2015 SECOND REGULAR CYCLE

AMENDMENTS TO THE 2010-2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN

DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY TRANSMITTAL BOOK

INTRODUCTION This is the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) transmittal public hearing book for the Second Regular Cycle State-Coordinated Review Amendments (2015-2) to the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) and Comprehensive Plan (CP). These amendments were heard by the Local Planning Agency (LPA) at a transmittal public hearing on June 18, 2015, and by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) at a transmittal public hearing on July 28, 2015. Please note the following modifications to this report:

KEY TO HIGHLIGHTED CHANGES Highlight When changes made Yellow At the LPA transmittal public hearing Blue Following the LPA transmittal public hearing (by staff) Green At the BCC transmittal public hearing

The 2015-2 Regular Cycle State-Coordinated Review amendments include three privately-initiated Future Land Use Map Amendments (located in District 1) and one staff-initiated amendment. These proposed amendments are located in the Horizon West Sector Plan, and therefore, are subject to the State-Coordinated Review process. .A second round of public hearings for adoption of these proposed amendments will occur after the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) and other State agencies complete their review of the amendments and provide comments, which are expected in September 2015. Pursuant to 163.3184, F.S., the proposed amendments must be adopted within 180 days of the comment letter. The adoption public hearings are tentatively scheduled for the LPA on October 15, 2015, and the BCC on November 10, 2015. Once the Regular Cycle State-Coordinated amendments have been adopted by the BCC, they will become effective approximately 45 days after the date on which the Notice of Intent (NOI) is posted to the DEO’s Internet site, provided no challenges are brought forth for any of the amendments. These amendments are expected to become effective in January 2016. Any questions concerning this document should be directed to Alberto A. Vargas, MArch., Manager, Planning Division at (407) 836-5308 or [email protected], or Gregory Golgowski, Chief Planner at (407) 836-5624 or [email protected].

Staff Recommendation  

Make a finding of consistency with the Comprehensive Plan (see Future Land Use Element Policies FLU1.4.1, FLU1.4.2, FLU4.1.1, FLU8.2.1, FLU8.2.2, FLU8.2.11), determine  that  the amendment  is  in compliance, and TRANSMIT Amendment 2015‐2‐A‐1‐2, Horizon West, Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP)  –  Apartment  District  (APT)  and Wetland/Conservation  (CONS)  to  Horizon West,  Village  H Specific Area Plan (SAP) – Village Home District (VHD) and Wetland/Conservation (CONS). 

Analysis 

1. Background Development Program  

The applicant has requested to amend the Horizon West Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP) Land Use Map by  replacing  the existing Apartment District  (APT) designation on Parcel 45 with  the Village Home District  (VHD) designation. The existing Wetland/Conservation area  (CONS) will remain as  it currently exists.  

The  parcel  is  located  at  11355  Avalon  Road;  generally  described  as  located  on  the  east  side  of Avalon Road, north of  Lake  Star Road,  south of  Flamingo Crossings Boulevard, and west of  State Route  429.  The  intermediate  area has multiple  Planned Developments  that  contain  a mixture of future residential and commercial development, all of which are part of the Horizon West Village H and I Specific Area Plans. The property is surrounded on the north, east, and south by wetlands and by  the  boundary  of  Horizon  West  Village  I.  There  have  not  been  any  Planned  Developments approved adjacent to the subject parcel within Village  I  to the east. Additionally, the Reedy Creek Improvement District (RCID) has land nearby to the east that is used for its operational purposes.   

This parcel is part of the larger, previously approved Springhill Planned Developemt (PD), approved April 9, 2013. The  Springhill PD is a 550.03 acre mixed residential and commercial PD,  containing a mixture of Village Center, Neighborhood Center, Apartment, Townhome, Estate, Garden Home, and Village Home Districts on 189.23 net developable acres. The Springhill PD also contains land planned for an elementary school,  fire station, and expansion area  for  the CR 545  (Avalon Road) Right‐of‐Way. 

The allowable area density on Parcel 45 within the existing Apartment District (APT) designation  is up to 25 dwelling units per net developable acre, with a maximum of 285 dwelling units, though the approved PD proposed 262 units. With the proposed Village Home District (VHD),  if approved, the permitted  density  within  the  developable  area  would  be  up  to  7.5  dwelling  units  per  net developable  acre, with  a maximum  of  85  dwelling  units.  The  wetland/conservation  area within Parcel 45 is not changing, and a Conservation Area Determination will be performed as the PD goes through the development process.  

If  this  request  is  approved,  a Change Determination Request  (CDR) will need  to be  submitted  to amend the approved Springhill PD Land Use Plan (LUP).

2. Project Analysis  

Consistency  

The  proposed  Specific Area  Plan  (SAP)  Future  Land Use Map  (FLUM)  amendment  appears  to  be consistent  with  the  applicable  Goals,  Objectives,  and  Policies  of  the  Comprehensive  Plan.  As Comprehensive Plan  (CP) Policies FLU1.4.1 and FLU4.1.1.C state, the Village and overall area shall contain a diversity of housing  types  to enable  citizens  from a wide  range of economic  levels and provide for a diversified community, and design should be based on an urban character. The parcel will maintain  this  diversity  as  the  options  for  detached  and  attached  single  family  homes  and townhomes will be present; housing diversity will also continue being maintained within the  larger Springhill PD and Village H.   

Policy FLU4.1.1.I states that, whenever possible, the natural terrain, drainage, and vegetation of the area shall be preserved with superior examples contained within parks or greenbelts. The existing and identified Wetland/Conservation (CONS) area for the natural wetlands will not be modified with this request, and the goal of that policy will be upheld. The proposed change to Village Home District will maintain  the  exisitng  housing  diversity within  Village  H  and Horizon West.  Additionally,  the reduction  in  housing  density  caused  by  this  proposed  change  will  reduce  the  intensity  of development along  the adjacent wetland and provide an opportunity  for better or more efficient conservation of the area. 

The proposed change to Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP) on Parcel 45 is also consistent with Policy FLU8.2.2, which states that continous stretches of similar housing types and density of units shall be avoided. As  identified on  the Future  Land Use Map,  there are  large  swaths of Apartment District (APT) designations to the north and south of the subject parcel, which, with the current designation on  the parcel, create  the possibility  for a continuous development of apartments. The    requested amendment will eliminate that possability and let the area meet the policy goal. 

Compatibility 

Policies  FLU1.4.2  and  FLU8.2.1  require  that  land  use  changes  be  compatible  with  the  existing development and development  trends  in  the area, and Policy FLU8.2.11  states  that  compatibility may not necessarily be determined to be a land use that is identical to those uses that surround it. The applicant proposes a change to develop the subject site with single‐family residential units.   

Compatibility  with  existing  development  in  the  area:  Though  there  is  currently  no  existing developments  in  the  immediate vicinity of  the  subject parcel,  the proposed Village Home District (VHD)  SAP  designation  would  allow  a  variety  of  single‐family  residential  development  that  is compatible  with  the  Horizon West  residential  developments  in  the  vicinity.  This  change  is  also compatible with the existing LUP of the Springhill PD, as it maintains the density requirements and residential  character  of  the  neighborhood.  Lastly,  this  change  would  reduce  the  impact  of development  to  the  adjacent wetland  and  conservation  area  as  there would  be  fewer  allowed dwellings. 

Compatibility  with  development  trend  in  the  area:  There  have  not  been  any  active  land developments  adjacent  to or  immediately within  the  area of  the  subject parcel,  and  the  current surrounds  are  all  forested  area  or  previously  graded,  undeveloped  land.  This  amendment  is compatible with  the  future  development  trends  in  the  area,  as  this  area  has  been  planned  for different types of development with the Horizon West Village H SAP, and there will be development

of different types of residential, village commercial, and school sites in close proximity to the subject site. This change also reflects the trend in Horizon West to have lower impact development adjacent to the wetland areas. The proposed amendment will lower the intensity of development next to the wetland  that  is  adjacent  to  the  developable  area  on  all  three  sides.  Based  on  the  development characteristics and  the approved  land development plans  for  the area,  the proposed change  from Apartment  District  (APT)  to  Village  Home  District  (VHD)  is  compatible  with  the  development patterns of the area. 

3. Public Facilities and Services 

Environmental.  There  are  wetlands  located  onsite  that  extend  offsite.  Prior  to  issuance  of  any Orange County permits or development approvals, the Environmental Protection Division (EPD) will require a completed Conservation Area Determination (CAD), and if encroachments are proposed, a Conservation Area Impact (CAI) Permit, consistent with Chapter 15, Article X Wetland Conservation Areas.  This  property was  not  included  in  CAD  05‐218  completed  for  the western  parcels  on  the Springhill Planned Development. Approval of this request does not authorize any direct or  indirect impacts to conservation areas or protective buffers.  

Until wetland permitting  is  complete,  the developable acreage  is  the gross acreage  less wetlands and surface waters. Any plan showing development  in a wetland area without Orange County and other jurisdictional governmental agency wetland permits is speculative and may not be approved.  

The removal, alteration or encroachment within a Class I Conservation Area shall only be allowed in cases where: no other  feasible or practical alternatives exist,  impacts are unavoidable  to allow a reasonable use of the land, or where there is an overriding public benefit, as determined before the Orange County Board of County Commissioners.  

Development of  the subject property shall comply with all state and  federal  regulations regarding wildlife or plants  listed as endangered,  threatened, or species of special concern. The applicant  is responsible  for  determining  the  presence  of  listed  species  and  obtaining  any  required  habitat permits from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and/or the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). This site may be suitable habitat for the sand skink and blue‐tailed mole skink. Note  that skink surveys are conducted annually during a specific  time period between March and May.  

Utilities. The subject property will be served by Orange County Utiltities and any trsmission system improvements  and  connection  points  must  be  in  accordance  with  the  approved  Horizon West Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP) Master Utilitiy Plan (MUP). 

Transportation. The trip generation analysis indicates that the proposed amendment will result in a reduction of pm peak hour trips by 83 trips, or a 48% reduction. Therefore, the potential impact of the proposed development on the surrounding transportation infrastructure is significantly reduced. Final permitting of any development on this site will be subject to further review and approval from the County’s Development Review Committee (DRC) as well as an assessment of roadway capacity constraints based on  the Transportation Concurrency Management System, and  the applicant will be required to mitigate any deficiencies that may occur from the proposed development. 

Schools. The project must have an executed Capacity Enhancement Agreement  (CEA) prior  to  the Board of County Commissioners  approval.  The  applicant has  submitted  an  application  (reference #OC‐15‐008) to the Orange County School Board.

July 28, 2015  Commission District 1   Page | 7 

4. Policy References 

FLU1.4.1  Orange County shall promote a range of living environments and employment opportunities in order to achieve a stable and diversified population and community. 

 FLU1.4.2   Orange County shall ensure that land use changes are compatible with and serve  

existing neighborhoods. 

FLU4.1.1  General Village Principles. Each Village Specific Area Plan (SAP) shall be designed based on  an  urban  development  pattern,  which  encourages  the  formation  of  a  suburban village while ensuring the provision of adequate public facilities and services concurrent with development and protection of environmental quality. 

A. Planning  for  the  Village  shall  be  in  the  form  of  complete  and  integrated neighborhoods  containing  housing,  shops, workplaces,  schools,  parks  and  civic facilities essential to the daily life of the Village residents. 

B. Village size shall be designed so that housing  is generally within a 1.2 mile radius of  the  Village  Center  (shops,  services  and  other  activities).  This  radius may  be relaxed where natural or community facilities and services interrupt the design.  

C. A Village shall contain a diversity of housing types to enable citizens from a wide range of economic levels and age groups to live within its boundaries.  

D. Wherever possible, as many activities as possible shall be  located within an easy walking distance of an existing or designated transit stop.  

E. The  Village  and  each  neighborhood  shall  have  a  center  focus  that  combines commercial,  civic,  cultural  and  recreational  uses.  Higher  density  residential development  should  be  encouraged  in  proximity  to  these  centers,  with  the highest density/attached housing encouraged in proximity to the Village Center.  

F. The Village shall contain an ample supply of specialized open space in the form of squares, greens and parks whose frequent use  is encouraged through placement and design.  

G. Each Village shall have a well‐defined edge, such as greenbelts or wildlife corridors permanently protected from development.  

H. Local and collector streets, pedestrian paths and bike paths shall contribute to a system of fully connected and interesting routes from individual neighborhoods to the Village Center and to other villages. Their design should encourage pedestrian and bicycle use by being spatially defined by buildings, trees, and lighting; and by discouraging high speed traffic.  

I. Wherever possible, the natural terrain, drainage and vegetation of the area shall be preserved with superior examples contained within parks or greenbelts.  

J. The Village Center shall be designed to encourage and accommodate linkage with the regional transit system.  

 FLU8.2.1   Land use changes shall be required to be compatible with the existing development and 

development  trend  in  the  area.  Performance  restrictions  and/or  conditions may  be placed on property through the appropriate development order to ensure compatibility. No restrictions or conditions shall be placed on a Future Land Use Map change.  

 FLU8.2.2   Continuous stretches of similar housing  types and density of units shall be avoided. A 

diverse mix of uses and housing types shall be promoted.

 FLU8.2.11   Compatibility may not necessarily be determined  to be a  land use  that  is  identical  to 

those  uses  that  surround  it.  Other  factors  may  be  considered,  such  as  the  design attributes of  the project,  its urban  form,  the physical  integration of  a project  and  its function  in  the  broader  community,  as  well  its  contribution  toward  the  Goals  and Objectives in the CP. The CP shall specifically allow for such a balance of considerations to occur.

