Manatee County, FL - North River High School district zoning change


Manatee County, FL - North River High School district zoning change
The Issue
Adjust school zone boundaries for new North River High School to only include communities North of the Manatee River and East of I-75. New communities East of I75 in the North River area are helping to fund the new high school with impact fees and tax revenue but we new home owners find it ridiculous you will be shipping our children across the county to Palmetto High when it is only a 5 minute drive for many of us to North River. Now we new homeowners will be plagued with decreased home values as well when it's common sense to include those communities East of I75. It puts many of our children in a dangerous situations as well being new drivers expected to drive 30 mins in rush hour traffic in Manatee Counties poorly planned infrastructure. Why is it we have to suffer from more traffic in the area and cannot even have our children enjoy the amenities we help fund every year.
