<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 Program
<br />All County revenue sources except "Other Sources" are expected to increase at a rate of 2.5% through
<br />Fiscal Year 2022/23 and all County revenue sources except for Judgements, Fines & Forfeitures are
<br />projected to be above what was previously forecasted in the prior year's Capital Improvements
<br />Program. With respect to the "Other Sources" funds, the decreasing yearly amount is due to
<br />uncertainty in grant funds, as that funding source is dependent on a number of factors including but
<br />not limited to economic conditions, and the competitiveness of grant applications.
<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 increased revenue from assessments and user fees, gas taxes, various impact fees,
<br />and developer funded construction projects due to projected increased development activity and
<br />continually improving market conditions. While some project time frames have been extended, none
<br />of the extensions will impact development project concurrency reservations.
<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 maybe 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