July 28, 2015  Commission District 1   Page | 14 

Staff Recommendation  

Make  a  finding of  consistency with  the Comprehensive  Plan  (see  Future  Land Use  Policies  FLU1.4.2, FLU4.1.1,  FLU4.1.5,  FLU4.5.1,  FLU4.5.4.1,  FLU4.5.6,  FLU8.2.1,  and  FLU8.2.11),  determine  that  the amendment is in compliance, and TRANSMIT Amendment 2015‐2‐A‐1‐4, Horizon West, Lakeside Village Specific Area Plan (SAP) – Greenbelt (GB) and Wetland/Conservation (CONS) to Horizon West, Lakeside Village Specific Area Plan (SAP) – Estate District (ED) and Wetland/Conservation (CONS). 

NOTE:  The  proposed  recommendation  of  Transmittal  of  Amendment  2015‐2‐A‐1‐4  is  subject  to adoption  of  staff‐initiated  text  Amendment  2015‐1‐B‐FLUE‐4  to  the  Future  Land  Use  Element.  The proposed Amendment 2015‐1‐B‐FLUE‐4 establishes a Reams Road Corridor Study Area  (proposed new Future Land Use Policy FLU4.5.4.1) in Lakeside Village in order to achieve the mix of residential uses and to  provide  a  residential  transition  zone  within  the  largest  greenbelt  system  in  Horizon  West.  The proposed  Future  Land Use  Element  Policy  FLU4.5.4.1  defines  appropriate  densities within  the  Study Area.  The  proposed  staff‐initiated  text  Amendment  2015‐1‐B‐FLUE‐4  is  scheduled  for  the  Board  of County  Commissioners  adoption  public  hearing  on  July  28,  2015.  Amendment  2015‐1‐B‐FLUE‐4 was adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on July 28, 2015. 

Analysis 

1. Background Development Program  

At the July 28, 2015 Board of County Commissioners Transmittal Public Hearing, the Board voted to transmit only  the northern portion of  the request. Thus,  the original request  to convert  two  large swaths of Greenbelt (GB) to Estate District (ED) has been modified to only include the northern tract of  existing GB,  as  shown on  the  Future  Land Use  – As Proposed map.  The  southern portion will remain  Greenbelt  (GB)  and  the  proposed  cross‐wetland  connection  between  the  two  areas will remain Wetland/Conservation  (CONS).  The  proposed  development  program  of  up  to  75  single‐family dwelling units will remain unchanged.  

The applicant has requested to change the Lakeside Village Specific Area Plan (SAP) designation on the subject site from Greenbelt  (GB) and Wetland/Conservation  (CONS) to Estate District  (ED) and Wetland/Conservation (CONS). The subject site consists of one parcel totaling 306.8 gross acres, of which approximately 70.8 acres are developable. The subject properties are part of the Lake Reams Neighborhood of the Lakeside Village.  

The  subject  site  is  located on  the east  side of  Ficquette Road,  south and west of Winter Garden Vineland Road and north of Center Drive. It  is surrounded by vacant  lands on the north side; Oasis Cove  townhome  development  (vested  development),  vacant  residential  lots,  and  several  single‐family  homes  on  the west  side;  an  existing  Church  of  Jesus  Christ  of  Latter‐Day  Saints  (vested development) and Lakes of Windermere – Peachtree subdivision consisting of single‐family homes on  the south side; and HOA properties/Lake Sawyer subdivision on  the east side. Most properties surrounding  the  subject  site  are  currently  designated  as  Greenbelt  (GB), Wetland/Conservation (CONS), Estate District  (ED) and Vested Developments (church and Oasis Cove townhomes) on the Lakeside Village SAP. The property across the street, on the west side of Reams Road (consisting of two parcels) have recently obtained the Estate District  (ED) designation on the upland portions of both lots (Case #2014‐1‐A‐1‐2). The property directly to the south of those two parcels (consisting of four parcels) is currently in the process of obtaining the Village Home District (VHD) designation on its  upland  portion  (Case  #2015‐1‐A‐1‐1).  Figure  1  below  shows  existing  SAP  designations  on  the

Project Community Meetings. Two community meetings were held for this project. During the first community meeting, which took place on May 11, 2015, the applicant, Jim Hall, presented his initial request for the Village Home District (VHD) SAP designation to allow for development of up to 284 single‐family dwelling units on approximately 70 acres of uplands. Residents  in attendance voiced numerous concerns related to potential development of wetlands, environmental conditions on the property, presence of wildlife habitat, preservation of wildlife corridors,  improved access from the surrounding neighborhoods, the proposed development  intensity on  lands currently designated as Greenbelt (GB) and Wetland/Conservation (CONS), and effect of the proposed development on the nearby properties. The applicant, Jim Hall, clarified that the proposed development will only occur on the upland portions of the property, and the wetlands will not be affected. He also displayed a map identifying the uplands and indicated that uplands account for less than a quarter of the total acreage, or about 70 acres. Mr. Hall added that additional environmental testing  is being done on the property and  indicated  that  the application will be adjusted based on  the comments received from the community. 

At the second community meeting that took place on June 4, 2015 the applicant, Mr. Hall, revealed an updated development program  for  the subject  site. The applicant explained  that  the originally proposed development program for the site was significantly reduced to address concerns related to the amount of the proposed development,  its  impacts on the wetland systems present on site, preservation of wildlife habitat, and potential impacts on the surrounding residential developments.

The portion of  the  site’s upland proposed  to be developed was  reduced  from 70.8 acres  to 41.5 acres, and the proposed number of units was reduced from 284 to 75 single‐family residential units, which will result  in preservation of the majority of the subject site, or about 87%, that will not be developed. Additionally, Mr. Hall noted that the proposed access to this development will be from Reams Road.  

To summarize, the applicant is now requesting the SAP designation of Estate District (ED), which has the associated density of 2 DU/acre and will allow for development of 75 single‐family homes. The existing and proposed land use designations are depicted in Figure 2.

2. Project Analysis  

Consistency  The  requested  Future  Land  Use  Map  (FLUM)  amendment  appears  to  be  consistent  with  the applicable Comprehensive Plan goals, objectives, and policies, which are specifically discussed in the paragraphs below.  

The Horizon West  special planning  area  is based on  a number of best planning principles, which include, but are not limited to, diversity of housing types and preservation of Village edges through creation  of  greenbelts  along  perimeters  of  each  of  the  five  Villages  and  the  Town  Center.  The paragraphs  below  describe  how  the  proposed  amendment  meets  these  founding  principles  of Horizon West.  

Horizon West Principles. Future Land Use Element Policy FLU4.1.1 lists a requirement for a diversity of housing types among general village principles while Policy FLU4.1.5 states that the development of a variety of lot sizes and housing types is encouraged within Village neighborhoods, with generally higher densities  located  in proximity to the village center and neighborhood center. The proposed amendment  adds  single‐family homes  at  the density of  two dwelling units per  acre  (2 DU/acre), which is similar to densities associated with Lakes of Windermere subdivision located directly south of the subject site, next to an existing townhome development (Oasis Cove). The properties across the  street  from  the  subject  site  also  recently obtained  Estate District  (ED)  SAP designation  (case #2014‐1‐A‐1‐2), while other four properties along Reams Road are undergoing a FLUM Amendment process to get the SAP designation of Village Home District (VHD).   

Another planning concept essential to implementation of the Horizon West vision is preservation of greenbelts  to  create  Village  edges.  Future  Land  Use  Element  Policies  FLU4.1.1,  FLU4.5.1,  and FLU4.5.6  outline  general  greenbelt  requirements,  such  as  their  function  and  width,  as  well  as greenbelt  requirements  specific  to Lakeside Village. More  specifically,  the policies  state  that each village shall have a well‐defined edge (greenbelts or wildlife corridors) permanently protected from development; greenbelts must meet minimum and average width standards, which are set at 300 feet and 500 feet, respectively; and, in Lakeside Village, greenbelt shall be provided by utilizing the environmental  systems  connecting  Lake  Speer  with  the  ecosystems  within  Reedy  Creek Improvement  District  on  the  west  and  south.  Greenbelt  requirements  listed  in  the  above‐cited policies were made to discourage sprawl by creating a definable Village and to provide a permanent undeveloped edge.  

The Greenbelt system that the subject property is part of is the largest in Horizon West, ranging in width between 3,000 feet along Ficquette Road, which  is the village boundary between the Village of Bridgewater and the Lakeside Village, and more than 6,500 feet at its widest point. The Greenbelt buffer provided along Reams Road far exceeds the minimum and average width standards set forth by the Future Land Use Element Policy FLU4.5.1, and the existing Greenbelt (GB) designation of the subject  properties, while meeting  the  intent  of  Future  Land  Use  Element  Policies  FLU4.1.1  and FLU4.5.6, exceeds the Village greenbelt requirements set in Policy FLU4.5.1. It should be noted that during the 2nd community meeting the applicant stated that the majority of the subject site will be preserved  (~87%), with only 41.5 acres out of 306.8  total acres proposed  to be developed at  the density of 2 DU/acre. The applicant has also suggested that, at the time of development, the existing

wetlands on  the property  could potentially be enhanced  to  create a better overall ecosystem on site.  

Reams Road Corridor Study Area.  In 2013, the Small Area Study that resulted  in the staff‐initiated amendment establishing the Reams Road Corridor Study Area was conducted. The Study aimed at determining the feasibility of changing the Lakeside Village SAP designation from Upland Greenbelt (GB) to some of the residential SAP designations established by Comprehensive Plan policies related to Horizon West. The Study included 28 properties totaling 749 acres located along Reams Road, of which approximately less than 200 acres were designated as Greenbelts (GB) at that time. Together, the properties  included  in  the  study area  represented  the  largest and widest greenbelt  system  in Horizon West.  The  Small  Area  Study  indicated  that most  of  the  properties  in  the  Lake  Reams Neighborhood of the Lakeside Village have already been developed or approved for development, and, as approved,  the  Lake Reams Neighborhood  falls  short of  the planned maximum number of units. The study concluded  that  the proposed conversion of properties  included  in  the Small Area Study  from  the existing Greenbelt  (GB) designation  to a  residential designation will  contribute  to increasing densities within the Lakeside Village to better meet planned maximums. It will also more accurately reflect recent changes in the surrounding area and its transition to more urban and dense uses. 

As  a  result  of  that  study,  staff  initiated  a  map  and  text  amendment  (Case  #2015‐1‐B‐FLUE‐4 scheduled for the BCC adoption hearing on July 28, 2015) that establishes the Reams Road Corridor Study  Area    (proposed  new  Future  Land  Use  Policy  FLU4.5.4.1)  in  Lakeside  Village  in  order  to achieve  the mix of  residential uses and  to provide a  residential  transition  zone within  the  largest greenbelt system  in Horizon West. The proposed amendment  is consistent with  the  requirements for Future Land Use Map (FLUM) Amendments within the Reams Road Corridor Study Area that are being  established  in  the  proposed  Policy  FLU4.5.4.1.  First,  the  subject  site  is  located within  the Corridor Study Area, and it is the largest parcel that is part of the Study Area. Second, the proposal is for  a  residential  land use on  a portion of  the  subject  site  that  is  currently designated  as Upland Greenbelt (GB) on the Lakeside Village SAP. Finally, the maximum residential density associated with the requested Estate District (ED) designation is two dwelling units per acre (2 DU/ac), which is well below  the maximum  residential  density  of  6  DU/acre  considered  to  be  appropriate  within  the Corridor Study Area.  

To  summarize,  the  proposed  amendment  appears  to  be  consistent  with  founding  principles  of Horizon West and ensures  that  the  intent of  the newly proposed Future Land Use Element Policy FLU4.5.4.1,  which  provides  a  residential  transition  zone  within  the  largest  greenbelt  system  in Horizon West while protecting the local environmental systems, is still being met.  

Compatibility 

The  proposed  Future  Land  Use  Map  (FLUM)  Amendment  appears  to  be  compatible  with  the development trends in the surrounding area.   The Orange  County  Comprehensive  Plan  requires  all  FLUM  Amendments  to  be  compatible with existing neighborhoods and surrounding uses. More specifically, Future Land Use Element Policies FLU1.4.2 and FLU8.2.1  require  land use changes  to be compatible with  the existing character and evolving development trends  in the area. The subject property  is surrounded by vacant residential parcels, several  estate homes, Oasis Cove townhome development and an existing church (both are vested  developments),  and  two  subdivisions  –  one,    Lakes  of Windermere  subdivision,  located directly to the south of the subject site, and another – Lake Sawyer subdivision, located east of the

subject  site  and  separated  from  it  by  an  existing  wetland.  The  existing  and  proposed  SAP designations  of  the  surrounding  properties  are  Estate District  (ED),  Vested Development,  Village Home District (VHD), Greenbelt (GB), and Wetland/Conservation (CONS). The proposed amendment would  result  in  development  of  up  to  75  single‐family  dwelling  units, which  is  compatible with housing types already in existence in the immediate vicinity of the subject site.  

