28Statutes, is amended to read:
29     163.3164  Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land
30Development Regulation Act; definitions.--As used in this act:
31     (32)  "Financial feasibility" means that sufficient
32revenues are currently available or will be available from
33committed funding sources for the first 3 years, or will be
34available from committed or planned funding sources for years 4
35and 5, of a 5-year capital improvement schedule for financing
36capital improvements, such as ad valorem taxes, bonds, state and
37federal funds, tax revenues, impact fees, and developer
38contributions, which are adequate to fund the projected costs of
39the capital improvements identified in the comprehensive plan
40necessary to ensure that adopted level-of-service standards are
41achieved and maintained within the period covered by the 5-year
42schedule of capital improvements. The requirement that level-of-
43service standards be achieved and maintained shall not apply if
44the proportionate fair-share mitigation proportionate-share
45process set forth in s. 163.3180(12) and (16) is used.
46     Section 2.  Paragraph (c) of subsection (13) of section
47163.3177, Florida Statutes, is amended to read:
48     163.3177  Required and optional elements of comprehensive
49plan; studies and surveys.--
50     (13)  Local governments are encouraged to develop a
51community vision that provides for sustainable growth,
52recognizes its fiscal constraints, and protects its natural
53resources. At the request of a local government, the applicable
54regional planning council shall provide assistance in the
55development of a community vision.
56     (c)  As part of the workshops and public meetings, the
57local government must discuss strategies for addressing the
58topics discussed under paragraph (b), including:
59     1.  Strategies to preserve open space and environmentally
60sensitive lands, and to encourage a healthy agricultural
61economy, including innovative planning and development
62strategies, such as the transfer of development rights;
63     2.  Incentives for mixed-use development, including

74     Section 3.  Subsections (1) and (2), paragraph (a) of
75subsection (3), and subsection (4) of section 163.31777, Florida
76Statutes, are amended to read:
77     163.31777  Public schools interlocal agreement.--
78     (1)(a)  The district school board, county, and nonexempt
79municipalities located within the geographic area of a school
80district shall enter into an interlocal agreement with the
81district school board which jointly establishes the specific
82ways in which the plans and processes of the district school
83board and the local governments are to be coordinated. The
84interlocal agreements shall be submitted to the state land
85planning agency and the Office of Educational Facilities and the
86SMART Schools Clearinghouse in accordance with a schedule
87published by the state land planning agency.
88     (b)  The schedule must establish staggered due dates for
89submission of interlocal agreements that are executed by both
90the local government and the district school board, commencing
91on March 1, 2003, and concluding by December 1, 2004, and must
92set the same date for all governmental entities within a school
93district. However, if the county where the school district is
94located contains more than 20 municipalities, the state land
95planning agency may establish staggered due dates for the
96submission of interlocal agreements by these municipalities. The
97schedule must begin with those areas where both the number of
98districtwide capital-outlay full-time-equivalent students equals
9980 percent or more of the current year's school capacity and the
100projected 5-year student growth is 1,000 or greater, or where
101the projected 5-year student growth rate is 10 percent or
102greater.
103     (b)(c)  If the student population has declined over the 5-
104year period preceding the due date for submittal of an
105interlocal agreement by the local government and the district
106school board, the local government and the district school board
107may petition the state land planning agency for a waiver of one
108or more requirements of subsection (2). The waiver must be
109granted if the procedures called for in subsection (2) are
110unnecessary because of the school district's declining school
111age population, considering the district's 5-year facilities
112work program prepared pursuant to s. 1013.35. The state land
113planning agency may modify or revoke the waiver upon a finding
114that the conditions upon which the waiver was granted no longer
115exist. The district school board and local governments must
116submit an interlocal agreement within 1 year after notification
117by the state land planning agency that the conditions for a
118waiver no longer exist.
