In this case, the minimum floor elevation level of service standard does not apply, since the property does not lie within a floodplain. Both the on-site retention and discharge standards do apply. The stormwater management level of service standard will be met by limiting off-site discharge to the IRFWCD's maximum discharge rate of two inches in twenty-four hours, and maintaining on-site retention of the stormwater runoff for the most intense use of the property. As with all development, a more detailed review will be conducted during the development approval process. Recreation A review of county recreation facilities and the projected demand that would result from the most intense development that could occur on the property under the proposed zoning district indicates that the adopted levels of service would be maintained. Concurrency Summary Based upon the analysis conducted, staff has determined that all concurrency -mandated facilities, including transportation, stormwater management, solid waste, recreation, water, and wastewater, have adequate capacity at this time to accommodate the most theoretically intense use of the subject property under the proposed rezoning. As with all development, a more detailed concurrency review will be conducted during the development approval process. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with all applicable policies of the comprehensive plan. Rezoning requests must also be consistent with the overall designation of land uses as depicted on the Future Land Use Map. In this case,. the subject property is designated M-1, Medium -Density Residential -l; on the Future Land Use Map. Since RM -8 zoning is allowed in the M-1 district, the proposed zoning is consistent with the Future Land Use Map. Other than the Future Land Use Map, the goals, objectives, and policies are the most important parts of the comprehensive plan. Policies are statements in the plan that identify the actions which the county will take in order to direct the community's development. 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 rezoning requests. Of particular applicability for this request are the following objectives and policies: Future Land Use Element Obiective 1 Future Land Use Element Objective 1 states that the county will have a compact land use pattern which reduces urban sprawl. By allowing the site to be developed in a manner that is consistent with the site's land use designation, the request allows a more compact land use pattern within the 24
