GOAL 1-2: FUTURE LAND USE MAP. CONTINUE TO MAINTAIN AND MANAGE A
FUTURE LAND USE MAP.
The Future Land Use Map Series, Maps 1-1 through 1-9 herein, reflect City policy for managing the
allocation of future land use. The Future L and U se Map Series (Base Year 2005) is supported by t he
Comprehensive Plan Data Inventory And Analysis (1991). Land use designations on the future land use
maps have been allocated pursuant to goals, objectives and policies stipulated in the Comprehensive Plan,
together with analysis of population, housing and land resources. The process of allocating these land use
designations has considered the need to conserve natural resources including wetlands, the Lake Monroe
Shoreline, flood plains, water recharge areas, fish and wildlife, consideration of capital improvement needs,
and conservation of fiscal resources.
The future land use map series shall designate areas for the following uses:

Policy 1-2.4.9: Airport Industry and Commerce Land Use Designation (AIC). The "Airport Industry and
Commerce" (AIC) land use designation is a high-intensity mixed use policy for managing lands comprising
the Orlando Sanford Airport and adjacent lands capable of supporting a variety of resi~ential, commercial
and industrial uses.
The Airport Industry and Commerce designation is intended to encourage the expansion of industrial land
uses in areas where airport noise impacts will prohibit residential development and provide additional areas
o ......... cm~xed-use development that would be compatible w~th airport operations.
The majority of such lands is located in airport property and is subject to the Airport Master Plan. Certain
properties, primarily east of Beardall Avenue, are located in the 2005 noise zone.
The Orlando-Sanford Airport shall develop according to the Airport Layout Plan (Map 1-10), adopted as
part of the Sanford Comprehensive Plan. Any substantial change to the designated uses in the Airpmt
Master Plan requires an amendment to the Sanford Comprehensive Plan.
Upon annexation of lands that are currently within the jurisdiction of Seminnle County and are included i,,
the Airport Layout Plan, the lands will be automatically given the land use designation of Airport Industrsr
Commerce.
Upon annexation of lands currently within the jurisdiction of Seminole County and included in the Airpott
Layout Plan, the lands will be given a zoning consistent with the existing zoning of the Airpoll.
The land use mix in the AdC is intended to provide a full range of urban services and facilities including:
1. Industrial and Business Parks;
2. Office Complexes;
3. Commercial and retail developments;
4. Service and hotel uses;
5. Medium to high density rental residential developments;
The maximum intensity of industrial and commercial development measured as floor area is 1.0. The
maximum intensity for rental residential uses is 50 units per acre.
The Development Review Team, the Airport Zoning Board and the Airport DesiRn Review Team shall
review development included in the ALP for compliance with the Sanford Land Development Regulations.
Development contemplated by the ALP shall comply with all land development regulations included, but
not limited to, setbacks, landscaping, parking, drainage and floor area ratios except where such regulation:;
conflict with FAA roles and regulations.
With the exception of the development included within the Airport property, The City shall require that all
new development within the "ADC" designated area be developed as a "Planned Development" (cross
reference Policy 1-2.8.1). As a "PD" Planned Development, all such new development shall be required to
address infrastructure needs, provision of services, development phasing, development intensity and land
L8
address infrastructure needs, provision of services, development phasing, development intensity and land
use compatibility as part of an integrated design scheme which includes very detailed strategies and
techniques for resolving development impacts.
.... ~, ........... to thc max:mum ~, ....... 41.1~ The location of future high density residential
developments shall comply with guidelines issued by the Federal Aviation Administration and the
Department of Transportation relating to airport compatible uses, noise zones, approach zones and other
safety measures.
Future high and medium density residential developments shall occur outside the 60 Ldn (day/night sound
level) noise contours.
In addition to compliance with all performance criteria of Policy 1-3.2.5, "PD" proposals in the "AIC" area
will be the subject of negotiated development agreements.' The review process shall involve County, state,
regional and federal agencies having jurisdiction over impacted resources. No development order shall be
granted prior to City approval of the development agreement.
Developments within the ")dC" that exist prior to the adoption of this Plan will be "grandfathered".
However, all new development in the Airport Industry and Commerce Area outside the Airport botmdafies
shall incorporate performance criteria to implement Objective 1-2.4 and Policy 1-3.2.5. Such criteria shall
include but not be limited to:
· Narrative and graphic information required for review of rezonmg petitions, for site plan review, and
other related procedural requirements.
· Impact analysis, including plans for managing any potential impacts on air operations.
· Noise impact analysis, including required sound insulation in areas within the airport impact noise
zones.
Requirements for controlled access and internal circulation, including provisions for cross access
easements, and joint use of driveways.
· Requirements for perimeter buffer yards;
Management framework for encouraging development of strategically planned sub-centers of
commerce and industry;
Dedication of necessary rights-of-way;
Use of pedestrian and mass transit facilities to reduce vehicle trips.

Objective 1-2.5: Allocating Public And Semi-Public Services (PSP). The Future Land Use Map shall
allocate land resoumes for public and semi-public facilities and services as specified in the policies
stipulated below. These sites shall be compatible with adjacent land uses to the greatest practical extent.
