THIS Minute Book Number 27 Board of Supervisors Meeting of 04/22/02 729 PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON MILL WOOD PIKE (ROUTE 50 E). NORTH OF THE WESTVIEW BUSINESS CENTER. IN THE SHAWNEE MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT. A SMALL PORTION OF THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY IN THE SWSA - APPROVED Assistant Planning Director Lawrence presented this request to the Board advising that the site is included in the Route 50 East Corridor Land Use Plan, the plan resulting from the land use study undertaken in 1994. The Plan identifies the site for commercial use. The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Subcommittee (CPPS) considered this request on February 11,2002. The CPPS believed, that based on the site's present B2 (Business General) District zoning and its proximity to other commercial and industrial uses, it would be appropriate to include the site in the County's Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). He further advised that the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors have both reviewed this request in a discussion format. Following the Board's discussion, staff was directed to schedule the SWSA request for public hearing. Supervisor Smith asked if the property owner would be responsible for the cost of this project. Assistant Lawrence replied yes. Supervisor Forrester asked what is located to the east of the property. Assistant Lawrence advised it was agricultural land, RA use. There was no public comment.

TO REZONE 5.1 ACRES OF RP (RESIDENTIAL PERFORMANCE) AND 149.3 ACRES OF RA (RURAL AREAS) TO 116.7 ACRES OF M1 (LIGHT INDUSTRIAL): 23.2 ACRES OF B2 (BUSINESS GENERAL): AND 14.5 ACRES OF B3 aNDUSTRIAL TRANSITION). THIS PROPERTY IS BOUNDED BY INTERSTATE 81 ON THE WEST AND MARTINSBURG PIKE ON THE EAST AND SOUTH. AND IS IDENTIFIED WITH PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 43-A-96: 43-A-97: 43-A-98: 43-A-99: 43-A-100 AND 43-A-111 IN THE STONEWALL MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT - APPROVED Assistant Lawrence presented this request to the Board. (Director Wyatt was not present for Minute Book Number 27 Board of Supervisors Meeting of 04/22/02 730 this request). He advised this request was presented to the Planning Commission in November of 2001. Due to some outstanding transportation issues it was deferred until February of this year at which time the Planning Commission recommended approval. Assistant Lawrence explained the location of the acreage, by way of maps, on display behind the Board. He advised that the entire 154 acres is being requested to be included within the interstate area overlay, which essentially allows for the higher signs. As far as the Comprehensive Policy Plan pertains to this property, the parcel is within the county's sewer and water service area and is a component of both the Northeast Land Use Plan which was adopted in September of2000, and its predecessor, the Route 11 Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board in 1997. This property has been within the sewer and water service area since the sewer and water service area was established. He further advised that a number of potential impacts have been identified throughout this process. He started with the transportation impact advising that the applicant has projected traffic in two different ways using the IT (traditional) method and projected approximately 9700 vehicles per day would be generated from this property. Based upon comparison of some of the other industrial parks within the county the applicant feels the reality would be closer to 5000 vehicles per day. He further advised that both staff and VDOT concurs this is certainly a valid range. He further advised that the applicant has provided projections utilizing figures that the Sanitation Authority feels are appropriate. Reasonable projection is 500 gallons per day, per acre, and reasonable to assume that would be generated for sewer uses and approximately 1,000 gallons per day, per acre, would be the quantity of water that would be used in this type of industrial park. This is based on some analysis that was done a couple of years ago, and the Sanitation Authority feels these number are accurate. Based upon these figures the applicant feels for the 154 acres there would be a usage of approximately 154,000 gallons of water per day and 77 gallons per day of sewer service discharge. The Sanitation Authority has stated that they feel there is adequate capacity within the county's current system to accommodate this. The Rutherford Farm, which is a historic site, as well as the properties in close proximity to it, The Second Battle of Winchester, and the Battle of Rutherford's Farm. The Historic Resources Advisory Board did review this application, on three different occasions. Their recommendation was to endorse the proffers