CALL TO ORDER
Vice-Chairman Dove called the worksession to order. He stated that after the 11 applications
have been reviewed he would poll the Board regarding whether or not to send each application
forward for study.
Senior Planner Susan Eddy advised that all of this year's requests were for Urban
Development Area expansion. She went on to say that many ofthe applications had provisions for
a community facility, road improvements, or a particular type of housing; however, the Board's
focus should be on the basic land use. She then advised the Board of the number of undeveloped
lots within the Urban Development Area: 9,191 residential lots and 25,895 lots with residential
potential
Staff then reviewed each application:
#01-05 - Jordan Springs - This proposal contains two lots totaling 135 acres and is located

adjacent to Stephenson Village. The property is zoned RA with no current land use designation.
This project will be a mixed use residential/commercial development.
Commissioner Straub asked the applicant how many acres were zone RP (Residential
Performance ).
Chuck Maddox, Patton, Harris, Rust, & Associates, advised that 125 acres would be RP. He
went on to say that it seemed timely that this site be planned in light of the Stephenson Village
project.
#02-05 - Crosspointe - This proposal contains 1 parcel totaling 52.10 acres. The current
zoning is RA (Rural Areas). The requested land use is residential.
Supervisor Forrester asked why this 52 acres was not submitted with the original Crosspointc
proj ect.
Senior Planner Eddy responded that it was not in the Urban Development Area or Sewer and
Water Service Area.
Vice-Chairman Dove asked if Warrior Drive would be affected because this parcel was not
in the UDA.
Planning Director Eric Lawrence stated that Warrior Drive would be built to the extent of
the property; however, if the 52 acres were rezoned then it would guarantee that Warrior Drive
would cross the creek.
Mr. Maddox stated that when Crosspointe was rezoned the applicant held the existing UDA
line. He went on to say that extending the line would allow another rezon ing and proffer of Warrior
Drive to the property line.
#03-05 - Huntsberry Estate - This proposal contains two parcels located adjacent to
Stephenson Village. The current land zoning is RA (Rural Areas) and the current land use plan is
historic. The requested land use plan is residential.
Mr. Maddox stated that this property was in the UDA approximately two years ago but was
removed by a Comprehensive Plan change. He went on to say that a rezoning on this site, with
proffers, would help implement a transportation plan.
#04-05 - Leonard Property - This proposal contains two parcels located within the Route

522/277 triangle and contains 57.3 acres. The property is zoned RA (Rural Areas) and there is no
current land use designated. The requested land use is residential.
David Frank, Dewberry, advised that as the UDA study moves forward he would like to be
involved in that discussion.
Supervisor Tyler asked if the owner was looking at a residential use on the site.
Mr. Frank responded yes.
#05-05 - Moreland Lane - The proposal contains four parcels totaling 130 acres located
adjacent to 1-81 welcome center. The property is zoned RA with no land use designation. The
proposed use calls for a mixed use residential/business. Following receipt of this submission, the
applicant sent out follow up letters advising that this project would be an age restricted residential
development with no commercial.
Ty Lawson advised that the intent was to develop this property as age restricted residential.
There would be no mixed use on the property.
In response to Supervisor Ewing's question concerning this property's location to the UDA,
Senior Planner Eddy responded that the current UDA is non-contiguous to this parcel.
Mr. Lawson advised that the property was bounded by residential on the west, south, and
east, and was adjacent to the 1-81 welcome center.
#06-05 - Arcadia - Rt. 277 - This proposal contains six parcels within the Route 522/277
triangle totaling 169 acres. The property is zoned RA (Rural Areas) with no land use designation.
The proposed request calls for mixed use residential/business.
Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering, advised that about 20 acres of this proposal would be
commercial. The applicant sees the ability to do a public trail system on the north side of the
property. This project has the ability to strip density from the Southern Hills project.
#07-05 - Arcadia - Rt. 50 East - This proposal contains one parcel totaling 59 acres within
the Sewer and Water Service Area. The property is zoned B2 (General Business) and the current
land use is business. The requested land use under this proposal is mixed use business/residential.
Mr. Wyatt advised that the property was brought up last year at this time. The applicant is
now looking at a different land use plan with 2/3 of the property business and 1/3 residential. The

applicant and representatives had looked at this site as a possible target area for the proposed
aquatics facility.
#08-05 - Blackburn Limited Partnership - This propcrty is located on both sides of Route 37
and contains two parcels totaling 234 acres. The parcels are partially located in the UDA and
SWSA. The portion located inside Route 37 is planned industrial. The parcel outside of Route 37
is zoned RA (Rural Areas) with no land use designation. The requested land use is planned unit
development.
Mark Smith, Greenway Engineering, advised that 128 acres was located inside Route 37 and
105 acres located outside. This could be a possible site for a school bus maintenance facility. This
proposal gives the opportunity to bring an on/off ramp onto Shady Elm, an access road to parallel
Route 37, and an off-ramp on the Blackburn property. The planned unit development seems to make
sense.
Supervisor Van Osten asked about the density for the residential portion.
Mr. Smith responded 3 to 3.5 acres and that the applicant would pay for the exits off of
Route 37.
#09-05 - Bowman-Shoemaker - This proposal contains four parcels adjacent to Sherando
High School totaling 124 acres. The property is zoned B2 and RA with a current land use plan of
business and no land use. The applicant is requesting a mix of residential and business.
Mr. Wyatt advised that this plan calls for additional ingress and egress for Sherando High
School. A five-acre portion would be used for practice fields by the high school. Of this
development, 30 acres would be commercial and 50 acres would be business.
#10-05 - Madison Farms - This proposal contains one parcel totaling 149 acres. The
property is zoned RA with no land use designation. The application is requesting a residential land
use.
#11-05 - Summit Point - This proposal contains one parcel totaling 19.6 acres. It is located
within the Sewer and Water Service Area and is zoned RA, with no land use designation. The
application is requesting a residential land use. The proposal is located within the Stephenson