The sites shall also fulfill the unique site location requirements included in functional plans and shall be
responsive to the needs identified in related demographic and supportive needs analysis. This objective
shall be measured through the i~nplementation of the following policies:
Poffcy 1-2.5.1: Public and Semi-Public Land Use Designation (PSP). The public and semi-public (PSP)
land use designation is intended to accommodate existing public and semi-public services including:
governmental administration buildings; public schools and not-for-profit educational institutions; hospital
facilities and supportive health care units; arts and cultural or civic facilities; essential public services and
facilities; fire and emergency operation facilities; private parks and recreation areas; utilities~;; and other
similar activities as shall be identified in the land development regulations. Additionally, the Public/Semi-
Public designation reflects major transportation facilities including the CSX railroad terminal, plus
expressway right-of-way that is proposed for use and/or owned by the Seminole County Expressway
Authority.
Lands designated for public and semi-public facilities and services shall contain sufficient acreage and open
space and be properly screened and buffered in order to minimize potential adverse impacts on adjacent
land uses.
The maximum intensity of institutional activity measured as a floor area ratio is .35.
The City shall monitor the need for increased land area for public and semi-public uses in order to ensure
that the public and semi-public land use designation on the Future Land Use Map is expanded to
accommodate the development of public and semi-public facilities such as governmental administration
buildings; fire, police and rescue services; health care delivery services; and educational institutions.
Land uses such as places of worship, cultural or civic centers, and other similar public or private not-for---~-,
profit uses may be included within this land use designation or within other land use designations as
provided for in the land development regulations.
With regards to lands located in areas proposed for use by the expressway but not owned by the
Expressway Authority, the City shall discourage land use planning or regulatory changes that would result
in higher intensities or densities. This policy shall not prevent the reasonable use of such lands pursuant to
goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
All new development or redevelopment shall comply ~vith perfom~ance criteria cited in Policy 1-3.2.5. This
policy shall be implemented through a mandatory site plan reviexv process. __
Polic~ 1-2.5.2: Parks, Recreation And Open Space Land Use Designation (PRO): The Parks, Recreation
and Open Space land use designation is inten~cd tointended to distinguish Sanford's parks, recreational
facilities and opens space facilities from other public uses. This designation is intended for developed Ci~ -'
parks and areas of significant open space, including cemeteries.
20
Parks and recreation areas shall be readily accessible at the neighborhood and community level. Parks
shall be developed and redeveloped according to the level of service standards for parks and recreational
facilities, community demand and community input. Parks shall generally provide outdoor recreational
facilities. However, community centers and indoor facilities are also permitted up to a floor area ratio of

Policg 2-1.12.1. Integrate the Airport with Regional Transit. The City shall annually coordinate with
LYNX and Seminble County regarding the feasibility of a transit feeder route that links the airport with
the regional bus transit system. At the time light or commuter rail is evaluated between Sanford and
Orlando, the City ~hall encourage LYNX, Metroplan Orlando (MPO) or the entity conducting such
study to also evaluate the potential for feeder bus mutes linking the airport with regional transit centers
and/or intermodal facilities, existing or planned within the Sanford area. Once regional transit is
provided, the Airport ahall work with public transit providers to incorporate signage to direct the public
to available transit and to inform the public about transit and ridesharing.
Polic~ 2-11.2.2. Integrate Bus Transit Facilities with Future Airport Expansion Plans. Pursuant to
the A~rport Master Plan, site design plans for future airport terminal areas shall accommodate locations
for future public transit service at convenient locations for travelers and employees. Site design shall
also consider the design needs for charter buses, including access and bus parking and passenger loading
areas.
Policg 2-1.12.3. Transportation Improvements and the Airport Master Plan. The City shall ensure that
coordination occurs between the development anticipated by the Airport Master Plan and any proposed
or future state, local or regional transportation plans and improvements.
Pursuant to Policy 2-1.3.5 of the Sanford Comprehensive Plan, any development on Airport p~._operty
that is anticipated to generate 1,000 daily trips or 100 peak-hour trips shall be required to submit a traffic
impact study.
The traffic impact study shall include:
1. Total projected peak-hour trips for the proposed development.
· pass-by capture rate (commemial land uses only);
· internal capture rate (planned development only);
· peak-hour external trips based on ITE Trip Generation Manual, most recent Edition; and
· peak-hour directional projected vehicle trips on all segments of the arterial and collector street
system which are adjacent to the development project or as determined-necessary by the'-
Administrative Official.
2. Design capacity of the accessed road(s).
3. Analysis of traffic distribution on the road network including all links impacted by more than ten
percent (10%) of proiect traffic or five hundred (500) trips per day, whichever is greater.
4. Necessary operational improvements to the City, County, or State maintained transportation system '
in order to maintain the appropriate level-of-service for the roadway.
5. Justification, including appropriate references, for the use of any trip generation rates, adjustments
factors or traffic assignment methods not previously approved by the City.
