SUMMARY:

                                          

On October 26, 2000, City Council adopted the Urban Infill and Redevelopment Area Plan (“Plan”) pursuant to Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Statutes.  City Council amended and re-adopted the Plan on October 27, 2005 by adoption of Ordinance No. 15-05 to incorporate the Eastside Neighborhood Plan element.  Subsequently, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 16-05 to establish the Eastside Neighborhood Redevelopment Trust Fund providing funding for implementation of the Plan through Tax Increment Financing (TIF) pursuant to Chapter 163, Part III, Florida Statutes.  Funding of the Eastside Neighborhood Redevelopment Trust Fund was approved for a period of twenty (20) years, commencing on January 1, 2006 and for each of the 19 years thereafter.  An additional amendment to the Plan was adopted by City Council on August 28, 2014, adding program elements.

 

In accordance with Section 163.362(10) of the Florida Statutes:

 

“Every community redevelopment plan shall… Provide a time certain for completing all redevelopment financed by increment revenues.  …for any agency created after July 1, 2002, the time certain for completing all redevelopment financed by increment revenues must occur within 40 years after the fiscal year in which the plan is approved or adopted.”

 

On April 10, 2017, the Community Redevelopment Agency recommended that City Council approve a twenty (20) year extension of the Eastside Neighborhood Redevelopment Trust Fund.  On May 8, 2017, the Community Redevelopment Agency voted to recommend that City Council amend the Urban Infill and Redevelopment Area Plan to establish and incorporate therein a time certain for completing all redevelopment financed by TIF.  The maximum number of years currently allowed under Chapter 163, Part III, Florida Statutes for funding the Eastside Neighborhood Redevelopment Trust Fund is forty (40) years.  Funding commenced on January 1, 2006 and will continue for each of 39 years thereafter, extending the Trust Fund to its maximum term.