 In accordance with Future Land Use Policy FLU8.2.11, which states that compatibility may also be determined by the design attributes of a project and its urban form, the proposed request for Estate District  (ED)  designation  would  have  to  comply with  site  development  standards  established  in Section 38‐1385 of the Orange County Land Development Code. These standards establish, among other requirements, residential density of two dwelling units per acre (2 DU/acre) and a minimum average  lot size of 10,000 square feet that are compatible with  larger  lot residential estate homes currently  in  existence  nearby.  Therefore,  the  size  and  character  of  the  proposed  residential development associated with this request will be compatible with the surrounding uses.   In addition,  in accordance with  the newly proposed Policy FLU4.5.4.1,  the  future development on the  subject  site  will  have  to  meet  a  requirement  for  provision  of  cross‐access  to  adjacent developments and connectivity of recreational facilities, which will further its compatibility with the surrounding  neighborhoods  by  allowing  for  a  cohesive  development  approach,  and  it might  also help address  issues of access to the surrounding existing communities that was brought up during the community meetings for the project. 

Public Facilities and Services Environmental. The developable area of the subject property is limited by the presence of extensivewetlands.  The property was  included  in  the Conservation Area Determination  (CAD  98‐045),  andsubsequent modifications, completed for the Lake Reams Neighborhood Planned Development (PD).Approval of this request does not authorize any direct or  indirect  impacts to conservation areas orprotective buffers. 

Until wetland permitting  is  complete,  the developable acreage  is  the gross acreage  less wetlandsand surface waters. Any plan showing development  in a wetland area without Orange County andother jurisdictional governmental agency wetland permits is speculative and may not be approved. 

The removal, alteration or encroachment within a Class I Conservation Area shall only be allowed incases where: no other  feasible or practical  alternatives exist,  impacts  are unavoidable  to  allow  areasonable use of the land, or where there is an overriding public benefit, as determined before theOrange County Board of County Commissioners. 

Development of  the subject property shall comply with all state and  federal  regulations  regardingwildlife or plants  listed as endangered,  threatened, or species of special concern. The applicant  isresponsible  to determine  the presence of  listed  species  and obtain  any  required habitat permitsfrom  the  U.S.  Fish  and  Wildlife  Service  (FWS)  and/or  the  Florida  Fish  &  Wildlife  ConservationCommission (FWC).  

Transportation.  The  proposed  use  (analysis  is  based  on  the  previously  submitted  development program of 140 single family dwelling units; this program has since been reduced) will generate 142 pm peak hour trips resulting  in a net  increase of 127 pm peak hour trips. The proposed use of 75 single‐family homes will generate 81 pm peak hour trips resulting  in a net  increase of 64 pm peak hour trips. Analysis of existing pm peak hour conditions indicates that all roadway segments within the project  impact area currently operate at an acceptable  level of service except Winter Garden‐

Vineland  Road  from  Tilden  Road  to  Ficquette  Road  Ficquette  Road  from  Reams  Road  to Winter Garden‐Vineland Road and Reams Road from Lake Hancock Road to Cast Drive.  

The short term or year 2020 analysis was based on daily conditions. The analysis needs to be revised to reflect PM peak conditions based on reasonable annual growth rates. A minimal 1% growth rate was applied to project future traffic conditions, which  is not acceptable since the traffic growth on the adjacent study roadways show annual growths of 6.33% and 9.27%. At a minimum, the growth rate should be consistent among the adjacent roadways.  In addition, the trip distribution needs to be  verified on  the  roadway  segment between  the north property boundary  and  the northbound segment of Ficquette Road. 

The long term or year 2040 analysis also needs to be updated to include pm peak hour conditions. In addition, where the 2040 model traffic volumes are  less than existing traffic volumes, a projection based on historical growth patterns should be used. Table 6 in the report needs to be revised.  

Overall,  the  transportation  facilities  analysis  has  not  demonstrated  that  the  propose  land  use change will not  significantly  impact  the  transportation network within  the project  impact area. A revised study is required.  

The short term or year 2020 roadway volumes were projected using historical growth rates based on data obtained  from Orange County’s  traffic database. Analysis of  the projected  traffic on  the area’s transportation network  indicates that the segments of Reams Road and Ficquette Road will continue to operate below the adopted level of service with and without the proposed amendment 

Analysis of  long  term or year 2030 conditions which  included all planned  roadway  improvements within the project impact area indicated that all roadways segments are projected to operate within the adopted level of service standard.  

The planned roadway  inmprovements within the  impact area of the proposed amendment  include the following: 

Ficquette Road – Ficquette Road  from Overstreet Road  to Winter Garden‐Vineland Road. This roadway is planned to be widened from 2 to 4 lanes. Construction is scheduled to be completed July 2016. 

Reams  Road  from  Old  Reams  Road  to  Lake  Hancock  Road.  This  roadway  is  planned  to  be widened to 4 lanes. This is a planned partnership project, and it is included in the County’s 2030 Long Range Transportation Plan. 

Seidel  Road  –  Planned  roadway  improvement  to  widen  to  4  lanes  from  Avalon  Road  to Summerlake Boulevard. This is a planned partnership project, and it is included in the County’s 2030 Long Range Transportation Plan. 

It should be noted that, per the 2005 Reams Road Study, right‐of‐way  is required from this project for  the  future  widening  of  Reams  Road.  The  applicant  will  be  required  to  coordinate  with  the County’s Road Agreement  Committee  regarding  the  donation  of  right‐of‐way. A  road  agreement detailing the terms and conditions of the right‐of‐way donation for the widening of Reams Road will be required.  

Final permitting on the subject site will be subject to further review and approval from the County’s Development Review Committee  (DRC), as well as an assessment of  roadway capacity constraints based on  the Transportation Concurrency Management System. The applicant will be  required  to mitigate any deficiencies that may occur from the proposed development.

FLU1.4.2 Orange  County  shall  ensure  that  land  use  changes  are  compatible with  and  serve  existing neighborhoods. 

 FLU4.1.1  General Village Principles. Each Village Specific Area Plan (SAP) shall be designed based on an 

urban  development  pattern,  which  encourages  the  formation  of  a  suburban  village  while ensuring the provision of adequate public facilities and services concurrent with development and protection of environmental quality. 

A. Planning  for  the Village  shall be  in  the  form of complete and  integrated neighborhoods containing housing,  shops, workplaces,  schools, parks and civic  facilities essential  to  the daily life of the Village residents. 

B. Village size shall be designed so that housing  is generally within a 1.2 mile radius of the Village  Center  (shops,  services  and  other  activities).  This  radius may  be  relaxed where natural or community facilities and services interrupt the design.  

C. A Village shall contain a diversity of housing types to enable citizens from a wide range of economic levels and age groups to live within its boundaries.  

D. Wherever possible, as many activities as possible shall be  located within an easy walking distance of an existing or designated transit stop.  

E. The Village and each neighborhood shall have a center focus that combines commercial, civic,  cultural  and  recreational  uses. Higher  density  residential  development  should  be encouraged  in  proximity  to  these  centers,  with  the  highest  density/attached  housing encouraged in proximity to the Village Center.  

F. The Village shall contain an ample supply of specialized open space in the form of squares, greens and parks whose frequent use is encouraged through placement and design.  

G. Each  Village  shall  have  a  well‐defined  edge,  such  as  greenbelts  or  wildlife  corridors permanently protected from development.  

H. Local and collector streets, pedestrian paths and bike paths shall contribute to a system of fully connected and interesting routes from individual neighborhoods to the Village Center and to other villages. Their design should encourage pedestrian and bicycle use by being spatially defined by buildings, trees, and lighting; and by discouraging high speed traffic.  

I. Wherever  possible,  the  natural  terrain,  drainage  and  vegetation  of  the  area  shall  be preserved with superior examples contained within parks or greenbelts.  

J. The  Village  Center  shall  be  designed  to  encourage  and  accommodate  linkage with  the regional transit system.  

 FLU4.1.5  Neighborhood  Development.  Residential  neighborhoods  shall  offer  neighborhood  facilities 

and  services  including  passive  and  active  recreation  facilities,  school  sites,  sidewalks  and bikeways. Each neighborhood  shall contain a Neighborhood Center as a central public  focal point consisting of an elementary school site, a minimum five (5) acre park in conjunction with the elementary school and may include other public facilities such as churches or community center  or  neighborhood  commercial  uses  as  described  in  FLU4.1.6.  The  development  of  a

variety of lot sizes and housing types is encouraged with generally higher densities located in proximity to the village center and neighborhood center (focal point). Public open space shall be provided within each neighborhood. Where physically possible, each neighborhood shall be designed so that most housing units are within a 1/2 mile radius of the Neighborhood Center. 

 FLU4.5.1  Village Greenbelts.    In addition  to requirements  for  formal parks and neighborhood greens, 

greenbelts surrounding each Village and the Town Center averaging 500 feet in width shall be required  at  the  perimeter  of  each  Village.  This  greenbelt must  be  provided  to  discourage sprawl by creating a definable Village and provide a permanent undeveloped edge, except as set  forth  in  FLU4.3.2,  so  that  planning  a  Village  within  limited  spaces  takes  on meaning. Topography  and  other  physical  features may  allow  this width  to  be  reduced where  visual separation can be accomplished with less distance. Where it may be beneficial to concentrate the acreage to enhance wildlife corridors, wetland connections, or preserve valuable uplands and protect sites critical for Floridian Aquifer protection the greenbelt may be concentrated in one  section  of  the  Village  Perimeter.  In  no  case  shall  the  greenbelt  separation  between villages  be  less  than  300  feet.  Subject  to  subdivision  regulations  and  conservation  area protection  requirements, access drives and bicycle/pedestrian paths may be allowed within the  greenbelt/buffer  to  connect  properties  that  would  otherwise  be  denied  reasonable access.  Development  standards  for  access  drives  and  pedestrian/bicycle  paths  through greenbelt/buffer shall be addressed in the Village and Town Center Development Codes. 

 FLU4.5.4.1 Reams Road Corridor Study Area. In Lakeside Village, the Reams Road Corridor Study Area is 

established  in  recognition  of  the  changing  character  of  properties  fronting  Reams  Road, increased densities  in the area, and the area’s proximity to a major employment center. The Corridor  Study  Area  is  limited  to  several  properties  located  along  Reams  Road,  which, combined, constitute the largest greenbelt system in the Horizon West Special Planning Area that  separates  Lakeside  Village  and  Village  of  Bridgewater.  The  goal  of  establishing  the Corridor  Study Area  is  to  achieve  the mix of  residential uses  and desired minimum overall density of 5 DU/ac within  the Village and  to provide a residential  transition zone within  the largest greenbelt system while protecting the local environmental systems by connecting Lake Spear with  the ecosystem within Reedy Creek  Improvement District on  the west and south. The general principles and procedures for acquiring a residential  land use designation within the Corridor Study Area are as follows:  

The Reams Road Corridor Study Area boundary shall be depicted on the Lakeside Village Specific Area Plan (SAP).   

Uses on properties within the Corridor Study Area shall be limited to residential.

Staff Recommendation  

Make  a  finding of  consistency with  the Comprehensive  Plan  (see  Future  Land Use  Policies  FLU4.1.1, FLU4.5.1, and FLU4.5.6), determine that the amendment  is  in compliance, and TRANSMIT Amendment 2015‐2‐A‐1‐7 (fka 2015‐1‐S‐1‐1), Horizon West, Town Center Specific Area Plan (SAP) – Greenbelt (GB), and  Bridgewater  Village  Specific  Area  Plan  (SAP)  –  Townhome/Apartment  District  (THD), Wetland/Conservation  (CONS),  and Greenbelt  (GB)  to Horizon West,  Town  Center  Specific Area  Plan (SAP) – Corporate Campus Mixed Use (CCM‐3), Wetland/Conservation (CONS), and Greenbelt (GB). 

Analysis 

1. Background Development Program  

The subject site is located within the Horizon West sector plan boundary, and it is composed of four parcels  (one parcel  in  its entirety and portions of  the additional  three parcels)  split between  two Villages  –  Village  of  Bridgewater  and  Town  Center.  The  applicant  has  requested  to  change  the Specific  Area  Plan  (SAP)  designations  on  the  9.99‐acre  site  located  in  Horizon West  from  Town Center Specific Area Plan (SAP) – Greenbelt (GB), and Village of Bridgewater Specific Area Plan (SAP) – Townhome/Apartment District (THD), Wetland/Conservation (CONS), and Greenbelt (GB) to Town Center  Specific  Area  Plan  (SAP)  –  Corporate  Campus Mixed Use  (CCM‐3), Wetland/Conservation (CONS),  and Greenbelt  (GB). As  a  result  of  this  request,  the  Town  Center  SAP  boundary will  be moved to the east to incorporate all of the properties subject to this amendment.  

The property  is  currently part of  two Planned Developments  (PDs) – Hamlin PD  located  in Town Center SAP and Avalon Woods 1 PD,  located  in Village of Bridgewater SAP  (If  this amendment  is approved,  both  PDs  would  have  to  be  amended).  The  current  SAP  designations  allow  for development of twenty‐six (26) townhomes on the portion located within the Village of Bridgewater SAP,  and  three  (3)  single‐family  dwelling  units  on  the  portions  of  the  site  designated  as Upland Greenbelt. The proposed amendment does not add any additional entitlements, but rather seeks to spread the approved development program for Corporate Campus Mixed Use (CCM‐3), consisting of fifty (50) residential dwelling  units and 92,700 sq. ft. of non‐residential uses, over a larger area.   

The  subject  site  is  located  east  of  SR  429  and  south  of  New  Independence  Parkway,  and  is surrounded by orange  groves on  the north  and west,  and water  features,  stormwater  retention, vacant residential, and non‐agricultural acreage on the south and east.  

