Abstract

This research was done under an internship program for Deerfield Beach, Florida. Costs of providing municipal services to land outside the city were projected as were revenues expected to accrue to the city. Projections were made both for the current level of development, and for that time when the land was developed at its ultimate holding capacity. Projections for the near future clearly showed that revenues would exceed costs for land which is currently developed. Costs would exceed revenues if services were extended to undeveloped lands. Projections based on the ultimate holding capacity were less certain. For most of the land area, property tax revenues would yield revenues equal to about half of expected expenditures. Uncertainties prevented estimation of total revenues for the long run. The focus of this thesis was on direct, tangible costs and revenues. Intangible aspects were stated, but not evaluated.
