Upon a motion by Supervisor Fisher, seconded by Supervisor Lofton, the Board approved the consent agenda by the following recorded vote: Richard C. Shickle Aye Charles S. DeHaven, Jr. Aye Christopher E. Collins Aye Gene E. Fisher Aye Robert A. Hess Aye Gary A. Lofton Aye Robert W. Wells Absent CITIZEN COMMENTS Dr. Carol Delaeruz, homeowner in the Shenandoah Community and Opequon District, appeared before the Board regarding private streets in the R -5 District and read the following statement: "Mr. Chairman, Supervisors, my name is Dr. Carol Delacruz, a homeowner of Shenandoah at Lake Frederick I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge the fellow residents Isee here tonight. Shenandoah residents, please raise your hands. • All of us — those here tonight, and those not here, bought homes in a community planned for approximately 2,100 residences, with gated private streets. • The plan for gated, private streets was an important part of our personal buying decision. • Beginning in 2012, 1 was a member of the group of nine homeowners on a Redevelopment Study Group working with Lansdowne prior to their purchase of the Lake Frederickproperty. Although we differed on some details of the new development plan, we and Lansdowne were in agreement on two key points: 2 1. In order to fulfill the promise of a 2,100 home community, the developer needed to address in parallel both the age - restricted and non -age restricted homebuyer markets: 2. Given the geography of the development and existing developed portion, it was imperative that we have gated, private streets throughout the entire development to provide the security existing homeowners expected, as well as a sense of cohesiveness and community among the age - restricted residents. We presently have two age restricted sections with private streets, one is gated, the other, not as yet. As new age - restricted homes are built, and as non age - restricted homes are added, it is our hope and desire that our community will be one of inclusion not exclusion to maintain that sense of community, particularly within the age - restricted section. Imagine the impact on this sense of community, and on community governance, in a situation where roughly half of the age - restricted community has gated access and private streets and the other half has not gated access and a mix ofprivate and public streets. Such a condition would create disjunction within our community, not to mention the challenges it would present for HOA governance. The original developer was granted the requisite ordinance for private streets throughout our community of 2100 homes. The only change in our community is that it will now be comprised of both age - restricted and non age - restricted residents. The roads will be the same. In my opinion, resident age should not influence or be a determiningfactor as to whether we are permitted to continue with private roads throughout our development. • Lansdowne is asking _. on our behalf— that they be able to develop the mixed community of 2,100 residences with the gated, private streets that we all expected. • That is important to us, the current residents, and it is very important to all residents, current and future. • `We ask the Board of Supervisors to bring this matter to conclusion by: • Scheduling public hearings on the private road request before the county; • Approving the requested ordinance change to allow for the application to install private streets in R5 communities; and • Approving Lansdowne's application to install private streets throughout the Lake Frederick community. Thank you. " Kevin Walek, Opequon District, appeared before the Board and read the following: "Comments for Kevin Walek. • Mr. Chairman; Supervisors; all. I would like to thank you for providing us with this opportunity to come before you and speak this evening regarding the issue of Private streets for the Lake Frederick Community. • My name is Kevin Walek. I am a retired attorney, having spent the last 28 years in the financial, regulatory world. Along with my wife, Margaret, a retired accounting manager, we are residents of Lake Frederick in the Opequon District. • My wife and I welcome and embrace the diversity that a mixed age - restricted and non age - restricted community will bring. And, as has been underscored by many urban sociologists as early as Jane Jacobs, and Edward Banfield, in the long run, we believe it will enrich our lives and those of others in our community. • We also support the developer's desire to build out such a mixed community with gated access and private streets. As Dr. Delacruz previously indicated, we believe an integrated private street development will provide benefits to all homeowners; will eliminate complexities and avoid challenges in the governance and day -to -day management of the HOA. In a broader demographic and economic perspective, we read with interest John Martin's reported comments at the recent spring dinner of the Northern Shenandoah Valley Regional Commission. In brief, Mr. Martin's key points were: • Aging baby boomers will fuel the area's economy in