Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved a 3% increase in annual assessments for Marina Bay property owners to fund neighborhood landscaping and lighting maintenance starting in July 2016. Property owners in this area pay these special assessments to cover costs like gardening, tree care, and street lighting that go beyond basic city services. The increase is needed because maintenance costs have risen since the district was established. This type of assessment adjustment is routine administrative business that affects only properties within the specific maintenance district boundaries.
