SECTION 11 SCHOOL CONCURRENCY PROGRAM
11.1 Commencement of School Concurrency. The School Concurrency Program
described in this Agreement shall commence on the EFFECTIVE DATE.
11.2 Concurrency Service Areas(CSA).The Parties hereby agree that School
Concurrency shall be measured and applied using a geographic area known as a
Concurrency Service Area(CSA)which coincides with groupings of school
attendance zones within each school type based on adjacency,as established in
this Agreement.The designation of the specific school attendance zones
comprising each of the CSAs are provided in Appendix"A"of this Agreement.
A. CSA service area boundaries,together with the standards for establishing
those boundaries, will be identified in the Comprehensive Plans of each
City and the County pursuant to Section 163.3180(6)(f)2.a., F.S. The
designation of the specific school attendance zones comprising each of
the CSAs will be included as support documents used as a basis for or in
developing the local comprehensive plan . The comprehensive plan will
include a statement advising that in order to determine the geographic
boundary of each CSA, current School Board attendance zone maps for
each school included within each CSA must be consulted.
B. The following standards shall apply to the composition of CSAs:
1. In Order to maximize school capacity, each elementary CSA must
include a minimum of two elementary schools:and
2. When a new elementary school opens it may be placed in the CSA that
includes the most proximate existing elementary school with consideration
of the goals established in School Board Policy po5120 to include, but not
be limited to, minimizing the duration of travel time and distance while not
placing a transportation burden on any identifiable diversity sub group
(social economic, race/ethnicity, ESOL,or disability):and
3. The capacity at county-wide Magnet Schools shall not be attributed to
the available capacity for the CSA in which the county wide Magnet School
is located.
C. As future school attendance zone changes are required for schools
programmed in the Seminole School Board Five-Year Capital Improvement
Plan, the CSAs shall automatically be modified to the greatest extent
possible so as to provide maximum utilization.
D. Any Party may propose a change to the CSA boundaries or the designation
of which individual school attendance zones comprise the CSAs. Prior to
adopting any change to a CSA, the School Board must verify that as a
result of the change:
Page 16 of 39
73
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
1. The adopted level of service standards will be achieved and
maintained for each year of the five-year planning period;and
2. The utilization of Program School Capacity will be maximized to the
greatest extent possible, taking into account transportation costs,
and other relevant factors.
E. The Parties shall observe the following process for modifying CSA School
Designations:
1. Changes in school attendance zone boundaries shall be governed
by School Board Policy po5120—School Attendance Zones and
Interzone Transfers, Section 120.54 F.S. and applicable uniform
rules governing rulemaking and administrative proceedings. Prior
to the School Board holding an initial public meeting to consider
whether to begin the School Attendance Zone revision process,the
School Board will notify the Local Government(s) with jurisdiction
within the impacted CSA of the proposed revision.
2. At such time as the School Board determines that modification to a
school(s) attendance zone boundary is appropriate, the School
Board shall make public the revised attendance zone boundary and
shall provide notice of the proposed changes to the Qities,to the
y the City, and to the PSFPC.
3. nIAt I1�od Changes in school attendance zone boundaries
occurring bV administrative rezone shall require prior written notice
to the CitV,and a presentation regarding the change bV the School
Board before the City Commission at a public meeting,at least thirty
(30)days prior to the change becoming effective if the change will
impact any of the CSAs referenced in this Agreement.
4. Concurrency Service Area geographic boundaries shall conform to
revised school attendance zone boundaries and shall become
effective upon final adoption of the modified school attendance
zone boundaries by the School Board pursuant to School Board
Policy po5120 — School Attendance Zones and Interzone
Transfers, but shall not require amendment to this Agreement or to
the local government jurisdiction's comprehensive plan.
5. To become effective,any proposed change to CSA boundaries that:
a. is not a CSA boundary change resulting from a School
Board modification to school attendance zone geographic
boundaries pursuant to School Board Policy po5120 —
School Attendance Zones and Interzone Transfers;or
b. is a proposed change to the designation of which individual
school attendance zones comprise the various CSAs,
must be reviewed by the PTAC, the PSFPC, and approved by all
Parties as an amendment to this Agreement.
11.3 Level of Service(LOS)Standard.To ensure the capacity of schools is sufficient
to support student growth,the''^Ys ity and School Board shall adopt a

12.1 General Provisions. The GeHRty, the Qties Ci�and the School Board shall
ensure that the Level of Service Standard established for each school type is
maintained.
