This application remains incomplete and inconsistent per the community advocacy group FOSCR - Friends of Swift Creek Reservoir, and myself. Jessica Schneider-We NEED you on this. Tom Baker Clover Hill 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca This proposed Zoning Amendment to the original MG development plan would dramatically alter the originally intended integrated vehicular and pedestrian design approach of a singular Town Square. This holistic design approach can be maintained while still allowing for the construction of the development in phases consistent with the developer requests. The Amendment would allow for the development of individual phased projects with no correlation to each other, absolutely not the requirements of the original Development Plan. The requested Amendment should be denied and the process restarted to much more closely represent the original requirements in a much more inclusive and transparent process allowing for the participation of all Magnolia Green residents. Amado Fernandez Matoaca 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca I have been of strong belief Tom Page and iStar’s end game is to accelerate their exit and expand their profits at the expense of Magnolia Green home owners. There are many already existing examples of this. Tom has dragged his Paul Rowson Matoaca 1/22/2025 Page 69 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District feet on the maintenance of community amenities. The HVAC system at the Grille and Pro Shop is woefully undersized in tonnage to maintain even OSHA ambient work temperature standards for employees, let alone community patrons. The Pirate Playground at our Aquatic Center is a child safety issue and has become an eyesore. The pool furniture is insufficient when at capacity and is in disrepair. This will only become worse as new homes and resident families are added to existing Magnolia Green homeowners. The Farmers Market is non-existent yet still appears as a community amenity in iStar’s online marketing materials (see link below): https://magnoliagreen.com/the -market/ We have no walking trails as advertised (sidewalks along major roads and in owner maintained neighborhoods do not constitute “nature walking trails). We have no health/gym facility as advertised. And having been an owner/general manager of a restaurant and worked at Marriott Corporate Headquarters, I can tell you that the iStar leased space to The Cardinal is a flawed business model that will most likely fail before Tom Page and iStar exit Magnolia Green with their profits and leave us residents with expenses. The proposed plan for multi- family housing exceeds the residential zoning density plan. The singular “Town Center” design for the commercial amenity iStar advertised to attract Magnolia Green home owners under the new proposed plan would allow iStar develop an 1/22/2025 Page 70 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District architecturally non-cohesive 460,000 square feet of commercial property with little-to-no concern for resident’s needs. These proposal on the table is solely in iStar’s financial interests. iStar is relying on Magnolia Green residents being uninformed and unaware of the extent of the negative impact this land use and development plan will have on the quality of life and property values of their community. For public record, the Board of Supervisors should however be able to discern the impact of the proposed plan to Magnolia Green residents and hold iStar to plan. 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca While I support lifting restrictions on retail/office space square footage, I don’t support waiving the requirement for 50% of retail/office space to be under construction before residential uses are permitted. I also don’t support elimination of the requirement for an “integrated schematic plan” for the entire project. This developer has a track record of not delivering promised amenities. The developer marketed the neighborhood as a resort- style neighborhood complete with a residents’ club and fitness center coming in 2021. In late 2020, they quietly removed the clubhouse from the amenities list – not because they couldn’t afford it, but because they weren’t required to build it – houses were selling without it and they had record sales in 2020. If you allow the developer to Richard Latham Matoaca 1/22/2025 Page 71 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District build apartments without additional retail/office space in an area that was billed as “The Marketplace at Magnolia Green,” the marketplace will consist of apartments and a daycare center, that’s it. Not much of a marketplace. The developer wants to build a 224-unit apartment complex in an area totaling about 12.4 acres. This would exceed current zoning restrictions of 14 units per acre, which would allow a maximum of 173 units for that one parcel. They’re relying on the total acreage for ALL parcels to stay within density limits for ONE parcel, but they want to remove the requirement to submit an integrated plan for ALL parcels You can’t have it both ways; you can’t include all parcels to stay within residential density limits on one parcel while ignoring how the remaining parcels might eventually be developed. Also, allowing the parcels to be developed in a piecemeal fashion will lead to a disjointed end product; think Westchester Commons – part strip mall, part town center, not very walkable, dysfunctional traffic flows, and looks ridiculous! Removing the requirement for an integrated plan increases the potential for housing density limits to be exceeded. The existing daycare center was planned, approved and expanded without an integrated plan and in violation of current zoning restrictions regarding retail/office square footage, and nobody caught it. Please do not allow (1) 1/22/2025 Page 72 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District residential uses on ANY parcel without requiring construction of additional retail/office space, or (2) individual parcels to be developed without an integrated plan for ALL parcels. 