DISCUSSION:
On June 23, 1998, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 91-98, approving the Engineer’s Report, establishing the rate of assessment, authorizing annual increases thereof, and ordering maintenance services within the Hilltop Landscape Maintenance District (District). The rate of assessment for this District must be confirmed annually by action of the City Council.
In accordance with Section 12.60.240 of the Richmond Municipal Code, and in accordance with State law, the first step in this process is to order the preparation of an Engineer’s Report of assessment for the 2023-2024 fiscal year. As required by Section

The City Council will be asked to hold a public hearing and accept the Engineer’s Report to then finalize the process.
