88SN0045 ~4a~-~~;-X9$8-6P6 ~et~~*-~9;-X988-6P6 Asgss~-~6;-X988-6P6 September 28, 1988 BS REQUEST ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION 88SN0045 Tedco Equities-Northgate Clover Hill Magisterial District Northwest quadrant of Hull Street Road and Harbour Pointe Parkway REQUEST: Amendment to Conditional Use Planned Developments (Cases 745021 and 85S002) to permit use exceptions. A shopping center and office complex is planned. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION RECOMMEND APPROVAL SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS ON PAGE 2. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Recommend denial for the following reasons: A. The size, scale, and location of the proposed shopping center is incompatible with existing area single family residential develop- ment. Specifically, a number of subdivisions in Harbour Pointe, lie immediately adjacent to the request site or immediately across Harbour Pointe Parkway. Traditionally, development of less intense uses adjacent to subdivisions has been encouraged, thereby accom- modating an appropriate transition between intense uses, such as community scale shopping centers, and single family residential neighborhoods. B. The subject site is located at the intersection of a major arterial and the entrance into a residential neighborhood. Shopping centers of the size and scale proposed with this request should generally be located along major arterial roads at their intersections with other arterial roads. Such locations provide convenience access to larger service areas. Specifically, a community scale shopping center with large tenants will attract customers from a community wide trade area. Such centers should be located so as to promote public conve- nience and easy accessibility. C. The property is currently zoned Residential (R-7), Office Business (0), and Light Industrial (M-1) and, through previous zonings, can be developed for a number of commercial, office, light industrial, and residential uses. Through the existing Conditional Use Planned Development and schematic plan processes, sufficient controls exist to ensure quality development, land use transition, and compatibil- ity. Specifically, through the schematic plan review process, the Commission may address conditions deemed necessary to mitigate the impact that any current permitted use may have upon area residents and ensure that development is of the quality desired along this portion of the Hull Street Road Corridor. (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.) CONDITIONS AS RECOMMENDED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION (CPC) 1. The following conditions notwithstanding, the plan prepared by D.I. Design and Development Consultant, Inc., revised August 15, 1988, shall be considered the Conceptual Master Plan. (CPC) (CPC) 2.

GENERAL INFORMATION Location: Fronts approximately 2,856 feet on the north line of Hull Street Road and approxi- mately 2,448 feet on the southwest line of Harbour Pointe Parkway, and located in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of these roads. Tax Map 61-16 (1) Parcel 2 and Part of Parcels 1 and 5 (Sheet 20). Existing Zoning: R-7, M-1, and 0 with Conditional Use Planned Development Size: 53.0 acres. Existing Land Use: Single family residential or vacant Adjacent Zoning & Land Use: North - R-7 and 0 with Conditional Use Planned Development; Single family residential or vacant South - M-1 and 0 with Conditional Use Planned Development and A; Single family residential or vacant East - 0 with Conditional Use Planned Development; Vacant West - M-1 with Conditional Use Planned Development; Industrial or vacant Utilities: Twenty-four (24) inch water line located along Hull Street Road. Twelve (12) inch water line located along Harbour Pointe Parkway and extends across the site. Use of public water recommended and intended. Located in Upper Swift Creek sewage drain- age area. Eighteen (18) inch sewer line located along northern boundary of the Harbour Pointe development, with several eight (8) inch extensions available to serve the site. Several dry lines are also located along Harbour Pointe Parkway. Use of public sewer recommended and intended. Environmental Engineering: Site drains north-northwest into Swift Creek. No on- or off-site drainage and/or 5 88SN0045/BSSEP8/SEPT28L erosion problems exist with the exception of discoloration experienced by Swift Creek during rains. Developer must submit plans for erosion and sediment control to En- vironmental Engineering. Such plans must meet all standards set forth in the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook (Second Edition, 1980). Fire Service: Clover Hill Fire Station Company 4~7. At present, fire service capability is good. Provide County water flows, fire hydrants, and fire lanes for fire protection purposes in compliance with nationally recognized standards. General Plan (Powhite Route 288 Development Area Land Use and Transportation Plan): Light industry and office Transportation: While the