The use of the public water system is a condition of zoning for case 86S 117, and remains applicable for any development on the property with the approval of the current request. The results of a computer simulated fire flow test indicate that sufficient flow and pressure should be available to meet the domestic and fire flow needs of the proposed use. Fire flow requirements are established and coordinated through Fire Administration. Public Wastewater System There is an eight (8) inch wastewater line located at the northwest corner of the request site. The use of the public wastewater system is a condition of zoning for case 86S 117, and remains applicable for any development on the property with the approval of the current request. The results of a computer simulated hydraulic analysis indicate that sufficient capacity should be available to accommodate nows for the proposed use. Environmental: Drainage and Erosion Site drains via storm sewers into an artificial lake in Waterford, then to Nuttree Branch and ultimately to Swift Creek at a point downstream of Swift Creek Reservoir. No existing or anticipated on- or off-site drainage or erosion problems. Fire Service: In November, 1988, a general obligation bond was approved by voters for the purpose of providing a fire station to serve the Brandermill, Genito Road and Coalfield Road areas. Since approval of the bond, the Fire Department has considered several sites and has chosen the request property which meets the Fire Department's criteria for located a fire station to serve these areas. 3 95SN0170/WP/DEC140 Transportation: The proposed use will have a minimal impact on the transportation network. LAND USE General Plan: Lies within the boundaries of the Upper Swift Creek Plan, which designates the site and surrounding area for regional mixed use development. Area Development Trends: The request property is part of Waterford mixed use development. Properties to the north and west have been developed for commercial uses, and properties to the northeast and east have been developed for multi-family uses, as part of the overall Waterford development. Property to the south, across Genito Road from the subject property, is zoned and deveJoped for light industrial uses within Brandermill Trade Center. Zoning History: On August 27, 1986, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation from the Planning Commission, approved rezoning with Conditional Use Planned Development on the request property and adjacent property to the north, east and west to permit a mixed use development, to include office, commercial, industrial and multi-family uses (Gulfstream Development Corporation, Case 86S 117). On March 22,1989, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation by the Planning Commission, approved an amendment to Case 86S 117 to permit a shopping center on the request property and adjacent property to the north and west (Waterford at Brandermill, Case 89SN0150). Site Design: Architectural Treatment: Buffers: and Screening: Conditions of zoning approval for Cases 86S116 and 89SN0150, together with the recommended conditions, address site design and development standards for any fire station developed on the request property. In particular, recommended Condition 2 would prohibit external sirens and public address systems, and would further require that garage doors be screened from area residential development to the northeast and east unless the doors are made architecturally compatible with area residences. 4 95SN0170/WP/DEC140 - - .- Conclusions: The proposed fire station use conforms to the Upper Swift Creek Land Use Plan, which designates the property for regional mixed use, and is representative of existing and anticipated area development in Brandermill and Waterford. In addition, the development standards outlined in existing and recommended conditions of zoning approval ensure compatibility with existing area residential development, and further ensure quality development. Therefore, approval of this request is recommended. CASE HISTORY Planning Commission Meeting (11/15194): A representative of the Fire Department accepted the recommendation.
