PUBLIC FACILITIES
Uti lities:
Public Water System
Public water is available to the subject parcel. Applicant has proffered the use of the
public water system. (Proffered Condition 5)
A computer-simulated flow test indicated that sufficient flow and pressure should be
available to meet domestic and fire protection demand for the proposed use.
Public Wastewater System
Public wastewater is available to the subject parcel. Applicant has proffered the use
of the public wastewater system. (Proffered Condition 5)
The results of a computer-simulated hydraulic analysis indicate that sufficient capacity
should be available to accommodate the waste flows generated by the proposed use.
Environmental:
Drainage and Erosion:
The request property drains to the east through Trampling Farms Subdivision to
Falling Creek and then into Falling Creek Reservoir. No existing or anticipated on-site
drainage or erosion problems. However, the creek downstream of the site has been
improved with rip-rap to help retard heavy erosion. Further, the culvert under
Ronson Road to the east may not be sized to handle additional drainage. It may be
necessary to obtain off-site easements and make off-site drainage improvements to
control runoff. It should be noted that when the subdivision is designed, homes must
meet Floodplain Ordinance standards and the pipe underneath Ronson Road (to the
east) will be required to meet current VDOT requirements.
Fire Service:
Dale Fire Station, Company #11. Provide County water and fire hydrant placement
for fire protection purposes in compliance with nationally recognized standards (i.e.,
National Fire Protection Association and Insurance Services Office).
The proposed zoning and land uses will generate additional need for fire protection
services. Proffers have been received to address this need. (Proffered Condition 4)

93SN0192/WP/J U LY2 8J
Transportation:
This development is anticipated to generate approximately 500 average daily trips.
These vehicles will be distributed along Jessup Road which had a 1990 traffic count
of 4,597 vehicles per day.
The Thoroughfare Plan identifies Jessup Road as a collector road with a
recommended right of way width of seventy (70) feet. The applicant has proffered
to dedicate thirty-five (35) feet of right of way measured from the centerline of Jessup
Road in accordance with that Plan. (Proffered Condition 1)
Access to collector roads, such as Jessup Road, should be controlled. The applicant
has proffered to limit access to Jessup Road to one (1) public road (Proffered
Condition 2). Meadoway Road intersects Jessup Road across from the subject
property. Access to Jessup Road for the subject property should align with the
Meadoway Road intersection, or be separated at least 300 feet from the Meadoway
Road intersection. Mitigating road improvements must be provided for the requested
densities. The applicant has proffered to construct a right turn lane along Jessup Road
at the approved access and relocate the ditch toprovide an adequate shoulder along
Jessup Road for the entire property frontage (Proffered Condition 3). Construction of
the right turn lane may require acquisition of "off-site" right of way.
Area roads need to be improved to accommodate an increase in traffic generated by
this development. The applicant has proffered cash for "off-site" road improvements
(Proffered Condition 4). At time of tentative subdivision review, specific
recommendations will be provided regarding dedication of a stub road right of way
to the adjacent property.
S(hools:
Approximately thirty-seven (37) school age children will be generated by this
development. The site lies in the Hening Elementary school attendance zone:
capacity-620, enrollment-601; Manchester Middle School zone: capacity- 1,350,
enrollment- 973; and Meadowbrook High School zone: capacity- 1,350, enrollment
- 1,299.
This development will have an impact on area schools. No new schools are planned
in this area. The applicant has agreed to participate in the cost of providing for area
school needs. (Proffered Condition 4)

The proposed zoning and land use will have a fiscal impact on capital facilities. Consistent
with the Board of Supervisors' policy, the applicant has offered cash proffers to address the
impact of this proposed zoning on such capital facilities. (Proffered Condition 4)
LAND USE
General Plan:
Lies within the boundaries of the Central Area Land Use and Transportation Plan
which designates the property for residential use (1.51 to 4.0 units per acre).
Area Development Trends:
Area development is characterized by agricultural and residential zonings and land
uses. Trampling Farms Subdivision, which is zoned Residential (R-7) is located to the
6
93SN01927W P/J U LY28J
east. Trampling Farms has developed with a theoretical density of approximately
2.20 units per acre on public water and private septic systems. Lot sizes range
between approximately 10,400 to 63,480 square feet.
Dale Meadows Subdivision is located to the south and is zoned Residential (R-7).
Dale Meadows has developed at a density of approximately 3.10 units p~r acre on
individual wells and septic tanks. Lot sizes range between approximately 11,297 to
20,460 square feet. The request property is planned for development utilizing public
water and sewer and, therefore, can accommodate greater densities. Residential uses
similar to the densities proposed by this application and the adopted Plan are
anticipated on area vacant properties.
Conclusions:
The proposed zoning and land use conform to the Central Area Land Use and
Transportation Plan, which designates the request property for residential use of 1.51
to 4.0 units per acre. In addition, the proposed zoning and land use conform to
existing and anticipated area residential development patterns and the proffered
conditions address impacts on capital facilities, transportation, utilities and concerns
relative to house sizes and tentative subdivision review. Therefore, approval of this
request is recommended.
