Comprehensive Plan Capital Improvements Element accurate and current available capacity estimate for each facility, projected demand from development applications can be compared to the available capacity for the facility to determine if the project can be approved. The purpose of the monitoring program is to maintain a current estimate of available capacity for each facility . The monitoring system portion of the concurrency management plan is maintained by the county ' s planning division. Using a network computer system and data base management software, records were developed and are maintained for each specific facility . Based upon information in the specific comprehensive plan elements, total capacity figures for each applicable facility are maintained in data base files established for each public facility category . Capacity figures are modified as facilities are expanded or as criteria specified in the availability of capacity section are met. thereby allowing a programmed expansion to be considered for capacity determination purposes . Through contact with other county departments, planning staff are able to modify capacity estimates as soon as facility characteristics are changed. Table 6 . 17 depicts the general structure of the monitoring system data base file for each public facility category . This table shows that available capacity for each specific facility is a function of total capacity less existing demand and less committed demand . The demand section of this concurrency management plan identifies the methodology for assessing demand.
