OP 121991 <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the <br />application will be presented. The analysis will include a <br />description of: <br />c Concurrency of public facilities <br />Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan <br />Potential impact on environmental quality <br />Compatibility with the surrounding area <br />This section will also consider alternatives for development of the <br />site. <br />Concurrency of Public Facilities <br />This 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 />Wastewater, Solid Waste, Drainage and Recreation (Future Land Use <br />Policy 3.1). The adequate provision of these services is necessary <br />to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. <br />The comprehensive plan also requires that new development ba <br />reviewed to ensure that the minimum level of service standards for <br />these services and facilities are maintained. <br />26 <br />Policy 3.2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no <br />development shall be approved unless it is consistent with the <br />concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements <br />Element. For comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning requests, <br />conditional concurrency review is required. <br />As per Section 910.07 of the County's Land Development Regulations, <br />conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of <br />each facility with respect to ,a proposed project. Since <br />comprehensive plan amendments and rezoning requests are not <br />projects, county regulations call for the concurrency review.to be <br />based upon the most intense use of the subject property based upon <br />the requested zoning district or land use designation. For <br />hospital/commercial comprehensive plan amendment requests, the most <br />- <br />intense use (according to the county's LDR's) is retail commercial <br />,; <br />with .10'000 square feet of gross floor area per acre of land <br />proposed for redesignation. The site information used for the <br />concurrency analysis is as follows: <br />1. Size of Property. ±29 acres <br />2. Size of Area to be Rezoned: ±29 acres <br />Size of Area to be Redesignated: ±20 acres <br />3.,' Existing Zoning Classification: <br />a.. ±10 acres: RM -3, Multiple -Family Residential <br />District, (up to 3 units/acre) <br />b.. ±19 acres: RS -3, Single -Family Residential District, <br />(up to 3 units/acre) <br />4.* Existing Land Use Designation: - <br />r <br />a. ±20 acres: M-1, Medium Density Residential (up to 8 <br />units/acre) - <br />b. ;.±9 acres: Hospital/Commercial Node <br />-JW� _A a <br />5.
