The property could be developed for 33 lots. Based on those numbers of lots and applying trip
generation rates for a single-family dwelling, development could generate approximately 375
average daily trips. Traffic generated by development of the property will be distributed via
West Hundred Road to Route 10 and Branders Bridge Road.
Route 10 (Iron Bridge Road) is identified on the /ƚǒƓƷǤ ŷƚƩƚǒŭŷŅğƩĻ tƌğƓ as a major arterial
with a recommended right of way width of 120 feet. Route 10 is a four-lane divided road. In
2015, the traffic count on Route 10 between Harrowgate Road and Branders Bridge Road was
22,440 vehiB).
Branders Bridge Road is identified on the /ƚǒƓƷǤ ŷƚƩƚǒŭŷŅğƩĻ tƌğƓ as a major arterial with a
recommended right of way width of 90 feet. Branders Bridge Road is a two-lane road. 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 on Branders Bridge Road between West Hundred
Road and Bradley Bridge Road was 8,935 vehicles per dE).
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 located within Traffic Shed 18, which encompasses the area of the county south
of Route 10, east of Lewis Road, Bradley Bridge Road, and Sandy Ford Road, west of
Harrowgate Road, and north of Hickory Road, Woodpecker Road, and Lakeview Avenue. 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.

a cash proffer. If an applicant elects to offer cash to address the im
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. As such, if the applicant
chooses to address th
818SN0665-2018MAY23-BOS -RPT
of a cash proffer, $9,400 per dwelling unit for improvements to the road network would be
appropriate. The traffic impact of the proposed development could be valued at $310,200 (33 x
$9,400).
The applicant has proffered to pay $9,400 for each dwelling unit (Proffered Condition 1). Staff

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.

Anticipated Fire & EMS Impacts/Needs
Based on an average of .26936 calls per dwelling, it is estimated that this development will
generate 9 annual calls for Fire/EMS services.
Additional Fire and EMS Comments
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.

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, flexible designs and locations that
better meet the needs of the communities in which they are located.
Capital Improvements
The School Board FY2018 adopted Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) continues to support the
2013 voter approved school revitalization program that 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 FY2018.

Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan and ordinance requirements. A provision for easement and
trail along the eastern line of the property was proffered. The best alignment for the Plan route is
within the adjacent county right-of-way for the planned North-South Arterial, located along the
eastern property line. This approach represents the best alignment for extension of the route to
the north and south and will preserve valuable buffer to the residential lots adjacent to the future
North-South Arterial and bikeway.
The applicant is encouraged to consider a pedestrian/bicycle system within the development and
connection of pedestrian/bicycle facilities to the tƌğƓ route and adjacent subdivisions, where
feasible, and is compatible with the planned development.
