FISCAL NEED INFORMATION The ranking of LGCPA grant applicants is determined in part by local fiscal effort. This is a measure of each community's efforts to raise revenue in relation to its wealth. Local revenue is normally generated primarily from various tax sources, but in some cases it also includes surplus utility funds that are available to support other governmental functions. Because surplus utility revenue data is not available from annual financial reports, this information must be included in the LGCPA application. For each utility operated by your government, please report the amount of surplus funds transferred to other governmental activities that was not specifically related to the utility operation during the 1980-1981 fiscal year. Transfers to be included are: funds for general govern- mental activities; funds used to pay the principal and/or interest on bonds for activities not related to the specific utility in question (e.g., hospital and airport bonds); and funds used to support, other utility operations. Such transfers must be authorized by the governing body. Local governments which operate utilities through dependent special districts or authorities should report transfers to it from these units.

APPLICANT ELIGIBILITY The Florida Legislature provided that Local Government Compre- hensive Planning Assistance funds appropriated for FY 1981-82 shall be allocated only to those local governments that are within one of five categories. Indicate in the space provided how your government meets one or more of the following criteria: (a) Local governments that have not completed their comprehensive plans due to some extraordinary circumstances that prohibit adoption such as a court order or other legal action. (b) Local Governments that have received additional state planning mandates because all or part of their jurisdiction is located in an Area of Critical State Concern or because of participation on a Resource Planning and Management Committee. (c) Local governments that have never received state funds for comprehensive planning under this program. (d) Local governments that must make a substantial revision to a comprehensive plan because of a large scale, unanticipated change in conditions in the area. This shall include an area that is impacted after the adoption of a comprehensive plan by either a formally proposed development meeting the presumptive thresholds for Developments of Regional Impact or an approved Development of Regional Impact. Also included is any municipality that, after adopting its comprehensive plan, annexes an area exceeding 20 percent of its prior land area. (e) Local governments that adopted their comprehensive plan prior to October 1, 1977, and therefore must prepare periodic reports prior to October 1, 1982. The Comprehensive Development Plan of the City of Winter Springs was adopted by Ordinance No. 158 dated September 26, 1977, and therefore must be revised during the 1981-82 fiscal year. 2 Applicant: CITY OF WINTER SPRINGS 4.
