body
BACKGROUND
The recommended budget and assessment for Fiscal Year 2026-27 for the Silverado Community Services District (SCSD) is $251,430. The SCSD's assessment engineering contractor, NBS, using the Consumer Price Index, calculated a 2.48% increase over the prior fiscal year's maximum assessment. The maximum special tax will result in revenue totaling $230,026.
Total appropriations of $251,430 include costs for landscaping maintenance, street light repairs, utilities of water and electricity, street sweeping, County Counsel legal services, and administrative services.
Total revenues of $234,950 are expected from collection of special taxes and interest earnings. The variance of $16,480 in appropriations will be pulled from the available fund balance in order to complete landscape upgrades, walking path repairs, and cover increased legal costs.
On January 30, 2026, the SCSD Advisory Committee unanimously approved to endorse the maximum assessment allowable and approved the recommended budget for the Fiscal Year 2026-27. Final adoption will be on the June 23, 2026 consent calendar.
