The District is a unit of special-purpose local government responsible for providing infrastructure improvements for lands within the District. The infrastructure improvements (“Improvements”) are currently expected to include, but are not limited to, roadway improvements, a stormwater management system, water and wastewater utilities, hardscape, landscape, irrigation, amenities, underground conduit, and wetland mitigation, all as more specifically described in the Improvement Plan, on file and available during normal business hours at the address provided above. The District intends to impose assessments on benefited lands within the District in the manner set forth in the District’s Master Assessment Methodology Report dated October 2026, as amended, (the “Assessment Report”), which is on file and available during normal business hours at the address provided above. The Assessment Report identifies each parcel within the District and assessments per parcel for each land use category that is currently expected to be assessed. The method of allocating assessments for the Improvements to be funded by the District will be determined on a land use basis. Costs will be allocated using Equivalent Residential Unit (“ERU”) factors, which have the effect of stratifying the costs based on land use product. The methodology is explained in more detail in the Assessment Report. Also as described in more detail in the Assessment Report, the District’s assessments will be levied against all assessable lands within the District. Please consult the Assessment Report for more details. The annual principal assessment levied against each parcel will be based on repayment over thirty (30) years of the total debt allocated to each parcel. The District expects to collect sufficient revenues to retire no more than $29,810,000 in debt to be assessed by the District, exclusive of fees and costs of collection or enforcement, discounts for early payment and interest. The proposed annual schedule of assessments once parcels are platted or otherwise subdivided, inclusive of the aforementioned costs, is as follows: West Manatee District Community Development District Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds Land Use Debt/Unit Annual Assessment per Administrative Expenses Annual Assessment per Unit (net) per Unit Unit (gross) Single Family $168,795 $14,292.06 $1,075.75 $15,367.81 Condo $42,199 $3,573.02 $268.94 $3,841.95 The assessments may be prepaid in whole at any time, or in some instances in part, or may be paid in not more than thirty (30) annual installments subsequent to the issuance of debt to finance the Improvements.
