  • Section 5.15 School Facilities
    Section 5.15 School Facilities SECTION 5.15 SCHOOL FACILITIES This section identifies school facilities within the City of Buena Park and evaluates the potential impacts to school services and facilities that could result from implementation of the proposed General Plan Update. Mitigation measures to reduce the significance of impacts are recommended, as necessary. 5.15.1 EXISTING SETTING SCHOOL FACILITIES There are five elementary and two high school districts serving students living within the City of Buena Park. These school districts provide educational services for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. School facilities within these seven districts include 14 elementary schools, one junior high school, one high school, one alternative high school, and one special education center. Refer to Table 5.15-1, Public School Characteristics, for enrollment and capacity information for the public schools currently serving the City. Additionally, the Speech and Language Development Center is located at 8699 Holder Street and three private schools are located within the City of Buena Park, including the Crescent Avenue Christian School, Rossier Park School, and Saint Pius V School. SCHOOL FUNDING In order to accommodate students from new development projects, school districts may alternatively finance new schools through special school construction funding resolutions and/or agreements between developers, the affected school districts, and occasionally, other local governmental agencies. These special resolutions and agreements often allow school districts to realize school mitigation funds in excess of the developer fees allowed under SB 50. Table 5.15-2, School Development Fees, identifies the current fees each school district charges for new development within the applicable school district.
