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 also requires that new development be reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained. For rezoning requests, this review is undertaken as part of the conditional concurrency determination application process. As per section 910.07 of the County's Land Development Regulations (LDR), 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 residential rezoning requests, the most intense use (according to the County's LDR's).is the maximum number of units that could be built on the site, given the size of the property and the maximum density under the proposed zoning district. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: #24 acres 2. Existing Zoning Classification: RMH-8, Mobile home Residential District (up to 8 units/acre) 3. Maximum Number of Units with Existing Zoning: 192 4. Proposed Zoning Classification: RS -6, Single-family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) 5. Maximum Number of Units with Proposed Zoning: 144 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 total number of potential.units that the site could accommodate. It is important to note that there will be no effect on service levels for any public facility as a result of the rezoning. In this case, a detailed concurrency analysis will be done in conjunction with site development. That concurrency analysis will address facility service levels and demand.