applicant has agreed to limit the commercial square footage to 225,000 square feet, exclusive of out-parcels, there is no limitation on the square footage for other permitted uses; therefore, it is difficult to anticipate traffic generation. Based on a revised traffic report, Brandermill Landing, consisting of 54,100 square feet of general office space and 278,000 square feet of retail space, will generate approx- imately 15,309 average daily trips. These vehicles will be distributed along Harbour .. Pointe Parkway, which had a 1986 traffic count of 920 vehicles per day, and Hull Street Road, which had a 1987 traffic count of 20,410 vehicles per day. The Powhite/Route 288 Development Area Land Use and Transportation Plan identifies Route 360 as a major arterial with a recom- mended right of way width of 120 to 200 feet. The applicant has proffered right of way dedication of 100 feet, from the centerline of Route 360, in accordance with that Plan. The applicant has proffered that this parcel will be developed under the Corridor Overlay District Standards; therefore, the schematic and site plans must adhere to those standards relative to access and 6 ~88SN0045/BSSEP8/SEPT28L internal circulation. A revised traffic analysis has been submitted for the re- quested densities. The analysis addresses a twenty (20) year projection on local traffic, assumes traffic volumes for vacant parcels within Harbour Pointe not included in this request, assumes traffic volumes for anticipated development south of Route 360, proposes modifications to the cross- overs along Route 360 and other relevant factors. The Textual Statement attached hereto outlines the road improvements which the applicant has agreed to provide. These road improvements should adequately miti- gate the traffic impact of the development. The revised conceptual Master Plan depicts three (3) direct access driveways to Route 360 and an additional access to Route 360 via Harbour Pointe Parkway. The westernmost access to Route 360 will align Deer Run Drive at an existing crossover. This entrance/exit should accommodate through traffic movement directly into this development. In addition, the planned service drive, which will provide emergency access for the residents of Harbour Landing and access to adjacent property to the west, should connect to this service drive as a "T" intersection. The design shown on the revised Master Plan is generally acceptable. Traffic signals are anticipated at the Deer Run/western access/Route 360 intersection and the Harbour Pointe/Mockingbird/Route 360 intersection. Due to the proximity of the proposed middle access to these antic- ipated signalized intersections, a traffic signal should not be installed at this middle access. Therefore, the project should be designed and constructed to encourage drivers desiring to turn left to utilize the two (2) planned signalized intersections. Modif ications to other existing crossovers along Route 360 may be necessary. Access to Harbour Pointe Parkway should also be provided so that trips to the development from the adjoining neighborhood will not be forced to use Route 360. The exact location of the access will be 7 88SN0045/BSSEP8/SEPT28L determined by the Transportation Department at the time of schematic plan review. At the time of schematic plan review, staff will make specific recommendations regard- ing access design and circulation, plus permitted densities for this project, based on proposed roadway improvements. DISCUSSION On May 8, 1974, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation by the Planning Commission, approved rezoning with Conditional Use Planned Development to permit a mixed use development on the request property and adjacent properties to the north, east, and west (Case 745021, Brandermill). With this zoning, a village center, to include office, retail, and residential uses, an elementary school site, and an office/light industrial complex, were planned. Subsequently, on February 27, 1985, the Board approved a rezoning plus an amendment to Case 74S021 on portions of the request property and property to the east (Case 855002). With this zoning, the elementary school site was eliminated and an office/industrial complex with conference center and supporting com- mercial uses was approved. The Residential (R-7) property, which was to be occupied by a portion of the elementary school was zoned to allow residential uses. The current request is for amendment to Cases 74S021 and 85S002 to permit a shopping center on a portion of the request property. The current zoning and Conditional Use Planned Development (Case 745021 and 85S002) permit the following land uses on the request property: A. On the Light Industrial (M-1) portion of the property: 1. All Light Industrial (M-1) uses. 2. Recreational establishments (indoor and outdoor). 3. Contractors offices and display rooms. 4. Boat sales, including outdoor storage and display provided that not more than five (5) boats shall be visible from a public street. 5. Carpenter and cabinet shops. 6.

