prove the following amendments to the Plan and LDR' s, pursuant
to general law:
Volume II, Chapter 5, Section B(I)(b), page 34 of the Plan is hereby
amended to read as follows:
b.
Level of Service
It is the policy of the Comprehensive Plan that all segments of
U.S. 1 in Monroe County be maintained at Level of Service "C" as
measured by the U.S. 1 Level of Service Task Force Methodology. All
other roadways shall be maintained at Level of Service "D" as measured
by the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual.
It is also the policy of the Board to provide for the essential
health care related transportation needs of the mentally, physically
and economically disadvantaged. To the extent possible, loading and
unloading facilities for such transportation needs should be included
in all uses likely to be served by such transportation.
Section 9.5-4(L-4) of the LDR's is hereby amended to read as follows:
(L-4) Level of service means a quantitative measure describing
operational conditions within a traffic stream. The procedures
contained in the "Highway Capacity Manual, Special Report 209," by the
Transportation Research Board of the National Research Council, 1985,
as updated or created shall be the primary basis and reference for
determining the level of service of any given roadway other than U.S.
I, bicycle path, or pedestrian facility. For U.S. 1 the basis for
, '
determining level of service is the methodology developed by the U.S.
1 Level of Service Task Force.
Section 9.5-292(a)(1)a of the LDR's is hereby amended to read as
follows:
a. County Road 905 within three (3) miles of a parcel proposed
for development shall have sufficient available capacity to
operate at level of service D as measured on an annual
average daily traffic (AADT) basis at all intersections
and/or roadway segments. U.S. 1 shall have sufficient
available capacity to operate at level of service C on an
overall basis as measured by the U.S. 1 Level of Service Task
Force Methodology. In addition, the segment or segments of
U.S. 1, as identified in the U.S. 1 Level of Service Task
Force Methodology, which would be directly impacted by a
proposed development's access to U.S. 1, shall have
sufficient available capacity to operate at level of service
C as measured by the U.S. 1 Level of Service Task Force
Methodology.
Sections 9.5-292(a)(I)c and d of the LDR's are hereby amended to read
as follows:
c. In areas which are served by inadequate transportation
facilities on U.S. 1, development may be approved provided
that the development in combination with all other permitted
development will not decrease travel speed by more than five
(5) percent below level of service C, as measured by the U.S.
1 Level of Service Task Force Methodology.
d. Within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the official 1989
FDOT traffic counts of U.S. Highway 1 the county shall
publish a notice informing the public of the available
transportation capacity for each road segment of U.S. 1 as
described in the county's annual public facilities capacity
report. The available capacity shall be expressed in terms
of the number of trips remaining until the adequate
transportation facilities standard is exceeded. The notice
shall be published in the nonlegal section of the local
newspapers of greatest general circulation in the Lower,
Middle and Upper Keys.
Section 9.5-292(a)(I)e of the LDR's is hereby deleted.
Section 9.5-292(b)(3) and (4) of the LDR's is hereby amended to read
I '
as follows:
(3) Annual assessment of public facilities capacity: On or before
June 15 of each year, the director of planning shall submit to
the board of county commissioners a report of the capacity of
available public facilities in each of the service areas
established in paragraph (2) of this subsection. The report
shall be based on standard analytical methodologies and shall
include a projection of the amount of residential and
nonresidential growth that can be accommodated in each of the
service areas during the ensuing year without exceeding safe
and efficient provision of essential public services. The
report shall clearly identify areas of inadequate facility
capacity which are those areas with capacity below the adopted
level of service standards as provided in subsection (a),
paragraphs (1) through (4), and areas of marginally adequate
facility capacity which are those areas at the adopted level of
service standard or which are projected to reach inadequate
capacity within the next twelve (12) months. In addition, the
report shall include growth trends and projections and
development permit monitoring system for each service area.
(4) Ratification of the annual servi~e capacity report: No later
than July 1 of each year, the board of county commissioners
shall consider and approve or approve with modifications thl~
annual assessment of public facilities capacity. In the event
the board acts to increase the development capacity of any
service area, the board shall make specific findings of fact as
to the reasons for the increase, including the source of funds
to be used to pay for the additional capacity required to serve
additional development to be permitted during the next
twelve-month period.
Section 9.5-292(b)(5)(b) of the LDR's is hereby amended to read as
follows:
b. Areas of inadequate facility capacity: The county shall not
approve applications for development in areas of the county
which are served by inadequate facilities identified in the
annual adequate facilities report, except the county may
approve development that will have no reduction in the
capacity of the facility or where the developer agrees to
increase the level of service of the facility to the adopted
level of service standard. In areas which are served by
inadequate transportation facilities, development may be
approved in accordance with paragraph (a)(l)(c) of this
section. An applicant, except for persons applying for a
single-family residence, shall prepare a facilities impact
report which demonstrates that:
(i) The development, will no't reduce the capacity of the
facility; or
(ii) The necessary facilities and services are in place at
the time a development permit is issued; or
(iii) A development permit is issued subject to the condition
that the necessary facilities and services will be in
place when the impacts of the development occur; or
(iv) The necessary facilities are under construction at the
time a permit is issued; or
(v) The necessary facilities and services are guaranteed in
an enforceable development agreement, which may
include, but is not limited to, development agreements
pursuant to Florida Statutes section 163.3220, or an
agreement or development order issued pursuant to
Florida Statutes chapter 380; or
(vi) The necessary facilities and services will be served by
a concurrency managemen.t system which meets the
requirements of rule 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code,
and Florida Statutes chapter 163.
The same are hereby transmitted to the state land pla,nning agen.-
cy for approval or di sapproval pursuant: to F. S. 380.0552 (9) .
Each amendment is to be considered individually, severally, and
independently of one another.
