significantly increase capacity for both segments; however, those projects are not anticipated to be undertaken for some time beyond the allowed 3 year "funded for construction" window for counting future roadway capacity for concurrency purposes. In the case of CR 510, FDOT is undertaking a massive $80+ million widening project from CR 512 to US 1 and that project, due to its scale and cost, will take several years to complete and may be constructed in phases. In the case of 37th Street, an alternative capacity producing project involving the extension of Aviation Blvd to 37th Street and to 41St Street is being pursued as a better alternative to 4-laning 37th Street. The Aviation Blvd. extension project will require right-of-way acquisition and will take several years to complete. Since those two roadway projects will be undertaken beyond the 3 year window, an interim measure level of service of D + 20% is proposed for those roadway segments, with a reverter clause for those segments to be re -adjusted to LOS D after the planned roadway improvement projects are complete. For CR 510, this means adjusting the LOS from 880 peak hour, peak season, peak direction trips to 945 peak hour, peak season, peak direction trips between 66th Avenue and 58th Avenue and to 1109 peak hour, peak season, peak direction trips between 58th Avenue and U.S. Highway 1. For 37th Street this means adjusting the LOS from 880 peak hour, peak season, peak direction trips to 992 peak hour, peak season, peak direction trips between U.S. Highway 1 and Indian River Boulevard. At completion of the planned improvements for both roadway segments, available capacity will exceed conditions under the interim D +20% thresholds. As proposed, the revision to Policy 3.5 will allow the County to continue to approve development proposals that would impact either or both of the roadways, recognizing that any added trips to those roadways from such development completed in the future would soon be addressed by the planned roadway projects. Policy 1.12 For Policy 1.12 of the CIE, a minor typographical error for a referenced year will be corrected. No substantive change is proposed for this policy. Text Edits With respect to concurrency related text edits, those proposed edits will exempt individual single family permits from concurrency review. Current County regulations exempt building permits for single-family homes on lots within subdivisions that existed prior to adoption of the Comprehensive Plan in 1990. The proposed amendment will treat all single family permits equally. Under the amendment, traffic impacts from individual homes will be tracked in the aggregate and anticipated trips from single-family permits will be included in development project traffic studies to ensure proper evaluation of impacts. Aggregate impacts will also be evaluated by staff each year in its evaluation and review of the CIE and the 5 year capital improvement program schedule. The proposed text revisions will simplify the building permit process for individual single family permits, making the process consistent for all single family permits regardless of location, while at the same time tracking and accounting for anticipated impacts. In the future, these text changes will need to be reflected in an update to the LDR Chapter 910 concurrency regulations. 498
