The proposed maintenance assessment for the Natoma Station Landscaping & Lighting District has passed following the recent Proposition 218 ballot process.
The measure exceeded the required threshold for approval. Ballots were tabulated April 29 at 9 a.m. at Folsom City Hall, open to the public. The assessment passed with 71.84% in favor.
The approved assessment will support the ongoing maintenance of neighborhood landscaping, lighting, irrigation, small parks, and other assets within the district. The district has faced funding challenges in recent years as maintenance costs have outpaced existing assessment revenue.
With voter approval secured, the Folsom City Council is expected to consider adopting the final engineer’s report and confirming the new assessment at its upcoming meeting on May 12 at 6:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers located at City Hall, 50 Natoma Street.
Next steps include:
- Final City Council action to confirm the assessment results.
- Implementation of the updated assessment for fiscal year 2026-27.
- Continued communication with residents about service levels and maintenance priorities.
The City of Folsom will continue working with Natoma Station residents to support neighborhood services and maintain community amenities.
