Once an updated submittal is received, the item will be provided to the Board for approval. Please take into consideration the FY16 Bluewater Bay MSBU budget does not address the remaining payment due the County for sidewalks completed and invoiced November, 2014 in the amount of $14,720 nor does it address Reserves.

Based upon my review and discussions with staff, it appears that there is a contemplated increase in the special assessment for the Bluewater Bay MSBU. Based upon the ordinance and my understanding of the history of this assessment, it is collected on the ad valorem tax bill. The statutory requirements for the collection of an assessment on the tax bill are contained in Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. As there is an increase in this assessment, to approve it and place it on the tax bill, there will need to be a public hearing held and that meeting will be required to be noticed by individual mailed notice of the increase to each property owner subject to the assessment and a newspaper advertisement. The statute sets forth what is required to be included in each of the notices. I also note that though the ordinance designates the BOCC as the governing body of the district, it delegates to responsibility of setting the assessment to the Board of Directors. Apart from my legal concerns about this delegation, it appears that for the current year, that the Board of Directors will need to comply with Florida Statutes to increase the assessment amount. I have attached a copy of the statutory provision for your assistance. We are willing to assist you in this process and if you have any questions, please contact either Lynn or myself. On another note, having gone through the ordinance and as we discussed several months ago, I believe the Ordinance will need to have some revisions to address some issues.   Perhaps after we get through this budget process, we can schedule a time to discuss the ordinance and possible changes.
