Public Hearings and Non-Consent New-Business October 7, 2025 Joint Community Facilities Districts Meeting Minutes 2.A Board of Directors of the Watson Road Community Facilities District (City of Buckeye, Arizona) to conduct a public hearing on objections received, to take action on the objections, and to take action on Resolution No. 04-25 approving the modification of assessments in Assessment District No. 1. Staff Liaison: Brandon Squire, District Engineer Mr. Price presented information regarding the proposed assessments modification in the Tyler Ranch Watson Road Community Facilities District (CFD). The CFD was formed in 2005, issuing $49 million in special assessment revenue bonds for approximately 2,000 acres, including 8,000 single-family residential equivalent lots. Assessment No. 14, known as Tyler Ranch, consists of 71 acres and 303 lots. Principal payments on the bonds have been collected with property taxes since 2005. Recently the developer decided to develop the Tyler Ranch lots, leading to the subdivision of the 71 acres into 303 lots. The remaining principal and interest are now distributed pro rata across these lots. Some lots were sold before the assessment modification, causing confusion among new homeowners who received unexpected payment letters. The payoff date for these bonds is July 2031. Mattamy Homes USA, the majority owner of the real property subject to Assessment No. 14, has requested that it be modified to place a per lot assessment of: (i) $1,762.30 on newly created Assessment Nos. 14T-01- 001 through 14T-01-025, Assessment Nos. 14T-03-001 through 14T-03-041, and Assessment Nos. 14T-03-001 through 14T-03-041; and (ii) $1,762.29 on newly created Assessment Nos. 14T-02-145 through 14T-02-147, and Assessment Nos. 14T-03-042 through 14T-03-131. The requested changes will not alter the current outstanding total assessment amount of $533,975.97. The board received one written objection, which did not describe the reason for the objection or any other details. Chairman Orsborn opened a public hearing at 5:22 p.m. to hear citizen input regarding the proposed modification of assessments. There being no public comment, Chairman Orsborn closed the public hearing at 5:22 p.m. A motion was made by Vice Chair Heustis and seconded by Board Member HagEstad to deny the objection received and adopt Resolution No. 04-25 approving the modification of assessments in Assessment District No. 1. Motion passed unanimously. 3. Adjournment There being no further business to discuss, Chairman Orsborn adjourned the meeting at 5:23 p.m. _________________________________ Eric W.
