1.0	Executive Summary

This Supplemental Special Assessment Methodology Report provides a methodology for allocating the Special Assessment Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2018-1 and 2018-2 (the “Series 2018 Bonds”) consistent with the methodology adopted by the Middle Village Community Development District (“Middle Village CDD” or “District”) in the issuance of the Series 2004A and Series 2008A Bonds. This 2018 Supplemental Special Assessment Methodology Report is consistent with the allocation of the Series 2004A and 2008A Bond debt to properties based upon the special benefits each receives from the infrastructure program. This report is designed to conform to the requirements of Chapters 170,190 and 197 Florida Statutes with respect to special assessments and is consistent with our understanding of the case law on this subject. This report also supplements and is consistent with the District’s Master Assessment Methodology Report dated December 29, 2003 and the District’s Supplemental Assessment Report for the Series 2004A Bonds dated January 29, 2004 and the Series 2008A Bonds dated September 29, 2008.

The Middle Village Community Development District consists of approximately 995 acres in Clay County, Florida. The total planned development for the District is 1,059 single-family residential homes, 2,098 multi-family homes, and approximately 330,000 square feet of office/retail. Certain landowners have paid off the Bond Debt associated with all or a portion of the residential and office/retail components of the development. The Series 2018 Bonds are applicable to the development units which have 2004A and 2008A assigned debt.

On February 10,2004, the District issued Special Assessment Bonds, Series 2002A (the “Series 2004A Bonds”) totaling $35,810,000 with varying interest rates of 5.8% to 6% or a 30 year term.

On February 9,2008, the District issued Special Assessment Bonds, Series 2008A (the “Series 2008A Bonds”) totaling $2,840,000 with varying interest rates of 6.75% to 6.875% for a 30 year term.

The Board of Supervisors adopted on March 5, 2018 Resolution 2018- approving the sale and terms of the District issuing its Special Assessment Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 2018 and supplemental assessment roll. Proceeds from the sale of the Series 2018 Bonds will be used to (i) currently refund and redeem all of the outstanding principal amount of the Series 2004A and 2008A Bonds; (ii) pay certain costs associated with the issuance of the Series 2018 Bonds; and (iii) make deposits into the reserve account. The refunding will result in a lower interest rate thereby reducing annual assessments certified for collection by the District from owners of property subject to the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessments.

In anticipation of the District’s issuance of the Series 2018 Bonds, this Supplemental Special Assessment Methodology Report for the Series 2018 Bonds has been prepared for the purpose of (i) confirming the benefit inuring to real property in the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessment Area; and (ii) revising the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessments to reflect the financing terms of the Series 2018 Bonds, the repayment of which the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessments shall be pledged to upon closing (as revised, the “Series 2018 Assessments”).

2.0	The Series 2018 Bonds

The type of refunding being contemplated by the District will be accomplished through a private placement with Hancock Bank for the Series 2018-1while the Series 2018-2 will take place in a separate public offering. The Series 2018 Bonds are structured in a senior / subordinate structure. The Series 2018 Bonds will be secured by assessments levied on the same area as the Series 2004A and 2008A Bonds.

As described above, the Series 2018 Bonds will be used to refund the Series 2004A and 2008A Bonds presently outstanding in the par amount of $25,580,000. Proceeds from the sale of the Series 2018 Bonds and funds available by liquidating various accounts are as follows: Series 2004A and 2008A Revenue Account $2,117,118, the Series 2004A and 2008A Reserve Fund $875,313, the Series 2004A and 2008A

2

Construction fund $511,696, the Series 2004A and 2008A interest Fund $29,021 and the 2004A Prepayment Account of $988,397.

These monies will be used to (i) make a cash deposit into the refunding escrow account; (ii) fund the debt service reserve account; (iii) fund interest due on November 1, 2018; (iv) fund the cost of issuance; (v) fund the bank commitment fee and (Vi) account for the underwriter’s discount. A description of the sources and uses of fund is attached hereto as Table 2 and incorporated by reference herein.

The Series 2018-1 Bonds are structured as senior term bonds with a principal balance of $22,900,000 and a projected average coupon interest rate of 4.09%. Debt Service on the term bonds will begin on November 1, 2018 with principal amortization beginning on May 1, 2019 continuing through May 1, 2035.

The Series 2018-2 Bonds are structured as subordinated term bonds with a principal balance of $2,805,000 and a projected average coupon interest rate of 5.00%. Debt Service on the term bonds will begin on November 1, 2018 with principal amortization beginning on May 1, 2019 continuing through May 1, 2035.

The maximum annual debt service assessment revenues necessary for debt service on the Series 2018-1 and 2018-2 Bonds is $2,116,426 inclusive of principal, interest but net of collection costs, and early payment discounts. This is based on a total par issue of $25,705,000 with an April 25, 2018 issue date and final maturity as of May 1, 2035.

3.0	Allocation Methodology

In the Engineers Report dated October 28,2003 and the Supplemental Report for the Series 2004 Bonds dated January 29, 2004 by England, Thims and Miller, Inc. estimated that it would cost approximately $27,050,000 to construct and or acquire the 2004 and 2008 Project for Master infrastructure.

Construction and/ or acquisition of improvements comprising the 2004 Project and the 2008 Project continue to provide

3

special benefit to real property within the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessment Area that meets or exceeds the cost to finance, construct and/or acquire the 2004 and 2008 projects, and the fair and reasonable allocation of the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessments based upon the methodology set forth in the Series 2004A and 2008A Assessment Report and Table 4 attached hereto is hereby confirmed. The allocation of the Series 2018 Assessments as set forth herein will result in the District annually certifying for collection special assessments in the amounts set forth on Table 5 the Assessment roll.

As part of the refinancing a non-performing multi-family parcel is being structured into a planned development of 55 single family units. No debt will be allocated to the 55 unit development but annual assessments of $997.38 /unit will be assessed. Upon the final pricing of the Series 2018 Bonds a calculation will be conducted to determine the benefit amount per lot related to the 55 unit development to be utilized for prepayment or payoff calculations on these lots.

4.0	Assessment Rolls

Assessment rolls reflecting the allocation of special assessments securing repayment of the Series 2018 Bonds are attached hereto as Table 5.
