BOGY ME 44, Transportation System The property abuts CR 510. Classified as an urban principal arterial roadway on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map, this segment of CR 510 is a 2 -lane road with approximately 80 feet of existing public road right-of-way. This segment of CR 510 is programmed for expansion to 4 lanes and 160 feet of public road right-of-way by 2010. ANALYSIS In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the application will be presented. The analysis will address: • concurrency of public facilities; 0 compatibility with the surrounding area; 0 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. To ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained, the comprehensive plan also requires that new development be reviewed. 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 LDRs, 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 conservation zoning district 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 allowed under the proposed zoning district. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: I. Size of Area to be Rezoned: 2. Existing Zoning District: Maximum Number of Units with Existing Zoning District: 4. Proposed Zoning District: tlll acres RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) 666 Con -1, Public Lands Conservation District (zero density) 5. Maximum Number of Units with Proposed Zoning District: 0 As per section 910.07(2) of the Concurrency Management Chapter of the County's LDRs, projects which do not increase density or intensity of use -are exempt from concurrency requirements. This rezoning request is exempt from concurrency review, because the requested zoning district would not increase the total number of potential units that the site could accommodate. It is important to note that there will be no effect on service levels for any public facility as a result of the proposed rezoning. Compatibility with the Surrounding Area Under the requested Con -1 zoning district, there will be no development on the subject property except for minor facilities associated with passive recreation activities. For that reason, the subject request will enhance compatibility between development on the site and surrounding land uses. APRIL 19 1997 38
