Pursuant to the state mandated and School Board approved Interlace! Agreement-)
(Interlocal), local government, the development community and the School Board are to
collaborate on options to address the impact of proposed development on public schools
where the proposed residential development would result in an increase in the school's
Florida inventory School Houses (FISH) capacity utilization (permanent and relocatable), in
excess of 115%.
Enclosed please find the School District's review analysis of potential impact generated by
the above referenced application. Please note that none of the impacted school facilities
meet the referenced review threshold. However, utilizing the County's Census 2000 figures,
the proposed residential development will increase the FISH % utilization of Eneida M.
Hartner Elementary from 113% to 115%.
As such, it is our recommendation that dialogue between the School District, the City and
the above referenced applicant take place as it relates specifically to a public school in the
affected area that meets the threshold. In an effort to meet the terms of the interlocal,
please send an email to morozco@facil.dade.k12.fl.us to schedule a dialogue meeting with
District staff.
Pursuant to the recently approved 5-year work plan, please note the enclosed analysis
depicts the various relief schools planned in the area. Also, enclosed is a list of approved
Charter School Facilities, which may provide relief on a countywide basis, as well as a
report depicting previously approved and proposed application in the area.
Additionally, pursuant to Miami -Dade County's Educational Facilities Impact Fee Ordinance
the proposed development, if approved, will be required to pay educational facilities impact
fees (impact fees) based on the following formula:
School Board Administration Building • 1450 N.F. 2"d Avenue, Suite 525 • Miami, Florida 33132
305-995-7285 • FAX 305-995-4760 • arijo@dadeschvols.net

PARK LANE TOWER
January 14, 2005
Page 2
New residential unit square footage X .90 (Square Footage Fee) + $600.00
(Base Fee) + 2% administrative fee = Educational Facilities Impact fee
As an example, assuming the proposed unit is 2,000 square feet, the 126 units
development is estimated to generate approximately $308,448 ($2,448 per unit) in impact
fees. This figure may vary since the impact fees assessed are based on the actual square
footage of each dwelling unit.
In accordance with the Agreement, this letter and enclosed information should not be
construed as commentary on the merits of the pending zoning application. Rather it is an
attempt to provide relevant information to the City of Miami on public schools that will likely
serve the proposed development and meet the referenced threshold.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter. Please call me should you have
any questions at (305) 995-7287.