Convention or conference center including, but not limited to, meeting rooms, auditorium, entertainment, dining, overnight accommodations and other related facilities. 31. Fraternal, philanthropic or other charitable uses. C. On the Residential (R-7) portion of the property, residential land uses are permitted. Conditions were imposed to address concerns relative to the screening of loading areas and other outdoor activities, buffering of uses from area residents, and provision of open space. As previously noted, the current request is for an amendment to permit a community scale shopping center/office complex on the request property. The applicant intends to develop approximately 225,000 square feet of net retail space, with several large tenants, plus several office buildings and retail pad sites along the Hull Street Road frontage (see the at- tached Textual Statement). The gross square footage of retail space is expected to be somewhat larger than the proffered net retail space. The size, scale, and location of the proposed shopping center. is incompatible with existing single family residential development in the area. Specif- ically, a large number of residences, in several subdivisions of Harbour 10 ~8SN0045/BSSEP8/SEPT28L Pointe, lay immediately adjacent to the request site or adjacent to the site across Harbour Pointe Parkway. Traditionally, the Commission and Board have encouraged transitional types of development adjacent to subdivisions.. A smaller, neighborhood-oriented shopping center incor- porated into a mixed use development with office/warehouse, office, and/or high density residential uses between the shopping center and area subdivisions would represent an appropriate mix of uses and provide transition between the Hull Street Road Corridor and existing residential development in Harbour Pointe. In addition, a neighborhood scale shop- ping center would serve the immediate neighborhoods without attracting traffic into the area from the larger community. A community scale shopping center would serve community-wide trade areas rather than the immediate neighborhood. Shopping centers of the size and scale proposed with this request should generally be located along major arterial roads at their intersections with other arterial roads. Specifically, a community scale shopping center of the size proposed, having large tenants, will attract customers to this portion of the Hull Street Road Corridor from a wide trade area. Therefore, community scale centers should be located so as to promote public convenience and accessibility. It should be noted that the nearest existing arterial intersections are located at North Spring Run Road, approximately 2,500 feet to the west of the request property, and Old Hundred Road, approximately 4,500 feet east of the request property. Community scale shopping centers have either been developed or are planned for construction at these intersections with Hull Street Road. In addition, zoning for a regional scale shopping center has recently been approved for property in the vicinity of the Hull Street Road/Route 288 interchange (Case 875134, E.M. Engler Associates). The request property lies at the intersection of Hull Street Road and Harbour Pointe Parkway, and serves as the only entrance into the subdi- visions of Harbour Pointe. Recently the Commission has recognized that entrances into subdivisions should be reserved for less intense uses which provide neighborhood services and provide a more attractive en- trance into the neighborhood. Specifically, the Commission has recently recommended approval of a neighborhood scale commercial tract at the intersection of Hull Street Road and Deer Run Road, which is a major entrance into Deer Run Subdivision (Case 88SN0066). Previous conditions of zoning permitted light industrial and heavy commercial uses on the property. However, the Commission has recommended deletion of these intense uses and approval of a mix of commercial uses that have tradi- tionally been recognized as uses serving primarily adjacent neighbor- hoods. A similar mix of uses would be appropriate for the intersection of Hull Street Road and Harbour Pointe Parkway, at the entrance to the subdivisions of Harbour Pointe. As previously noted, the property is currently zoned Residential (R-7), Office Business (0), and Light Industrial (M-1) and, through previous zonings, can be developed for a number of commercial, office, light industrial, and residential uses. However, through the Conditional Use 11 88SN0045/BSSEPB/SEPT28L Planned Development process currently applicable to any development on the request property, sufficient controls exist to ensure quality