6. The latest edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual shall be
used to calculate these estimates. Adjustments to these estimates may be made, based on special trip
generation information supplied by the applicant.
24
In determining impacts on available capacity for roadways, the following criteria shall be used:
The impacts of development shall be based on the peak-hour, peak direction trips associated with the
land use designation in which the proposed development shall occur, using the most recent published
edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers', Trip Generation manual, or as may be
subsequently updated. Internal capture rates may be considered in determining traffic volumes for
mixed use developments; however, the applicant shall bear the burden of demonstrating any internal
capture rates upon five (5) percent of the total nonresidential trips.
· Roads analyzed shall include all links impacted by more than ten percent (10%) of the project traffic
or [eceiving five hundred (500) trips per day, whichever is greater.
· Methodologies used to determine transportation concurrency shall be consistent with methodologies
established in the FDOT LOS Guideline.
· Roads analyzed shall include all links impacted by more than ten percent (10%) of the project traffic
or receiving five hundred (500) trips per day, whichever is greater.
· Methodologies used to determine transportation concurrency shall be consistent with methodoIogies
established in the FDOT LOS Guideline.
If the preliminary level of service information indicates a deficiency in capacity based on adopte__d lg_ve~l
of service (LOS) standards, the developer has two alternatives:
a. Accept the level of service information as set forth in the comprehensive plan;
Prepare a more detailed altemative Highway Capacity Analysis as outlined in the _H~igh_w_a~
Capacity Manual 2000, Transportation Research Board. The trip distribu~tion shall be
with the presets of the approved trip generation model, i.e. the Seminole County Trip Gm~r.a~iou
model, the Orlando Urban Area Transportation Study (OUATS) model, or another distribution
model approved by the City, the East Central Florida Regional Planning Council. (EC~I~_~RPC)F-
Seminole County, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the Department of
Community Affairs and the Airport Authority.
The impact area shall include adiacent roadway segments. Analyses and models shall be consistent with
professional standards established in one (1) or more of the following documents:
a. Highway Capacity Manual 2000, Transportation Research Board, National Research Council, 2000.
b. Florida Highway System Plan, "Traffic Analysis Procedures," Florida Department of
Transportation, Bureau of Multi-Modal Systems Planning, most recent edition.

Traffic Study Results/Mitigation:
The Airport shall not develop when service levels are below the minimum service level adopted
in the applicable local government's comprehensive plan during the peak hour and the proiect
contributes, or is proiected to contribute with the next phase of traffic, ten percent of the adopted
LOS service volume of the roadway or intersection as determined by the monitoring program
required in the preceding recommendations, unless mitigation measure and/or improvements are
'secured and committed' for completion of construction during the phase in which the impacts
occur. The schedule of improvements shall be tied to the development level at which the
improvement is needed within each development phase.
The results of the traffic impact study will be used to determine the then-current' conditions
regarding improvement needs and priorities, and the pace of both development under the Airport
Master Plan and the area development. The study will evaluate the appropriateness of proposed
mitigation measures, as well as validate the transportation assumptions developed for the original
Application for Development Approval for the Development of Regional Impact dated February
28, 2000. These assumptions relate to, but are not limited to, impact area, planned and
programmed improvements, existing conditions, proiect traffic, pass-by traffic, modal split,
internal capture, distribution of traffic, and daily and peak-hour trip generation rates,
identification of areas where project traffic is significant an adverse, projected roadway levels of
service (AADT and peak-hour) for 2005, 2010, 1015 and 2020 and annual growth rates [or the
affected area. The developer of Airport property shall identify the needed roadway
improvements necessary as a result of significant and adverse roadway impacts form the
proposed development.
b. The 'securing and commitment' of adequate mitigation/measures shall include one of the
following:
A roadway improvement scheduled for construction within the first three (3)',,'ears of the
appropriate local government's comprehensive plan capital improvement element (or as
otherwise provided in the applicable iurisdiction's capital improvement element);
2. A roadway improvement scheduled for construction within the first three (3') years of the
Florida Department of Transportation's Five Year Work Program;
A binding financially secured and irrevocable commitment by the Airport or othei'
appropriate person or entity for the design, engineering, land acquisition and actual
construction of the necessary improvements (with posting of a cash bond, surety bond,
irrevocable letter of credit, escrow account or other secuhty in a form acceptable to the
agency of iurisdiction) within the next three years and incorporated by reference into the
development order;
26
..Any other mitigation option permitted by law, including a local government development
agreement consistent with Chapter 163, F.S., or a proportionate share payment agreement
pursuant to and consistent with Chapter 163 or Chapter 380, F.S., and related_._m.m_~s
which ameliorates the projected impact and is incorporated into the development order by
amendment. These improvements shall occur by the required threshold in order for the
project to proceed. If the Airport can demonstrate that a project listed in the Airport
Master Plan does not adversely affect the Regional Roadway network as determined by
the monitoring and modeling tests discussed above, then the Airport may proceed with
the development.
