Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvements Element <br /> Project Applicability <br /> All development orders issued by the county must comply with the concurrency management plan and <br /> meet level -of-service standards . Development orders are county approvals for construction and/or <br /> land development activity. Specifically, development orders consist of the following: comprehensive <br /> plan amendments, rezonings, site plan approvals, preliminary plat approvals, development of regional <br /> impact (DRI) approvals, planned development preliminary approvals, and building permit approvals <br /> for single-family homes located in subdivisions which were approved after February 13 , 1990, the <br /> original adoption date of the county ' s comprehensive plan. <br /> According to Section 163 .3180(6), F. S . , the impact from the construction of a single family home on <br /> an existing lot may constitute a de minimus impact on public facilities . State law allows such de <br /> minimus projects to be exempt from the concurrency requirement. Prior to 2005 , however, Indian <br /> River County allowed single-family subdivision projects to postpone final concurrency determinations <br /> until building permit applications for individual lots . For that reason, the County could not use the de <br /> minimus allowance in the past. With the County now requiring final concurrency at the project <br /> approval phase, Indian River County shall apply the single family de minimus allowance to single <br /> family building permits in subdivisions platted before February 13 , 1990 . <br /> Service Standards <br /> Level-of-service standards for concurrency related facilities are established in this plan for the <br /> following facilities : sanitary sewer, potable water, solid waste, stormwater management, recreation, <br /> and transportation. These are explained in detail in the applicable comprehensive plan elements. <br /> For each facility, level-of- service is a measure of the relationship between demand for the service and <br /> the capacity of the facility . Capacity, however, is measured differently for each type of facility. Table <br /> 6 . 17 identifies both the capacity and demand measures for each public facility . These measures are <br /> addressed in detail, and existing capacities are identified in the applicable Comprehensive Plan <br /> Elements. <br /> Table 6. 16 : Service Level Measures for Concurrency Related Facilities <br /> Public Facility Category Specific Facility Capacity Measure Demand Measure Geographic Scope <br /> Transportation Roadway Volume of cars Peak Season/Peak <br /> accommodated over time Direction/Peak Hour Trips Affected Roadways <br /> SanitarySewer Treatment Plant Treatment design Capacity <br /> (GPD) Generation Rate (GPD) Service Area <br /> Potable Water Treatment Plant Treatment Design Capacity Generation Rale (GPD) Service Area <br /> (GPD) <br /> Solid Waste Landfill Volume in active cell (cubic Generation Rate (tons per Entire County <br /> Community Development Department Indian River County <br /> 41 <br />
