during rezonings, personal appearances - zoning, development; major and minor modifications/PD; DRI reviews;
concurrency; site plans; impact fees; traffic claming; and right-of-way vacating requests as a part of
the Zoning and DRI programs. Reviewer comments become part of the development approval. Concurrency management
for transportation is included in the reviews as well as Level of Service analysis of the existing and
future roadway impacts of the proposed development.
Right-of-Way Vacations Staff Representative:
Bill
McCall, PE
Right-of-way (ROW) dedications are predicated on the need for future roadway laneage as shown in
the Long Range Transportation Map as found in the Hillsborough County Comprehensive Plan. This map is
also used to determine the locational criteria used in regulating the maximum square footages for certain
land uses. The width of the roadway and associated right-of-way widths, are determined using Hillsborough
County standards as supplied by the Public Works Department and Real
Estate Department of Hillsborough County.
Hillsborough County has a Residential Traffic Control Ordinance, which allows neighborhoods to install
traffic calming and traffic controls on residential streets. The neighborhood residents must approve
these improvements. The Public Works Department has set up a process for county residents to request
traffic slowing speed bumps and other improvements on residential streets. Please contact Hillsborough
County Public Works Department for additional information
Development of Regional Impact (DRI's) Staff Representative: Charles
E. White, AICP
A DRI is a development that, because of its character, magnitude, or location would have a substantial
effect upon the health, safety, or welfare of citizens of more than one county. Chapter 380.06, Florida
Statutes ("F.S.") and Rules 9J-2.001 through 9J-2.0256, Florida Administrative Code ("F.A.C."), govern
the DRI process.
The Florida
Department of Community Affairs web site will provide a detailed discussion of the DRI process and
provides downloadable DRI application forms. Legislation and rules applicable to the DRI process may
also be found at this web site.
