Wiregrass Community Development District

RULE NO.:RULE TITLE:

42MMM-1.002Boundary

PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The District seeks to contract its boundaries by removing approximately 2,196.846 acres.

SUMMARY: The petition filed with the Commission proposes amendment of the District by removing approximately 2,196.846 acres from the existing boundaries. The District currently consist of 3,974.294 acres located within Pasco County.

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 not been prepared by the Agency.

A statement of estimated regulatory costs (SERC) has been prepared as a component of the petition filed with the Florida Land and Water Adjudicatory Commission to contract the boundaries of the Wiregrass Community Development District. The complete text of the SERC is contained as Exhibit 12 to the petition. The SERC generally finds:

• It is expected that any economic impact would be positive or neutral in nature, particularly in the short term. There likely would be no significant impact on economic growth, private sector job creation, or employment as a direct result of the contraction of the District.

• Any impact on overall business competitive and/or innovation resulting from the District boundary contraction is likely to be minimal, but such impact will presumably be positive in nature.

• A dramatic increase in overall regulatory or transactional costs is highly unlikely.

• Once the District boundaries are contracted, the State of Florida will continue to incur only nominal administrative costs to review the periodic reports required pursuant to Chapters 190 and 198, F.S.

• These costs have a maximum fee established by the Legislature of $175 per year.

• 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.

The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: Legislative ratification is not required based on the statement of regulatory costs.

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.
