Dear Associates:
We have learned of a lawsuit involving the City of Port St. Lucie, in a case identified as Zlinkoff v. City of Port St. Lucie, which may result in retroactive assessments being imposed by the city related to storm water utilities. At this time it can not be determined which properties will be affected nor the amount of the assessments.
Accordingly, we advise all agencies concerning transactions relative to any property within the City of Port St. Lucie to include the following exception:
"any retroactive fees and/or assessments that may be imposed by the City of St. Lucie in the future for storm water utilities and/or to recoup refunds of storm water utility assessments/fees for tax years 1993/94 - 1997/98 pursuant to Zlinkoff v. City of Port St. Lucie."