2. Project Analysis  

Consistency  The requested FLUM amendment appears to be consistent with the applicable Comprehensive Plan goals, objectives, and policies, which are specifically discussed in the paragraphs below.  

The Horizon West development is composed of five Villages and a Town Center, which are based on a number of key principles, including planning in a form of complete and integrated neighborhoods, diversity  of  housing  types,  preservation  of  open  space  and  natural  vegetation  of  the  area,  and creation of well‐defined  village  edges.  Future  Land Use  Element Policy  FLU4.1.1 outlines  general village  principles  and  states  that  each  Village  shall  have  a  well‐defined  edge,  which  can  be accomplished through greenbelts and permanently protected wildlife corridors.  

Policies FLU4.5.1 and FLU4.5.6 provide both general and village‐specific Greenbelt requirements. In particular, Policy FLU4.5.1 states that greenbelts should average 500 feet  in width, and  in no case

Orange County Planning Division  DEO Transmittal Staff Report Janna Souvorova, AICP, Project Planner    Amendment 2015‐2‐A‐1‐7 (fka 2015‐1‐S‐1‐1) 

     

July 28, 2015  Commission District 1   Page | 31 

shall the greenbelt separation between villages be less than 300 feet. The existing greenbelt that is part  of  the  proposed  amendment  separates  the  Village  of  Bridgewater  and  Town  Center  and measures approximately 150  feet  in width, which does not meet  the  requirements of  the Future Land Use Element Policy FLU4.5.1. In fact, it appears that the large wetland system that runs west of the Signature Lakes Subdivision and east of  the approved Avalon Woods 1 PD  (located within  the Village of Bridgewater) also  serves as a buffer between  the Village of Bridgewater and  the Town Center,with  properties within  the  subdivision  developing  as  attached  and  detached  single‐family homes, while properties to the west of the wetland system are approved residential development similar in character to Town Center. Properties located to the east and north of the subject site are approved for 364 apartment units and twenty‐six  (26) townhomes. Therefore, the wetland system effectively serves as a well‐defined edge between the lower densities associated with the Village of Bridgewater and higher densities and  intensities envisioned  for  the Town Center. Figures 1 and 2 below show the location of the described wetland system. 

Figure 1. Existing Wetland System – Aerial 

 

Figure 2. Existing Wetland System – SAP Designations 

 

Furthermore,  Future  Land  Use  Element  Policy  FLU4.5.6  states  that  the  Greenbelt  requirement between the Village of Bridgewater and Town Center may be accomplished by alternative  location within  the  Village  of  Bridgewater,  as  opposed  to  the  location  depicted  on  the  respective  SAPs,

July 28, 2015  Commission District 1   Page | 32 

provided the alternative location is approved by the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) through a  privately‐initiated  map  amendment.  Policy  FLU4.5.6  furtherstates  that  the  proposals  for alternative  Greenbelt  locations  are  limited  to  parcels  adjacent  to  parcels  CCM‐1  and  CCM‐3,  as depicted on the Town Center SAP. The proposed amendment meets this requirement for alternative Greenbelt  location,  as  the  subject  site  is  adjacent  to  the  Corporate  Campus Mixed Use  (CCM‐3) parcel on its east side. Policy FLU4.5.6 goes on to outline criteria for alternative Greenbelt location, including provision of a similar degree of physical separation between the Village of Bridgewater and Town  Center,  minimizing  impacts  to  adjacent  property  owners,  and  inclusion  of  upland  areas, among others.  

If the proposed amendment is approved, the large wetland system, which measures approximately 365  feet  in width, will serve as a well‐defined edge between the Village of Bridgewater and Town Center. The applicant has agreed to provide a 20‐foot Greenbelt buffer that, combined with of 110‐foot  right‐of‐way of New  Independence Parkway, will serve as a separator between  the Village of Bridgewater and Town Center to the north of the subject site. The applicant indicated his intent to potentially  include  the  remainder of  the Avalon Woods 1 PD  (currently approved  for multi‐family units)  into the Town Center SAP at a  later date, which will further highlight the fact that the  large wetland  system,  rather  than  small pieces of Greenbelt‐designated areas, defines  the edge of  the Village of Bridgewater.  

In summary, the proposed amendment meets the  intent of the policies outlining requirements for Upland Greenbelts  in Horizon West Villages  and  provides  for  the  logical  extension  of mixed  use  development  associated with Corporate Campus Mixed Use designation of  the  Town Center  SAP onto  the  adjacent  properties,  while  still  maintaining  the  separation  between  the  Village  of Bridgewater and Town Center with a well‐defined edge.  

Compatibility 

The subject site is adjacent to Lake Hancock on the south side and a large wetland system, which will serve  as  a  buffer  between  the  Village  of  Bridgewater  and  Town  Center,  on  the  east  side.  The properties  located to the west of the subject site are designated as Corporate Campus Mixed Use (CCM‐3) on the Town Center SAP, and the proposed amendment seeks to expand this designation to the  subject  properties  without  increasing  the  current  entitlements  for  the  CCM‐3  parcel.  The properties to the north are part of the Avalon Woods 1 PD, and currently approved for 364 multi‐family  dwelling  units.  The  Corporate  Campus Mixed  Use  designation  allows  for  development  of townhomes,  apartments,  and  condominiums,  as  well  as  office  development  that  is  visually compatible with residential development (Sec. 38‐1390.56 of the Orange County Code). Therefore, the proposed development on  the  subject  site  is  compatible with approved development on  the adjacent properties.  

Public Facilities and Services Environmental.  The  subject  site  is  located  within  the  Avalon  Woods  1  and  Hamlin  Planned Developments  (PDs). Orange County Conservation Area Determinations  (CAD 11‐020 and CAD‐11‐08‐036) were completed that included the properties located within these PDs. 

No construction, clearing, filling, alteration or grading is allowed within or immediately adjacent to a conservation  area  without  first  obtaining  permission  from  the  Orange  County  Environmental Protection Division.  

Development of  the subject property shall comply with all state and  federal  regulations regarding endangered, threatened, or species of special concern. The applicant is responsible for determining

Transportation. The proposed amendment will result  in a net reduction of 24 pm peak hour trips. Based  on  the  Level  of  Service  information  from  the  County’s  Concurrency Management  System database dated 03/11/2015, there are no failing roadway segments within the project impact area, and capacity  is available to be encumbered. The planned roadway  improvements  in the vicinity of the subject site  include widening of Porter Road  to  four  lanes  from Hamlin Groves Trail to Avalon Road.  

The properties are subject to several road agreements,  including the Road Network Agreement for Town Center east, 1st Amendment to Town Center East Road Network Agreement, the Right‐of‐Way Conveyance  Agreement  between Orange  County  and  Susan D.  Shaw  and David Daniels  LLC,  the Hamlin  Groves  Trail  Northern  Extension  Term  Sheet,  and  the  Road  Network  Agreement  for  the Northerly Extension of Hamlin Groves Trail from New Independence Parkway to Tiny Road.  

Prior  to  approval  of  any  development,  the  applicant  will  be  required  to  demonstrate  that concurrency has been met and provide an Assignment of Vested Trips document with or prior  to Development Plan submittal. In addition, the Development Plan must include a trip matrix showing allocations by parcel identification number and development phase. 

3. Policy References  

 

FLU4.1.1  General Village Principles. Each Village Specific Area Plan (SAP) shall be designed based on  an  urban  development  pattern,  which  encourages  the  formation  of  a  suburban village while ensuring the provision of adequate public facilities and services concurrent with development and protection of environmental quality. 

A. Planning  for  the  Village  shall  be  in  the  form  of  complete  and  integrated neighborhoods  containing  housing,  shops,  workplaces,  schools,  parks  and  civic facilities essential to the daily life of the Village residents. 

B. Village size shall be designed so that housing is generally within a 1.2 mile radius of the Village Center (shops, services and other activities). This radius may be relaxed where natural or community facilities and services interrupt the design.  

C. A Village  shall  contain a diversity of housing  types  to enable  citizens  from a wide range of economic levels and age groups to live within its boundaries.  

D. Wherever possible,  as many  activities  as possible  shall be  located within  an  easy walking distance of an existing or designated transit stop.  

E. The  Village  and  each  neighborhood  shall  have  a  center  focus  that  combines commercial,  civic,  cultural  and  recreational  uses.  Higher  density  residential development should be encouraged  in proximity to these centers, with the highest density/attached housing encouraged in proximity to the Village Center.  

F. The Village shall contain an ample supply of specialized open space  in the  form of squares,  greens  and  parks whose  frequent  use  is  encouraged  through  placement and design.  

G. Each Village shall have a well‐defined edge, such as greenbelts or wildlife corridors

permanently protected from development.  

H. Local  and  collector  streets, pedestrian  paths  and  bike paths  shall  contribute  to  a system of fully connected and  interesting routes from  individual neighborhoods to the Village Center and  to other villages. Their design should encourage pedestrian and bicycle use by being  spatially defined by buildings,  trees, and  lighting; and by discouraging high‐speed traffic.  

I. Wherever possible, the natural terrain, drainage and vegetation of the area shall be preserved with superior examples contained within parks or greenbelts.  

J. The Village Center shall be designed  to encourage and accommodate  linkage with the regional transit system.  

FLU4.5.1  Village  Greenbelts.  In  addition  to  requirements  for  formal  parks  and  neighborhood greens, greenbelts surrounding each Village and the Town Center averaging 500 feet in width  shall  be  required  at  the  perimeter  of  each  Village.  This  greenbelt  must  be provided to discourage sprawl by creating a definable Village and provide a permanent undeveloped  edge,  except  as  set  forth  in  FLU4.3.2,  so  that  planning  a  Village within limited spaces takes on meaning. Topography and other physical features may allow this width  to be  reduced where visual  separation can be accomplished with  less distance. Where  it may be beneficial  to  concentrate  the  acreage  to enhance wildlife  corridors, wetland connections, or preserve valuable uplands and protect sites critical for Floridan Aquifer  protection,  the  greenbelt may  be  concentrated  in  one  section  of  the  Village Perimeter.  In no case shall the greenbelt separation between villages be  less than 300 feet. Subject to subdivision regulations and conservation area protection requirements, access drives and bicycle/pedestrian paths may be allowed within the greenbelt/buffer to connect properties that would otherwise be denied reasonable access. Development standards for access drives and pedestrian/bicycle paths through greenbelt/buffer shall be addressed in the Village and Town Center Development Codes.  

FLU4.5.6  Additional greenbelt requirements apply as follows: 

Lakeside Village The Village greenbelt requirement for Lakeside Village shall be provided by utilizing the environmental systems connecting Lake Spear with the ecosystem within Reedy Creek Improvement District on the west and south. 

Village of Bridgewater The Village greenbelt for the Village of Bridgewater shall provide for the connection of the  environmental  systems  connecting  Lake  Speer  and  Lake  Hancock  with  the ecosystem within Lakeside Village, and Reedy Creek Improvement District. 

Golf  courses  shall  be  permitted  to  form  a  portion  of  the  Village  of  Bridgewater greenbelt/buffer only where  it  can be demonstrated  that  such  greenbelt/buffer does not contain environmentally sensitive uplands and where it is not providing connectivity of  wetland/wildlife  corridors.  The  golf  course  within  the  greenbelt/buffer  shall  not supplant  any  requirement  to  provide  connectivity  of  wetland/wildlife  corridors,  or protection of environmentally significant uplands elsewhere within the Village. The golf course shall provide public open space as permanent Village edge. The golf course shall provide connectivity and access to other public open spaces within the Village. The golf

Village F The Village F greenbelt shall  include  the environmental systems connecting Saw Grass Lake  and  Reedy  Lake  and  the  wetlands  between  Lakeside  Village,  the  Village  of Bridgewater and the Reedy Creek Improvement District. 

Orange County National Golf Course shall be permitted to form a portion of the Village F greenbelt/buffer. 

Village I The Village I greenbelt shall include the environmental systems connecting Lake Oliver, Lake Gifford,  Lake Dennis  and Doe  Lake  and  the wetlands between  adjacent Horizon West  Villages  and  the  Reedy  Creek  Improvement  District.    The  extensive  wetlands, conservation areas and other designated greenbelt areas  shall provide a well‐defined edge  to  Village  I  and  shall  be  protected  from  the  influence  of  urban  development patterns. 

Town Center Town Center will develop at urban densities and intensities; therefore, upland greenbelt areas  shall  not  be  required  as  a  buffer  between  SR  429  and  development  in  Town Center. 

The  Upland  Greenbelt  requirement  between  the  Village  of  Bridgewater  and  Town Center  Specific Area  Plans  (SAP’s) may  be  accomplished  as  depicted  on  the  adopted Recommended Future Land Use Plan  (RFLUP)  for both SAP’s or by alternative  location within  the  Village  of  Bridgewater  as  may  be  approved  by  the  Board  of  County Commissioners  through  a  privately  initiated  map  amendment.  The  portion  of  the existing Urban Greenbelt for which an alternative may be proposed shall be  limited to adjacency with Parcels CCMU‐1 and CCMU‐3 depicted on the Town Center RFLUP.   An alternative location of the Upland Greenbelt shall:  

1. be consistent with the requirements of FLU4.5.1; 2. provide a similar degree of physical separation between the Village of Bridgewater 

and  Town  Center  SAP’s  as  provided  through  the  existing  Urban  Greenbelt designation; 

3. include upland areas;  4. be  fully  capable of accommodating any planned  trail or pedestrian/bicycle  facility 

intended for inclusion within the Upland Greenbelt; and 5. be  planned  to  minimize  impacts  to  adjoining  property  owners  that  may  be 

associated with any  type of public  facilities or private development  located within the Urban Greenbelt.

