33002
. (a) In determining the amount of a special benefit
assessment, the board may measure the benefit to real property in the
benefit district or zones therein by the parcel area of unimproved
real property and by the parcel area and the floor area of real
property and improvements thereto of improved real property, as
deemed appropriate by a resolution adopted by a two-thirds vote of
the members of the board.
(b) The special benefit assessment constitutes a charge imposed on
particular real property for a district project of direct benefit to
that property, and does not constitute ad valorem taxes or any other
form of general tax levy applying a given rate to the assessed
valuation of all taxable property within the district.
(c) The district shall possess all powers necessary for,
incidental to, or convenient for the collection, enforcement,
administration, or distribution of the special benefit assessment in
accordance with California law.
(d) The revenue from a special benefit assessment, which is
imposed pursuant to this chapter, or from bonds secured by such a
special benefit assessment, for the purpose of financing a rail
transit station or rail transit related facility located within the
benefit district, shall be used only for financing of the facility
for which it was levied, and that revenue shall not be used for any
other purpose or the payment of any other expense of the district,
including, but not limited to, transit, transportation, or operating
expense.
