Sometimes these infrastructure improvements happen years after the development has been completed.
Since the Florida legislature repealed the 25 year old Growth Management Law in 2011, developers are no longer required to build roads, schools, sewage systems, etc. They don't even have to stipulate their developments are safe. All the costs of development now fall on the cities and towns involved.
