- Utilities <br />The site is within the urban service area; and there are water <br />lines available to the site. Wastewater lines, however, are not <br />available at this time. Water service capacity is available at <br />this time; however, wastewater service capacity is not available. <br />Since no ERUs for water and wastewater have been reserved as yet, <br />the applicant must enter into a developer's agreement with the <br />county which states that the developer agrees to expand county <br />facilities or pay for their expansion to meet the needs of his <br />development. This agreement must be signed prior to final <br />consideration of this item by the Board of County Commissioners. <br />Also, as part of conditional concurrency approval, the developer <br />must pay 50 of the amount of utility impact fees associated with <br />maximum site development based upon the number of units or <br />intensity of development permitted by the approved zoning of the <br />property. With these conditions, the utility concurrency test <br />would be met for the subject request. <br />Solid waste service includes pickup by private operators and <br />disposal at the county landfill. The active segment of the <br />landfill has a 5 -year capacity, and the landfill has expansion <br />capacity beyond 2010. <br />- Drainage <br />All developments are reviewed for compliance with county stormwater <br />regulations which require on-site retention, preservation of <br />floodplain storage and minimum finished floor elevations. In <br />addition, any development proposal will have to meet the discharge <br />requirements of the county Stormwater Management Ordinance. Any <br />development review will be required to maintain a pre-existing <br />discharge rate for the design storm. Together, these regulations <br />limit the potential for on-site and off-site flooding and damage. <br />As with all development, a more detailed review will be cpnducted <br />during development approval. <br />- Recreation <br />Not applicable for commercial land use development. <br />ANALYSIS <br />In assessing this request, three major issues must be addressed. <br />These are the compatibility with the surrounding area, consistency <br />with the comprehensive plan and concurrency of public facilities. <br />Compatibility with surrounding land uses is an important issue with <br />respect to this property. The adjacent properties to the west, and <br />north are vacant properties and designated for residential <br />development. The property across Oslo Road, southwest of the <br />property, contains some single-family homes; however, it is zoned <br />for RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential, up to 6 units/acre and is <br />buffered by Oslo Road. Since commercial development undergoes site <br />plan review, specific buffering and compatibility would be <br />addressed at that time. <br />A review of this land use amendment and rezoning with the future <br />land use map and policies does reveal inconsistencies. <br />Specifically, this request is inconsistent with Future Land Use <br />Policy 1.23, which requires that no node should be considered for <br />expansion unless 70% of the land area (less rights-of-way) is <br />developed or approved for development, or otherwise warranted by <br />the proposed development. <br />Review of existing and/or approved development in the Oslo Road & <br />27th Avenue Commercial Node shows that Policy 1.23 is in direct <br />conflict with this land use amendment and rezoning request.
