Bill > SB613

This bill modifies the Neighborhood Improvement District Act by expanding the definitions and scope of improvements that can be undertaken in a neighborhood improvement district. The bill provides detailed definitions for terms like "acquire", "consultant", "cost", "improve", and "improvement", and broadens the types of projects that can be implemented, including acquiring property, improving streets, drainage systems, street lights, waterworks, telecommunications facilities in underserved areas, parks, landscaping, flood control works, bridges, retaining walls, parking facilities, and public safety improvements. Notably, the bill adds a specific provision allowing for river or creek bank erosion mitigation projects, even if they benefit only private property owners. A neighborhood improvement district is defined as a city or county area with defined boundaries that can be created by vote or petition, and which can be subject to special assessments to fund improvements. The bill aims to provide local governments with more flexibility in undertaking infrastructure and community enhancement projects through the neighborhood improvement district framework.
