Landowner-Initiated Petitions

Petitions are used by landowners requesting capital improvements such as road paving or for requesting a "no-pave" restriction on a roadway. Landowners interested in road or other capital improvements or no paving requests must contact the District office and will be referred to the District Engineer for project review prior to issuing the District's authorized petition form.

 

As of March 16, 2023 the Board of Supervisors has established a Petition Review Fee of $400 for roadway segments 0.5 mile or less and $800 for over 0.5 miles. The fee applies to both road paving and "no pave" petitions. Petitions must be submitted to the District office, along with the review fee, by April 30th of each year.

 

If more than 50% of the landowners on a roadway or roadway segment request a road paving improvement and it is approved by the board to go to referendum, at least 90% of the affected landowners must be in favor for the project to proceed. Landowners would either be assessed on a per parcel bass through District financing, or the estimated costs for the project may be paid in full by landowners prior to the project being added to a Plan of Improvement. Currently District financing of projects is typically from 10 to 15 years depending on market conditions. For Open-Graded Emulsified Mix assessments, costs currently are estimated between $1,100 and $1,800 per parcel per year and for Asphalt, the estimated costs are between $1,800 and $2,500 per parcel per year, depending on construction costs and financing.
