TIME APPROXIMATE 1:30 P.M. ITEM BACKGROUND: The purpose of this item is for an Initial Assessment Resolution "IAR" for special assessments to cover a portion of the capital costs for the Twin Lakes Road Adaptation project in Key Largo, beginning in October 2025. Collection of the assessment(s)requires further approval of a Final Assessment Resolution at a future BOCC meeting. The assessment resolution contains (a) a specific list of properties to be assessed, and (b) the amount of the proposed assessment for each property. The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners has previously approved the design and construction of a sea level rise pilot project in Twin Lakes to lessen the frequency and severity of flooding and decrease predicted flood damage. In December 2024 resolution 502-2024 of the Monroe County BOCC passed on the potential use of the uniform method of collecting non-ad valorem special assessments levied within the County toward the cost of providing capital costs and/or operations and maintenance costs for roadway improvements, flood mitigation projects and addressing sea level rise projects for the Twin Lakes subdivision in Key Largo. The Countywide Roads Vulnerability Sea Level Rise Adaptation Study identifies 97 various roadway areas for adaptation improvements by the year 2045 to mitigate flooding at a cost of$1.6 Billion, of which 49 were recommended by the year 2025 at an estimated cost of$888 Million (in 2020 $'s). The property owners in the benefit areas where work may be performed will realize specific benefits as a result of road adaptation work, including but not limited to decreases in road flooding and 4826 maintaining access to their homes. The County is authorized under Section 125.01(1)(q) to establish municipal service benefit units within all or any part of the County, within which may be provided essential facilities from funds derived from special assessments on the properties located within the municipal service benefit unit(MSBU). Road adaptation work falls within the definition of"other essential facilities and municipal services." The property owners in the benefit area where work is being performed will realize benefits as a result of the road adaptation work. It is therefore appropriate for the County to collect funds to cover a part of the capital costs from the property owners who realize the special benefits of the road adaptation work in the form of special assessments,provided the cost is distributed so that they are fairly and reasonably apportioned to the subject properties. Collection of an assessment for the first time requires four steps: (1)Approval of an ordinance creating the MSBU and authorizing the special assessment; (2)Approval by the BOCC of a resolution signifying notice of intent to use the non-ad valorem method in F.S. 197.3632 to collect the assessments (on the tax bills); (3)Adoption of an Initial Assessment Resolution; and (4)Adoption of a Final Assessment Resolution at a public hearing. (1) On February 17, 2021, the BOCC adopted Ordinance No. 002-2021 (the"Ordinance"). The Ordinance created and established the MSBU and provided that the County could collect special assessments to pay for operations and maintenance costs, as well as capital costs, and that the costs of administration of the special assessment program could be paid for from the special assessments. (2)In November 2024 the BOCC adopted Resolution No. 502-2024,providing notice of intent to use uniform method of collecting non-ad valorem special assessments levied within the County for the provision of roadway improvements, flood mitigation projects and addressing sea level rise impacts for Twin Lakes beginning in October 2025. (3) The details of the amounts of the assessments and the properties on which the assessments would be levied are laid out in the Initial Assessment Resolution and will be confirmed in the Final Assessment Resolution.

