Default Village Community District #8 public hearing?

We just got a letter from the VCDD telling us of a hearing on Sept 1 which has to do with new assessments on maintenance and benefits. It will add another $1200 a year for us, but I don't really understand the whole process. What do they mean, and is the hearing an opportunity to protest this additional cost? How is this being broken down, and is this just for new homeowners? Is everyone having to pay more now? We are moving there in October. Thanks for any information --- it's kind of a confusing letter. Even at the end they say, "it is the district's intent to utilize the uniform method of collection beginning Oct. 1 2009 and for each year thereafter until discontinued for a year. Failure to pay the assessments will cause a tax certificate to be issued against the property which will include loss of title." This is scary. What do they mean?
