Create new law allowing special neighborhood districts to fund local improvements
In Plain English
The city proposes a new law that lets neighborhoods create special districts to pay for improvements like streetlights, landscaping, or security. Property owners in these districts pay extra fees on their tax bills to fund specific projects. If approved, neighborhoods can petition the city to form these districts and collect money for improvements the regular city budget doesn't cover.