It is hereby ascertained, determined and declared that: (A) Article VIII, Section 1 of the Florida Constitution, and Sections 125.01 and 125.66, Florida Statutes, grant to a board of county commissioners all powers of local self-government to perform county functions and to render services for county purposes in a manner not inconsistent with general law, or with special law approved by vote of the electors, and such power may be exercised by the enactment of county ordinances. 6 4838 (B) The Board of County Commissioners of Monroe County, Florida, has enacted Chapter 22, Article VII, Monroe County Code of Ordinances to authorize the imposition of Roadway Adaptation, Sea Level Rise and Flood Mitigation Assessments to allow payment of the cost to provide sea level rise and flooding mitigation improvements over a period of years instead of at the time of construction of the Roadway Adaptation system. (C) A reduction in the amount of costs due at the time of construction from the owners of property included in the Roadway Adaptation benefit area system by the availability of a Roadway Adaptation, Sea Level Rise and Flooding Mitigation Assessment option that permits the Roadway Adaptations and related costs to be paid over a period of years provides a special benefit to the property. (D) Inasmuch as the Roadway Adaptations and related costs provides a special benefit to each specific parcel of property to be assessed, the Roadway Adaptation Assessment provides an equitable method of funding the Roadway Adaptations and related costs. (E) In order to reduce the amount of the Roadway Adaptation Assessment, the County will provide an internal loan for a term up to 20 years with interest at 4.00 percent per annum. The County's interest rate is lower than the commercial interest rate otherwise available to the owners of property subject to the Roadway Adaptation Assessment. 7 4839 (F) The Board hereby finds and determines that the Assessments to be imposed in accordance with this Resolution provide an equitable method of funding the Roadway Adaptation by fairly and reasonably allocating the cost to specially benefitted property. (G) The Board hereby finds that each property within the proposed MSBU will be benefited by the construction of Roadway Adaptation in an amount not less than the Assessment imposed against such property, computed in the manner set forth in this Resolution. (H) The Board hereby finds that the Assessments to be imposed in accordance with this Resolution provide an equitable method of funding the construction of the Roadway Adaptation by fairly and reasonably allocating the cost to specially benefited property based upon the number of Dwelling Units and Parcel Units attributable to each Tax Parcel and each Tax Parcel's use of the roadway to access property. (I) It is fair and reasonable to use Dwelling Units and Parcel Units to apportion the Project Cost of the Roadway Adaptation because it is the presence or possible presence of a Dwelling Unit on each Parcel — rather than the size or value of the structure -- that drives the need for the Roadway Adaptation. ARTICLE II NOTICE AND PUBLIC HEARING SECTION 2.01. PUBLIC HEARING. A public hearing will be conducted by the Board at 9:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter can be heard, on June 18, 2025, at the County Commission Chambers in the Harvey Government Center, 1200 Truman 8 4840 Avenue, Key West, Florida, to consider (A) imposition of the Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessments, and (B) collection of the Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessments pursuant to the Uniform Assessment Collection Act. SECTION 2.02. NOTICE BY PUBLICATION. Upon completion of the Non- Ad Valorem Assessment Roll, the County Administrator shall publish a notice of the public hearing authorized by Section 2.01 hereof in the manner and the time provided in Section 3.04 of the Ordinance (Section 22-164, Monroe County Code of Ordinances). Such notice shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix B. SECTION 2.03. NOTICE BY MAIL. Upon completion of the initial Assessment Roll, the County Administrator shall, at the time and in the manner specified in Section 3.05 of the Ordinance (Section 22-165, Monroe County Code of Ordinances), provide first class mailed notice of the public hearing authorized by Section 2.01 hereof to each real property owner proposed to be assessed at the address indicated on the Tax Roll. Such notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) days prior to the public hearing, in accordance with Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes, and shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix C. ARTICLE III ROADWAY ADAPTATION ASSESSMENTS SECTION 3.01. ESTIMATED CAPITAL COST. The estimated Capital Cost for the Roadway Adaptation is approximately $2,599,993.00. The Project Cost of the 9 4841 Roadway Adaptation will be funded through the imposition of Assessments against property located in the MSBU in the manner set forth in Article IV hereof. SECTION 3.02. NON-AD VALOREM ASSESSMENT ROLL. The County Administrator is hereby directed to prepare the preliminary Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll in the manner provided in the Ordinance. The preliminary Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll shall be maintained by the County Administrator and open to public inspection. The foregoing shall not be construed to require that the Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll be in printed form if the amount of the Roadway Adaptation Assessment for each Tax Parcel can be determined by use of a computer terminal available to the public. SECTION 3.03. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY TO BE ASSESSED. The Tax Parcels against which Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessments shall be imposed are described in Appendix A. ARTICLE IV CAPITAL COST ASSESSMENTS SECTION 4.01. IMPOSITION OF ASSESSMENTS.

