r BOOK i0J PAGE 777 The subject property is an undisturbed site containing pine flatwoods and possibly wetlands and scrub habitat. Bald eagles, gopher tortoises and other protected species may reside on the 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. Water lines extend from the North County Reverse Osmosis Plant to the intersection of 65' Street and Old Dixie Highway, approximately 1,500 feet from the site. Wastewater lines extend from the North County Wastewater Treatment Plant to the corner of 73`d Street and Old Dixie Highway, approximately one mile from the site. The site is bounded on the south by 65t` Street. Classified as a rural major collector roadway on the future roadway thoroughfare plan map, this segment of 65`h Street is a two lane road with approximately 80 feet of public road right-of-way. No expansion of this segment of 65`h Street is programmed. In this section, an analysis of the reasonableness of the application will be presented. The analysis will include a description of: • concurrency of public facilities; • compatibility with the surrounding area; • consistency with the comprehensive plan; • potential impact on environmental quality; and • the applicable rezoning requirements. 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 also requires 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 upon the most intense use of the subject property based upon the requested zoning district. The site information used for the concurrency analysis is as follows: 1. Size of Area to be Rezoned: 2. Land Use Designation: ±11.4 acres L-1, Low -Density Residential -1 (up to 3 units/acre) July 13, 1999 30 • 0