119     (c)(d)  Interlocal agreements between local governments and
120district school boards adopted pursuant to s. 163.3177 before
121the effective date of this section must be updated and executed
122pursuant to the requirements of this section, if necessary.
123Amendments to interlocal agreements adopted pursuant to this
124section must be submitted to the state land planning agency
125within 30 days after execution by the parties for review
126consistent with this section. Local governments and the district
127school board in each school district are encouraged to adopt a
128single updated interlocal agreement to which all join as
129parties. The state land planning agency shall assemble and make
130available model interlocal agreements meeting the requirements
131of this section and notify local governments and, jointly with
132the Department of Education, the district school boards of the
133requirements of this section, the dates for compliance, and the
134sanctions for noncompliance. The state land planning agency
135shall be available to informally review proposed interlocal
136agreements. If the state land planning agency has not received a
137proposed interlocal agreement for informal review, the state
138land planning agency shall, at least 60 days before the deadline
139for submission of the executed agreement, renotify the local
140government and the district school board of the upcoming
141deadline and the potential for sanctions.
142     (2)  The interlocal agreement must acknowledge the school
143board's constitutional and statutory obligations to provide a
144uniform system of free public schools on a countywide basis and
145the land use authority of local governments, including the
146authority to approve or deny comprehensive plan amendments and
147development orders. At a minimum, The interlocal agreement must
148address interlocal-agreement requirements in s. 163.3180(13)(g),
149except for exempt local governments as provided in s.
150163.3177(12), and must address the following issues:
151     (a)  Mechanisms for coordinating the development, adoption,
152and amendment of each local government's public school
153facilities element with each other local government that is a
154party to the agreements and the plans of the school board to
155ensure a uniform districtwide school concurrency system.
156     (b)  A process for developing siting criteria that
157encourages the location of public schools proximate to urban
158residential areas to the extent possible and seeks to collocate
159schools with other public facilities, including, but not limited
160to, parks, libraries, and community centers, to the extent
161possible.

174establish a process and schedule for the mandatory incorporation
175of the school concurrency service areas and the criteria and
176standards for establishment of the service areas into the local
177government comprehensive plans. The agreement must ensure
178maximum use of school capacity, taking into account
179transportation costs and court-approved desegregation plans and
180other applicable factors.
181     (f)  A uniform districtwide procedure for implementing
182school concurrency that provides for:
183     1.  Evaluation of development applications for compliance

257subsection (1), the interlocal agreement shall not include the
258issues provided for in paragraphs (a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g),
259and (p). For counties or municipalities that do not have a
260public school interlocal agreement or public school facility
261element, the assessment shall determine whether the local
262government continues to meet the criteria of s. 163.3177(12). If
263a county or municipality determines that it no longer meets the
264criteria, the county or municipality must adopt appropriate
265school concurrency goals, objectives, and policies in its plan

280amendments. The state land planning agency shall review the
281updated executed interlocal agreement or agreement amendments to
282determine whether they are it is consistent with the
283requirements of subsection (2), the adopted local government
284comprehensive plan, and other requirements of law. Within 60
285days after receipt of an updated executed interlocal agreement
286or agreement amendments, the state land planning agency shall
287publish a notice on the agency's Internet website that states of
288intent in the Florida Administrative Weekly and shall post a
289copy of the notice on the agency's Internet site. The notice of
290intent must state whether the interlocal agreement is consistent
291or inconsistent with the requirements of subsection (2) and this
292subsection, as appropriate.
293     (4)  If an updated executed interlocal agreement is not
294timely submitted to the state land planning agency for review,
295the state land planning agency shall, within 15 working days
296after the deadline for submittal, issue to the local government
297and the district school board a Notice to Show Cause why
298sanctions should not be imposed for failure to submit an
299executed interlocal agreement by the deadline established by the
300agency. The agency shall forward the notice and the responses to
301the Administration Commission, which may enter a final order
302citing the failure to comply and imposing sanctions against the
303local government and district school board by directing the
304appropriate agencies to withhold at least 5 percent of state
305funds pursuant to s. 163.3184(11) and by directing the
306Department of Education to withhold from the district school
307board at least 5 percent of funds for school construction
308available pursuant to ss. 1013.65, 1013.68, 1013.70, and
3091013.72.
