§ 68-160. Proportionate fair share program and the process for the application of concurrency management for transportation facilities.

The purpose of the proportionate fair share provisions in this section is to establish a method whereby the impacts of development on transportation facilities can be mitigated by the cooperative efforts of the public and private sectors, to be known as the proportionate fair share program, as required by and in a manner consistent with F.S. § 163.3180(16). The proportionate fair share program represents an alternative method for meeting concurrency requirements and provides for the application of concurrency management provisions in a coordinated and cooperative manner. In addition, this section adopts the county's approach to concurrency management for transportation facilities. In this section, the term deficient facility means a road operating below the adopted level of service standard.

(a)

Where applicable, the city shall participate in the metropolitan planning organization (MPO) annual process of establishing a countywide concurrency corridor map.

(b)

Where applicable, the city shall adopt the metropolitan planning organization's countywide approach to the application of concurrency management for transportation facilities.

(c)

Due to its small size and lack of deficient facilities, the city's transportation concurrency matters are reviewed and monitored by the county. For that reason, it is important that the city's application of concurrency management for transportation facilities and the proportionate fair share program coordinate with and mirror sections 134-221 through 134-231 of the county land development code which sets out the county's application of concurrency management for transportation facilities, as well as the proportionate fair share program as required by F.S. ch. 163. As such, for purposes of concurrency management for transportation facilities and proportionate fair share, the city will coordinate with the county and utilize the most recently adopted version of sections 134-221 through 134-231 of the county land development code, inserting the terminology "Treasure Island" or "city" in place of "Pinellas County" or "county" as applicable.