A. No site plan, final subdivision, or functional equivalent for new residential
development may be approved by the Qe Rt+' ^F Qtlec City, unless the
residential development is exempt from these requirements as provided in
Section 12.1(c) of this Agreement, or until a School Capacity Availability
Letter Determination(SCALD)has been issued by the School Board to the
local government indicating that adequate school facilities exist.
B ^ !eGal gGVeF^m^^+The City may condition the approval of the residential
development to ensure that necessary school facilities are in place. This
shall not limit the authority of a leGal 9eVeFRR e„+the City to deny a site
plan,final subdivision or its functional equivalent,pursuant to its home rule
regulatory powers.
C. The following residential uses shall be considered exempt from the
requirements of school concurrency:
1. Any amendment to any previously approved residential
development,which does not increase the number of dwelling units
or change the type of dwelling units (single-family, multi-family,
etc.).
2. Any community subject to a restrictive covenant on all residential
units that results in no permanent residents under the age of
eighteen(18)..

units. Such de minimus impact exempt developments would still be
Page 18 of 39
75
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
required to go through other approval processes required by the
local government(s).
D. Any new residential development that received a passing School Capacity
Availability Letter of Determination("SCALD")prior to the effective date of
this Agreement will remain under the terms and conditions established in
the Agreement when the SCALD was received and will not be required to
apply for a new SCALD under this Agreement or be subject to the time
deadlines and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 12.7 below.
E. Upon request by a developer submitting a land development application
with a residential component,the School Board shall issue a determination
as to whether or not a development, lot or unit is exempt from the
requirements of school concurrency and submit a copy of the determination
to the local government within 10 days.
12.2 School Concurrency Application Review
A. A developer may request a preliminary school capacity assessment from
the School Board,which will provide the developer with the school capacity
available at the time of the preliminary assessment, but will not reserve
capacity and will not bind the School Board in subsequent capacity
determinations.
B. Any developer submitting a development permit application (such as site
plan or final subdivision)with a residential component that is not exempt
under Section 12.1(C) or 12.1(D) of this Agreement is subject to school
concurrency and shall prepare and submit a SCALD Application to the
School Board for review. The SCALD Application form shall be obtained
from the School Board.
C. The SCALD Application shall indicate the location of the development,the
number of dwelling units by unit type(single-family detached,single family
attached (town homes/condominiums), multi-family with unit sizes, and
mobile homes),a phasing schedule(if applicable), and age restrictions for
occupancy (if any). The School Board concurrency test shall follow the
following steps:
1. Test Submittal. The developer shall submit a SCALD Application
to the School Board with a copy to the local government with
jurisdiction over the proposed development. The completed
SCALD Application must be submitted a minimum of five days but
not more than 30 days prior to Development Application submittal
to the local government. The School Board shall perform a
sufficiency review on the SCALD Application. An incomplete
SCALD Application will be returned to the Owner/Developer without
processing. The School Board will have 20 days to determine
sufficiency and complete the Test Review. The School Board may
charge the applicant a non-refundable application fee payable to
Page 19 of 39
76
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
the School Board to meet the cost of review in accordance with
Florida Statutes.
2. Test Review. Each SCALD Application will be reviewed in the order
in which it is received by the School Board.
3. Passing the Test. If the available capacity of public schools for
each type within the CSA [or contiguous Alternate CSA, as
provided for in 12.2(C) below] containing the proposed project is
equal to or greater than the proposed project's needed capacity,the
concurrency test is passed. The School Board will issue a SCALD
identifying the school capacity available to serve the proposed
project, indicating that said capacity has been reserved for the
proposed project, and containing a warning that reserved capacity
will be forfeited if the developer fails to meet the time deadlines set
forth in Section 12.7, below..
4, Forfeiture of reserved capacity. If developer fails to meet the time
deadlines set forth in Section 12.7 below,the reserved capacity will
be forfeited and the developer must resubmit a new SCALD
Application.
