against certain Assessed Property within St. Lucie County to fund solid waste collection, disposal and
administrative services, facilities or programs.
(B) The imposition of a Solid Waste Service Assessment for solid waste collection,
disposal and administrative services, facilities or programs is an equitable and efficient method of
allocating and apportioning the Solid Waste Costs incurred by the County each year among parcels
of Assessed Property.
(C) On September 14, 2004, the Board adopted Resolution No. 04-201 which authorized
the imposition of Solid Waste Service Assessments to fund solid waste collection, disposal and

(D) The County has imposed and collected Solid Waste Service Assessments each Fiscal
Year since to fund the Solid Waste Costs.
1
(E) On July 5, 2022,the Board adopted the Preliminary Assessment Resolution containing
a brief and general description of the solid waste collection, disposal and administrative services,
facilities or programs to be provided to Assessed Property, describing the method of apportioning
the Solid Waste Costs to compute the Solid Waste Service Assessment for the Fiscal Year beginning
October 1, 2022 ("Fiscal Year 2022-23"), designating the rate of assessment for such Fiscal Year and
the maximum assessment rate which may be adopted in future Fiscal Years without further notice,
directing the preparation of an Assessment Roll for the Residential Property subject to the Solid
Waste Service Assessments and a separate Assessment Roll for any Residential Property that is
delinquent in payments of the Solid Waste Cost for prior Fiscal Years, and directing the mailing and

(H) Such public hearing was held on September 6, 2022, and comments and objections of

disposal and administrative services,facilities and programs contemplated by the Ordinance and the

(E) For Fiscal Year 2022-23,the Solid Waste Cost is estimated to be$5,769,695.64. Such

classification as Residential Property and the number of Dwelling Units for such parcels. An annual
rate of assessment equal to $279.96 for each Dwelling Unit is hereby approved for Fiscal Year 2022-
23. For Fiscal Years thereafter, the Solid Waste Service Assessments may be imposed at a rate not
to exceed $280.00 per Dwelling Unit without further notice to affected property owners unless the
circumstances described in Section 12(B) of the Preliminary Assessment Resolution apply. Notice

owed or their inclusion on the subsequent years Tax Bill. In addition,the Building Department shall
