Proposal
Existing zoning permits a maximum of 54 townhome dwelling units which are being developed as
Stonebridge Gardens West at Ironbridge Plaza.
The applicant is requesting to amend Proffered Condition 7 relative to the number of dwelling
units permitted in a building. Specifically, the amendment is proposed to increase the number
of buildings which would be permitted to contain seven (7) dwelling units from two (2) to three
(3) buildings. Per the existing zoning, all other buildings within the development would be
permitted to include a maximum of six (6) dwelling units.
Modification to allow the one (1) additional building permitted to contain seven (7) dwelling
units will not adversely impact the quality, design and architecture of the development.

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.

SCHOOLS

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.
