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. 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 also 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 required. 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 on the most intense use of the subject property based on the requested zoning district. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: *48.9 acres 2. Existing Zoning District: A-1, Agricultural District (up to 1 unit/5 acres) 3. Proposed Zoning District: 4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Existing Zoning District: 5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Proposed Zoning District: - Transportation RS -6, Single -Family Residential District (up to 6 uints/ acres) for :37.7 acres and RM -6, Multiple -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) for *11Z acres 9 single-family units 293 single-family units As part of the concurrency review process, the applicant has submitted a Traffic Impact Analvsis (TIA). The county's Traffic Engineering Division has reviewed and approved that TIA. A TIA reports the number of peak hour/peak seasowpeak 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 (5%) or more of the project traffic or fifty (50) or more project trips, whichever is less. According to the approved TIA, the existing level of service on impacted roadways would not be lowered by the traffic generated by development of 293 single-family units on the subject property. - Water Centralized potable water service is available to the subject property from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant. With the most intense use allowed under the proposed rezoning, the subject property will have a water consumption rate of 293 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 73.250 gallons/day. This is based upon a level of service standard of250 gallons/ERU/day. Since the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant currently has a remaining capacity of approximately 1.800.000 gallons/day, the plant can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning. When the North County Reverse Osmosis Plant is operating, the subject property will be served primarily by that plant. Since the North County Plant has capacity for approximately 2.000,000 gallons/day, that plant also can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning. - Wastewater Centralized wastewater service is available to the subject property from the North Countv Wastewater Treatment Plant. If a 293 unit residential project on the site connected to the regional sewer system, that project would have a wastewater generation rate of 293 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 73,250 gallonstday. This is based upon a level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. Since the North County Wastewater Treatment Plant currently has a remaining capacity of approximately 816,000 gallons/day, the plant can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning.
