establishing the Duck Key Security District allows a ten percent(10%) increase over the previous
year or increases to no more than $300.00 per improved lot or $30 per unimproved lot without the
need for a referendum. The initial special assessment was set at$200.00 per improved lot and $20.00
per unimproved lot and was increased by 10% for the first time for FY 17, raising the assessment to
$220.00 per improved lot and $22 per unimproved lot. The rates were again increased by 10% (it is
slightly less for round number purposes) for FY 18, raising the assessment to $242 per improved lot
and $24 per unimproved lot. The special assessment for FY 19 was increased and approved at$266
per improved lot and $26 per unimproved lot. The special assessment for FY 20 was increased and
