The subject property and all surrounding properties north of 41' Street are designated M-1, Medium - Density Residential -1, on the county future land use map. The M-1 designation permits residential uses with densities up to 8 units/acre. As part of the county's evaluation and appraisal process, properties south of the subject property, across 41' Street, were recently redesignated from M-1 to CA, Commercial/Industrial, on the county future land use map. The C/I designation permits various commercial and industrial zoning districts. In the future, the county plans to rezone that property to the MED, Medical, zoning district. The subject property is not designated as environmentally important or environmentally sensitive by the comprehensive plan. No wetlands or native upland plant communities exist on site. According to Flood Insurance Rating Maps, the subject property does not contain any flood hazard areas. The site is within the Urban Service Area of the county. Wastewater service is available to the site from the Central Region Wastewater Treatment Plant, while potable water service is available to the site from the North County Reverse Osmosis Plant. The site can be accessed by both Indian River Boulevard and 41' Street. Classified as an urban principal arterial on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map, the segment of Indian River Boulevard that abuts the subject property is a four lane road with approximately 200 feet of public road right-of-way.
