ANALYSIS <br />In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the rezoning request will be presented. <br />Specifically, this section will include an analysis of the request's: <br />• Impact on public facilities; <br />• Consistency with the county's comprehensive plan; <br />• Compatibility with the surrounding area; and <br />• Potential impact on environmental quality. <br />Impact on Public Facilities <br />The subject site is located within the Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale <br />development. Within the Urban Service Area, the comprehensive plan establishes standards for: <br />Transportation, Potable Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste, Stormwater Management, and <br />Recreation (Future Land Use Element Policy 3.1). Adequate provision of those services is <br />necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. To ensure that the <br />minimum acceptable standards for those services and facilities are maintained, the comprehensive <br />plan requires that new development be reviewed for a concurrency determination. For rezoning <br />requests, that review is undertaken as part of the conditional concurrency determination application <br />process. <br />As per section 910.07 of the County's LDRs, conditional concurrency review examines the <br />available capacity of each facility with respect to a proposed project. Since rezoning requests are <br />not projects, County regulations call for the concurrency review to be based upon the most intense <br />use of the subject property allowed within the requested rezoning district. <br />For RM -8 rezoning requests, the most intense use of a property (according to the County's LDR's) <br />is the maximum number of units that could be built on the site, based on the size of the property <br />and maximum density under the proposed rezoning. The site information used for the concurrency <br />analysis associated with this rezoning is as follows: <br />1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: f 19.32 acres <br />2. Existing Zoning District: RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 6 <br />units/acre) <br />3. Proposed Zoning District: <br />4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property <br />Under Existing Zoning District: <br />5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property <br />Under Proposed Zoning District: <br />RM -8, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 8 <br />units/acre) <br />115 Multiple -Family Units <br />154 Multiple -Family Units <br />22 <br />
