Close, the Amenity Fee has an annual CPI adjustment that determines how much it can go up year over year. You are however correct on the Maintenance Assessment; it is not limited like property taxes (Florida Save Our Homes Act) but instead changes with the expenses each year of the individual CDDs.

Here's a link to a YouTube playlist of videos that explain the fees here in The Villages.
