5 lots adjacent to Shenandoah subdivision limited to offices, a maximum of 2
stories, with architectural style to blend with area residential (Attachment 5)
75-foot setback/buffer adjacent to residential properties, preserving existing
vegetation and supplemented to provide a visual screen
Proposal
The applicant plans to construct a building in which to store an Emergency Response
Operations vehicle for the Virginia Department of Emergency Management, a futuretenant
within the office building located on the same property. This accessory structure would permit
the vehicle and related equipment to be secured and away from outdoor elements. As
proposed, other tenants within the same office building would also be permitted to store
vehicles or other materials within this building.
While the approved zoning permits light industrial and limited commercial uses within the
majority of Moorefield Park, use of the subject property and four neighboring parcels adjacent
to Shenandoah subdivision are limited to office buildings (Case 81SN0072, Condition 19). As
such, a zoning amendment is required to permit the proposed storage building.

transportation needs that are expected to mitigate traffic impacts of future growth. The
anticipated traffic impact of the proposal has been evaluated and it is anticipated to be
minimal.
FIRE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES

The applicant’s request to construct a 4,000 square foot garage to store one emergency vehicle
should have minimal impact on the public water and wastewater systems.
The owner of the existing structure located on the subject property (9701 Farrar Court., GPIN: 749-
706-7926) is a current County utility customer (2” domestic meter/1” irrigation meter) connected
to the public water and wastewater systems. Any additional fixtures to be associated with the
proposed structure will necessitate the submission of an updated meter sizing form for meter size
verification purposes as part of the site plan or building permit process, whichever is applicable.
The Utilities Department supports this case.
