All affected property owners have a right to appear and be heard at the public hearing and to
file written objections to the adoption of a resolution approving the Preliminary Assessment Roll
(Non -ad Valorem Assessment Roll) with the Board within 20 days of this notice based upon the
grounds that it contains items which cannot be properly assessed against property, that the
computation of the special assessment is incorrect, or there is a default or defect in the passage or
character of the resolution, or the Preliminary Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) is void or
voidable in whole or part, or that it exceeds the power of the Board. At the completion of the
hearing, the Board shall either annul or sustain or modify in whole or in part the Preliminary
Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) as indicated on such roll, either by confirming the
Preliminary Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) against any or all lots or parcels described
therein or by canceling, increasing, or reducing the same, according to the special benefits which the
Board decides each such lot or parcel has received or will receive on account of such improvements.
The assessment so made shall be final and conclusive as to each lot or parcel assessed unless proper
steps are taken within twenty (20) days with a court of competent jurisdiction to secure relief.
The Board will levy a Special Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) for operations and
maintenance of the water management system and the beautification of the recreational areas and
median areas, and maintenance of conservation and preserve areas utilizing an Equivalent
Residential Unit based methodology. The total assessment for maintenance of the water
management system, beautification of recreational facilities, and median areas, and maintenance of
conservation or preserve areas is $3,340,800.00 which equates to $438.70 per Equivalent Residential
Unit based on 7615.29 assessable units.
The Board will levy a Special Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) for the
establishment of Capital Funds for ambient noise management, the maintenance and restoration of
5

the conservation or preserve areas, U.S. 41 berm improvements within the Unit, street sign
replacement within the median areas, landscaping improvements and U.S. 41 entrance improvements
within the Unit, utilizing an Equivalent Residential Unit based methodology. The total assessment
for these Capital Funds is $534,300.00 which equates to $70.16 per Equivalent Residential Unit
based on 7615.29 assessable units.
The Special Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) will be collected by the Collier
County Tax Collector on the owner's Ad Valorem Tax Bill pursuant to Section 197.3632, Florida
Statutes. Failure to pay the Special Assessment (Non -ad Valorem Assessment) and your property
taxes will cause a tax certificate to be sold against the property, which may result in a loss of title to
the property.
Any person who decides to appeal a decision of the Board will need a record of the
proceedings pertaining thereto and therefore may need to ensure that a verbatim record of the
proceedings is made, which record includes the testimony and evidence upon which the appeal is to
be based.
