If that capacity is not available, <br />the project cannot be approved. The principal function of the concurrency management system then <br />is to provide a mechanism whereby demand and capacity measures can be compared on a project by <br />project basis. <br />Table 6.18 provides the criteria for establishing a demand to capacity comparison for a proposed <br />project. While most of the characteristics are self-explanatory, one needs clarification; this is the <br />geographic scope for the traffic public facility category. For concurrency purposes, affected <br />roadways are those roadways impacted by a project's traffic. Regardless of size, all projects impact <br />the roadway on which the project fronts. In addition, other roadways further removed from the <br />project are usually impacted. For concurrency purposes, two lane roadways which are assigned 8 or <br />more peak hour/peak season/peak direction project trips and four or more lane roadways that are <br />assigned 15 or more peak hour/peak season/peak direction project trips are considered impacted <br />roadways. <br />For transportation concurrency related facilities, level -of -service standards are applied to all impacted <br />roadways. Those level -of -service standards range from A to F and are associated with peak <br />hour/peak season/peak direction trips. <br />Community Development Department <br />Adopted November 2, 2010, Ordinance 2010-024 <br />Indian River County <br />
