RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Lake-Sumter Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) was created
through interlocal agreement between Lake County, Sumter County, and the 14 municipalities of
Lake County and was approved by Gov. Jeb Bush on December 9, 2003; and
WHEREAS, the MPO is responsible for managing a continuing, cooperative, and
comprehensive transportation planning process for Lake and Sumter counties; and
WHEREAS, transportation concurrency is a growth management principle that ensures
the necessary transportation facilities and services are available concurrent with the impacts of
development; and
WHEREAS, new development must assure that adequate roadway capacity is available
concurrent with the impacts of the proposed development and that the proposed development
will not degrade the roadway below the adopted level of service standards; and
WHEREAS, the counties, the MPO and the municipalities wish to ensure that level of
service standards for transportation facilities are maintained throughout the county; and
WHEREAS, the counties, the MPO, and the municipalities are working together to
develop a centralized transportation concurrency management system that will facilitate effective
intergovernmental coordination on transportation facilities; and
WHEREAS, the centralized transportation concurrency management system was
developed by Lake County and has been turned over to the MPO for centralized implementation
at no cost to the MPO; and
WHEREAS, Sumter County and the City of Wildwood have developed transportation
concurrency management systems; and
WHEREAS, the MPO will, as part of such centralized transportation concurrency
management system, maintain the data to be used by the counties and the municipalities in
making their concurrency determinations.
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual terms, understandings,
conditions, and payment hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound, the parties
hereby agree as follows:
Article 1. Recitals
1.1 The foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
Article 2. Purpose
2.1 The purpose of this Agreement is to implement a centralized database of transportation
concurrency information that all parties to the agreement may utilize as part of their
individual concurrency management systems as prescribed within their individual
comprehensive plan and land development regulations. Data on development
applications, vested and existing development, and traffic count information will be
provided to the MPO by the counties and the municipalities. The MPO will maintain a
database and model which will show impacts that proposed development will have on the
transportation system and will provide results of such modeling to the counties and
municipalities.
Article 3. Procedure
3.1 So that the centralized transportation concurrency management system (TCMS) will
contain the most current information available, local governments will provide to the
MPO any legally vested trips, any formally reserved trips and certificate of occupancy
information. Initial information, to the extent available, shall be provided within ninety
(90) days of the effective date of this agreement, and thereafter during the term of this
agreement on a monthly basis.
3.2 Local governments may submit data from any applicant who is seeking a development
approval for a project, including the traffic impact analysis, the number of proposed
residential units and amount of non-residential square footage by use in accordance with
the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation
Manual.
3.3 Upon receipt of such data by the MPO, the following procedure shall be implemented in
order to provide the local government with the information required in a timely fashion:
1) Provided the data received is determined to be sufficient to issue a report of
findings, the MPO will evaluate the data based upon existing road capacity
information, including adopted level of service, existing trips, reserved trips and
vested trips, and submit a report of its findings within 15 calendar days of receipt
of the request.
2) If the local government determines that additional information should be factored
into the analysis, it may submit its comments for evaluation to the MPO within 15
calendar days of the issuance of the MPO's concurrency report for that
application.
3) The MPO will review additional information submitted by the local government
and provide final comments within 15 calendar days of the submittal of new
information.
4) If the facility is a SIS (Strategic Intermodal System) facility or if the facility is a
non-SIS state facility operating at 90 percent capacity or greater, the Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) will be consulted for comments on
proposed impacts. If no comments are received from FDOT within 30 days, the
MPO will issue its report based upon existing data.
3.4 The MPO will not make concurrency determinations on behalf of any local government.
The MPO will issue a report of findings based on the data maintained by the MPO and
the data submitted by the local government. The responsibility to make concurrency
determinations on development applications remains with the local government.
3.5 The MPO will, upon request, assist any government in assessing needed changes by such
local government to its comprehensive plan policies or land development regulations
related to transportation concurrency or transportation impacts.
Article 4. Term
4.1 This Agreement shall become effective January 1, 2008.
4.2 This Agreement shall remain in effect until terminated by the parties to this Agreement,
or as otherwise provided by law. Any party may withdraw from this Agreement after
presenting, in written form, a notice of intent to withdraw presented to the other parties of
this Agreement, at least ninety (90) days prior to the intended date of withdrawal. The
withdrawing party and the remaining parties shall execute a memorandum reflecting the
legal withdrawal of the party and the alteration of list of parties that are signatories to this
Agreement.
4.3 If for any reason this Agreement is terminated, the TCMS and its associated data will be
returned to Lake County at no cost to the County. The transportation concurrency
management systems of Sumter County and the City of Wildwood will also be returned
at no cost.
Article 5. Funding
5.1 Each local government will pay the MPO to fund the TCMS an amount based upon its
population percentage, as attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit A. The
initial payments shall be made by January 1, 2008 and thereafter shall be made October 1
of each year.
5.2 In each odd numbered year, the population figures and related contributions will be
reviewed and adjusted as necessary for population changes. Funding contributions will be
adjusted based upon Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) population
figures. The updated information will be provided to each local government by May 31st.
The new contribution rates shall become effective October 1st.
Article 6. Annual Report
6.1 An Annual Report on the status of all facilities included in the TCMS shall be published
each year and may be used in the MPO annual project prioritization process.
Article 7. General Provisions
7.1 This Agreement, and any amendments hereto, maybe simultaneously executed in several
counterparts, each of which is executed shall be an original, and such counterparts
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
