Owners of sixteen (16) lots within Carlton Country Estates have submitted petitions requesting the District boundaries be expanded to include their subdivision. These petitions represent a majority of the property owners. Although Chapter 87-510 provides for a referendum of the affected property owners to be held in order to expand the District boundaries, in the past the Board has waived the referendum requirement following a public hearing on the issue if a majority of the affected property owners submitted petitions requesting inclusion in the District. Copies of the Clerk's Certification of Receipt of Petitions to Expand District Boundaries and the proposed resolution providing for waiver of the referendum and expansion of the District boundaries to include Carlton Country Estates are attached to this agenda item. Notice of the December 15, 2020 public hearing was published in The News Tribune on November 28 and 29, 2020. PREVIOUS ACTION: On November 10, 2020, the Board granted permission to advertise the proposed resolution for a public hearing on December 15, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. or as son thereafter as may be heard. FINANCIAL IMPACT: If the resolution is approved, Carlton Country Estates will be added to the tax roll for Mosquito Control District beginning with Fiscal Year 2021-2022. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board adopt the proposed resolution as drafted.
