Agenda Title:
Authorization for a Public Hearing to Consider Creation of the Jackson Village and Alexander's Crossing Special Service District
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors authorize a public hearing to consider the creation of the Jackson Village and Alexander's Crossing Special Service District.
Summary:
The Board of Supervisors directed staff to develop an ordinance to establish a Special Service District (SSD) over the property included in the Jackson Village and Alexander's Crossing rezonings. The attached ordinance is consistent with Board direction creating a SSD including the two rezoning projects and including portions of Rt 1 and Massaponax Church Road adjacent to the projects. The proposed special tax rate is set at $0.30 per $100. The funding may be used for improvements to Rt. 1 and Massaponax Church Road adjacent to the project and to fund construction of a bridge over I-95 between the two projects. The boundary does include several Industrial 1 (I-1) zoned parcels along Rt. 1 in order to have a contiguous district, but the ordinance exempts I-1 zoned land from the special tax. So, while the I-1 parcels are included in the boundary, there will be no tax consequence associated with the district to those parcels.
Staff Contacts:
Wanda Parrish, Director of Planning
Legal Counsel:
Susan Cooke, Deputy County Attorney
Additional Background/Other Considerations:
The estimated cumulative special tax revenue at $0.30 per $100 in year 20 is about $20M based on the build out as projected in the Fiscal Impact Analysis reports prepared by the applicants for the projects.
Consequence of Denial/Inaction:
A public hearing will not be conducted to consider establishment of this Special Service District.
