At the June 13, 2005 meeting, City Council adopted a resolution initiating the annual levy of

Assessments for the District are being levied for the following improvements:
A) The maintenance and servicing of arterial street lights which provide an area wide special benefit
to all assessable parcels within the district whether or not such parcels are in close proximity to
such lights; and
B) The maintenance and servicing of streetlights in close proximity to certain lots and parcels that
provide a local special benefit to such lots or parcels.
The total assessment for each parcel reflects a combination of the area wide and local special benefit
received by the parcel. The amount of special benefit in each category for residential parcels varies
depending on the type of dwelling, e.g. whether single family or multiple unit. Non - residential parcels
are assessed an area wide special benefit base on square footage and a local special benefit based on
front footage.
