Fort Walton Beach Ordinance — 1757 Public School Facilities Element — reading text

negative growth in middle schools and in the last three years for high schools and only a modest gain of just over 300 students in the elementary grades through 2011- 12. Therefore the 2007 FISH capacity for each school is appropriate based on the 2007 forecast. There are existing and projected facility surpluses and deficiencies within concurrency service areas. According to Table 15 of the Okaloosa County Tentative Work Program, as submitted to DOE in September 2007, the 5- year planned costs for capacity is $ 128. 5 million and Tablel6 of the Work Program showed a budget of $ 128. 5 million therefore the plan is cost feasible. The School Board does not anticipate incurring any additional debt over the next five years, but the district has the ability to incur an additional $ 63 Million in debt. No binding fair share mitigation commitments are part of the current 5- year work plan. The plan will be amended if new commitments are made. Concurrence Service Areas For purposes of school planning and the implementation of school concurrency, this plan establishes " concurrency service areas" for Okaloosa County schools. The proposed concurrency service areas ( CSAs) correspond to the High School Attendance Zones. The County is divided into six school CSAs ( see PSFE Map A and Table 13). Okaloosa County—9- 27- 07 24 Final Deliverable Okaloosa County Public Schools Facilities Element Data & Analysis  Concurrency Service Area 1 consists of northwest Okaloosa County. This CSA is sparsely populated and contains one public ( K- 12) school. Concurrency Service Area 2 consists of extreme northeast Okaloosa County. This CSA is sparsely populated and includes the City of Laurel Hill. It contains one public ( K- 12) school. Concurrency Service Area 3 is centrally located but north of Eglin Air Force Base and includes the City of Crestview. There are 8 schools in CSA 3 ( 5 elementary, 2 middle, and 1 high school). Concurrency Service Area 4 includes southeast Okaloosa County generally north of Choctawhatchee Bay and south of the Eglin Air Force Reservation. The Cities of Niceville and Valparaiso, and 2 elementary schools on the military base are in CSA 4 for a total of 9 schools ( 6 elementary, 2 middle and 1 high school). Concurrency Service Area 5 includes central southwest Okaloosa County in an area of land south of Eglin Air Force Base. The Town of Shalimar and the unincorporated areas known as Wright City and Ocean are in CSA 5 as well as 8 schools (5 elementary, 2 middle and 1 high school). Concurrency Service Area 6 includes extreme South Okaloosa County in an area that runs along the coastline from the Santa Rosa County line ( Florosa) to the Walton County line Including the City Destin and Okaloosa Island. It is surrounded by Eglin Air Force Base, the intercostal waterway and the Gulf of Mexico and shares part of the coastline with the Eglin Reservation. The Cities of Fort Walton Beach, Mary Esther, and the Town of Cinco Bayou are in CSA 6 and just like CSA 5 it has 8 schools (5 elementary, 2 middle and 1 high school).

The School District' s 5- Year Facilities Work Program is then examined in relation to COFTE projections for the five- year period. The results of this analysis are summarized in Tables PSFE 14, 15 & 16 for CSA 1; Tables 17, 18 & 19 for CSA 2; Tables 20, 21 & 22 for CSA 3; Tables 23, 24 & 25 for CSA 4; Tables 26, 27 & 28 for CSA 5; and Tables 29, 30 & 31 for CSA 6. No school closures are planned at this time. Tables 14- 31 contain the best available data for enrollment, surpluses and deficiencies for the five-year and long term planning periods including costs. There will be no long- term data concerning surpluses and deficiencies until 2008 so it is not included with this analysis. The School Board with cooperation from the County
