BOOK 108 FACE 62 <br />Heavy Repair Services <br />Outdoor Equipment Storage <br />Public Facilities <br />*Recreational Uses <br />Public Schools <br />Institutional Uses <br />Other Similar Type Uses <br />Note: The proposed golf course in the commercialhndustrial areas is consistent with this policy. <br />Policy -LM Node size shall be based on the intended use, service area population, existing land use <br />pattern, and other demand characteristics. <br />Note: The PD proposal is consistent with the low population density in the area, the existing land <br />uses and the lack of demand for industrial uses or commercial uses in this area. <br />Policy 1.21: Node configuration shall provide for the most efficient use of land, and of <br />transportation and other public facilities and services, while eliminating sprawl and strip <br />development. <br />Note: The PD proposal will hither this policy by making the remaining node area more compact. <br />Policy 5.3: Indian River County zoning districts shall permit a variety of residential building and <br />development styles. <br />Note: The proposed PD zoning district conforms to this policy by providing a district which allows <br />a flexible development style, and provides a mixture of compatible uses (recreation and <br />short-term rentals). <br />Policy 5.4: Indian River County LDRs shall contain a special Planned Development (PD) zoning <br />district. That district shall be designated as an overlay on the County Zoning Atlas. The PD zoning <br />district is intended to provide for the development of projects which require flexibility in order to <br />maximize open space and conserve natural features, provide alternative designs, incorporate <br />recreational facilities, and incorporate a mix of uses. <br />Note: The PD rezoning actually implements this policy, and provides for appropriate conservation <br />and use of open space on-site. <br />Poli, 5.6_: PDs shall be permitted throughout the county, without amendment of the future land use <br />map, provided the proposed development is shown to be consistent with the goals, objectives and <br />policies of the Comprehensive Plan. PDs shall be consistent with the maximum density permitted <br />by the future land use map unless density bonuses are permitted consistent with Future Land Use <br />Element Policy 5.7. <br />Note: The proposed PD rezoning is consistent with this policy in that the locations and uses are <br />consistent with the future land use plan map. <br />c 7 : The County shall provide protection to environmentally sensitive lands through land <br />development regulations that limit building densities, require mitigation for impacted areas, permit <br />the transfer of development rights, and promote the use of conservation easements, dedications, and <br />public acquisition. <br />Note: The PD rezoning requires a conceptual plan which facilitates preservation of the site's <br />environmentally sensitive lands. <br />Policy 7110: Through the use of fee simple purchase, transfer of development rights, and <br />conservation easements, Indian River County shall coordinate with other state, federal and local <br />agencies to identify and protect vegetative communities identified in Conservation Element policies <br />6.1 through 6.7. <br />Note: The PD rezoning will facilitate dedication of a conservation easement that satisfies county, <br />state, and federal environmental requirements. <br />FEBRUARY 16, 1999 <br />-28- <br />0 0 <br />
