I found this link on MR and whether or not it is tax deductiblehttp://www.ftb.ca.gov/individuals/faq/net/909.shtml
It states that
Most of the time, you cannot deduct real estate taxes assessed for local benefits and improvements. However, you can deduct them if they are for maintenance, repair, or interest charges related to those benefits. Some examples of local benefits are:
Sidewalks
Streets
Sewer lines
Water mains
Public parking facilities
Other similar improvements
Isnt the melloroos in the newer Irvine communities for improvements?
