The purpose of the public hearing is to consider the adoption of a resolution authorizing Eastport Community Development District to use the uniform method of collection to collect its non-ad valorem maintenance assessments, as provided in Section 197.3632 F.S. Eastport Community Development District intends to use the uniform method of collection for a period of more than one year.

The uniform method provided for in Chapter 197.3632 F.S. authorizes the District to utilize the services of the property appraiser and tax collector in levying its non-ad valorem assessments regardless of when the assessments were initially imposed or whether they have previously been collected by another method. The non-ad valorem assessments will appear under a separate section of the property tax bill. The Districts non-ad valorem assessment(s) shall be subject to the same discounts and penalties and the issuance and sale of tax certificates and tax deeds for non-payment as ad valorem taxes. The non-payment of said non-ad valorem assessments will subject the property to the potential loss of title. Interested parties may appear at the public hearing to be heard regarding the use of the uniform method of collecting such non-ad valorem assessments.
Each person who decides to appeal any decision made by the Board with respect to any matter considered at the meeting is advised that person will need a record of the proceedings and that accordingly, the person may need to ensure that a verbatim record of the proceedings is made at their expense including the testimony and evidence upon which such appeal is to be based.
