DEC BOOK 88 2,42 Utilities and Services The subje t c property is within the Urban Service Area of the county. As such, the site has access to the services needed to accommodate urban development. For potable water, the site is currently serviced by the South County Water Plant; however, when the North County Water Plant is completed, potable water service will be provided by that facility. Wastewater service is available to the site from the Central County Wastewater Plant (Gifford). Transvortation System The property abuts 49th Street to the north and 47th Street to the south. Forty-ninth Street is classified as a collector road on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map. This segment of 49th Street is a 2 -lane paved road with approximately 35 feet of existing public road right of way. It is programmed for expansion to 60 feet of public road right of way by 2010. Forty-seventh Street is a 2 -lane paved road with approximately 70 feet of existing public road right of way. ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the application will be presented. The analysis will include a description of: • concurrency of public facilities; • compatibility with the surrounding area; • consistency with the comprehensive plan; and • potential impact on environmental quality. Concurrency of Public Facilities This site is located within the county Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale development. The Comprehensive Plan establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste, Drainage and Recreation (Future Land Use Policy 3.1). The adequate provision of these services is necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. The Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations also require that new development be reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained. Policy 3.2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no development shall be approved unless it is consistent with the concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements Element. For rezoning requests, conditional concurrency review is required. Conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of each facility with respect to a proposed project. Since rezoning requests are not projects, county regulations call for the concurrency review to be based upon the most intense use of the subject property based upon the requested zoning district. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Property: ±15.41 acres 2• Size of Area to be Rezoned: ±15.41 acres 34 �_ J M
