SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve the Revised Proposed Proportionate Share Development Mitigation Agreement for South Creek Phase 2A, 2B & 2C (PI#4707 & 5104 and School Concurrency #638 & 697) (Operations Division)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2008, each of the four local governments in Hillsborough County, in conjunction with the School Board, adopted school concurrency programs.  A school concurrency program is designed to ensure that adequate school facilities are in place or under construction within three years of the impact of new residential development.  The Hillsborough County Public Schools' (HCPS) school concurrency system tracks future residential growth and its impact on school capacity to ensure the District is able to maintain the adopted level of service (LOS). The LOS in Hillsborough County is that schools will not exceed 100% of the Florida Inventory of School Houses (FISH) capacity. 
 
If the impact of a new residential development causes a school to exceed the adopted LOS and no adjacent school has capacity to accommodate the projected new students, a proportionate share development mitigation agreement may be entered into by the School District, local jurisdiction, and developer.  This agreement requires the developer to pay to construct the new school capacity needed to meet the LOS in order to move forward with their development proposal.  The agreement includes one phase, which includes 117 single family detached units and 30 single family attached units, generating 27 elementary, 16 middle school students, and 18 high school students.
  
There is currently no available elementary school capacity (for 3 students) or middle school capacity (for 13 students) within the Doby Elementary School attendance boundary or Eisenhower Middle School attendance boundary (concurrency service area) or in the adjacent concurrency service area, and this proportionate share mitigation agreement is needed to allow the residential project to move forward.
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
• Establish a strong foundation of financial stewardship • Construct and maintain facilities that create an environment conducive to teaching and learning
FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted:  No)
This agreement will require the developer to pay $443,277.00 to the School District.
