SECTION 4. FINDINGS.It is hereby ascertained, determined and declared that:
(A) Culverts direct and channel the flow of stormwater under driveways, roads,
sidewalks and other obstructions and are an integral component of proper stormwater
management by preventing hazardous flood conditions on public rights of way and thereby
ensuring safe passage for vehicles and pedestrians during and in the aftermath of rainfall events.
(B) Culverts may fail over time due to maintenance, environmental or installation
issues, failures related to capacity and volume causing the erosion of the soil around or under
2
them, and structural or material failures that cause culverts to fail due to collapse or corrosion of
the materials from which they are made.
(C) Culvert failure can lead to localized flooding which may impede safe conditions
of ingress and egress for owners and residents of property in the affected area, the traveling
public, visitors,emergency responders and other public service providers.
(D) In many instances,culverts are constructed or located to serve as access to private
property such that the culvert is owned by,and the maintenance,improvement and repair of the
culvert is the responsibility of,private property owners.
(E) Such owners may recognize the potentially dangerous conditions caused by
culvert failure but nonetheless lack the resources or ability to pay for improvements or repairs.
(F) In light of the paramount public purpose served by proper management of
stormwater and the prevention of hazardous flood conditions on public rights of way, the Board
adopted the Assessment Ordinance to establish a program pursuant to which eligible Property
Owners can apply for and receive funding to improve or repair culverts and then repay such
funding through the imposition of a non-ad valorem special assessment against the improved
property, collected in annual installments pursuant to the Uniform Assessment Collection Act.
(G) The County is authorized by Article VIII, Section 1 of the State Constitution and
Sections 125.01 and 197.3632, Florida Statutes, to provide for the imposition and collection of
charges in the form of non-ad valorem special assessments.
(H) Participation in the culvert improvement program established by the Assessment
Ordinance is voluntary,with the Culvert Assessments imposed solely upon the request of and at
3
the option of eligible Property Owners who have entered into a Financing Agreement with the
County.
(I) The special benefits conveyed to Assessed Parcels by the Culvert Improvements
include, but are not limited to, increased use, enjoyment and marketability, and remediating
potentially hazardous conditions for ingress and egress to the property by Property Owners,
emergency response personnel, public service providers and others, resulting from failure of
existing culvert facilities and development of the property from its natural state.Assessed Parcels
are further benefitted by the Property Owner's ability to finance the acquisition and installation
of Culvert Improvements over time through the imposition of Culvert Assessments.
(J) The Culvert Assessment imposed against the Assessed Parcel(s) comprising the
Culvert 2023-06 MSBU is based upon the actual cost of the Culvert Improvements proposed for
the respective Parcels, together with an amount not to exceed 5% of the Culvert Assessment to
cover overhead expenses including but not limited to recording fees, credit reports and title
searches. The total amount of the Culvert Assessment is set forth in the Financing Agreement for
each Parcel and agreed upon by the Property Owner(s).
(K) Such method of calculating the Culvert Assessment for Assessed Parcels is
therefore a fair and reasonable method for apportioning the costs of the Culvert Improvements
and the special benefit conveyed thereby among Assessed Parcels which bears a reasonable
relationship to the cost of providing the improvements.
(L) The County has received a Financing Agreement signed by the Property Owner(s)
for each Parcel comprising the Culvert 2023-06 MSBU.
4
(M) The Board hereby finds and determines that the Culvert Assessments to be
imposed in accordance with this Resolution provide a proper and equitable method of funding
the Culvert Improvements by fairly and reasonably apportioning the costs and benefits thereof
among Assessed Parcels.
(N) As required by the terms of the Assessment Ordinance,notice of a public hearing
has been published and mailed to each affected Property Owner notifying such Property Owner
of the opportunity to be heard. The proof of publication and an affidavit of mailing are attached
hereto as Appendices A and B respectively.
(0) Such public hearing was duly held on July 18, 2023 and comments and objections
of all interested persons have been heard and considered as required by law.
