"As per Section 910.07 of the County's Land Development Regulations, :conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity.of .;.each facility -with respect to a proposed project. Since comprehensive plan- amendments and non -PD (Planned Development) *rezoning requests are not projects, county regulations call for the concurrency review to be based upon the most intensive use of the subject property based upon the requested zoning district or land use designation. For commercial comprehensive plan amendment .requests, the most intensive use (according to the county's LDR's) is retail commercial with 10,000 square feet of gross floor area per acre of land proposed for redesignation. Since the subject comprehensive plan amendment request is -for a commercial land use designation, the 10,000 square feet of floor area per acre of land proposed for redesignation with a retail commercial usage is used as the basis for the concurrency determination of the proposed request. -Transportation A review of the traffic impacts that would result from the proposed development of the property indicates that the existing level of service "D" or better would not be lowered. The maximum buildout permitted by the existing zoning is 48 units; that amount of development would generate approximately 293 average daily trips. A retail commercial use of 80,000 square feet on the subject site would generate approximately 7,577 daily trips, based on the Institute of Transportation* Engineers (ITE) trip generation rates. Of these trips, only 49% or 3,716 TEPD (Trip Ends Per Day), will be new trips. The actual number of trips would depend on the total square footage and the exact mix of uses. The traffic capacity for this segment of U.S. #1 is 2,370 trips (peak hour/peak season/peak direction) at a Level of Service "D". The existing traffic volume on this segment of U.S. #1 is 975 trips (peak hour/peak season/peak direction): The additional 3,716 Trip Ends Per Day created by the proposed comprehensive plan amendment will increase the total peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips for this segment of U.S. #1 by approximately 305 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips. Roseland Road has a capacity at a level of service "C" of approximately 700 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips in the vicinity of, the project. This segment of Roseland Road has an existing traffic volume of 380 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips. The proposed development will result in an increase of approximately 84 new peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips on Roseland Road. Based on staff analysis, it was determined that U.S. #1 and. Roseland Road can accommodate the additional trips without decreasing their existing levels of service. A more detailed review of transportation impacts will *be required as part of any future site development application review. - Water A retail commercial use of 80,000 square feet on the subject property will have a water consumption rate of 16.5 Equivalent Residential Units (ERUs), or 4,125 gallons per day. County water is not currently available for the site; however, the existing Riverwalk Shopping Center utilizes an on-site water treatment plant which has a design capacity of 60,000 gallons per day and a remaining capacity of over 30,000 gallons per day to serve the subject property. Prior to final consideration by the Board of County Commissioners, the applicant must enter into a developer's :.agreement which states that the applicant agrees to connect to the county water system when the service becomes available. With the execution of the developer's agreement,, the potable water concurrency test will be satisfied for the subject request. `Wastewater ,Wastewater service is available to the subject property from the North County Wastewater Plant. Based upon the site development %parameters referenced above, wastewater generation for the site ,.after development consistent with the proposed amendment will be ;approximately 16.5 Equivalent Residential Units (ERUs),. or 4,125 gallons per day. The North County Plant currently has .a remaining capacity of approximately 1.9 million gallons per day and can accommodate the additional wastewater generated by the proposed .amendment. The applicant has paid the necessary impact fees for wastewater service for the subject property and will connect to the North County Plant at the time of development. This is consistent with Future Land Use Policy 2.7 which requires development projects to maintain established levels of service. 21