The first annual Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessment will be included on the ad valorem tax bill to be mailed in November 2025. When imposed, the Capital Roadway 10 4842 Adaptation Assessment for each Fiscal Year shall constitute a lien upon such Tax Parcels pursuant to the Ordinance. SECTION 4.02. PREPAYMENT AMOUNTS. The Capital Roadway Adaptation for each Tax Parcel to be assessed is set forth in Appendix A. A Prepayment Amount for each Tax Parcel shall be computed annually, as provided in Section 4.03(E) hereof. SECTION 4.03. COMPUTATION OF ANNUAL ASSESSMENTS. The annual Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessment shall be computed for each Tax Parcel in the manner set forth below. (A) Annual Roadway Adaptation Fee Payment. The "Annual Roadway Adaptation Fee" for each Tax Parcel is set forth in Appendix A hereof and is equal to the debt service on the Roadway Adaptation Fee for such Tax Parcel amortized in equal annual installments over the term designated in Section 4.01 hereof for such Tax Parcel with interest at 4.00 percent per annum. (B) Collection Cost. The "Collection Cost" shall be computed each Fiscal Year for each Tax Parcel by (1) dividing (a) the Prepayment Amount for such Tax Parcel, by (b) the sum of the aggregate Prepayment Amount, and (2) multiplying the result by the estimated cost to be incurred by the County during any Fiscal Year in connection with collection of the Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessments. (C) Statutory Discount. The "Statutory Discount" shall be computed for each Tax Parcel as the amount allowed by law as the maximum discount for early payment of ad 11 4843 valorem taxes and non-ad valorem assessments, such amount to be calculated by deducting (1) the sum of(a) the Annual Assessment Fee Payment, and (b) the Collection Cost, from (2) the amount computed by dividing (a) the sum of (i) the Annual Assessment Fee Payment, and (ii) the Collection Cost, by (b) the Statutory Discount factor. (D) Annual Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessment. The annual Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessment for each Tax Parcel shall be computed as the sum of(1) the Annual Assessment Fee Payment, (2) the Collection Cost, and (3) the Statutory Discount. (E) Adjusted Prepayment Amount. Upon certification of the Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll for each Fiscal Year, the Prepayment Amount for each Tax Parcel shall be recomputed by deducting (1) the principal amortized by Annual Assessment Fee Payment determined in Section 4.03(A) above and included on the Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll for the Tax Parcel, from (2) the Prepayment Amount utilized to compute the annual Roadway Adaptation Assessment included on the Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll for such Tax Parcel. The new Prepayment Amount shall become effective upon payment of the ad valorem tax bill which includes the Roadway Adaptation Assessment certified for such Fiscal Year. SECTION 4.04. PREPAYMENT OPTION. (A) The owner of each Tax Parcel subject to the Capital Roadway Adaptation Assessments shall be entitled to prepay all future unpaid annual Roadway Adaptation 12 4844 Assessments upon payment of an amount equal to the sum of(1) the Prepayment Amount for such Tax Parcel, and (2) interest on the Prepayment Amount, from the date of the most recent ad valorem tax bill, computed at the rate of 4.00 percent per annum. The amount of all prepayments made pursuant to this Subsection 4.04(A) shall be final. (B) During any period commencing on the date the annual Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll is certified for collection pursuant to the Uniform Assessment Collection Act and ending on the next date on which unpaid ad valorem taxes become delinquent, the County may reduce the amount required to prepay the future unpaid annual Roadway Adaptation Assessments for the Tax Parcel by the amount of the Roadway Adaptation Assessment that has been certified for collection with respect to such Tax Parcel. SECTION 4.05. MANDATORY PREPAYMENT. (A) The owner of a Tax Parcel subject to the Roadway Adaptation Assessment shall immediately prepay all future unpaid annual Roadway Adaptation Assessments for such Tax Parcel if (1) the Tax Parcel is acquired by a public entity through condemnation, negotiated sale or otherwise, or (2) a tax certificate has been issued and remains outstanding in respect of the Tax Parcel and the County, at its sole option, elects to accelerate the Roadway Adaptation Assessment. Failure by the property owner to comply with this Subsection 4.05(A), will result in the remaining Prepayment Amount (plus interest computed at the rate utilized to compute the Annual Assessment Fee Payment in Subsection 4.04(A) hereof) being placed on the Tax Parcel's ad valorem tax 13 4845 bill for the next Fiscal Year, in addition to its share of the Collection Cost and Statutory Discount. (B) The amount required to prepay the future