Perhaps I am missing something, but I don't see Flood Zone 8 anywhere in this year's draft budget. The Upper Lake Community Services District (ULCSD) Formation Committee is in the process of finalizing our proposed budget for submission to LAFCO. We have no knowledge of the financial expenditures for Flood Zone 8 other than the committee members being told that the contract for mowing the levee flood plan and roadside boarders was approximately $70,000 annually. The county has since bought a mower and does this work themselves, which we are grateful for. We have no knowledge of the financial income generated from the property tax line item on all Flood Zone 8 property tax bills (please see attached Flood Zone 8 tax bill sample, line item hilighted). We need as much financial information as possible, and have been waiting for the budget hearings to obtain this much needed information. There is no Flood Zone 8 information, detailed or otherwise, in the present draft budget that we can find. According to the 2022-2023 Grand Jury Report, page 207 states (see attached Grand Jury Report) "Since 1966, the operation and maintenance of the Upper Basin (Clover Creek and Middle Creek area) have been maintained by the district with funding collected from the property tax which is placed in the District Zone 8 budget..." Can you help me find the "District Zone 8 Budget"? If indeed, it is not included, please postpone budget approval until there is a Flood Zone 8 budget line item included in this draft budget. Thank you kindly for your consideration.
