Two property owners have requested annexation into CSA No. 25 – Keswick Water.
DISCUSSIONCounty Service Area No. 25 – Keswick Water (CSA No. 25) provides water in the Keswick area. Two property owners have requested annexation into CSA No. 25. One parcel already receives water service from CSA No. 25 without actually being in the district. The other has an unreliable well. The attached resolution would initiate an application to LAFCO. The process will likely result in tax exchange negotiations with Shasta Community Services District.
