Formation of a municipal property owners' improvement district for a real estate development is merely a financing alternative for the cost of infrastructure. The developer must comply with all city development ordinances. The completed infrastructure improvements are dedicated to the city. The improvement district issues special assessment bonds, bond proceeds are used to construct or purchase the improvements, the district levies an annual tax on the lots and parcels in the district to pay debt service on the bonds, the annual taxes are collected by the county tax collector and paid to the bond trustee, and the trustee makes debt service payments to the bondholders. The improvement district tax may be prepaid in a lump sum. Should there be any questions, please contact me. Sincerely, S.
