Ob <br /> PROPOSED ORDINANCE AMENDMENT <br /> ORDINANCE: Zoning Ordinance . <br /> REFERENCE: . Article 13 .TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY -- <br /> ORIGIN OF AMENDMENT: x Staff x Planning Board <br /> BOCC Public <br /> Other: <br /> - -RECOMMENDATION: <br /> . STAFF PRIORITY High Middle <br /> -. _ - g �xLow - <br /> Comment: <br /> EXPECTED PUBLIC HEARING DATE: November 23, 1987 <br /> PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT: Article 13 will create a new require- <br /> ment for developments that produce 800 <br /> or more trips per day. These develop- <br /> ments will be required to prepare and <br /> submit a traffic impact study. <br /> IMPACTS/ ISSUES: Large-scale development has a significant <br /> effect on a community ' s and in some cases a <br /> region ' s environment, economy, and public <br /> facilities. A traffic impact study is used <br /> to determine whether the roadway network in <br /> the area of - a proposed major development <br /> will be able to handle the existing traffic <br /> plus additional traffic that will be <br /> generated by the development. If , in <br /> preparing the study, it is determined that <br /> the roadway network cannot adequately handle <br /> the additional traffic, the study should <br /> provide useful information for determining <br /> the types and extent of improvements <br /> necessary to handle the additional traffic. <br /> In this way, it can provide a basis for <br /> linking roadway improvements with develop- <br /> ment project approval . <br /> This amendment would require preparation and <br /> submission of a traffic impact study as part <br /> of an application for a zoning atlas amend- <br /> ment, a special use permit, or site plan <br /> approval that would result in production of <br /> more than 800 trips per day. Procedures are <br /> included that would allow Orange County to <br /> require preparation of a study for smaller <br /> proposals as well as an exemption procedure <br /> for larger proposals when it can be demon- <br /> strated that the proposal would not produce <br /> a need for transportation improvements. <br />
