It is thus maintained that the reasons used to support the existing zoning still apply to the requested time extension. It should be noted,however,that since the CN-20 zoning was approved in 2006,the only substantive change to the Zoning Code was the adoption of the concurrency provision, Section 25-2-46. Specifically,it requires that all rezoning, including time extension, address traffic,potable water,and civil defense siren concerns. Relative to traffic,the concurrency provision requires a Traffic Impact Analysis Report("TIAR") if more than fifty(50)trips are generated by a project during the peak hours. In this situation,the proposed office use for the two structures with a combined area of 2,500±/- square feet, generates less turning movements or traffic than a retail shop. According to the Tnstitute of Traffic Engineering manual(the manual used by traffic engineers in preparing Traffic Impact Analysis Report),the AM/PM trip generation for office use is 1.49 trips per 1,000 square feet. Thus,for a maximum 4,000 square foot office building,the projected movements would be 5.96 or less than six (6) movements. Thus, the projected use does not reach the TIAR"threshold". Notwithstanding not reaching the TIAR"threshold", of these projected maximum six (6)AM/PM movements, it is assumed that at least 50% or three (3)movements would be left turn movements into the project site from Manono Street. Given the projected low volume,the movements into the project site should not significantly impede traffic along Manono Street. County water for the project is still available.from either an 8-inch line fronting Manono Street. The 8-inch line should be sufficient to address fire flow requirements.