A. Background Horizon West,  located  in southwest Orange County,  is  the  first sector plan  in  the State of Florida. Future Land Use Element Goal FLU4 and associated objectives and policies establish a framework for implementation of the Village concept that Horizon West is based on. All Horizon West policies are organized by topic‐specific objectives, with Objective OBJ FLU4.3 being focused on transportation.  

The  Community  Planning  Act  (Laws  of  Florida  Chapter  2011‐139)  included  changes  to  Section 163.3245, Florida Statutes (F.S.), relative to the requirements for sector plans. Objective FLU4.3 and Policies FLU4.3.10, 4.3.11, and 4.3.12 are being updated to reflect the legislative changes to Section 163.3245(3)(b), F.S.,  relative  to  the  requirements  for a Detailed Specific Area Plan. To summarize, the proposed policy  changes update  the  transportation planning  requirements  for Village  I  to be consistent with  those  of  the  other  villages within Horizon West.  The  proposed  amendment  also corrects scrivener errors for consistency with the original Stipulated Settlement Agreement between the County and the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. 

 

B.  Policy Amendments 

Following are the policy changes proposed by this amendment.  The proposed policy changes are shown in underline/strikethrough format.  Staff recommends transmittal of the amendment.    

 

OBJ FLU4.3 TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM. Within each SAP, there shall be a balanced transportation system  that  offers,  with  equal  priority,  multiple  transportation  options.  This  will include  local  and  regional  transit  options,  bicycle  and  pedestrian  ways,  and  both higher speed thoroughfares and lower speed local roads for automobiles.  

FLU4.3.10  Village I.  Consistent with Section 163.3245(3)(b)43. and 6., Florida Statutes (F.S.), prior to commencing development beyond Phase I per Table 7.5 of the Village I Specific Area Plan, Village I developers/owners will reassess the projected cumulative transportation impacts of Village I and demonstrate that any significant and adverse impacts, including impacts  outside  Orange  County’s  jurisdiction,  will  be  mitigated  to  meet  Rule  9J‐2, Florida  Administrative  Code,  requirements.  The  SAP  will  be  amended  pursuant  to Section  163.3184,  F.S.,  to  reflect  any  improvements  needed  consistent with  Section 163.3245(3)(b)4., F.S. Development of Phase I consistent with Table 7.5 of the Village I Specific Area Plan, adopted by  the Board of County Commissioners on  June 10, 2008, may continue beyond through 2013 upon the effectiveness of the adopted amendment.  Development beyond year 2015 in Phase I shall not commence without a Road Network Agreement and unless public  facilities are demonstrated  to be available or planned  to be available  in a  financially  feasible manner  in Orange County’s Capital  Improvements Element as  these  terms are defined  in consistent with Sections 163.3164(24) and  (32) 163.3245(3)(b)6. and Section 163.3164(38), Florida Statutes F.S.  

FLU4.3.11  In order to account for extra‐jurisdictional transportation impacts, for development that otherwise would  be  subject  to  the  provisions  of  Section  380.06,  F.S.,  except  for  the exemption set forth  in Section 163.3245, Florida Statutes F.S., the County may require, in  all  villages  except  Village  H, in  addition  to  the  requirements  of  Future  Land  Use Element FLU4.1.8 IV 2.b., monitoring and modeling for transportation facilities impacted

Overview of Project:

The applicant’s request is to amend the Horizon West Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP) designation on Parcel 45, a 24.85-acre parcel, from Apartment District (APT) and Conservation/Wetland to Village Home District (VHD) and Conservation/Wetland, with the approved Conservation/Wetland area not being modified. This request would reduce the approved density from 25 dwelling units per net-net developable acre to 7.5 dwelling units per net-net developable acre.

As this parcel is part of the larger Springhill PD, a Change Determination Request will also be required in the future.

Meeting Summary:

Mr. Thorp opened the meeting at 6:05 p.m. with introductions of the Planning staff, Commissioner Boyd, and the applicant, Dana Boyte of Dewberry, to the people in attendance. Mr. Thorp then proceeded with a review of the applicant’s request to change the Apartment District (APT) area on Parcel 45 in Horizon West Village H to Village Home District (VHD), while also explaining that the Wetland/Conservation area will not be modified with this request. Mr. Thorp explained what this meant in regards to the development of the property, and Ms. Boyte also included their intent of this request, as the applicant believed that the Apartment District was unfit for this parcel due to the property location.

Mr. Thorp explained the approval timeframe and noted that the transmittal hearings will be on June 18, 2015 for the Planning and Zoning Commission/Local Planning Agency and July 28, 2015 for the Board of County Commissioners. The adoption hearings were noted for October 15, 2015 for the Planning and Zoning Commission/Local Planning Agency and November 10, 2015 for the Board of County Commissioners. It was also stated by Ms. Boyte that the property will later come through with a rezoning and change to the approved land use plan, and it will run concurrently towards the end of the approval process for this property. Mr. Thorp explained that this property was part of the previously approved Springhill Planned Development and that is why the Land Use Plan will need to be changed to accommodate this request.

A question was asked whether or not there were wetlands on the property, and Mr. Thorp answered that yes, there were wetlands, and the Wetland/Conservation designation on the map will not be changing. Another question was asked regarding the number of units to be built on the property. Mr. Thorp responded that currently, with the allowable density, up to 285 dwelling units could be constructed; with the proposed change, the reduced density will allow for up to 85 dwelling units to be built. Ms. Boyte also recited the size of the parcel for clarification.

An additional question was posed regarding which elementary school will students go to and what the timeframe for development will be. Ms. Boyte responded with possibly Bridgewater and Commissioner Boyd responded with a review of all of the planned and proposed schools in the area. He also noted that Orange County Public Schools have the ultimate say in where students will be placed and suggested contacting them for further details. Mr. Thorp also noted that Village H, and specifically the Springhill PD, has an elementary school parcel on the map near the subject parcel and that there may be a school there, if and when the subject parcel is developed. Ms. Boyte also stated that there is no current timeframe for the development of this parcel, and the property owner is only doing entitlement work at this time.

The last question was asked regarding the inclusion of native versus non-native landscaping in development. Commissioner Boyd responded that there are no current regulations regarding the inclusion of native, “Florida Friendly” landscaping. Mr. Thorp aladded that the Planning Division is working with developers to encourage Florida Friendly landscaping in the development plans of Planned Developments.

Mr. Thorp closed the meeting with a review of the timeframe of the approval process of this amendment. No additional questions were asked.

The meeting adjourned at approximately 6:25 p.m. The overall tone of the meeting was NEUTRAL.

The applicant proposes up to 75 single-family residential dwelling units. NOTE: the original proposal was to change the Future Land Use designation to Horizon West, Lakeside Village SAP – Village Home District (VHD) and Wetland/Conservation (CONS) to allow for development of up to 284 single-family dwelling units. This proposal was amended by the applicant after the 1st Community Meeting to address some of the concerns brought up at the meeting.

Meeting #1 Summary (May 11, 2015): The meeting began at 6:00 PM. Diana Almodovar, with Orange County Development Engineering Division, introduced Commissioner Boyd, gave a brief overview of the proposal and explained the CP amendment process, including the schedule for the LPA and BCC public hearings. The applicant, Mr. Hall, then explained the proposal. Area residents had the following questions and comments: Residents in attendance voiced numerous concerns related to potential development of wetlands, environmental conditions on the property, presence of wildlife habitat, preservation of wildlife corridors, and the proposed development intensity on lands currently designation as Greenbelt and Wetland/Conservation. The applicant, Jim Hall, clarified that the proposed development will only occur on the upland (dry) portions of the property, and the wetlands will not be affected. He also displayed a map identifying the uplands and indicated that uplands account for less than a quarter of the total site, or about 70 acres. Questions were raised about soils conditions, potential flood issues, presence of a bold eagle nest on site, the timing of a built-out, improved access from surrounding neighborhoods, lack of supporting infrastructure (schools, roads), and how the nearby properties will be affected by the proposed development. Mr. Hall replied that timing has not yet been determined, and it is likely to become more clear after the transmittal (if this request is transmitted). One of the residents, who identified himself as an environmental expert, noted that there are more than 100 species of birds in the area (including bold eagle), black bears, and Florida panthers; additionally, water impacts of the proposed development could also be significant. He mentioned that a wildlife crossing sign was recently installed on Reams Road, near the subject site, and a crossing signal should also be put in to alert the drivers of this crossing. The applicant replied that additional environmental testing is being done on the property, and this application will be adjusted based on the comments received from the community.

As a result, Commissioner Boyd proposed a second community meeting to be held before the June 18 LPA transmittal public hearing to give the applicant time to bring additional information to the community. The meeting adjourned at approximately 8:00 PM. The overall response from the community was NEGATIVE. Meeting #2 Summary (June 4, 2015): The meeting began at 6:07 PM. Janna Souvorova, with Orange County Planning Division, introduced District 1 Commissioner Scott Boyd, his aide Diana Garcia, PZC Commissioner James Dunn, Orange County and OCPS staff, and the applicant. Ms. Souvorova gave a brief overview of the proposal and explained the CP amendment process, including the schedule for the LPA and BCC public hearings. She highlighted the reason for the second meeting, to address some of the residents’ concerns brought up during the 1st community meeting and to provide additional information prior to the first public hearing, June 18 with the LPA. Ms. Souvorova then introduced the applicant, Jim Hall. Mr. Hall summarized the proposal and explained that the originally proposed development

Page 3 of 4

program for the subject site was significantly reduced to address concerns related to the amount of the proposed development, its impacts on the wetland systems present on site, preservation of wildlife habitat, and potential impacts on the surrounding residential developments. He showed a map depicting upland areas that are proposed to be developed and comparing them to the original proposal. Mr. Hall stated the portion of the site’s upland proposed to be developed was reduced to ~41 acres (from 70.8 acres), and the proposed number of units was reduced from 284 to 75 single-family residential units. He also highlighted the fact that the majority of the subject site – about 87%, will be preserved, and it will not be developed. Additionally, Mr. Hall noted that the proposed access to this development will be from Reams Road. Area residents had the following questions and comments: Residents inquired about potential future development of a wetland on site and if some assurances could be given that the rest of the property will not be developed later (such as designating it as a conservation easement). The applicant and John Geiger, with Orange County Environmental Protection Division, responded that wetlands could potentially be developed if proper permits are obtained; however; in many cases it is very expensive and cost-prohibitive. The proposed connection between two upland areas on site will go though a wetland and will require an approved permit. Mr. Hall also stated that, if the property is developed, wetlands could be enhanced to become an eco system that is more diverse than it is today. Mr. Geiger stated that a Conservation Area Determination application was received for the subject site, and it will delineate on-site wetlands. He also added that, in some cases, upland buffers might be required to preserve a function of a wetland. One of the attendees noted that the FL Audubon society submitted a public record against the proposed request. Another set of questions related to transportation issues including an overall traffic situation on Reams Road, lack of sidewalks, safety and access issues, and timing of potential improvements. Renzo Nastasi, with Transportation Planning Division, stated that a number of transportation studies were done for the area, which identified potential future public/private partnership improvements. He also mentioned that portions of Reams Road are scheduled to be 4-laned, and addition intersection improvements are planned. Comm. Boyd added that, as new developments are being approved in the area, they are required to provide sidewalks and connections to the surrounding developments; however, there are still many missing links. Additional Comments/Questions:

• Will a stormwater pond be located on uplands? Applicant replied yes, there will be wet stormwater ponds.

• What is the nature of the proposed development? Need more details on what the applicant is trying to do.

• The Horizon West master plan is too old and does not reflect the reality. • Where would the kids go to school? OCPS staff replied – New Independence

Elementary School (opening in August 2015). • Can the County condemn a ROW for the public safety purposes? Staff replied that in

Horizon West ROW cost is capped at $22.5K; when condemned, this cost can drastically increase.

• As approvals are granted for properties along Reams Road, there have not been any roadway improvements. Why not plan for the roads first, before giving approvals for more residential units? Comm. Boyd replied that the County is currently studying

2015-2-A-5-1 82 3.3 miles 6 min. Optimal Service Ability: To provide optimal emergency services delivery, a property should be served by a primary fire station within 2 ½ miles or 5 minutes travel time. The area identified is outside of an optimal emergency services delivery area.

Insurability Information: The Public Protection Classification (PPC) of a property is determined by the Insurance Services Office, and not the Orange County Fire Rescue Department. Properties that are within 5 road miles of a fire station and within 1,000 feet of a fire hydrant are generally given a PPC of 4. Properties that do not have a fire station within 5 road miles are generally given a PPC of 10 and can prevent a property owner from receiving insurance and or at a much higher rate.

