Antelope Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District

Improved Mosquito, Vector and Disease Testing and Control Assessment (Prop 218. Assessment)

Antelope Valley MVCD was established by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors in 1958 as a public health agency. Since its formation, the District has increased its size from approximately 178 square miles to over 287 square miles, including the cities of Lancaster and Palmdale, as well as Quartz Hill. The Mosquito District is currently funded by a very small portion of local property taxes, and an insufficient yearly special assessment that was established in 1958. The revenues collected from this assessment are not only insufficient, but have been historically low in comparison to neighboring agencies. As a property owner within the District, you are being asked to vote on a proposed funding measure to ensure continued and improved mosquito, vector, and disease control services in your area.

El Distrito del Control de Mosquitos y Vectores de la Valle de Antelope

Control de Mosquitos, Vectores, y Enfermedades (Evaluación de la Proposición 218)

El Distrito del Control de Mosquitos y Vectores de la Valle de Antelope fue establecido por la Junta de Supervisores del Condado de Los Ángeles en 1958 como una agencia de salud pública. Desde su formación, el Distrito ha aumentado su tamaño de aproximadamente 178 millas cuadradas a más de 287 millas cuadradas, incluidas las ciudades de Lancaster y Palmdale, y la area de Quartz Hill. Actualmente, el Distrito está financiado por una porción muy pequeña de los impuestos locales sobre la propiedad y una evaluación especial anual insuficiente que se estableció en 1958. Los ingresos recaudados de esta evaluación no solo son insuficientes, sino que han sido históricamente bajos en comparación con las agencias vecinas. Como dueño de una propiedad dentro del Distrito, se le pide que vote sobre una propuesta de medida de financiamiento para garantizar servicios continuos y mejorados de control de mosquitos, vectores y enfermedades en su área.
