• <br />Located within the urban service area, and near existing low density residential development, Subject <br />Property 2 is appropriate for residential development with a density of up to 3 units/acre. The <br />proposed amendment would allow that type of low density residential development on Subject <br />Property 2. Therefore, the proposed amendment is consistent with Future Land Use Element <br />Policies 1.11 and 1.12. <br />Future Land Use Element Polley 1.15 <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.15 states that the Commercial/Industrial land use designation <br />should be within the urban service area, in areas that are suitable for urban scale development and <br />intensities. <br />Located adjacent to Indian River Memorial Hospital property, within the urban service area, near <br />US 1 and Indian River Boulevard, and with urban services available, Subject Property 1 is <br />appropriate for commercial uses. The proposed amendment would allow commercial development <br />on Subject Property 1. Therefore, the proposed amendment is consistent with Future Land Use <br />Element Policy 1.15. <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.16 <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.16 sets specific maximum intensities and densities for <br />commercial/industrial development. Those standards limit the intensity of commercial/industrial <br />development throughout the county. Therefore, through Future Land Use Element Policy 1. 16, the <br />county has intensity standards for commercial/industrial development. Because any <br />commercial/industrial development on either subject property would be subject to those standards, <br />the request is consistent with Future Land Use Element Policy 1.16. <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.17 <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.17 states that county land development regulations shall provide <br />performance standards for commercial/industrial development which at a minimum address the <br />following: <br />• gross floor area; <br />• impervious surface ratios; <br />• minimum open space; <br />• parking; <br />• buffering and landscaping; and <br />• environmental impact. <br />As mandated in Future Land Use Element Policy 1. 17, county land development regulations contain <br />standards for commercial industrial development. Those standards limit the intensity of <br />commercial/industrial development throughout the county. Therefore, through Future Land Use <br />Element Policy 1. 17, the county has intensity standards for commercial/industrial development. <br />Because any commercial /industrial development on either subject property would be subject to <br />those standards, the request is consistent with Future Land Use Element Policy 1.17. <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.20 <br />Future Land Use Element Policy 1.20 states that nodes shall have a designated size based on the <br />intended use, service area population, existing land use pattern and other demand characteristics. <br />The amount of CA designated land is based on service area population, the existing land use pattern, <br />and other demand characteristics. The proposed amendment will not alter the amount of C/1 <br />designated land. Therefore, the proposed amendment is consistent with Future Land Use Element <br />Policy 1.20. <br />December 7, 1999 <br />65 <br />• <br />600K Ft1UE �' <br />
