SUMMARY:
On March 8, 1984, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 13-84 which established the Urban Core Redevelopment Trust Fund and provided funding “for the duration of any community redevelopment project undertaken in the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Area”. City Council adopted Resolution No. 15-84 which approved a community redevelopment plan for the Urban Core, which plan was revised on April 6, 1989 to identify the redevelopment activities to be undertaken. The revised community redevelopment plan, dated 1989, as amended was repealed on January 14, 2010 and the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Plan, dated 2010, was adopted.
Pursuant to Chapter 163, Part III, Florida Statutes (F.S.):
“Every community redevelopment plan shall….Provide a time certain for completing all redevelopment financed by (tax) increment revenues. “If the community redevelopment plan is amended or modified pursuant to F.S. 163.361(1), each such taxing authority shall make the annual appropriation (of tax increment revenues) for a period not to exceed 30 years after the date the governing body amends the plan but no later than 60 years after the fiscal year in which the plan was initially approved or adopted.”
The Urban Core Community Redevelopment Plan, dated 2010, provides that all projects financed by tax increment revenues must be completed by fiscal year 2040. The maximum number of years currently allowed under Chapter 163, Part II, Florida Statues for funding of the Urban Core Redevelopment Trust Fund is sixty (60) years from initial plan adoption. The proposed amendment extends the completion date of community redevelopment activities financed by tax increment revenues in the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Area to December 31, 2043.
Additionally, the development of key affordable housing programs and projects during 2017 through 2018 provide for additional specificity of affordable housing elements for incorporation into the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Plan, 2010. The proposed amendment specifies the Residential Rehabilitation, Infill and New Housing Element and Administration and Professional Consulting Services elements.