In the event that a roadway widening is identified which is not compatible with adopted
policy of the FDOT (8 or 10 laning of a state roadway) or local government
(constrained), the Airport, the City of Sanford, Seminole County, the ECFRPC and the
party having either maintenance or jurisdictional responsibility for the facility shall
iointly determine alternate mitigation solutions to provide for the movement of people.
Toward the achievement of the objectives in the two preceding conditions, an agreement(s) among the
City of Sanford, Seminole County, the FDOT, and the Airport may be entered into within twelve months
of the City's approval of any development project discussed in the Airport Master Plan which affects the
Regional Transportation system. Said agreement(s) shall address and clarify such issues related to
equity in the application of fees for transportation improvements. Said fees shall be based on a fair-
share basis with respect to the improvements to be provided and not solely on the basis of imp_gct fees.
However, such an agreement would not alter or waive the provisions and requirements~ 9~ t73~ ~4h(~r
recommendations listed above as a mitigation measure for the transportation impacts of the Ai)pc)r_t
Master Plan. In the event that one of the designated parties to the agreement (other than the Airport)

facilities needed in Sanford through the year 2010.
Poli0' d !.1.5 6-1.1.5: Recreation Impact Fees for Recreation Improvements.
.
The City maintains a mandatory recreation impact fee program. In order to ensure that private development -
contributes to recreation, park and open space demand generated by the respective developments, all
residential development shall be directly assessed for demands generated by the development.
29
Policy 6-1.1.~6: Future Recreation Capital Improvements. City recreation improvements for which
public funds are required, as opposed to developer financed improvements, shall be scheduled and
incorporated as capital projects in the Capital Improvements Element.
Policy 6-1.1.87_: Maintenance of Existing Recreation Land and Facilities. T he City shall maintain
existing recreation land and facilities through the use of proper management and funding techniques. The
City shall assure that recreation facilities are well managed, well maintained, and that quality recreation
programs are available to all residents. This shall be partially achieved by continuing efforts toward
collecting, maintaining, and updating data concerning public and private resource inventory, recreation
improvement, and demand factors, and by improving design criteria and evaluation to attain a high quality
park and recreation system.
Policy 6-1.1.98: Utilize Creative Concepts of Urban Design and Conservation of Environmentally
Sensitive Open Space. All plans for development or redevelopment of parkland resources shall
incorporate creative concepts of urban design and landscape. The plans shall be designed to preserve
existing areas of unrestricted access along the shoreline of Lake Monroe and prevent "walling-offf views of
the water. Active and passive recreation areas shall be planned in a manner compatible with unique natural
features of the site.
Park development plans shall be designed to preserve resource protection areas. The design shall provide a
circulation system to minimize conflict between pedestrians and vehicles. Adequate landscape and
screening shall be integrated into park development plans to minimize land use conflicts, protect stability of
established residential areas, and enhance community appearance.
Policy 6-1.1.g09_: Promote Environmental Concern as Part of Recreational Programs. The City shall
provide environmental education and management as an integral part of park and recreation policies and
programs, in concert with environmental interest groups such as the local Audubon Society. Support for
cooperative programming between resource agencies and local educational advisors will provide park and-"
recreation resources as an instrument for environmental teaching, and as a means for accomplishing this
objective. The City shall develop educational nature trails along environmentally unique segments of Lake
Monroe to provide opportunities for environmental education.
Policy 6-1.1.t410: Designate or Acquire Open Space and Natural Reservations. "Natural reservations"
are areas designated for conservation purposes, and operated by contractual agreement with or managed by
a federal, state, regional or local government or nonprofit agency such as: national parks, state parks, lands
purchased under the Save Our Coast, Conservation and Recreation Lands or Save Our Rivers programs,
sanctuaries, preserves, monuments, archaeological sites, historic sites, wildlife management areas, national
seashores, and Outstanding Florida Waters.
Lake Monroe, a tributary of the St. Johns River is a natural reservation. The City of Sanford has also
designated all wetland areas within the City as "Resource Protection" or "Conservation" areas on the Future
Land Use Map. The City shall enforce performance criteria designed to protect and preserve wetlands,
wetland transition areas and water management areas as cited in 5-1.4.1. The City shall enforce its
stormwater mauagement and wetland preservation regulations to provide for the dedication o f conservation
30
easements or reservations where the City finds that the dedication is reasonable in order to protect the value
and function of a wetland or to further the objective of stormwater management plan.
The City shall protect wetlands pursuant to Policy 5-1.4.1. Data and analysis presented later in the
Conservation Element: Data Inventory and Analysis of this Plan entitled, Analysis of Wetland Buffer
Regulations, provide comparative analysis of the City's wetland design and performance criteria. The City's
wetland buffer criteria stipulated in Policy 5-1.4.1 are either equally or more restrictive than those of other
public entities with wetlands jurisdiction.
The City shall protect wetlands by requiring that new development institute wetland buffers to comply with
the following design and performance criteria:
Retain Natural Drainage Characteristics - Natural surface water patterns shall be maintained.
Proposed drainage conditions shall approximate existing drainage conditions. The velocity of water
flowing through wetlands shall remain approximately the same before and after development.
