Local Improvement Districts
Local Improvement Districts (LIDs) may be formed when: 1) property owners petition the City for the purpose of constructing and funding public improvements in their neighborhood, or 2) at times a Local Improvement District may be formed when the City determines that improvements are necessary. Special assessments to those properties benefiting from the improvements are implemented by the City through the formation of an LID. Typical improvements made through the LID process are streets, water lines, sewers, sidewalks, and traffic signals.
