Downtown Fresno PBID Management District Plan
June 24, 2022 ii
I. OVERVIEW
Developed by a growing coalition of property owners, the Downtown Fresno Property and Business
Improvement District (DFPBID) is a benefit assessment district whose main goal is to provide
improvements and activities which constitute and convey a special benefit to assessed parcels. This
approach has been used successfully in other cities throughout the country to provide special benefits
to property owners, namely increased sales, attraction of new tenants, increased occupancies, and
specifically increased property values. As required by state law, property owners have created this
Management District Plan (Plan) to renew the DFPBID.
Location: The DFPBID includes parcels in the portion of Downtown Fresno shown on the map
in Section V.
Purpose: The purpose of the DFPBID is to provide activities and improvements which constitute
and convey a special benefit to assessed parcels. The DFPBID will provide Economic
Enhancements, Clean & Safe Initiatives, Fulton Zone Activation, and related
Management and Administration directly and only to assessed parcels within its
boundaries.
Budget: The DFPBID annual assessment budget for the initial year of its ten (10) year operation
is anticipated to be $778,672.90. The annual budget may be subject to an increase in
assessment rates of no more than three percent (3%) per year. The assessment funds will
be supplemented by non -assessment funds (such as grants and event income), so that the
total budget for the initial year is estimated at $812,961.28.
Cost: The annual cost to the parcel owner varies based on four factors: parcel type, benefit
zone, parcel size, and building size. Parking refers to any parking garage or parking
garage contained within or underneath of a building. The initial annual assessment
rates are shown below. Assessment rates may be subject to an increase of no more
than three percent (3%) per year as shown in Appendix 1.

Renewal: DFPBID renewal requires submittal of petitions from property owners representing
more than 50% of the total assessment. The "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" (also
known as Proposition 218) requires a ballot vote in which more than 50% of the
ballots received, weighted by assessment, be in support of the DFPBID renewal.

Duration: The renewed DFPBID will have a ten (10)-year-life starting January 1, 2023 through
December 31, 2032. Near the expiration of the DFPBID, the petition, ballot, and City
Council hearing process must be repeated for the DFPBID to be renewed.
Management: The Downtown Fresno Association will continue to serve as the Owners' Association
to provide improvements and activities for the DFPBID. The Owners' Association is
charged with managing funds in accordance with this Plan, and must submit an annual
report to the City.

I. IMPETUS
There are several reasons why now is the time to renew the DFPBID. The most compelling reasons
are as follows.
1. The Need to be Proactive in Determining the Future of Downtown Fresno.
In order to protect their investment, parcel owners must be partners in the process that determines
the level and frequency of services, and how new improvements and development projects are
implemented. The DFPBID will allow these owners to continue to lead and shape future services
and improvements through the DFPBID.
2. The Need to Attract New Business and Investment Throughout Downtown Fresno.
If Downtown Fresno is to compete as a successful commercial district it must develop its own
well -financed, proactive strategy to retain businesses and tenants as well as attract new business
and investment. The DFPBID provides the financial resources to develop and implement a
focused strategy that will work to prevent and fill vacancies and attract new tenants to all areas of
Downtown Fresno.
3. An Opportunity to Create a Private/Public Partnership with a Unified Voice for
Downtown Fresno.
Because parcel owners would be investing financial resources through the DFPBID, they will be
looked upon as a strong partner in negotiations with the City. This partnership will have the ability
to leverage the parcel owner's investment with additional public investment in Downtown Fresno.
4. An Opportunity to Establish Private Sector Management and Accountability.
A non-profit, private organization formed for the sole purpose of improving Downtown Fresno
will continue to manage the services provided and the DFPBID. Annual DFPBID work plans
and budgets are developed by a board composed of stakeholders that own property in the
Downtown Fresno. Improvements and activities provided by the DFPBID are subject to private
sector performance standards, controls, and accountability.

II. BACKGROUND
The International Downtown Association estimates that more than 1,500 Property and Business
Improvement Districts (PBIDs) currently operate throughout the United States and Canada. PBIDs are
a time -tested tool for property owners who wish to come together and obtain collective services which
benefit their properties.
PBIDs provide supplemental services in addition to those provided by local government. They may
also finance physical and capital improvements. These improvements and activities are concentrated
within a distinct geographic area and are funded by a special parcel assessment. Services and
improvements are only provided to those who pay the assessment.
Although funds are collected by the local government, they are then directed to a private nonprofit.
The nonprofit implements services and provides day-to-day oversight. The nonprofit is managed by
a Board of Directors representing those who pay the assessment, to help ensure the services meet the
needs of property owners and are responsive to changing conditions within the PBID.
PBIDs all over the globe have been proven to work by providing services that improve the overall
viability of commercial districts, resulting in higher property values, lease rates, occupancy rates, and
sales volumes.
The DFPBID will be renewed pursuant to a state law that took effect in January of 1995. The "Property
and Business Improvement District Law of 1994," which was signed into law by Governor Pete Wilson,
ushered in a new generation of Property and Business Improvement Districts in California. Key
provisions of the law include:
➢ Allows a wide variety of services which are tailored to meet specific needs of assessed
properties in each individual PBID;
➢ Requires property owner input and support throughout the renewal process;
➢ Requires written support on both a petition and ballot from property owners paying
50% of proposed assessments;
➢ Allows for a designated, private nonprofit corporation to manage funds and
implement programs, with oversight from property owners and the City;
➢ Requires limits for assessment rates to ensure that they do not exceed the amount
owners are willing to pay; and
➢ Requires the PBID be renewed after a certain time period, making it accountable to
property owners.
The "Property and Business Improvement Business District Law of 1994" is provided in Appendix 2
of this document.

V. SERVICE PLAN & BUDGET
A. Establishment
Property and business owners in Downtown Fresno have been concerned about the need for
coordinated supplemental services in the area for several years. City services and efforts in the area
have been welcomed, but limited resources have not allowed for a more comprehensive approach to
managing the commercial area.
A service plan to provide special benefits to assessed properties was developed using several methods.
A series of property owner meetings, a survey of property owners, an analysis of current property
conditions and needs were all conducted. The primary needs identified were: economic
enhancements, clean and safe initiatives, Fulton Zone activation, and related administration. To meet
those needs, the DFPBID will continue to provide Economic Enhancements, Clean & Safe, and
Fulton Zone Activation to assessed parcels within its boundaries.
B. Improvements and Activities
The DFPBID will provide supplemental improvements and activities that are above and beyond those
provided by the City and other government agencies. None of the services to be provided by the
DFPBID are provided by the City or other government agencies. The improvements and activities
will be provided directly and only to assessed parcels; they will not be provided to parcels that are not
assessed. Each and every service is unique to the DFPBID, thus the benefits provided are particular
and distinct to each assessed parcel.
1. Economic Enhancements
Economic enhancement programs and incentives are intended to attract, grow and incubate new
businesses. They may include, but are not limited to, marketing and promotions to improve Downtown's
image and invite consumers to Downtown, special events to attract customers, and business attraction
and retention efforts. In addition, programs may be developed to assist in facade improvements for
property owners within the district, and business recruitment incentive programs. These services will be
provided to parcels in all three zones.
2. Clean & Safe
Clean & safe initiatives may include, but are not limited to, ambassador services and private security
patrols to improve both reality and perception of public safety, and streetscape and signage to make
Downtown more attractive. Three categories of ambassador services are provided: clean, safety, and
hospitality. Hospitality ambassadors will be provided in all three zones. Clean and safety ambassadors
will be provided to parcels in all zones.
3. Fulton Zone Activation
This program includes providing coordinated programming of the Fulton Zone (benefit zone 3) with
events, entertainment, business recruitment and retention, and other activities as needed. If necessary, a
Fulton Zone Manager may be assigned to oversee programming and assist in business recruitment and
retention in the Fulton Zone. The manager will coordinate monthly business education classes in
conjunction with Fresno State University. Due to the location of the Fulton Zone, this service will be
provided in Zone 3 only.

