As new developments surge across Florida, the use of Community Development Districts (CDDs) has become vital in financing and maintaining high-quality infrastructure. The process of establishing and operating a CDD can seem complex, but this presentation will lay out the process, from formation to operation.
Join your fellow developers on October 23rd for “CDD Boot Camp,” led by industry veterans from Maronda Homes, Enright Real Property Company, Kilinski | Van Wyk PLLC, and Wrathell, Hunt & Associates LLC, firms that collectively represent and manage hundreds of CDDs across Florida.
Learn how these districts work, when they make financial sense, and how they can add value to your projects.
This session will unpack key questions, including:
- What is a CDD and when should a developer use one?
- What are the legal and financial steps to establish and fund a CDD?
- How do bond financing and assessments work?
- What disclosures, ethics, and governance requirements apply once a district is formed?
