Future Land Use Pattern The subject property and all adjacent properties are designated M- 2, Medium -Density Residential -2, on the future land use map. The M-2 designation allows residential uses with densities up to 10 units/acre. Environment According to County Flood Insurance Rate Maps, the subject property is located in a Zone X; this indicates that the property is outside of the 100 -year floodplain. As a site that has been cleared, the subject property is not environmentally significant. Utilities and Services The site is within the Urban Service Wastewater lines extend to the site from Treatment Plant. Centralized potable available to the site. Transportation System Area of the County. the Gifford Wastewater water service is not The 5 acre parcel containing the subject property has access to 45th Street which is classified as a collector roadway on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map. This segment of 45th Street, a two-lane paved road with approximately 80 feet of existing public road right-of-way, is not presently programmed for expansion. ANALYSIS In. this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the application will be presented. The analysis will include a description of: • concurrency of public facilities; • compatibility with the surrounding area; • consistency with the comprehensive plan; and • potential impact on environmental quality. Concurrency of Public Facilities This site is located within the County Urban Service Area, an area deemed suited for urban scale development. The comprehensive plan establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water, Wastewater, Solid Waste, Drainage, and Recreation (Future Land Use Policy 3.1). The adequate provision of these services is necessary to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by the community. The comprehensive plan also requires that new development be reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained. For rezoning requests, this review is undertaken as part of the conditional concurrency determination application process. As per section 910.07 of the County's Land Development Regulations (LDR), conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of each facility with respect to a proposed project. Since rezoning requests are not projects, County regulations call for the concurrency review to be based upon the most intense use of the subject property based upon the requested zoning district. For residential rezoning requests, the most intense use (according to the County's LDR's) is the maximum number of units that could be built on the site, given the size of the property and the maximum density under the proposed zoning district. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 79 E�cCK 9 S PAGE. 65 JULY 23, 1996
