ORDINANCE N0.360-C
service C represents stable conditions. However, ability to maneuver and change
lanes in mid-block locations maybe more restricted than in level of service B, and
longer queues or adverse travel speeds of about 50 percent of the average free
flow speed for the arterial class exist. Motorists will experience an appreciable
tension while driving.
State Road 50 (a.k.a. Highway 50) -Level of Service D. Level of service D
borders on a range in which small increases in flow may cause substantial
increases in approach delay and, hence, decreases in arterial speed. This may be
due to adverse signal progression, inappropriate signal timing, high volumes, or
some combination of these. Average travel speeds are about 40 percent of free
flow speed.
b. Minor arterials: Level of service D, as stated in subsection (1) a. of this
section.
c. Local collectors: Level of service D, as stated in subsection (1) a. of this
section.

the standard state department of transportation methods for evaluation of level of
service and capacity shall be used, subject to modifications based on travel speed
studies.
(2) Sanitary sewer. The standard for sanitary sewer is 77.5 gallons per capita, per day.
(3) Solid waste. The standard for solid waste is collection of up to 6.63 pounds per
capita, per day.
(4) Stormwater drainage. The standard for stormwater drainage is the ten-year, two-
hour storm event (pre- and post-development discharge volume design at 50-year, 24-
hour storm event; Florida Administrative Code Rule 40C-42 for OFW waters; and
Florida Administrative Code Rules 40C-4 and 40C-40 for closed basins, where
