This layer displays spot elevations for Tallahassee and Leon County Florida. Spot elevations display the actual elevation of a selected point on the ground. The features displayed in this layer depict ground conditions at the time the source imagery was acquired. Two source imagery sets were used to compile the features in this layer. The imagery sets were acquired during two discrete missions during 1988 and 1991. The precise dates of theses flights are not available. The Basemap 8891 Project:Basemap8891 is a compendium of two different dates of planimetric and topographic data that formed the first aerial-compiled basemap for Tallahassee-Leon GIS. In 1988, the City of Tallahassee Stormwater division commissioned stereo aerial photography covering 100 square miles (the City of Tallahassee limits and surrounding area). The planimetric data compiled using an analytical stereo plotter. Likewise, the contours were hand-traced from the stereo imagery and the spot elevations were hand placed using the stereo imagery. Orthoimagery was not produced from this imagery. The planimetric and topographic data was delivered by PLSS Section in dwg CAD files. In 1991, Leon County commissioned a countywide flight with similar product deliverables for the unincorporated portion of Leon County. The 1988 data and the 1991 data was merged together to create the first basemap for the Tallahassee-Leon County community. The base scale of both flights is 1:1200.

The Promise Zone designation partners the Federal government with local leaders who are addressing multiple community revitalization challenges in a collaborative way. Promise Zones are high poverty communities where the federal government partners with local leaders to increase economic activity, improve educational opportunities, leverage private investment, reduce violent crime, enhance public health and address other priorities identified by the community. The program was administered by The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)There were three application cycles for Promise Zone designations (2014, 2015, 2016) with a total of 22 designated urban, rural and tribal Promise Zone communities across the country. The City of Tallahassee submitted an application for Promise Zone designation in all three application cycles (2014, 2015 and 2016). All three City applications included a Memorandum of Understanding between Leon County and the City of Tallahassee in seeking the Federal Promise Zone designation. The Tallahassee/Leon County Promise Zone boundaries were developed jointly by City and County staff and approved by both the City and County Commissions. The same Promise Zone boundary was included in all three application cycles.Promise Zone designation are given preference when applying for specified federal grants to support affordable housing, education, public safety and economic development. An eligible Promise Zone must have a minimum population of 10,000 and cannot exceed 200,000. The proposed Zone must have a minimum poverty rate of 33% and should exhibit high unemployment, high rates of residential vacancies and high rates of crime relative to the larger community.

Important Notice: This regulatory feature layer is the result of analysis performed by Tallahassee - Leon County GIS and approved by engineering staff at City of Tallahassee Growth Management and Leon County Environmental Management. Drainage areas have been analyzed to determine which watersheds are considered Regulated Closed Basins as defined in local land development regulations. For more information regarding water quality and development standards in regulated closed basins, please contact the permitting agency for this jurisdiction.This feature layer view displays a subset of Hydro-Corrected Watershed Boundaries for areas of Tallahassee and Leon County Florida that have been designated as regulated closed basins by the Leon County Board of County Commissioners and Tallahassee City Commission. This feature layer was generated from a 2018 digital elevation model of Leon County, Florida.Regulatory Designations: In cooperation with TLCGIS, this layer has been reviewed by Leon County engineering staff to determine which watersheds are considered Regulated Closed Basins as defined in Chapter 10 Leon County Code of Laws. Water Quality Treatment Standards - Closed Basin DefinitionAny closed basin which has been identified and mapped as a regulated closed basin by the Board of County Commissioners; orAny closed basin for which it can be shown by hydrologic analysis that cumulative increases in runoff volume from potential development patterns will cause a significant adverse impact on the frequency, duration, or extent of flooding.

This polygon feature layer displays the FSU Master Plan Campus Area which represents a campus development agreement coverage area between The Florida State University and The City Of Tallahassee, Approved 12/07/2022 The Campus Development Agreement is available from the City of Tallahassee's BoardDocs application: https://go.boarddocs.com/fla/talgov/Board.nsf/goto?open&id=CLDRJS6E4381All universities in Florida are required to prepare campus master plans and update those plans every five years. State law further requires that each university enter into a campus development agreement with the local host government for the implementation of the campus master plan. Upon approval of a campus development agreement, the university may proceed with the development outlined in the campus master plan. The campus development agreement addresses the impacts of the university on the host community and ensures the maintenance of adopted level-of-service standards. Notification Requirements: CITY shall notify the FSU Facilities Planning, Design & Construction Department of all comprehensive plan future land use and zoning map amendments as well as all Type A, B and C and site plan and development reviews adjacent to the boundaries of the FSU campus as defined in the adopted campus master plan. CITY will notify FSU by emailing the agenda items for Type A and DRC meetings as well as zoning and comprehensive plan amendments to fac-planning@fsu.edu. A copy of all such requests shall be provided by CITY to the Facilities Planning, Design & Construction Department in advance of any CITY review or approval of an item noticed.