F Rev
4. Management & Administration
The administration portion of the budget may be utilized for administrative costs associated with
providing the services. Those costs may include rent, telephone charges, legal fees, accounting fees,
postage, administrative staff, insurance, and other general office expenses.
5. Contingency / Reserve
The budget also includes a prudent fiscal reserve. Changes in data, lower than anticipated collections,
higher than expected program costs, and other issues may change the revenue and expenses. In order to
buffer the organization for unexpected changes in revenue, and/or allow the Owners' Association to
fund other overhead or renewal costs, the reserve is included as a budget item. Should contingency funds
remain at the expiration of the DFPBID, and property owners wish to renew the DFPBID, the remaining
funds may be used for the costs of renewal.
The City and County of Fresno will charge the DFPBID Owners' Association a specific fee for the
collection process. The fee for collection is forecasted to be approximately $5,000.
C. Services by Zone
Because each zone has particular needs, the District's services vary across the zones.

D. Annual Budget
A projected ten (10)-year budget for the DFPBID is provided below. The overall budget shall remain
consistent with this Plan. In the event of a legal challenge, assessment funds may be used to defend
the DFPBID. The annual budget is based on the following assumptions and guidelines:
1. The cost of providing improvements and activities may vary depending upon the market cost for
those improvements and activities. Expenditures may require adjustment up or down to continue
the intended level of improvements and activities. Funds not spent in any given year may be
rolled over to the next year.
2. The assessment rate may be subject to annual increases that will not exceed three percent (3%)
per year. Increases will be determined by the Downtown Fresno Association and will vary each
year. The projections below illustrate the maximum annual three percent (3%) increase for all
budget items.
3. The Downtown Fresno Association shall annually have the ability to re -allocate up to twenty
percent (20%) of the budget allocation by line item within the Economic Enhancements, Clean
& Safe, and Fulton Zone Activation budget categories. The Downtown Fresno Association shall
also have the ability to annually re -allocate up to fifteen percent (15%) of the budget allocation

by line item within the Management & Administration, and Contingency/Reserve budget
categories. Any change will be submitted by the Downtown Fresno Association and submitted
with the Annual Report. Funds may only be spent on improvements and activities provided in
the benefit zone from which the funds were derived. Budgets for each zone can be moved
between categories, but overall zone budgets cannot be moved between zones.
4. Funds not spent in any given year may be rolled over to the next year.
E. Service Budget
The total improvement and activity budget for 2023 that is funded by property assessments is
$778,672.90. In addition to the assessment revenue, the programs will be supplemented by non -
assessment funds. The total of non -assessment funds, and the determination of special and general
benefit, is included in the Engineer's Report. The total of assessment and non -assessment funds is
provided in Appendix 5. Below is an illustration of the estimated total assessment budget allocations
for each budget category for the initial year of renewal in the ten (10) year life of the DFPBID. Non -
assessment funds may be shifted between budget categories as needed by the Downtown Fresno
Association's Board.

VI. GOVERNANCE
A. Owners' Association
The DFPBID shall be governed by the Downtown Fresno Association, with oversight from the
Fresno City Council. The Downtown Fresno Association shall serve as the Owners' Association
described in the Streets and Highways Code §36612. The Board of Directors of the Downtown
Fresno Association and its staff are charged with the day-to-day operations of the DFPBID.
A majority of the Board of Directors of the Downtown Fresno Association must be parcel owners
paying the assessment. In addition, the Board of Directors must represent a variety of interests within
the DFPBID and respond to the needs of all properties within the DFPBID.
B. Brown Act & Public Records Act Compliance
An Owners' Association is a private entity and may not be considered a public entity for any purpose,
nor may its board members or staff be considered to be public officials for any purpose. The Owners'
Association is, however, subject to government regulations relating to transparency, namely the Ralph
M. Brown Act and the California Public Records Act. These regulations are designed to promote
public accountability. The Owners' Association must act as a legislative body under the Ralph M.
Brown Act (Government Code 554950 et seq.). Thus, meetings of the Downtown Fresno Association
Board of Directors and certain committees must be held in compliance with the public notice and
other requirements of the Brown Act. The Owners' Association is also subject to the record keeping
and disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act.
C. Annual Report
The Downtown Fresno Association shall present an annual report at the end of each year of operation
to the City Council pursuant to Streets and Highways Code §36650 (see Appendix 2). The annual
report is a prospective report for the upcoming year and must include:
1. Any proposed changes in the boundaries of the DFPBID or in any benefit zones or classification
of property within the district;
2. The improvements, maintenance, and activities to be provided for that fiscal year;
3. The estimated cost of providing the improvements, maintenance, and activities to be provided
for that fiscal year;
4. The method and basis of levying the assessment in sufficient detail to allow each real property
owner to estimate the amount of the assessment to be levied against his or her property for that
fiscal year;
5. The estimated amount of any surplus or deficit revenues to be carried over from a previous fiscal
year; and
6. The estimated amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments
levied pursuant to this Plan.

VII. ENGINEER'S REPORT
The DFPBID's parcel assessments will be imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII
D of the California Constitution. Article XIII D provides that "only special benefits are assessable,"'
and requires the City to "separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel."'
Special benefits are a "particular and distinct benefit over and above general benefits conferred on real
property located in the district or to the public -at -large."' Conversely, a general benefit is "conferred
on real property located in the district or to the public-at-large.i' Assessment law also mandates that
"no assessment shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional
special benefit conferred on that parcel."'
The Engineer determined the total cost of the improvements and activities, quantified the general
benefit accruing to the public -at -large and non -assessed parcels adjacent to and within the DFPBID,
and separated that amount from the special benefit accruing to the assessed parcels. Then, the
Engineer determined the proportional special benefit derived by each parcel and allocated the special
benefit value of the improvements and activities accordingly. The Engineer's determinations and
detailed calculations are summarized in this report.
A. Separation of General and Special Benefits
Each of the improvements and activities, and the associated costs and assessments within the
DFPBID, were reviewed, identified, and allocated based on special and general benefits pursuant to
Article XIII D of the California Constitution. The assessment has been apportioned based on the
proportional special benefits conferred to the assessed parcels located within the DFPBID boundaries
as determined below.
1. General Benefits
Unlike special benefits, which are conferred directly and only upon assessed parcels, a general benefit
is conferred on the general public or non -assessed parcels. Existing City and other public services,
which are provided to every person and parcel, everywhere within the City, are an example of a general
benefit. Although the DFPBID's boundaries have been narrowly drawn, programs have been
carefully designed to provide special benefits, and activities and improvements will only be provided
directly to assessed parcels, it is acknowledged that there will be general benefits as a result of the
DFPBID's activities and improvements.
The California Constitution mandates that "only special benefits are assessable, and an agency shall
separate the general benefits from the special benefits.". "Generally, this separation and quantification
of general and special benefits must be accomplished by apportioning the cost of a service or
improvement between the two and assessing property owners only for the portion of the cost
representing special benefits."' The first step that must be undertaken to separate general and special
benefits provided by the DFPBID's activities and improvements is to identify and quantify the general