5. Failing the Test. If the available capacity of public schools for
any type within the CSA (or if identified in Appendix "A," a
contiguous Alternate CSA, as provided for in Section 12.3(c)
below) containing the proposed project is less than the proposed
project's needed capacity, the concurrency test is failed. The
School Board will issue a SCALD informing the developer that
capacity is not available and advising the developer of the following
options:
a. Accept a 30 day temporary reservation of available school
capacity, and within the same 30-day period, amend the
Development Application to balance it with the available
capacity.The time deadlines set forth in Section 12.7 will be
tolled until the Development Application has been amended
or the temporary reservation of capacity has expired,
whichever is earlier;or
b. Accept a 60 day temporary reservation of available school
capacity,and within the same 60 day period, negotiate and
agree with the School Board and the local government on a
Development Agreement for Mitigation plan as outlined in
Section 12.5 below. The time deadlines set forth in Section
12.7 will be tolled until an agreed Development Agreement
has been finalized or rejected by the local government board
or commission, or the 60 day temporary reservation of
capacity has expired without agreement, whichever is
earlier;or
C. Appeal the results of the failed test pursuant to the
provisions in Section 12.8 below;or
d. Withdraw the SCALD Application.
Page 20 of 39
77
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
6. Test Abandonment. If no option under Section 12.2(6)(5)above is
selected by the developer within 15 days following issuance of the
SCALD,then the SCALD Application shall be deemed abandoned.
12.3 Methodology. The methodology for performing the concurrency test shall follow
the steps outlined below:
A. To determine a proposed development's projected students,the proposed
development's projected number and type of residential units shall be
converted into projected students for all schools of each type within the
specific CSA using the adopted Student Generation Multiplier, as
established in the most current adopted Seminole County Educational
System Impact Fee Ordinance and Seminole County Public Schools
Impact Fee Study Update.
B. New school capacity within a CSA which is in place or planned for
construction in the first three years of the School Board's Capital
Improvement Plan will be added to the capacity shown in the CSA, and is
counted as available capacity for the residential development under review.
C. If the projected student growth from a residential development causes the
adopted LOS to be exceeded in the CSA within which the proposed
development is located, another adjaseat CSA or an Alternate CSA, if
either is identified in Appendix "A" for the type of school, whvrh Ph s

ReGe6SaFy, Sha l .+AR fi RI IA 4. Ohl, ReXt .-,rd{.-,GeRt QS ,.d4h 4h 4
2. Consistent with Rule 6A-3.0171 F.A.C., at no time shall the shift of
impact to aR adjaR4 an another CSA or Alternate CSA result in a
total morning or afternoon transportation time of either elementary
or secondary students to exceed fifty(50)minutes or one(1)hour,
respectively. The transportation time shall be determined by the
School Board transportation routing system and measured from the
school the impact is to be assigned, to the center of the subject
parcel/plat in the amendment application, along the most direct
improved pubic roadway free from major hazards.
12.4 Development Review Table. The School Board shall create and maintain a
Development Review Table(DRT)for each CSA,and will use the DRT to compare
the projected students from proposed residential developments to the CSAs
available capacity programmed within the first three years of the current five-year
capital planning period.
A. Student enrollment projections shall be based on the most recently adopted
School Board Capital Facilities Work Program, and the DRT shall be
updated to reflect these projections. Available capacity shall be derived
using the following formula:
Page 21 of 39
78
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
Available Capacity=School Capacity'—(Enrollment'+Approved')
Where:
'School Capacity = Program School Capacity as programmed in the first
three(3)years of the School Board's Five-Year CIP
'Enrollment = Student enrollment as counted at the Fall Semester
Student Count.
3Approved= Students generated from approved residential developments
after the implementation of school concurrency
B. Using the Fall Semester Student Count,the vested number of students on
the DIRT will be reduced by the number of students represented by the
residential units that received certificates of occupancy within the previous
twelve(12)month period.
12.5 Development Agreement for Mitigation. In the event there is not available
school capacity to support a development, the School Board will entertain
Development Agreement for Mitigation options consistent with Section
163.3180(6)(h), F.S.,and, if accepted,shall enter into an enforceable and binding
agreement with the developer to mitigate the impact from the development through
the creation of additional school capacity.
A. When the anticipated student impacts from a proposed development cause
the adopted LOS to be exceeded,the developer's mitigation agreement will
be based on the number of additional student stations necessary to achieve
the established LOS.The amount to be paid will be calculated by the cost
per student station for elementary, middle and high school as determined
and published by the State of Florida.
B. The methodology used to calculate a Development Agreement for
Mitigation credits shall be as follows:
Development Mitigation Share = ('Development students -Available
Capacity)x 2Total Cost per student station
Where:
'Development students = those students from the development that are
assigned to a CSA and have triggered a deficiency of the available
capacity.
2Total Cost=the cost per student station as determined and published by
Seminole County Public Schools School Impact Fee Study Update in effect
as of the date of issuance of the SCALD.
