r <br />MAY ® 5 N92 <br />BOOK '�' �'P���E►���: <br />the expansion if capacity is not available at the time of site <br />development. With these conditions, the utility concurrency test <br />will be met for the subject request. <br />-Solid Waste <br />Solid waste service includes pickup by private operators and <br />disposal at the county landfill. Stolid waste generation by 40 <br />dwelling units on the subject site will be approximately 64 waste <br />generation units or 193 cubic yards of solid waste per year. This <br />is based upon the level of service standard of 2.37 cubic yards per <br />capita per year. A review of the solid waste -capacity for the <br />active segment for the county landfill indicates the availability <br />of more than 900,000 cubic yards. The active segment of the <br />landfill has a 4 year capacity, and the landfill has expansion <br />capacity beyond 2010. Based upon staff analysis, it was determined <br />that the county landfill can accommodate the additional solid <br />waste. <br />-Drainage <br />All developments are reviewed for compliance with county stormwater <br />regulations which require on-site retention and minimum finished <br />floor elevations. As stated in Drainage Policy 1.1, the drainage <br />level of service standard is that post development run-off shall <br />not exceed the maximum discharge rate of the applicable drainage <br />basin if a rate has been set for the basin. If no discharge rate <br />has been set for the basin, post development run-off shall +not <br />exceed pre -development runoff. In either case, all new <br />construction and improvements shall mitigate the impacts of a 25 <br />year/24 hour storm event. <br />The subject property is located within the M-1 Drainage Basin and <br />in the Indian River Farms Water Control District. No discharge <br />rate has been set for the M-1 drainage basin; however, there is a <br />standard drainage discharge rate of two inches in 24 hours in the <br />Indian River Farms Water Control District. <br />With the most intense use of this site, the maximum area of <br />impervious surface for the proposed request will be approximately <br />250,000 square feet. The maximum increase in run-off volume above <br />the predevelopment runoff rate, based upon the amount of impervious <br />surface, will be 82,000 cubic feet. In order to maintain the <br />county's adopted level of service, the applicant will be required <br />to retain 960,000 cubic feet of new and existing run-off on-site. <br />In this case, minimum finished floor elevation level of service <br />standards are applicable, since the property is within floodplain <br />AE. According to Drainage Policy 1.2, the minimum finished floor <br />elevation level of service standard is that all new buildings will <br />have the lowest habitable floor elevation not lower than the <br />elevation of the 100 -year flood elevation as shown on the Federal <br />Emergency Management Agency Flood Insurance Rating Maps (FIRM), or <br />as defined in a more detailed study report. The minimum finished <br />floor elevation for floodplain AE for this site is 22 feet as shown <br />on the Federal Emergency Management Agency FIRM. In order to <br />maintain the county's adopted level of service for minimum finished <br />floor elevations, the applicant will be required to construct all <br />buildings at or above an elevation of at least 22 feet above mean <br />sea level. <br />Based upon staff's analysis, the drainage level of service <br />standards will be met by limiting off-site discharge to its pre - <br />development rate of 11 cubic feet per second, requiring retention <br />Of 960,000 cubic feet of run-off for the most intensive use of the <br />Property, and maintaining a minimum finished floor elevation of 22 <br />feet. <br />72 <br />
