	Why Florida's Concurrency Principle For Controlling New Development By Regulating Road Construction Does Not - And ...
		The second fundamental flaw in the concurrency principle is that, in a free country, a community's future growth should not be - and probably cannot be - determined by the adequacy of its roadways at any given moment.
		The overall ineffectiveness of the road concurrency policy is proven by the fact that Florida's total population has continued to rise sharply - up 23.5 percent in the 1990s alone - in spite of obvious shortfalls in the state's roads and other infrastructures.
		Another major problem with concurrency is that key public bodies - including the state legislature - do not want to raise taxes; therefore, they may refuse to fund the road construction that has been planned to offset new developments.

	Concurrency Management Program FAQ - King County Road Services Division
		Concurrency means that transportation facilities must be available to carry the traffic of a proposed development at County level of service standards, or else the proposed development cannot be approved.
		Concurrency is determined by adding the traffic from the proposed development to the traffic already on the roads and then calculating the projected level of service.
		Concurrency cannot be transferred to other parcels (because they may be in different concurrency zones or different land uses).

	Concurrency (road) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		North 77 is concurrent with South 81 and vice versa.
		Only one road number (typically that of the more heavily used route) is ever shown on road signs however; the other road is either bracketed on the sign, implying that the major route leads to a junction with the minor route (which it will do at the end of the concurrency), or left off altogether.
		A counter-example is the concurrency of the A6 and A591 south of Kendal, where, unusually, a sign gives both roads equal status as "A591/A6".

	ACM Computing Surveys 28A(4): Programming Languages, Analysis Tools and Concurrency Theory
		Concurrency theory has the potential for entering main stream computing as the need for programming languages with advanced and well understood concurrency models increas - particularly fueled by the emergence of mobile agents on the internet, but also because most systems in the future will be distributed and highly concurrent.
		A good sign of maturity of concurrency theory is that it is starting to shed new light on very fundamental aspects of computing in general, such as logic, the lambda-calculus, distributed, object oriented and constraint programming.
		Thus concurrency theory is now at a stage where it has the potential to move decisively out of its traditional niche as an enrichment to formal methods and into main stream computing.

	Guide to Highway Multiplexes - Central PA/MD Roads
		Highway multiplexes (also called concurrencies or overlaps) are found in nearly every state in the United States, as well as in many Canadian provinces and many nations worldwide.
		In such areas, a section of road may be signed with a certain number of designations (according to the external system) while the department of transportation's referencing or bookkeeping system (the internal system) may have a different number of designations.
		For example, consider the case of a section of highway that is signed with two designations (like a duplex) so that motorists can follow either route, while the department of transportation refers to it with a single designation for simplicity.

		In addition, road use by the area’s existing residents increased substantially, causing traffic to grow twice as fast as the population.
		He said that a concurrency policy was not a foregone conclusion, and that he hoped the group would reach a consensus, with all points of view fully taken into account.
		A demand-side concurrency requirement could be established for land acquisition, with development not permitted unless there is assurance of adequate land for schools, public safety facilities, parks, libraries, or other public facilities.

	Talgov.com - Businesses - Development - Concurrency - FAQ
		"Concurrency" is a shorthand expression for a set of land use regulations that local governments are required (by the Florida Legislature) to adopt to ensure that new development does not outstrip local government’s ability to handle it.
		For a development to "be concurrent" or "meet concurrency" the local government must have enough infrastructure capacity to serve each proposed development.
		During the course of a concurrency review the applicant may also be asked to provide additional “sufficiency” information regarding the proposed project, the traffic analysis or the stormwater analysis.

		For the purposes of the Working Group, the transportation system means some 2050 miles of roads, streets and highways throughout the County, especially the 1430 miles within the jurisdiction of County government.
		On the demand-side of concurrency, the Working Group recommends that the County build upon the policy that is already implicit in ZDO 1007.02.
		The County should use an adequacy standard of LOS "D", except that roads serving industrial and high employment commercial development, as well as roads in the immediate vicinity of regional centers and mass transit hubs, could be LOS "E".

	About Concurrency
		At the heart of Concurrency is our commitment to our customers and our dedication to helping them find better ways to leverage information technology to fulfill their business strategies.
		Concurrency was founded in 1989 based on the philosophy that the use of information technology is a strategic endeavor—a means to an end and not the end itself—that deploying technology outside of a strategic context is simply an exercise—and that to bring real value, technology must be woven into the fabric of the organization.
		Concurrency is uniquely suited to help organizations in this endeavor.

