F-3000 - TITLE.¶
This division shall be known as the "Flood Control Assessment Ordinance" of the San Joaquin County Flood Control and Water Conservation District.
(Ord. No. 4546, 1-28-2020)
F-3001 - PURPOSE.¶
The Flood Control District maintains a flood protection system of levees, channels, pumping plants, and other improvements upon which the lives and property of District residents depend. It is necessary that these improvements be kept in a safe and effective condition. The purpose of the assessment is to supplement other available but limited revenues sufficiently to keep the existing flood protection system in a safe and effective condition, to enable the District to respond to emergencies and to perform maintenance and repair, and to provide for the completion of currently authorized projects and for general services to the public. The State Legislature has authorized the District to levy an assessment on each parcel of property within the District, or any zone thereof, on the basis of estimated benefits.
