The Bureau of Street Lighting is proposing to create this district to fund the operation, maintenance, and repair of street lighting systems in the specified areas. This process involves establishing a public hearing date for property owners to vote on the proposed assessments, as required by Proposition 218.

Key Details:

• Location: Vose Street (100'-250' east of Burnet Ave) and Gault Street (385'-535' east of Burnet Ave).
• Purpose: To fund street lighting maintenance, operation, and energy costs for Fiscal Year 2025-2026.
• Total Assessments: The total amount to be assessed across all affected parcels is $840.90.
• Affected Parcels: 7 parcels are identified.
• Process: Requires a public hearing, assessment ballot proceedings (weighted voting by property owners), and potential confirmation by the City Council. If weighted 'no' votes exceed 'yes' votes, the district will be abandoned.
• Annual Increases: Assessments may increase annually by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) without further notice or ballot.
• Administration: The district's administration may be combined with other districts in the future.
