Vice Chairman Ginn was very concerned also about this 6" Avenue corridor. She <br />wondered about transportation concurrency for this area because when she referred to the <br />future land use map for the southeast county there is an abundance of multi -family and <br />affordable housing. She is still opposed to density bonuses. <br />Community Development Director Robert Keating responded that the development <br />there is consistent with the Comp Plan which has been that way since the mid -1970's. It is <br />important to remember that these developments are occurring on the west side of Indian <br />River Boulevard, but nothing is going to occur on the east side. The County and FIND <br />(Florida Inland Navigation District) bought the properties there. The Strazullo property is <br />set aside in a conservation easement to mitigate some other development in that area, almost <br />all of the east side of the boulevard is in conservation which has reduced the density by half. <br />Also, Indian River Boulevard is a most appropriate area to put multi -family development; <br />it would be inappropriate to require single-family. Actually, Rockridge is pretty dense. <br />Many are 5,000 square foot lots which is really a net density of a little more than 8 units per <br />acre. Overall, staff is looking at consistency with the Comp Plan and he predicted it will be <br />a lot less intense than people think. <br />Chairman Macht thought the point is the fragility of the Rockridge neighborhood. <br />It is unique because it is an old development, but there is strong home ownership pride and <br />it is very well-maintained. You see almost no incidence of rundown conditions; many of <br />the homes have been modernized and revitalized. The Board needs to remedy any negative <br />impact these developments cause the area. <br />Vice Chairman Ginn felt the mature landscaping in Rockridge is nice. <br />In response to Commissioner Neuberger, Director Keating advised there is no plan <br />to widen 6t' Avenue in the 2025 MPO Long Range Plan. One of the initial concepts and <br />long range projects is to widen Indian River Boulevard to 6 -lanes as a by-pass of US #I . <br />February 18, 2003 <br />21 , <br />nil <br />