Minimize Alteration or Modification - No land use or development shall be permitted that would
result in the elimination o f any beneficial function of a wetland. If permitted, any alteration or
modification of wetlands shall be the minimum necessary to conduct the use or activity.
Stormwater - The use of cypress, hardwood swamp, bayhead, and hydric hammock wetlands for
water retention shall be permitted when utilized to decompose dissolved organics and when such
wetlands are not connected to surface waters. Stormwater detention basins shall screen, filter, trap
and/or otherwise prevent sediment and debris and minimize the amotmt of chemicals entering
wetlands. Channelization of water to or through a wetland shall not be permitted.
Ground Floor Elevation - When structures intended for human habitation are proposed to be located
in wetlands t hat a re not regulated b y t he provisions o f Ordinance N o. l 859, t he Administrative
Official shall be authorized to establish and require a minimum ground floor elevation sufficient tc¢~*
prevent future flood damage of buildings on the parcel in question based on the best available
information.
5. Wetland Buffer- A wetland buffer of twenty-five (25) feet in width shall be provided adjacent to
wetlands that are five (5) acres or less; a wetland buffer of fifty (50) feet in width shall be provided
adjacent to wetlands that are greater than five (5) acres. The area of wetlands in question shall
include all contiguous wetlands located on the site and adjacent to the site. The xvidth of the
wetland buffer shall be measured and provided parallel to the edge of the wetland in question. The
required wetland buffer shall, unless otherwise provided for in this ordinance, be planted and
maintained in landscaping materials including ground cover, shrubs, hedges or trees.
The following uses shall be permissible within a wetland buffer:
· Required project improvements;
· Pemfitted public service structures;
· Walkways xvith pervious surfaces;
· Required landscaped areas.
31
The following uses shall be prohibited within a wetland buffer:
· Vehicular use areas, off-street parking and/or loading and service areas;
· Buildings.
In addition, all off-street parking spaces located adjacent to wetland buffer shall be provided with
appropriate tire stops, curbs or other vehicular bumper guards designed to prevent any encroachment of
vehicles upon the required buffer.
OBJECTIVE 6-1.2: PROTECT OPEN SPACE SYSTEMS. The City shall preserve open space for
recreation activities, for utilitarian uses, for purposes of conserving resource protection area identified in
Objective 1-2.7 and Policy 1-2.7.1. The Comprehensive Plan cites performance criteria for achieving
preservation of open space cited in the below stated policies as well as in Policy 1-1.1.1. This objective
shall be measured through the implementation of the following policies.
Policy 6-1.2.1: Open Space Preservation Criteria. The City of Sanford defines three types of open space
as cited below:
1. Utility Open Space. Utility open space includes the following:
2.6.1;
· Transportation Corridors - Preserved through the Future Traffic Circulation Map, Objective 2-1.5, and
Policy 1-2.5.1 and 1-2.5.2;
· Potentially Incompatible Land Use Buffer Areas - Preserved through Policy 1 ~ 1.1.1;
· Stormwater Retention Areas - Preserved through Policies 6-1.1.11;
· Provision of open space by all new development: Policy 1-1.1.1.
These uses are all essential to the protection of human xvelfare. These areas are be&y_ definition necessary
utilitarian areas preserved in order to accommodate their respective fimctions.
2. Conservation Open Space. Conservation open space includes the areas identified as resource protection
areas in Policy 1-2.7.1. The applicable performance criteria, which the City shall administer, are cite~l
next to each type of open space.
· Wetlands and Aquatic Habitats - Preserved through the Resource Protection designation of the Future
Land Use Map; Map I- 1, Water Resources Map; and Policies 5- 1.4.1, 6-1.1.11;
· Floodways and Drainage Ways - Preserved through the Resource Protection designation on the Future
Land Use Map; Map I- 1, Water Resources Map; and Polic es 5-1 2 3, 5-1.2.4, 5- 1.2.5, 6-1.1.11;
32
Aquifer Recharge Areas and Wellfield Protection Areas - Preserved through the Resource Protection
designation on the Future Land Use Map; Map I-1, Water Resources Map; and Policies 4-4.1.1, 4-4.1.2,
4-4. l.3, 4-4.1.4, 5-1.2.6, 5-1.2.7, 6-1.1.11;
Upland Wildlife Habitats - Preserve pursuant to Policy 5-1.3.1. The Vegetative Communities Map I-9
in the Future Land Use Element together with Table I-2 in the Future Land Use Element which
identified "Endangered and Potentially Endangered Fauna Species Indigenous to Habitats Identified
within the City of Sanford" shall be used as a guide for locating wildlife habitats and protective measure
shall be involved after on site analysis protection measures shall be involved as a condition of site plan
review.
· Floodplains - The areas are identified on the Water Resources Map I-I in the Future Land Use
Element shall be protected pursuant to Policy 5-1.3.1.
3. Recreation Open Space. City parks and recreation areas are included in this category as identified in the
Recreation and Open Space Data Inventory and Analysis and as delineated on the Future Land Use
Maps t-? and I 8 and inventoried on Table I-1 in the Future Land Use Element.