devel- opment, land use transition, and compatibility. Specifically, through the schematic plan review process, the Commission may impose conditions deemed necessary to mitigate the impact that any permitted use may have upon area residents and ensure that development is of the quality desired along this portion of the Hull Street Road Corridor. Specifically, the Commission may impose conditions designed to ensure adequate setbacks; prevent sign proliferation; control access; require screening of mechan- ical equipment and loading areas; reduce the nuisances normally associ- ated with site lighting and noise; provide for pedestrian access; and ensure that site and parking area landscaping and architectural scale, quality, and massing are compatible with area residential development and of the quality desired along this portion of Hull Street Road. In addi- tion, the Commission may impose buffers that it deems necessary, based upon the intensity of any use proposed adjacent to Harbour Pointe Park- way, to protect area residents from potential adverse impacts due to noise, lighting, and traffic. It should be noted that, given the current zoning and Conditional Use Planned Developments that apply to the request property (Cases 74S021 and 85S002), a mixed use development, to include office and office/warehouse uses, could be developed on the property. In addition, through the current rezoning, the Commission and Board can approve additional uses, to include a small, neighborhood scale shopping center and high density residential uses, and impose conditions that further ensure that any development on the request property is of the type, scale, and quality desired at the entrance to the subdivisions of Harbour Pointe. Given these considerations, the property owner should be encouraged to market the property for the mix of uses discussed herein and seek to zone the property accordingly.

This letter is being provided to you pursuant to Items 4 and 5 of the Land Use Amendment Application filed herewith and in compliance with the re- quirements of Section 21-34(f) and (h) of the Chesterfield County Zoning Ordinance (the "Zoning Ordinance"). A. Introduction and Description of Proposed Development The Applicant is requesting that approximately 53 acres of land (the "Property") located along the northern line of U. S. Route 360 west of Harbour Pointe Parkway, to be known as "Brandermill Landing", be subject to the existing Conditional Use v Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E. Page 2 March 14. 1988 (revised June 20, 1988) Planned Development as amended and restated in accordance with the terms and provisions of the attached Application. The Property is currently zoned Light Industrial, Office and R-7, all with Condi- tional Use Planned Development. The Applicant seeks such amendment to permit the development of a high-quality shopping center facili- ty with such additional uses as may be incidental thereto, including first-class office space on certain out-parcels. The current CUPD affecting the vast majority of the Property permits the development of a variety of manufacturing, industrial and commercial uses without the necessity of adherence to the com- prehensive standards for landscaping, aesthetics and other criteria as now required by the Corridor Overlay District Standards. The possibility exists that the Property could be developed by numerous users in an unrelated, piecemeal fashion, resulting in numerous ac- cess points from U. S. Route 360 and Harbour Pointe Parkway. The Applicant proposes a superior use of the Property through an inte- grated and interdependent large tract development that is explic- itly controlled by the conditions stated herein. The Applicant has voluntarily agreed to adhere by the Corridor Overlay District Stan- dards and has proffered certain other conditions regarding screening and buffering so as to minimize the impact of the devel- opment on the Harbour Pointe residential community. The Applicant has also limited the types of uses that may be developed on the Property. To insure that the development will be complementary to both the Harbour Pointe community and Chesterfield County, the Ap- plicant has engaged The D.I. Design Group of Baltimore, Maryland, an internationally-known and award-winning firm to produce a plan for Brandermill Landing which successfully advances the development goals and objectives delineated in a comprehensive plan which is both consistent and compatible with the land use and building qual- ity of the surrounding area. B. Development Team The following professional firms have team, by the Applicant to assist in the de Brandermill Landing.

