Of course, this advice should be followed for EVERY company that you set up for auto-pay of invoices.

Amenity Information

Amenity charges are contractual charges billed monthly in advance as part of the combined bill that is sent by VCDD Utilities.

The contractual amenity fees provide funding for Villages Public Safety, Community Watch, recreation centers, pools and services, gate and postal station facility maintenance, water retention areas, Village Center Community development common areas, Sumter Landing Community Development common areas and the executive golf course operations and maintenance.

The contractual agreement does provide for the amenity fee to be adjusted by the increase/decrease in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

The Consumer Price Index is reported monthly by the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics and measures inflation as experienced by consumers in the day to day living expenses.

This adjustment is based upon the provisions found in each individual homeowner’s deed covenant. Generally, the adjustment anniversary date is the Original Land Sale Date, thus your adjustment may not occur at the same time as your neighbors.

To view a copy of your Covenant, you may access the Community Standards Department page. Click on the link at the bottom left, choose your County and then your Unit/Lot.

If you need the assistance of a customer service representative to understand your bill or any of these charges, please call 352-750-0000.

Good Post!