These lands are preserved pursuant to the mI~!ic,,-Par~ks, Recrea~tion and (~n Space
designation on the Future Land Use Map and Objective 6~1.1 and accompanying Policies 6-1.1.1 through 6-
1.1.11.
The above criteria are designed to protect and preserve natural systems, including not only active parks and
recreation areas, but also natural conversation open space systems, and utilitarian open spaces. The purpose
is to achieve preservation of scenic and/or passive open spaces as xvell as areas accommodating more active
recreation activities.
The City shall ensure that all new development is designed in a manner compatible with natural system and~-'~
shall not encroach u pon open s pace systems. T he City s hall require dedication of o pen s pace systems
and/or conservation easements in order to implement this policy where such action is consistent with the
public health, safety, and welfare and does not impose a "taking" without just compensation.
The City may consider the allocation of existing parkland for another use provided that all three (3) of
the following conditions are met:
,, the proposed use is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of this Comprehensive
Plan;
· the facilities located within that park can be provided at another park within the City (i.e., no
net loss of recreation facilities); and
· the resulting level of service for park land is not less than the adopted level of service of 4.0
acres/1,000 people.

OBJECTIONS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND COMMENTS
CITY OF SANFORD
PROPOSED AMENDMENT 03-1
I. CONSISTENCY WITH CHAPTER 163~ PART II~ AND RULE 9J-5~ F.A.C.
The proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment 03-1 consists of text amendments to the
Future Land Use Element, Transportation Element, and Recreation and Open Space Element,
and three Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendments. One of the FLUM amendments changes
311.5 acres from "Public-Semi Public" to "Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces" and the
Department does not object to this FLUM amendment. The Department does not object to the
proposed text amendments to revise the goals, objectives and policies of the Recreation and
Open Space Element.
The remaining two FLUM amendments and text amendments to the Future Land Use
Element and Transportation Element address the Orlando Sanford International Airport. One
FLUM amendment changes 243.72 annexed acres from "County Higher Density Planned
Development (HDPD)-Airport" to City "Airport Industry and Commerce." The second FLUM
amendment adds the Airport Layout Plan (ALP) of the Orlando Sanford International Airport to
the FLUM. The proposed text amendments add new Future Land Use Element Objective 1-2.4
and Policies 1-2.4.1 through 1-2.4.9, and add new Transportation Element Objective 2-1.12 and
Policies 2-1.12-I through 2-12.6. The amendments to the FLUM and text are proposed in order
to incorporate the Airport Master Plan into the City's Comprehensive Plan pursuant to the
requirements of Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S. The Department raises the following objections to
these proposed amendments:
1. Obiection: The City proposes to amend the FLUM to add the Airport Layout Plan and to
amend the FLUM to change 243.72 acres from "County Higher Density Planned Development
(HDPD)-Airport" to:City "Airport Industry and Commerce." The FLUM amendment to add the
Airport Layout Plan to the City's FLUM does not show the location and amounts of proposed
airport-related and aviation-related development on the FLUM. Both of the proposed FLUM
amendments are not supported by sufficient environmental suitability data and analysis
identifying natural resources (soils, wetlands, surface water, vegetation, wildlife and their
habitat, and floodplains) that may be affected on-site and off-site by the amendments and
demonstrating that the proposed amendments ensure the protection of natural resources
consistent with the requirements of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Rule 9J-5, F.A.C. The
designation of wetland areas as City Airport Industry and Commerce is inconsistent with
Conservation Element Policy 5-1.4.3 of the City's plan, which provides that wetlands will be
designated as Resource Protection. Both of the amendments do not propose to update the Future
Land Use Element "Existing Land Use Map" and "Future Land Use Map" to show the following
natural resources: waterwells and wellhead protection areas, lakes, floodplains, wetlands,
minerals, and soils, as required by Rules 9J-5.006(l)(b) and 9J-5.006(4)(b), F.A.C. The
amendments are not consistent with the following provisions of the City's Comprehensive Plan:
Future Land Use Element Objectives 1-3.2 and 1-3.6, and Policies 1-3.2.2, 1-3.2.5, I-3.6.1, and
1-3.6.2; and Conservation Element Goal 5-1, Objectives 5-1.2, 5-1.3, 5-1.4, 5-1.7, 5-1.8, 5-1.9,
and 5-2.1, and Policies 5-1.2.5, 5-1.3.1, 5-1.4.1 through 5-1.4.5, 5-1.7.1, 5-1.8.1, 5-1.8.2, 5-1.9.1,
and 5-2.1.3. The proposed amendments are not consistent with the requirements of Section
163.3177(6)(k), F.S.
The amendments do not ensure that the natural resource protection commitments
included in the Orlando Sanford International Airport Development of Regional Impact (DRI)
Development Order are adequately addressed in the plan amendment.
