=.. r • These annexations will not adversely impact the City's transportation network. E Recreation: Florida Adventist Association Smith Cattle and Grove Nye Annexation Townview Medical Arts Partnership Only the Townview Medical Arts Partnership will generate residential development, adding fewer than 500 residents. Level of service standards for Zephyrhills are indicated on REC Table 4 and REC Table 5, City of Zephyrhills Comprehensive Plan, which are attached, and indicate that more than sufficient recreational facilities are in place to handle populations of more than 20,000 and to serve the City and its residents through the horizon year of 2010. Furthermore, the Smith Cattle and Grove site is being developed as a recreational/community center for Zephyrhills and the East Pasco area. The building will be phased in, starting with 7,000 square feet and reaching a maximum size of 26,000 square feet. Included in the building will be weight rooms, aerobic areas, gymnasium, racquetball courts, classroom and youth activity room. This facility will extend the level of services through the year 2010, and meets the one major deficiency, that of a multi-purpose facility (see Table REC-5). This site will be deeded to the City. These annexations will not adversely impact the City's recreational service. 2. Analysis of the Character and Magnitude of Existing Land: (1) Florida Adventist Association: This site was former citrus grove, which was frozen during the winter freeze of 1985. It currently is a vacant, grassed site. North and west of the property are existing agricultural lands, east is residential and south is vacant land, which also was a former grove. Future land use designations for properties surrounding this site are residential. Actual densities are less than planned in the future, which allow for six units per acre. (2) Smith Cattle and Grove: This property is a wooded tract. It abuts a proposed county roadway and golf course and residential area. North, west and south of the`site is a Planned Unit Development (PUD). East is residential property. Future area land uses are designated residential and commercial. Actual densities will be less than allowed at nine units per acre. This site will be used for recreational activity. (3) Nye Annexation: This property contains a small building that previously was a used car lot office. It currently is vacant. Surrounding land uses are commercial. Existing and future land uses will remain unchanged. (4) Townview Medical Arts Partnership: This site is vacant property, with some wooded areas and some cleared, grassy areas. Actual surrounding uses are residential to the south and west, commercial to the east and agricultural on the north. Designated future land uses are residential to the north, south and west and commercial on the east. Densities will remain the same, nine units per acre. These four annexations and their future land uses are consistent with the Zephyrhills Comprehensive Plan and the future land use maps for the designated time periods of 1994 and 2010.
