Board of County Commissioners Meeting Minutes - Final May 2, 2023 Resolution IV and the final assessment roll and to establish 3.25% as the interest rate for the assessment Attachments: Staff Report Resolution No IV and Final Assessment Roll Utilizing a PowerPoint presentation, Director of Utility Services Sean Lieske shared information about the water assessment for 161 parcels that were part of the septic to sewer project in northern Indian River County. He stated that the total assessed amount was $361,889.36, which averaged to $2,247.76 per parcel. The Board approved Resolution 2022-104 on December 20, 2022, which allowed for this amount to be placed on the tax roll. Director Lieske mentioned that when Resolutions 1 and 2 were passed in 2020, the interest rate was 3.25%. However, it had now increased to 7.5%, which would result in an additional cost of $525.45 for homeowners. To avoid incurring interest, homeowners could pay within 90 days. Vice Chairman Susan Adams recommended the Board honor the 3.25% interest as it was not the intent of the Board to make money off the residents. Director Lieske thanked his staff for their hard work throughout this project. A motion was made by Vice Chairman Adams, seconded by Chairman Earman, to approve 3.25% interest rate for the assessment and Resolution 2023-018 certifying "as -built" costs in connection with a special assessment project for water main extension confirming the special assessments in connection to serve 13700-13990 Ruffner Lane within River Trees; and 14365 78th Avenue, 14355 and 14370 80th Avenue within Ercildoune Heights Subdivision No. 1; and all properties within Ercildoune Heights subdivision no. 2; and all properties lying northwest of Bay Street (83rd Avenue), all properties within Blocks 1, 2, 3 and 4; 8240 133rd Court and 8225, 8245 and 8255 133rd Place within Block 14, 8230, 8240 and 8250 133rd Place, 8235, 8245 and 8255 134th Street within Block 15, 8240 134th Street, 13400 82nd Court, and 8235 and 8255 135th Street within Block 16, of the plat of Wauregan on Fleming Grant; and all properties within Blocks B-1 (less right-of-way), B-2, B-3 and B-4 (river front), all properties within Block b-2 (railroad front), all properties within Blocks 1, 2 and 3, and 12805 and 12835 82nd Court within Block 5, and 12820 and 12846 82nd Court within Block 6, and 12920 and 12940 82nd Court within Block 8, and 12948 and 12960 82nd Court within Block 9, and 12970 and 12980 82nd Court within Block 10, of the Townsite plat of Roseland, Florida, located within unincorporated Indian River County, Florida; providing for formal completion date, and date for payment without penalty and interest.
