PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The Districts seek to merge the Mediterra North Development District and the Mediterra South Community Development District consisting of 1,675 acres.

SUMMARY: The Petition filed with the Commission proposes the merger of the Mediterra North Community Development District consisting of 521 acres into and with the Mediterra South Community Development District 1,154 acres within Lee and Collier Counties, Florida.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:

The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has been prepared by the Agency.

A statement of estimated regulatory costs (SERC) was prepared at the request of the District. The complete text of the SERC is contained as Exhibit 8 to the petition. Generally, the SERC indicates the rule:

• Is not expected to have any, or at the most, very limited direct or indirect impact on economic growth, private sector job creation or employment, or private sector investment in excess of $1 million in the aggregate within 5 years after the implementation of the rule;

• Is not likely to have, or at the most, a very limited adverse impact on business competitiveness;

• Is not likely to increase regulatory costs, and will only result in a one-time increase in transactional costs, in excess of $1 million in the aggregate within 5 years after implementation of the rule. The entire cost is estimated to be at approximately $50,000 and will be borne by landowners within Mediterra North CDD and Mediterra South CDD;

• Will involve the State, City of Bonita Springs, Collier County, and the two districts, as well as property owners within the two districts, which at present time may total approximately 3,000;

• Will not directly or indirectly result in any additional costs to the agency or any other state and local government entities and will have no anticipated effect on state or local revenues;

• Will not directly or indirectly result in increased transactional costs to any individual or entity; and,

• Will have no adverse impact on small businesses, counties or cities.

Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