C. The applicant shall accept a 60 day encumbrance of available school
capacity,and within the same 60 day period enter into negotiations with the
Local Government(s)with jurisdiction in the effected CSA and the School
Board in an effort to mitigate the impact from the development through the
creation of additional capacity. Upon identification and acceptance of a
mitigation option deemed financially feasible by the Local Government(s)
with jurisdiction in the effected CSA and the School Board, the developer
shall enter into a binding and enforceable development agreement with the
Page 22 of 39
79
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
Local Government(s)with jurisdiction in the effected CSA and the School
Board.
1. A mitigation contribution provided by a developer to offset the
impact of a residential development must be directed by the School
Board toward a school capacity project identified in the School
Board's Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan.
2. If capacity projects are planned in years four (4) or five (5) of the
School Board's Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan within
the same CSA as the proposed residential development, the
developer may pay his proportionate share to mitigate the proposed
development in accordance with the formula provided in Section
12.5(B)of this Agreement.
3. If a capacity project does not exist in the Capital Improvement Plan,
the School Board will add a capacity project to satisfy the impacts
from a proposed residential development,if it is funded through the
developer's proportionate share mitigation contributions. Mitigation
options may include, but are not limited to:
a. Contribution of land or payment for land acquisition suitable
for and in conjunction with,the provision of additional school
capacity or through application of County education system
impact fee credits pursuant to Seminole County Ordinance
2018-1,section 105.46;or
b. Mitigation banking based on the construction of an
educational facility in exchange for the right to receive
impact fee credits;or
C. Provide modular or permanent student stations acceptable
for use as an educational facility;or
d. Provide additional student stations through the remodeling
of existing buildings acceptable for use as an educational
facility;or
e. Construction or expansion of permanent student stations at
the impacted school within the CSA;or
f. Construction of an educational facility in advance of the time
set forth in the School Board's Five-Year Capital
Improvement Plan.
D. For mitigation measures (a) thru (f) above, the estimated cost of the
mitigating capacity will reflect the estimated future costs at the time of the
anticipated construction. Improvements contributed by the developer shall
receive school impact fee credit.
E. Developer shall receive an impact fee credit for the proportionate share
mitigation.Credits will be given for that portion of the impact fees that would
have been used to fund the improvements on which the proportionate fair
share contribution was calculated. The portion of impact fees available for
the credit will be based on the historic Seminole County Impact Fee
Ordinance's distribution of impact fee funds to the school type(elementary,
Page 23 of 39
80
Winter Springs Proposed Draft 3.11.2022
middle, high) in the appropriate CSAs. Impact fee credits shall be
calculated at the same time as the applicant's proportionate share
obligation is calculated. Impact fee credits may be transferred pursuant to
Section 163.31801, Florida Statutes.
F. A proportionate share mitigation contribution shall not be subsequently
amended or refunded after final site plan or plat approval to reflect a
reduction in planned or constructed residential density.
G. Impact fees shall be credited against the proportionate share mitigation
total.
H. Any proportionate share mitigation must be directed by the School Board
toward a school capacity improvement identified in the School Board's
Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan.
I. Upon conclusion of the negotiation period, a second School Capacity
Availability Letter of Determination(SCALD)shall be issued.If mitigation is
agreed to, the School Board shall issue a new Determination Letter
approving the development subject to those mitigation measures agreed to
by the local government, developer and the School Board. Prior to, site
plan approval, final subdivision approval or the functional equivalent, the
mitigation measures shall be memorialized in an enforceable and binding
agreement with the local government,the School Board and the Developer
that specifically details mitigation provisions to be paid for by the developer
and the relevant terms and conditions. If mitigation is not agreed to, the
Determination Letter shall detail why any mitigation proposals were
rejected and why the development is not in compliance with school
concurrency requirements. A SCALD indicating either that adequate
capacity is available, or that there is not a negotiated proportionate share
mitigation settlement following the sixty (60) day negotiation period as
described in Section 12.7(6) of this Agreement, constitutes final agency
action by the School Board for purposes of Chapter 120, F.S.
12.6 School Concurrency Approval. Issuance of a SCALD by the School Board
identifying that adequate capacity exists indicates only that school facilities are
currently available,and capacity for the proposed development has been reserved.
A. A local government shall not issue a Development approval for a residential
development until receiving confirmation of available school capacity in the
form of a SCALD from the School Board.The Development approval shall
