Annual Report
85-PD
Fiscal Year ]989/90
Authority For Report
This report for the ]989/90 fiscal year is prepared pursuant to the order of
the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga and in compliance with the
requirements of Article 4, Chapter ], Landscape and Lighting Act of ]972,
being Division ]5, Section 22500 of the Streets and Highways Code.
Provisions for this annual assessment are included in Chapter 3 of the
'Landscaping and Lighting Act of ]972.
The purpose of this report is to set forth findings and the assessment
analysis for the annual levy of assessments for the Park and Recreation
Improvement District No. 85-PD, thereafter referred to as "the District".
This District, using direct benefit assessments, has been created to provide
funds to finance the cost of construction, maintenance, operation and debt
payment of Heritage Community Park and Red Hill Community Park in the City
of Rancho Cucamonga.
Findings
Section 22573, Landscaping and Lighting Act of ]972, requires assessments to
be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. The
section states:
"The net amount to be assessed upon lands
within an assessment district may be ap-
portioned by any formula or method which
fairly distributes the net .amount among all
assessable lots or parceis in proportion to
the estimated benefits to be received by each
such lot or parcel from the improvements."
The means of determining whether or not a parcel will benefit from the
improvements is contained in the Improvement Act of ]911 {Division 7,
commencing with Section 5000 of the Streets and Highways Code, State of
California).
The ]972 Act also provides for the classification of various areas within an
assessment district into benefit areas where, by reason of variations in the
nature, location, and extent of the improvements, the various areas will
receive during differing degrees of benefit from the improvements.
Benefiting areas consist of all territory receiving substantially the same
degree of benefit from the improvements and may consist of contiguous or
noncontiguous areas.
As the assessments are levied on the basis of benefit, they are considered a
user's fee, not a tax; and, therefore, are not governed by Article XIIIA.
Properties owned by public agencies, such as a city, county, state, or the
federal government, are not assessable without the approval of the
particular agency and, normally, are not assessed. Certain other parcels
used for railroad mainline right-of-way, public utility transmission right
of-way, common areas, and non-profit organizations (i.e. churches, clubs)
are also exempt from assessment. '
The assessment for mobile home parks will be based upon underlying lot
acreage.

Method of Spread
The Landscaping and Lighting Act of ]972 indicates that assessments may be
apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes costs among
all lots or parcels within the District in proportion to the estimated
benefits received.
A. Definitions
The District is divided into three categories for the purpose of
determining the assessments as follows:
Category A - includes parcels based on the number of existing
residential units within certain ranges of parcel size.
Category B - includes all parcels not defined in Category A
or Category C.
Resolution No. 89-291
Page 7
Category C - includes exempt parcels. Exempt parcels were
discovered by searching the County Assessor's computer tapes
for those parcels that are listed as exempt by the Assessor
or which have an assessed value of less than $500. In
conducting the search, several parcels were included as
exempt that show parcel sizes in excess of ].5 acres and type
codes of, for example, residential or agriculture. These
parcels were added back into the rolls and assessed.
B. Formula
The assessment formula is based on actual land use information
contained in the current San Bernardino Assessor's computer files
and Assessor's parcel maps.
Category A:
All parcels containing existing residential dwelling units
and meeting the following conditions:
Number of Existing Res.
Parcel Size Range Dwellinq Units/Parcel
Less than ].5 acres and ] or more dwelling units
.5! to 3.5 acres and 2 or more dwelling units
3.5] to 7.0 acres and 4 or more dwelling units
7.0! to ]4.0 acres and 8 or more dwelling units
]4.0! to 25.0 acres and 15 or more dwelling units
25.0! acre & larger and 26 or more dwelling units
Category A is based on the number of existing residential units. The
actual assessment for Bond Debt Service per existing residential
dwelling unit may decrease each year as more residential units are
built within the improvement district. Maintenance costs, however, are
expected to increase annually and~ill somewhat offset the anticipated
decrease in assessments due to'new development.
Category B:
Alt parcels not defined in Category A or Category C.
Category C:
All exempt parcels as defined below:
all properties currently tax exempt;
2 all public ownerships;
3 railroad mainline rights-of-way;
4 major utility transmission rights-of-way;
5 mineral rights;
6 parcels so small they currently cannot be built upon;
7 all normally assessable parcels within an assessed
valuation of less than $500 and ].5 acres or less; and
