Proposal and Ordinance Exceptions A 50-lot townhome development is planned on 8.3 acres, accessed from Walmart Way and yielding a density of 6.02 dwelling units per acre. Conditional Use Planned Development approval is requested to permit exceptions to ordinance standards to accommodate the proposed density. Exceptions are requested to permit the development on 8.3 instead of 10 acres; to eliminate the requirement to provide active recreational use/facilities for residents; and to permit reduction in setbacks as outlined in the Textual Statement (Attachment 2). Design High quality residential development addresses the Comprehensive Plan goals for strong and sustainable neighborhoods that are visually attractive, well-planned and well-maintained. Further, the purpose and intent of the zoning ordinance to promote the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the public includes the creation of convenient, attractive and harmonious communities, 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. The following provides an overview of additional design requirements offered as part of this request (Proffered Conditions Attachment 1): Lot Design Hardscaped driveways and front walks o Sodded front yards, foundation planting beds, rear yard fence design o Site Design Landscaping provided and maintained around buildings, in medians and within open o spaces to minimize the predominance of building mass and paved areas, define private spaces and enhance the residential character of the development Focal points and passive recreational spaces provided (including a covered o community gathering area) Street trees and sidewalks along streets o 6 foot tall solid fence and 50 foot buffer along the northern and eastern property o boundaries (See map on the following page) Limit height of light poles o 517SN0793-2017AUG23-BOS-RPT Architectural Design Compatible with elevations in Exhibit A, Attachment 3 o Façade and roof treatment o Pedestrian scale architectural features with separation of first and upper floors o Embellished facades on end units o Porch and garage treatment and screening of HVAC and similar equipment o MAP 2 LOCATION OF 50-FOOT BUFFER ADJACENT TO TAX IDS 736-709-6278, 6567, 6757, 7040, 7229, 7419 and 7609; 736-708-6597 and 6288; and 736-710-3031 The proffered conditions offered by the applicant address quality of the development comparable with the surrounding area. USE AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Area properties around Walmart Way are zoned for a mix of commercial and industrial uses, or are zoned Agricultural and occupied by a single-family dwelling or remain vacant. The Comprehensive Plan suggests light industrial and office uses behind the existing commercial as transitional uses to Old Buckingham Road and neighboring residential developments. While the Plan would not suggest residential uses in this area, aggregation of these vacant properties for a higher density residential development may be appropriate in achieving land use transition and a cohesive area development pattern along this shared access. This land aggregation is encouraged by the Plan where development of an individual parcel is constrained in size or shape in consideration of compliance with ordinance development standards and compatibility or transition. Without this aggregation under a unified development plan, staff is unable to support this request. 617SN0793-2017AUG23-BOS-RPT BUDGET & MANAGEMENT Staff Contact: Natalie Spillman (804-318-8767) spillmann@chesterfield.gov County finance staff is responsible for managing the finances of the County and making recommendations to the County Administrator regarding the allocation of available resources for the provision of services and capital facilities to serve the citizens of the County. Finance staff will advise the County Administrator if changed economic circumstances require COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Staff Contact: Jim Banks (804-748-1037) banksj@chesterfield.gov The applicant has committed to a maximum development of 50 units (Textual Statement II. a) Based on those number of units and applying trip generation rates for a townhouse, development could generate approximately 352 average daily trips. Traffic generated by development of the property will be initially distributed via Wal-Mart Way to Midlothian Turnpike. recommended right of way width of 120 to 200 feet. Midlothian Turnpike is a six-lane divided road. In 2015, the traffic count on Midlothian Turnpike between North Woolridge Road and 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 applicant has not offered to provide any mitigating road improvements. The property is within Traffic Shed 2, which encompasses the northwest area of the County, west of Huguenot Road and north of Midlothian Turnpike. Several roads in this part of the county have 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 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 transportation network through dedication of property, construction of road improvements, or 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 717SN0793-2017AUG23-BOS-RPT residential development is limited to townhouse units,which generate approximately 63% of the traffic of single-family dwelling units. Because of this, the traffic impact of the townhouse unit could be addressed with $5,922 (63% of $9,400) per unit. The applicant has proffered to pay $5,922 per townhouse unit (Proffered Condition 3). The Proffer allows, at the option of the Transportation Department, a reduction in the payments based on the cost of road improvements provided by the applicant. Currently, specific road improvements have not been identified. Staff supports the request. VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Staff Contact: Jonathan Phillippe (804-674-2560) jonathan.phillippe@vdot.virginia.gov VDOT will not require a connection to the W. Petty Rd. stub as a condition of street acceptance for maintenance. The roadway design and acceptance for this parcel (1800 and 1920 Walmart Way) is grandfathered under the 2005 SSR regulations as the mileage added with the proposed street layout does not exceed the mileage of the 03SN0284 street layout by more than 20%. FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES Staff Contact: Anthony Batten (804-717-6167) battena@chesterfield.gov Mission The mission of Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is to protect life, property and the environment through a comprehensive fire and life safety program that ensures an adequate and timely response to emergencies. Response Times The proposed development is located in the urban response zone for which Fire & EMS has a goal of responding to at least 90% of the calls for service in under seven (7) minutes. Fire and EMS is currently unable to meet that goal. Nearby Facilities The Midlothian Fire Station, Company Number 5 The Forest View Volunteer Rescue Squad Anticipated Fire & EMS Impacts/Needs Based on an average of .322 calls per dwelling, it is estimated that this development will generate 16 annual calls for Fire/EMS services. 817SN0793-2017AUG23-BOS-RPT Additional Fire and EMS Comments A second access is required for subdivisions larger than 50 lots. When the property is developed, the number of hydrants, quantity of water needed for fire protection, and access requirements will be evaluated during the plans review process.
