Belvedere Development Company, LLC
Midlothian Magisterial District
North line of Robious Road
REQUEST: Amendment to Conditional Use Planned Development (Case 02SN0214) relative to
phasing of commercial development.
PROPOSED LAND USE:
The applicant wishes to be issued a certificate of occupancy for permitted uses on
the subject parcel, upon the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy for a
building of at least 2,300 gross square feet on adjacent property to the east.
Current conditions of zoning would not allow the issuance of the certificate of
occupancy until such time as a temporary certificate of occupancy for a building
of at least 4,000 gross square feet has been issued.
PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMEND APPROVAL AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROFFERED CONDITION ON
PAGE 2.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Recommend ap.proval for the following reason:

UTILITIES
Public Water and Wastewater Systems:
The proposed amendment will have no impact on the required use of the public water and
wastewater systems. (Case: 02SN0214, Proffered Condition 13)
ENVIRONMENTAL AND PUBLIC FACILITIES
This request will have a minimal impact on these facilities.
LAND USE
Comprehensive Plan:
Lies within the boundaries of the Northern Area Plan which suggests the property is
appropriate for light industrial use.
Area Development Trends:
Area properties are characterized by a mix of zonings and land uses. Specifically, mini-
warehouse facilities are located on the 1-1 property to the north and west. Property to the
south is zoned and developed for commercial and office uses. Adjacent property to the
east has developed with multifamily residential uses and an office/bank use is under
construction.
It is anticipated that existing land uses on properties to the north, east and west will
continue, as is suggested by the Northern Area Land Use Plan. The
Huguenot/Robious/Midlothian Area Plan anticipates a mixture of integrated office parks,
commercial, light industrial and/or higher density residential uses continuing to the south.
Zoning History:
On June 23, 1999, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation from the
Planning Commission, approved the rezoning to Corporate Office (0-2) of a portion of
the subject property which fronts on Robious Road (Case 99SN0253). A convalescent,
nursing or rest home was planned; however, other Corporate Office (0-2) uses were
permitted.
On June 26, 2002, the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation from the
Planning Commission, approved the rezoning from Corporate Office (0-2) to
Neighborhood Business (C-2) of the request property along with the rezoning of adjacent
property to the east. (Case 02SN0214)

Site Design:
The property lies within an Emerging Growth District Area. Development must conform to
the requirements of the Emerging Growth District Area. The Zoning Ordinance specifically
addresses access, landscaping, setbacks, parking, signs, buffers, utilities and screening of
outside storage areas. The purpose of the Emerging Growth District standards is to promote
high quality, well-designed projects.
CONCLUSION
The proposed amendment, with the existing development on the adjacent property to the east,
would continue to establish the desired transition between commercial development on the
request site and residential development to the east.
Given these considerations, approval of this request is recommended.
CASE HISTORY
Planning Commission Meeting (8/15/06):
The applicant accepted the recommendation. There was no opposition present.
On motion of Mr. Gecker, seconded by Mr. Gulley, the Commission recommended
approval and acceptance of the proffered conditions on page 2.
AYES: Messrs. Wilson, Gecker, Bass, Gulley and Litton.
The Board of Supervisors, on Wednesday, September 27,2006, beginning at 7:00 p.m., will take
under consideration this request.