benefits. There are two bodies who can receive general benefits: the public -at -large within the
DFPBID, and non -assessed parcels within and surrounding the DFPBID.
a. General Benefit to the Public-atlar
Although the activities and improvements are narrowly designed and carefully implemented to
specially benefit the assessed parcels, and only provided directly to assessed parcels, they will generate
a general benefit to the public -at -large within the DFPBID. State law indicates that "Activities
undertaken for the purpose of conferring special benefits upon property to be assessed inherently
produce incidental or collateral effects that benefit property or persons not assessed."' However, "the
mere fact that special benefits produce incidental or collateral effects that benefit property or persons
not assessed does not convert any portion of those special benefits or their incidental or collateral
effects into general benefits."' Further, "the value of any incidental or collateral effects that arise from
the improvements, maintenance or activities of a property -based district and that benefit property or
persons not assessed shall not be deducted from the entirety of the cost of any special benefit or affect
the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel.i10 Thus, although there may be
some incidental benefit to persons engaged in business on the assessed parcels, that incidental benefit
is not considered general benefit because it is inherently produced by activities and improvements that
provide special benefits to the assessed parcels. There is, however, a general benefit to persons not
engaged in business on the assessed parcels.
Intercept surveys conducted in similar districts have found that approximately 97.3% of pedestrian
traffic within PBID boundaries is engaged in business on assessed parcels, while the remaining
approximately 2.7% is simply passing through and not engaging in business on the assessed parcels"
The 2.7% of traffic passing through does not have any connection to the assessed parcels, and
therefore does not represent a special benefit to the assessed parcels. The 2.7% will, however, receive
a derivative and indirect general benefit as a result of the activities and improvements being provided
in the DFPBID. Therefore, it is estimated that 2.7% of the benefit created by the DFPBID's services
is general benefit provided to the public -at -large. To ensure that the assessment dollars do not fund
general benefits to the public -at -large, that portion of the cost of activities and improvements will be
paid for with funds not obtained through assessments. Using the 2.7% figure, based on the initial year
activity and improvement budget, the value of this general benefit to the public -at -large is $21,949.95
($812,961.28*0.027).
b. Qcneral Benefit to Non -Assessed Parcels
Although they are only provided directly to the assessed parcels, the DFPBID's activities and
improvements may also confer general benefits upon non -assessed parcels within and surrounding
the DFPBID. One study examining property values in PBID areas found "no evidence of spill -over
impacts (either good or bad) on commercial properties located just outside the BID's boundaries;""
however, the California Court of Appeals has stated that "services specifically intended for assessed

�� Ili u
parcels concomitantly confer collateral general benefits to surrounding properties.i13 It is reasonable
to conclude that activities and improvements within the DFPBID will have an incidental impact on
non -assessed parcels surrounding or within the DFPBID boundaries. Although the legislature has
indicated that "the value of any incidental or collateral effects that arise from the improvements,
maintenance, or activities of a property -based district and that benefit property or persons not assessed
shall not be deducted from the entirety of the cost of any special benefit,i14 the California Court of
Appeals has noted that "the characterization of a benefit may depend on whether the parcel receives
a direct advantage from the improvement... or receives an indirect, derivative advantage resulting from
the overall public benefits of the improvement. )15 Those derivative and indirect impacts are
considered general benefits and will be quantified and separated.
In this Engineer's opinion, because activities and improvements are provided only within the DFPBID
and on its perimeter, parcels separated from the DFPBID by either at least one intervening parcel or
an impassable physical barrier such as a wall, freeway, or ditch will not receive spill -over benefits.
Parcels separated from the DFPBID will not benefit because they are physically removed from the
actual location of activities and improvements provided, and do not face serviced parcels. Therefore,
this analysis considers non -assessed parcels within the DFPBID's boundaries and surrounding parcels
that are immediately adjacent to and accessible from the DFPBID's boundaries.
The total DFPBID activity and improvement budget for the first year is $812,961.28. After reducing
the activity and improvement budget by the general benefit to the public -at -large ($21,949.95), the
remaining benefit to parcels is $791,011.33. This benefit has been distributed to both assessed and
non -assessed parcels using the following methodology. The general benefit to the public -at -large has
been proportionally allocated to the DFPBID's activity and improvement categories as shown in the
following table.

To determine the general benefit to parcels, the Engineer assigned each parcel group a benefit factor,
determined the appropriate parcel characteristic to use in the calculation, multiplied the benefit factor
by the benefit characteristic to determine the benefit units attributable to each parcel group, and

L Benefit Factors
All parcels within and adjacent to the DFPBID have been assigned a benefit factor to mathematically
represent the proportional special and general benefit and quantify the value of each. The
determination of benefit factors for each type of activity and improvement follows.
Improvements
The improvements to be provided by the DFPBID provide two types of special benefits:
• Improvement — The primary special benefit provided by the DFPBID's improvements is the
improvements themselves, which are available to tenants and customers of assessed parcels.
• Proximity — The DFPBID's improvements also provide the special benefit of being in
proximity to a parcel that is benefitting from an improvement, as parcels will enjoy the
spillover benefits of neighboring parcels utilizing the improvements.
The majority of the benefit is the improvements themselves; proximity is a lesser benefit. It is this
Engineer's estimation that eighty-five percent (85%) of the special benefit from the DFPBID's
improvements is the improvement, while the proximity special benefit accounts for fifteen percent
(15%) of the special benefit. Assessed parcels will receive both benefits; non -assessed parcels within
and adjacent to the DFPBID will not be directly improved, and therefore only receive the general
benefit of proximity.
Tangible Activities
The tangible activities (those that are physically provided via a person or people working throughout
the district) to be provided by the DFPBID generate three types of special benefits:
• Service — The primary special benefit provided by the DFPBID's physical activities is the actual
service. That is, the actual cleanliness and safety created by security and maintenance clean
and safe personnel.
■ Presence — The DFPBID's physical activities also provide the special benefit of an individual's
presence on the assessed parcel as the activities are provided, which can have a deterrent effect
and creates a positive impression that the area is well -maintained and safe. The "Disneyland
effect" is the benefit the parcels receive from the observation that parcels are being
maintained. There are studies which link the perception of cleanliness to a perception of
increased security.
• Proximity — The DFPBID's physical activities also provide the special benefit of being in
proximity to a cleaner, safer parcel. Neighboring parcels enjoy the spillover benefits of being
adjacent to increased safety and cleanliness.
The majority of the benefit received by the parcels is the results of the DFPBID's services; onsite
presence and proximity are lesser benefits. It is this Engineer's estimation that seventy-five percent
(75%) of the special benefit from the DFPBID's physical activities is the service, while the presence
and proximity benefits each account for twelve and one-half percent (12.5% presence, 12.5%
proximity) of the special benefit. Assessed parcels will receive all three benefits; non -assessed parcels
within and adjacent to the District will not be directly serviced and therefore only receive the general
benefit of proximity.
Intangible Activities

