EXHIBIT A
PBID SPENDING PLAN AND USE OF FUNDS REPORT
for
FISCAL YEAR 2023-24 & 2024-25
Summary
On November 27, 1985, Lynwood Ordinance 1262 was adopted into law establishing the
Parking and Business Improvement District (PBID). PBID assessments are levied as a fair
and equitable way to provide funds to maintain, operate, and improve business areas in the
City. The fundamental purpose of the PBID is to promote the economic revitalization and
physical maintenance of the Lynwood businesscommunity.
Section 3, of the Ordinance identifies the PBID Area as all of the territory within the
boundaries of the City of Lynwood and Section 4(a) of the Ordinance established the system
of charge and the method each business is assessed. The mandated levy imposes an
additional 50% fee of the business license tax to all businesses located within the PBID
area, which is assessed each year at the same time as the business license renewal, which
takes place each December.
PBID assessments are levied as a fair and equitable way to provide funds to maintain,
operate, and improve business areas in the City. The City expects to receive
approximately $115,000 in assessment funds by the end of the current fiscal year (FY
2020-21). When combined with prior year carryover funds (estimated at $245,300), the
City anticipates having approximately $360,300 in PBID funds available for FY 2023-24.
The assumption of $57,300 in contingency carryover from FY 2023-24 along with
anticipated annual revenue of $125,000 provides the basis of an estimated $180,300 in
assessment funds for FY 2024-25.
Lew of Assessments
The levy of assessments imposing an additional 50% fee of the business license tax to
all businesses located within the PBID area will continue in Fiscal Years 2023-24 and
2022- 23.
