BREA
The City Council met Tuesday to discuss the possibility of using Mello-Roos financing to help in the establishment of new communities built in the outlying parts of Brea.
The city already has a Mello-Roos district set up at the Olinda Ranch development, where homeowners pay a special property tax for public improvements in that area.
Eventually, as developers start to build in the city’s sphere of influence, the council may want to annex the land and help set up the special taxing district to pay for things such as roads, schools, libraries or other facilities. No action was taken.
