Future Land Use Pattern <br />The subject property and all surrounding property south of 49th <br />Street has an M-2, Medium -Density land use designation. This <br />designation permits a variety of residential zoning categories at <br />densities up to 10 units/acre. Property north of 49th Street is <br />designated on the Future Land Use Map as L-2, Low -Density <br />Residential -2, permitting up to 6 units/acre. The industrially <br />zoned property east of Cavalier Estates (southeast of subject <br />property) is located within the Gifford Commercial/ Industrial node <br />area. <br />Environment <br />The property is not designated as environmentally sensitive or <br />environmentally important by the comprehensive plan, nor is it <br />within a floodplain as identified by the Flood Insurance Rating <br />Maps (FIRM). <br />Utilities and Services <br />The site is within the urban service <br />water lines are in place along 49th <br />available; a lift station is located <br />corner of the subject property. <br />Transportation System <br />area of the county.

The analysis will include a <br />description of the potential impacts on surrounding areas, <br />potential impacts on the transportation and utility systems, and <br />any significant adverse impacts on environmental quality. <br />Compatibility with Existing Services and Facilities <br />The site is located within the county Urban Service Area (USA), an <br />area deemed suited for urban scale development. The comprehensive <br />plan establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water, <br />Waste Water, Solid Waste, Drainage and Recreation. The adequate <br />provisions of these services is necessary to ensure the continued <br />quality of life enjoyed by the community. The Comprehensive Plan <br />also requires that new development be reviewed to ensure that the <br />minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are <br />maintained. <br />- Transportation <br />A review of traffic impacts resulting from the development of the <br />property indicates that the existing traffic volumes on roadways <br />serving the site will increase slightly. The maximum buildout <br />permitted by the existing zoning is 226 multiple -family units; that <br />amount of development would generate approximately 1,377 average <br />daily trips. With the proposed zoning, the maximum buildout would <br />be 169 single-family units. The average.daily trips would increase <br />to 1,693 trips. A standard two-lane road can accommodate <br />approximately 13,000 trips per day. Based upon a staff analysis, <br />it was determined that Lindsey Road and other roadways serving the <br />project can accommodate the additional trips without decreasing <br />their existing levels of service.
