School Capacity & Concurrency
The Hernando County School District, in cooperation with the local governments of Hernando County and the City of Brooksville, participates in a concurrency management system to ensure public schools are planned in time and place with the plans for residential development, along with other necessary public services. In a standalone school concurrency review process, but parallel with the Local Governments’ review of the adequacy of other public facilities, the School District will determine whether sufficient school capacity is available to accommodate the student demand created by each proposed residential development. It should be noted that a school concurrency review is not required for commercial or industrial developments, as these do not create a demand for student capacity.
At various stages in the review process, depending on the size of the development and the school capacity available at the time, applicants can request the following types of reviews:
- No or De Minimis Impact Letter
- School Concurrency Analysis & Finding
- School Concurrency Analysis & Finding AMENDMENT
- Time Extension (6 months, one time only)
- Proportionate Share Mitigation Agreement
- Capacity Improvement Agreement
- Appeal (all types of concurrency findings)
Each review type is initiated by submitting a School Capacity Application, which can be downloaded from the link below. Complete application packets will include:
- The application form
- A conditional plat or site plan
- A Letter of Authorization (when the applicant is not the property owner)
- A check for the applicable fee, based on the type of review requested
Application packets should be mailed or delivered to the address shown below.
School Capacity Applications will not be processed for review until deemed complete by a school district representative. Complete applications will be processed and reviewed in the order received.
