If he does, the county, known globally for its citrus groves and cattle ranches, will set up a special taxing district and issue bonds to pay for an estimated $100 million worth of roads, utilities and water connections needed for the mammoth undertaking at Osceola Parkway near State Road 535.

The bonds will be repaid by Miller from special property taxes assessed on hotels and retail after they are built and operating. If Miller doesn't pay the taxes, the county will seize Miller's prime land, estimated at 500 acres and valued at $100 million or $200,000 per acre.

If Miller doesn't produce a moneyman in 27 weeks, the deal is dead. Miller is confident the deal will be alive by fall and that he will break ground by year end. The total build-out will take 10 years.
