Council confirms assessments for landscape and streetlight districts
Summary
Council adopted resolutions continuing the landscape maintenance district and streetlight benefit assessment district for fiscal year 2026–27, confirming engineers' reports and levies after public hearings with no new speakers.
The Loma Linda City Council adopted two resolutions on June 9 confirming continued maintenance and assessments for neighborhood landscape and streetlight benefit districts for fiscal year 2026–27.
The council reopened public hearings that had been started at earlier meetings for landscape maintenance district number one and the streetlight assessment district, invited any further public comments and, seeing none, closed the hearings. The clerk read the resolutions on title and the council voted to adopt council bills R‑2026‑25 (landscape maintenance district) and R‑2026‑26 (streetlight assessment district), confirming the engineers' reports and levies for the coming fiscal year.
Staff explained the historical basis for the assessments, noting that older neighborhoods with fixed assessments from decades ago do not automatically escalate without voter approval, and that the city has subsidized older districts when necessary. The council recorded the motions as carried.
What comes next: the assessments will appear on the FY 2026–27 property tax rolls or billing per the engineer's reports; no additional public hearings were requested at the meeting.
