The Regional Planning Council (RPC) plays a primary role in the DRI process, coordinating the multi-agency review activities at the regional level and reviewing the application for consistency with adopted state and regional plans. The RPC will hold a public hearing for the adoption of a regional position on the application, which is then forwarded to the local government of jurisdiction for its consideration. The RPC is an advisory body to the local government and so does not approve or deny applications.
The local planning agency (LPA) plays a lead role in the identification of local issues or concerns relative to the project and will take the recommended conditions of approval from the RPC and combine them with locally oriented conditions of approval in the construction of an overall development order. The local government's governing body will also conduct a public hearing on the project, at which time it will consider the reports of the RPC and LPA. It is the entity which ultimately approves or denies the authorization for the project to develop, through the issuance of a binding Development Order (DO).
The datasets used to compile this shapefile were obtained by FGDL via phone and email requests to County Property Appraisers, Planning Departments, GIS departments, and Regional Planning Councils. Certain datasets were also downloaded from county websites when available.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because of a lack of existing spatial information for DRI's located in the Panhandle and the Treasure Coast regions, the GeoPlan Center, using 2004 parcel data, created DRI polygon boundaries from a variety of source information (Maps, Parcel Owner Information, Parcel Site Legal Description Information, etc).
The following regional planning councils have the polygon information and it is currently under review, however, they have not as of yet signed off on the spatial information provided in this shapefile. - Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council - West Florida Regional Planning Council - Apalachee Regional Planning Council
Polygons that have been digitized in house can be located through the [SOURCE] field where the source is equal to GeoPlan Center.
A note about data scale:
Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data.
1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger.
Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation. For more information regarding scale and accuracy, see our webpage at: <http://geoplan.ufl.edu/education.html>

Polygon boundaries were downloaded or received via email from various sources. The boundaries were first reprojected to FGDL Albers. Then individual DRI datasets were merged into one dataset.
GeoPlan downloaded a spreadsheet (adastatlist.xls) of DRI attribute information from the FDCA website: <http://www.dca.state.fl.us/fdcp/dcp/Procedures/index.cfm>. The spreadsheet was converted to a DBF table.
DRI polygons were spatially identified using information from the DCA table and added the corresponding DCA ADA number was added to each polygon.
Performed a table join between the statewide polygon DRI layer and the DCA table, based on the DRI's ADA number (ADA_NO field).
-DESCRIPT item was added based on the item PROJ_NAME. -Added SOURCE field and calculated it to represent the source of each of the polygons. -Added FGDLAQDATE and calculated it to the date the information was received. -Added AUTOID. -Moved DESCRIPT item to the end of table.

When working on DRI project and maps are used, we will clean up boundaries with use of aerials and other landmark data and information wherever possible. Originally, data was extracted from hardcopy DRI applications and strange sources such as newspapers, were used to fill in the locational gaps.

The DRI's that were denied or abandoned are not included, although some may be inactive (see Levy County).
This GIS layer was produced by the North Central Florida Regional Planning Council (NCFRPC) under contract with FDOT District 2 in early 2005. The general purpose is to create regional maps of "sociocultural" features, including hospitals, parks, cemeteries, historical structures, and others. The maps will provide the FDOT with improved spatial information required for planning roadway projects.
Data development is a component of the Efficient Transportation Decision Making Process (ETDM).
