreasonable to conclude that nmmore than twenty-five percent (2596)ofthe arterial street lights and associated costs to service and maintain those street lights would be considered general benefit. Therefnne. based on these observations, to ensure that mo parcel is assessed for more than its proportional special benefit for street lighting, for fiscal year 202012021 the City will contribute for general benefit an amount equal to thirty percent (30%) of the combined estimated "Total Annual Maintenance Expenditures" and "Annual Administration Expenses" budgeted for arterial etnosd lighting. Similar to street lights on major thoroughfares, traffic signals are located throughout the City on streets and at intersections that provide direct access tn each property in the District. Like street lights (both arterial and |oca|), it is certainly reasonable to recognize the general benefit bothe public and properties in general associated with nighttime traffic safety and circulation associated with traffic signals. However, the number of traffic migno|o. the location of those signals and even the type of signalization is clearly the result of property development and the concentration of that development and thus the special benefit nexus to the properties within each Traffic Signal Zone. However,while these improvements are clearly required by developmentwithin the City and respective Zonee, traffic signals and safety lighting as well as vehicle speed signs and flashing beacons are inherently installed in part to control traffic, not only traffic directly associated with surround|nQ properties (special benefit) but also general City traffic that is associated with the general public and properties outside each mampart|ve Traffic Signal Zone (general benefit). General traffic circulation within the City suggests that location and extent of such improvement is directly correlated to property development and such development innne�a� traffic circulation and ultimately the spacing and number of traffic signals required to ensure proper traffic circulation to and from those properties and the overall need for such public improvements is dramatically reduced in areas with less property development. However, to ensure that no parcel is assessed for more than its proportional special benefit for traffic signal improvements, for fiscal year 2D2D/2O21the City will contribute for general benefit anamount equal tmfifty percent (5O96)ofthe estimated Annual Maintenance Expenditures and Administration Expenses budgeted within Zone 3. Every parcel within the District ioassigned a land uemdaeaifioaton b�s�d on available parcel information obtained from the County Assessor's Office. To aemeeo benefits equitably is necessary to calculate each property's relative share of the special benefits conferred by the funded improvements and service. The method of apportionment originally developed for this DA iWWILLI Downey Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District No, 121 Engineer's Annual Report Fiscal Year 2020/2021 District was based on assessment formulas appropriate for the various land uses, identifiable property characteristicsand improvements within the District and utilizes the number of sizes -.• for developed non-residential properties. parcel use and size are the • - t ••- - i - • •' • •. • • • •- Estimated Assessment and Apportionments rfAccount Direct assessments in Zone 1 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 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.

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 funding gap may be addressed by an additional City contribution, reductions in service and service expenses, or a combination of the two. These adjustments to the Special Benefit Expenses result in the net special benefit amount to be assessed "Balance to Levy"; The amount identified as the "Balance to Levy" is divided by the total number of EBUs of parcels that benefit to establish the "Assessment Rates" or "Assessment per EBU" for the fiscal year. This Rate is then applied back to each parcel's individual EBU to calculate the parcel's proportionate special benefit and assessment for the improvements.
