AND
RECOMMENDATION
88SN0051
Central Fidelity Bank
Clover Hill Magisterial District
East line of Wicklow Lane
REQUEST: Rezoning from Agricultural (A) to Residential (R-15). A single
family residential subdivision is planned.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMEND APPROVAL AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROFFERED CONDITION ON PAGE 1.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval for the following reasons:
A. The zoning and land use requested conform to the Northern Area Land
Use and Transportation Plan.
B. The zoning and land use requested are compatible with, and compara-
ble to, surrounding development.
(NOTE: THE CONDITIONS NOTED WITH "STAFF/CPC" WERE AGREED UPON BY BOTH STAFF
AND THE COMMISSION. CONDITIONS WITH ONLY A "STAFF" ARE RECOMMENDED SOLELY BY
STAFF. CONDITIONS WITH ONLY A "CPC" ARE ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS RECOMMENDED BY
THE PLANNING COMMISSION.)
PROFFERED CONDITION
(STAFF/CPC) The lots will be subject to the conditions, covenants, limita-
tions, requirements and reservations of Bexley, Section IX as
recorded in the Clerk's Office, Circuit Court of Chesterfield
County in Deed Book 1500, Page 272 and the Construction Guide-
lines as recorded in Deed Book 1385, Page 597, provided such
conditions, covenants, limitations, requirements and reserva-
tion do not conflict with any requirements of the Zoning Ordi-
nance.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Location: Fronting approximately 781 feet on the east
line of Wicklow Lane, across from Kings
Crown Road. Tax Map 39-14 (1) Part of
Parcel 6 (Sheet 14).
Existing Zoning: A
Size: 4.1 acres
Existing Land Use: Vacant
Adjacent Zoning & Land Use: North - R-15; Single family residential
South - A; Single family residential
or vacant
East - R-15; Single family residential
or vacant
West - A and R-15; Single family
residential or vacant
Utilities: A 16 inch water line lies along the north-
west side of Wicklow Lane, approximately 50
feet from the northwest property line of
the site. The source of water is the Swift
Creek Reservoir. Off-site easements are
not anticipated. Use of public water is
required by Ordinance.
An 8 inch sewer line lies along the unnamed
tributary of Falling Creek, parallel to the
southeast property line of this site. The
site lies within the Falling Creek drainage
basin. It is served by the Falling Creek
Treatment Plant. Use of public sewer is
required by Ordinance.
Environmental Engineering: The site drains to the rear of the proposed
lots and then into a small pond and, ulti-
mately, into Falling Creek. A ditch to the
rear of the property is eroding in some
places. However, no drainage or erosion
problems are anticipated based on the
proposed use if the lots are not cleared in
entirety. The need for off-site easements
is not anticipated. As large homes will
probably be built on these lots, individual
erosion control plans should be submitted
to protect the pond.
Schools: Approximately 5 students would be generated
by this request. The site in the Provi-
dence Elementary School attendance zone:
capacity - 774, enrollment - 608; Provi-
dence Middle School attendance zone:
capacity - 1,260, enrollment - 1,252;
Monacan High School attendance zone:

capacity - 1,750, enrollment - 1,839. This
development represents no significant
impact on the school system.
Fire Service: Wagstaff Fire Station, Company 110. At
present, fire service capability is good.
County water and fire hydrants should be
provided for fire protection in compliance
with nationally recognized standards.
General Plan
(Northern Area Land
Use and Transporta-
tion Plan)•
•
Medium density
residential
(1.51 to 4.00 units/acre)
Transportation: This proposed development could generate
approximately sixty (60) average daily
trips. These vehicles would be initially
distributed al ong Wicklow Lane, which had a
1986 traffic count of seventy-eight (78)
vehicles per day. This proposed develop-
ment should h ave a minimum impact on the
existing road network.
DISCUSSION
The applicant is requesting rezoning from Agricultural (A) to Residential
(R-15) of 4.1 acres. A single family residential subdivision of six (6)
lots, served by public water and sewer, is planned.
The applicant had submitted a tentative plat of this 4.1 acre tract for
the January 1988 Planning Commission meeting as part of Bexley, Section
13. Approval was not granted because this part of the proposed tentative
was zoned Agricultural (A). That proposed tentative plat did, however,
indicate six (6) lots with an average size of 29,800 square feet, and
ranging from 21,500 square feet to over 33,000 square feet. This number
of lots results in a density of 1.46 units/acre, or 1.32 units/acre, if
the right of way which has already been platted, were included.
In evaluating this request, staff has considered the designation of the
Northern Area Land Use and Transportation Plan, as well as surrounding
development.
The Northern Area Land Use and Transportation Plan designates medium
density residential uses (1.51 to 4.00 units/acre) for this area. Al-
though the density of the proposed plat falls at the low end of this
range, it is comparable to surrounding development.
Surrounding the development on the north and east are Bexley, Sections 3
and 8. These sections, which included rights of way to service lots,
included in subsequent sections, have an average density of approximately
0.87 units/acre, and an average lot size of 45,300 square feet. Lot
3 88SN0051/BSJUL8/JULY27P
sizes range from approximately 26,000 square feet to over 80,000 square
feet.
Directly across Wicklow Lane, the part of Bexley, Section 13, granted
tentative approval, has an average density of 1.68 units/acre, an average
lot size of approximately 21,300 square feet, and a range of lot sizes
from approximately 19,800 square feet to over 24,000 square feet.
Adjoining the site on the west is Lake George Hamlet. Lots in this
subdivision, which adjoin the subject site, range in size from approxi-
mately 29,500 square feet to 34,300 square feet.
Because the proposed rezoning and development would be comparable to, and
compatible with, the surrounding development, and because it also con-
forms to the designation of the Northern Area Land Use and Transportation
Plan, staff recommends approval of this request.
