The Legislature finds and declares that it is in the public interest to allow local agencies to finance property related services through the imposition of an assessment upon the property which benefits from those services.
The Legislature also finds and declares that assessments imposed for the purpose of providing services which benefit individual properties are not taxes for the general benefit of the governmental entity, but are assessments for services which confer special benefits upon the properties to which the services are provided.
