DESCRIPTION
The Lake Hamilton Bluff Community Development District (CDD) was adopted by the town of Lake Hamilton in March of 2022. The CDD has since been expanded once within the town limits. This third amendment involves parcels not yet annexed into the town. The CDD currently covers approximately 266 acres of land and is being expanded to approximately 644 acres by the town. The addition includes two parcels and a portion of a third that are in the unincorporated area which combine to approximately 9.685 acres.
Section 190.046, Florida Statutes (F.S.) requires the Board to adopt all ordinances or resolutions establishing or expanding Community Development Districts within its jurisdiction. The Land Development Division received a complete Petition to modify the Lake Hamilton Bluff CDD on October 4, 2024. In order to comply with the special advertising requirements of Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, the applicant must run advertisements in the newspaper for four consecutive weeks prior to the hearing. The requested date, December 3, 2024, allows additional time for staff to review the advertisement before it is printed in the newspaper.
