A single
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval for the following reasons:
A. The requested zoning and land use conform to the Powhite/Route 288
Development Area Land Use and Transportation Plan.
B. The requested zoning and land use are compatible with, and compara-
ble to, surrounding development.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Location: Located at the eastern terminus of
Coralberry Way. Tax Map 27-9 (1) Parcel 1
(Sheet 8).
Existing Zoning: A
Size: 3.5 acres
Existing Land Use: Vacant
Adjacent Zoning & Land Use: North - R-9; Single family residential
South - A; Single family residential
or vacant
East - A; Single family residential
or vacant
West - R-9; Single family residential
Utilities: A 6 inch water line lies on the north side
of Coralberry Way terminated at the south-
west line of the site. The source of water
is Swift Creek Reservoir. Public water is
available and its use is required by
Ordinance.
A 12 inch trunk sewer lies across the
southeast side of the site. The site lies
in the Falling Creek basin and is served by
Falling Creek Treatment Plant. Public
sewer is available and should be used.
Environmental Engineering: The site drains to Falling Creek via tribu-
taries. No drainage or erosion problems
are anticipated, although a large portion
of this property lies in the 100 year
floodplain. Off-site easements may be
necessary.
Schools: Approximately 6 school age children will be
generated. by this request. The site lies
in the Gordon Elementary School attendance
zone: capacity - 783, enrollment - 661;
Midlothian Middle School attendance zone:
capacity - 1,035, enrollment - 1,326; and
Monacan High School attendance zone:
capacity - 1,750, enrollment - 1,839. No
expansion is planned for these schools. No
significant impact on these schools is
anticipated from this proposed rezoning.
Fire Service: Wagstaff Fire Station, Company 410. At
present, fire service capability is good.
County water and fire hydrants should be
provided in compliance with nationally
recognized standards.
General Plan
(Powhite/Route 288
Development Area Land
Use and Transuorta-
tion Plan): Medium density residential
(1.51 - 4.00 units/acre)
Transportation: This proposed development could generate
approximately 80 average daily trips.
These vehicles will be initially distribut-
ed along Coralberry Drive which had a 1986
traffic count of 1,270 average daily trips.
This development should have a minimum
affect on the adjacent road network.
DISCUSSION
The applicant is requesting rezoning from Agricultural (A) to Residential
(R-9) of a 3.5 acre tract. A single family residential subdivision, to
2 88SN0093/BSSEP8/SEPT28S
~..
f
be served by public water and sewer, is planned. Typical R-9 develop-
ment, at 2.48 units/acre, could produce approximately eight (8) lots.
Maximum R-9 development, at 4.00 units/acre, would produce up to fourteen
(14) lots. In evaluating this request, staff has considered both the
Powhite/Route 288 Development Area Land Use and Transportation Plan, as
well as surrounding development.
The Powhite/Route 288 Development Area Land Use and Transportation Plan
designates this area for medium density residential uses (1.50 to 4.00
units/acre). Typical R-9 development falls within this range. Maximum
R-9 development falls at the high end of the range; however, the topogra-
phy of the site would likely keep the density below this upper limit.
Typical R-9 densities are also compatible with, and comparable to, sur-
rounding subdivisions already developed. To the north of the site lie
Sections I, J, and K of Smoketree. These sections have an average densi-
ty of 2.77 units/acre, and an average lot size of 13,390 square feet.
Lot sizes range from 9,900 square feet to over 54,000 square feet. On
the southwest side of the site lies Monacan Hills, Section 1. This
subdivision has an average density of 2.34 units/acre, and an average lot
size of 15,875 square feet. Here lot sizes range from 10,900 square feet
to over 30,800 square feet.
Because Residential (R-9) development would conform to the Powhite/Route
288 Development Area Land Use and Transportation Plan, and would be both
compatible with, and comparable to, surrounding development, staff recom-
mends approval of Residential (R-9).
