PROPOSAL
An amendment of Conditional Use Planned Development (06SN0191) is requested to permit a
group care facility in a General Industrial (I-2) District. The applicant indicates that the facility will
function as an assisted living facility.
The request property is located within a portion of Tract E of the “Zoning Plan” for Case 06SN0191.
Tract E permits Light Industrial (I-1) uses with limited General Industrial (I-2) uses as well as a bank
or medical clinic. Group care facilities are first permitted in the Neighborhood Office (O-1) District.
Area properties to the north and east have developed into corporate office(Village Bank building)
and medical service/office (Bon Secours medical facility)uses. The proposed group care facility, as
conditioned, would be limited to a portion of the request property (Parcel A, Attachment 5) and
designed to be compatible and complimentary with neighboring developments.
The remainder of the request property (Parcel B, Attachment 5) would be developed separately
from the group care facility. To ensure that Parcel B wouldbe buildable for a permitted use, a
conceptual design plan was prepared by the applicant. The conceptual design plan supported
the East/West Roadway being classified as a special access street. Therefore, the applicant
proffered a setback of twenty-five (25) feet for buildings, drives and parking areas to conform
to the development standards approved for the neighboring Bon Secours medical facility.

Textual Statement VI. C.1 (l)
Change the classification from a Major Arterial to a

VDOT has no objection to the textual
statement revision noting construction of
the east-west special access street to
VDOT Urban Local Street Standards at 30
MPH.
Understood is that the east-west roadway
is identified on Chesterfield County’s
Summary
thoroughfare plan as a Major Arterial. As
the road extends west beyond the limits of
the subject case, continuity in the design
standard of the road consistent with the
subject case is desired. VDOT will continue
to work with CDOT on determining the
appropriate design standard for future
roadway construction.
