PLANNING COMMISSION REC0M11ENDATION
RECOHMEND APPROVAL SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS ON PAGE :¿.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Recommend denial for the following reasons;
A. The size, scale. and location of the proposed shopping cent.er is
incompatible with existing area single family residential develop-
ment. Specifically, a number of subdivisions in Harbour Pointe, lie
immediately adjacent to the request site or immediately across
Harbour Pointe Parkway. Traditionally, development of less intense
uses adjacent to subdivisions has been encouraged, thereby accom-
modating an appropriate transition bet\veen intense uses, such as
community scale shopping centers, and single family residential
neighborhoods.
B. The subject site is located at the intersection of a major arterial
and the entrance into a residential neighborhood. Shopping centers
of the size and scale proposed with this request should generally be
located along major arterial roads at their intersections with other
arterial roads. Such locations provide convenience access to larger
service areas. Specifically, a community scale shopping center with
large tenants will attract customers from a community wide trade
area. Such centers should be located so as to promote public conve-
nience and easy accessibility.
C. The prope rty is currently zoned Residential (R-7), Office Business
(0), and Light Industrial (M-1) and, through previous zonings, can
be developed for a number of commercial, office, light industrial,
and residential uses. Through the existing Conditional Use Planned
Development and schematic plan processes, sufficient controls exist
to ensure quality development, land use transition, and compatibil-
ity. Specifically, through the schematic plan review process, the
Commission may address conditions deemed necessary to mitigate the
impact that any current permitted use may have upon area residents
and ensure that development is of the quality desired along this
portion of the Hull Street Road Corridor.

Light industry and office
While the applicant has agreed to limit the
commercial square footage to 225,000 square
feet, exclusive of out-parcels. there is no
limitation on the square footage for other
permitted uses; therefore, it is difficult
to anticipate traffic generation. Based on
a revised traffic report, Brandermill
Landing, consisting of 54,100 square feet
of general office space and 278,000 square
feet of retail space, will generate approx-
imately 15,309 average daily trips. These
vehicles will be distributed along Harbour
Pointe Parkway, which had a 1986 traffic
count of 920 vehicles per day, and Hull
Street Road, which had a 1987 traffic count
of 20,410 vehicles per day.
The Powhite/Route 288 Development Area Land
Use and Transportation Plan identifies
Route 360 as a major arterial with a recom-
mended right of way width of 120 to 200
feet. The applicant has proffered right of
way dedication of 100 feet, from the
centerline of Route 360, in accordance with
that Plan.
The applicant has proffered that this
parcel will be developed under the Corridor
Overlay District Standards; therefore, the
6
~N0045/BSJAN9/JAN11G
schematic and site plans must adhere to
those standards relative to access and
internal circulation. A revised traftic
analysis has been submitted for the re-
quested densities. The analysis addresses
a twenty (20) year projection on local
traffic, assumes traffic volumes for vacant
parcels within Harbour Pointe not included
in this request> assumes traffic volumes
for anticipated development south of Route
360. proposes modifications to the cross-
overs along Route 360 and other relevant
factors. The Textual Statement attached
hereto outlines the road improvements which
the applicant has agreed to provide. These
road improvements should adequately miti-
gate the traffic impact of the development.
The revised conceptual Master Plan depicts
three (3) direct access driveways to Route
360 and an additional access to Route 360
via Harbour Pointe Parkway. The
westernmost access to Route 360 will align
Deer Run Drive at an existing crossover.
Thi.s entrance/exit should accommodate
through traffic movement directly into this
development. In addition, the planned
service drive, which will provide emergency
access for the residents of Harbour Landing
and access to adjacent property to the
west, should connect to this service drive
as a "T" intersection. The design shown on
the revised Master Plan is generally
acceptable.
Traffic signals are anticipated at the Deer
Run/western access/Route 360 intersection
and the Harbour POinte/Mockingbird/Route
360 intersection. Due to the proximity of
the proposed middle access to these antic-
ipated signalized intersections. a traffic
signal should not be installed at this
middle access. Therefore, the project
should be designed and constructed to
encourage drivers desiring to turn left to
utilize the two (2) planned signalized
intersections. Modifications to other
existing crossovers along Route 360 may be
necessary.
Access to Harbour Pointe Parkway should
also be provided so that trips to the
development from the adjoining neighborhood
7
88SN0045/BSJAN9/JANllG
will not be forced to use Route 360. The
exact location of the access will be de-
termined by the Transportation Department
at the time of schematic plan review.
At the time of schematic plan review, staff
will make specific recommendations regard-
ing access design and circulation, plus
permitted densities for this project, based
on proposed roadway improvements.
DISCUSSION
On May 8, 1974, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation
by the Planning Commission, approved rezoning with Conditional Use
Planned Development to permit a mixed use development on the request
property and adjacent properties to the north, east, and west (Case
7 4S021, Brandermill). With this zoning, a village center, to include
office, retail, and residential uses, an elementary school site, and an
office/light industrial complex, were planned. Subsequently, on February
27, 1985, the Board approved a rezoning plus an amendment to Case 74S021
on portions of the request property and property to the east (Case
858002). With this zoning, the elementary school site was eliminated and
an office/industrial complex with conference center and supporting com-
mercial uses was approved. The Residential (R-7) property, which was to
be occupied by a portion of the elementary school was zoned to allow
residential uses. The current request is for amendment to Cases 74S021
and 85S002 to permit a shopping center on a portion of the request
property.
The current zoning and Conditional Use Planned Development (Case 74S021
and 85S002) permit the following land uses on the request property:
A. On the Light Industrial (M-l) portion of the property:
1. All Light Industrial (M-l) uses.
2. Recreational establishments (indoor and outdoor).

C. On the Residential (R-7) portion of the property, residential
land uses are permitted.
Conditions were imposed to address concerns relative to the screening of
loading areas and other outdoor activities, buffering of uses from area
residents, and provision of open space.
As previously noted, the current request is for an amendment to permit a
community scale shopping center/office complex on the request property.
The applicant intends to develop approximately 225,000 square feet of net
retail space, with several large tenants, plus several office buildings
and retail pad sites along the Hull Street Road frontage (see the at-
tached Textual Statement). The gross square footage of retail space is
expected to be somewhat larger than the proffered net retail space. The
size, scale, and location of the proposed shopping center is incompatible
with existing single family residential development in the area. Specif-
ically, a large number of residences, in several subdivisions of Harbour
10
~~N0045/BSJAN9/JANl1G
Pointe, lay immediately adjacent to the request site or adjacent to the
site across Harbour Pointe Parkway. Traditionally. the Commission and
Board have encouraged transitional types of development adjacent to
subdivisions.. A smaller, neighborhood-oriented shopping center incor-
porated into a mixed use development with office/warehouse, office,
and/or high density residential uses between the shopping center and area
subdivisions \\1Ould represent an appropriate mix of uses and provide
transition between the Hull Street Road Corridor and existing residential
development in Harbour Pointe. In addition, a neighborhood scale shop-
ping center would serve the immediate neighborhoods without attracting
traffic into the area from the larger community. A community scale
shopping center \vould serve community-wide trade areas rather than the
immediate neighborhood.
Shopping centers of the size and scale proposed with this request should
generally be located along major arterial roads at their intersections
with other arterial roads. Specifically, a community scale shopping
center of the size proposed. having large tenants, will attract customers
to this portion of the Hull Street Road Corridor from a wide trade area.
Theref ore, community scale centers should be located so as to promote
public convenience and accessibility.
It should be noted that the nearest existing arterial intersectìons are
located at North Spring Run Road. approximately 2,500 feet to the west of
the request property, and Old Hundred Road, approximately 4.500 feet east
of the request property. Community scale shopping centers have either
been developed or are planned for construction at these intersect ions
with Hull Street Road. In addition. zoning for a regional scale shopping
center has recently been approved for property in the vicinity of the
Hull Street Road/Route 288 interchange (Case 875134. E.M. Engler
Associates).
The request property lies at the intersection of Hull Street Road and
Harbour Pointe Parkway. and serves as the only entrance into the subdi-
visions of Harbour Pointe. Recently the Commission has recognized that
entrances into subdivisions should be reserved for less intense uses
v¡hich provide neighborhood services and provide a more attractive en-
trance into the neighborhood. Specifically, the Commission has recently
recommended approval of a neighborhood scale commercial tract at the
intersection of Hull Street Road and Deer Run Road. which is a major
entrance into Deer Run Subdivision (Case 88SN0066). Previous conditions
of zoning permitted light industrial and heavy commercial uses on the
property. However, the Commission has recommended deletion of these
intense uses and approval of a mix of commercial uses that have tradi-
tionally been recognized as uses serving primarily adj acent neighbor-
hoods. A similar mix of uses would be appropriate for the intersection
of Hull Street Road and Harbour Pointe Parkway, at the entrance to the
subdivisions of Harbour Pointe.
