The July 18 meeting is a bit lighter than recent meetings but could still be a long day.
There are no proclamations in this meeting so after the usual introductory items, they will be jumping right into the Public Safety Report and the Clerk of the Court’s report.
Then on to the Consent Agenda where there are 42 items to be approved.
Here are a few items on the Consent Agenda that may be of interest.
Items 4 and 5 are to approve transfer of impact fee credits from the Marshall Creek PUD to the Stokes Landing Workforce Housing Development and the Bridgewater PUD.
Items 6 is approval of School Concurrency Proportionate Share Mitigation Agreements for Greenbriar Helow PUD HBIS.
“The proportionate share mitigation for the HBIS Property for the 1,144 non-age restricted units is $18,208,155.00, which is being satisfied by the dedication of a 63 acre school site valued at $4,482,932.00 and the payment of the balance of the required proportionate share mitigation in the amount of $13,725,223.00 or $11,997.58 per unit. Dedication of the school site is required on or before December 31, 2023 and the remaining mitigation is required to be paid prior to Construction Plan approval. The Agreement also authorizes school impact fee credits in the amount of the total proportionate share mitigation. The Agreement was approved by the St. Johns County School Board on June 13, 2023, pursuant to the School Concurrency Interlocal Agreement, and the proposed Agreement must also be approved and executed by the BCC.”
The Item 7 description is approval of the School Concurrency Proportionate Share Mitigation agreement for Momentum Twin Creeks.
Interestingly, the supporting document for Item 7 is for Transportation mitigation.
