Special Districts Sphere of Influence Maps
Special districts are local agencies that provide public services such as fire protection, sewers, water, and storm drainage.  California has over 3,300 special districts.  Stanislaus County has 74 of these districts, each with its own LAFCO-adopted Sphere of Influence.

(Note:  This list only includes those special districts which Stanislaus LAFCO is the principal LAFCO.  Although other districts may overlap into Stanislaus County, the principal county is that which holds the majority of the assessed value.)
