The term "student generation rate" refers to the number of public school <br />students per housing unit in each school system-Orange County and Chapel Hill-Carrboro <br />City Schools. Public school students are a subset of school-aged children, which includes <br />students in private schools and home-schooled children. <br />Student generation rates are important demographic factors that help account for variations in <br />demand for school facilities by type of housing. Students per housing unit are held constant <br />over the projection period since the impact fees represent a "snapshot approach" of current <br />levels of service and costs. <br />The student generation rates provided by Orange County Planning are from an analysis <br />conducted in 2005. Student generation rates were provided by housing unit type for the <br />categories used in each district. That is, for Orange County, rates are provided for each type of <br />unit: (1) Single Family Detached, (2) Single Family Attached/Multifamily, and (3) Manufactured <br />Homes. For CHCCS, rates are provided for: (1) Single Family Detached, (2) Single Family <br />Attached, (3) Multifamily, and (4) Manufactured Homes. In addition, the rates reflect demand <br />by type of school level-elementary, middle, and high. <br />To reflect 2006-07 demand for school facilities by housing unit type, the rates need to be <br />calibrated to current conditions. TischlerBise calibrated the 2005 rates to current housing units <br />and enrollment in each school system. T'he result is updated student generation rates by type of <br />unit by school level for each school district. Details are provided by school system below. <br />A-4 <br />Tischter~ise <br />-Fiser.Eecwmle E< ~Ixnningwnw!Unis <br />
