E. ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURES & IMPACT ON INFRASTRUCTURE:
1. Environmental Features
The subject parcels are located within the Lake Jackson drainage basin. All of the subject
parcels are outside the Special Development Zone for Lake Jackson.
The original subject parcel is developed with an office building and associated parking lot.
Approximately 60 percent of the parcel is impervious. Approximately 5.9 acres (60 percent)
of the 9.9 acres that comprise the total area of the subject properties are impervious.
County environmentally sensitive area maps indicate no other significant environmentally
sensitive features in the subject area.
2. Water/Sewer
The subject property is inside the established Urban Services Area. According to the City of
Tallahassee, adequate water and sewer services are available for the subject properties.
3. Other
Roads
Timberlane Road is a County road that is classified functionally as a major collector with
segments in the County and segments in the City. A concurrency analysis, conducted by City
staff and shared with County staff, indicated no impacts to the available traffic capacity from
the proposed use of the original subject property as a dental office under the terms of the
agreement with the City.
At present, there are no identified capacity issues along that segment of Timberlane Road
between Market Street and Timberlane School Road. Since traffic impacts are calculated on a
site by site basis and by proposed use, it cannot be determined what the potential impacts
may be if the land use amendment is adopted. An estimation of potential impacts based on
residential uses is not useful since it is unlikely that any conversions of existing offices to
residential will occur in this location.
Transit Availability
StarMetro has two existing bus routes that offer service within walking distance of the
subject property. The Red Hills route passes approximately 0.5 miles from the property, and
the Dogwood route passes approximately 0.6 miles from the property.
Bicycle/Pedestrian Facilities Availability
Am existing sidewalk is located on the south side of Timberlane Road from Timberlane
School Road to Thomasville Road. No bicycle facilities exist along Timberlane Road.
The subject area is considered to be part of the Market District, which is being addressed
through the Market District Placemaking Plan. The Plan includes objectives that include
creating an interconnected district that links businesses and neighborhoods, and improving
