Approve Resolution No. 05-49 which states that the School Board does not oppose action by The Broward County Board of County Commissioners under provisions of the Broward County Land Development Code, waiving approximately $4,192 of the school impact fee applicable to the construction of two additional 3-bedroom, very low income, townhouse, affordable housing units on Lot 8, Block 1, Franklin Park, Plat Book 21, Page 3, located on NW 8th Street, east of NW 24th Avenue, west of Interstate I-95 in the City of Fort Lauderdale, and proposed for development by Ms. Shalonda Copeland.
The project will consist of three 3-bedroom townhouse affordable housing units in a triplex building, and on September 9, 2004, the Board did not oppose the waiving of school impact fee for one of the townhouse units. Thus, this request is for two additional units. The project proposed for construction by Ms. Shalonda Copeland will provide affordable housing for very low income persons as defined in Division 6 of the Broward County Land Development Code Definitions, thus qualifying these units as eligible for consideration of a school impact fee waiver as cited under Section 5-184(b)(4) of the Broward County Land Development Code. Under this Section, a school impact fee waiver can be granted based on percentages in the following manner: Very Low Income - 100 percent, Low Income - 75 percent and Moderate Income - 50 percent. The Broward County Community Development Division certified the project as three 3-bedroom, very low income, townhouse, affordable housing unit in a triplex. Based on the current school impact fee ordinance (Ordinance 97-40, effective October 1, 2004), total school impact fee due for the two units is approximately $4,192. Based on criteria cited in Section 5-184(b)(4) of the Broward County Land Development Code, the total $4,192 qualifies for school impact fee waiver. Ms. Shalonda Copeland indicates that she is the developer of the project. She is not registered as a 501(c)(3) and is not a nonprofit organization. Schools affected in the 2004/05 school year are Dillard Elementary, Arthur Ash Middle and Dillard High School.
Financial Impact: Potential loss of approximately $4,192 in school impact fee.
