Those projects include certain road projects that will treat run-off from older improvements that currently provide no treatment. The projects listed in the Transportation section are proposed to be funded in part through the one -cent local option sales tax. Notes are included in the CIP sections indicating specific projects with additional Indian River Lagoon benefits. • Existing Conditions and Analysis Sections In addition to the changes made to Appendix A, all of the data in the existing conditions and analysis sections of the CIE have been updated to reflect current conditions. Those data include past revenue and expenditure figures for county operations as well as forecasted revenue and expenditure figures. • Concurrency Management Section Indian River County maintains a record of building permits issued to owners of parcels/lots. Those records are maintained as part of the County's concurrency management system. As permits are issued, county staff enters development impact information on those lots into the concurrency management system and subtracts the public facility capacity utilized from available capacities within the concurrency management system. Data from that system were used to assess the need for capital projects and inclusion in the proposed CIE update.

As courses of action committed to by the county, policies provide the basis for all county land development decisions. While all comprehensive plan policies are important, some have more applicability than others in reviewing plan amendment requests. Of particular applicability for this amendment request is the following policy: • Future Land Use Element Policy 14.3 148
