1. My property is currently on a septic tank. Will I be required to connect to the City's sewer system?

No. Properties with functioning septic systems will not be required to connect. Access to the City's sewer system will be at the discretion and benefit of the property owner.

2. Will my property taxes increase?

No. There will be no change in the amount of property taxes paid. Property owners in the City pay the same rate of property taxes that property owners pay in the unincorporated County areas. Annexation will ensure that a greater portion of the property taxes that you currently pay will be reinvested back into the local community.

3. What services will be changed as a result of annexation?

Fire protection services will be unchanged. The Fontana Police Department instead of the County Sheriff will provide public safety services and the levels of police services will be increased. Some expanded City services that residents can expect include: graffiti removal, street sweeping, tree trimming, street improvements and maintenance, and sewer availability.
