The City of Santa Clarita will be hosting four informational meetings to discuss proposed increases to the Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) assessments for three zones in the Saugus neighborhood, including portions of Canyon Heights (Zone T-62), Shadow Hills (Zone T-48) and Bouquet Canyon (Zone T-44). The meetings will provide property owners with important details regarding the current assessment structure, the proposed adjustments to ensure the continued maintenance of landscaping within the affected zones, an explanation of the balloting process for the proposed assessment changes and a discussion of potential alternatives.
Affected property owners will receive a letter in the mail with further information regarding the assessments and the upcoming informational meetings. The City encourages all property owners in the affected Zones to attend one of the sessions to learn more and ask questions regarding the proposed changes.

Property owners in LMD Zones T-48, T-62 and T-44 currently pay an annual assessment that has remained unchanged for many years. Due to rising costs associated with maintenance and utilities, the current assessment rates are no longer sufficient to cover ongoing expenses. To support continuous maintenance and future improvements, an increase in assessment rates is being considered.
The Landscape Maintenance Districts in Santa Clarita fund the maintenance and servicing of landscaping improvements in designated areas. Established by Los Angeles County and subsequently annexed by the City, these districts are funded by annual assessments collected from property owners. Due to increased maintenance costs, an adjustment to the current assessments is necessary to ensure the long-term sustainability of these shared spaces.
For more information, please contact Andrew Adams, Special Districts Manager, at (661) 290-2210 or aadams@santaclarita.gov.
