County Service Areas (CSA)
County Service Areas (CSAs) are special districts set up by property owners. They fund local services that are not related to roads. These services include landscape care, parks, fire prevention, and emergency medical services.
CSAs take about two to three years to form. The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) reviews and approves them. A majority of property owners must agree to form the district.
Administration and Services
CSAs are run by County departments and other agencies. The service type decides who runs each CSA. More details are available on the LAFCO Special District Profiles & Maps webpage.
The Department of Public Works Private Road and Landscape Maintenance Division runs two CSAs in Rancho San Diego. These CSAs provide landscape and open space care.
- CSA 26A (Cottonwood Village) was formed in 1980
- CSA 26B (Monte Vista) was formed in 1986
Both CSAs are paid for by property taxes. The Department of Public Works performs the maintenance work.
