RE: Okaloosa County 15-01ESR Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment
Dear Mr. Kampert:
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District Three, has reviewed the proposed
Comprehensive Plan Amendment for the Shoal River Ranch Phase I, transmitted under the
Expedited State Review process (transmitted by the county on February 4, 2015) in accordance
with the requirements of Florida Statutes (F.S.) Chapter 163. The Department offers Okaloosa
County the following comments and recommendations for your consideration regarding the
proposed amendment.
CPA 15-01 (Map Amendment):
The site that is the subject to this amendment is located on the south side of US 90 east of
Crestview, Florida, consisting of 718 acres. The comprehensive plan amendment proposes to
change the existing Future Land Use (FLU) designation from 718 acres of Okaloosa County
Agricultural (AA) to 718 acres of Industrial (I-1). It should be noted that of the 718 acres, only
650 acres of upland area have been deemed developable. This figure was used to calculate gross
floor area (GFA), only 25% of this area will be developed.
According to the existing FLU designations the maximum development that can occur on the
650 acres of AA (F.A.R. of 0.1) is 65 dwelling units (/ DUs/10 Acres), or 2,831,400 non-
residential commercial (Tractor Supply Store). These land uses would create 71 and 3,939 p.m.
peak hour trips, respectively. According to the proposed FLU designation, the maximum
development that can occur on the 650 acres of I-1 is, 2,600 dwelling units (4 DUs/Acre), or
7,078,500 square feet on Non-Residential (/ndustrial Park) which would result in 1,972 and
5,552 p.m. peak hour trips, respectively. As indicated in the following table, the proposed
development could result in a net increase of 3,489 p.m. peak hour trips.

*Mitigation should be identified for each adversity based on the strategies identified in the traffic study:
1) Traffic Impact Fee
2) Proportionate Fair Share (PFSC) for Crestview Bypass
3) Potential Proportionate Fair Share (PFSC) for Jericho Road and I-10 Interchange
We appreciate the opportunity to participate in this review process. The transportation review has
revealed that several State road segments analyzed are projected to exceed capacity. FDOT
recognizes that any significant impacts on State facilities and resources will be eliminated,
_reduced, or mitigated through the mitigation strategies as outlined in the transportation study
provided by the county (see above table).
The FDOT respectfully requests to participate in the future transmittal of the Okaloosa Adopted
Plan. If you have any questions regarding the aforementioned review, you may contact me at
(850) 330-1530 or by e-mail at Virgie.Bowen@dot.state.fl.us.
