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 for a CFD to assist the Kelseyville Fire Protection District with funding for improvements, operations, and maintenance.
Important: The formation of the Fire CFD must be approved by the affected voters. The Kelseyville Fire Protection District can't form the CFD without voter approval.