As previously noted. the property is currently zoned Residential (R-ï) ,
Office Business (0). and Light Industrial (N-l) and, through previous
zonings, can be developed for a number of commercial, office, light
industrial, and resident ial uses. However. through the Conditional Use
11
88 SNOO¿f5/ BSJAN9/ JAN llG
Planned Development process currently applicable to any development on
the request property, sufficient controls exist to ensure quality devel-
opment, land use transition, and compatibility. Specifically, through
the schematic plan review process, the Commission may impose conditions
deemed necessary to mitigate the impact that any permitted use may have
upon area residents and ensure that development is of the quality desired
along this portion of the Hull Street Road Corridor. Specifically, the
Commission may impose conditions designed to ensure adequate setbacks;
prevent sign proliferation; control access; require screening of mechan-
ical equipment and loading areas; reduce the nuisances normally associ-
ated with site lighting and noise; provide for pedestrian access; and
ensure that site and parking area landscaping and architectural scale,
quality, and massing are compatible with area residential development and
of the quality desired along this portion of Hull Street Road. In addi-
tion, the Commission may impose buffers that it deems necessary, based
upon the intensity of any use proposed adjacent to Harbour Pointe Park-
way, to protect area residents from potential adverse impacts due to
noise, lighting, and traffic.
It should be noted that, given the current zoning and Conditional Use
Planned Developments that apply to the request property (Cases 74S021 and
85S002), a mixed use development, to include office and office/warehouse
uses, could be developed on the property. In addition, through the
current rezoning, the Commission and Board can approve additional uses,
to include a small, neighborhood scale shopping center and high density
residential uses, and impose conditions that further ensure that any
development on the request property is of the type, scale, and quality
desired at the entrance to the subdivisions of Harbour Pointe. Given
these considerations, the property owner should be encouraged to market
the property for the mix of uses discussed herein and seek to zone the
property accordingly.

Re: Brandermill Landing Shopping Center
Amendment to Conditional Use Planned Development
Dear Mr. Jacobson:
Tedco Equities - Northgate (the "Applicant") hereby submits an
application for an amendment to Conditional Use Planned Development
criteria with regard to Case Nos. 855002 and 745021 as they affect
the Property described herein to permit the development of a total-
ly planned and integrated first-class community shopping center to
be known as "Brandermill Landing" (the "Application"). This letter
is being provided to you pursuant to Items 4 and 5 of the Land Use
Amendment Application filed-herewith and in compliance with the re-
quirements of Section 21-34(f) and (h) of the Chesterfield County
zoning Ordinance (the "Zoning Ordinance").
A. Introduction and Description of Proposed Develooment
The Applicant is requesting that approximately 53 acres oÍ
land (the "Property") located along the northern line of U. S.
Route 360 west of Harbour pointe Parkway, to be known as
"Brandermill Landing", be subject to the existing Conditional Use
Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E.
Page ¿
March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988)
Planned Development as amended and restated in accordance with the
terms and provisions of the attached Application. The Property is
currently zoned Light Industrial, Office and R-7, all with Condi-
tional Use Planned Development. The Applicant seeks such amendment
to permit the development of a high-quality shopping center facili-
ty with such additional uses as may be incidental thereto,
including first-class office space on certain out-parcels.
The current CUPD affecting the vast majority of the Property
permits the development of a variety of manufacturing, industrial
and commercial uses without the necessity of adherence to the com-
prehensive standards for landscaping, aesthetics and other criteria
as now required by the Corridor Overlay District Standards. The
possibility exists that the Property could be developed by numerous
users in an unrelated, piecemeal fashion, resulting in numerous ac-
cess points from U. S. Route 360 and Harbour pointe Parkway. The
Applicant proposes a superior use of the Property through an inte-
grated and interdependent large tract development that is explic-
itly controlled by the conditions stated herein. The Applicant has
voluntarily agreed to adhere by the Corridor Overlay District Stan-
dards and has proffered certain other conditions regarding
screening and buffering so as to minimize the impact of the devel-
opment on the Harbour pointe residential community. The Applicant
has also limited the types of uses that may be developed on the
Property. To insure that the development will be complementary to
both the Harbour pointe community and Chesterfield County, the Ap-
plicant has engaged The D.l. Design Group of Baltimore, Maryland,
an internationally-known and award-winning firm to produce a plan
for Brandermill Landing which successfully advances the development
goals and objectives delineated in a comprehensive plan which is
both consistent and compatible with the land use and building qual-
ity of the surrounding area.
