On July 6, 2000, the City of Lodi entered into an annexation agreement with the Mokelumne Rural We District that committed the City to pay the Fire District $27,917.96 annually for 10 years as reimbursement for lost property tax revenue. The annexation of the property, designated as the Mondavi Annexation Area, required that the property be withdrawn from the District, thus transferring the authority to receive property tax revenues from the Mokelumne Rural Fire District to the City of Lodi. The District, however, remains the initial responder to any structure fire call within the detached area. The City believes that it is in the best interest of the City to compensate the District for its lost revenues.