Theobald 771-9513 These professionals bring substantial experience and expertise to ensure the highest quality of development for Brandermill Land- ing. Tedco Equities, a general partnership ("Tedco") was formed in 1977 by its principals, Ted C. Ginsberg, David H. Gill and Ed Rulnik. Since its inception, Tedco has participated as owner, joint venturer and managing entity for the development of numerous and varied real estate properties. Tedco is nationally experi- enced, having engaged in real estate development throughout the Midwest, Eastern Seaboard and New England areas. Tedco's principal commitment is to selective, high-quality projects in metropolitan areas. Current work in progress exceeds $100,000,000.00 including the development of hotels, office buildings, mixed-use urban proj- ects, shopping centers and residential developments. C. Proposed Conditions and Restrictions The Applicant proposes that the conditions enumerated below be imposed as the amended and restated CUPD to ensure the high-quality and orderly development of Brandermill Landing: 1. Brandermill Landing will be designed and developed as an integrated whole in substantial conformity with the pro- posed land use plan entitled "Conceptual Site Plan" submitted herewith (the "Master Plan"), prepared by The D.I. Design Group. { Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E. Page 4 March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988) 2. Buffer strips shall be provided along Harbour Pointe Parkway as shown on the Master Plan. If sufficient vegetation exists to provide adequate screening, buffer strips may be left in their natural state; however, if sufficient vegetation does not exist within the buffer strip to provide adequate screening, or if a buffer strip is not left in its natural state due to improvements, said buffer strip shall be planted and/or bermed in accordance with a landscape plan approved by the Planning Department. The following improvements may be allowed within the buffer strips subject to the approval of such landscape plan: (a) Pedestrian paths. (b) Regulatory and information signs. (c) Screening fences or walls. (d) Utilities and storm drainage facilities. (e) Roads and Drives which are intended for emer- gency ingress and egress, and from the Property. These buffer strips shall be noted on any final site plans, and on any final check and recordation plats. At the request of the Applicant, the Planning Commission may modify these buffer strips and provide for additional uses to be per- mitted therein at the time of preliminary site plan review. 3. The Property shall be developed in accordance with the Corridor Overlay District requirements as set forth in Division 11.2 of the Chesterfield County Zoning Ordinance, ex- cept as set forth in Condition 7 hereof. 4. The following uses shall be permitted on the R-7 and M-1 portions of the Property: (a) All uses permitted as a matter of right in the B-2 Community Business District. (b) Drive-In establishments. (c) Cocktail lounges and dining establishments. (d) Outside storage. f Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E. Page 5 March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988) 5. The following uses shall be permitted on the 0 portion of the Property: (a) All uses permitted as a matter of right in the 0 Office Business District. (b) Banks, including drive-up facilities. (c) Parking and access for uses permitted on the remainder of the Property. 6. The Applicant agrees to notify the Manager of the Brandermill Community Association of its filing of any request for schematic plan approval by the County. 7. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, one hun- dred (100) feet of right-of-way measured from the centerline of U.S. Route 360 shall be dedicated by deed of dedication to Chesterfield County free and unrestricted; however, all set- backs shall be measured from the boundary line of the Property as it exists prior to such dedication. 8. To provide for an adequate roadway system as a re- sult of the development of Brandermill Landing, the Applicant shall be responsible for the following improvements: (a) Dual left-turn lanes from east-bound U.S. Route 360 at the median breaks located near the western bound- ary of the Property and near the middle of the Property, such median breaks being substantially as shown on the Master Plan. (b) If warranted, one-half the cost of signalization at (i) the entrance road near the western edge of the Property, (ii) the median break on U.S. Route 360 near the middle of the Property as shown on the Mas- ter Plan, and (iii) the intersection of U.S. Route 360 and Harbour Pointe Parkway. 