BACKGROUND The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 ("the Act") authorizes local agencies to impose an annual assessment on real property benefiting from improvements to pay for constructing and maintaining lighting and landscaping improvements. The assessments are collected by Alameda County as part of the annual tax bill. At the meeting of May 17, 2022, City Council approved the updated Engineer's Report prepared by the City Engineer relating to each respective assessment district and scheduled for June 21, 2022, as the public hearing in conformance with the requirements of the State of California Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972.