WN
June 24, 2022 TOWN
Page 17
FRS HO
Some of the DFPBID's activities, such as marketing, are distinct in that they are not provided to a
targeted area within the DFPBID, rather they are provided via internet, radio, and other forms of
media and targeted at an audience outside the DFPBID in an effort to bring the audience into the
DFPBID. These activities provide two types of special benefits:
Direct Exposure — The primary special benefit provided by the DFPBID's intangible activities
is exposure. The intangible activities increase awareness of the DFPBID as a commercial and
business destination and lead to increased patronage.
Incidental Exposure — The DFPBID's intangible activities will also have a secondary special
benefit of incidental exposure, such as word-of-mouth exposure, that results from the direct
exposure and increases awareness of the DFPBID as a commercial and business destination.
The majority of the benefit from these activities is the direct exposure; the incidental exposure is a
lesser benefit. It is this Engineer's estimation that ninety percent (90%) of the special benefit from
the intangible activities is direct exposure, while ten percent (10%) is incidental exposure. Assessed
parcels will receive both as special benefits; non -assessed parcels within and adjacent to the DFPBID
will not be directly marketed and therefore only receive the general benefit of incidental exposure.
Factors Determined
Based on the foregoing analysis, all assessed parcels within the DFPBID specially benefit from the
DFPBID's activities and improvements, and have been assigned a benefit factor of 1.0. Parcels that
are not assessed have been assigned benefit factors based on the portion of the benefit they will
receive, as described above. The non -assessed parcels will benefit from fifteen percent (151/6) of the
improvements, twelve and one-half percent (12.5%) of the tangible activities, and ten percent (10%)
of the intangible activities; therefore, they have been assigned benefit factors of 0.15, 0.125, and 0.10
respectively.
ii. Non -Assessed Benefit Characteristics
There are two types of parcels that are not assessed; those within the DFPBID and those immediately
adjacent to and accessible from the DFPBID. Because they generally benefit in a differing manner,
distinct parcel characteristics are used to quantify the general benefit to each type.
• Inside — Non -assessed parcels inside of the DFPBID are surrounded by parcels that are
assessed and receiving the full special benefits; they will, therefore, receive the general benefit
of proximity. These parcels are impacted on more than one side by the DFPBID's activities
and improvements and activities and improvements are provided all around them. Because
these parcels are surrounded by specially benefitted parcels, it is appropriate that parcel square
footage be used to measure the general benefit they receive.
• Adjacent — Adjacent parcels are those that are immediately adjacent to or directly across the
street from specially benefitted parcels, and accessible from specially benefitted parcels. These
parcels generally benefit differently than those inside the DFPBID, because these parcels are
adjacent to, rather than surrounded by, specially benefitted parcels. Square footage is not an
appropriate measure of benefit to these parcels. Because the parcels are not surrounded by
serviced parcels, a long, shallow parcel with the same square footage as a deep, narrow parcel
will receive a different level of general benefit. Likewise, two parcels with the same depth but
a different width adjacent to serviced parcels will benefit differently. To account for this
difference, it is appropriate that parcel linear frontage be used to measure the general benefit
the adjacent parcels receive. The linear footage is the length of parcels fronting public streets.

The amount listed for "assessed linear feet" is the value for all assessed parcels within the
PBID and the amount listed for "non -assessed linear feet" is the value for all non -assessed
parcels adjacent to the district boundary.
iii. Calculations
To quantify and separate the general benefit to non -assessed parcels, the following calculations were
undertaken for each budget category.
1. The total service budget for each category was determined and the amount of general
benefit to the public -at -large was subtracted from the category budget.
2. The benefit factor applicable to each activity or improvement was multiplied by the
parcel square footage or linear frontage of assessed and non -assessed parcels, to
determine the number of benefit units received by each parcel group.
3. The benefit units for all parcel groups were summed, and the percentage of benefit
units attributable to each parcel group was calculated.
4. The total remaining activity and improvement budget, less the amount already
determined to be general benefit to the public -at -large, was allocated to general and
special benefit categories for each parcel group using the calculated benefit percent
and applicable benefit characteristic methodology.
5. The special and general benefit resulting from the administration and contingency /
reserve portions of the budget were determined based on the proportional allocation
of benefits derived from activities and improvements.

The clean and safe budget, minus the amount of general benefit to the public -at -large, is $ $277,726.69.

Fulton Zone Activation
This program includes providing coordinated programming of the Fulton Zone (Zone 3) with events,
entertainment and other activities. A dedicated Fulton Zone Manager may be provided to oversee
programming and assist in business recruitment and retention in the Fulton Zone. The entire Fulton
Zone Activation portion of the budget is dedicated to business recruitment and retention and special
events specifically within the Fulton Zone. This service is completely localized to Zone 3 parcels, and
will impact those parcels in a manner that is particular and distinct. Zone 3 is surrounded by assessed

parcels, there are no adjacent or inside non -assessed parcels to receive general benefits from this
service. Thus, it is this Engineer's professional estimation that the Fulton Zone Activation services
do not create a general benefit to non -assessed parcels. However, there is general benefit to the public -
at -large, since there is pedestrian traffic within the DFPBID boundaries that is simply passing through
and not engaging in business at assessed parcels. Due to the fact that parcels in Zone 3 will solely
receive the Fulton Zone Activation services, they will be assessed the cost for that additional service.
The Fulton Zone Activation budget, minus the amount of general benefit to the public -at -large, is
$46,720.37 . The calculations below determine the amount of general benefit to non -assessed parcels
within the DFPBID.

C. Non -Assessment Funding
The programs funded by the DFPBID receive additional non -assessment funding in the form of
grants, corporate sponsorships, event income, and other miscellaneous funds. These funding sources
are anticipated to equal or exceed the amount of general benefit conferred annually by the DFPBID's
activities and improvements, $34,288.38. These non -assessment funds will be used to pay for the
general benefit provided by the DFPBID's activities and improvements, ensuring that parcel
assessments will only be used to provide special benefits and "any additional costs of providing general
benefits [are] not included in the amounts assessed.""
2. Special Benefit
The activities and improvements to be provided by the DFPBID constitute and convey special
benefits directly to the assessed parcels. Assessment law requires that "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."" Further, "no assessment
shall be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit
conferred on that parcel."18 Special benefit "includes incidental or collateral effects that arise from
the improvements, maintenance, or activities of property -based districts even if those incidental or
collateral effects benefit property or persons not assessed.""

To determine the total special benefit value to be conveyed to the assessed parcels, we deduct the
general benefit value ($34,288.38) from the total value of the activities and improvements
($812,961.28). The remaining $778,672.90 is considered the special benefit to assessed parcels (the
"Total Assessment"). The Total Assessment represents the total value of the special benefit to be
provided by the activities and improvements. The Total Assessment has been proportionally divided
among the assessed parcels so that no assessment exceeds the reasonable cost of the proportional
special benefit conferred on a parcel. The assessment rate has been designed to ensure that "properties
that receive the same proportionate special benefit pay the same assessment."20

A. Assessment Methodology
1. Base Formula
Each parcel will be assessed based on proportional special benefits received. The variables used for
the annual assessment formula are parcel size, building size, parcel type, and benefit zone. These
variables are all appropriate measures of the proportional special benefit because the need for services,
level of services, and quantity of services are all relative to these variables; thus the special benefit
provided to each parcel by the services can be proportionally measured using these variables.
Determination of Assessment Rates
"Because not all parcels in the district are identical in size... some will receive more special benefit
than others."" Each of the variables used relates directly to the service level and special benefit
provided to each parcel. Parcel square footage is the size of the parcel, measured in square feet. Size
is an appropriate measure of proportional special benefit because it relates directly to the quantity of
services provided to the parcel, the highest and best use of a parcel, and reflects the long-term value
implications of the DFPBID. The larger a parcel, the more services and benefit the parcel will receive.
Because not all parcels in the DFPBID are identical in use, some will receive more special benefit than
others. For example, a commercial parcel will benefit to a greater degree than a residential use parcel,
because it will enjoy the benefits of increased commerce resulting from the services. Further detail
on the benefit to each parcel type is in the following pages. To determine the assessment rates, the
assessed parcels were classified by the estimated benefit each type of parcel receives, the estimated
special benefit value of the activities and improvements provided to each type was determined based

FRS Nd
on approximate cost of service provision, and an assessment rate that is proportional to the estimated
proportional benefit received by each parcel type was determined.
To determine the assessment rates, the special benefit value was divided by the total assessable parcel
square footage per zone, as shown in the tables below.
Parcel Type
Parcel types were categorized based on their typical amount of foot and vehicle traffic on the various
parcels. Commercial use and parking parcels will receive the highest level of services because their
owners aim to benefit from increased customers or increased use by visitors and receive the highest
volume of foot and vehicle traffic. However, parcels with low traffic, such as private tax-exempt
parcels, will receive a lower level of services, because their owners primarily aim to benefit from
increased cleanliness and security and receive the lowest level of foot and vehicle traffic. The
approximate cost of special benefit services by parcel type was determined. Then, the special benefit
cost of services by type was divided by the frontage and square footage of those parcels to determine
the assessment rates.
Parcel Size and Parcel.Square Footage
The DFPBID's services will benefit each assessed parcel as a whole. The service budget which, in
this Engineer's estimation, represents special benefits to the parcels, has been allocated based on parcel
size and parcel square footage.

