*General Effect of the Request <br />The request decreases the project's residential unit development <br />potential and updates project completion dates. Also, the request <br />modifies the overall project's "Master Development Plan" in that <br />the Sabal Trace property will not be interconnected with either the <br />existing Countryside South mobile home park development to the <br />north or with the undeveloped, vacant portion of the overall <br />project to the south and east. Thus, Sabal Trace will separate the <br />existing overall project mobile home development from the vacant <br />portions of the overall project (see attachment #6). <br />*Zoning Requirements <br />Currently the Sabal Trace site (phases 1 & 2) is zoned RMH-8. To <br />accommodate the applicant's plans for single-family subdivision <br />development, the property needs to be rezoned to RS -6. At this <br />time, the applicant has applied only to rezone phase 1 of the <br />project site. To ensure that each phase of the project is properly <br />zoned prior to approval and development, the D.O. must include a <br />condition requiring the rezoning of each project phase prior to <br />subdivision preliminary plat approval for each phase. <br />*Buffer Requirements <br />As described in staff's report to the Planning and Zoning <br />Commission on the Sable Trace rezoning request, a landscape buffer <br />between mobile home development and lower density residential <br />development is required by the county's LDRs (40' wide Type "B" <br />buffer). In regards to the Sabal Trace project proposal, such a <br />buffer must be provided by the applicant between the Sabal Trace <br />development and the existing mobile home development immediately <br />north and west of the Sabal Trace site. To ensure that the buffer <br />will be provided by the applicant, the D.O. must include a <br />condition requiring the buffer. <br />*Traffic Impacts <br />The request updates the estimated project build -out date from 1984 <br />to 2005. In conjunction with the request to extend the project <br />build -out date, a traffic analysis update was performed which <br />demonstrates that the .major roadways 'impacted by the overall <br />project, taking into account the applicant's requested changes, <br />would operate.. at acceptable levels of service through the project's <br />new build -out date of 2005. Staff of TCRPC; DCA, and the county <br />have accepted this analysis. As with other DRI D.O.s, staff <br />recommends that the Village Green/Countryside D.O. include a <br />condition that no building permits will be issued for the project <br />beyond the traffic.. analysis date .(2005) unless and until the <br />traffic_analysis-Is-apdated. <br />County staff have specifically required the applicant to address <br />two "local" traffic issues which do not fall under the purview of <br />DCA or TCRPC. These issues are: <br />A. The need for a left turn lane and a right turn deceleration <br />lane for the project's 82nd Avenue entrance. <br />B. The need for a roadway connection to 12th Street (occurring in <br />phase two of the Sabal Trace project). <br />Based upon traffic analysis provided by the applicant and by <br />applying LDR Chapter 952.12(10)(h) turn lane requirements, Public <br />Works staff recommends that the D.O. include a condition requiring <br />17 <br />BOOK <br />JAN 4 1994. <br />