B. DeveloDment Team
The following professional firms have been assembled, as a
team, by the Applicant to assist in the development effort for
Brandermill Landing. Most members of this team have worked exten-
sively together on similar projects in the Richmond area. Individ-
uals listed below are available to discuss the details of the Dro-
posed development and the Application. -

GEOTECHNICAL CONSULTANTS:
These professionals bring substantial experience and expertise
to ensure the highest quality of development for Brandermill Land-
Ing.
Tedco Equities, a general partnership ("Tedco") was formed 1n
1977 by its principals, Ted C. Ginsberg, David H. Gill and Ed
Rulrrik. Since its inception, Tedco has participated as owner,
joint venturer and managing entity for the development or numerous
and varied real estate properties. Tedco is nationally experi-
enced, having engaged in real estate development throughout the
Midwest, Eastern Seaboard and New England areas. Tedco's principal
commitment is to selective, high-quality projects in metropolitan
areas. Current work in progress exceeds $100,000,000.00 including
the development or hotels, office buildings, mixed-use urban proj-
ects, shopping centers and residential developments.
C. Proposed Conditions and Restrictions
The Applicant proposes that the conditions enumerated below be
imposed as the amended and restated CUPD to ensure the high-quality
and orderly development or Brandermill Landing:
1 Brandermill Landing will be designed and developed
as an integrated whole in substantial conrormity with the pro-
posed land use plan entitled "Conceptual Site Plan" submitted
herewith (the "Master Plan"), prepared by The 0.1. Design
Group.
Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AlCP, P.E.
Page 4
March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988)
2. Buffer strips shall be provided along Harbour pointe
Parkway as shown on the Master Plan. If sufficient vegetation
exists to provide adequate screening, buffer strips may be
left in their natural state; however, if sufficient vegetation
does not exist within the buffer strip to provide adequate
screening, or if a buffer strip is not left in its natural
state due to improvements, said buffer strip shall be planted
and/or bermed in accordance with a landscape plan approved by
the Planning Department.
The following improvements may be allowed within the
buffer strips subject to the approval of such landscape plan:
(a) Pedestrian paths.
(b) Regulatory and information signs.
(c) Screening fences or 'i/alls.
(d) Utilities and storm drainage facilities.
(e) Roads and Drives which are intended for emer-
gency ingress and egress, and from the Property.
These buffer strips shall be noted on any final site
plans, and on any final check and recordation plats. At the
request of the Applicant, the Planning Commission may modify
these buffer strips and provide for additional uses to be per-
mitted therein at the time of preliminary site plan review.
3. The Property shall be developed in accordance with
the Corridor Overlay District requirements as set forth in
Division 11.2 of the Chesterfield County zoning Ordinance, ex-
cept as set forth in Condition 7 hereof.
4. The following uses shall be permitted on the R-7 and
M-l portions of the Property:
(a) All uses permitted as a matter of right ln the
B-2 Community Business District.
(b) Drive-In establishments.
(c) Cocktail lounges and dining establishments.
(d) Outside storage.
Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E,
Page 5
March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988)
5. The following uses shall be permitted on the
o portion of the Property:
(a) ~ll uses permitted as a matter of right ln the
o Office Business District.
(b) Banks, including drive-up facilities.
(c) Parking and access for uses permitted on the
remainder of the Property.
6. The Applicant agrees to notify the Manager of the
Brandermill Community Association of its filing of any request
for schematic plan approval by the County.
7. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, one hun-
dred (100) feet of right-of-way measured from the centerline
of U.S. Route 360 shall be dedicated by deed of dedication to
Chesterfield County free and unrestricted~ however, all set-
backs shall be measured from the boundary line of the Property
as it exists prior to such dedication.
8. To provide for an adequate roadway system as a re-
sult of the development of Brandermill Landing, the Applicant
shall be responsible for the following improvements:
(a) Dual left-turn lanes from east-bound U.S. Route
360 at the median breaks located near the western bound-
ary of the Property and near the middle of the Property,
such median breaks being substantially as shown on the
Master Plan.
(b) If warranted, one-half the cost of
signalization at (i) the entrance road near the western
edge of the Property, (ii) the median break on U.S. Route
360 near the middle of the Property as shown on the Mas-
ter Plan, and (iii) the intersection of U.S. Route 360
and Harbour pointe Parkway.
