F, <br />ab I .� ,1990 <br />900K I� F',1.E j <br />achieve significant open space. Their concern with that is the <br />amount of R/W being taken. Regarding methodology for determining <br />LOS standards, they believe the DOT's methodology promotes more <br />opportunities for mitigating traffic impacts, and regarding the <br />Thoroughfare Plan, they would like to have closer intercounty <br />coordination, especially on the N/S continuous flow of traffic. <br />They also feel more attention needs to be given the airport <br />facility in Vero Beach rather than supporting the regional <br />facility in Fort Pierce. They have a problem about rail <br />facilities into the west of the county and feel there should be <br />more recognition of the importance of rail facilities for future <br />industrial development. <br />In the Housing Element, they request that affordable housing <br />be recognized as a critical component of future industrial <br />development as well as farmworker housing. Mr. Risinger noted <br />that he has already addressed the 25% upland retention rule, and <br />emphasized that as relates to the 10 mile ridge and future <br />industrial development, they do not want development along that <br />corridor precluded forever and would I;ike to see that addressed <br />somehow in the Plan. They liked the economic goals, but felt <br />there was not enough substantive action included. They feel <br />there is a need for more intergovernmental coordination and have <br />suggested the hiring of a development coordinator in the county <br />to help the public understand the myriad rules and regulations. <br />Under Capital Improvements, they have suggested a policy <br />statement which recognized the potential contribution that can be <br />made in special taxing districts for future infrastructure. With <br />concurrency, with the Urban Service Area, the lack of state and <br />federal funds, the public/private partnership to create infra- <br />structure is going to be a critical part of any future <br />development, whether it be industrial or residential. They <br />understand there are no community development districts in place, <br />and they would like to see that section expanded upon. <br />76 <br />
