C. LAND USE COMPATIBILITY: 1. SOILS: The Soil Survey of Seminole County. Florida, published by the Soil Conservation Service of the US. Department of Agriculture notes: AWhile many factors other than soils are important in planning for orderly development, soil quality is a basic and continuing factor. It demands full consideration, not only as a guide in determining use but also as a measure of the kind and magnitude of problems that must be overcome for specific uses. The decisions on urban uses are not necessarily determined on the basis of suitability. The physical characteristics and qualities of the soil become paramount, and interpretations are more directly concerned with the limitations, restrictions, or hazards and suggests corrective practices needed to prevent serious mistakes." 7 Local Planning Agency October 25, 2000 Weavcr Property Amcndmcnt LS-CP A-2-00 The soils on this property are: (#) - indicates soil map designation (09) Basinger and Delray fine sands. The soils in this map unit are nearly level and poorly drained and very poorly drained. These soils are in sloughs and poorly defined drainageways. The slopes are dominantly less than 2 percent. The soils in this map unit are poorly suited to use for homesites and other urban development. The main limitation is wetness. To overcome wetness, a water control system is needed to provide for subsurface drainage and to remove excess surface water. Fill material should be added to make these soils suitable for most urban uses. Septic tank absorption fields do not function properly during rainy periods because of wetness. (13) Basinger, Samsula, and Hontoon soils, depressional. The soils in this map unit are nearly level and poorly drained. These soils are in swamps and depressions. The slopes are dominantly less than 2 percent. In their natural state, the soils in this map unit are not suited to use for homesites, commercial or recreational development, or sanitary facilities. The main limitations are ponding, excess humus, low strength, and subsidence. The main limitations are seepage and wetness. Water control, including drainage outlets, is needed to overcome wetness. Fill material should be added to make these soils suitable for most urban uses. 2. TOPOGRAPHY: The subject property ranges from 15 feet toward Lake Jessup to a high of25 feet toward the south boundary (mean sea level). 3. FLOOD PLAIN AREA: A review of the FEMA National Flood Insurance Program Rate Map (12117COI55-E; April 17, 1995) appears to show the majority of the subject land is outside the 100 year flood plain area. That portion is in Zone X in areas determined to be outside 500- year floodplain. The area along the eastside is in Zone AE "Special Flood Hazard Area - 100 year flood" and Zone X "Other Flood Areas" 4. NATURAL RESOURCES, HISTORIC RESOURCES. No natural or historic resources are known to exist on the subject land. 8 Local Planning Agency October 25, 2000 Weaver Property Amendment LS-CPA-2-00 5. WILDLIFE AND SPECIES DESIGNATED AS ENDANGERED, THREATENED OR SPECIAL CONCERN: ' No federally listed endangered plants are known to exist in the county. It is essential that surveys of such species be completed prior to site development of parcels containing native vegetation communities. A wildlife survey of those species designated as endangered, threatened or species of special concern is required prior to final development approval for this property per 39-27.003.005 F.A.C. D. CONSISTENCY/COMPATIBILITY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The City's Comprehensive Plan indicates that the Battle Ridge Property (aka Bellfaire Subdivision) is designated on the Future Land Use Map as "Lower Density Residential" (1.1 - 3.5 DU per acre) The subject property (Weaver) is adjacent on the east side of the Battle Ridge Property. The applicant, Donald Weaver, requests the same Future Land Use Map designation as the Battle Ridge Property. The proposed FLUM designation continues similar density designations found in the surrounding residential areas of Oviedo. Adjacent to the southeast the City of Oviedo has designated on its Future Land Use Map that property and property to the east and south as "Low Density Residential" (1.0 - 3.5 DU per acre), essentially the same as what the applicant, Donald Weaver, has requested from the City of Winter Springs which is "Lower Density Residential" (1.1 - 3.5 DU per acre). The area of McKinley's Mill is designated on the City of Oviedo's FLUM as "Low Density Residential also. In the immediate and general area, those properties developed for single family residential are designated essentially the same density as the applicant is requesting. It continues a density pattern established by the City of Winter Springs and the City of Oviedo in their respective Comprehensive Plans. E. NUISANCE POTENTIAL OF PROPOSED USE TO SURROUNDING LAND USES. The nuisance potential of the proposed use resulting from the change of Future Land Use Map designation from county "Rural-3" to City "Lower Density Residential" to the surrounding properties should be minimal in view of the following: · The surrounding properties are essentially vacant. Any development of a single family subdivision in the near future should not present a nuisance to surrounding properties. · At the time of site development, a traffic impact analysis will be required to determine what measures will be required to offset the impacts and maintain traffic flow. · The City has development standards in its land development regulations to ensure minimal impacts on surrounding properties, such as buffering. The City's land development regulations and the site plan review process of the Development Review Committee can ensure the prevention or minimization of any potential nuisances. 9 Local Planning Agency October 25, 2000 Weaver Property Amendment LS-CPA-2-00 F.
