Policy 32 of the Future Land Use Element states that no development shall he approved unless it is consistent with the concurrency manarTement system cornponent of the Capital Impro ernents 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 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: I. Size of Area to be Rezoned: 50.3 acres 2. Existing Zoning District: RS -3, Single -Family Residential District (up to 3 units/acre) 3. Proposed Zoning District: RS -6, Single -Family Residential District (up to 6 units/acre) 4. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Existing Zoning District: 150 single-family units 5. Most Intense Use of Subject Property under Proposed Zoning District: 301 single-family units Transportation As part of the concurrency review process, the applicant has submitted a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA). The county's Traffic Engineering Division has reviewed and approved that TIA. A TIA reports the number of peak hour/peak season/peak direction trips that would be generated by the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning district, and assigns those trips to impacted roads. Impacted roads are defined in section 910.09(4)(b)3 of the county's LDRs as roadway segments which receive five percent (5%) or more of the project traffic or fifty (50) or more project trips, whichever is less. According to the approved TIA, the existing level of service on impacted roadways would not he lowered by the traffic generated by development of 301 single-family units on the subject property. Water Centralized potable water distribution lines extend from the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant to the subject property. With the most intense use allowed under the proposed rezoning, the subject property will have a water consumption rate of 301 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 75,250 gallons/day. This is based upon a level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. Since the South County Reverse Osmosis Plant currently has a remaining capacity of more than 3,900,000 gallons/dav, the plant can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning. Wastewater Centralized wastewater collection lines extend from the South Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant to the subject property. If a 301 unit residential project on the site connected to the regional sewer system, that project would have a wastewater generation rate of 301 Equivalent Residential Units (ERU), or 75,250 gallons/day. This is based upon a level of service standard of 250 gallons/ERU/day. Since the South Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant currently has a remaining capacity of approximately 651,000 gallons/day, the plant can accommodate the additional demand generated by the proposed zoning.