Zone Categorization
1. Zone 3
Zone 3 parcels receive the highest level of benefit from the DFPBID assessment due to location along
the Fulton Street corridor, an area with the highest levels of day and night pedestrian traffic due to the
aspects of the street focused on retail -oriented uses, events, and other activities. This includes daily
clean team and hospitality ambassadors, overnight security services, Fulton Zone event production,
and economic development and marketing services.
2. Zone 2
Zone 2 parcels receive the second tier of benefits due to the high levels of pedestrian traffic. Zone 2
includes a combination of office and some retail -oriented uses. This includes daily hospitality and
clean team ambassador services, overnight security services, limited event production, and economic
development and marketing services.
3. Zone 1
Downtown Fresno PBID Management District Plan v v
WN
June 24, 2022
TOWN
Page 25
FRS Na
Zone 1 parcels receive the basic tier of benefits due to lower levels of pedestrian traffic due to primary
office and government uses, and fewer retail -oriented uses. This includes economic development and
marketing services, limited event production, hospitality ambassadors, and limited clean team
ambassador services.
Parcel Categonr,ation
Assessment categories for each parcel were determined based on the parcel's land use code as shown
in the Assessor's Records and supplemented by other available information. In general, the
assessment category for each parcel reflects the use of the parcel as described by its land use code.
Parcels with multiple uses, such as strip malls with retail storefronts and commercial use buildings on
the same parcel, are assessed at the rate applicable to the use that occupies the largest portion of the
building square footage. In cases where the land use code and actual use differ, the actual use prevails
for classification purposes.
1. Commercial
Commercial parcels will receive and benefit from all DFPBID services, and will therefore be assessed
the full rate. These parcels have a commercial component because their owners aim to benefit from
tenant rents, increased customers, or increased use by visitors. The primary purpose of the DFPBID
is to provide property owner services which generate special benefits to parcels with commercial uses.
2. Parking
Parking garages, both those contained within a building and those that are freestanding, are a part of the
commercial core of the DFPBID. These pay -for -access garages do benefit from an increase in commerce
and resulting increase in use and fees received. However, they benefit to a lesser degree from their size
as do standard commercial buildings, thus they pay a reduced building size assessment rate.
3. Residential
Parcels that are zoned solely for single-family residential use have been conclusively determined by
the State Legislature not to benefit from district services. There are, however, certain residential
parcels within the DFPBID (such as multi -family and condominiums) that have been identified as not
zoned solely for single family residential use; these parcels will benefit from and receive the DFPBID's
services. Because they do not have a commercial component, these parcels will not benefit from an
increase in commerce and the economic enhancement services. Thus, these parcels are assessed at a
lower rate, commensurate with the benefit received from the DFPBID's services for each zone.
4. Non -Profit
Privately owned, tax-exempt non-profit parcels will receive and benefit from the DFPBID's services.
Because, however, they are not commercial parcels, they will not benefit from an increase in commerce
and the economic enhancement services. Thus, they will pay a lower assessment rate which is
commensurate with the benefit received from the DFPBID's services.
Changes in Data
Every effort has been made to ensure each parcel included in the DFPBID is clearly identified and
that all parcels included in the DFPBID are consistent in the boundary map and the assessment
calculation table. However, errors in data can and may arise or data may change after formation of
the DFPBID. Inconsistencies may include updated parcel sizes or parcel splits. If inconsistencies arise,
the order of precedence shall be: 1) the assessment calculation table and 2) the boundary map. Based

FRS Nv
on the assessment calculation table, a parcel owner could calculate if the appropriate assessment
amount was charged. Additionally, using the boundary map, a parcel owner could determine if its
APN was correctly identified.
If the parcel size or type of a parcel changes during the term of the DFPBID, the assessment
calculation may be modified accordingly.
Categori.Zation Appeals
The category determined for each parcel is shown in Appendix 4. The use for each parcel is
established at formation and may be updated upon each renewal. If a parcel owner believes their
parcel has been mis-classified or has changed, they may appeal in writing to the City of Fresno for re-
consideration. Appeals must be received by the City no later than June 1 of each year. Appeals must
include the parcel number, current classification, requested classification, and the evidence upon which
the appeal is based (for instance if a parcel is occupied by a retail store, but classified as commercial,
a current photo of the retail store showing the building number). Appeals will not provide retroactive
reductions.
Appeals should be made to:
County of Fresno
Public Works & Planning Department / Resources Division
Special Districts Administration
2220 Tulare Street, 6th Floor
Fresno, CA 93721
B. Assessment Notice
During the hearing process, an Assessment Ballot will be sent to owners of each parcel in the
DFPBID. The Assessment Ballot provides an estimated assessment for each parcel. The final
individual assessment for any particular parcel may change, up or down, if the parcel square footage,
lot building size, or type differ from those used to calculate the amount shown on the notice, which
can be found in Appendix 4.
C. Bonds
Bonds will not be issued to finance services as a part of this DFPBID.
D. Time and Manner for Collecting Assessments
As provided by State Law, the DFPBID assessment will appear as a separate line item on annual
property tax bills prepared by the County of Fresno. Parcels which do not receive property tax bills
will be invoiced by the City. Property tax bills are generally distributed in the fall, and payment is
expected by lump sum or installment. The County of Fresno shall distribute funds collected to the
City of Fresno, which will then forward funds to the Owners' Association. Existing laws for
enforcement and appeal of property taxes, including penalties and interest, apply to the assessments.
E. Engineer's Certification
I hereby certify, to the best of my knowledge and experience, that each of the identified assessed
parcels located within the Downtown Fresno Property and Business Improvement District will receive

