BASIC INFORMATION

Background

The Ballentrae Hillsborough 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 Hillborough County’s approval of Ordinance No. 14-22, on August 12, 2014. The District includes within its boundaries approximately 122 acres.

 

District Infrastructure and Property

The District issued its Series 2014 and Series 2015 Bonds (“Bonds”) to fund the construction and/or acquisition of storm water management improvements, landscaping, utilities improvements, and roadway improvements.

 

District Annual Budgets

The District will annually approve both a Series 2014 and Series 2015 Bonds debt service budget and an Operations and Maintenance “O&M” budget. The Series 2014 and Series 2015 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 collects from property owners within its boundaries both a bond debt service assessment and an O&M assessment. The bond debt service assessment helps amortize the District’s Series 2014 and Series 2015 bonds. The O&M assessment funds the District’s annual O&M activities.

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, and agendas are available on the website a week prior to the meeting.
