Section 952.07. - Traffic impact study. <br />(1) Purpose. <br />(a) The purpose of a traffic impact study is to identify the potential impacts of new development on <br />the Indian River County transportation system and to provide information which will allow a <br />concurrency determination to be made on each impacted segment. The traffic impact study will <br />identify development traffic volumes on each impacted segment, identify those segments on <br />which the adopted level of service cannot be maintained, include segment and' intersection <br />analysis and identify potential solutions for those segments and intersections on which the <br />adopted level of service is not being met. <br />(2) Intent. <br />(a) The intent of this section is to define the requirements, procedures and methodology for the <br />submission of a traffic impact study in Indian River County and to provide an equitable, consistent <br />and systematic means of determining the future impact of proposed developments while <br />maintaining the adopted service levels on all roadways. <br />(b) Nothing contained in this section shall waive any requirement contained elsewhere in the Indian <br />River County Code. <br />(3) Definitions. <br />(a) The definitions used in this section are included in Chapter 901. <br />(4) Applicability. <br />(a) The requirements, procedures and methodology for a traffic impact study contained in this <br />section shall apply to all conceptual, initial and final development orders and concurrency <br />determination applications in unincorporated Indian River County. <br />(b) Any municipal jurisdiction within Indian River County opting to have development projects located <br />within its municipal boundaries reviewed under the Indian River County Concurrency <br />Management System for Transportation shall be required to follow the requirements, procedures, <br />and methodology for the submission of a traffic impact study contained in this section. <br />5) Types of traffic impact studies. <br />a) Small project (0-99 daily trips). <br />or projects generating less than one hun <br />y the director of public works or his desi <br />t will be the responsibility of the applicant or his engineer to determine and demonstrate <br />he director of public works that the small project will generate less than one hundred (1 <br />average daily trips. A letter documenting the appropriate trip generation rate(s) will suff <br />ndividual single-family residential development is excluded from this reauirementa <br />(b) Large project (100 daily trips orgreater)J <br />1. A traffic impact study shall be required for eye_ry project generating one hundred (100) or <br />greater average daily trips �— <br />c_) For developments of regional impact or Florida Quality Development projects, the analysis <br />,equired by Indian River County for the purposes of determining concurrency and level of service <br />ompliance may be, at the director of public work's option, the same as the transportation <br />methodology agreed on for preparing the application of development approval required by F.S. § <br />x380.06(10). Otherwise, the required transportation analysis will be the same as that identified for, <br />p traffic impact study.– <br />(6) <br />tudy. <br />(6) General requirements. <br />Page 5 <br />P168 <br />
