Objective 10.1.10. - Funding of Needs Related to New Growth.


Latest version.
  • Utilize funding derived directly from growth to offset costs for provision of public facilities to serve this new growth where a nexus between both is established.

    Policy 10.1.10.1. Establish or facilitate, and re-evaluate needs as necessary, for impact fees, user fees, special assessments, community development districts or other revenue sources designed to recapture the costs of providing facilities and services to new growth. The Board of County Commissioners shall, at least once annually in the annual Growth Management meeting or at other public hearings, determine which revenue sources of this kind are appropriate and may adjust existing fees.

    A.

    Schedule of Capital Improvement Element Projects.

    Manatee County has fiscal responsibility for the capital improvements contained in this element. The capital projects summarized in Table 10-1 will remain abreast of replacements, reduce existing deficiencies, and meet future demand for public facilities. Table 10-1 contains a brief description of each project, the Construction Districts in which projects are located (see Manatee County Land Development Code Ordinance No. 15-17, Chapter 8, Impact Fees for a description of Construction Districts, shown in Figure 10-1), the funding source for the project, and the annual capital expenditure.

    Project dates contained in Table 10-1 shall be considered as the year in which project construction, or activities related to project construction, are anticipated and are required.

    State roadway projects shown in this list are not indicated as projects which must be funded by Manatee County. The list is provided to reflect needs that may be funded by the State, or partially/completely funded by other means (including funding by Manatee County or other sources pursuant to Policy 5.2.2.7).

    The State's Comprehensive Planning legislation (Ch. 163, F.S.) allows local governments to make some changes to the information in Table 10-1 without going through the plan amendment process. The Board of County Commissioners may change Table 10-1 for corrections, updates, and modifications concerning: (a) costs, (b) revenue sources, (c) acceptance of facilities pursuant to dedications which are consistent with the plan, and (d) the date of construction of any facility enumerated in the CIE. For example, the year of construction of any item in the list can be changed by local ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners. Therefore, the prioritization of capital projects is flexible enough to respond to changing conditions in Manatee County. An example of this scenario may result from the unanticipated dedication of land to Manatee County for use as a district park. If the need for this park were already identified in the CIE, the County could shift funds set aside for land acquisition into construction and thereby provide the new district park earlier than originally planned.

    Table 10-1 does not include specific projects that are classified as Other General Government or Other Enterprise Operations. The Other General Government category includes capital improvements such as public safety facilities, libraries, local road resurfacing, and the purchase of equipment. The Other Enterprise Operations category includes capital improvements such as golf courses and the Civic Center. Although the CIE does not contain an itemized list of Other General Government or Other Enterprise Operations projects, the financial impact of these categories is included in the fiscal analysis of the annual capital budget.

    Projected Costs and Revenue Sources by Type of Public Facility.

    Table 10-2 matches General capital facilities with the specific revenue and finance alternatives which Manatee County will use to fund the necessary capital improvements. Following the table are brief descriptions of each revenue and finance option.

    Enterprise operations have an entirely different set of revenue and finance options for capital improvements. Funding sources for enterprise operations are identified for each type of public facility in Table 10-3. Following the table are brief descriptions of each revenue and finance option.

    Projected revenue and expenditures for capital projects are summarized in Table 10-4. All dollar amounts have been rounded, in most cases, to indicate that the CIE is intended to be a policy document and not a precise accounting balance sheet. Table 10-5 is a listing of potential alternative revenue sources for public facility projects.

    NOTES TO TABLE 10-2

    MANATEE COUNTY GENERAL GOVERNMENT

    EXISTING REVENUE SOURCES

    Property Taxes (Ad Valorem)

    Property taxes are based on a millage rate (one (1) mil is the equivalent of one dollar ($1.00) per one million dollars ($1,000.00) of assessed value or 0.1 percent), which is applied to the total taxable value of all real property and other tangible personal property.

    User Charges

    These fees are derived from the operation of publicly owned and operated facilities such as tennis and racquetball courts. Each type of public facility has a unique rate structure that is periodically evaluated and adjusted.

    Impact Fees

    These fees are charged concurrent with new development and are designated for infrastructure to serve the new development. Parks, Emergency Medical, and Road impact fees are included in the general government category.

    Special Assessments

    Social assessments can be used to correct existing deficiencies, fund renewal and replacement of facilities, and pay for improvements of direct benefit to certain properties. Assessments are levied on the front footage or area basis, not on an ad valorem basis. They have been used to fund specific capital improvements such as local streets and sidewalks, neighborhood sewer and water lines, and street lighting. However, special assessments can also be used to fund major roads. Local government often increases private land values through various activities such as the provision of road improvements. A special assessment exaction could be used to allow local government to recapture some of the costs of capital improvements. Such a mechanism is reasonable based on the increased property value created by action of the local government.

    Gas Taxes

    The State of Florida collects taxes on each gallon of motor fuel sold in Manatee County and then gives three (3) cents per gallon sold back to the County as shared revenue. The voters of Manatee County approved an additional one (1) cent per gallon gas tax. The Board of County Commissioners also approved six (6) cents per gallon in local option gas taxes of eleven (11) cents per gallon they are authorized to enact.

