CivicMic has been working with the City of Hesperia since December 2019 to facilitate community outreach and public engagement opportunities to determine the level of public support for the proposed formation of a Community Facilities District to fund improvements and maintenance of the Hesperia Golf & Country Club.
January 2021 Update: After weighing resident feedback and concerns against the current state of the Hesperia Golf Course, the City has decided to postpone discussions on the formation of a Community Facilities District. As a result, there will not be an election and no ballots will be cast for or against the CFD; the issue has been tabled. Currently, there is no established timeframe as to when the issue will be revisited.
Important: The formation of the proposed Community Facilities District must be approved by the affected voters. The City can't form a Community Facilities District without voter approval.

Maintenance Community Facilities District ("CFD") Formation Steps
The infographic below is generic for informational purposes only and was not created for this specific project. The infographic reflects the general steps of the CFD formation process, including the participation of a steering committee to assist the public agency in determining if there is sufficient support to move forward. The steering committee referenced in the infographic is not a requirement of the formation process. Currently, there is no citizen steering committee for this project. The outreach being conducted is intended to determine if there is support by the nearby residents for a CFD to assist the general fund with funding to keep the golf and country club open.