310     Section 4.  Paragraph (c) of subsection (2), paragraph (f)
311of subsection (5), subsection (7), paragraphs (e), (f), (g), and
312(h) of subsection (13), and paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (e), and
313(f) of subsection (16) of section 163.3180, Florida Statutes,
314are amended to read:
315     163.3180  Concurrency.--
316     (2)
317     (c)  Consistent with the public welfare, and except as
318otherwise provided in this section, transportation facilities
319needed to serve new development shall be in place or under
320actual construction within 3 years after the local government
321approves a building permit or its functional equivalent that
322results in traffic generation. For purposes of this paragraph
323and all provisions relating to transportation concurrency, if
324the construction funding needed for facilities is provided in
325the first 3 years of the Department of Transportation's work
326program or the local government's schedule of capital
327improvements, the under-actual-construction requirements of this
328paragraph shall be deemed to have been met.
329     (5)
330     (f)  Prior to the designation of a concurrency exception
331area, the Department of Transportation shall be consulted by the
332local government to assess the impact that the proposed
333exception area is expected to have on the adopted level-of-
334service standards established for Strategic Intermodal System
335facilities, as defined in s. 339.64, and roadway facilities
336funded in accordance with s. 339.2819. Further, the local
337government shall, in cooperation with the Department of
338Transportation, develop a plan to mitigate any impacts to the
339Strategic Intermodal System, including, if appropriate, the
340development of a long-term concurrency management system
341pursuant to subsection (9) and s. 163.3177(3)(d). The exceptions
342may be available only within the specific geographic area of the
343jurisdiction designated in the plan. Pursuant to s. 163.3184,
344any affected person may challenge a plan amendment establishing
345these guidelines and the areas within which an exception could
346be granted. By October 1, 2006, the Department of
347Transportation, after publicly noticed workshops, shall publish
348and distribute to local governments a policy guideline
349containing criteria and options to assist local governments in
350planning to assess and mitigate the impacts of a proposed
351concurrency exception area as described in this paragraph.
352     (7)  In order to promote infill development and
353redevelopment, one or more transportation concurrency management
354areas may be designated in a local government comprehensive
355plan. A transportation concurrency management area must be a
356compact geographic area with an existing network of roads where
357multiple, viable alternative travel paths or modes are available
358for common trips. A local government may establish an areawide
359level-of-service standard for such a transportation concurrency
360management area based upon an analysis that provides for a
361justification for the areawide level of service, how urban
362infill development or redevelopment will be promoted, and how
363mobility will be accomplished within the transportation
364concurrency management area. Prior to the designation of a
365concurrency management area, the Department of Transportation
366shall be consulted by the local government to assess the impact
367that the proposed concurrency management area is expected to
368have on the adopted level-of-service standards established for
369Strategic Intermodal System facilities, as defined in s. 339.64,
370and roadway facilities funded in accordance with s. 339.2819.
371Further, the local government shall, in cooperation with the
372Department of Transportation, develop a plan to mitigate any
373impacts to the Strategic Intermodal System, including, if
374appropriate, the development of a long-term concurrency
375management system pursuant to subsection (9) and s.
376163.3177(3)(d). Transportation concurrency management areas
377existing prior to July 1, 2005, shall meet, at a minimum, the
378provisions of this section by July 1, 2006, or at the time of
379the comprehensive plan update pursuant to the evaluation and
380appraisal report, whichever occurs last. The state land planning
381agency shall amend chapter 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code, to
382be consistent with this subsection. By October 1, 2006, the
383Department of Transportation, after publicly noticed workshops,
384shall publish and distribute to local governments a policy
385guideline containing criteria and options to assist local
386governments in planning to assess and mitigate the impacts of a
387proposed concurrency exception area as described in this
388paragraph.
