Bill > HB4064

This bill makes several changes to Arizona law regarding municipal improvement districts, which are areas within a city or town designated for specific public improvements or services. Primarily, it modifies the requirements for forming these districts by introducing a mandatory petition process before a governing body can pass a resolution of intention to order an improvement. This petition must be signed by a certain percentage of property owners and/or by owners representing a specific percentage of the assessed valuation or acreage within the proposed district, depending on the type of district. The bill also clarifies definitions, such as what constitutes a "street" to include on-street parking, and amends provisions related to the formation and operation of districts for pedestrian malls, parking facilities, and enhanced municipal services, including allowing for waiver of certain procedural requirements if all property owners petition for the improvement. Additionally, it specifies that the estimated assessment for an improvement cannot exceed the maximum amount stated in the petition.
