PUBLIC FACILITIES
Transportation:
In 1988, the B0ard'of Supervisors approved a rezoning request (Case 88S015) on sixty-nine
(69) acres in the northwest comer of the Charter Colony Parkway/Powhite Parkway
intersection for development of a mixed-use project. As part of that zoning approval, the
'Board imposed several transportation related conditions, including conditions that establish a
maximum density, and require fight of way dedications and construction of specific road
improvements.
The maximum density condition limits development to 650,000 square feet. of-office,
100,000 square feet of office research and development and a250 room hotel, or equivalent
densities based on traffic generation. This development is anticipated to generate
approximately 10,370 average daily trips. These vehicles will be distributed along
Brandermill Parkway Extended; Charter Colony Parkway and Powhite Parkway. Charter
Colony Parkway and Powhite Parkway had 2002 traffic Counts ofl 6,000 and 12,000 vehicles
per day, respectively.
As development continues in this .area and traffic volumes ~ increase, the Charter Col°ny
Parkway/Powhite Parkway intersection will need to be upgradedto 'an interchange..A design
of this interchange has not been approved. Two (2) propoSals have been submitted to the
Virginia Department of TransportatiOn (VDOT), under the pUblic, Private Transportation Act
(PPTA), for the extension of the Powhite Parkway from its cUrrent terminus m Old Hundred
Road to Hull Street Road near Beaver Bridge Road. Both proposals, include the Charter
Colony Parkway/Powhite Parkway interchange, and .would complete this section of the
Powhite Extension as a toll road. The proposals are currently being reviewed by VDOT.
Detailed information has not been:provided and accordingly, the Board of Supervisors has
not been requested to respond to these proposals.
Based on the traffic impact from development of the subject property, a condition of zoning
(Condition 25 of Case 888015) requires the. construction of parts/elements of the furore
Charter Colony Parkway/Powhite Parkway interchange. When the property'was zoned, a
conceptual interchange design was developed. Condition 25 describes the specific parts (i.e.,
one (1) loop and two (2) ramps) °fthe interchange that must be constructed to accommodate
the development.
Subsequent to the rezoning, the applicant submitted and received a conditional. Conceptual
approval of a redesigned Charter Colony Parkway/Powhite Parkway interchange to a single-
point diamond interchange, The applicant would like the ability to construct parts of this
interchange or any alternative interchange with development of the property. The zoning
condition that specifically describes a loop or a ramp would-need to be. modified.
Specifically, the applicant is requesting that Condition 25 of Cas6 8880i5 be deleted and has
proffered a similar condition that requires construction of the part of the interchange that will
accommodate a specific traffic movement (Proffered Condition 1). The applicant-has
4 04SN0165-JAN28-BOS
proffered another condition that would also allow alternative road improvements, which
provide acceptable levels of service, to be subStituted for those improvements listed in
proffered Condition 1 (Proffered Condition 2). The requested amendment is consistent with
requirements in the original zoning, and will not affect any other transportation related
conditions.
The original Charter Colony Parkway/Powhite Parkway interchange design precluded direct
access from the property to Charter Colony Parkway. Under that design, access from the
property to Charter Colony Parkway would be provided solely through the adjacent property
to the north (Center Pointe DeVelopment). The redesigned single,point diamond interchange
could allow for direct access from the property to Charter Colony Parkway, located at the
northern property line. The approval of this Charter Colony Parkway access will be based on
the final design of the interchange and the proposed internal circulation on the property.
At time of site plan review, specific recommendations will be provided regarding access and
internal circulation.
LAND USE
Comprehensive Plan:
Lies within the boundaries of the-Route 288 Corridor Plan which suggests the property is
appropriate for Office/Residential Mixed Use. Professional and administrative offices,
residential developments of varying densities and light industrial uses are suggested to be
appropriate in these areas.
Area Development Trends:
Surrounding properties to the north and east were zoned to permit a mix of office; residential,
light industrial and commercial uses as part of the Charter Colony development and are
currently vacant. Properties to the south and east were zoned Residential (R-7), Corporate
Office (0-2) and NeighborhoOd Business (C-2) as part of the Brandermill development and
are occupied by single family residential and commercial uses or are vacant. It is anticipated
that a mixture of office, residential, .light industrial and commercial uses will continue as
recommended by the Plan.
Zoning History:
On April 27, 1988, the Board of Supervisors approved rezoning from Agricultural (A) to
Office Business (O) with Conditional Use Planned Development (Case 888015) to permit.
use and bulk exceptions. Office, light industrial and limited commercial uses were
permitted. A height exception was granted to permit a hotel and exceptions to parking lot
sizes were also granted. Proffered conditions were acceptedto address concerns relative to
signage, architecture, site design, buffers, utilities, drainage;, transportation and: uses,

· Current Proposal:
Through' the original zoning, the applicant addressed the Transportation Department's
concerns over traffic impact on area roadways (Charter Colony Parkway, Powhite Parkway,
Brandermill Parkway Extended and Old Hundred. Road) through various proffered

Colony/Powhite Parkway Extended interchange.
The developer is 'proposing to delete Condition 25 relative to the construction of the
interchange and replace it with proffered conditions provided herein. SpeCifically,~ Condition
25 reads as follows:
