Oldsmar planning board forwards 2025 Concurrency Test Statement, finds capacity for two recent projects
Summary
The planning board voted 7–0 to forward the City of Oldsmar 2025 Concurrency Test Statement to council; staff reported the city has adequate potable water, sewer and transportation capacity to support two recently approved developments (a 82‑unit mixed‑use project and a 68,000 sq ft warehouse) though one roadway segment remains deficient.
The City of Oldsmar Planning Board unanimously voted June 10 to forward the city’s 2025 Concurrency Test Statement to City Council for adoption by resolution.
Tatiana Childress, Oldsmar’s planning and redevelopment director, said the annual concurrency statement evaluates whether public facilities and services — transportation, potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parks/recreation and drainage — can support approved development without degrading levels of service. She presented two major developments reviewed in 2025.
The first project, identified as Case 2302 and called The Odon, is a 6.2‑acre mixed‑use development at 500 St. Petersburg Drive with 82 townhome units, including 18 live‑work units. The project participated in the CRA stormwater buy‑in program and contributed $170,000 toward stormwater improvements; staff reported the project’s concurrency analysis estimates potable water demand at about 26,000 gallons per day and wastewater flow at about 20,500 gallons per day, with traffic operating at level of service C.
The second project is a proposed 68,000‑square‑foot speculative warehouse at 760 Burger Creek within the M1 district; staff reported estimated water and wastewater demands the city can support and that the project is in construction or will be under construction. Tatiana told the board the city currently has roughly 5,795 potable water connections with an average daily use of about 1.287 million gallons per day (64% capacity) and average daily wastewater use of about 1.742 million gallons per day (77.4% capacity).
On transportation, staff said the city uses a peak‑hour level of service D standard for arterial and collector roads and that only one facility — Forest Lakes Boulevard from Tampa Road to State Road 580 — remained deficient for the reporting period; the board heard plans for Forest Lakes Boulevard widening.
Tatiana also described adjustments to regional transit routes made by the transit authority (PSTA) and summarized the city’s recreation inventory (one boat ramp and two floating docks). The board opened a public hearing on the concurrency report, heard no public comment, and voted 7–0 to forward the report to City Council for adoption by resolution.
The concurrency test statement and associated monitoring information will be presented to City Council for formal adoption; staff noted that individual developments will still require site‑plan level engineering, stormwater and traffic review as part of permitting.
