What can you tell us about costs to the residents to support this; can you please discuss how we would pay for fire and EMS service under an independent special fire district?

Each parcel will be charged $124. The additional needed funding will be generated with $0.75 cents per $1,000 dollars of relative improvement value (market or ‘just’ value minus land value) in a second tier.

In addition to the ‘Simplified Funding’, The Villages Independent Fire Control and Rescue District will have the legal ability to generate funding via an ad-valorem assessment, or property tax, based on the taxable value of your home.

This is capped at a maximum of $1 dollar for every $1,000 dollars of the assessable value of residential and commercial properties.

Under the purview of The Villages Independent Fire Control and Rescue District, these revenue methods will provide enhanced transparency in identifying exactly how much you are paying to fund the services received.
Yes, and...?

This is not new at all. This has been published multiple places, written about in these posts, and built into the tax estimator.
