DEO #: 19-01ESR
Dear Mr. Chighizola,
The Department of Transportation has completed its review of the above Comprehensive Plan Amendment as requested in your transmittal letter dated May 17, 2019.
Because the trip generation potential of the subject property is proposed to increase, the amendment may result in significant adverse impacts to the State Highway System (SHS) and Strategic Intermodal System (SIS). The Department is providing a technical assistance comment in the attached review.
If you have any questions, you may contact Tina Williamson at 386-943-5150 or by e-mail at [email protected].
Sincerely,
Jean Parlow Growth Management Coordinator

GENERAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City of Ocala has submitted the proposed City of Ocala 19-1 ESR Large-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment pertaining to ~217.54 acres of land located south of NW 35th Street, east of NW 27th Avenue, north of NW 21st Street, and west of the railroad (Parcel IDs 21382-001-00, 21385-000-00, 21385-001-00, 21418-000-00, 21387-000-00, & 21387-001-00). The proposed amendment changes the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designations of the subject area from Public to Medium Intensity/Special District.
The pertinent FLUM designation and description for the Future Land Use (FLU) amendment include the following:
CITY OF OCALA – PUBLIC The Public category shall be used for those parcels of land which are publicly owned and intended for the use of the general public. These include publicly-owned parks, active or passive recreational sites, educational facilities, conservation areas or other open space. Permitted primary uses include recreation, civic, and educational facilities. Secondary uses include commercial or other uses and activities consistent with the Recreation and Parks Element and the 2010 Recreation and Parks Master Plan.
There is no minimum density or intensity. The maximum intensity before any incentives is 0.15 FAR. The location and application of incentives shall be set forth in the Land Development Code.
CITY OF OCALA – MEDIUM INTENSITY/SPECIAL DISTRICT The intent of this category is to identify neighborhood and community-serving activity centers, generally represented as “Medium Low” or “Medium High” on the Ocala 2035 Vision. The Medium Intensity/Special District category facilitates developments with two (2) or more uses. Permitted uses include residential, office, commercial, public, recreation, educational facilities and institutional. Light industrial shall only be allowable in designated locations as specified in the Land Development Code and must meet the intent of the Medium Intensity/Special District category, including form and design guidelines as applicable. This mix is intended to promote a walkable urban form. The minimum density and intensity before any incentives in this future land use category is 5 dwelling units per gross acre or 0.15 FAR. The maximum density and intensity before any incentives is 30 dwelling units per acre or 4.0 FAR. The location and application of incentives shall be set forth in the Land Development Code.
Density: 5 to 30 units / acre Intensity: 0.14 to 4.0 FAR

FUTURE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT
Elements: Future Land Use Element (Future Land Use Map)
Rule Reference: Chapter 163, Florida Statutes
Background:
The City of Ocala has submitted the proposed City of Ocala 19-1 ESR Large-Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment pertaining to ~217.54 acres of land located south of NW 35th Street, east of NW 27th Avenue, north of NW 21st Street, and west of the railroad (Parcel IDs 21382-001-00, 21385-000-00, 21385-001-00, 21418-000-00, 21387-000-00, & 21387-001-00). The proposed amendment changes the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designations of the subject area from Public to Medium Intensity/Special District.
Today, the subject property exists as the Pine Oaks Golf Course and is proposed to be developed as a mixed-income residential subdivision with a variety of recreational amenities and some neighborhood-serving commercial uses. According to a recent appraisal, the golf course needs a major renovation at an estimated cost of at least $2 million. Only 12% of the people estimated to move into new homes on or near the golf course property play golf.
The proposed land use change will increase the number of dwelling units that can be built on the property from 0 to 30 per acre, or from a maximum of 0 dwelling units to 6,526 dwelling units. The maximum floor to area ratio (FAR) for nonresidential development would increase from 0.15 to 4.0, or from a maximum of 1,421,406 square feet of building space to a maximum of 37,904,169 square feet of building space.
A map of the subject area is provided in Figure 1.

Technical Assistance: A trip generation analysis was conducted by the reviewer to determine the maximum potential trips generated by the subject property under the proposed FLU change. The ITE Trip Generation Manual 10th
edition provides various categories such as industrial, residential, lodging and recreational. Given that the City of Ocala FLU designations are not identical to the ITE Trip Generation Manual 10th Edition land use categories, closely associated and reasonable land use categories were assumed for the proposed analysis and are displayed below. For consistency, the reviewer used the trip generation results based on the fitted curve.
Table 1 replicates the adopted land use designation of the subject property as its existing use as a Golf Course of approximately 218 acres.

commercial scenario is unlikely. The Applicant provides a conceptual redevelopment plan for the property. The redevelopment plan includes single-family detached housing units, multifamily residential units, non-specified commercial uses, and neighborhood recreational uses including a club house, pool, and dog park. Some of the recreational uses are neighborhood uses for residents only, and are therefore assumed to not attract additional trip generation. The Application also directly states “Realistically, the development will be limited by market demand and through a PD plan and associated traffic impact analysis.” Table 4 below shows the trip generation potential of the conceptual redevelopment plan provided by the Applicant.

The trip generation analysis using the 10th edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual based on adopted FLU designations would result in an increase of the trip generation potential of the subject property by 23,070 daily trips and 2,350 P.M. peak-hour trips.
The FDOT LOS Table (2015) was used to capture the LOS Standard of the state roadways, the service volume at the LOS Standard, and the projected AADT for years 2018, 2028 and 2040.

According to the analysis in Table 6, it is projected that I-75 from SR 500 to SR 326 and SR 25 from SR 500 to CR 200A will experience an AADT above the LOS Standard service volume in 2040. The conceptual redevelopment of the subject property proposes access points at NW 35th Street, NW 27th Avenue and NW 21st Street. New local roads are proposed within the subject property boundaries with access points to the existing roadway network.
Because the trip generation potential of the subject property is proposed to increase, the amendment may result in significant adverse impacts to the State Highway System (SHS) and Strategic Intermodal System (SIS). The Department is providing the following technical assistance comment:
1. The City of Ocala should continue to monitor impacts to State Facilities through traffic impact analyses as development progresses past the amendment stage, and should coordinate with the Department in order to identify appropriate mitigation strategies to address potential impacts to State Facilities
The Department respectfully requests a copy of the adopted plan. Please provide the adopted plan within 10 working days of adoption, in order to assist in facilitating review within the required 30-day time frame from adoption, as required by Statutes (Expedited State Review Amendment Process Section 163.3184(3) and (5), Florida Statutes).
We are providing a technical assistance comment consistent with Section 163.3168(3), Florida Statutes. The technical assistance comment will not form the basis of a challenge. The technical assistance comment can strengthen the local government’s comprehensive plan in order to foster a vibrant, healthy community or is technical in nature and designed to ensure consistency with the Community Planning Act in Chapter 163, Part II, F.S.
