The De Luz Community Services District is divided into five geographical zones. Each year, prior to drafting the budget, all accepted District roads are inspected to determine the maintenance work required for the coming fiscal year. Public budget workshops are held to discuss the recommended improvements, as well as the overhead costs of running the District. The cost of maintaining the primary roads, and the general and administrative costs are shared equally on a 'per acre' basis by all property owners within the District. The cost of maintaining the secondary roads is shared equally on a 'per acre' basis by the property owners of that zone only. The maintenance cost of the District primary roads, the general and administrative expense, and the maintenance of the secondary roads within your particular zone make up your benefit fee.