389     (13)  School concurrency shall be established on a
390districtwide basis and shall include all public schools in the
391district and all portions of the district, whether located in a
392municipality or an unincorporated area unless exempt from the
393public school facilities element pursuant to s. 163.3177(12).
394The application of school concurrency to development shall be
395based upon the adopted comprehensive plan, as amended. All local
396governments within a county, except as provided in paragraph
397(f), shall adopt and transmit to the state land planning agency
398the necessary plan amendments, along with the interlocal
399agreement, for a compliance review pursuant to s. 163.3184(7)
400and (8). The minimum requirements for school concurrency are the
401following:
402     (e)  Availability standard.--Consistent with the public
403welfare, a local government may not deny an application for site
404plan, final subdivision approval, or the functional equivalent
405for a development or phase of a development authorizing
406residential development for failure to achieve and maintain the
407level-of-service standard for public school capacity in a local
408school concurrency management system where adequate school
409facilities will be in place or under actual construction within
4103 years after the issuance of final subdivision or site plan
411approval, or the functional equivalent. School concurrency shall
412be satisfied if the developer executes a legally binding
413commitment to provide proportionate fair-share mitigation
414against proportionate to the demand for public school facilities
415to be created by actual development of the property, including,
416but not limited to, the options described in subparagraph 1.
417Options for proportionate fair-share proportionate-share
418mitigation of impacts on public school facilities shall be
419established in the public school facilities element and the
420interlocal agreement pursuant to s. 163.31777.
421     1.  Appropriate proportionate fair-share mitigation options
422include the contribution of land; the construction, expansion,
423or payment for land acquisition or construction of a public
424school facility; or the creation of mitigation banking based on
425the construction of a public school facility in exchange for the
426right to sell capacity credits. Such options must include
427execution by the applicant and the local government of a binding
428development agreement that constitutes a legally binding
429commitment to pay proportionate fair-share proportionate-share
430mitigation for the additional residential units approved by the
431local government in a development order and actually developed
432on the property, taking into account residential density allowed
433on the property prior to the plan amendment that increased
434overall residential density. The district school board shall be
435a party to such an agreement. As a condition of its entry into
436such a development agreement, the local government may require
437the landowner to agree to continuing renewal of the agreement
438upon its expiration.
439     2.  If the education facilities plan and the public
440educational facilities element authorize a contribution of land;
441the construction, expansion, or payment for land acquisition; or
442the construction or expansion of a public school facility, or a
443portion thereof, as proportionate fair-share proportionate-share
444mitigation, the local government shall credit such a
445contribution, construction, expansion, or payment toward any
446other impact fee or exaction imposed by local ordinance for the
447same need, on a dollar-for-dollar basis at fair market value.
448     3.  Any proportionate fair-share proportionate-share
449mitigation must be directed by the school board toward a school
450capacity improvement identified in a financially feasible 5-year
451district work plan and which satisfies the demands created by
452that development in accordance with a binding developer's
453agreement.
454     4.  This paragraph does not limit the authority of a local
455government to deny a development permit or its functional
456equivalent pursuant to its home rule regulatory powers, except
457as provided in this part.
458     (f)  Intergovernmental coordination.--
459     1.  When establishing concurrency requirements for public
460schools, a local government shall satisfy the requirements for
461intergovernmental coordination set forth in s. 163.3177(6)(h)1.
462and 2., except that a municipality is not required to be a
463signatory to the interlocal agreement required by ss.
464163.3177(6)(h)2. and 163.31777(6), as a prerequisite for
465imposition of school concurrency, and as a nonsignatory, shall
466not participate in the adopted local school concurrency system,
467if the municipality meets all of the following criteria for
468having no significant impact on school attendance:
469     a.  The municipality has issued development orders for
470fewer than 50 residential dwelling units during the preceding 5
471years, or the municipality has generated fewer than 25
472additional public school students during the preceding 5 years.
