§ 62-606. Developments of regional impact.

(a)

All developments of regional impact shall undergo a preliminary concurrency evaluation as part of staff review prior to the issuance of the development of regional impact (DRI) development order. The DRI development order, where it includes references to schedules of improvements required to be installed prior to the continuance of the project based upon a monitoring program, shall be written in a manner consistent with the county comprehensive plan and this article with respect to acceptable levels of service, service areas, roadway segments or intersections, or other related factors.

(b)

Where the monitoring program included in the DRI development order of a development of regional impact makes reference to a level of service measurement, such measurement shall take into account the impacts of other applicable development orders that have been issued by the county but which otherwise may not be revealed by the level of service measurement.

(c)

Each subsequent development order for a site plan, subdivision or building permit approval which will be located within the development of regional impact final development order shall also undergo a concurrency evaluation for monitoring. Should a concurrency evaluation for a final development order show that the level of service of a facility affected by the development of regional impact is deteriorating at a faster rate than what was projected by the development of regional impact development order, the county shall suspend the further issuance of development orders if a deficiency occurs until the necessary improvements are committed, even where such action would cause the schedule of improvements approved as part of the initial DRI development order to be accelerated.

(d)

Developments of regional impact approved by the board of county commissioners prior to April 7, 1989, shall be exempt from the provisions of this article; however, any amendments to previously exempted developments of regional impact shall not be exempted.
