Summary Explanation and Background:
Since 2010, the Town of Melbourne Beach, City of Indian Harbour Beach, and City of Satellite Beach have each partnered with the County to share electronic data to enable the municipalities to prepare their annual Stormwater Utility Assessment Roll as required under the uniform method of collection in accordance with Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes.
The Interlocal Agreements (ILAs) are being updated to reflect current process requirements, as well as input received from the Tax Collector and Property Appraiser offices. Councils for each municipality have approved execution of these agreements. The updated ILAs will allow the County to continue administering and managing the shared electronic data view known as (STM_Taxbill). The municipalities will be billed annually for the administration of (STM_Taxbill). Administrative costs total approximately $15,739 per year and vary annually based on parcel count of each municipality’s adopted assessment roll. Costs for additional services will be based on hourly rates for staff time and expenses. Hourly administrative cost will be recalculated annually by adding the consumer price index to the base fee.
Clerk to the Board Instructions:
Please return two original signed agreements for each Municipality to the Natural Resources Management Department.
