| Overview: The District was created as a Water Control District by Court Order in 1971. The District operates primarily under the Florida Statutes in Chapter 298 and through several special acts of the Florida Legislature which have adjusted the boundaries and authorized the District to maintain the roads within Flagler Estates. The District encompasses over 6181 assessable acres. Purpose: The District’s purpose under Florida Statutes is to preserve, restore and protect the availability of surface water resources, for public health, welfare, and convenience. In addition to water control duties, the District is also empowered to maintain streets, roadways and roads necessary and convenient to provide access to and efficient development of areas made suitable and available for cultivation and settlement, urban and suburban, and other beneficial use and development as a result of the drainage, irrigation, and reclamation operations of the District. To accomplish these tasks, the District imposes an annual non-ad valorem maintenance assessment on a per acre basis to cover the operation and maintenance of the District. This assessment is collected through the County and is separately reflected on your annual property tax bill. The current assessment is $199.00 per acre. |
