What do you know about this?
Only what's declared in Chapter 32 of the HCC:
Section 32-7. Types of special improvements.
A district may be established to finance the purchase, construction, installation, expansion, improvement or rehabilitation of any real or other tangible property with a useful life estimated by the council to be five years or longer. Special improvements may be privately owned if the council determines that they serve a public purpose. Special improvements need not be physically located within the district.
Examples of special improvements which may be financed by a district include, but
are not limited to, the following:
(a) Streets, roads, highways, pedestrian malls, sidewalks or alleyways, including but not limited to, grading, paving or otherwise improving the foregoing.
Basically, petition for the creation of the district (HCC 32-19), then stipulate how the improvments will be paid for (HCC 32-20), publish a hearing notice (HCC 32-22), write an ordinance (HCC 32-29), levy a special tax to pay for it (HCC 32-32) secured by lien against the properties involved (HCC 32-32©).
Less clear: will County be more accountable than HPPOA, and would the SID allow County crews/equipment to build/maintain roads. Chapter 32 is there for a reason, either nobody has thought to take this route, or someone tried and it was a spectacular fail.
You can all go back to arguing amongst yourselves now.