the short term but younger "life-style" seekers will become an increasing percentage of the area's population over the next two or three decades; • Boomers are re- defining what it's like to grow old; looking at the promise of aging, NOT the problems of aging, • Younger life -style seekers are looking for place first, career and job second They want a sense ofplace and community, carefree living and s ustain ability. That, I submit, is exactly the two classes of homebuyers our mixed community has been designed to address. And given these broad demographic trends, I submit that the Lake Frederick development may well be, if not should be, the model for future planned communities in Frederick County and the Northern Shenandoah. Finally, allowing private streets for such a community will align both costs and benefits with the residents of the community. In an age where less and less transportation funding will be coming from the State, such an alignment is surely a more viable option than relying on the County's general taxpayers to fund the maintenance and repairs of ublic streets. We respectfully request the Board of Supervisors to bring this matter to a conclusion by: • Scheduling public hearings on the private road request before the county; • Approving the requested ordinance change to allowfor the application to install private streets in RS communities; and • Approving Lansdowne's application to install private streets throughout the Lake Frederick community. Thank you." Dr. Richard Setton, Opequon District and resident of Lake Frederick, read the following: " I'm Dr. Richard Setton and I'm a resident of Lake Frederick in the Opequon District. About 35 years ago, I was the clinical director of the Woodstock office of the Northwestern Community Services Board which was, at the time, based in Winchester. Iknew back then that this was the region in which I wanted to live, and I've been fortunate to be part of this area for the last 7 years. I'm also now serving on the Board of Directors of Habitat far Humanity, Winchester - Frederick County, and I'm chairman of their Family Services Committee. • We all have slightly different reasons for why we moved here, and like any diverse group, 4 we don't all agree on very many community topics. However, on the issue of having private streets, there is a clear -- better than 90% -- consensus. • Let me provide a somewhat broader historical and factual perspective on our request for private streets. • For starters, we know that the county approved the private streets and gated access for about 2100 homes at Lake Frederick as early as the MDP for the property in 2001. • The only change, and all that Lansdowne is requesting, is the ability to submit an application to the county to provide private streets for both restricted and non - restricted homes at Lake Frederick. If effect, at the highest level, not much else has changed in the plan since the early MDP. • It will: a) still consist of some 2100 homes, b) the total paved street areas will be about the same, c) amenities will be approximately the same, and in some ways, even better. • Importantly, the HOA and the residents are no strangers to the challenges and benefits of private streets. We currently have about 4.8 miles ofprivate streets, all built to VDOT base standards. For several years, our HOA, in the absence of a fiscally viable developer, funded and managed snow removal for those streets, We have a solid grasp on the reserve requirements necessary for these streets, both from cost and reserve studies performed in 2011 (and updated in 2013) and from the considerable prior life experience and knowledge that our residents bring with them. • Finally, let's not lose sight of the fact that almost 213rds of the streets upon completion will be private anyway, considering both the age - restricted sections and townhouse areas of the non - restricted portions. Our request, when approved, will simply enable the other 113 pd of the streets to be integrated into a consistent framework for HOA governance. • Therefore, representing the overwhelming majority of the residents at Lake Frederick, we urge the speedy approval of the developer's request. In that way, re- development can proceed expeditiously, and we, the residents as well as the county, can all benefitfrom this exceptional community and equally exceptional county in which we live. " Larry Atkinson, Opequon District, appeared before the Board regarding the private roads information. He advised the issue tonight was not solely a Shenandoah issue, but a countywide issue. He went on to say tonight's focus should be about the county code change to permit private streets in all R -5 communities. He stated the residents bought expecting an age- restricted community. He asked if the board would vote tonight to allow the public hearing. He went on to ask if all developers have the opportunity to address these changes. He believed these proposed changes were adequate. He asked the Board to focus tonight on the code change and not the Lansdowne request. He concluded by urging the Board to hold the public hearing.

