Annexation for Service • No Requirement • No strings attached, just pay your bill • Require it immediately • String attached • Revenue sharing agreements • Contract for future • Get it today, but in the future you won’t oppose annexation
What Services Can be Provided? • Utilities • Dispatch • Public Safety • Animal Control • Economic Development
Mechanisms • CSA • JPA • MOU • Contract • Just Cause
Proposition 218 & Extra‑Territorial Services • Extra-territorial services are subject to Proposition 218 • Utility provider’s responsibility • Charging more for out of extra‑territorial customers • Allowed to cover costs supported by revenues other than rates
