EXHIBIT "A"
The City's Lighting Maintenance District is subject to the provisions of Section
18000 et seq. (Street Lighting Act of 1919) of the Streets and Highways Code.
Section 18062 regarding the time period of "improvement" allows the City Council to
extend/postpone the date of ending for a reasonable time upon good and sufficient
reason.
According to Section 18007, "improvement" and any of its variants includes the
maintenance or servicing, or both, of all or part of anyone or more street lighting
systems. "Maintenance" and any of its variants, according to Section 18007.5,
includes the replacement of any obsolete equipment with the new modern equipment
necessary for an adequate street lighting system or systems. "Service" and any of
its variants, according to Section 18006, means and includes the furnishing of
electric current or energy, gas, or other illuminating agent to all or part of any
street lighting system.
Since,
1. there Is a need to continue the furnishing, maintaining, and servIcIng
of the street lighting systems for a reasonable time period, and
2. there is a need to recover the annual costs and expenses of furnishing,
maintaining, and servicing of the street lighting systems on an
ongoing basis, and
3. there is an ongoing need to allow annexation of additional areas with
new lighting improvements to the Street Lighting Maintenance District,
and
4. the initial reasonable time period of 20 years, as set by Resolution
No. 4173, for furnishing, maintaining, and servicing the street
lighting systems commenced July I, 1970, and ends June 30, 1990,
it appears that a reasonable time of extension/postponement of the date of ending
would be another 20 years to June 30, 2010. This conclusion is based upon the
aforementioned sections of the Streets and Highways Code, the foregoing stated good
and sufficient reasons, and the fact that the Streets and Highways Code does not
1 imit the time period of extension/postponement if the reasons therefor are good and
sufficient.