STREETS AND HIGHWAYS CODE
DIVISION 18. PARKING
PART 7. PROPERTY AND BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT LAW OF 1994
CHAPTER 1. General Provisions
ARTICLE 1. Declarations
36600. Citation of part
This part shall be known and may be cited as the "Property and Business Improvement District Law of 1994."
36601. Legislative findings and declarations; Legislative guidance
The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Businesses located and operating within business districts in some of this state's communities are
economically disadvantaged, are underutilized, and are unable to attract customers due to inadequate
facilities, services, and activities in the business districts.
(b) It is in the public interest to promote the economic revitalization and physical maintenance of business
districts in order to create jobs, attract new businesses, and prevent the erosion of the business districts.
(c) It is of particular local benefit to allow business districts to fund business related improvements,
maintenance, and activities through the levy of assessments upon the businesses or real property that receive
benefits from those improvements.
(d) Assessments levied for the purpose of conferring special benefit upon the real property or a specific
benefit upon the businesses in a business district are not taxes for the general benefit of a city, even if property,
businesses, or persons not assessed receive incidental or collateral effects that benefit them.
(e) Property and business improvement districts formed throughout this state have conferred special benefits
upon properties and businesses within their districts and have made those properties and businesses more
useful by providing the following benefits:
(1) Crime reduction. A study by the Rand Corporation has confirmed a 12-percent reduction in the
incidence of robbery and an 8-percent reduction in the total incidence of violent crimes within the
30 districts studied.
(2) Job creation.
(3) Business attraction.
(4) Business retention.
(5) Economic growth.
(6) New investments.
(f) With the dissolution of redevelopment agencies throughout the state, property and business improvement
districts have become even more important tools with which communities can combat blight, promote
economic opportunities, and create a clean and safe environment.
(g) Since the enactment of this act, the people of California have adopted Proposition 218, which added
Article XIII D to the Constitution in order to place certain requirements and restrictions on the formation of,
and activities, expenditures, and assessments by property -based districts. Article XIII D of the Constitution
provides that property -based districts may only levy assessments for special benefits.
(h) The act amending this section is intended to provide the Legislature's guidance with regard to this act, its
interaction with the provisions of Article XIII D of the Constitution, and the determination of special benefits
in property -based districts.
Downtown Fresno PBID Management District Plan DOWN
June 24, 2022
Page 31 TOWN
(1) The lack of legislative guidance has resulted in uncertainty and inconsistent application of this
act, which discourages the use of assessments to fund needed improvements, maintenance, and
activities in property -based districts, contributing to blight and other underutilization of property.
(2) Activities undertaken for the purpose of conferring special benefits upon property to be assessed
inherently produce incidental or collateral effects that benefit property or persons not assessed.
Therefore, for special benefits to exist as a separate and distinct category from general benefits, the
incidental or collateral effects of those special benefits are inherently part of those special benefits.
The mere fact that special benefits produce incidental or collateral effects that benefit property or
persons not assessed does not convert any portion of those special benefits or their incidental or
collateral effects into general benefits.
(3) It is of the utmost importance that property -based districts created under this act have clarity
regarding restrictions on assessments they may levy and the proper determination of special benefits.
Legislative clarity with regard to this act will provide districts with clear instructions and courts with
legislative intent regarding restrictions on property -based assessments, and the manner in which
special benefits should be determined.
36602. Purpose of part
The purpose of this part is to supplement previously enacted provisions of law that authorize cities to levy assessments
within property and business improvement districts, to ensure that those assessments conform to all constitutional
requirements and are determined and assessed in accordance with the guidance set forth in this act. This part does not
affect or limit any other provisions of law authorizing or providing for the furnishing of improvements or activities or
the raising of revenue for these purposes.
36603. Preemption of authority or charter city to adopt ordinances levying assessments
Nothing in this part is intended to preempt the authority of a charter city to adopt ordinances providing for a different
method of levying assessments for similar or additional purposes from those set forth in this part. A property and
business improvement district created pursuant to this part is expressly exempt from the provisions of the Special
Assessment Investigation, Limitation and Majority Protest Act of 1931 (Division 4 (commencing with Section 2800)).
36603.5. Part prevails over conflicting provisions
Any provision of this part that conflicts with any other provision of law shall prevail over the other provision of law,
as to districts created under this part.
36604. Severability
This part is intended to be construed liberally and, if any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions shall
remain in full force and effect. Assessments levied under this part are not special taxes.

and to allow a business owner to reasonably determine whether a business is located within the district
boundaries.
(b) The name of the proposed district.
(c) A description of the boundaries of the district, including the boundaries of benefit zones, proposed for
establishment or extension in a manner sufficient to identify the affected property and businesses included,
which may be made by reference to any plan or map that is on file with the clerk. The boundaries of a
proposed property assessment district shall not overlap with the boundaries of another existing property
assessment district created pursuant to this part. This part does not prohibit the boundaries of a district created

including, but not limited to, the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989 (Part 6 (commencing
with Section 36500)). This part does not prohibit the boundaries of a business assessment district created

part does not prohibit the boundaries of a business assessment district created pursuant to this part to overlap
with a property assessment district created pursuant to this part.
(d) The improvements, maintenance, and activities proposed for each year of operation of the district and the
maximum cost thereof. If the improvements, maintenance, and activities proposed for each year of operation
are the same, a description of the first year's proposed improvements, maintenance, and activities and a
statement that the same improvements, maintenance, and activities are proposed for subsequent years shall
satisfy the requirements of this subdivision.
(e) The total annual amount proposed to be expended for improvements, maintenance, or activities, and debt
service in each year of operation of the district. If the assessment is levied on businesses, this amount may
be estimated based upon the assessment rate. If the total annual amount proposed to be expended in each year
of operation of the district is not significantly different, the amount proposed to be expended in the initial
year and a statement that a similar amount applies to subsequent years shall satisfy the requirements of this
subdivision.
(f) The proposed source or sources of financing, including the proposed method and basis of levying the
assessment in sufficient detail to allow each property or business owner to calculate the amount of the
assessment to be levied against his or her property or business. The plan also shall state whether bonds will
be issued to finance improvements.
(g) The time and manner of collecting the assessments.
(h) The specific number of years in which assessments will be levied. In a new district, the maximum number
of years shall be five. Upon renewal, a district shall have a term not to exceed 10 years. Notwithstanding
these limitations, a district created pursuant to this part to finance capital improvements with bonds may levy
assessments until the maximum maturity of the bonds. The management district plan may set forth specific
increases in assessments for each year of operation of the district.
(i) The proposed time for implementation and completion of the management district plan.
0) Any proposed rules and regulations to be applicable to the district.
(k)
(1) A list of the properties or businesses to be assessed, including the assessor's parcel numbers for
properties to be assessed, and a statement of the method or methods by which the expenses of a
district will be imposed upon benefited real property or businesses, in proportion to the benefit
received by the property or business, to defray the cost thereof.
(2) In a property -based district, the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel
shall be determined exclusively 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
activities. An assessment shall not be imposed on any parcel that exceeds the reasonable cost of the
proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel. Only special benefits are assessable, and a
property -based district shall separate the general benefits, if any, from the special benefits conferred
on a parcel. Parcels within a property -based district that are owned or used by any city, public
agency, the State of California, or the United States shall not be exempt from assessment unless the
governmental entity can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that those publicly owned
parcels in fact receive no special benefit. The value of any incidental, secondary, or collateral effects
that arise from the improvements, maintenance, or activities of a property -based district and that

benefit property or persons not assessed shall not be deducted from the entirety of the cost of any
special benefit or affect the proportionate special benefit derived by each identified parcel.
(1) In a property -based district, the total amount of all special benefits to be conferred upon the properties
located within the property -based district.
(m) In a property -based district, the total amount of general benefits, if any.
(n) In a property -based district, a detailed engineer's report prepared by a registered professional engineer
certified by the State of California supporting all assessments contemplated by the management district plan.
(o) Any other item or matter required to be incorporated therein by the city council.
36623. Procedure to levy assessment
(a) If a city council proposes to levy a new or increased property assessment, the notice and protest and
hearing procedure shall comply with Section 53753 of the Government Code.
(b) If a city council proposes to levy a new or increased business assessment, the notice and protest and
hearing procedure shall comply with Section 54954.6 of the Government Code, except that notice shall be
mailed to the owners of the businesses proposed to be assessed. A protest may be made orally or in writing
by any interested person. Every written protest shall be filed with the clerk at or before the time fixed for the
public hearing. The city council may waive any irregularity in the form or content of any written protest. A
written protest may be withdrawn in writing at any time before the conclusion of the public hearing. Each
written protest shall contain a description of the business in which the person subscribing the protest is
interested sufficient to identify the business and, if a person subscribing is not shown on the official records
of the city as the owner of the business, the protest shall contain or be accompanied by written evidence that
the person subscribing is the owner of the business or the authorized representative. A written protest that
does not comply with this section shall not be counted in determining a majority protest. If written protests
are received from the owners or authorized representatives of businesses in the proposed district that will pay
50 percent or more of the assessments proposed to be levied and protests are not withdrawn so as to reduce
the protests to less than 50 percent, no further proceedings to levy the proposed assessment against such
businesses, as contained in the resolution of intention, shall be taken for a period of one year from the date
of the finding of a majority protest by the city council.
(c) If a city council proposes to conduct a single proceeding to levy both a new or increased property
assessment and a new or increased business assessment, the notice and protest and hearing procedure for the
property assessment shall comply with subdivision (a), and the notice and protest and hearing procedure for
the business assessment shall comply with subdivision (b). If a majority protest is received from either the
property or business owners, that respective portion of the assessment shall not be levied. The remaining
portion of the assessment may be levied unless the improvement or other special benefit was proposed to be
funded by assessing both property and business owners.
36624. Changes to proposed assessments
At the conclusion of the public hearing to establish the district, the city council may adopt, revise, change, reduce, or
modify the proposed assessment or the type or types of improvements, maintenance, and activities to be funded with
the revenues from the assessments. Proposed assessments may only be revised by reducing any or all of them. At the
public hearing, the city council may only make changes in, to, or from the boundaries of the proposed property and
business improvement district that will exclude territory that will not benefit from the proposed improvements,
maintenance, and activities. Any modifications, revisions, reductions, or changes to the proposed assessment district
shall be reflected in the notice and map recorded pursuant to Section 36627.
36625. Resolution of formation
(a) If the city council, following the public hearing, decides to establish a proposed property and business
improvement district, the city council shall adopt a resolution of formation that shall include, but is not limited
to, all of the following:
(1) A brief description of the proposed improvements, maintenance, and activities, the amount of
the proposed assessment, a statement as to whether the assessment will be levied on property,

