Re: Year 2018 Coco Palms CDD Report

Dear Mr. Kalin:

The intent of this report is fourfold: 1) To inform as to the status of ownership of the infrastructure that was financed or constructed by Coco Palms Community Development District (the “District” or “CDD”); 2) To describe the state, working order and condition of the infrastructure still owned by the District; 3) To give recommendations as to the funds estimated necessary for the proper maintenance, repair and operation of the District’s infrastructure and; 4) To report on the insurance being carried by the District.

The District was established by the enactment of Miami-Dade County Ordinance No. 15-123 on November 3, 2015. Such Ordinance became effective on November 13, 2015. The original District boundaries encompassed 91.43 acres of land and it was expanded by 24.96 acres (the  Expansion Area) as explained in the First Supplemental Engineer’s Report accepted by the Board of Supervisors on May 16, 2018. The petition to expand the boundaries of the District was granted by the Miami- Dade County Board of County Commissioners and established by the enactment of Ordinance No. 15- 123 on May 15, 2018. Such Ordinance became effective on May 25, 2018. The total acreage of the District is 116.39 acres.

The original District boundaries are wholly comprised within the Plat of Coco Palm Estates (Plat Book 171, Page 32) and the Expansion Area of the District is wholly comprised within the Tentative Plat of Coco Palm Villas (the “T-Plat”). The T-Plat received approval from the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources of Miami-Dade County under T-Plat Number T-23993 on December 22, 2017. This approval is valid until September 22, 2018 at which time either the final plat will be recorded, or the T-Plat approval will be extended.

The expanded District is located in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, Florida, and is bounded by the plat of Hemingway Point (Plat Book 169, Page 46) on the west, SW 248 Street on the north, SW 112 Ave on the east and the Homestead Extension of Florida’s Turnpike (State Road 821) on the south. Refer to Exhibits 1, 2 and 3 for the location and new boundary maps of the CDD.