473     b.  The municipality has not annexed new land during the
474preceding 5 years in land use categories which permit
475residential uses that will affect school attendance rates.
476     c.  The municipality has no public schools located within
477its boundaries.
478     d.  At least 80 percent of the developable land within the
479boundaries of the municipality has been built upon.
480     2.  A municipality which qualifies as having no significant
481impact on school attendance pursuant to the criteria of
482subparagraph 1. must review and determine at the time of its
483evaluation and appraisal report pursuant to s. 163.3191 whether
484it continues to meet the criteria pursuant to s. 163.31777(6).
485If the municipality determines that it no longer meets the
486criteria, it must adopt appropriate school concurrency goals,
487objectives, and policies in its plan amendments based on the
488evaluation and appraisal report, and enter into the existing
489interlocal agreement required by ss. 163.3177(6)(h)2. and
490163.31777, in order to fully participate in the school
491concurrency system. If such a municipality fails to do so, it
492will be subject to the enforcement provisions of s. 163.3191.
493     (g)  Interlocal agreement for school concurrency.--When
494establishing concurrency requirements for public schools, a
495local government must enter into an interlocal agreement that
496satisfies the requirements in ss. 163.3177(6)(h)1. and 2. and
497163.31777 and the requirements of this subsection. The
498interlocal agreement shall acknowledge both the school board's
499constitutional and statutory obligations to provide a uniform
500system of free public schools on a countywide basis, and the
501land use authority of local governments, including their
502authority to approve or deny comprehensive plan amendments and
503development orders. The interlocal agreement shall be submitted
504to the state land planning agency by the local government as a
505part of the compliance review, along with the other necessary
506amendments to the comprehensive plan required by this part. In
507addition to the requirements of ss. 163.3177(6)(h) and
508163.31777, the interlocal agreement shall meet the following
509requirements:
510     1.  Establish the mechanisms for coordinating the
511development, adoption, and amendment of each local government's
512public school facilities element with each other and the plans
513of the school board to ensure a uniform districtwide school
514concurrency system.
515     2.  Establish a process for the development of siting
516criteria which encourages the location of public schools
517proximate to urban residential areas to the extent possible and
518seeks to collocate schools with other public facilities such as
519parks, libraries, and community centers to the extent possible.
520     3.  Specify uniform, districtwide level-of-service
521standards for public schools of the same type and the process
522for modifying the adopted level-of-service standards.
523     4.  Establish a process for the preparation, amendment, and
524joint approval by each local government and the school board of
525a public school capital facilities program which is financially
526feasible, and a process and schedule for incorporation of the
527public school capital facilities program into the local
528government comprehensive plans on an annual basis.
529     5.  Define the geographic application of school
530concurrency. If school concurrency is to be applied on a less
531than districtwide basis in the form of concurrency service
532areas, the agreement shall establish criteria and standards for
533the establishment and modification of school concurrency service
534areas. The agreement shall also establish a process and schedule
535for the mandatory incorporation of the school concurrency
536service areas and the criteria and standards for establishment
537of the service areas into the local government comprehensive
538plans. The agreement shall ensure maximum utilization of school
539capacity, taking into account transportation costs and court-
540approved desegregation plans, as well as other factors. The
541agreement shall also ensure the achievement and maintenance of
542the adopted level-of-service standards for the geographic area
543of application throughout the 5 years covered by the public
544school capital facilities plan and thereafter by adding a new
545fifth year during the annual update.
