§ 19-531. Findings.

(a)

It is necessary to provide for the financing of the construction of a sewage collection and water system, to be constructed, owned and operated by the South Santa Rosa Utilities, Inc., for the provision of water and sewer on Purdue Lane.

(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 Purdue Lane Water/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 sewer 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.
