Only parcels located within the established district are charged this special tax for landscape maintenance. The special tax is calculated per gross land acreage multiplied by the land area of the parcel. The special tax rates for each area of the District are illustrated below: Community Facilities District No. 2002-02 Special Tax Rates Fiscal Year 2007/2008 Tax Area SPECIAL TAX RATES A $ 733,94 B $ 96,63 C $13,114.24 Agenda Item I e e e The special tax collected is accounted for as a special revenue fund.