9. No "fast food" restaurants shall be permitted on any
outparcels east of the main entrance road near the middle of
the Property. For purposes hereof, a "fast food" restaurant
is hereby defined as an establishment whose principal business
is the sale of foods and beverages to consumers in a
ready-to-consume state and which foods and beverages are usu-
ally served in paper, plastic or other disposable containers
or wrappers for immediate consumption either within the res-
taurant-building or off the premises.
Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E.
Page 6
March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988)
D. Transportation Considerations
The Applicant recognizes that a development such as
Brandermill Landing cannot be professionally implemented or commer-
cially successful unless traffic is efficiently and effectively
handled. For those reasons, the Applicant has retained the ser-
vices of Wilbur Smith Associates, internationally-recognized traf-
fic consultants, to prepare a comprehensive traffic study which is
included in the Application. The results of the traffic impact
study indicate, and the implementation of its recommendations in-
sure, that the required transportation system will be in place to
effectively handle the traffic generated by Brandermill Landing.
At the request of the residents of Harbour pointe Subdivision,
the Master Plan has deleted the extension of Harbour pointe Park-
way. This has resulted in a significant increase in buffering and
allowed the main shopping center to shift further away from the
residents of Harbour Hill.
E. Conditional Use Planned Develooment Standards
The Applicant will comply with all of the standards required
in the zoning Ordinance for the Planning Commission to recommend
approval of the Application and for the Board of Supervisors to ap-
prove the same. Those standards are summarized as follows:
1. The establishment, maintenance and operation of the
proposed conditional use will not be detrimental to or endan-
ger the public health, safety, morals, comfort or general wel-
fare/ inasmuch as the Property will be developed in substan-
tial conformance with the Master Plan, the Corridor Overlay
District Standards and the other restrictions applicable to
the Conditional Use. Furthermore, hours of operation and de-
livery schedules will be controlled to minimize the impact on
the adjacent residential neighborhood.
2. The proposed conditional uses will not be injurious
to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate
vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially
diminish or impair property values within the surrounding
neighborhoods and in fact will provide for a more controlled
and much higher quality of development than is permitted under
the present CUPD affecting the Property. Manufacturing and
industrial uses would be precluded as a result.
3. The establishment of the proposed conditional uses
will not impede the normal and orderly development and
Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E.
Page 7
March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988)
improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted by
the zoning Ordinance because of the care and quality inherent
in the proposed development. It would further enhance the or-
derly development by guaranteeing a one-time disruption for
construction, eliminating the possibility or multiple access
points on Harbour pointe Parkway, and permit the master plan-
ning for storm water drainage for the entire site in a coordi-
nated fashion.
4. The exterior architectural appeal of Brandermill
Landing will cause an increase in the property values within
the area over that which would result from development as per-
mitted by the existing CUPD.
5. Adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other
necessary facilities have been or will be provided for the en-
tire site in an integrated manner.
6. Adequate measures have been or will be taken to pro-
vide ingress and egress designed so as to minimize traffic
congestion within the public road system and to protect the
adjacent residential neighborhood.
F. Benefits to the County
The Applicant respectfully requests that the amendment to the
Conditional Use as requested by the Application be granted in ac-
cordance with the provisions hereof, for the following reasons:
1. Brandermill Landing will provide high-quality
shopping opportunities to service the expansion of nearby res-
idential and office development.
2. Brandermill Landing will be a well-planned, inte-
grated and aesthetically pleasing development that will result
ln the highest and best use of the Property.
3. It will provide for large tract development of an
approximately 53 acre parcel of land located on a major arte-
rial highway in a coordinated and well planned manner and
eliminate the potential for piecemeal development.
4. The Applicant and the Development Team have exten-
sive experience in accomplishing high-quality development
projects in a manner that is consistent with the high stan-
dards set by Brandermill and by Chesterfield County.
Mr. Thomas E. Jacobson, AICP, P.E.
Page 8
March 14, 1988 (revised June 20, 1988)
5. Brandermill Landing will provide a major increase 1n
the real estate tax base of Chesterfield County and will also
cause a very substantial and beneficial "ripple" tax effect
for the County by increasing employment, business, sales and
other taxes.
6. Brandermill Landing will provide an economic balance
with the concentration of residential and office development
In the area.
7. Brandermill Landing will not adversely Impact the
County School System or other public services.
G. Conclusion
For the reasons set forth above, the Applicant respectfully
requests that the Planning Staff and Planning Commission recommend
approval, and that the County Board of Supervisors so approve the
request as set forth in the Application.
Respectfully submitted,
