Board continues rate discussion; notes Proposition 218 requirements and timing
Summary
Directors continued work on a justification package for revised snow-removal rates, noting Proposition 218 public-hearing requirements and that new rates cannot take effect before July 1; education meetings are not subject to the 45-day notice.
The board continued discussion of snow-removal rates and the legal procedures required to implement changes.
Directors noted that any new rates tied to snow-removal services must follow Proposition 218 public-hearing requirements and that, as discussed at the meeting, new rates could not become effective until July 1 (with an apparent expectation now shifting availability to July 1, 2027). The minutes also record that public education meetings about the rate justification are not subject to the 45-day notice that binds Proposition 218 hearings.
Why it matters: rate changes require transparent justification and legally prescribed notification steps under Proposition 218. The board did not adopt new rates at this meeting and left the item on an ongoing timetable for staff to assemble supporting documentation.
