§ 8752 Project Assessment Division

Key Takeaways

  • •The board splits big plans into smaller projects or parts.
  • •Each smaller project gets its own fair share of costs.
  • •The cost is split based on who benefits the most from the project.
  • •The board decides what’s fair for each piece of land involved.

Example

A neighborhood wants to add new sidewalks and streetlights.

The board will split the work into two parts: one for sidewalks and one for streetlights. Houses closer to the new sidewalks might pay a little more for that part because they benefit more. The same goes for streetlights—houses that get brighter streets might pay more for that project.