Amendment # 2015-2-A-1-1 (fka 2015-1-A-1-4) WITHDRAWN Crosland LUP FLU from: Horizon West Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP)- Estate District (ED) To: Horizon West Village H Specific Area Plan (SAP)- Estate District (ED) Owner: Hanover Hickory Nut, LLC Agent: Miranda Fitzgerald, Lowndes, Drosdick, Doster, Kantor & Reed, P.A. Parcels: 08-24-27-0000-00-002 Address: 10150 Avalon Rd. District: 1 Area: 67.10 gross acres EPD Comments: This property was previously reviewed for Comprehensive Plan Amendment #2008-1-A-1-3 and for the Crosland Land Use Plan (DRC #5037241). There are wetlands and surface waters located onsite, including a portion of Hickory Nut Lake. Orange County Conservation Area Determination CAD 07-056 was completed in 2007 that delineated the wetlands on site, but this determination expired in 2012. A new CAD application will need to be completed prior to requesting any Orange County permits or development approvals, consistent with Chapter 15, Article X Wetland Conservation Areas. Approval of this request does not authorize any direct or indirect impacts to conservation areas or protective buffers. The Normal High Water Elevation (NHWE) of Hickory Nut Lake was established at 101.5 feet NGVD 29 in the Lake Index of Orange County. Clearly label and indicate the NHWE of the lake on all development plans or permit applications, in addition to any wetland and setback lines. Until wetland permitting is complete, the developable acreage is the gross acreage less the wetlands and surface waters. Any plan showing development in a wetland area without Orange County and other jurisdictional governmental agency wetland permits is speculative and may not be approved. The removal, alteration or encroachment within a Class I Conservation Area shall only be allowed in cases where: no other feasible or practical alternatives exist, impacts are unavoidable to allow a reasonable use of the land, or where there is an overriding public benefit, as determined before the Orange County Board of County Commissioners. Development of the subject property shall comply with all state and federal regulations regarding wildlife or plants listed as endangered, threatened, or species of special concern. The applicant is responsible to determine the presence of listed species and obtain any required habitat permits from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and/or the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). This site may be suitable habitat for the sand skink and blue-tailed mole skink. Note that skink surveys are conducted annually during a specific time period between

area without Orange County and other jurisdictional governmental agency wetland permits is speculative and may not be approved. Conservation Area Impact Permits - The removal, alteration or encroachment within a Class I Conservation Area shall only be allowed in cases where: no other feasible or practical alternatives exist, impacts are unavoidable to allow a reasonable use of the land, or where there is an overriding public benefit, as determined before the Orange County Board of County Commissioners. Sensitive Ecological Considerations - This site is located adjacent to, but outside of, the geographical limits of the (Big) Econlockhatchee River Protection Ordinance area so those basin wide regulations do not apply. Habitat Protection Regulations - Development of the subject property shall comply with all state and federal regulations regarding wildlife or plants listed as endangered, threatened, or species of special concern. The applicant is responsible to determine the presence of listed species and obtain any required habitat permits from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and/or the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). Buried Waste - This property includes significantly large areas that include buried waste disposal. Plan approvals will be required to include notification to all purchasers, renters, leasees, and occupants of the former use of this property. FDEP Guidance Document - All development on this site shall comply with the guidelines established in the most recent edition of, “Guidance for Disturbance and Use of Old Closed Landfills or Waste Disposal Areas in Florida” published by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Developer’s Agreement - This site shall comply with the "Agreement Concerning Development of Cloyd Landfill" as approved by the Orange County Board of County Commissioners on June 10, 2008. Orange County Legal will determine if this document is still valid and in effect considering this proposed change determination to the previously approved plan. Susceptible populations - At this time EPD does not support any residential use (see exception below but no single family residential due to potential for ground disturbance), or any other uses that may be perceived as having the potential to increase the future risks to susceptible populations such as children, the elderly, or the infirmed on top of former landfills and waste disposal areas. This reflects a belief that the level of engineering controls that would be required to address those concerns, possibly including removal of all of the waste in a controlled manner, would be cost-prohibitive. However, if any owner/developer determines that it is financially feasible, following due diligence including consideration of: site geophysical challenges, potential of uneven settlement, development of a excavation and disposal plan to be approved by the FDEP and agreed to by EPD, gas vapor barriers under the buildings, long term gas monitoring and groundwater monitoring to be determined in coordination with FDEP,

stormwater management (removal of waste or lined ponds), utility distribution systems and the unique structural design features necessitated by construction on former landfill areas, then development on former waste disposal sites will be considered through the County development review processes. Landfill Gas Emissions – The applicant is directed to note that in, "Guidance for Disturbance and Use of Old Closed Landfills or Waste Disposal Areas in Florida" published by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection there is specific mention of landfill gas concerns including but not limited to: 6.0 Construction Over Waste-Filled Areas, 6.1 Cautions for Construction, 6.1(a) The Department strongly discourages the construction of residential structures over old waste-filled areas (this is if landfill gases are currently present or caused by disturbance activities) and 6.1(b) construction projects should consider potential impacts from combustible gas inside structures unless designed against gas intrusion. Well Restriction - The covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) shall include notification to potential purchasers, builders, tenants and Property Owner Associations of this development that neither potable wells nor irrigation wells using local groundwater will be allowed on site. Dewatering - Prior to any dewatering activities occurring on site, the applicant shall provide the Orange County Environmental Protection Division copies of the St. John’s River Water Management District and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection approved dewatering plans. Fugitive Dust Emissions - Site development activity shall comply with State recommended Best Management Practices to protect soils during clearing, earthwork and construction. Fugitive dust emissions shall not be allowed from any activity including: vehicular movement, transportation of materials, construction, alteration, loading, unloading, storing or handling; without taking reasonable precautions to prevent such emissions. Reasonable precautions include application of water, dust suppressants, and other measures defined in Orange County Code Chapter 15 Environmental Control, Article III Air Quality Control, Division 2 Rules, Section 15-89.1 Air Pollution Prohibited. Contamination Disturbance - No activity will be permitted on the site that may disturb, influence, or otherwise interfere with: areas of soil or groundwater contamination, or any remediation activities, or within the hydrological zone of influence of any contaminated area, unless prior approval has been obtained through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and such approval has been provided to the Environmental Protection Division (EPD) of Orange County. An owner/operator who exacerbates any existing contamination or does not properly dispose of any excavated contaminated media may become liable for some portion of the contamination pursuant to the provisions in section 376.308, F.S.

EPD comments for Amendments 2015-2-A-5-1 and 2015-2-A-5-2: Wetland Conservation Areas There are wetlands and surface waters located within the subject properties amounting to approximately 1,000 acres that will require protection per Orange County Code (OCC) Chapter 15, Article X Wetland Conservation Areas. Approval of this request does not authorize any direct or indirect impacts to conservation areas. Prior to any development plan or preliminary subdivision plan submittal, the Environmental Protection Division (EPD) will require a completed Conservation Area Determination (CAD). CAD 07-134 was completed for the properties located north of Lake Pickett Road. This determination is valid through February 11, 2018. All other properties will require completion of the CAD application process. [Reference OCC Chapter 34 Subdivision Regulations, Article IV Specifications for Plans and Plats, Section 34-131, Preliminary Subdivision Plan and Supporting Data, 34-131(d) Physical/environmental conditions, 34-131(d)(2) An approved conservation area determination. ] All development shall be consistent with the conservation element of the county comprehensive plan and the conservation regulations. [Reference OCC Chapter 30 Planning and Development, Article VIII Site Development, Division 1, Section 30-246 Conservation Areas.] All acreages regarding conservation areas and wetland buffers are considered approximate until finalized by a Conservation Area Determination (CAD) and a Conservation Area Impact (CAI) Permit. Every application for activity subject to Orange County Code Chapter 15 Environmental Control shall be reviewed to determine the functional significance, scarcity, replaceability, vulnerability and productivity of the habitat on the lands to be considered in both the pre- and post-development condition. The applicants are advised not to make financial decisions based upon a presumption of approved conservation encroachment by development within the wetland or the upland protective buffer areas. Any plan showing development in a wetland or protective upland buffer area without Orange County and other jurisdictional government agency wetland permits is speculative and may not be approved. The removal, alteration or encroachment within a Class I Conservation Area shall only be allowed in cases where: no other feasible or practical alternatives exist, impacts are unavoidable to allow a reasonable use of the land, or where there is an overriding public benefit, as determined before the Orange County Board of County Commissioners. [Reference OCC Chapter 15 Environmental Control, Article X Wetland Conservation Areas, subject to, but limited to, 15-396 Compensation required for unavoidable loss and 15-419 Evaluation Criteria.] Surface waters located on these properties include Lake Paxton, Lake Tanner, Corner Lake, a portion of the Big Econ River and unnamed tributaries. Clearly label and indicate the Normal High Water Elevation (NHWE) lines of the lakes on all development plans or permit applications, in addition to any wetland and setback lines. [Reference OCC Chapter 38 Zoning, Article VIII P-D Planned Development District, Division 1 Generally, Section 38-1206 Development Plan shall include identification of land and water bodies and show natural features. Reference OCC Chapter 34 Subdivision Regulations, Article IV Specifications for Plans and Plats, Section 34-131 Preliminary Subdivision Plan Supporting Data shall include information (identification and contour line) on the normal high water elevation.]

Econlockhatchee River Basin These properties are located within the geographical limits of the (Big) Econlockhatchee River Protection Ordinance. Basin-wide regulations apply which include but are not limited to, wetland buffers, habitat preservation and wildlife management, stormwater management, and landscaping with native plant species. [Reference OCC Chapter 15 Article XI Econlockhatchee River Protection, Section 15-442 Basin-wide regulations.] Habitat Protection Development of the subject property shall comply with all state and federal regulations pertaining to wildlife or plants that are listed as endangered, threatened, or species of special concern by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and/or the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). The Preliminary Environmental Assessment reports submitted with these requests indicated evidence of several protected wildlife species in the area such as gopher tortoise, Sherman's fox squirrel, American bald eagle, Florida sandhill crane, little blue heron and white ibis. It appears that portions of the plans have been identified as part of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Priority Ecological Greenway Network 2013. This project of the Florida Ecological Greenway Network (FEGN) identifies areas of opportunity for protecting a statewide network of ecological hubs and linkages designed to maintain large landscape-scale ecological functions including focal species habitat and ecosystem services throughout the state. The FEGN aggregates various data identifying areas of ecological significance from the Florida Natural Areas Inventory, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, existing and proposed conservation lands, and other relevant data. These data were combined to identify large, landscape-scale areas of ecological significance (ecological hubs), and a network of landscape linkages and corridors connecting the hubs into a statewide ecological greenways system (ecological greenways and wildlife corridors). Based on our experience with similar projects, developing potions of this area of ecological significance would diminish the functionality of the area as a greenway and move the land use from a state of higher sustainability to a state of lower sustainability in terms of the resources needed to sustain the lower state. Please provide reasonable assurance that the habitat and ecological function of this ecosystem will not be diminished as a result of the proposed development. Design Considerations The natural topography, soils and vegetation should be preserved and utilized, where possible through the careful location and design of all elements such as circulation ways, buildings, open space and drainage facilities. Designation and use of conservation areas must be consistent with adopted growth management policy. [Referencer OCC Chapter 38 Zoning. Article VIII PD Planned Development District, Division 2 General Site Development Standards, Section 38-1228.] Approval of this request does not constitute approval of a permit for the construction of boat docks (including but not limited to boardwalks or observation piers) or a boat ramp. Any person desiring to construct a boat dock or boat ramp within Unincorporated Orange County shall first apply for a permit prior to the installation. [A boat dock requires additional permitting under OCC Chapter

15, Article IX, Dock Construction. A boat ramp requires additional permitting under OCC Chapter 15, Article XV, Boat Ramps. Application shall be submitted to the Orange County Environmental Protection Division.] This site is adjacent to lands that are managed by the St Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD). The covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) shall contain notification to potential purchasers, builders or tenants of this development that the adjacent land use includes publicly managed property. The notice shall indicate that the adjacent property will require the use of resource management practices that may result in periodic temporary conditions that may limit outdoor activities. These practices will include, but not be limited to, ecological burning, pesticide and herbicide usage, exotic plant and animal removal, usage of heavy equipment and machinery, and other practices as may be deemed necessary for proper resource management. Development shall coordinate the proposed trail system with the SJRWMD to ensure that it connects with the trail system already established within the Econ Sandhills Conservation Area. Pollution Prevention Pollution abatement swales shall be provided and maintained upland of streams and canals and the NHWE on all lakes, inclusive of wetlands connected to lakes. If wetland protection buffers are present, then the swale shall be located upland of the buffer. Areas that drain away from lakes do not require a swale. [Reference OCC Chapter 34 Subdivision Regulations, Article IV Specifications for Plans and Plats, Section 34-132(c)(2). ] Portions of the Lake Pickett North and South development will discharge into an impaired water body. The Impaired Waters Rule, Chapter 62-303 of the Florida Administrative Code may increase the requirements for pollution abatement treatment of stormwater as part of future approvals of related Basin Management Action Plans currently in development by the state Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The applicant is advised to follow related legislation in order to assure compliance with future regulations. If on-site sewage treatment disposal systems (OSTDS) are installed, nutrients passing through septic drainfields shall be detected prior to their transport to the Econlockhatchee River basin, as well as other water bodies and wetlands in the vicinity of the project. The developer is responsible for addressing adverse impacts to existing water quality. The development shall include measures to prevent excess nutrients from entering water bodies via storm water run-off or base flow. Preventive measures that may be required by the Impaired Waters Rule through Basin Management Action Plans may include the County to require proper fertilizer management and the installation of curb inlet baskets to prevent entrained litter and other debris from entering the stormwater system. Some areas of the subject properties have a prior land use that may have resulted in petroleum spills, agricultural related contamination (including cattle operations), and fertilizer, pesticide or herbicide spillage. No activity will be permitted on the site that may disturb, influence or interfere with: areas of soil or groundwater contamination, any remediation activities, or within the hydrological zone of influence of the contaminated area, unless prior approval has been