that the applicant had offered. The proffer statement submitted by the applicant has been reviewed by the county attorney, signed by the property owners, and it is in conformance with the standard format that the county accepts. Mr. Smith listed the proffers as spelled out in the Minute Book Number 27 Board of Snpervisors Meeting of 04/22/02 731 Board's agenda information. In conclusion, he advised that this request is in conformance with the Sewer and Water Service Area, the Comprehensive Plan, the Northeast Land Use Plan. These plans call for commercial and industrial use on this property, and this is what is being sought. He further advised that at the Planning Commission meeting in November, the outstanding issue was transportation, at which time six citizens addressed this concern, and at that time the applicant requested to have this request tabled. He further advised that at the February 6,2002 meeting, both staff and VDOT concurred that the applicant had attempted to mitigate the transportation impacts through the revised proffer statement. This statement provided for a traffic signal at the south bound lane for Interstate 81 at Route 11 and some other proffers which assisted in providing for the Route 81 right-of-way and future expansion project. Buildings will not be placed within the future Interstate 81 expansion area but the land will be made available to VDOT. The Planning Commission does feel that the proposal is appropriate and therefore recommends approval. Supervisor Tyler referred to the DSA planting area and asked if this was going to have some plants established in the berms between the homes that are located adjacent to the inland portion. Assistant Lawrence replied that the homes directly adjacent to the industrial park, this particular berm would not be adjacent to them. The county has a zoning district with buffer requirements which far exceeds this proffered berm. Supervisor Tyler also addressed the storm water management and asked where this would be addressed. Assistant Lawrence advised this is done typically during the master plan stages. Supervisor Reyes addressed the proffer statement as it relates to the area of construction of a major collector road, and asked where is this road located. Assistant Lawrence explained that it was the red line on the map. It will end at the property line. Supervisor Forrester asked about the impacted road systems in the area and there current level of service. Homer Coffman with VDOT appeared before the Board and advised that the developer could better answer this question. Mark Smith of Greenway Engineering advised that he would need a few minutes to look up this information. He advised that on the build out, what you are going to have is basically Minnte Book Number 27 Board of Supervisors Meeting of 04/22/02 732 maintaining C's andB's all along Route 11. He would provide this information in two parts, Route 11 and then Interstate 81. This is the same exercise presented to the Planning Commission. He advised that this has been a very long process. The exiting on Route 11, the ITE Manual, all the numbers and these projections, and the level of services is on the higher numbers for the Institute of Traffic Engineers. The 317 Interchange conditions change depending on the time of day. Supervisor Forrester asked Mr. Smith ifhe was anticipating the stacking of trucks on the interchange because of those conditions? Mr. Smith replied that it all depends again on the use ofthe interchange it self If you have a large number of trucks that are using the southbound exit ramp, yes, you could have stacking. Supervisor Tyler referred to the wording "when warranted." She would like to know what the conditions are that stipulate from VDOT when it is warranted, and additionally what time frame from when you feel it is warranted until we can have corrected answers. Mr. Coffman answered the second part first. When warranted, we would expect the signal would be installed within six months, once the warrants are met. First part of the question has to do with the document he had, which he would be happy to share, there are actually eleven different warrants, some of which, to meet a warrant you may have a combination of two or three, or a combination of more than that to make the warrant. Supervisor Tyler - Ifwe start to see a problem that's addressed with traffic she would like to move forward immediately instead of waiting to get this done. She would like to see the signalization, the road improvements done when the first person is getting ready to open their doors and move trucks. Mr. Coffman advised the process of evaluating, which would go forward right away. Supervisor Tyler requested a copy of this information from VDOT. Kevin Kennedy, Gainesboro District, feels there is something to be said to using some portion of this land for some sort of development. He told the Board