County Wastewater Treatment The most intense use of the site allowed under the proposed land use designation is calculated to be 10,000 square feet of mail shopping center per acre of land proposed for redesigoaticm At that tate, the most intense use of the site would be 1,82UM square feet of rash development would be significantlymmmdy in ce larger than any shopping center ccurrently nter. Such a the county,including the Indian River Mall. A review of the traffic impacts that would result from such a development an dee subject property indicates that the existing level of service "D" or better on impacted roadways would not be lowered The site inf conation used for deters imug traffic Impacts is as follows: 1. Use Identified in 6th Edition ITE Manual: Shopping Center 2. For 1,825,000 sq.R. Shopping Centers in 6th Edition ITE Manual: a P.M. Peak Hour Trip Ends: 2.3 /1,000 square feet b. Inbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 50% L Northbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 60% ii. Southbound (PAL Peak Hour): 40% C. Outbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 50% L Northbound (P.M. Peak Hour): 40% ii. Southbound (P.M. Peak Hots): 60% 3. Peak Direction of Indian River Boulevard, from west Vero Beach city limits to 53'" Street: Northbound 4. Percentage of Project Trips on This Segment of Indian River Boulevard: 50 5. Formula for Detnmimng Number of Peak Hour/Peak Season/Peak Generated an the Most Direction Trips tal Segment of the Roadway Network (Indian River Boulevard): To Square Footage X "L Peak Hoar Rate X Inbound PAL Percentage X Inbound -Northbound Percentage X Percentage of Trips on Indian River Boulevard (1,825,000 X 233/1,000 X.5 X.6 X.5 - 638) (rep daft== based an FSUTMS Madel) 6. Traffic Capacity on this segntnt of Indian Rivet Boulevard, at a Level of Service "D": 1,890 peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips 7. Total Segment Demand (eatistmg volume + vested volume Boulevard: 651 peak hour/peak seaso ) on this segment of Indian River n/peak direction trips Staff used the above kf nation and a methodology simil to the one used for the previous site to determine traffic impacts. The only difference in the methodologies is related to the characteristics of the sites. Those characteristics indicate that the previous site would likay have only one ewancrJe= onto the roadway network, In contrast, development on the much would likely have several �ee/eMt larger subject , R site Boulevard would receive 50% of dee points. A trip distri'butiem model indicates that Indian River gam.' tathex than assignall Ulps to one road as was done with the Boulevard. previous 'only 50s1te'/0 of the tib were L to Indian River Based on that distdbwtion, staff deteratined that the additional 638 trips armed by the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed amendment would increase the Total Segment Demand for this segment of Indian River Boulevard to approximately 1,289, less than its capacity at LOS -D" (1,890).
