§ 19-841. Findings.

(a)

It is necessary to provide for the financing of the design/planning and construction of a paving, water and sewage collection system to be constructed, owned and operated by the South Santa Rosa Utilities, Inc., for the provision of water and sewer on Ponderosa Drive and for road paving and stormwater management of Ponderosa Drive.

(b)

The Santa Rosa County Board of County Commissioners finds that the most equitable method of providing such funding is through the creation of the Ponderosa Drive Design/Planning and Construction of Paving, Water and Sewer Municipal Service Benefit Unit (unit) to include the properties depicted in the attached map.

The unit will utilize non-ad valorem assessments to insure that all property owners benefiting from the improvements shall fund the complete cost of such service.

Santa Rosa County is authorized by F.S. chs. 125 and 197 to implement the provisions of this article.

(c)

It is the purpose of this article to implement the provisions of F.S. chs. 125 and 197 and the covenants contained in any ordinance, resolution, or indenture securing the issuance of financing for the project. This article is adopted under the authority and power granted the board under F.S. § 125.01, and F.S. § 197.3631, and other applicable laws.