In addition, the committee reviewed the proposed project budget which included, not only, the low bid amount but also, costs related to engineering support services, water /sewer hookup fees, communication services and a five (5) percent contingency. The bids were received on May 15, 2014 in response to Frederick County's invitation for bid and subsequent pre - requisite pre -bid meeting held on April 29, 2014. The attached bid summary highlights the seven (7) bids received on this date with the low bid of $6,199,898 submitted by Caldwell and Santmyer, Inc.

Agreements are currently being drafted to determine the actual distribution percentages. The fire station and event center will be the responsibility of Frederick County and the Round Hill Fire and Rescue Company, respectively.

Wells Absent AN ORDINANCE TO ADOPT CHAPTER 143 OF THE FREDERICK COUNTY CODE STORMWATER/EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL AND TO REPEAL CHAPTER 79 OF THE FREDERICK COUNTY CODE EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL, BOTH EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2014. - APPROVED Deputy Director of Public Works Joe Wilder appeared before the Board regarding this item. He advised there have been no changes since the May 20, 2014 draft sent to the board. He stated this is a proposed new Chapter 143 of the Frederick County Code for the new stormwater ordinance. He noted this ordinance had gone through a lot of changes since staff began working on this ordinance. He went on to say the state required localities to have this type of program. He stated the department would use existing staff to administer these new regulations. He noted there was a need to educate the development community regarding these proposed changes. The ordinance has been approved by the Department of Environmental Quality. Once the Board approves the ordinance then the Department of Environmental Quality would authorize Frederick County to operate the program. Chairman Shickle stated that he saw the fees were included in the ordinance, but he thought past practice was to remove them from the actual ordinance so the code would not have to be changed if fees changed. Deputy Director Wilder noted the proposed fees were set for a period of five years. Vice - Chairman DeHaven asked if the ordinance could make reference to the state fee schedule instead of having the fees included in the ordinance. County Attorney Williams responded that change could be made. Deputy Director Wilder agreed with the suggested change. Chairman Shickle convened the public hearing. There were no public comments. 20 Chairman Shickle closed the public hearing. Upon a motion by Supervisor Fisher, seconded by Supervisor DeHaven, the Board approved the ordinance adopting Chapter 143 and repealing Chapter 79 with the fees to be incorporated by reference. § 143 -100 Purpose The Frederick County Board of Supervisors desires to protect the health, safety, welfare, and property of Frederick County residents and businesses, and the quality of waters within the County. The Frederick County Board of Supervisors recognizes that development tends to degrade these waters through erosion and sedimentation, increased flooding, stream channel erosion, and the transport and deposition of waterborne pollutants. This degradation is due, in part, to increased stormwater runoff as property is developed. Hence, as required by § 62.1- 44.15:27 Code of Virginia and in compliance with the Virginia State Water Control Board requirements, the Frederick County Board of Supervisors has determined that it is in the public interest to establish requirements which regulate the discharge of stormwater runoff from developments by integrating hydrologic and water quality functions into all aspects of a development's design, landscape and infrastructure. A. The purpose of this ordinance is to establish minimum stormwater management and erosion and sediment control requirements which: 1. Reduce flood damage to property; minimize the impacts of increased stormwater runoff from new land development; 2. Maintain the hydraulic adequacy of existing and proposed culverts, bridges, dams, and other structures; 3. Prevent, to the greatest extent feasible, an increase in nonpoint source pollution; 4. Maintain the integrity of stream channels for their biological functions and drainage; 5. Maintain natural drainage patterns to the extent practicable in order to promote existing hydrologic processes; 6. Promote infiltration of stormwater to recharge groundwater resources; 7. Minimize the impact of development upon stream erosion; S. Preserve and protect water supply facilities from increased flood discharges, stream erosion, and nonpoint source pollution; 9. Establish provisions for long -term responsibility for and maintenance of stormwater management control devices and techniques to manage the quality and quantity of stormwater runoff; and 10. Provide effective control of soil erosion and sediment deposition and to prevent the unreasonable degradation of properties, stream channels, waters and other natural resources. B. This chapter supplements and is to be applied in conjunction with Frederick County building code, subdivision, and zoning ordinances as they apply to the development or subdivision of land within the county. 21 § 143 -105 Authority A.

