The site is bounded on the west by 661 Avenue. Classified as an urban minor arterial roadway on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map, this segment of 66' Avenue is a two-lane unpaved road with approximately 50 feet of public road right-of-way. No improvements are scheduled for the portion of 66t° Avenue between Oslo Road and SW 131 Street. The site is bounded on the north by Oslo Road Classified as an urban principal arterial roadway on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map, this segment of Oslo Road is a two-lane road with approximately 60 feet of public road right-of-way. The Indian River County MPO 1997 List of Priority Projects indicates that the segment of Oslo Road between 2r Avenue and 82nd Avenue will be expanded by two lanes in the time period between 2001-2005. In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the land use amendment request will be presented Specifically, this analysis will address: • concurrency of public facilities; • consistency with the county's comprehensive plan; • compatibility with the surrounding area; and • potential impact on environmental quality. This site is located outside of the county Urban Service Area; therefore, the property is not suited for urban scale development. Regardless, the Comprehensive Plan establishes minimum development 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 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 EIement. For Comprehensive Plan amendment requests, conditional concurrency review is required. Conditional concurrency review examines the available capacity of each facility with respect to a proposed project Since Comprehensive Plan amendment 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 Comprehensive Plan amendment 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 Redesignated: 2. Existing Land Use Designation: 3. Proposed Land Use Designation: 4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property Under Current Land Use Designation: *18.8 acres AG -1, Agricultural -1(up to 1 unit/5 acres) M-1, Medium Density Residential - 1 (up to 8 units/acre) 3 Single -Family Units 5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property Under Proposed Land Use Designation: 150 Single -Family Units Transportation A review of the traffic impacts that would result from the development of the property indicates that the existing level of service "D" or better on Oslo Road and other impacted roads would not be lowered The site information used for determining traffic impacts is shown in table 1.
