Melrose Avenue is the existing boundary line between the spheres of influence of Carlsbad and San Marcos. The City Council was unwilling to approve the annexation of the street only, because of the fact that it would require Carlsbad to pay the total cost of maintenance of the future arterial highway. The City Council requested that Carlsbad offer to annex the 30 acres east of Melrose Avenue to the City of Carlsbad along with Melrose Avenue. Carlsbad would only be willing to annex said property if the County is willing to give the City a fair split of property taxes upon annexation. In this case, since the City would be picking up an additional maintenance cost which the County would otherwise bear, we feel the City should receive 48% of the County property tax. After you have had a chance to look into this proposal, please call and we will pursue the possibility of processing an annexation.
