Note: The proposed rezoning/PD conceptual plan provides for an appropriate variety of <br /> residential buildings and housing choices within the project that will be conveniently <br /> integrated with an adjacent retail use. <br /> Land Use Policy 5.5: Indian River County LDRs shall contain a special Planned Development(PD) <br /> zoning district. That district shall be designated as an overlay on the County Zoning Atlas. The PD <br /> zoning district is intended to provide for the development of projects which require flexibility in <br /> order to maximize open space and conserve natural features,provide alternative designs,incorporate <br /> recreational facilities, and incorporate a mix of uses. <br /> Note: The proposed PDMXD zoning implements this policy by proposing a mixture of uses <br /> within an MXD design that provides an alternative to a conventional single use <br /> project. <br /> Land Use Policy 9.3: Indian River County shall maintain plans along roads that serve as <br /> entranceways to the county and along other roads, as determined by the county. The county shall <br /> continue to implement the recommendations of the Other Corridor Plan and the SR 60 Corridor Plan. <br /> Note: The entire development, including residential portions of the project as well as the <br /> commercial component,will be subject to architectural design guidelines consistent <br /> with the Corridor Plan criteria. <br /> Policy 5.7: PDs shall be permitted throughout the county,without amendment of the future land use <br /> map, provided the proposed development is shown to be consistent with the goals, objectives and <br /> policies of the Comprehensive Plan. PDs shall be consistent with the maximum density permitted by <br /> the future land use map unless density bonuses are permitted consistent with Future Land Use <br /> Element Policy 5.8. <br /> Note: The proposed PD is consistent with the maximum density for M-2 designated <br /> property and is consistent with mixed use policies. <br /> Compatibility with Surrounding Areas <br /> The PD conceptual plan design locates the commercial use on the west side of the site,near a major <br /> intersection and adjacent to an existing Commercial/Industrial Node. The project's residential <br /> component is located on the east side of the site adjacent to existing residential on the north, east, <br /> and south sides of the site. In addition to the general project layout, specific landscape,buffering, <br /> and architectural improvements are provided to address compatibility. <br /> Concurrency Impacts <br /> Consistent with county requirements,the applicant conducted a conditional concurrency review to <br /> evaluate potential project impacts on various facilities,including roads,water and sewer service,and <br /> other systems. In this case,the conditional concurrency review indicated that there will be adequate <br /> facilities in place to accommodate project impacts,subject to the conditions contained in this report's <br /> recommendation. Further concurrency determinations will be required at the time of preliminary PD <br /> plan approval for each phase. <br /> F:\Community Deve1opment\CurDev\BCC\2014 BCC\FamilyDollarGifford(PD-14-03-02).doc 5 94 <br />
