§ 17-465. Notice by mail.

In addition to the published notice required by section 17-464 and subject to the exemptions contained in Section 119.07(3), Florida Statutes, as amended, the comptroller shall provide notice of the proposed assessment by first class mail to the owner of each parcel of property subject to the assessment. The mailed notice shall conform to the requirements set forth in the Uniform Assessment Collection Act. Notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the hearing to each property owner at such address as is shown on the tax roll on the twentieth calendar day prior to the date of mailing. Notice shall be deemed mailed upon delivery thereof to the possession of the U.S. Postal Service. The comptroller may provide proof of such notice by affidavit. Failure of the owner to receive such notice due to mistake or inadvertence shall not affect the validity of the assessment roll nor release or discharge any obligation for the payment of an assessment imposed by the board pursuant to this article.
