Contractual Assessment Districts (CADs) and Alhambra Valley Assessment Districts (AVADs)
A CAD is a financing arrangement that allows a group of neighborhood property owners to share the cost of planning, design, and construction to extend a new sewer to serve their parcels.
AVADs are located upstream of the Alhambra Valley Trunk Sewer and are generally similar to CADs.
Participation in a CAD or AVAD is voluntary and participating property owners have the option to repay their share of the costs through annual assessments on their property tax bills.
Who can participate?
A group of owners of at least 3 residential parcels
What can be financed?
Design and construction of a new neighborhood sewer or sewer main extension
Terms
- Costs financed over 10 years (for CADs) or 15 years (AVADs)
- CAD participants receive a portion of CAD fees collected from subsequent connections made within 20 years
