Fee exists?
On another note, going back to the project to resurface all of the trails (MMPs) north of 466 from concrete to asphalt around '08-'09: Wasn't that primarily funded by the VCCDD, possibly in partnership with the AAC? Maybe someone who knows a little about how that work was funded can comment on this project. Having said all that, however, I also seem to recall most recently when there were estimates being tossed around for the MMP striping, those estimates were broken down by CDD, so it appears that some types of work on the MMPs within each CDD is borne by that individual CDD.
Will be interesting to see what type of reception this fellow gets at the AAC meeting on Wed.

You are correct in your comments that the cost should be borne by CCD1 and budgeted through the bond maintenance assessment. But this is the rub. The CCD1 supervisor wants to pass this cost on to the AAC. I do not agree with this request. If the AAC accepted this request, what is now stopping Districts 2 - 4 asking the AAC to become responsible for their portions of the MMPs? If the AAC were to become responsible for all the MMPs north of 466, I could see an increase in the amenity fee.
I think it is important to point out the MMP in question is not like those that parallel Morse Blvd, El Camino or Buena Vista Blvd. This path runs basically from Hacienda Hills CC to Del Mar Ave near Spanish Springs. I didn't even know this part existed until I was playing golf at Hacienda Hills and asked my playing partner why all the folks with dogs were walking on the golf course. These paths are used mainly by CCD1 residents and they should be responsible for the upkeep.
