The purpose of this chapter is to provide a means whereby any local agency may form maintenance districts within which property may be assessed to pay the costs and expenses of improving and maintaining open spaces which the local agency has acquired pursuant to Sections 6950 to 6954, inclusive, and to maintain such open spaces in a way that will reduce the danger of fire which exists when open areas covered with vegetation remain in their natural state.
