The Chevron North Meadows Maintenance District was formed July 17, 1989 and amended September 18, 1988 by Board Resolutions #37-89 and #44-89 respectively, through the 1972 Landscape and Lighting Act. This assessment district is specifically for the maintenance of approximately 6 acres of streetscape landscaping within the North Meadows development area in the Oildale CDP. This assessment district does not include any North of the River Recreation and Park District park lands. New residential development within the Chevron North Meadows boundary are required to join the Chevron North Meadows Maintenance District as a condition for recording residential tract and parcel maps.

When developers propose to construct residential development within the Chevron North Meadows boundary, they are required to complete the form ‘Agreement to Join Chevron North Meadows Maintenance District and Waive Proposition 218 Voting Rights’ and submit it to NOR. Planning and Construction staff then reviews the application and when approved and the Quimby fees/land have been accounted for, completes the ‘Certificate Payment of Fees and Completion of Requirements Related to the Chevron North Meadows Maintenance District’ form. This final form serves as proof to the County of Kern that NOR park and recreation conditions have been met and that the tract, parcel map or other instrument has satisfied conditions of approval as requested by North of the River Recreation and Park District.

Each fiscal year from March through June, Planning and Construction staff hold public meetings regarding annual review of the assessment district based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Information regarding these board meetings can be found here and public notices are found here.