546     6.  Establish a uniform districtwide procedure for
547implementing school concurrency which provides for:
548     a.  The evaluation of development applications for
549compliance with school concurrency requirements, including
550information provided by the school board on affected schools,
551impact on levels of service, and programmed improvements for
552affected schools and any options to provide sufficient capacity;
553     b.  An opportunity for the school board to review and
554comment on the effect of comprehensive plan amendments and
555rezonings on the public school facilities plan; and
556     c.  The monitoring and evaluation of the school concurrency
557system.
558     7.  Include provisions relating to amendment of the
559agreement.
560     8.  A process and uniform methodology for determining
561proportionate-share mitigation pursuant to subparagraph (e)1.
562     (g)(h)  Local government authority.--This subsection does
563not limit the authority of a local government to grant or deny a
564development permit or its functional equivalent prior to the
565implementation of school concurrency.
566     (16)  It is the intent of the Legislature to provide a
567method by which the impacts of development on transportation
568facilities can be mitigated by the cooperative efforts of the
569public and private sectors. The methodology used to calculate
570proportionate fair-share mitigation under this section shall be
571as provided for in subsection (12).
572     (a)  By December 1, 2006, each local government shall adopt
573by ordinance a methodology for assessing proportionate fair-
574share mitigation options. A local government that fails to adopt
575a methodology for assessing proportionate fair-share mitigation
576options by December 1, 2006, may not impose any transportation
577impact fee after that date until such methodology has been
578adopted. By December 1, 2005, the Department of Transportation
579shall develop a model transportation concurrency management
580ordinance with methodologies for assessing proportionate fair-
581share mitigation options.
582     (b)1.  In its transportation concurrency management system,
583a local government shall, by December 1, 2006, include
584methodologies that will be applied to calculate proportionate
585fair-share mitigation. A local government that fails to include
586such methodologies by December 1, 2006, may not impose any
587transportation impact fee after that date until such
588methodologies have been adopted. A developer may choose to
589satisfy all transportation concurrency requirements by
590contributing or paying proportionate fair-share mitigation if
591transportation facilities or facility segments identified as
592mitigation for traffic impacts are specifically identified for
593funding in the 5-year schedule of capital improvements in the
594capital improvements element of the local plan or the long-term
595concurrency management system or if such contributions or
596payments to such facilities or segments are reflected in the 5-
597year schedule of capital improvements in the next regularly
598scheduled update of the capital improvements element. Updates to
599the 5-year capital improvements element which reflect
600proportionate fair-share contributions may not be found not in
601compliance based on ss. 163.3164(32) 163.164(32) and 163.3177(3)
602if additional contributions, payments or funding sources are
603reasonably anticipated during a period not to exceed 10 years to
604fully mitigate impacts on the transportation facilities.
605     2.  Proportionate fair-share mitigation shall be applied as
606a credit against impact fees to the extent that all or a portion
607of the proportionate fair-share mitigation is used to address
608the same capital infrastructure improvements contemplated by the
609local government's impact fee ordinance.
610     (c)  Proportionate fair-share mitigation includes, without
611limitation, separately or collectively, private funds,
612contributions of land, and construction and contribution of
613facilities and may include public funds as determined by the
614local government. The fair market value of the proportionate
615fair-share mitigation shall not differ based on the form of
616mitigation. A local government may not require a development to
617pay more than its proportionate fair-share mitigation
618contribution regardless of the method of mitigation.
619     (e)  Mitigation for development impacts to facilities on
620the Strategic Intermodal System made pursuant to this subsection
621requires the concurrence of the Department of Transportation.
622The department has 30 days from the date of submission by the
623applicable local government to concur or withhold concurrence
624with the mitigation of development impacts to facilities on the
625Strategic Intermodal System. If the department does not respond
626within the 30-day period, the department is deemed to have
627concurred with the mitigation.