		Water supply, transportation (roads), wastewater treatment, solid waste, storm drainage, and recreation and open space are the public facilities subject to concurrency requirements.
		Roads are used both for access to property and to carry through traffic.
		The location and design of Sanibel streets and roads, as well as the traffic control techniques used, should take into consideration the non-urban, tropical, barrier island environment of the community to ensure, within the limits of safety, that this character is maintained.

		These include roads that operate with deficient levels of service where improvements may be planned or scheduled, beyond the next three years, to alleviate the substandard level of service conditions.
		The amount at which the threshold can be exceeded is dependent upon conditions affecting the adjacent roadway, the type of development being proposed, the characteristics of the surrounding land uses and the extent that traffic impacts are reduced.
		Questions about concurrency, including the use of transportation management plan strategies, may also be addressed by contacting the Planning Department at (727) 464-8200.

	News Leader - Fernandina Beach, Florida (Amelia Island)
		Traffic concurrency is the ability of a road system to handle the traffic impact of a new development.
		Mullin said the purpose of a moratorium is to allow the county to better deal with these situations when roads are near capacity and concurrency is an issue.
		Currently, the county deals with concurrency during a "developer agreement." If the development fails concurrency, then the county charges $3,000 for every car or "trip" the development is short.

		The law basically states that a local government (municipality or county) cannot approve a new development unless it finds that there will be adequate transportation facilities to serve the traffic from that new development, at the time of occupancy.
		Concurrency may be satisfied if improvements to the overcapacity roadway are provided for in an enforceable development agreement, and will be available prior to certificates of occupancy.
		A concurrency map is published on a regular basis which generally shows the exception areas and the overcapacity links.

	TheNewsTribune.com \| Tacoma, WA \| Growth Management Act
		The Growth Management Act directed counties and cities to ensure road improvements or other transportation fixes necessary to serve new homes, supermarkets and offices were made "concurrent" with, or at the same time as, the development.
		The promise that roads would keep pace with growth largely was the reason why the Growth Management Act passed, said Richard Aramburu, a Seattle attorney who has practiced land-use and environmental law since 1970.
		While the 1990 growth law directed counties and cities to make sure roads and infrastructure are built in conjunction with developments, it let local governments interpret the meaning of concurrency.

	The county's fig leaf (Seattle Weekly)
		A concurrency certificate—the first step in getting a housing project approved—is the county's determination that the project will not overly strain the surrounding road system; under the state's Growth Management Act, cities and counties are only supposed to approve as much development as their transportation infrastructure can handle.
		The act also specifies that housing developments are not to be measured against the present-day road system but against the improved or expanded systems that will be on line six years ahead, when the development presumably would be finished.
		Under the county's rules, a development can pass concurrency so long as it does not send more than one-third of its total car trips onto an overloaded road, going the peak direction, during the peak hour of the evening commute.

		A concurrency issue is more likely to occur with human users as the read/update/write cycle is likely to take much longer.
		Unfortunately, unlike most other kinds of concurrency conflicts, they are hard to prevent due to the inherent multi-user nature of most database applications.

	Transportation Impact Fees
		Impact fees are only used to fund facilities, such as roads, schools, and parks, that are directly associated with the new development.
		GMA impact fees are only authorized for public streets and roads; publicly owned parks, open space, and recreation facilities; school facilities; and fire protection facilities in jurisdictions that are not part of a fire district.
		Given the huge cost of building new roads and upgrading existing roads, transportation impact fees for streets and roads are probably the most commonly imposed of all types of impact fees in Washington.

		Yet only in the Brandon area has development been severely restrained by the county's enforcement of road concurrency, said Campbell, the county's transportation director in the planning and growth management department.
		All concurrency does, McClendon said, is get developers to widen roads to accommodate their projects.

	Reason Foundation Commentary: Virginia's Road to Ruin
		This was not an oversight; it was intended to force governments to appropriate funds for new road capacity to comply with the law.
		Second, local governments were granted the authority to allow developers to build in congested areas in return for a payment equal to the cost of providing the additional capacity needed to offset the traffic generated by their projects.
		Second, the state gutted its concurrency requirement when it became apparent that it was unworkable; as a result, concurrency has been largely ineffective at achieving the desired goal of reducing traffic congestion.

		As a consequence he believes that concurrency will become a first class concern for more developers (including language designers) and language there will be a resurgence in interest in what he calls 'efficient languages'.
		I'm currently doing a lot more work with highly concurrent GUI applications in Java and discovering that there's a shortage of sensible guidelines out there on designing applications in the face of pervasive multi-threading or even ways of re-organising standard design patterns like MVC to handle inter-thread communications.
		The authors of CTM and a few others have called shared-state concurrency "the wrong default" and proposed teaching simpler to reason about models to replace it, namely declarative concurrency and message-passing concurrency (the model of Erlang and E).