unpaid annual Roadway Adaptation Assessments will be equal to the Prepayment Amount for such Tax Parcel. The amount of all prepayments made pursuant to this Section 4.05 shall be final. (C) During any period commencing on the date the annual Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll is certified for collection pursuant to the Uniform Assessment Collection Act and ending on the next date on which unpaid ad valorem taxes become delinquent, the County may reduce the amount required to prepay the future unpaid annual Roadway Adaptation Assessments for the Tax Parcel by the amount of the Roadway Adaptation Assessment that has been certified for collection with respect to such Tax Parcel. SECTION 4.06. REALLOCATION UPON FUTURE SUBDIVISION. (A) Upon subdivision of any Tax Parcel subject to the Roadway Adaptation Assessment, and compliance with the conditions set forth below, the Prepayment Amount for such Tax Parcel shall be reallocated among the subdivided parcels. (B) In order to have the Prepayment Amount for such Tax Parcel reallocated in connection with any such subdivision, the owner shall be required to apply to the County and comply with each of the following conditions: 14 4846 (1) a recorded plat, approved site plan or comparable document must be provided to the County in sufficient detail to describe adequately the location of the Tax Parcel and the individual parcels in the proposed subdivision; (2) the Property Appraiser must have assigned distinct ad valorem property tax identification numbers to each individual subdivided parcel; (3) a proposed reallocation of the Prepayment Amount to each individual parcel must be provided to the County; provided, however, that no portion of the Prepayment Amount may be reallocated to property proposed for dedication to the public or to common use of the subdivided parcels; and (4) the property owner shall pay an assessment reallocation fee to the County for each individual parcel resulting from the subdivision, in an amount to be established by resolution of the Board. (C) If the owner of any Tax Parcel subject to the Roadway Adaptation Assessment subdivides such Tax Parcel and fails to comply with the foregoing conditions, the County shall reallocate the Prepayment Amount among the subdivided parcels. It is hereby found and determined that the foregoing method of reallocating the Prepayment Amount among subdivided parcels is fair and reasonable, taking into consideration the opportunity for reallocation available to the owner and the requirement to provide adequate security for the County. (D) Upon reallocation of the Prepayment Amount for any Tax Parcel among subdivided parcels, the Annual Assessment Fee Payment for such Tax Parcel shall be 15 4847 reallocated to the subdivided parcels proportionally to the reallocated Prepayment Amounts.

The cost of the Roadway Adaptations will be funded by assessments against the property within the Twin Lakes Municipal Service Benefit Unit. The assessment for each tax parcel will be based upon the total number of dwelling units or parcel units attributed to each tax parcel on the date the assessment is imposed. A more specific description of the improvements and the method of computing the assessment for each parcel of property are set forth in the Initial Assessment Resolution adopted by the County Commission on May 21, 2025. Copies of the Ordinance, Initial Assessment Resolution and the preliminary Non-Ad Valorem Assessment Roll are available for inspection at the County Administrator's office, located at The Historic Gato Cigar Factory, 1100 Simonton Street, Suite 2-205, Key West, Florida.

C-2 4858 The estimated Capital Cost for the Roadway Adaptation is approximately $2,599,993.00 The assessment project will be financed by the County. This will permit the cost attributable to your property to be amortized over a period of 20 years. However, you may choose to prepay your assessment in full ($25,000 per dwelling/parcel unit) and avoid the additional financing cost. Please do not send payment now. If the assessments are imposed, you will receive a separate notice of the date and place for payment.

The maximum annual assessment is estimated to be $2,106 per dwelling/parcel unit.

The County intends to include the annual assessment on your ad valorem tax bill, commencing with the tax bill to be mailed to you in November 2025. Failure to pay your assessments will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which may result in a loss of title. The County intends to collect $218,986.00 in assessments annually, inclusive of all administrative and statutory discounts, over the next 20 years for this project. The Board of County Commissioners will hold a public hearing at 9:00 am, or as soon thereafter as the matter can be heard, on June 18, 2025, at the County Commission Chambers in the Murray Nelson Government Center; Key Largo, Florida, for the purpose of receiving public comment on the proposed assessments and collection of the assessments on the ad valorem tax roll.