Sections 163.3177(2, 3 and 8); 163.3177(10(e); and 163.3177(6)(a, d,j, and k), F.S.;
Rules 9J-5.005(2, 5 and 6); 9J-5.006(l)(b); 9J-5.006(2)(b and e); 9J-5.006(3)(b)l., and 4.; 9,I-
5.006(3)(c); 9J-5.006(4); 9,I-5.013(1)(a and b); 9J-5.013(2)(b); 9J-5.013(2)(c)6., and 9.; and
9J-5.013(3)(a and b), F.A.C.
Recommendation: Revise the amendments to show the natural resources on the Existing
Land Use Map and Future Land Use Map. Revise the amendments to include environmental
suitability data and analysis demonstrating that the proposed amendments ensure the protection
of natural resoumes consistent with the requirements of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Rule
9J-5, F.A.C. Revise the amendments to designate the wetland areas as Resource Protection.
Revise the amendment to ensure that the natural resource protection commitments included in
the Orlando Sanford International Airport DRI Development Order are adequately addressed in
the plan amendment. Revise the amendment to include a large scale ALP clearly identifying
areas designated for airport-related or aviation related development. Revise the amendments as
necessary to be supported by and consistent with the data and analysis and to protect natural
resources.
2. Ob.jection: The proposed Future Land Use Element Policy I-2.4.1 incorporates the goals
and objectives of the Airport Master Plan into the comprehensive plan as the general guidelines
for development of the Airport intending to ensure that Airport facilities will be adequate to meet
both long-term and short-term demand for aviation services. However, the proposed Policy 1-
2.4.1 is vague and inadequate because it does not establish specific meaningful and predictable
standards to guide development and establish such standards based on supporting data and
analysis. Pursuant to Rule 9J-5.005(6), F.A.C., objectives and policies shall establish
meaningful and predictable standards for the use and development of land to and provide
meaningful guidelines for the content of more detailed land development and use regulations.
Under Policy I-2.4.1, there are no corresponding policies listed that establish specific guidelines,
as well as measurable parameters for each general strategy. Therefore, the goals and objectives
stated under Policy 1-2.4.1 do not establish meaningful and predictable standards in the
comprehensive plan. The proposed amendment is not consistent with the requirements of
Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S.
Sections 163.3177(2); 163.3177(6)(a, b,j and k), F.S.; Rules 9J-5.003(90); 9J-5.005(2, 5
and 6); and 9J-5.006(3)(c), F.A.C.
Recommendation: The City needs to ensure that objectives and policies in the plan
provide clear and specific guidance to ensure that Airport facilities will be adequate to meet both
long- and short term- demand for aviation services. As such, the City should revise Policy 1-
2.4.1 to clarify the specific actions that will be taken, or the City should add the goals and
objectives of the Airport Master Plan as specific goals and objectives for the comprehensive plan
and then add implementing policies. Support the revised amendment with data and analysis.
3. Ob,iection: The proposed text amendments to the Transportation Element and both of the
proposed FLUM amendments (ALP amendment; and 243.72 acre amendment) are not supported
by adequate data and analysis addressing the following: (1) the impact of the maximum
development potential of the proposed airport master plan on the transportation system; (2)
analysis demonstrating that the adopted level of service standards for roadways will be
maintained, including identification of road improvements (scope, timing, and cost of
improvement) needed to maintain the adopted level of service standards of roadways; and (3)
analysis demonstrating that the amendments and any needed road improvements are internally
consistent with the Transportation Element and Capital Improvements Element.
The text amendments to the Transportation Element are not supported by data and analysis
demonstrating that the Airport Master Plan is consistent with METROPLAN Orlando's Long
Range Transportation Plan regarding the planning and provision of any road improvements
needed to maintain the adopted level of service standards for roadways impacted by the airport
as required by Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S. The amendments do not ensure that the
transportation facility commitments included in the Orlando Sanford International Airport DRI
Development Order are adequately addressed in the plan amendment. Also, the Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) has indicated that not all of the proposed roadway
improvements included in Table 2 are reflected in their five-year work program. The proposed
amendments are not consistent with the requirements of Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S.
Transportation Element Objective 2.1.12 and implementing Policies 2.1.12.1 through
2.1. l 2.6 require coordination of airport development and transportation facilities; however, there
is no clear coordination between transportation improvements and airport development. The
transportation study in the amendment is not clearly based on the maximum development
potential of areas designated as Reserved for Future Aviation Related Development.
Sections 163.3177(6)(a, b, j and k); 163.3177(2and8); 163.3177(10)e; and163.3180,
F.S.; and Rules 9J-5.005(2 and 5); 9J-5.0055; 9J-5.006(3)(c) 3 and 4; 9J-5.006(4); 9J-
5.016(1,2, and 4); 9J-5.016(3)(b)5; 9J-5.016(3)(c) 5 and 6; 9J-5.019(3)(a, b, d, e,f, g, h, i and
k); 9J-5.019(4)(a); 9J-5.019(4)(b) 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 and lO; 9J-5.019(4)(c) 1, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13,
14, 17, 18, 19, 20and21; 9J-5.019(5), F.A.C.