9. No "fast food" restaurants shall be permitted on any outparcels east of the main entrance road near the middle of the Property. For purposes hereof, a "fast food" restaurant is hereby defined as an establishment whose principal business is the sale of foods and beverages to consumers in a ready-to-consume state and which foods and beverages are usu- ally served in paper, plastic or other disposable containers or wrappers for immediate consumption either within the res- taurant building or off the premises. t ~r ~' Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E. Page 6 March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988) D. Transportation Considerations The Applicant recognizes that a development such as Brandermill Landing cannot be professionally implemented or commer- cially successful unless traffic is efficiently and effectively handled. For those reasons, the Applicant has retained the ser- vices of Wilbur Smith Associates, internationally-recognized traf- fic consultants, to prepare a comprehensive traffic study which is included in the Application. The results of the traffic impact study indicate, and the implementation of its recommendations in- sure, that the required transportation system will be in place to effectively handle the traffic generated by Brandermill Landing. At the request of the residents of Harbour Pointe Subdivision, the Master Plan has deleted the extension of Harbour Pointe Park- way. This has resulted in a significant increase in buffering and allowed the main shopping center to shift further away from the residents of Harbour Hill. E. Conditional Use Planned Development Standards The Applicant will comply with all of the standards required in the Zoning Ordinance for the Planning Commission to recommend approval of the Application and for the Board of Supervisors to ap- prove the same. Those standards are summarized as follows: 1. The establishment, maintenance and operation of the proposed conditional use will not be detrimental to or endan- ger the public health, safety, morals, comfort or general wel- fare, inasmuch as the Property will be developed in substan- tial conformance with the Master Plan, the Corridor Overlay District Standards and the other restrictions applicable to the Conditional Use. Furthermore, hours of operation and de- livery schedules will be controlled to minimize the impact on the adjacent residential neighborhood. 2. The proposed conditional uses will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish or impair property values within the surrounding neighborhoods and in fact will provide for a more controlled and much higher quality of development than is permitted under the present CUPD affecting the Property. Manufacturing and industrial uses would be precluded as a result. 3. The establishment of the proposed conditional uses will not impede the normal and orderly development and Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E. Page 7 March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988) improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted by the Zoning Ordinance because of the care and quality inherent in the proposed development. It would further enhance the or- derly development by guaranteeing a one-time disruption far construction, eliminating the possibility of multiple access points on Harbour Pointe Parkway, and permit the master grlan- ning for storm water drainage for the entire site in a coordi- nated fashion. 4. The exterior architectural appeal of Brandermill Landing will cause an increase in the property values within the area over that which would result from development as per- mitted by the existing CUPD. 5. Adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary facilities have been or will be provided for the en- tire site in an integrated manner. 6. Adequate measures have been or will be taken to pro- vide ingress and egress designed so as to minimize traffic congestion within the public road system and to protect the adjacent residential neighborhood. F. Benefits to the County The Applicant respectfully requests that the amendment to the Conditional Use as requested by the Application be granted in ac- cordance with the provisions hereof, for the following reasons: 1. Brandermill Landing will provide high-quality shopping opportunities to service the expansion of nearby res- idential and office development. 2. Brandermill Landing will be a well-planned, inte- grated and aesthetically pleasing development that will result in the highest and best use of the Property. 3. It will provide for large tract development of an approximately 53 acre parcel of land located on a major arte- rial highway in a coordinated and well planned manner and eliminate the potential for piecemeal development. 4. The Applicant and the Development Team have exten- sive experience in accomplishing high-quality development projects in a manner that is consistent with the high stan- dards set by Brandermill and by Chesterfield County. Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E. Page 8 March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988) 5. Brandermill Landing will provide a major increase in the real estate tax base of Chesterfield County and will also cause a very substantial and beneficial "ripple" tax effect for the County by increasing employment, business, sales and other taxes. 6. Brandermill Landing will provide an economic balance with the concentration of residential and office development in the area. 7. Brandermill Landing will not adversely impact the County School System or other public services. G. Conclusion For the reasons set forth above, the Applicant respectfully requests that the Planning Staff and Planning Commission recommend approval, and that the County Board of Supervisors so approve the request as set forth in the Application.
