Comment from the Treasure Coast <br />Regional Planning Council are also enclosed for your <br />consideration. <br />It is requested that once the amendments are adopted, copies <br />be provided to the Department as required by s.163.3187(2), F.S. <br />If we can be of further assistance, please contact Mme. Ralph <br />Hook at (904) 487-4545. <br />Sincerely, <br />Robert F. Kessler, Chief <br />Bureau of Local Resource <br />Planning <br />COMMENTS ON.LAND USE AMENDMENTS <br />TO THE INDIAN RIVER COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br />1. The request to redesignate 50 acres from agriculture (up to <br />.2 dwelling units/acre) to medium -density residential (up to <br />8 dwelling units/acre) proposed in LPA059 appears to be an <br />excessive density increase for an*area not served by potable <br />water and sewer facilities. Consideration should also be <br />given to limiting density under the flight path for the <br />approaches associated with the aerodrome airfield. <br />2. Although most staff analyses discussed traffic impacts <br />associated with request for density increases, there was no <br />discussion of the cumulative effects where more than one <br />amendment could effect the same roadway i.e., LPA058 and <br />LPA059. <br />4 <br />
