In 2015, the residents of Winding Hollow subdivision petitioned to become the City’s third Public Improvement District (PID). The special district, established by State statute, levies an additional assessment on all properties within specific boundaries. Typically a percentage of the appraised value of the property, the assessment is reflected on the annual tax statement and confers a special benefit on definable parts of the improvement district.

The Winding Hollow PID has a current assessment of 0.10¢ per $100 valuation. Example:

• Appraised value $150,000 divided by $100 multiplied by $0.10 equals $150 per year

The PID is governed by five, at-large directors elected by residents and appointed by the Cedar Hill City Council to serve staggered terms of two years, subject to the terms and conditions of the City Council approved by-laws established for the district.
