activities, such as commercial service uses, heavy repair <br />services nor industrial uses. <br />ANALYSIS <br />In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the <br />application will be presented. The analysis will include a <br />description of: <br />• concurrency of public facilities; <br />• compatibility with the surrounding area; <br />• consistency with the comprehensive plan; and <br />• potential impact on environmental quality. <br />Concurrency of Public Facilities <br />This site is located within the county Urban Service Area, an area <br />deemed suited for urban scale development. The comprehensive plan <br />establishes standards for: Transportation, Potable Water, <br />Wastewater, Solid Waste, Drainage and Recreation (Future Land Use <br />Policy 3.1). The adequate provision of these services is necessary <br />to ensure the continued quality of life enjoyed by -the community. <br />The comprehensive plan also requires that new development be <br />reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these <br />services and facilities are maintained. <br />Policy 3.2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no <br />development shall be approved unless it is consistent with the <br />concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements <br />Element. For rezoning requests, conditional concurrency review is <br />required. <br />Conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of <br />each facility with respect to a proposed project. Since rezoning <br />requests are not projects, county regulations call for the <br />concurrency review to be based upon the most intense use of the <br />subject property based upon the requested zoning district. For <br />commercial rezoning requests, the most intense use (according to <br />the county's land development regulations) is retail commercial <br />with 10,000 square feet of gross floor area per acre of land <br />proposed for rezoning. The site information used for the <br />concurrency analysis is as follows: <br />1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: ±4.2 acres <br />2. <br />Land Use <br />Designation: C/I, <br />Commercial/Industrial <br />3. <br />Existing <br />Zoning Classification: <br />CL, Limited Commercial <br />4. Proposed Zoning Classification: CG, General Commercial <br />5. Most Intense Use under Existing Zoning Classification: <br />±42,000 sq. ft. of Retail Commercial (Shopping Center in <br />the 5th Edition ITE Manual). <br />6. Most Intense Use under Proposed Zoning Classification: <br />±42,000 sq. ft. of Retail Commercial (Shopping Center in <br />the 5th Edition ITE Manual). <br />As per section 910.07(2) of the Concurrency Management Chapter of <br />the County's Land Development Regulations, projects which do not <br />increase density or intensity of use are exempt from concurrency <br />requirements. This rezoning request is exempt from concurrency <br />15 96oK 99 ?�c� *413OCTOBER 15, 1996 <br />