    Tourist Development Tax

    Manatee County adopted this optional tax as a three (3) percent surtax on short-term rentals at hotels, motels, condominiums, and apartments. This tax is designed to raise money for tourist-related facilities and projects. Manatee County will use one (1) cent of this tax as a revenue source for beach renourishment, erosion control, and beach maintenance projects.

    Intergovernmental Transfers

    Many of these funds are not distributed by allocation, but rather require competitive applications. Consequently, funds like Community Development Block Grants are generally non-recurring and difficult to project for budgeting purposes.

    EXISTING FINANCE ALTERNATIVES

    General Obligation Bonds

    These bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the local government and must be approved by voter referendum. General Obligation Bonds offer lower interest rates than other bonds because they are secured by the taxing power of the local government.

    Revenue Bonds

    The money obtained from the issuance of these bonds is used to finance publicly owned facilities, such as correctional facilities or roadways. Bonds may be backed by sales tax revenues, or other revenues over which Manatee County has discretion for spending. Issuance of revenue bonds may be approved by the Board of County Commissioners without voter referendum.

    POTENTIAL REVENUE SOURCES

    Stormwater Management Fee

    The proposed Stormwater Management Fee, to be approved by the Board of County Commissioners, would provide funds to solve stormwater quality and quantity problems in Manatee County. This new revenue source, primarily a stormwater utility fee, will be used to construct drainage facilities, and will also be used to fund operational costs associated with water quality-related government functions. The County's monthly utility billing system will collect the fees from property owners, based on the amount of impervious surface on a parcel of land.

    POTENTIAL FINANCIAL ALTERNATIVE

    Local Government Development Agreements

    This form of privatization is basically a non-debt financing alternative that gets the private sector directly involved in the financing, building, and operation of a facility. These agreements must include a phasing schedule showing that public facilities will be available concurrent with the impact of the proposed development, a description of the public facilities with the general location and approximate date of construction, and the parties responsible for the construction and operation of the facilities until they are deeded to Manatee County.

    NOTES TO TABLE 10-3

    MANATEE COUNTY ENTERPRISE OPERATIONS

    EXISTING REVENUE SOURCES

    Charges and Sales

    Water sales and other user charges are derived from the operation of publicly owned and operated facilities such a utilities, golf courses, and mass transit. Each type of public facility has a unique rate structure that is periodically evaluated and adjusted.

    Impact Fees and Facility Investment Fees

    These fees are charged concurrent with new development and are designated for infrastructure to serve the new development. In Manatee County, solid waste impact fees are grouped under enterprise operations. The public water and sewer capacity fees are called facility investment fees.

    Special Assessments

    Special assessments can be used to correct existing deficiencies, to fund renewal and replacement of facilities and to pay for improvements of direct benefit to certain properties. Assessments are levied on a front footage or area basis, not on an ad valorem basis. They have been used to fund specific capital improvements such as local streets and sidewalks, neighborhood sewer and water lines, and street lighting. However, Special Assessments can also be used to fund major utility lines. Local government often increases private land values through various activities such as the construction of major water and sewer lines. A special assessment exaction could be used to allow local government to recapture some of the costs of capital improvements. Such a mechanism is reasonable based on the increased property value created by action of the local government.

    Intergovernmental Transfers

    Many of these funds are not distributed by allocation, but rather require competitive applications. Consequently, these grants are generally non-recurring and difficult to project for budgeting purpose. Examples of federal grants received by Manatee County are Urban Mass Transit Administration Grants and Environmental Protection Agency Grants.

    EXISTING FINANCE ALTERNATIVE

    Revenue Bonds

    The money obtained from the issuance of these bonds is used to finance publicly owned facilities, such as a wastewater treatment plant, and then the users of these facilities retire the bond obligations. Because revenue bonds are financed by those directly benefitting from the capital improvement, the capital project is self-supporting. Issuance of revenue bonds may be approved by the Board of County Commissioners without voter referendum.

    POTENTIAL FINANCING ALTERNATIVE

    Local Government Development (and Other) Agreements

    This form of privatization is basically a non-debt financing alternative that gets the private sector directly involved in the financing, building, and operation of a facility. Local Government Development Agreements must include a phasing schedule showing that public facilities will be available concurrent with the impacts of the proposed development, a description of the public facilities with the general location and approximate date of construction, and parties responsible for the construction and operation of the facilities until they are deeded to Manatee County.

    Other development agreements between Manatee County Utilities and Public Works Departments and private or public parties may also be used to fund capital facilities (e.g., line extensions, infrastructure oversizing), and can be negotiated without the adoption of Local Government Development Agreement under Ch. 163.3220 (et seq.), F.S.

    • Costs;

    • Revenue sources;

    • Acceptance of facilities pursuant to dedications which are consistent with the plan; and

    • The date of construction of any facility enumerated in the capital improvements element.
