s we welcome the beauty of spring, it's a good time to remember that maintaining Danville's beauty is a responsibility we all share. All property owners contribute to the current Lighting and Landscape Assessment District (LLAD) to fund essential services that ensure Danville remains a safe, well-maintained, and welcoming community. While LLAD fees have remained flat for more than 20 years, Town expenses for maintenance have risen 78% — creating a funding gap that could affect the quality of our parks, street lights, landscaping and facilities. This year, the Town is taking steps to close that gap with an updated LLAD. Property owners will soon receive ballots to vote on an adjustment for these amenities. If approved, the updated assessment will ensure the Town can continue providing the level of maintenance and quality residents expect.

For most single family households, an average increase of less than $90 for this yearly assessment would help avoid cuts to Town programs and services. Learn more about the proposed LLAD adjustment in this issue. You’ll also find details on upcoming events, including the return of Lend a Hand Day, Bike to Work Day, and a season full of art, recreation, and community connection. We look forward to a vibrant season ahead.