Recommendation: The City should revise the proposed amendments to include adequate
and relevant data and analysis to identify the impacts of the proposed airport master plan
development on the transportation system, identify transportation facility improvements (scope,
timing, and cost) necessary to maintain adopted level of service standards, and to demonstrate
that the proposed airport master plan will not result in roadways operating below the adopted
level o f service standards for the short term (5-year) and longer range planning timeframes.
Include data and analysis demonstrating that the transportation facilities needed to support the
airport master plan are consistent with METROPLAN Orlando's Long Range Transportation
Plan. Data and information related to state highway system facilities should be consistent with
the latest FDOT data available; it cannot be assumed that FDOT will be responsible for facility
improvements that have not been included in the five-year work program. Revise the
amendment to ensure that the transportation facility commitments included in the Orlando
Sanford Intemational Airport DRI Development Order are adequately addressed in the plan
amendments. Revise the amendments as necessary to be supported by and consistent with the
data and analysis.
The City should revise the Future Traffic Circulation Map and Capital Improvements
Element as necessary to be intemally consistent with the airport master plan and coordinate with
adjacent local governments to ensure that the road improvements necessary to support the
proposed airport master plan are appropriately recognized. The Capital Improvements Element
data and analysis should identify the necessary projects, including project timing, cost estimates,
and funding sources and the Capital Improvements Element Five Year Schedule of Capital
Improvements should include projects that are to be relied upon to maintain the adopted level of
service. Revise the plan amendment as necessary to maintain internal consistency among
comprehensive plan elements.
4. Objection: The proposed Future Land Use Element Policy 1-2.4.3 addresses interlocal
agreements for public facilities to serve development of the airport master plan. Policy 1-2.4.3 is
not adequately supported by data and analysis addressing: (1) the impacts of the airport master
plan on the transportation system by phase of airport development; (2) the transportation facility
improvements (scope, timing and cost of improvement; and party responsible for implementation
of improvement) by phase of airport development necessary to maintain the adopted level of
service standards of transportation facilities that may be impacted by airport development; and
(3) when each interlocal agreement needs to be executed, the scope of projects for each
agreement, and the parties for each agreement. The amendment does not include as supporting
data and analysis any executed interlocal agreements addressed by Policy 1-2.4.3, and the
amendment does not demonstrate that such executed agreements are consistent with and
supported by the analysis addressed in items (1, 2, and 3) above. The proposed amendment is
not consistent with the requirements of Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S.
Sections 163.3177(6)(a, b,j and k); 163.3177(2 and 8); 163.3177(10)e; and 163.3180,
F.S.; and Rules 9J-5.005(2 and 5); 9J-5.0055; 9J-5.006(3)(c) 3 and 4; 9J-5.016(1,2, and 4); 9J-
5.016(3)(b)5; 9J-5.016(3)(c) 5 and 6; 9J-5.019(3)(a, b, d, e, f, g, h, i and k); 9J-5.019(4)(a); 9J-
5.019(4)(b) 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10; 9J-5.019(4)(c) 1, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20 and
21; 9J-5.019(5), F.A.C.
Recommendation: Support Future Land Use Element Policy 1-2.4.3 with data and
analysis regarding transportation impacts, necessary transportation improvements, when each
interlocal agreement needs to be executed, the scope of projects for each agreement, and the
parties to each agreement. Include as supporting data and analysis any executed interlocal
agreements necessary for the purposes of providing transportation facilities to maintain the
4
adopted level of service standards for facilities subject to concurrency, and demonstrate that the
agreements are consistent with and supported by the data and analysis. Revise the amendment as
necessary to be supported by and consistent with the data and analysis.
5. Ob.iection: Rule 9J-5.019(4)(c)18, FAC, requires the Transportation Element to include a
policy to mitigate adverse structural and non-structural impacts from airports upon natural
resoumes and land uses. Existing Policy 2-1.13.5 partially addresses this, but does not address
mitigation measures where impacts are not minimal. Therefore, the policy is not consistent with
the requirements of Rule 9J-5.019(4)(c) 18, F.A.C., and Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S.
Sections 163.317 7(6)(b, j and k), F.S. ; and Rules 9J-5.003(90); 9.1-5.005(6); and 9,1-
5.019(4)(c)18, F.A.C.
Recommendation: Revise the amendment to include a policy addressing how the city
will mitigate adverse structural and non-structural impacts from airports upon natural resources
and land uses.
6. Objection: Rule 9J-5.019(4)(c)19, FAC, requires the Transportation Element to include a
policy to protect and conserve natural resources within airports. Existing Policy 2-1.13.5
partially addresses this, but does not address protection or conservation measures where impacts
are not minimal. Therefore, the policy is not consistent with the requirements of Rule 9J-
5.019(4)(c)19, F.A.C., and Section 163.3177(6)(k), F.S.
Sections 163.3177(6)(b,j and k), F.S.; and Rules 9J-5.003(90); 9J-5.005(6); and 9J-
5.019(4)(c)19, F.A.C.
Recommendation: Revise the amendment to include a policy addressing ho~v the City
will ensure the protection and conservation of natural resources ~vithin airport.
