 Chapter 59. CONCURRENCY MANAGEMENT
 Part 3. CONCURRENCY EVALUATIONS

  § 59.303. Concurrency Evaluation for Potable Water.  

Latest version.

  • Concurrency evaluations for Potable Water shall be conducted consistent with the LOS standards described in Section 59.202 of this Chapter. For each proposed development, the following information shall be used to determine the impact of development:

    (1)

    For each land use within the proposed development, the quantity of that land use shall be multiplied by the LOS standard for the relevant land use category as shown in Section 59.202.

    (2)

    For all land uses not identified in Section 59.202, the CMO shall assign the most relevant land use category based on typical demand for potable water.

    (3)

    The sum of the demand generated by each land use category within the proposed development shall determine the total quantity of potable water demand.

    This impact, plus the impact of potable water demand from all existing, permitted, reserved, encumbered, vested and committed development, shall be compared to existing potable water permitted capacity, as identified in the Annual Capacity Availability Report. If the impacts exceed the capacity, then the proposed development shall be deemed not to be concurrent for Potable Water. Chapter 59, Part 8 addresses the process for property owners to enter a concurrency resolution process to address the deficiency. Alternatively, the property owner may postpone development until the City addresses the deficiency, as described in Chapter 59, Part 7.

    The applicant shall also coordinate with the potable water service provider to ensure that adequate capacity is available from the water line that will serve the project. This is defined as maintenance of minimum line pressure under average daytime demand conditions, measured at the nearest transmission or distribution main, under average daytime demand conditions.

    Official Source of Information. Potable Water capacity shall be determined by the Water Provider (currently the Orlando Utilities Commission) and shall be based on the most recent Annual Capacity Availability Report provided to the City, pursuant to interlocal agreement. Potable Water capacity shall be reported to the City Planning Division Manager on an annual basis as set out in Part 7 of this Chapter.
