<br />As shown in table 6.9, the county has a Municipal Service Taxing Unit (MSTU) and an emergency
<br />services district, each with a separate millage.
<br />Changes to the Capital Improvements Prouam
<br />With the gradual improving economy, County revenue increased in Fiscal Year 2015/16. For all
<br />funding sources, except "other sources", County revenue is expected to continue to slowly increase
<br />through Fiscal Year 2020/21 above what was previously forecasted in the prior year's Capital
<br />Improvements Program.
<br />With this year's update, some projects have had their timeframes extended and some have had their
<br />funding sources changed as priorities have shifted, and projects previously underfunded have been
<br />designated to receive additional projected funding from sources that have become available. This
<br />includes projected revenue from the recent renewal of the one -cent local option sales tax and
<br />projected increased revenue from assessments and user fees, gas taxes, various impact fees, developer
<br />funded construction projects and the Florida Department of Transportation due to projected increased
<br />development activity and continually improving market conditions.. While some project time frames
<br />have been extended, none of the extensions will impact development project concurrency
<br />reservations.
<br />With respect to transportation projects, available roadway capacity has recently increased because
<br />concurrency certificates for some development projects with vested trips have expired. These trips are
<br />now reflected as available in the County's concurrency management system.
<br />By extending the timeframe of transportation projects, the County can utilize its limited resources to
<br />complete priority concurrency related projects within the overall capital improvements program. In
<br />effect, the County needs to delay some projects so that other projects will remain fundable and so that
<br />additional priority projects may be funded. By funding necessary projects and other priority projects,
<br />and by extending the time frames for other projects, the County is maintaining a financially feasible
<br />capital improvements element.
