The purpose of the Courthouse Area Design District is to provide standards to encourage and enhance Colonial and Federalist architectural features that are compatible with the historic structures within, and in proximity to, the Chesterfield County Government Complex. These standards requirebuildings to be compatible with Federalist and Colonial architecture as exemplified by the historic Chesterfield Courthouse and other buildings, with architectural features including articulation of doors and windows, ornamentation, and use of certain materials and varied façade and roof designs. Architectural compatibility with buildings located within the same project or within the same block or directly across any road is required. COURTHOUSE DESIGN DISTRICT BOUNDARIES Subject Property 418SN0519-2018MAY23-BOS-RPT Buildings within the proposed development will comply with the Courthouse Design District standards except that a Conditional Use Planned Development is requested to permit varied parapet roof designs on portions of buildings instead of full pitched roofs. (Attachment 3, Exhibit A) The buildings will incorporate architectural elements and materials of the design district. The buildings are planned with quality materials; architectural features to articulate windows and doors and to provide ornamentation; and, in wall offsets and varied roof lines. Given the zoning ordinance requirement that architectural compatibility be achieved within a project and with adjacent properties, the quality design and materials offered with this development is anticipated to continue with future area development. Exceptions to Landscaping and Setbacks Requirements Development of the property would be required to meet site design standards of the Courthouse Design District which address building and parking setbacks and site landscaping. The applicant is requesting approval of conditional use planned development to permit reduced setbacks and landscaping requirements for the eastern portion of the development (See Map below and Textual Statement Attachment 2). Final numbers and species of plants will be approved by the Planning Department during plans review. To offer a cohesive design for the eastern portion of the property comparable with anticipated development at the corner of Route 10 and Lori Road, staff is supportive of the reduction in the setbacks and landscaping, as proposed.
