Upcoming Public Hearings, and Joint Regular Meeting
The Board of Supervisors (“Boards”) for the Bay Creek Community Development District (“Districts”) will hold the following two (2) public hearings and a joint regular meeting:
DATE: September 11, 2025
TIME: 2:00 PM
LOCATION: Pelican Landing Community Association
24501 Walden Center Drive
Bonita Springs, Florida 34134
The first public hearing is being held pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, to receive public comment and objections on the District’s proposed budget (“Proposed Budget”) for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2025, and ending September 30, 2026 (“Fiscal Year 2026”). The second public hearing is being held pursuant to Chapters 170, 190 and 197, Florida Statutes, to consider the imposition of operations and maintenance enterprise fund special assessments (“O&M EF Assessments”) upon the lands located within the District, to fund the Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 2026; to consider the adoption of an assessment roll; and, to provide for the levy, collection, and enforcement of assessments. At the conclusion of the hearings, the Board will, by
resolution, adopt a budget and levy O&M EF Assessments as finally approved by the Board. A Board meeting of the District will also be held where the Board may consider any other District business.
Description of Assessments
The District imposes O&M EF Assessments on benefited property within the District for the purpose of funding the District’s irrigation maintenance budget. Pursuant to Section 170.07, Florida Statutes, a description of the services to be funded by the O&M EF Assessments, and the properties to be improved and benefitted from the O&M EF Assessments, are all set forth in the
Proposed Budget. A geographic depiction of the property potentially subject to the proposed O&M EF Assessments is identified in the map attached hereto. The table below shows the schedule of the proposed O&M EF Assessments, which are subject to change at the hearing:
Land Use
Total # of Units
Proposed O&M EF Assessments (including collection costs / early payment discounts)
Residential Unit
771
$175.16
Commercial
10.73
$175.16
PN Golf Club
37.45
$175.16
The proposed O&M EF Assessments as stated include collection costs and/or early payment discounts, which Lee County (“County”) may impose on assessments that are collected on the County tax bill. Moreover, pursuant to Section 197.3632(4), Florida Statutes, the lien amount shall serve as the “maximum rate” authorized by law for O&M Assessments, such that no assessment hearing shall be held or notice provided in future years unless the assessments are proposed to be increased or another criterion within Section 197.3632(4), Florida Statutes, is met. Note that the O&M EF Assessments do not include any other assessments previously levied by the District and due to be collected for Fiscal Year 2026.
For Fiscal Year 2026, the District intends to have the County tax collector collect the assessments imposed on certain developed property. It is important to pay your assessment because failure to pay will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which may result in loss of title. The District’s decision to collect assessments on the tax roll or by direct billing does not preclude the Districts from later electing to collect those or other assessments in a different manner at a future time.
