Stormwater Manaczement All developments are reviewed for compliance with county stormwater regulations which require on-site retention, preservation of floodplain storage and minimum finished floor elevations In addition, development proposals must meet the discharge requirements of the county Stosmv, ater Management Ordinance. Since the site is located within the M-1 Drainage Basin and the Indian River Farms Water Control District (IRFWCD), development on the property will be prohibited from discharging any runoff in excess of two inches in a twenty-four hour period, which is the approved IRFWCD discharge rate. In this case, the minimum floor elevation level of service standards do apply, since the property lies within a floodplain. Also, both the on-site retention and discharge standards apply Based upon staff's analysis, the stormwater management level of service standard would be met by limiting off-site discharge to the IRFWCD's maximum discharge rate of two inches in twenty- four hours, and requiring retention of 394 459 cubic feet of runoff for the most intense use of the property. As with all development, a more detailed review will be conducted during the development approval process. Recreation A review of county recreation facilities and the projected demand that would result from the most intense development that could occur on the property under the proposed zoning district indicates that the adopted levels of service would be maintained. The table below illustrates the additional park demand associated with the proposed development of the property and the existing surplus acreage. Park Information LOS (Acres per 1,000 Population) Project Demand (Acres) Surplus Acreage Concurrency Summary Based upon the analysis conducted, staff has determined that all concurrency -mandated facilities, including stormwater management, roads, solid waste, recreation, water, and wastewater, have adequate capacity to accommodate the most intense use of the subject property under the proposed zoning district. Therefore, the concurrency test has been satisfied for the subject request. Consistency with Comprehensive Plan Rezoning requests are reviewed for consistency with all applicable policies of the comprehensive plan. Rezomngs must also be consistent with the overall designation of land uses as depicted on the Future Land Use Map, which include agriculture, residential, recreation, conservation, and commercial and industrial land uses and their densities. The goals, objectives and policies are the most important parts of the comprehensive plan. Policies are statements in the plan that identify the actions which the county will take in order to September 3, 2002
