• The subject property 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, Stormwater Management and Recreation (Future Land Use Policy 3.1). 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. For rezoning requests, this review is undertaken as part of the conditional concurrency determination application process. 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: 10.54 acres 2. Existing Zoning District: RS -1, Single -Family Residential District (up to 1 unit/acre) 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: RS -6, Single -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) 1 single-family unit 1 single-family unit As stated in the County's LDRs, projects which do not increase density or intensity of use are exempt from concurrency requirements. This rezoning request is exempt from concurrency review because a deed restriction on the subject property ensures that, regardless of the zoning district, the site cannot be developed with more than 1 residence. For that reason, the proposed rezoning will not create additional impacts on any concurrency facilities. As with all development, a detailed concurrency analysis will be done in conjunction with any new development on site. That concurrency analysis will address facility service levels and demand. Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with all policies of the comprehensive plan. Those requests must also be consistent with the overall designation of land uses as depicted on the Future Land Use Map, which includes agricultural, residential, recreational, conservation, and commercial and industrial land uses and their densities. Commercial and industrial land uses are located in nodes throughout the unincorporated areas of Indian River County. May 2, 2000 57 BOOK �.�„► PAGE •
