Comprehensive Plan Public School Facilities Element To be effective, a plan must not only provide a means for implementation: the plan must also provide a mechanism for assessing its effectiveness. Generally, a plan's effectiveness can be judged by the degree to which its objectives have been met. Because objectives are measurable and have specific time frames, the plan's objectives are the benchmarks used to evaluate the plan. The planning department staff will be responsible for monitoring and evaluating the Public Schools Facilities Element on a regular basis, which involves collection of data and compilation of information regarding school capacity, and new residential development. Formal evaluation of the Public School Facilities Element will occur based on the schedule provided by the Florida Department of Community Affairs in conjunction with the formal evaluation and appraisal of the entire comprehensive plan. In addition to assessing progress, the evaluation and appraisal process will also be used to determine whether the Public School Facilities objectives should be modified or expanded. In this way, the monitoring and evaluation of the Public School Facilities Element will not only provide a means of determining the degree of success of the plan's implementation; it will also provide a mechanism for evaluating needed changes to the plan element.
