STRATEGIC INITIATIVE Public Safety BACKGROUND The Seaport Centre Maintenance District (District) was formed to pay for the maintenance of facilities that were determined to require a level of service greater than regularly required. The District was established in 1987 to pay for the maintenance of stormwater pump stations, levee systems, and utilities in easements that benefit the parcels within the District. On June 8, 2015, Council accepted the City Manager's and Engineer's Reports (Reports) that describes the annual maintenance work, costs, and budget of the District. The reports also established the formula by which the annual special benefits assessments will be calculated against each assessed parcel for an aggregate amount not to exceed $187,000 annually. On August 24, 2015, property owners of the District unanimously approved the Reports, the levy, and distribution of the annual special benefit assessment of $187,000 for the parcels within the District. On the same date, the Council adopted a resolution approving the proposed assessments and authorized the County to levy and collect the assessments. It was approved that the assessment would be levied annually, without additional mail ballot proceedings, so long as maintenance expenses are incurred. The rate of the assessment may not be increased above the rate shown on the ballot without an additional mail ballot proceeding. In 2016, 2017 and 2018, the Council again adopted resolutions authorizing the County to levy and collect the annual assessments for the District.
