What
are Special
Districts, CSA's, and Improvement Zones?
(Note: Yucca Mesa
already has CSA 70. To complete the "picture" a MAC needs
to be set up by the Board of Supervisors. Joshua Tree has CSA 29 and
a MAC which has proven very useful in their defense against the Town of
Yucca Valley's attempts to annex Joshua Tree. Yucca Mesa needs to do
the same.)

Bringing a Municipal Advisory
Council (MAC) to Yucca Mesa
What elected officials
represent unincorporated areas? In recognition of the need by
unincorporated communities for increased influence with their county
boards of supervisors, municipal advisory councils have been organized in
some counties under authorization of a 1971 legislative statute. Such a
council is an advisory body of local citizens appointed by the Board of
Supervisors with the purpose of representing the community to the board.
Although a Municipal Advisory Council is a governing body, it has no
fiscal authority or administrative organization. It does not
legislate. Because it lacks authority to implement its position
directly, it seeks to accomplish its goals through County government.
A Municipal Advisory
Council is subject to the Brown Act.
