JAN r BOOK 88 PnUE404 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 also requires 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 steres 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. As per section 910.07 of the County's Land Development Regulations, 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. For commercial rezoning requests, the most intense use (according to the county's LDR's) is retail commercial with 10,000 square feet of gross floor area per acre of land proposed for rezoning. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Property: ±0.85 acres 2. Size of Area to be Rezoned: ±0.85 acres 3. Existing Zoning Classification: IL, Light Industrial 4. Existing Land Use Designation: C/ I, Commercial/ Industrial 5. Proposed Zoning Classification: CG, General Commercial 6. Most Intense Use under Proposed Zoning Classification: ±81500 sq. ft. of Retail Commercial (Shopping Center in the 5th Edition ITE Manual). As per section 910.07(2) of the Concurrency Management Chapter of the County's Land Development Regulations, projects which do not increase density or intensity of use are exempt from concurrency requirements. This rezoning request is exempt from concurrency review because the requested zoning would not increase the use intensity of the site. By changing the zoning of the subject property from IL to CG, various uses not currently allowed will be permitted on the site. However, because the most intense use of the property would be the same with either zoning district, changing the property's zoning from IL to CG will not create additional impacts on any concurrency facilities. When new development is proposed detailed concurrency analysis development approval process. l 22 for the subject property, a more will be conducted -:during the r