He advised that staff was seeking Board direction regarding this item. Chairman Shickle advised that he had been approached by another landowner about being included in the proposed study area. He supported the original request, but would like to have time to explore the property owner's request to be included. Supervisor Lofton stated this was an excellent opportunity to make some good decision and he would like to see the request considered, Upon a motion by Supervisor Lofton, seconded by Supervisor Hess, the board postponed this item until the June 25, 2014 meeting. Supervisor Fisher stated there were more details he would like to have from the Frederick County Sanitation Authority regarding this request. Supervisor Lofton stated he hoped the owner knows what the Board is trying to accomplish. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering, appeared before the Board on behalf of the applicant. He understood the proposal would be coming back up with the possibility of other parcels being included.

Fisher Aye Robert A. Hess Aye Gary A. Lofton Aye 70 Robert W. Wells Absent DISCUSSION — PRIVATE STREETS IN THE R5 ZONING DISTRICT. — SENT FORWARD FOR PUBLIC HEARING AT THE JULY 9 2014 MEETING. Senior Planner Candice Perkins appeared before the Board regarding this item. She advised that staff received a second request to allow private streets in the R -5 zoning district. Currently, private streets are only permitted in the R -5 District within age - restricted communities. She noted the Board considered this item in late 2012 and early 2013, but did not send this proposal forward for public hearing. This second request has been reviewed by the Transportation Committee for consideration. No recommendation was returned to the Board. The Development Review and Regulations Committee and Planning Commission expressed concern over permitting private streets within the R -5 district. She concluded by saying staff was seeking direction from the Board regarding this item. Supervisor Hess asked about the 1,000 lot threshold. Senior Planner Perkins responded this addition was offered by the applicant. She went on to say that new R -5 developments would have to be 1,000 lots in order to utilize this provision. Supervisor Lofton stated the ordinance talks about public streets and notes a right -of -way of 20 feet. He wondered how wide the streets would be, He went on to say age - restricted private streets do not seem to have the same impacts as non -age restricted. Supervisor DeHaven felt this went to marketability of the development. Supervisor Hess stated there were a number of old subdivisions with private streets. He went on to say this created a nightmare for those developments because the deed of dedication often does not give the homeowners' association the power to levy assessments for the roads. He concluded by saying if that was allowed he did not see it as a problem. 71 Chairman Shickle stated this issue was a challenge "we" inherited. He went on to say at the end of the day it depends on whether or not the developer stays in it for the long haul. He noted this particular developer's track record appeared to be good, but there were no guarantees. Supervisor Collins stated the proposed ordinance continues to bother him and he does not like it. He noted age - restricted communities have limited traffic and that is why he was concerned if this provision was opened to every R -5 development. He concluded by saying the Board needs to be concerned about future developments. Supervisor Lofton stated there were a lot of things the Sheriff cannot enforce if a development's streets are private. He noted this was something that would need to be addressed. Supervisor Fisher stated this had been a peculiar development issue. He went on to say if the roads were constructed correctly they could last a long time. He concluded by saying he supported sending it to public hearing. Upon a motion by Supervisor Fisher, seconded by Supervisor Collins, the Board sent this amendment forward for public hearing at the July 9, 2014 meeting. WHEREAS, the Frederick County Planning Department has been directed to prepare changes to Chapter 165 Zoning, to allow the use of private streets for all types of developments in the R5 (Residential Recreational Community) District with a waiver. WHEREAS, the Development Review and Regulations Committee (DRRC) discussed the proposed changes at their regularly scheduled meeting on March 27, 2014; and WHEREAS, the Transportation Committee discussed the proposed changes at their meetings on February 24, 2014 and April 28, 2014; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission discussed the proposed changes at their regularly scheduled meeting on May 7, 2014; and WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors discussed the proposed changes at their regularly scheduled meeting on May 28, 2014; and WHEREAS, the Frederick County Board of Supervisors finds that in the public necessity, convenience, general welfare, and good zoning practice, directs the Frederick County 72 Planning Commission hold a public hearing regarding an amendment to Chapter 165 to allow the use of private streets for all types of developments in the R5 (Residential Recreational Community) District with a waiver.