EXISTING ECOLOGICAL CONDITIONS Vegetative Communities Vegetative and land use cover types were classified and mapped using the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Land Use, Cover and Forms Classification System (FLUCFCS), January 1999 (Figure 2). The limits of the onsite jurisdictional wetlands and surface waters were obtained from a combination of St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) GIS data, National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) GIS data and interpretation of high resolution aerial photography. The wetland and surface water boundaries have not been flagged in the field and have not been approved by any federal, state or county permitting agency. There are eleven (11) FLUCFCS classifications identified on the project site (Figure 2). A description along with acreage and percent cover of each classification type is provided below. FLUCFCS 310 – Non-forested Herbaceous Upland (0.92 acres) This FLUCFCS land use comprises 0.3% of the project area. These areas are typically dominated by prairie grasses including bluestem (Andropogon spp), wiregrass (Aristida spp.), and dropseed (Sporobolus spp.). Typical forbs found within this habitat include slender flattop goldenrod (Euthamia caroliniana), chaffhead (Carphephorus spp.), and gayfeather (Liatris spp.). Shrubs present within these areas include saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), gallberry (Ilex glabra), wax myrtle (Myrica cerifera), lyonia (Lyonia spp.), and winged sumac (Rhus copallinum). FLUCFCS 411 – Pine Flatwoods (68.14 acres) This FLUCFCS land use comprises 22.2% of the project area. Pine flatwoods is the dominant upland community within the property and is present along the west boundary. This community is typified by an open canopy of pine trees including slash pine (Pinus elliottii), longleaf pine (Pinus palustris), and loblolly pine (Pinus taeda). The understory is composed primarily of grass and forb species similar to those present within the non-forested herbaceous uplands described above and may include clustered or dense saw palmetto or other shrubs. FLUCFCS 434 – Upland Mixed Coniferous/Hardwood (2.11 acres) This FLUCFCS land use comprises 0.7% of the project area. It is typically dominated by a combination of pine and hardwood tree species including slash pine, longleaf pine, live oak (Quercus virginiana), laurel oak (Quercus laurifolia), southern magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora), and pignut hickory

(Carya glabra). The understory is often dominated by dense saw palmetto and may also include American beautyberry (Callicarpa americana) and winged sumac. FLUCFCS 617 – Mixed Wetland Hardwoods (6.27 acres) This FLUCFCS land use comprises 2.0% of the project area. This community is found along the eastern edge of the parcel. Within this habitat the canopy is dominated by a diverse mixture of wetland hardwood trees including red maple (Acer rubrum), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana), swamp tupelo (Nyssa sylvatica var. biflora), and American elm (Ulmus americana). Slash pine and bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) may be scattered throughout. Typical shrub species include wax myrtle, Virginia willow (Itea virginica), possumhaw (Viburnum nudum), and common buttonbush. Groundcover is typically dominated by ferns and other shade tolerant plant species. FLUCFCS 621 – Cypress (187.62 acres) This FLUCFCS land use comprises 61.2% of the project area. This habitat dominates the large central swamp within and immediately west of the property. It is dominated by bald-cypress, and minor associates in the canopy community may include red maple, swamp tupelo, and sweetbay. Typical shrub species include dahoon holly (Ilex cassine), common buttonbush, shiny lyonia (Lyonia lucida), and possumhaw. Typical groundcover includes herbaceous species tolerant of shade and high water levels such as royal fern (Osmunda regalis subsp. spectabilis), maidencane (Panicum hemitomon), golden club (Orontium aquaticum), and lizard’s tail (Saururus cernuus). FLUCFCS 625 – Wet Pine Flatwoods (11.54 acre) This FLUCFCS land use comprises less than 3.8% of the project area. Within the project area, these areas are found at the interface between cypress and pine flatwoods communities. They are dominated by pine, typically slash pine in this region of Florida. Common associates in the canopy community include loblolly bay (Gordonia lasianthus), red bay (Persea borbonia), sweetbay, and red maple. The understory is typically dominated by water tolerant grasses and forbs such as bushy bluestem (Andropogon glomeratus), wiregrass (Aristida stricta), and maidencane. Shrubs are generally sparse and may include shiny lyonia, shiny blueberry (Vaccinium myrsinites), wax myrtle, and Walter’s viburnum (Viburnum obovatum). FLUCFCS 646 – Mixed Scrub – Shrub Wetland (30.13 acres) This FLUCFCS land use comprises 9.8% of the project area. These areas are found in the northern portion of the parcel. They are typically dominated by a mixture of wetland shrubs including common buttonbush, wax myrtle, shiny lyonia, dahoon holly, possumhaw, and swamp dogwood (Cornus foemina). Disturbed areas may include Carolina willow (Salix caroliniana). On-site shrub wetlands include low to moderate densities of bald-cypress. Groundcover species typical of shrub wetland include arrowhead (Sagittaria spp.), pickerelweed (Pontederia cordata), and maidencane. Soils Based on the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey of Orange County, four (4) soil types are mapped on the project site (Figure 3). The mapped units include the following:

3 – Basinger fine sand, depressional (Hydric)

Page 103: TEMPLATE V06 - WITH APPROVED GRAPHICS library/planning... · (2015-2) to the Future Land ... Low Density Residential; LMDR - Low-Medium Density Residential; MDR - Medium Density Residential;

3

20 – Immokalee fine sand (Non-hydric) 41 – Samsula – Hontoon – Basinger association, depressional (Hydric) 44 – Smyrna fine sand (Non-hydric)

Basinger fine sand, depressional, and Samsula – Hontoon – Basinger association compose the majority of the site area, 44.11 acres and 203.43 acres, respectively. Although not considered hydric soil map units, Immokalee fine sand and Smyrna fine sand both may contain hydric soil inclusions. Hydric and non-hydric soil designations are based on the NRCS National List of Hydric Soils, April 2012. Wetlands and Surface Waters National Wetlands Inventories identify a total of 252.66 acres of jurisdictional wetlands located within the Developco property (Figure 4). Based on aerial interpretation as provided on the land use map, Figure 2, the estimated wetland area on the property is 235.56 acres. The final wetland area will be determined by field delineation of the wetland boundaries and will be contingent upon agency approval. Onsite wetlands and surface waters will be under the jurisdiction of SJRWMD, Army Corps of Engineers and Orange County Environmental Protection Division. Protected Wildlife and Plant Species A review of publically-available databases was conducted to determine the potential for the occurrence of protected species listed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Figure 5. The FNAI online Biodiversity Matrix database was searched to determine if there are any documented protected plant or wildlife species or critical habitats that may be located within or adjacent to the subject parcels. Results of this database query revealed no documented elements found within or adjacent to the subject parcels (Appendix A). The following paragraphs describe the protected species with the potential to occur onsite. Sherman's Fox Squirrel The Sherman's fox squirrel (Sciurus niger shermani) is listed as a Species of Special Concern by the FWC, but not listed by the USFWS. Fox squirrels were listed in the FNAI report as potentially occurring on site. Suitable habitat may be present within the pine flatwoods areas. Florida Mouse The Florida mouse (Podomys floridanus) is listed as an SSC by the FWC and was listed in the FNAI report as potentially occurring on site. The Florida mouse typically utilizes xeric upland communities where they inhabit gopher tortoise burrows. No xeric habitat is present within the project area, and it is unlikely the Florida mouse will occur on-site. Wood Stork The wood stork (Mycteria americana) is state and federally protected as Endangered and consultation with the USFWS is required for any proposed work that impacts wood stork core foraging habitat. The subject property is not located within Core Foraging Areas (CFA) for active wood stork

Page 104: TEMPLATE V06 - WITH APPROVED GRAPHICS library/planning... · (2015-2) to the Future Land ... Low Density Residential; LMDR - Low-Medium Density Residential; MDR - Medium Density Residential;

breeding colonies. However, the property provides excellent habitat, and it is likely wood storks utilize the site for foraging. Red-cockaded Woodpecker The red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis) is listed as Endangered by the USFWS and FWC. The project site is located within the USFWS red-cockaded woodpecker consultation area. The FWC Red-cockaded Woodpecker Nest Locator Database was reviewed to determine the proximity of recorded active red-cockaded woodpecker nests to the Developco property. According to the database, the closest red-cockaded woodpecker nest was located approximately 5.5 miles to the south. A field review of the site will be conducted to determine the present of red-cockaded woodpeckers within the pine flatwoods located within the project area. Snail Kite The snail kite (Rostrhamus sociabilis) is listed as Endangered by the FWC and USFWS. The subject property is located within the snail kite consultation area. Suitable habitat includes freshwater marshes and shallow wetlands with vegetated edges in which apple snails can be found. Habitat potentially exists onsite; however, it is unlikely snail kites utilize the project area due to the dense canopy cover. Also no snail kite nesting areas are recorded in Orange County. Florida scrub jay The Florida scrub-jay (Aphelocoma coerulescens) is listed as threatened by FWC and USFWS. The project area is located within the USFWS scrub-jay consultation area, but no scrub-jay habitat, consisting primarily of oak scrub, is located on-site. It is unlikely scrub-jays will be present within the project area. Audubon’s Crested Caracara Audubon’s crested caracara (Caracara cheriway audubonii) is listed as Threatened by the FWC and USFWS. The subject properties are not located within the caracara consultation area, and no suitable nesting habitat is located within the project area. Bald Eagle The bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is not listed by either the FWC or the USFWS but is protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. The FWC Bald Eagle Nest Locator Database was reviewed to determine the proximity of recorded active bald eagle nests to the Developco property. According to the database, the closest bald eagle nest was OR007, located approximately 1.5 miles to the north, see Figure 5. The USFWS indicates that all projects greater than 660 feet from a bald eagle nest tree do not require USFWS review. Florida Sandhill Crane The Florida sandhill crane is listed as Threatened by the FFWCC and is not listed by the USFWS. Sandhill cranes prefer to nest in shallow wetlands with maidencane or pickerelweed. Few, if any, wetland areas suitable for nesting occur within or adjacent to the project boundary. Florida Burrowing Owl The Florida burrowing owl is listed as a Species of Special Concern by the FFWCC and is not listed by the USFWS. Burrowing owls prefer dry prairie or Sandhill habitat with low canopy cover and

Page 105: TEMPLATE V06 - WITH APPROVED GRAPHICS library/planning... · (2015-2) to the Future Land ... Low Density Residential; LMDR - Low-Medium Density Residential; MDR - Medium Density Residential;

5

densely-vegetated, sandy ground. Habitats suitable for burrowing owls do not occur within or adjacent to the project boundary. Gopher Tortoise The gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) is listed as Threatened by the FWC, but not listed by the USFWS. It was listed by the FNAI report as potentially occurring within the project area. Although the dry sandy habitats preferred by gopher tortoises are not present within the project area, tortoises may still be found within the upland habitats located on-site. Eastern Indigo Snake The Eastern indigo snake (Drymarchon corais couperi) is listed as Threatened by the FWC and USFWS. Indigo snakes were also listed in the FNAI report as potentially occurring on site. Indigo snakes are a commensal species in gopher tortoise burrows. Indigo snakes utilize a wide range of habitats, and suitable habitat exists on-site. Florida Pine Snake The Florida pine snake (Pituophis melanoleucus mugitus) is listed as a Species of Special Concern by the FFWCC and is not listed by the USFWS. It was listed in the FNAI report as potentially occurring on site. The Florida pine snake prefers dry sandy soils with open canopies. Florida pine snakes often coexist with gopher tortoises and may be found within the uplands located on-site. Sand Skink and Blue-tailed Mole Skink The subject property is located within the sand skink (Neoseps reynoldsi) and blue-tailed mole skink (Eumeces egregious lividus) consultation area, and the property is above 82 feet mean sea level (MSL), the elevation above which sand skinks are generally found. However, no soils considered sand skink soils are located on-site. Therefore, sand skinks are not expected to utilize the property, based upon the sand skink survey protocol of the USFWS Species Conservation and Consultation Guide. The range of the blue-tailed mole skink is generally limited to the Lake Wales Ridge, and therefore is unlikely to be found within the project area. Gopher Frog The gopher frog (Lithobates capito) is listed as a Species of Special Concern by the FWC and is not listed by the USFWS. It was listed in the FNAI report as potentially occurring on site. The gopher frog utilizes sandy uplands that include isolated wetlands or large ponds within close proximity (~1 mile). Gopher frogs are known commensals of gopher tortoise burrows and will utilize other burrows or stump holes as a daytime refuge. Wading Bird Rookeries According to FWC data, no wading bird rookeries are located within or immediately adjacent to the project area. The closest recorded location of a wading bird colony, no. 612033, is mapped approximately 4.9 miles west of the properties, Figure 5. This rookery was last determined as “Active” during the 1970’s survey. No wading bird rookeries should be affected by the development of these properties. Listed Plant Species

Planned and Programmed Roadway Improvements: • SR 482/Sand Lake Road - Planned state roadway improvement to widen Sand Lake Road from

west of Turkey Lake Road to west of John Young Parkway to 6 lanes. Construction to be determined.

• International Drive – Planned roadway improvement to widen International Drive from Sand Lake Road to Kirkman Road to 6 lanes by 2030.

Right of Way Requirements: None Summary

• The allowable development based on the approved future land use will generate 2,034 pm peak hour trips

• The proposed use will generate 196 pm peak hour trips resulting in a net reduction of 1,838 pm peak hour trips.

