NOTICE OF REGULAR MEETING OF THE OAK HILL TOWN CENTER COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT

The Board of Supervisors (“Board”) of The Oak Hill Town Center Community Development District (“District”) will hold public hearings and a regular meeting at 1:30 p.m. on July 28, 2026, at the Storch Law Firm, 420 S. Nova Road, Daytona Beach, Florida 32114, to consider the adoption of an assessment roll, the imposition of special assessments to secure proposed bonds on certain benefited lands within the District, and to provide for the levy, collection, and enforcement of the special assessments. The streets and areas to be improved are geographically depicted below and are further described in the District’s Master Capital Improvement Plan, dated May 2026, (“Improvement Plan”). The public hearings are being conducted pursuant to Chapters 170, 190, and 197, Florida Statutes. . A regular meeting of the District will also be held where the Board may consider any other business that may properly come before it. All persons interested may ascertain the description of the property to be assessed and the amount to be assessed to each piece or parcel of property at the District Manager’s office located 2300 Glades Road, Suite 410W, Boca Raton Florida 33431 (“District Manager’s Office”).

The District is a unit of special-purpose local government responsible for providing infrastructure improvements for lands within the District. The infrastructure improvements are currently expected to include, but are not limited to, internal roadways, wastewater and water systems, stormwater systems, off-site roads, landscape, hardscape and irrigation improvements, undergrounding of electric utilities, and other improvements including professional fees and contingency, all as more specifically described in the Improvement Plan (“Improvements”), on file and available during normal business hours at the District Manager’s Office.

The District intends to impose assessments on certain benefited lands within the District in the manner set forth in the District’s Master Special Assessment Methodology Report, dated May 12, 2026 (“Assessment Report”), which is on file and available during normal business hours at the District Manager’s Office.

The purpose of any such assessment is to secure bonds issued to fund the Improvements. As described in more detail in the Assessment Report, the District’s assessments will be levied against certain benefitted lands within the District. The Assessment Report identifies maximum assessment amounts for each land use category currently expected to be assessed. The method of allocating assessments for the Improvements to be funded by the District will initially be determined on an equal assessment per gross acre basis, and will be allocated on an equivalent residential unit (“ERU”) basis at the time that such property is platted, site planned, or subjected to a declaration of condominium. 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 $82,550,000.00 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 schedule of assessments is as follows:

Product Type
# of Units
ERUs
Total Debt Assessment per Unit
Annual Debt Assessment per Unit*

55’
838
838
$98,508.35
$9,308.77


*includes estimated county collection fees and early payment discount allowances

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. These annual assessments will be collected on the Volusia County (“County”) tax roll by the County Tax Collector. Alternatively, the District may choose to directly collect and enforce these assessments.

The public hearings and meeting are open to the public and will be conducted in accordance with Florida law. The public hearings and meeting may be continued to a date, time, and place to be specified on the record. There may be occasions when staff or board members may participate by speaker telephone. Any person requiring special accommodations because of a disability or physical impairment should contact the District Manager’s Office at (561) 571-0010 at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the meeting.

Each person who decides to appeal any decision made by the Board with respect to any matter considered at the public hearings or meeting is advised that person will need a record of proceedings and that accordingly, the person may need to ensure that a verbatim record of the proceedings is made, including the testimony and evidence upon which such appeal is to be based.
