It is the responsibility of the property owners to maintain these improvements as approved. 12 Better Answer is a Partnership Advantages to having the district: We are able to get all property owners to pay on their tax bill – No free riders or forming an HOA and getting neighbors to pay We are set-up to do this work and the property owners most likely have better things to do with their time In some cases we have access to really cheap labor (inmates, CCC, interns) In some cases, the parcel owners may have access to cheaper labor We become partners instead of regulators those to be served and the infrastructure is maintained, the city looks great, the property owners benefit in a nice neighborhood and all the other tax payers are not burdened by the unique aspect of each subdivision. 13 Next Year Increased: Communication Partnership Fresh look at costs and who can provide services in the most efficient manner 14 6/29/2018   1.)
