Use of the public wastewater system is intended and has been proffered. (Proffered Condition) ENVIRONMENT AL Drainage and Erosion: The subj ect property drains to the north and then via storm sewers and open channels to Proctor's Creek:. There are currently no lmown on- or off-site drainage or erosion problems and none are anticipated after development. The entire property exhibits characteristics of wetlands and these wetlands mayor may not exist in the portion of the property being requested for re-zoning. PUBLIC FACILITIES Fire Service: Airport Fire Station, Company Number 15, currently provides fire protection and emergency medical service (EMS). This request will have a minimal impact on fire and EMS. Transportation: This request will not limit development to a specific land use; therefore, it is difficult to anticipate traffic generation. Based on general office trip rates, development could generate approximately 850 average daily trips. Traffic generated by this development will be distributed along Iron Bridge Road (Route 10), which had a 2004 traffic volume of 26,520 vehicles per day between Beach Road and Route 288. Based on the volume of traffic it carried during peak: hours, Route lOin this area was functioning at an acceptable level. (Level of Service C) During site plan review, specific recommendations will be made regarding access and internal circulation. LAND USE Comprehensive Plan: Lies within the boundaries of the Central Area Plan which suggests the property is appropriate for mixed use corridor uses which includes office and residential land uses. Area Development Trends: The area is characterized by Chesterfield County governmental uses and residential land uses. The parent parcel is zoned Agricultural (A), and it is staffs understanding the existence of wetlands may hinder development of that portion of the property. 3 06SN0256-AUG22-BOS Development Standards: The request property currently lies within an Emerging Growth Area. The purpose of the Emerging Growth District Standards is to promote high quality, well-designed projects. Development of the site must conform to the development standards of the Zoning Ordinance, which address access, parlcing, landscaping, architectural treatment, setback:s, signs, buffers, utilities and screening of dumpsters and loading areas. Architectural Treatment: In addition to Emerging Growth District requirements for architectural treatment, the Zoning Ordinance requires that buildings in this area be compatible with Federalist and Colonial architecture and be compatible with buildings located in the same block: or directly across the road, unless otherwise approved by the Director of Planning based upon existence of buildings not meeting the standards. CONCLUSION The proposed zoning and land uses conform to the Central Area Plan, which suggests the property is appropriate for mixed use corridor use. In addition, the proposed zoning and land uses are representative of, and compatible with, existing and anticipated area development. Given these considerations, approval of this request is recommended.
