REQUEST
(AMENDED) Amendment of zoning approval (Cases 06SN0237 and 07SN0226) relative to
amendment of cash proffers in a Community Business (C-3) District. Specifically, deletion of
Proffered Condition 11 of Cases 06SN0237 and 07SN0226 is requested.
Notes: A. Conditions may be imposed or the property owner may proffer conditions.
B. An additional proffered condition is located in Attachment 1.
SUMMARY
A mix of residential housing types, commonly known as the Watermark development, is being
developed. A maximum of 740 dwelling units are permitted, with 425 units impacted by this
request. The original zoning (Case 06SN0237) was approved with a density of 650 units and the
cash proffer amounts of $15,600 for non age restricted units and $10,269 for age restricted units;
escalated by the Marshall and Swift Building Cost Index to the current amounts of $22,734 and
$14,963, respectively. The cash proffer payment applies to units in excess of 150, of which
approximately 419 units are remaining to be constructed. Additionally, the second original zoning
(Case 07SN0226) was approved with a density of 90 units and the cash proffer amounts of $15,600
for non age restricted units and $10,269 for age restricted units; escalated by the Marshall and Swift
Building Cost Index to the current amounts of $21,186 and $13,946, respectively. There are
approximately 6 units remaining to be constructed. Currently, the total potential value of the
approved cash proffer equates to $9,652,662 (calculation based on constructing all non age
restricted units). With this request, the applicant is proposing to eliminate the cash proffer payment
as the property is located within an area identified for revitalization.
Providing a FIRST CHOICE community through excellence in public service
SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
The current zoning cases and proffered conditions provide specific design and architectural
standards (Summarized on Pages 7 & 8) for residential development that will be compatible with
existing area development.
ADDENDUM
The purpose of this Addendum is to provide the Board with an additional condition proffered by
the applicant on May 24, 2017. It will be necessary for the Board of Supervisors to unanimously
agree to suspend their rules to consider this proffered condition since it was submitted after
public advertisement of this case.
In response to concerns expressed by the Department of Parks and Recreation relative to a lack of
pedestrian connections to adjacent developments, on May 24, 2017, the applicant submitted an
additional proffered condition. Specifically, Proffered Condition 3 was offered by the applicant to
require a sidewalk connection from this development to the terminus of Old Zion Hill Road. Staff
continues to recommend approval of this request as outlined herein.

Chesterfield County Airport Operation Area
The request properties are partially located within the Airport Operation Area, as shown on the
Plan’s Land Use Plan Map. A previous condition of zoning addressed the notification of future
residential development within the Airport Operation Area by requiring the location of the
airport be placed on each subdivision plat or included in a location plan for required
condominium documentation.
Proposal
Watermark, a mixed-use community,consists of commercial anda variety ofresidential uses,
including multifamily, townhouses, cluster, and singlefamily dwellings. 740 total dwelling units
were permitted under the original zoning cases. As noted in the “Zoning History Section”, cash
proffers were required on a total of 590dwelling units.Of those, proffers have been paid on 165
units, leaving up to 425units subject to thecash proffer. Deletion of Proffered Condition 11 of
both zoning cases is requested to relieve payment of cash proffers on these remaining 425 units.
Of these 425 units, preliminary plat approval has been given for forty-nine (49) single-family or
small lot units and 259 townhouses (not including three (13) lots that have transferred to private
property owners). The remaining 117 dwellings could be developed as a mix of multi-family,
townhouse, small lot units or single-family based on the density restrictions set for in Case
06SN0237.
Design Requirements of Cases 06SN0237 and 07SN0226
The following provides an overview of design requirements approved with Cases 06SN0127 and
07SN0226 (Attachments 3-5):

promote the health, safety, convenience,and general welfare of the publicto include the
creation of convenient, attractive,and harmoniouscommunities, protection against
overcrowding of land, and protection of the natural environment. As such, developments that
promote unique, viable and long lasting places, and enhance the community are encouraged.

REVITALIZATION
Staff Contact: Carl Schlaudt(804-318-8674) schlaudtc@chesterfield.gov
The Planning Commission reviewed this case prior to recent Board of Suppervisors
amendments to the Road Cash Proffer Policy. At the time of Commission review, the project
site was determined to not be located in a revitalization area. However, since that time the
Board has adopted a criteria-based approach for determining if a site is located in revitalization
area. Staff now finds that the project site is located in a revitalization area, consistent with the
criteria-based approach of Road Cash Proffer Policy Section B.5 (as amended by the Board of
Supervisors on April 26, 2017).
The Revitalization Office supports development in revitalization areas that represents a
substantial improvement above current area conditions. This proposal, as updated in proffers
dated May 8, 2017, represents a substantial improvement above conditions of older residential
development in the area generally west of Route 10, near Kingsland Glen Drive. Specifically, this
project would be a substantial improvement in terms of: architectural variation, common
recreational area, foundation planting beds, paved driveways, front porches, front walks,
garages, HVAC screening, minimum house size, roof materials, sidewalks, siding material, street
trees, and yard trees.
The project would be generally equivalent to surrounding development in terms of foundation
treatment and landscaping (not specified).
The Revitalization Office supports the proposal as proffered.

