Design Criteria Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves of greater than 200 acres.

Design Criteria Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves of greater than 200 acres. The Citrus Groves have to be within five miles of the three designated major roads: Southern Boulevard, Interstate 95, and Florida's Turnpike.

Design Criteria Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves of greater than 200 acres. The Citrus Groves have to be within five miles of the three designated major roads: Southern Boulevard, Interstate 95, and Florida's Turnpike. Assume that the conversion of selected citrus groves to housing will be 0.5.

Design Criteria Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves of greater than 200 acres. The Citrus Groves have to be within five miles of the three designated major roads: Southern Boulevard, Interstate 95, and Florida's Turnpike. Assume that the conversion of selected citrus groves to housing will be 0.5. Predict the population increase if these acres are converted to housing by using the conversion factor of 4.44 people per acre.

Population Prediction Population Prediction = (Selected Acres) x (Acres converted) x (people/acre) Population Prediction = (Selected Acres) x 0.5 x 4.44

Design Criteria – Phase 2 Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves and Recreational Golf Courses of greater than 200 acres.

Design Criteria – Phase 2 Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves and Recreational Golf Courses of greater than 200 acres. The Citrus Groves and Golf Courses have to be within five miles of the three designated major roads: Southern Boulevard, Interstate 95, and Florida's Turnpike.

Design Criteria – Phase 2 Consider Agriculture, Citrus Groves and Recreational Golf Courses of greater than 200 acres. The Citrus Groves and Golf Courses have to be within five miles of the three designated major roads: Southern Boulevard, Interstate 95, and Florida's Turnpike. Assume that the conversion of selected citrus groves to housing will be 0.5, and golf courses to housing will be 0. 2.
