Rezoning to Community Business (C-3)

Approved
right or with restrictions in the Corporate Office (O-2) District
(11/2011)
Proposal
While the request property is zoned C-3, Proffered Condition 2 of the existing zoning limits uses
-right or with restrictions in the
Corporate Office (O-2) District. These limitations were offered with the case in 2011 in
compliance with the land use plan at that time which suggested the property was appropriate
for office use.
Currently, the Comprehensive Plan suggests the subject property and adjacent properties to the
south, east and west are appropriate for Neighborhood Business use, which generally equates to
the C-2 Zoning District. A commercial kennel which will provide day-time care and overnight
boarding for a maximum of 100 dogs is planned. A commercial kennel is first permitted by-right
in the Community Business (C-3) District. The applicant requests to amend Proffered
Condition 2 of Case 12SN0124 to add a commercial kennel as a permitted use.
The following chart provides an overview of the conditions to assist in mitigating the impact of
the use on area properties.

The Comprehensive Plan, which includes the Thoroughfare Plan, identifies county-wide
transportation needs that are expected to mitigate traffic impacts of future growth. An existing
condition of zoning does not allow direct vehicular access from the property to Genito Road
(Proffered Condition 1 of Case 12SN0124). Vehicular access to Genito Road is anticipated to be
provided via a private drive (Post Office Road), which currently serve a post office located along
Hull Street Road (Route 360). The anticipated traffic impact of the proposal has been evaluated,
and it is anticipated to be minimal.

Geography
The subject property drains south and southwest into an existing stormwater basin on the post
office property. The stormwater basin discharges to a natural channel which drains under Hull
Street Road and then to Swift Creek via tributaries and easements. The entire property is located
within the Lower Swift Creek Watershed.
Drainage
If the existing concrete ditch located along the western portion of the property is not enclosed
within a recorded drainage easement, the developer will be required to dedicate a drainage
easement from Genito Road to the existing drainage easements on the post office property.
Stormwater Management
The subject property was included within the stormwater management design for the existing
basin on the post office property; therefore, the development of the property is grandfathered
under the Part IIC technical criteria of the Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP)
Regulations for both water quality and water quantity until July 1, 2019, unless otherwise
extended by state regulation. Any increase in additional impervious areas are subject to the Part
IIB technical criteria of the VSMP Regulations for water quality and water quantity. In addition,
any portion of the development not under construction prior to July 1, 2019, will be subject to
the Part IIB technical criteria of the VSMP Regulations.
