Concurrency of Public Facilities The subject property is located within the County's Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale development. Within the Urban Service Area, the comprehensive plan establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste, Stormwater Management, and Recreation. The adequate provision of theseservicesis necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. To ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained, the comprehensive plan requires that new development be reviewed for concurrency determination. For land use designation amendment requests, this review is undertaken as part of the conditional concurrency determination application process. As per the Concurrency Management Chapter of the County's Land Development Regulations, projects which do not increase land use density or intensity are exempt from concurrency requirements. For the subject request, about 70 acres with various land -use -designations will be redesignated to C-1, a designation allowing zero density. That represents an overall decrease in land use density and intensity. Thus, this land use amendment request is exempt from concurrency review. 151 SmeadSoft Reprint Date: Wednesday, December 14, 2016 - 11:56:35 - BCC:1625, Attachment Id 1, Page 153
