The newly adopted <br />Student Generation Rates became effective the 2010 -11 school year with the November <br />15, 2010 CAPS system update. The current standards are shown in Attachment ILE.1. <br />Both Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill - Carrboro City Schools have recognized a <br />larger increase in students generated from developments in both districts, particularly the <br />multi - family housing. The SAPFOTAC discussed the increased number of students <br />generated in both districts. While this may be a short term trend caused by the current <br />economic climate or other factors, the SAPFOTAC recommends further evaluation of the <br />adopted Student Generation Rates. <br />Also, it should be noted that students are generated from new housing as well as from <br />existing housing where new families have moved in. The CAPS system estimates new <br />development impacts and associated student generation but it is important to understand <br />.E <br />52 <br />
