The landscape maintenance districts in Santa Clarita fund the maintenance and servicing of landscaping improvements in designated areas. Established by Los Angeles County and subsequently annexed by the city, these districts are funded by annual assessments collected from property owners.
“Due to increased maintenance costs, an adjustment to the current assessments is necessary to ensure the long-term sustainability of these shared spaces,” the city’s release said.
