May be necessary to acquire off-site ease-
ments to extend public sewer. Use of public

Environmental Engineering:
Property drains to Pocoshock Creek. Due to
borrow pit operation, which has previously
occurred on site, property is currently ex-
periencing erosion problems. However, ero-
sion is confined to site. Curb and gutter
should be installed around perimeter of
driveways and parking areas.

present, fire service capability adequate.
Installation of a fire hydrant may be

Transportation:
The 1982 traffic tabulation on Midlothian
Turnpike was 31,000 vehicles per day. Addi-
tional pavement widening and curb and gutter
should be constructed along Route 60 to fa-
cilitate turning movements.
DISCUSSION
On January 23, 1980, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommen-
dation from the Planning Commission, rezoned the subject property to Com-
munity Business (B-2) in conjunction with the adjacent Office Business (O)
and R-15 zonings to the north.
The applicants are now requesting a Conditional Use Planned Development to
permit an automotive repair and tire business on the subject property.
The uses requested are representative of general development trends along
the Midlothian corridor. The conditions stated herein are similar to
those imposed at the time property to the west was zoned to allow the two
car dealerships in Moorefield Office Park. If properly controlled and
conditioned, this use will be compatible with those which exists along
Midlothian Turnpike. The plan, as submitted, complies with the spirit and
intent of the proffered conditions which were offered at the time the
property was originally zoned.
At the time of schematic plan submission, the internal traffic circulation
should be redesigned to minimize conflict points and to discourage parking
in non-designated areas.
'Although the adjacent property is zoned Community Business (B-2), it is
occupied by a mobile home park. Since this is a residential use, Staff
has recommended screening these uses.either by topographical conditions or
fencing.
