JUN J 5 1993 BOOK 89 N�'F j91 U. E., 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 land development regulations) 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: ±0.68 -acres 2. Size of Area to be Rezoned: 3. Existing Zoning Classification: 4. Existing Land Use Designation: ±0.68 acres CG, General Commercial C/ 1 0, Commercial/ Industrial 5. Proposed Zoning Classification: OCRj, Office,, Commercial,, Residential 6. Most Intense Use under Proposed.Zoning Classification: ±6#800 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 CG to OCRg residential 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 CG to OCR will not create additional impacts on any concurrency facilities. When new development is proposed detailed concurrency analysis development approval process. for the subject property, a more will be conducted during the Compatibility with the Surrounding Area It is staff's position that the proposed rezoning will not create any compatibility problems with the surrounding areas. Located near railroad tracks and with access to two major roads,, the subject property is appropriate for commercial zoning. While decreasing the intensity, this request will maintain a commercial zoning on the subject property. However, the OCR zoning district will also allow the continuation of the residential uses traditionally associated with the subject property. The principal impacts of development of the subject property will be on the residential area to the east, across U.S. #1. However, since the requested OCR zoning district allows residential development and other uses which are less intense than the uses allowed in the CG zoning district,, the zoning change will not increase impacts on adjacent areas. 22
