The Assessment District was formed and the boundary includes properties on both sides of Higuera Street between Lindblade Avenue and Hayden Avenue.

The amount of the assessment is expected to remain the same as prior years as there is no proposed new or change to existing improvements or services. Pursuant to Sections 15.01.070(D) and (E) of the CCMC, should the City Council adopt the proposed resolution, the Public Works Director/City Engineer shall prepare the Engineer’s Report.
