SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS
<p>Approve Final Five Year Work Plan 2020/2021 (<em>Operations Division</em>)</p>
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
<p style="text-align: justify;">Florida Statute requires each school district to develop and approve a district five year capital outlay work plan. &nbsp;The plan must be submitted to the Florida Department of Education (FDOE) annually. &nbsp;The plan must include a schedule of all major repairs, renovations, new planned construction projects, class size information, and the use of portable classrooms in the school district.&nbsp; The district must also provide projected capital outlay revenues for the five year period. &nbsp;The Capital Outlay Full Time Equivalent (COFTE) enrollment projections are provided by the FDOE based upon cohort projections from the annual live birth rates within the county.&nbsp; This year a delay caused by issues with FDOE&rsquo;s Educational Facility Information System required the Districts within the State to adopt after the standard October 1st adoption date. &nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">As required by our interlocal agreements with the local governments, after the tentative work plan was approved by the Board on July 28, 2020, the work plan was reviewed and discussed with other public agencies, including Hillsborough County, the Planning Commission and the cities of Tampa, Plant City and Temple Terrace. The Planning Commission reviewed the plan on September 14, 2020, and issued a finding of consistency with the comprehensive plan. Comments received from the reviewing agencies have been attached.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The attached work plan is presented in the Department of Education format and has been updated from the tentative plan to reflect the most current information available. Various site funds shown on the final plan have changed to reflect the 2020/2021 Public Education Capital Outlay (PECO) Funds, which for 2020/2021, no funds were allocated after the completion of the tentative plan.</p>