• Analysis of existing pm peak hour conditions indicates multiple failing roadway segments within the project impact area. As the table indicates, the following roadways are currently operating below the adopted level of service:

a. Sand Lake Rd. from I-Drive to Kirkman Rd.

b. Turkey Lake Rd. from Sand Lake Commons Blvd. to Sand Lake Rd.

c. Wallace Rd. from Dr. Phillips Blvd. to Turkey Lake Rd.

d. Universal Blvd. from Sand Lake Rd. to Pointe Plaza Ave.

• The short term (2020) analysis indicates that the existing failing roadway segments continue to operate below the adopted level of service with and without the proposed amendment.

• The long term (2030) analysis indicate the same level of roadway deficiencies including International Drive from Sand Lake Road to Kirkman Road and Sand Lake Road from Turkey Lake Road to International Drive.

• Roadway deficiencies are projected for the short term and long term scenarios with and without the proposed amendment. In addition, trip generation estimates of the proposed land use amendment versus the currently approved land use result in a reduction of trips. Therefore, the proposed amendment will not adversely impact the area’s transportation facilities.

Final permitting of any development on this site will be subject to review and approval under capacity constraints of the county’s Transportation Concurrency Management System. Such approval will not exclude the possibility of a proportionate share payment in order to mitigate any transportation deficiencies. Finally, to ensure that there are no revisions to the proposed development beyond the analyzed use, the land use will be noted on the County’s Future Land Use Map or as a text amendment to the Comprehensive Policy Plan.

This study site is a 38-unit student village that houses boarding students attending the Lake Mary Preparatory School. Traffic counts we conducted from September 2 thru Spetember 8, 2014 when the facility was fully occupied. Based on the survey, this facility generates approximately 173 daily and 20 pm peak hour trips resulting in an average rate of 4.55 daily and .53 pm peak hour trips per unit. Using this surveyed rate, it is estimated that the proposed 65 unit student housing facility will generate 34 pm peak hour trips and 296 daily trips. It should be noted that all students living at the proposed facility will be restricted from owning or keeping personal cars at the facility.

Right of Way Requirements: None

Summary

• The maximum allowable development for this site is 2,000,000 square feet which the developer proposes to split evenly between office use and commercial use.

• The requested amendment will result in an additional 2,947 pm peak hour trips on the surrounding transportation network.

• Analysis of existing conditions indicates that all roadway segments currently operate at an acceptable level of service.

• Analysis of the short term or year 2020 conditions indicate the proposed amendment will impact several roadway segments within the project impact area. Chickasaw Trail from Valencia College Lane to Colonial Drive, Econlockhatchee Trail from Lake Underhill Road to Valencia College Lane and Valencia College Lane from the Central Florida Greeneway to Goldenrod Road are all projected to operate at Level of service F.

• In the long term or 2030 horizon year, the roadway network in the study area is projected to operate at adequate level of service except Colonial Drive and Chickasaw Trail.

• This parcel in located in the Alternative Mobility Area (AMA) and per Objective T.2.3.2 of the County’s comprehensive Plan, the proposed development is exempt from meeting transportation concurrency requirements. To assess the extent of the alternative transportation network within the project impact area, a review of these facilities was conducted in accordance with Policy 2.3.7 of the Comprehensive Plan to determine the availability of these alternative modes in the area. Based on this review, it was determined that the sidewalk network along the frontage of the site is incomplete and connections will be required at the time of site development. To accommodate bicyclists, on road bicycle lanes are present on the 4-lane section of Valencia College Lane to the east and on the SR408 spur connector to the south however, there are no bicycle lanes to the west of the site. Public transportation is available within a quarter mile walk distance. The site is served by Link 15 which travels along Valencia College Lane adjacent to the property and there is a bus stop located approximately 500 feet to the west of the site. There is also a stop on eastbound leg which is improved with a shelter, and bench. The west bound stop however, has no amenities and consists of a pole sign. Link 104 is also available at the nearby Community College campus.

MEMORANDUM April 3, 2015 Re: Spring Grove Village H Traffic Review for Comp Plan Amendment Project № 15-029

This analysis was conducted to support an application to amend the future land use designation of the Spring Grove property located on Avalon Road, south of Siedel Road, in Village H of Horizon West, as illustrated in Figure 1. Description The proposed amendment will modify the FLU designation of the property from PD-Apartment District to PD-Village Home District. The site is approximately 25 acres, of which the net developable area is 11.4 acres. The maximum allowable development under the current FLU designation is 285 multi-family dwelling units. Under the proposed FLU designation the maximum allowable development is 85 single family dwelling units. Therefore, the proposed amendment will significantly reduce the development density proposed at the site. Trip Generation The trip generation analysis was conducted using information published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in the Trip Generation Manual, 9th Edition. Table 1 summarizes the resulting trip generation analysis conducted. The ITE Trip Generation graphs are attached for reference.

Spring Grove Village H Traffic Review for Comp Plan Amendment Project №15-029 April 3, 2015 Page 2 of 2 The trip generation analysis reveals that the proposed amendment will significantly reduce the trip generation of the site. The daily trips are reduced from 1,850 trips to 904 trips, a 51% reduction. The peak hour trips are reduced from 174 trips to 91 trips, a 48% reduction. Based on this analysis, the proposed amendment will reduce the potential impact of the site on the surrounding transportation infrastructure. Therefore, no further capacity analysis is necessary for the proposed amendment. Road Agreement As the site undergoes additional approvals, the proposed development program will be subject to the Village H road network agreement to mitigate its capacity demands on the transportation network. This agreement replaces the typical concurrency process for development on the site. Therefore, the impact generated by the development is addressed through the development process. The first page of the road agreement is attached for identification/reference.

Introduction 

This  traffic study  is  for  the Comprehensive Plan Amendment associated with one parcel 

(27‐23‐27‐0000‐00‐020) within  Horizon West  in  Orange  County.    The  subject  parcel  is 

located  north  of  Reams  Road  and  east  of  Ficquette  Road  in  western  Orange  County, 

Florida.    Figure  1  shows  the  project  location.    Reams  Road will  provide  access  to  the 

parcels  from  the east and south while Ficquette Road will provide access  from the west 

and north. 

 

 

Study Area of Influence 

Consistent  with  Orange  County’s  methodology  for  transportation  analysis  for 

Comprehensive  Policy  Plan  Amendments,  the  primary  study  area  for  this  traffic 

assessment  includes  the directly  impacted  collectors or arterials, which, at  a minimum, 

includes a one mile radius around the project site.  The area includes each roadway where 

the  daily  project  trips  on  the  roadway  segments  are  greater  or  equal  to  3%  of  the 

minimum service volume at the adopted  level of service.   Based on this review, roadway 

segments that are within the traffic impact assessment area include the following:  

 

Ficquette Road from Winter Garden‐Vineland Road (CR 535) to Overstreet Road 

Ficquette Road from Overstreet Road to Lake Hancock Road 

Lake Hancock Road from Seidel road to Reams Road 

Overstreet Road from Ficquette Road to Londale Boulevard 

Overstreet Road from Londale Boulevard to Winter Garden‐Vineland Road

Analysis Results 

Per Orange  County  requirements,  a  transportation  analysis was  completed  for  existing 

conditions, five‐year conditions (Year 2020), and Year 2040 conditions.  The conclusions of 

this analysis are as follows: 

 

The proposed land use change will result in a net increase of 2,578 daily trips and 

251 PM peak trips in comparison to the currently approved land use. 

The existing conditions analysis shows  that all of  the  roadways within  the study 

area  of  influence  operate  within  the  acceptable  Level  of  Service  capacity 

standards and have excess capacity. 

The  five‐year analysis  shows  that all of  the  roadways within  the  study area are 

projected to operate within the acceptable Level of Service capacity standards. 

The Year 2040 analysis  shows  that all of  the  roadways within  the  study area of 

influence are projected to operate within the acceptable Level of Service capacity 

standards. 

 

The analysis assumptions and results are discussed in the remainder of this report.

Planned and Programmed Improvements 

Programmed  improvements  are  those with  funding  commitments within  the  next  five 

years.   According  to  the MetroPlan Orlando Transportation  Improvement Program  (TIP), 

the segment of Ficquette Road from Overstreet Road to Winter Garden‐Vineland Road (CR 

535) is scheduled to be widened from two lanes to four lanes in 2015. 

 

Planned improvements are those that fall outside the five‐year window but are identified 

in the MetroPlan Orlando Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP).  There are no roadways 

within the study area that are identified in the Cost Feasible Projects list.  The widening of 

Reams  Road  to  four  lanes  is  identified  on  the  Unfunded  Needs  List;  however, 

improvements  that  do  not  have  committed  funding  sources  are  not  considered  in  the 

future conditions analysis.

Five Year Analysis 

To  estimate  Year  2020  background  roadway  volumes  for  the  analysis  area,  historical 

growth  rates were  calculated  based  on  historical  data  and  used  to  project  Year  2020 

volumes.   The growth  rate calculations are  shown  in Exhibit A.   The historical data was 

obtained from the Orange County traffic count database.  The latest available volumes are 

from 2013.   The calculations  indicate  that  there  is variability  in growth rates among  the 

segments  in  the  analysis  area,  but  there  is  positive  growth  along  all  of  the  segments 

between  2008  and  2013.    A  minimum  growth  rate  of  1.0%  was  used  to  provide  a 

conservative estimate for future volumes.  In the case of Reams Road, when the historical 

growth  rate was  applied  to  exiting  volumes,  the  forecasted  2020  volume  resulted  in  a 

2020 AADT  that was higher  than  the 2040 model  forecasted AADT.   Therefore,  for  this 

segment,  2020  AADT  was  obtained  by  interpolating  (Linear)  between  existing  traffic 

volumes and 2040 model forecasted volumes. 

 

Table 4 shows the AADT for each segment from the past five years, the forecasted 2020 

volumes, and the annual growth rates calculated from these volumes. 

 

The  trips  associated  with  the  buildout  of  the  parcel  were  added  to  the  background 

volumes  for each  segment.   The MetroPlan Orlando  travel demand model was used  to 

determine  the  project  traffic  distribution  including  the  revised  development  program.  

While  the  travel  demand  model  provides  a  good  estimation  for  how  traffic  will  be 

distributed  across  the  roadway  network,  there  are  assumptions  in  the model  that  can 

create  scenarios  that  may  not  accurately  reflect  project  traffic  travel  patterns.    For 

example, the subject parcel  is  located within close proximity of Disney World, which  is a 

large employment  site.   The  trip distribution produced by  the model assumes  that 40.5 

percent  of  the  trips  from  the  parcel  will  be  attracted  by  Disney  World.    While  it  is 

reasonable to assume that project traffic will be attracted by Disney World, 40.5 percent 

seems excessive; therefore, project traffic distribution was adjusted to reduce the number 

of trips attracted by Disney World to ten percent of the project trips.  The remaining 30.5 

percent of trips were allocated proportionately throughout the network.  The project trips 

for each segment were calculated based on the adjusted distributions.  Figure 2 shows the 

adjusted distribution of the project trips along the segments within the analysis area.  The 

raw trip distribution can be found in Exhibit B.

Table 5 provides the 2020 background traffic and project traffic for each segment within 

the study area.  The analysis of the traffic volumes shows that all of the roadways within 

the study area are projected to operate within the Level of Service capacity standards.

Year 2040 Analysis 

Table 6 summarizes the roadway analysis completed for long‐term (Year 2040) conditions 

assuming  the  proposed  land  use  change.    Year  2040  background  volumes  for  the 

roadways within the study area of  influence were obtained from the MetroPlan Orlando 

travel demand model and are provided  in Exhibit B.   These raw modeled volumes (RMV) 

were then multiplied by the model output conversion factor (MOCF) for Orange County to 

get  the average annual daily  traffic  (AADT)  for each segment.   As shown  in Table 6,  the 

2040 modeled  volumes  for  the  segments  along  Overstreet  Road  and Winter  Garden‐

Vineland Road (CR 535) are lower than the existing volumes.  For these segments, and to 

provide for a more conservative analysis, the projected 2020 volumes were used  instead 

of the lower 2040 modeled volumes. 

 

The project  trips  for  the 2040 condition were  calculated by using  the  same distribution 

used  in the 2020 analysis.   The total 2040 volumes are a combination of the background 

volumes and the project trips.  The analysis shows that all of the roadway segments within 

the  study area of  influence will operate within  the acceptable  Level of Service  capacity 

standards.

Conclusions and Recommendations 

A transportation analysis was completed for existing conditions, five‐year conditions (year 

2020), and Year 2040 conditions.  The conclusions of this analysis are as follows: 

 

The proposed land use change will result in a net increase of 2,578 daily trips and 

251 PM peak trips in comparison to the currently approved land use. 

The existing conditions analysis shows  that all of  the  roadways within  the study 

area  of  influence  operate  within  the  acceptable  Level  of  Service  capacity 

standards and have excess capacity. 

The  five‐year analysis  shows  that all of  the  roadways within  the  study area are 

projected to operate within the acceptable Level of Service capacity standards. 

The Year 2040 analysis  shows  that all of  the  roadways within  the  study area of influence are projected to operate within the acceptable Level of Service capacity standards.

Appendix B: Environmental Conditions

 

As shown on Figure 6, the majority of the Developco Parcel falls within the 100-year floodplain.

Figure 7 shows that the Developco Parcel is relatively flat with little to no elevation changes throughout the property. The soils are primarily very well drained. The soils associated with the wetlands are hydric in nature. A master drainage system was constructed under SFWMD Application Number 061009-7. A SFWMD Letter Modification will be required for the site plan changes.