that he felt this was a wonderful opportunity for the entire Board to handle the development proposal differently from how it has been done in the past. He does feel more can be done in the area of proffers. He urged the Board to keep control of this. Sam Lehman, Back Creek District, advised that in looking at the tax records, the county has over 800 acres of vacant M -1 land, 281 vacant acres ofM -2 land, and other parcels north of Stephens Minute Book Number 27 Board of Supervisors Meeting of 04/22/02 (33 City including 115 between the railroad and Route 11. He feels this will really add a lot of traffic south ofthis area which the applicant really cannot do much about. He feels this is another blank check for industrial jobs. He feels this will be a big tax deficit that will hit him in the pocketbook. He stated that the Sanitation Authority claims they have plenty of water, he thinks they do 99 Y, % of the time, it's the half percent of the time that we have a drought that they don't have water. He doesn't like the thoughts of the Sanitation Authority digging wells near quarries. Supervisor Tyler moved to approve Rezoning #07-01 of Rutherford's Farm Industrial Park. Supervisor Smith seconded the motion. Supervisor Tyler stated that some questions had been raised about an opportunity to do some things differently. She feels the applicant needs to be commended for doing things somewhat differently with this application. She feels they have raised the bar significantly for developers to follow. It is somewhat unprecedented that they are willing to spend this amount of money for road improvements to try and minimize what is going to happen. She would also include the B&P and the recycling efforts that they are also going to be doing. She would like to make a suggestion for further development, until we can get our act together as a county and clean up our standard industrial codes. She feels we should be able to proffer out, or ask for more proffering out of what is allowed in our county as opposed to what isjust cart blanche for M-I. She certainly hopes the rail is going to be utilized. Chairman Shickle inquired of Mr. Smith what has been, or is planned to be, the activities between the developers and the neighbors. Mark Smith replied not that he is aware of with the neighbors. The back portion is M-2. Chairman Shickle advised he was speaking mainly to the people along Route 11. Mr. Smith advised the plan was to utilize the mounding ofthe berm and the trees to help with the deadening of the sound in this area. Chairman Shickle asked Mr. Smith when he is working with the soon to be owners of the property, ifhe has a vision or desire of what type of industrial park this will be. Mr. Smith advised with the front part ofthe land they are hoping for maybe a hotel site, some type of convenience that would go along with the hotel site. The B-3 was put in to capture what is not between our ordinance of B-2 and M-1. This area is more dressed up. The M-l, the rail is the big attraction here. No contract has been signed. Minute Book Number 27 Board of Supervisors Meeting of 04/22/02 734 Supervisor Reyes advised his remark is directed to the applicant. He is impressed with the proffers that have been proffered in this particular incidence; however, he would like to be able to ask for more, but he knows that is not negotiable. The above motion was approved by the following recorded vote: Richard C. Shickle - Aye W. Harrington Smith, Jr. - Aye Robert M. Sager - Aye Margaret B. Douglas - Aye Sidney A. Reyes - Aye Lynda 1. Tyler - Aye Gina A. Forrester - Aye OTHER PLANNING ITEMS REOUEST FOR WAIVER TO INCREASE STEEP SLOPE DISTURBANCE IN THE EASTGATE COMMERCE CENTER - APPROVED Planning Director Evan Wyatt presented this request to the Board advising that the Planning Commission recommended approval, with the requirement that a survey description for the "preservation area" be submitted to ensure that subsequent development plans do not encroach into this area. Mr. Chuck Maddox of G. W. Clifford and Associates appeared before the Board on behalf of this request. Supervisor Sager asked if the Board had control over what is developed at this location. Mr. Maddox replied yes. Supervisor Smith asked if soil would be taken from Wright's Run. Mr. Maddox advised the site would be made more attractive to a client, and this would be done once an applicant shows interest in the site. Upon motion made by Supervisor Smith, seconded by Supervisor Sager, the request for waiver to increase steep slope disturbance in the Eastgate Commerce Center was approved by the following recorded vote: Richard C.

Most ofthe workers were women and it concerns him that these people will not have a job. He asked local businesses to consider employing these workers. Administrator Riley advised the Board that this is Planning Director Wyatt's last meeting, as a county employee.