FRS NO
businesses, or both within the district, a statement on whether bonds will be issued, and a description
of the exterior boundaries of the proposed district, which may be made by reference to any plan or
map that is on file with the clerk. The descriptions and statements need not be detailed and shall be
sufficient if they enable an owner to generally identify the nature and extent of the improvements,
maintenance, and activities and the location and extent of the proposed district.
(2) The number, date of adoption, and title of the resolution of intention.
(3) The time and place where the public hearing was held concerning the establishment of the
district.
(4) A determination regarding any protests received. The city shall not establish the district or levy
assessments if a majority protest was received.
(5) A statement that the properties, businesses, or properties and businesses in the district established
by the resolution shall be subject to any amendments to this part.
(6) A statement that the improvements, maintenance, and activities to be conferred on businesses
and properties in the district will be funded by the levy of the assessments. The revenue from the
levy of assessments within a district shall not be used to provide improvements, maintenance, or
activities outside the district or for any purpose other than the purposes specified in the resolution
of intention, as modified by the city council at the hearing concerning establishment of the district.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, improvements and activities that must be provided outside the
district boundaries to create a special or specific benefit to the assessed parcels or businesses may
be provided, but shall be limited to marketing or signage pointing to the district.
(7) A finding that the property or businesses within the area of the property and business
improvement district will be benefited by the improvements, maintenance, and activities funded by
the proposed assessments, and, for a property -based district, that property within the district will
receive a special benefit.
(8) In a property -based district, the total amount of all special benefits to be conferred on the
properties within the property -based district.
(b) The adoption of the resolution of formation and, if required, recordation of the notice and map pursuant
to Section 36627 shall constitute the levy of an assessment in each of the fiscal years referred to in the
management district plan.
36627. Notice and assessment diagram
Following adoption of the resolution establishing district assessments on properties pursuant to Section 36625, the
clerk shall record a notice and an assessment diagram pursuant to Section 3114. No other provision of Division 4.5
(commencing with Section 3100) applies to an assessment district created pursuant to this part.
36628. Establishment of separate benefit zones within district; Categories of businesses
The city council may establish one or more separate benefit zones within the district based upon the degree of benefit
derived from the improvements or activities to be provided within the benefit zone and may impose a different
assessment within each benefit zone. If the assessment is to be levied on businesses, the city council may also define
categories of businesses based upon the degree of benefit that each will derive from the improvements or activities to
be provided within the district and may impose a different assessment or rate of assessment on each category of
business, or on each category of business within each zone.
36628.5. Assessments on businesses or property owners
The city council may levy assessments on businesses or on property owners, or a combination of the two, pursuant to
this part. The city council shall structure the assessments in whatever manner it determines corresponds with the
distribution of benefits from the proposed improvements, maintenance, and activities, provided that any property -
based assessment conforms with the requirements set forth in paragraph (2) of subdivision (k) of Section 36622.
36629. Provisions and procedures applicable to benefit zones and business categories

All provisions of this part applicable to the establishment, modification, or disestablishment of a property and business
improvement district apply to the establishment, modification, or disestablishment of benefit zones or categories of
business. The city council shall, to establish, modify, or disestablish a benefit zone or category of business, follow the
procedure to establish, modify, or disestablish a property and business improvement district.
36630. Expiration of district; Creation of new district
If a property and business improvement district expires due to the time limit set pursuant to subdivision (h) of
Section 36622, a new management district plan may be created and the district may be renewed pursuant to this part.
CHAPTER 3. Assessments
36631. Time and manner of collection of assessments; Delinquent payments
The collection of the assessments levied pursuant to this part shall be made at the time and in the manner set forth by
the city council in the resolution levying the assessment. Assessments levied on real property may be collected at the
same time and in the same manner as for the ad valorem property tax, and may provide for the same lien priority and
penalties for delinquent payment. All delinquent payments for assessments levied pursuant to this part may be charged
interest and penalties.
36632. Assessments to be based on estimated benefit; Classification of real property and businesses; Exclusion
of residential and agricultural property
(a) The assessments levied on real property pursuant to this part shall be levied on the basis of the estimated
benefit to the real property within the property and business improvement district. The city council may
classify properties for purposes of determining the benefit to property of the improvements and activities
provided pursuant to this part.
(b) Assessments levied on businesses pursuant to this part shall be levied on the basis of the estimated benefit
to the businesses within the property and business improvement district. The city council may classify
businesses for purposes of determining the benefit to the businesses of the improvements and activities
provided pursuant to this part.
(c) Properties zoned solely for residential use, or that are zoned for agricultural use, are conclusively
presumed not to benefit from the improvements and service funded through these assessments, and shall not
be subject to any assessment pursuant to this part.
36633. Time for contesting validity of assessment
The validity of an assessment levied under this part shall not be contested in an action or proceeding unless the action
or proceeding is commenced within 30 days after the resolution levying the assessment is adopted pursuant to Section
36625. An appeal from a final judgment in an action or proceeding shall be perfected within 30 days after the entry of
judgment.
36634. Service contracts authorized to establish levels of city services
The city council may execute baseline service contracts that would establish levels of city services that would continue
after a property and business improvement district has been formed.
36635. Request to modify management district plan
The owners' association may, at any time, request that the city council modify the management district plan. Any
modification of the management district plan shall be made pursuant to this chapter.