COUNTY TRANSPORTATION
Staff Contact: Jim Banks (804-748-1037) banksj@chesterfield.gov
Based on an assumed density of 49 single-family units, 259 townhouse units and 117 apartment
units and applying trip generation rates for the various land uses, the proposed development
could generate approximately 2,795 average daily trips. Traffic generated by development of
the property would be initially distributed along Iron Bridge Road (Route 10). With completion
of Kingsland Glen Drive, traffic will also be distributed to Cogbill Road.
Route 10 is a Major Arterial with a recommended right of way width of 120 to 200 feet, as
identified on the County’s Thoroughfare Plan. This section of Route 10 is currently four-lanes
wide. In 2015, the traffic count on Route 10 between Kingsland Road and Cogbill Road was
31,995 (Level of Service “C”).
Cogbill Road is a Major Arterial with a recommended right of way width of 90 feet, as identified
on the County’s Thoroughfare Plan. Cogbill Road is currently two-lanes wide. Sections of the
road have been improved. Other sections of the road are substandard, with approximately 10-
foot lane widths and no usable shoulders. VDOT minimum geometric design standards
recommend this road have 12-foot lane widths and 10 foot shoulders. In 2015, the traffic count
for the section of Cogbill Road west of Route 10 was 5,150 vehicles per day (Level of Service
“D”).
Section 19.1-231 of the County Code outlines the general requirements to meet the needs of
the traffic generated by a proposed development, including acceptable levels of service. This
proposed residential development would contribute to an identifiable need for transportation
improvements.
The property is located within Traffic Shed 7, which encompasses the area of the County
bounded by Hull Street Road, Chippenham Parkway, Route 10, and Route 288. Several roads in
this traffic shed or which serve this traffic shed are substandard, with little or no shoulders,
fixed objects (trees) adjacent to the edge of the pavement, and poor vertical and horizontal
alignments. The traffic volume generated from this proposed residential development will
contribute to an identifiable need for transportation facility improvements to these roads in
excess of existing transportation facility capacity. Roads in this shed or which serve this shed
need to be improved or widened to address safety and accommodate increased traffic,
including the increased traffic from the proposed development.
An applicant may choose to address the development’s impact on the county’s road
transportation network through dedication of property, construction of road improvements, or
a cash proffer. If an applicant elects to offer cash to address the impact on the county’s road
transportation network, Transportation staff has calculated the average impact of a single-
family dwelling unit on the transportation network to be $12,652; however, the Board of
Supervisors has adopted a policy establishing that it would accept a maximum cash proffer of
$9,400 per dwelling unit as addressing the traffic impacts of residential development, with all of
the funds to be dedicated towards improvements to the road network. The Policy allows the
county to consider mitigating circumstances about a proposed development. In this case, the
1013SN0132-2017MAY24-BOS-RPT
residential development is not limited to a specific type. Based on the volume of traffic it
generates:
-family unit traffic impact could be addressed by $9,400 per unit.
-family dwelling unit,
traffic impact could be addressed by $5,922per unit.
-family dwelling unit, traffic
impact could be addressed by $5,640 per unit.
According to the Office of Revitalization, the property is located within a revitalization area.
Under the Road Cash Proffer Policy, no road cash proffer will be accepted for development in
these areas.

SCHOOLS
Staff Contact: Atonja Allen (804-318-8740) atonja_allen@ccpsnet.net
Mission
High performing, high quality public schools contribute to the quality of life and economic
vitality of the County. The comprehensive plan suggests a greater focus should be placed on
linking schools with communities by providing greater access, flexibledesigns and locations that
better meet the needs of the communities in which they are located.
Capital Improvements
The School Board FY2017 adopted Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) continues to support the
2013 voter approved school revitalization programthat will replace or renovate ten schools and
construct one new elementary school to add capacity in the Midlothian area of the county. The
ten existing facilities that are part of the revitalization program are Providence Middle School,
Monacan High School, Manchester Middle School, Beulah Elementary School, Enon Elementary
School, Matoaca Elementary School, Harrowgate Elementary School, Reams Elementary School,
Crestwood Elementary School, and Ettrick Elementary School. The project at Providence
Middle School is currently in construction, a new Manchester Middle School is planned for
construction on the existing school site,and the project at Monacan High School is complete.
Additional information on the CIP can be found in the financial section of the CCPS Adopted
Budget for FY2017.

average number of students per townhouse dwelling unit countywide at 0.41 students per unit. While this figure
represents the highest possible impact to the school system, the zoning proposal also permits the development of
multifamily dwelling units which could reduce the overall anticipated student yield.
Public Facilities Plan
The Public Facilities Plan recommends that Beulah Elementary School be revitalized or
replaced. In November 2016 the Board of Supervisors approved Case 17PD0147 for substantial
accord to permit an elementary school located along Beulah Road north of Kingsland Road.
Post 2020, the Plan also recommends a new high school facility in the vicinity of Chester Road
and Route 288 north of Route 10, however at this time a budget has not been developed for
the acquisition of land or construction of this school facility as recommended in the Plan.
Additional Schools Comments
1313SN0132-2017MAY24-BOS-RPT
In addition to permitting 49 single family dwelling units and 259 townhouse dwelling units, this
case also permits an additional 117units as an unspecified mix of single family, townhouse, and
multifamily units. The student yield calculations are based on 259 townhouse units, and 166
single family dwelling units, the maximum possible impact.

plan be made to adjacent developments.
1413SN0132-2017MAY24-BOS-RPT
Bicycle only facilities are located along Ironbridge Road. Existing conditions of zoning require
construction of a sidewalk along Route 10, consistent with the recommendations of the plan. The
applicant has not, however,offered to providepedestrianand bicycleconnections to adjacent
developments, consistent with the recommendations of the plan.
