Wetlands: There are 8 relatively small isolated wetlands on site which comprise a total of 17.34 acres. The applicant is proposing to preserve the majority of the wetlands on-site (12.11 acres) and create 7.85 of new wetlands. The result will be 19.96 acres of preserved and created wetlands on site at the completion of construction. Endangered Species: There are no endangered species on site which will be adversely impacted by the proposed development. 9. Concurrency Management: Long-range planning staff has indicated that a conditional concurrency certificate will be issued for this project prior to Board of County Commissioners consideration of this item. Thus, all concurrency related requirements related to conceptual PD plan and rezoning approval have been satisfied. 10. Stormwater Management: As with standard single-family subdivisions, a conceptual stormwater management plan is required prior to conceptual PD approval. For this project, a conceptual stormwater management plan has been approved by the Public Works Department. This includes a system of stormwater ponds within the golf course and residential pods, and "oversizing" of the system capacity to accommodate run-off from future adjacent roadway paving. Final review and approval of the stormwater management plan shall be accomplished through the land development permit process. 11. Thoroughfare Plan: The project has frontage on 4 thoroughfare plan roads. These are: 13' Street S.W., 17'" Street S.W., 2r Avenue, and 43'd Avenue. — The Thoroughfare plan classifies 13' Street S.W. as an urban collector which requires 90' of right-of-way. Since the project site is located on the south side of a sub -lateral canal, no additional right-of-way is required from the site for 13'b Street S.W. — The Thoroughfare Plan classifies 17' Street S.W. as an urban collector requiring 100' of right-of-way. Presently 30' of right-of-way exists. The applicant will need to dedicate an additional 30' without compensation to create the minimum 60' local road right-of-way width. In addition, the project survey shows a Murphy Act easement which extends 100' into the subject site along 17' Street S.W. Despite that survey information, Public Works has not been able to verify the existence of a Murphy Act Easement along 17' Street S.W. If the Murphy Act easement exists, then the county will not need to compensate the applicant for the 40' of right-of-way above and beyond the 60' local road standard. The applicant's design proposes all improvements outside of the potential 100' Murphy Act Easement which is also consistent with the ultimate right-of-way. Therefore, the PD plan accommodates the appropriate amount of r -o -w, regardless of the Murphy Act easement issue. However, that issue does need to be resolved to determine compensation. Prior to the issuance of a land development permit, the applicant will need to provide OCTOBER 24, 2000 -51- BK 1 15 PG 622
