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 in 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 from the collection and
disposal of solid waste. 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 collection and
disposal of solid waste based on the methodology of the number of equivalent residential units
located on the property. In accordance with Florida Statute 197.3632, the total assessment for
collection and disposal of solid waste shall not exceed $330.00 per equivalent residential unit per

property.
