I had almost the same time line as you.

Check your settlement statement and you'll see the bond payment as well as the assessments were prorated to your closing date (just like property taxes).

The cut-off for all bond payments is July. You could have waited until July to pay the bond at the same amount.

The VCDD staff was very helpful to me explaining the process. You might want to talk to them with an open mind before involving the government and lawyers in what is almost assuredly a losing proposition.
