Why This Vote Matters

The council unanimously approved a 3% increase in special assessments that Marina Bay property owners pay to maintain their neighborhood's landscaping and lighting. This will raise the total assessments to $691,245 for the 2022-2023 budget year, with the city contributing an additional $462,436 from general funds. The increase is routine maintenance of an existing special district that only affects Marina Bay residents who already pay these assessments. This continues the council's typical pattern of supporting budget measures, with all members historically approving over 80% of budget items.
