BOOK PACE . community. The Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations (LDRs) require that new development be reviewed to ensure that the minimum acceptable standards for these services and facilities are maintained. Policy 3.2 of the Future Land Use Element states that no development shall be approved unless it is consistent with the concurrency management system component of the Capital Improvements Element For rezoning requests, conditional concurrency review is requires. 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. For residential rezoning requests, the most intense use (according to the County's LDRs) 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. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: - 1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: ".68 acres 2. Existing Zoning District: A-1, Agricultural District (up to 1 unWS acres) 3. Proposed Zoning District: RS -3, Single -Family Residential District (up to 3 units/acre) 4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property Under Existing Zoning District: 1 Single -Family Unit 5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property Under Proposed Zoning District: 26 Single -Family Units ► Transportation As part of the concurrency review process, the applicant has submitted a Traffic Impact Statement (TIS). The county's Traffic Engineering Division has reviewed and approved that TIS. A TIS reports the number of peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips that would be generated by the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning district, and assigns those trips to impacted roads. Impacted roads are defined in section 910.09(4)(b)3 of the county's LDRs as roadway segments which receive five percent (50/6) or more of the project traffic or fifty (50) or more project trips, whichever is less. According to the approved TIS, the existing level of service on impacted roadways would not be lowered by the traffic generated by development of 26 single-family units on the subject property. Water With the proposed zoning, the subject property could accommodate 26 residential units, resulting in water consumption at a nate of 26 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 6,500 gallons/day. This is based upon a level of service of 250 gallons/ERU/day. Development on the subject property would be served by the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant which currently has a remaining capacity of approximately 1,908,665 gallons/day and can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed rezoning. Wastewater Based upon the most intense use allowed under the proposed zoning, development of the property will have a wastewater generation rate of approximately 26 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 6,500 gallonstday. This is based upon the level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. County wastewater service is available to the site from the West Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, which currently has a remaining capacity of 161,675 gallonstday and can accommodate the additional wastewater generated by the subject request. Solid Waste Solid waste service includes pick-up by private operators and disposal at the county landfill. The county's adopted level of service standard for landfill capacity is 237 cubic yards/person/ year. With the county's average of approximately 23 persons/unit, a 26 unit residential development would be anticipated to house approximately 60 people (2.3 X 26). For the subject request to meet the county's adopted level of service standard of 2.37 cubic yards/person/year, the landfill must have enough capacity to accommodate approximately 142 (60 X 2.37) cubic yardslyear.