(P) The Assessments contemplated hereunder will be imposed by the Board, not the
Property Appraiser or Tax Collector. Any activity of the Property Appraiser or Tax Collector
under the provisions of this Resolution shall be construed solely as ministerial.
(Q) The special benefits derived by Assessed Parcels from the Culvert Improvements,
exceed the amount of the Assessments levied and imposed hereunder. The Assessment for any
Parcel subject thereto does not exceed the proportional benefits that such Parcel will receive
compared to any other Parcel.
(R) The Board hereby finds and determines that the Assessments to be imposed in
accordance with this Resolution provide an equitable method of funding the Culvert
improvements by fairly and reasonably allocating the costs associated therewith among specially
benefited property.

SECTION 5. RATIFICATION AND CONFIRMATION OF PRIOR ACTIONS.
Any and all prior actions of the Board, the Assessment Coordinator and County staff associated
with creation of the Culvert 2023-06 MSBU and the imposition of Assessments therein to fund the
Culvert Improvements, including but not limited to the provision of mailed and published
notices,are hereby approved,ratified and confirmed in their entirety.
SECTION 6. ESTABLISHMENT OF CULVERT 2023-06 MSBU. The Culvert
2023-06 MSBU, the description of which is set forth in Appendix C hereto, is hereby established.
SECTION 7. ASSESSMENTS.
(A) Culvert Assessments are hereby imposed against the Assessed Parcel(s) included
on the Assessment Roll for the Culvert 2023-06 MSBU.
(B) The total amount of the Culvert Assessment and the maximum annual installment
of the Culvert Assessment for each Parcel, including annual interest at the rate of 2.5% and
Collection Costs, are included in Appendix C and the Financing Agreement for each Parcel.
(C) The Culvert Assessment shall constitute a lien against Assessed Parcels equal in
rank and dignity with the liens of all state, county, district or municipal taxes and other non-ad
valorem assessments. Except as otherwise provided by law,such lien shall be superior in dignity
to all other liens, titles and claims,until paid.
SECTION 8. APPROVAL OF ASSESSMENT ROLL. The Assessment Roll,
which is on file in the office of the Assessment Coordinator and incorporated herein by reference,
is hereby approved. A copy of the Assessment Roll shall be retained by the Assessment
Coordinator and shall be available for public inspection.The foregoing shall not be construed to
require that the Assessment Roll be in printed form if the amount of the Assessment for each
6
Parcel can be determined by use of a computer terminal or internet access available to the public.
SECTION 9. COLLECTION OF ASSESSMENTS.
(A) The owner(s) of Assessed Parcels may prepay the Culvert Assessment in full at
any time by paying the principal amount owing on the Culvert Assessment,and accrued interest
through the prepayment date,less a credit for the principal and interest component of any annual
installment not yet paid but certified for collection pursuant to the Uniform Assessment
Collection Act. Parcels for which the Assessment has been paid in full shall be removed from the
Assessment Roll prior to its certification to the Tax Collector.
(B) Assessments which are not prepaid shall be collected in not more than ten (10)
annual installments pursuant to the Assessment Ordinance and Uniform Assessment Collection
Act, commencing with the property tax bill mailed in November 2023. The Assessment
Coordinator is authorized to cause the certification and delivery of the Assessment Roll to the
Tax Collector by September 15, 2023 in the manner prescribed by the Uniform Assessment
Collection Act.
(C) The principal balance of the Assessment shall not be accelerated upon sale or
conveyance of Assessed Parcels but may be paid in full at any time at the option of the owner
thereof.
SECTION 10. EFFECT OF RESOLUTION. The adoption of this Annual
Assessment Resolution shall be the final adjudication of the issues presented herein including,
but not limited to, the method by which the Assessments are computed and apportioned, the
Assessment Roll, and the rate of Assessment unless proper steps are initiated in a court of
competent jurisdiction to secure relief within twenty (20) days from the date of the Board's
7
adoption of this Resolution.
