Common use of Supporting Infrastructure Clause in Contracts

Supporting Infrastructure. 7.1 On-Site and Off-Site Infrastructure Improvements. In accordance with Sections 1013.33 (3)(d) and 163.31777(2)(d) F.S., the School Board and affected Local Governments will jointly determine the need for and timing of on-site and off-site improvements necessary to support a new school or changes to an existing school facility that may affect public infrastructure. The School Board and the Local Governments agree that the primary responsibility for constructing, operating and maintaining required infrastructure improvements shall be divided as follows: a. The School Board is responsible for 1. On-site infrastructure improvements necessary to support the school; 2. Right-of-way dedications necessary to accommodate off-site infrastructure (turn lanes, sidewalks, etc.) adjacent to the school property; and 3. Extension of water and sewer lines required to serve the educational or ancillary facility. This provision is not intended to require the School Board to dedicate property or pay for improvements or construction of facilities of a general district- wide or regional nature which exceeds the School Board’s proportionate share of the cost. By virtue of this subsection, the School Board is not waiving any local governmental responsibility for reimbursement per Chapter 1013, F.S. b. The Local Government is responsible for 1. Acceleration/deceleration/by-pass lanes on roads contiguous to the school site; 2. School cross-walk pavement striping; 3. School zone flashing lights; 4. Traffic signals that are required on public roads; 5. Sidewalks needed within the two mile walk zone of a school; 6. Reduced speed limit zones and signage; and 7. Fire hydrant main extension.
