Harmony Homes, Tentative Plat #T-25203), being the S of the SW of the SW of Section 14, Township 57 South, Range 38 East, less the NW thereof. The district covers 1 parcel (tentative plat proposes 115 single-family homes). The change is from no special taxing district to a special taxing district for multipurpose maintenance and street lighting services. The applicant/developer/owner is Harmony Three, LLC.

The district will provide maintenance of landscaped swales, medians, common areas, entrance features, wetlands, lakes, and exterior faces of fencing or walls abutting public rights-of-way, and street lighting services (28 LED streetlights). The multipurpose maintenance program will remain dormant until any association or community development district fails to provide required maintenance services. The estimated first-year cost for street lighting is $125,783.92; the second-year cost is $29,042.16. The estimated second-year cost for maintenance is $79,437.60. The petition was signed by 100% of property owners (1 owner). No public comment or stakeholder sentiment is stated in the document. The business opportunity for contractors is the installation of 28 roadway LED streetlights mounted on concrete poles, with Florida Power and Light as the owner of the system, and potential maintenance services if activated. The street lighting agreement with Florida Power and Light is approved, and the County Mayor or designee is authorized to execute it. The ordinance waives provisions of Resolution No. R-130-06. The effective date is 10 days after enactment unless vetoed.