628     (f)  If In the event the funds in an adopted 5-year capital
629improvements element are insufficient to fully fund construction
630of a transportation improvement required by the local
631government's concurrency management system, a local government
632and a developer may still enter into a binding proportionate
633fair-share mitigation proportionate-share agreement authorizing
634the developer to construct that amount of development on which
635the proportionate fair-share mitigation proportionate share is
636calculated if the proportionate fair-share mitigation
637proportionate-share amount in such agreement is sufficient to
638pay for one or more improvements which will, in the opinion of
639the governmental entity or entities maintaining the
640transportation facilities, significantly benefit the impacted
641transportation system. The improvement or improvements funded by
642the proportionate fair-share mitigation proportionate-share
643component must be adopted into the 5-year capital improvements
644schedule of the comprehensive plan at the next annual capital
645improvements element update.

7321013.33, Florida Statutes, are amended to read:
733     1013.33  Coordination of planning with local governing
734bodies.--
735     (2)(a)  The school board, county, and nonexempt
736municipalities located within the geographic area of a school
737district shall enter into an interlocal agreement that jointly
738establishes the specific ways in which the plans and processes
739of the district school board and the local governments are to be
740coordinated. Any updated The interlocal agreements and agreement
741amendments shall be submitted to the state land planning agency
742and the Office of Educational Facilities and the SMART Schools
743Clearinghouse in accordance with a schedule published by the
744state land planning agency pursuant to s. 163.3177(12)(i).
745     (b)  The schedule must establish staggered due dates for
746submission of interlocal agreements that are executed by both
747the local government and district school board, commencing on
748March 1, 2003, and concluding by December 1, 2004, and must set
749the same date for all governmental entities within a school

807growth and student enrollment. The geographic distribution of
808jurisdiction-wide growth forecasts is a major objective of the
809process.
810     (b)  A process to coordinate and share information relating
811to existing and planned public school facilities, including
812school renovations and closures, and local government plans for
813development and redevelopment.
814     (c)  Participation by affected local governments with the
815district school board in the process of evaluating potential
816school closures, significant renovations to existing schools,
817and new school site selection before land acquisition. Local
818governments shall advise the district school board as to the
819consistency of the proposed closure, renovation, or new site
820with the local comprehensive plan, including appropriate
821circumstances and criteria under which a district school board
822may request an amendment to the comprehensive plan for school
823siting.
824     (d)  A process for determining the need for and timing of
825onsite and offsite improvements to support new construction,
826proposed expansion, or redevelopment of existing schools. The
827process shall address identification of the party or parties
828responsible for the improvements.
829     (e)  A process for the school board to inform the local
830government regarding the effect of comprehensive plan amendments
831on school capacity. The capacity reporting must be consistent
832with laws and rules regarding measurement of school facility
833capacity and must also identify how the district school board
834will meet the public school demand based on the facilities work
835program adopted pursuant to s. 1013.35.
836     (f)  Participation of the local governments in the
837preparation of the annual update to the school board's 5-year
838district facilities work program and educational plant survey
839prepared pursuant to s. 1013.35.
840     (g)  A process for determining where and how joint use of
841either school board or local government facilities can be shared
842for mutual benefit and efficiency.
843     (h)  A procedure for the resolution of disputes between the

848public participation, for the implementation of the interlocal
849agreement.
850     (12)  As early in the design phase as feasible and
851consistent with an interlocal agreement entered pursuant to
852subsections (2)-(8), but no later than 120 90 days before
853commencing construction, the district school board shall in
854writing request a determination of consistency with the local
855government's comprehensive plan. The local governing body that
856regulates the use of land shall determine, in writing within 45
857days after receiving the necessary information and a school
858board's request for a determination, whether a proposed
859educational facility is consistent with the local comprehensive
860plan and consistent with local land development regulations. If
861the determination is affirmative, school construction may
862commence and further local government approvals are not
863required, except as provided in this section. Failure of the
864local governing body to make a determination in writing within
86590 days after a district school board's request for a
866determination of consistency shall be considered an approval of
867the district school board's application. Campus master plans and
868development agreements must comply with the provisions of ss.
8691013.30 and 1013.63.