FRESNv
(a) Upon the written request of the owners' association, the city council may modify the management district
plan after conducting one public hearing on the proposed modifications. The city council may modify the
improvements and activities to be funded with the revenue derived from the levy of the assessments by
adopting a resolution determining to make the modifications after holding a public hearing on the proposed
modifications. If the modification includes the levy of a new or increased assessment, the city council shall
comply with Section 36623. Notice of all other public hearings pursuant to this section shall comply with
both of the following:
(1) The resolution of intention shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the city
once at least seven days before the public hearing.
(2) A complete copy of the resolution of intention shall be mailed by first class mail, at least 10 days
before the public hearing, to each business owner or property owner affected by the proposed
modification.
(b) The city council shall adopt a resolution of intention which states the proposed modification prior to the
public hearing required by this section. The public hearing shall be held not more than 90 days after the
adoption of the resolution of intention.
36637. Reflection of modification in notices recorded and maps
Any subsequent modification of the resolution shall be reflected in subsequent notices and maps recorded pursuant to
Division 4.5 (commencing with Section 3100), in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 36627.
CHAPTER 3.5. Financing
36640. Bonds authorized; Procedure; Restriction on reduction or termination of assessments
(a)The city council may, by resolution, determine and declare that bonds shall be issued to finance the
estimated cost of some or all of the proposed improvements described in the resolution of formation adopted
pursuant to Section 36625, if the resolution of formation adopted pursuant to that section provides for the
issuance of bonds, under the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10 (commencing with Section 8500))
or in conjunction with Marks -Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1985 (Article 4 (commencing with Section
6584) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code). Either act, as the case may be, shall
govern the proceedings relating to the issuance of bonds, although proceedings under the Bond Act of 1915
may be modified by the city council as necessary to accommodate assessments levied upon business pursuant
to this part.
(b) The resolution adopted pursuant to subdivision (a) shall generally describe the proposed improvements
specified in the resolution of formation adopted pursuant to Section 36625, set forth the estimated cost of
those improvements, specify the number of annual installments and the fiscal years during which they are to
be collected. The amount of debt service to retire the bonds shall not exceed the amount of revenue estimated
to be raised from assessments over 30 years.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, assessments levied to pay the principal and interest on
any bond issued pursuant to this section shall not be reduced or terminated if doing so would interfere with
the timely retirement of the debt.
CHAPTER 4. Governance
36650. Report by owners' association; Approval or modification by city council
(a) The owners' association shall cause to be prepared a report for each fiscal year, except the first year, for
which assessments are to be levied and collected to pay the costs of the improvements, maintenance, and
activities described in the report. The owners' association's first report shall be due after the first year of
operation of the district. The report may propose changes, including, but not limited to, the boundaries of the
property and business improvement district or any benefit zones within the district, the basis and method of

levying the assessments, and any changes in the classification of property, including any categories of
business, if a classification is used.
(b) The report shall be filed with the clerk and shall refer to the property and business improvement district
by name, specify the fiscal year to which the report applies, and, with respect to that fiscal year, shall contain
all of the following information:
(1) Any proposed changes in the boundaries of the property and business improvement district or in
any benefit zones or classification of property or businesses within the district.
(2) The improvements, maintenance, and activities to be provided for that fiscal year.
(3) An estimate of the cost of providing the improvements, maintenance, and activities for that fiscal
year.

year.
(6) The estimated amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments

contained in the report and approve it as modified. Any modification shall be made pursuant to Sections
36635 and 36636.
The city council shall not approve a change in the basis and method of levying assessments that would impair
an authorized or executed contract to be paid from the revenues derived from the levy of assessments,
including any commitment to pay principal and interest on any bonds issued on behalf of the district.
36651. Designation of owners' association to provide improvements, maintenance, and activities
The management district plan may, but is not required to, state that an owners' association will provide the
improvements, maintenance, and activities described in the management district plan. If the management district plan
designates an owners' association, the city shall contract with the designated nonprofit corporation to provide services.
CHAPTER 5. Renewal
36660. Renewal of district; Transfer or refund of remaining revenues; District term limit
(a) Any district previously established whose term has expired, or will expire, may be renewed by following
the procedures for establishment as provided in this chapter.
(b) Upon renewal, any remaining revenues derived from the levy of assessments, or any revenues derived
from the sale of assets acquired with the revenues, shall be transferred to the renewed district. If the renewed
district includes additional parcels or businesses not included in the prior district, the remaining revenues
shall be spent to benefit only the parcels or businesses in the prior district. If the renewed district does not
include parcels or businesses included in the prior district, the remaining revenues attributable to these parcels
shall be refunded to the owners of these parcels or businesses.
(c) Upon renewal, a district shall have a term not to exceed 10 years, or, if the district is authorized to issue
bonds, until the maximum maturity of those bonds. There is no requirement that the boundaries, assessments,
improvements, or activities of a renewed district be the same as the original or prior district.
CHAPTER 6. Disestablishment
36670. Circumstances permitting disestablishment of district; Procedure
(a) Any district established or extended pursuant to the provisions of this part, where there is no indebtedness,
outstanding and unpaid, incurred to accomplish any of the purposes of the district, may be disestablished by
resolution by the city council in either of the following circumstances:
Downtown Fresno PBID Management District Plan OWN

Page 41 W N
FR�v
(1) If the city council finds there has been misappropriation of funds, malfeasance, or a violation of
law in connection with the management of the district, it shall notice a hearing on disestablishment.
(2) During the operation of the district, there shall be a 30-day period each year in which assessees
may request disestablishment of the district. The first such period shall begin one year after the date
of establishment of the district and shall continue for 30 days. The next such 30-day period shall
begin two years after the date of the establishment of the district. Each successive year of operation
of the district shall have such a 30-day period. Upon the written petition of the owners or authorized
representatives of real property or the owners or authorized representatives of businesses in the
district who pay 50 percent or more of the assessments levied, the city council shall pass a resolution
of intention to disestablish the district. The city council shall notice a hearing on disestablishment.
(b) The city council shall adopt a resolution of intention to disestablish the district prior to the public hearing
required by this section. The resolution shall state the reason for the disestablishment, shall state the time and
place of the public hearing, and shall contain a proposal to dispose of any assets acquired with the revenues
of the assessments levied within the property and business improvement district. The notice of the hearing
on disestablishment required by this section shall be given by mail to the property owner of each parcel or to
the owner of each business subject to assessment in the district, as appropriate. The city shall conduct the
public hearing not less than 30 days after mailing the notice to the property or business owners. The public
hearing shall be held not more than 60 days after the adoption of the resolution of intention.
36671. Refund of remaining revenues upon disestablishment or expiration without renewal of district;
Calculation of refund; Use of outstanding revenue collected after disestablishment of district
(a) Upon the disestablishment or expiration without renewal of a district, any remaining revenues, after all
outstanding debts are paid, derived from the levy of assessments, or derived from the sale of assets acquired
with the revenues, or from bond reserve or construction funds, shall be refunded to the owners of the property
or businesses then located and operating within the district in which assessments were levied by applying the
same method and basis that was used to calculate the assessments levied in the fiscal year in which the district
is disestablished or expires. All outstanding assessment revenue collected after disestablishment shall be
spent on improvements and activities specified in the management district plan.
(b) If the disestablishment occurs before an assessment is levied for the fiscal year, the method and basis that
was used to calculate the assessments levied in the immediate prior fiscal year shall be used to calculate the
amount of any refund.

APPENDIX 5 - TOTAL ESTIMATED MAXIMUM COST OF
IMPROVEMENTS, MAINTENANCE, AND ACTIVITIES
The estimated maximum cost of the line items below was developed based on the estimated costs of
providing services in the proposed DFPBID. The costs below are estimated; the actual line item
costs will fluctuate. The table below shows expenditures from assessment and non -assessed funds.
Assessment funds are governed by Section VI. There is no limit on reallocation of non -assessment
funds by the Downtown Fresno Association. The total maximum budget may exceed the maximum
listed in this table if parcel ownership changes results in parcels being assessed at a higher rate due to
a higher estimated benefit.

Downtown Police Patrol
The City provides baseline patrol coverage within the Downtown triangle 24 hours a
day, seven days a week. On average, patrol shifts consist of 7 officers, and patrol
hours will be modified during special events to provide adequate coverage. Consistent
presence in area varies by hours/day. Law enforcement video surveillance system will
be operational 24 hours a day/ seven days a week.
Additionally, the Metro Bike Team (formerly known as the Downtown Policing Unit —
DPU) consists of five officers and one sergeant. Officers conduct patrols using a
combination of bicycles, marked patrol cars, and plainclothes surveillance when
necessary to solve or prevent crime. Metro Bike Team (MBT) officers have formed
strong relationships with downtown business owners, residents, entertainment venue
management and the Downtown Fresno Partnership to maintain safety in the area. The
team has also developed a strong knowledge of the criminal element in the Downtown
area through frequent contacts, swift identification, and arrest when crime is reported.
The unit's hours and days of work are flexed on a weekly basis to address special
events and crime trends in the area.
