(11/2017) Conditions of approval included quality standards for foundations, driveways, landscaping, architecture and building materials. *The staff reports for these cases analyzed the impact of the proposed development on public Proposal The applicant is requesting to rezone 101.5 acres within the existing Chesdin Landing subdivision to allow for smaller, age-restricted lots. The resulting density is 0.7 unit per acre. The applicant intends that the area to be rezoned be recorded as a section of the existing Chesdin L The subject property is part of the 2,170 acres zoned with Case 95SN0161 to permit the single family subdivision being developed as Chesdin Landing. As noted above, in 2001, an amendment was approved (Case 02SN0111) to permit a maximum of 635 lots on the 2,170 acres yielding a density of 0.3 dwelling unit per acre. The chart on the following page evaluates the density of the overall Chesdin Landing subdivision with and without the current proposal. While the proposed development would yield 0.7 dwelling unit per acre, density within the overall Chesdin Landing subdivision (calculated with and without the subject acreage) would continue to comply with the existing zoning density of 0.3 dwelling unit per acre. Further, the overall development would remain below the 0.5 dwelling unit per acre, as suggested by the Comprehensive Plan. 19SN0552-2018NOV14-BOS-RPT Density Existing Zoning Current Existing Zoning Overall Proposal Minus Current Development Proposal Acreage 2,170 101.5 2,068.5 2,170 Number of 635 71 635 706 Lots Yield 0.3 0.7 0.3 0.33 Design High quality residential development addresses the Comprehensive Plan goals for strong and sustainable neighborhoods that are visually attractive, well-planned and well-maintained.

BUDGET & MANAGEMENT Staff Contact: Natalie Spillman (804-318-8767) spillmann@chesterfield.gov County finance staff is responsible for managing the finances of the County and making recommendations to the County Administrator regarding the allocation of available resources for the provision of services and capital facilities to serve the citizens of the County. Finance staff will advise the County Administrator if changed economic circumstances require COUNTY TRANSPORTATION Staff Contact: Steve Adams (804) 748-1037 adamsSt@chesterfield.gov The property could be developed for 71 lots/units. Based on those numbers of lots and applying trip generation rates for a senior housing (detached) unit, development could generate approximately 420 average daily trips. Traffic generated by development of the property will be initially distributed via Lake Chesdin Parkway to Ivey Mill Road and River Road. Ivey Mill Road is a collector with a recommended right of way width of 70 feet. Ivey Mill Road is a two-lane road. Sections of the road have been improved. Other sections of the road are substandard, with approximately 10- foot lane widths and no usable shoulders. VDOT minimum geometric design standards recommend this road have 12-foot lane widths and 10-foot shoulders. In 2015, the traffic count jor arterial with a recommended right of way width of 90 feet. River Road is a two-lane road. Sections of the road are substandard, with approximately 10-foot lane widths and no usable shoulders. VDOT minimum geometric design standards recommend this road have 12-foot lane widths and 10- foot shoulders. In 2015, the traffic count on River Road at Ivey Mill Road was 2,930 vehicles per Section 19.1-231 of the County Code outlines the general requirements to meet the needs of the traffic generated by a proposed development, including acceptable levels of service. This proposed residential development would contribute to an identifiable need for transportation improvements. The applicant has not offered to provide any mitigating road improvements. The property is within Traffic Shed 16, which encompasses a large area in the southern part of the county, south of River Road, Hickory Road, Matoaca Road, and Woodpecker Road. Many roads in this part of the county have little or no shoulders, fixed objects (trees) adjacent to the edge of the pavement and poor vertical and horizontal alignments. The traffic volume 19SN0552-2018NOV14-BOS-RPT generated from this proposed residential development will contribute to an identifiable need for transportation facility improvements to these roads in excess of existing transportation facility capacity. Roads in this shed or which serve this shed need to be improved or widened to address safety and accommodate increased traffic, including the increased traffic from the proposed development. transportation network through dedication of property, construction of road improvements, or a cash proffer. If an applicant elects to offer cash to address the imp transportation network, Transportation staff has calculated the average impact of a single- family dwelling unit on the transportation network to be $12,652; however, the Board of Supervisors has adopted a policy establishing that it would accept a maximum cash proffer of $9,400 per dwelling unit as addressing the traffic impacts of residential development, with all of the funds to be dedicated towards improvements to the road network. The Policy allows the county to consider mitigating circumstances about a proposed development. In this case, the residential development will be limited to senior housing (detached) dwelling units which generate approximately 46% of the traffic of single-family dwelling unit. The traffic impact of the senior housing (detached) unit could be addressed with $4,324 ($9,400 x 46%) per unit. The traffic impact could be valued at $307,004 ($4,324 x 71). The applicant has proffered to pay $4,324 per dwelling unit (Proffered Condition 5). Staff supports the request.

FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES Staff Contact: Anthony Batten (804-717-6167) battena@chesterfield.gov Mission The mission of Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) is to protect life, property and the environment through a comprehensive fire and life safety program that ensures an adequate and timely response to emergencies. Response Times The proposed development is located in the rural response zone for which Fire & EMS has a goal of responding to at least 90% of the calls for service in under twelve (12) minutes. Fire and EMS is currently unable to meet that goal. 19SN0552-2018NOV14-BOS-RPT Nearby Fire/EMS Facilities The Phillips Fire Station, Company Number 13 The Winterpock Fire Station, Company Number 19 Anticipated Fire & EMS Impacts/Needs Based on an average of .296 calls per dwelling, it is estimated that this development will generate 21 annual calls for Fire/EMS services. Additional Fire and EMS Comments When the property is developed, the number of hydrants, quantity of water needed for fire protection, and access requirements will be evaluated during the plans review process. SCHOOLS Staff Contact: Atonja Allen (804-318-8740) atonja_allen@ccpsnet.net 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 FY2019 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 FY2019. 19SN0552-2018NOV14-BOS-RPT Anticipated School Impacts Elementary Middle High Total (1) Anticipated Student Yield by 0 0 0 0 School Type Schools Currently Serving Area O.B.

Additional Schools Comments After review of this request for age-restricted dwelling units, the proposed rezoning case may have minimal impact on school facilities. Recent research on the actual student yield from age-restricted housing reported in April 2016 revealed that there was a small yield (four elementary students out of the total school population) from all age-managed dwelling units. It is possible however, that over time this case combined with other proposed residential developments and other zoning cases in the area will continue to push schools to their capacity and therefore impact the capacity of facilities division-wide.
