About Us
Morro Hills Community Services District (MHCSD) maintains approximately 6 miles of roads within its boundaries which encompasses about 1,050 acres and contains 419 separate parcels some of which are owned by the same interests. The largest size parcel is 21.67 acres, the average parcel size is 2.50 acres and the median size is 1.75 acres.
MHCSD Is a local government agency established to perform prescribed functions within limited boundaries. MHCSD (commonly called the Road Board) was initiated by petition of 32 residents in the area in 1960 to build and maintain roads that the county was unwilling to provide at that time. It was formally created by resolution of the San Diego County Board of Supervisors on March 21, 1961. The function of MHCSD was to build and now maintain a little more than 6 miles of road surface and related drainage facilities.

The road right of way is 60 feet wide (measured 30 feet to each side from the road center line). A permit is required for any property owner improvement (such as driveway, entry features, and landscaping) within the right of way. The roads for which the District has responsibility are:
- Morro Hills Road
- San Jacinto Circle East
- San Jacinto Circle West to 800 feet south of Morro Hills
- San Jacinto Terrace for 580 feet north of San Jacinto Circle West
- Sleeping Indian Road from Oceanside city limit to Burma Road

A Board of Directors consisting of five volunteer members elected to four-year terms governs the MHCSD. These volunteers serve without compensation. Directors must be registered voters and live within the District. MHCSD has no employees. Currently the Board meets quarterly on the first Monday of the designated month. The meeting agenda and location is posted 3 days prior to each meeting on this web site and on the back of the Morro Hills entry sign at Morro Hills and Olive Hill Roads. The public is welcomed to attend Board meetings.
The MHCSD receives substantially all of its revenue from the County roughly equivalent to about 4% of the 1% property tax levied on all parcels within the District. This source of income currently amounts to about $100,000 per year. Additional small amounts come from state grants for homeowners' property tax exemptions and permit fees.
