Comprehensive Plan Public School Facilities Element
<br />EXISTING CONDITIONS
<br />For school concurrency purposes, existing conditions relate not only to the number and
<br />location of public schools, but also to the County's population and overall level of residential
<br />development activity. Because the County's land use and demographic characteristics relate
<br />to the various components of the public school system, this section identifies past and
<br />projected County population figures, recent residential development activity, student
<br />enrollment data, and the existing conditions of Indian River County's public school system.
