Background
The Amelia National Community Development District (“District”) is an independent special district, created pursuant to and existing under the provisions of Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, and established by the Board of County Commissioners of Nassau County by approval of Ordinance No. 2004-01, on January 12, 2004. The District includes within its boundaries approximately 876.40 acres of land located entirely within the boundaries of Nassau County, FL. The District was established to fund, install, operate, and maintain public infrastructure. The Capital Improvement Plan includes the costs for drainage and water management improvements, recreational and landscape improvements, water and wastewater improvements, wetland mitigation and preservation facilities and offsite roadway improvements.
District Infrastructure and Property
The District issued its various bonds to fund the construction and/or acquisition of improvements.
District Annual Budgets
The District will annually approve both a various bond debt service budget and an Operations and Maintenance “O&M” budget. The various bonds require level annual debt service and so the bond debt service budget will not vary substantially from year-to-year.
District Annual Non-Ad Valorem Assessments
The District annually levies and collects from property owners within its boundaries both a bond debt service assessment and an O&M assessment, as authorized by Chapter 190, Florida Statutes. The bond debt service assessment helps amortize the District’s various bonds. The O&M assessment funds the District’s annual O&M activities. Assessments for platted lots are collected on the Nassau County tax bill. Chapter 197, Florida Statutes, provides a mechanism pursuant to which such special assessments may be placed on the tax roll and collected by the local tax collector. The District has previously authorized the use of the Uniform Method by, among other things, entering into agreements with the Property Appraiser and Tax Collector of the County for that purpose.

Florida Law requires that the District publish an annual meeting schedule for the fiscal year one time in a newspaper of general circulation in Nassau County. The Board may decide to cancel or reschedule any of its meetings, or add meetings or workshops as items of business dictate. These new meetings will be advertised in the newspaper at least seven (7) days in advance.
