<br />- Recreation
<br />A review of county recreation facilities and the projected demand
<br />that would result from the most intense development that could
<br />occur on the property under the proposed land use designation
<br />indicates that the adopted levels of service would be maintained.
<br />While the Urban, Beachl and River Park Districts serve the entire
<br />county,, the Community Park District is divided into north and south
<br />areas. of the subject property's 3200 acres, 480 acres lie in the
<br />North Community Park Districts, and 2720 acres lie in the South
<br />Community Park District. The table below illustrates the
<br />additional park demand associated with the proposed development of
<br />the property and the existing surplus acreage by park -type.
<br />Based upon the analysis conducted, staff has determined that all
<br />cohcurrency-mandated facilities,, including drainage,, roads,, solid
<br />waste, recreation, water, and wastewater have adequate capacity to
<br />accommodate the most intense use of the subject property under the
<br />proposed land use designation. Therefore,, the concurrency test has
<br />been satisfied for the subject request.
<br />Consistency with Comprehensive Plan
<br />Land use amendment requests are reviewed for consistency with all
<br />policies of the comprehensive plan. As per section 800.07(l) of
<br />the land development regulations, the "comprehensive plan may only
<br />be amended in such a way as to preserve the internal consistency of
<br />the plan pursuant to Section 163.3177(2)F.S." Amendments must also
<br />show consistency with the overall designation of land uses as
<br />depicted on the Future Land Use Map, which includes agricultural,
<br />residential, recreational, conservation, and commercial and
<br />industrial land uses and their densities.
<br />The goals, objectives and policies are the most important parts of
<br />the comprehensive plan. Policies are statements in the plan which
<br />identify actions which the county will take in order to direct the
<br />community's development. As courses of action committed to by the
<br />county, policies provide the basis for all county land development
<br />related decisions --including plan amendment decisions. While all
<br />comprehensive plan objectives and policies are important# some have
<br />more applicability than others in reviewing plan amendment
<br />requests. Of particular applicability for this request are the
<br />following objectives and policies.
<br />- Future Land Use Element Policy 13.3
<br />In evaluating a land use amendment request,, the most important
<br />consideration is Future Land Use Element Policy 13.3. This policy
<br />requires that one of three criteria be met in order to approve a
<br />land use amendment request. These criteria are:
