Council confirms LLMD engineer's report; most assessments unchanged, Zone 10 CPI adjusts 2.69%
Summary
Council conducted a public hearing and adopted the engineer's report for the Lighting and Landscaping Maintenance District FY25–26; staff said no assessments will increase except a CPI-based 2.69% annual adjustment in Zone 10 (Valley Glen). Council discussed equity and long-term funding concerns.
Staff presented the third and final hearing on the FY25–26 Lighting and Landscaping Maintenance District (LLMD) engineer's report, stating, "No assessments are proposed to increase this year other than the annual adjustment allowed in the Valley Glen development area. The annual percentage increase is based on the CPI... and the percentage increase applied this year is 2.69%."
Councilmembers flagged equity concerns about distribution of costs across zones and noted that roughly 40% of community households (approximately 4,000 households cited in discussion) currently pay nothing into the system; several members said the city should examine broader, equitable funding approaches in the coming year. The public hearing closed with no public speakers, and council adopted the engineer's report and ordered the levy of assessments for FY25–26.