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca Please do not expand the amount of residence in the planned apartments in magnolia green near the children's center. Magnolia green is quickly becoming overpopulated as it is And that area specifically is already too dense with the apartments, aquatic center and children's center all within a mile of each other. The increase in traffic will probably already overwhelm the plan infrastructure and roads that are already built. William Cole Matoaca 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca I am concerned that the space is not sufficient for the proposed 224 unit apartment and will have negative impact to the environment and public safety. Sanish Rai Midlothian 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca Please do not allow rezoning for higher density apartment units. Every resident of the existing community I have spoken to is strongly opposed to it. Most citizens do not have the time or awareness of how their voice can be heard and actually make a difference, but I suspect if you actually surveyed residents, you would find an overwhelming opposition to this amendment and the developer's intention. Please listen to community members instead of developers in this instance. We do not believe it is in the best interest of Chesterfield County to allow this type of development to be built in the intended location. Trevor Badorrek Matoaca 1/22/2025 Page 73 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District Unscheduled matter Chairman Ingle, Members of the Chesterfield Board of Supervisors, As you may know, on October 29th, 2024, the Friends of Chesterfield conducted at People's Hearing on Dominion Energy's gas-fired power plant after the Board declined hear from its residents on this major electricity generation facility. As the Board's comment portal does not provide for the submission of attachments, I will be sending an email to each of you with the transcripts of the testimony shared at that October hearing attached. I will reference that testimony in my public comments to the Board at your Wednesday, January 22, 2025 meeting. Sincerely, Glen Besa Glen Besa Dale 22SN0089 - Thackers View Rezoning and Exceptions - Clover Hill Please include file emailed to Ryan Ramsey and distributed to the Board of Supervisors on January 21, 2025. Kathleen Medaries Clover Hill 24SN1209 - Magnolia Green Tract CC Amendment - Matoaca We live in the Magnolia Green Townhomes, close to the existing Glenmoore Oaks apartments. Adding another 224 units across the street will lower the value of our homes and the quality of our life. The tract should be developed as planned. Even another 173 rental units is too much. Please deny this zoning request. Thanks! Terry Finazzo Matoaca 24SN1192 - Ivymont Square Signage - Dale The Board of Supervisors need to ask the Ivymount Shopping Center to build a new sidewalk along LeGorden Drive and build a new 10 foot wide path or sidewalk along Route 60. Carl Schwendeman Midlothian 1/22/2025 Page 74 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District 22SN0089 - Thackers View Rezoning and Exceptions - Clover Hill Board of Supervisors: Thank you for your continued hard work and dedication to this zoning case for Thacker's View. I truly appreciate the progress made with the additional proffered conditions that support the tree canopy, even though it's not as much as initially hoped. Your efforts regarding the ordinances for RPA violations are also commendable. However, I do feel that these recent updates have come through a bit too quickly. I haven’t had sufficient time to fully review the changes, and there doesn’t appear to be a clear solution presented for the utility line issue. Additionally, there seems to be insufficient attention being given to the wetlands adjacent to Red Fern, and I’m concerned about their protection from potential destruction, particularly for a utility connector or any other reason. Given these concerns, I respectfully request that you consider deferring this decision until more stakeholders can come together to reach a consensus. This would ensure that the plans are as thoughtful and thorough as possible before moving forward, especially for a project that will leave a lasting legacy on the reservoir. I’m confident that by doing this, you’ll be in a strong position with the public to ensure the best outcome for everyone involved. Once again, thank you for all that you do on behalf of our Paula Gordon Clover Hill 1/22/2025 Page 75 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District community. I understand these decisions are not made lightly, and I trust you will continue to do everything necessary to get this right for all parties involved. I urge you to defer. Consider Amendments to County Ordinance Regarding Control of Animals and Leash Requirements To ensure public safety and prevent harm, I support a significant increase in fines for those who fail to comply with leash laws. I have neighbors in my area who let their unfriendly dogs roam, I ran into an off-leash dog while running at Point of Rocks Park just last week whose owner was down by the water birding and not within 100 yards of the dog. I was also at a Chesterfield playground with an owner with two off-leash dogs over Christmas break. I hope the increased fines act as a deterrent. Jacilyn Lipford Dale 22SN0089 - Thackers View Rezoning and Exceptions - Clover Hill This case should be deferred or voted No. The citizen comments have not fully been addressed. Additional proffers were added on January 17 2025 but the community has not had a chance to engage the community on these. The community needs more time for engagement. Kim Owens Matoaca 22SN0089 - Thackers View Rezoning and Exceptions - Clover Hill We are not interested in any mthing but a potential restaurant, the constant reasoning and building of high density homes, the extension of 76 and the congestion you all are creating in our schools with zero plans to accommodate the population growth are disgusting. We don’t want any of this. Kyle Zawadzki Clover Hill 1/22/2025 Page 76 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District 22SN0089 - Thackers View Rezoning and Exceptions - Clover Hill Dr. Mr Ingle, I tried to contribute a public comment via the web site earlier today but got an error when trying on my iPhone. (I can send a screenshot if you need proof I attempted this before the deadline). Here are my comments about the Thacker View development. I live on a lot adjacent to Thacker View on the reservoir on Clipper Cove Ct across the small Rock Harbor inlet. This development will directly affect every household on Clipper Cove Ct. as well as the larger community. Therefore, as an adjacent property owner, I believe our voice holds greater power. The vote on the 22nd needs to be to defer. There is not enough clarity on recent changes, not enough time for the community to comment, and several issues have still not been addressed. Townhouses do not meet the requirements in the countywide plan to be allowed as an exception. In addition, their height will exceed the canopy and will violate a standard of development on the reservoir that developers have maintained for 40 years. Do not show rooftops above the tree canopy. If all of the other developments that are on Swift Creek Reservoir could build on their land WITHOUT townhomes, why can’t this development follow suit? Whether a board member sits in Clover hill or not, this development in Chesterfield County is high visibility and will be remembered by the voting public. Lisa Disselkamp Clover Hill 1/22/2025 Page 77 of 77 Comment Type Comment Name District Please…..Defer and get this Plan right. Regards, Lisa Disselkamp
