Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvements Element public schools, and transportation. Those are explained in detail in the applicable comprehensive plan elements. For each facility, level -of -service is a measure of the relationship between demand for the service and the capacity of the facility. Capacity, however, is measured differently for each type of facility. Table 6.16 identifies both the capacity and demand measures for each public facility. Those measures are addressed in detail, and existing capacities are identified in the applicable Comprehensive Plan Elements.

If that capacity is not available, the project cannot be approved. The principal function of the concurrency management system then is to provide a mechanism whereby demand and capacity measures can be compared on a project by project basis. Table 6.16 provides the criteria for establishing a demand to capacity comparison for a proposed project. While most of the characteristics are self-explanatory, one needs clarification; that is the geographic scope for the traffic public facility category. For concurrency purposes, affected roadways are those roadways impacted by a project's traffic. Regardless of size, all projects impact the roadway on which the project fronts. In addition, other roadways further removed from the project may be impacted. For concurrency purposes, two lane roadways which are assigned 8 or more peak hour/peak season/peak direction project trips and four or more lane roadways that are assigned 15 or more peak hour/peak season/peak direction project trips are considered impacted roadways.
