Summary

Existing law prohibits a public agency from permitting a property owner to participate in programs relating to voluntary contractual assessments to finance certain improvements, unless the property owner is given the right to cancel the contractual assessment in a document, as provided. Existing law requires the document to contain specified information, including that if the property owner sends or delivers the written notice to cancel in some way other than mail, fax, or email, it must be delivered to a specified address no later than an unspecified date. This bill would instead require the document to provide that if the property owner sends or delivers the written notice to cancel in some way other than mail, fax, or email, it must be delivered to a specified address no later than midnight on the 3rd business day after whichever of specified events occurs last.
