Use solar hot water heating energy systems. systems or photovoltaic Recommendation In order to partially mitigate the adverse impact of increasing the Region's dependence on imported energy _ sources, the following conditions should be incorporated into the Development Order: 1• In the final site and building design plans, the developer shall: 1) incorporate those energy conserva- tion measures identified on page 25-4 of the Harbor Town Center Development of Regional Impact Application for Development Approval; 2) comply with the Florida Thermal Efficiency Code Part VII, Chapter 553, Florida Statutes; and 3) to the maximum extent feasible, incorporate measures identified -in the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council's Reaionai ;ne;:oy Plan May, 1979, and the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council's Regional Comprehensive Policy Plan. As a minimum, the developer shall demonstrate that incorporation of energy conservation measures already themlrtted to and osmeasures 0 incorporated equirem nt of Condition 2below has projected projected energy demand by 20 percent below that demand which would have occurred without incorporation dd the measures. 2• The developer shall incorporate each of the 17 energy saving methods outlined in the ENERGY section discus- sion of the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council's Assessment Report for the Harbor Town Center Development of Regional Impact unless it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council that individually each method is not cost effective. 38
