§ 5.08.06. Adequacy of Public Facilities

The applicant shall comply with Part 4.02.00 of this Code (Adequate Public Facilities). Because a Mixed-Use Development or TND involves a balance between residential and non-residential facilities and a high level of pedestrian infrastructure, many trips are typically captured on-site or are made by non-vehicular modes such as walking or public transportation. Accordingly, the transportation impact of a Mixed-Use Development or TND project may be computed as follows for concurrency purposes.

A.

Net Trip Generation

An applicant requesting concurrency review for a Mixed-Use Development or Infill TND shall calculate the project's net trip generation either by using the latest edition of Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation, Informational Report, and ITE Trip Generation Handbook or a detailed traffic analysis and trip generation study using methodologies approved by Hillsborough County. Additional reductions in trips are allowed as provided in B., C., D. and E below. A Development Agreement may be utilized to address the requirements of this section as provided in Section 5.05.00 of the Land Development Code. In all Mixed-Use Developments, the infrastructure (i.e., streets, sidewalks, water, sewer, lighting, etc.) for the first 50 percent of all dwelling units shall be constructed either concurrent with the non-residential infrastructure or prior to the issuance of a building permit for any non-residential use. This infrastructure requirement is not applicable if the residential use will be vertically integrated with the non-residential use, or if the subject site is 50 acres or below in size.

B.

Mixed-Use Development.

The net trips calculated as described in Section 5.08.06.A above may be reduced by an additional eight percent if the project qualifies as a Mixed-Use Development.

C.

Pedestrian-Oriented Development

If a project qualifies as a Pedestrian-Oriented Development (POD), the net trips calculated as described in Section 5.08.06.A. may be reduced by the applicable amount shown in Table 5.08-4 below.

Table 5.08-4

POD Trip Reductions

	(A) % Residential Equivalent Development Units	(B) % Non-Residential Equivalent Development Units	(C) % Trips Reduced
a.	76—85%	15—24%	4%
b.	66—75%	25—34%	8%
c.	55—65%	35—44%	12%
d.	46—54%	45—54%	15%
e.	36—45%	55—64%	12%
f.	26—35%	65—74%	8%
g.	16—25%	75—85%	4%

 

Editor's note—Rules of Interpretation for Table 5.08-4: For purposes of computing the percentages established above, one dwelling unit or 800 square feet of non-residential space shall equal one Equivalent Development Unit. The computations shall include only the uses within the areas established in 5.08.04.B.1. above.

D.

Transit-Oriented Development

If a project qualifies as a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), the net trips calculated as described in Section 5.08.06.A may be reduced by the applicable amount shown in Table 5.08-5(a) below.

Table 5.08-5(a)

TOD Trip Reductions

Transit Level of Service (LOS)	% Trips Reduced
D—30-Minute Bus Headway, 12-Hour Service	15%
C—20-Minute Bus Headway, 14-Hour Service	20%
B—10-Minute Bus Headway, 17-Hour Service	25%
A—Less than 10-Minute Bus Headway, 19-Hour Service	30%

 

E.

Pedestrian-Oriented and Transit-Oriented Development

A proposed development that qualifies as both a Pedestrian-Oriented and Transit-Oriented Development shall reduce the number of trips calculated in accordance with Section 5.08.06.A above by combining the applicable reductions identified in Table 5.08.4 and Table 5.08-5(a). In no instance, however, shall the sum of the combined reduction exceed 40 percent.
