SB 240: County service areas: farmworker housing: County of Napa.

The County Service Area Law authorizes the formation of county service areas to provide authorized services, including a county service area in the County of Napa for the sole purpose of acquiring, constructing, leasing, or maintaining farmworker housing. That law authorizes the board of supervisors of the County of Napa to levy an annual benefit assessment not to exceed $10 per planted vineyard acre, as provided, for the purposes of this county service area.

This bill would increase the limit on the amount of the annual benefit assessment that the board of supervisors may levy pursuant to this provision from $10 to $15 per planted vineyard acre.

This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Napa.
