Comprehensive Plan Public School Facilities Element BACKGROUND In 2005, the Florida Legislature amended s.163.3180, F. S., and mandated the implementation of public school concurrency. That legislation requires that each local government adopt a Public School Facilities Element (PSFE) as part of its Comprehensive Plan and amend its Capital Improvements Element and Intergovernmental Coordination Element. The PSFE must contain a data and analysis section that addresses: • how level -of -service standards will be achieved and maintained; • the interlocal agreement adopted pursuant to Section 163.31777, Florida Statutes; • the 5 -year school district facilities work program adopted pursuant to Section 1013.35, Florida Statutes; • the educational plant survey prepared pursuant to Section 1013.31, Florida Statutes, and an existing educational and ancillary plant map or map series; • information on existing development and development anticipated for the next 5 years and the long-term planning period; • an analysis of problems and opportunities for existing schools and schools anticipated in the future; • an analysis of opportunities to collocate future schools with other public facilities such as parks, libraries, and community centers; • an analysis of the need for supporting public facilities for existing and future schools; • an analysis of opportunities to locate schools to serve as community focal points; • projected future population and associated demographics, including development patterns year by year for the upcoming 5 -year and long-term planning periods; and • anticipated educational and ancillary plants with land area requirements.