Wells Absent DISCUSSION — SETBACK REQUIREMENTS FOR MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS. — SENT FORWARD FOR PUBLI C HEARING Senior Planner Candice Perkins appeared before the Board regarding this item. She advised this was a proposed revision to the front setback for multifamily residential buildings. She noted this was a new housing type added in 2013. The text of the ordinance currently requires a 35 foot setback. The Development Review and Regulations Committee recommended a reduction to 20 feet. The Planning Commission discussed this item and it is being brought to the Board as staff is seeking direction. Supervisor Collis asked if this was part of allowing town centers in Frederick County. Senior Planner Perkins responded no. This is for high density residential developments with no commercial component. Supervisor Collins asked if it could apply to a town center development. Senior Planner Perkins responded, if approved, the reduced setback would apply. Vice - Chairman DeHaven stated he was okay with the reduction to 20 feet to allow for 73 parking in the rear. He believed the market would decide if this reduced setback was appropriate. Supervisor Hess agreed with Vice - Chairman DeHaven's comments. Upon a motion by Vice - Chairman DeHaven, seconded by Supervisor Hess, the Board sent the proposed ordinance amendment forward for public hearing. WHEREAS, the Frederick County Planning Department has received a request to reduce the front setback for Multifamily Residential Buildings from 35 feet to 20 feet; and WHEREAS, the Development Review and Regulations Committee (DRRC) reviewed the change at their March 2014 meeting and recommended that the front setback for Multifamily Residential Buildings be reduced from 35 feet to 20 feet and forwarded that recommendation to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission discussed the proposed changes at their regularly scheduled meeting on May 7, 2014 and agreed with the proposed changes; and WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors discussed the proposed changes at their regularly scheduled meeting on May 28, 2014; and WHEREAS, the Frederick County Board of Supervisors finds that in the public necessity, convenience, general welfare, and good zoning practice, directs the Frederick County Planning Commission hold a public hearing regarding an amendment to Chapter 165.

Lofton Aye Robert W. Wells Absent BOARD LIAISON REPORTS There were no Board liaison reports. 74 CITIZEN COMMENTS Ken Hunter, Back Creek District, read the following letter: I. Who owns Shawnee land? 2. Why is it apolitical subdivision? 3. Deed dated 3 May 1995 shows Frederick County is owner. 4. 335 lots were conveyed to Frederick County on 17 Jan 1995? Why and for what purpose Jan 17 letter enclosed? 5. Where are the more than two file cabinets full of Shawnee land historical documents left in the safe keeping of the county At 50 tomahawk trail? 6 Moratorium on all building within Shawnee land until a study is done according to Federal standards on the population density and septic issues? 7. 7 county employees that work here part time but are supposed to be here full time. Why does Shawnee land have the 1.5 million dollar burden justfor employee's wages and benefit package? What are there hours of operation? You as a board say you are stewards of the taxpayer's dollar. I would like to see Shawnee land have a real manager and not what it presently there a friend or relative of someone working for Frederick County I strongly suspect? It shows in the non engineering or lack of anything that is done. I can give many examples if you want me to. All services need to be contracted out such as snow, grass mowing and maintenance. If the county would give me]. 5 million dollar a year I would fix everything in Shawnee land plus mow the lawns and shovel property owner's snow in the winter. 5. The county Web site for Shawnee land should have photo's and past work history Bios' about each employee? And planned improvements. 9. 1 would like to see a vote tonight on the four individuals who drive tax payers' vehicles 2417 on the taxpayers all diesel vehicles? Mr. Reilly states the four are given vehicles because of the nature and recall of their job to the county and the residents. I would like to know the recall procedure because everyone I have asked doesn't know the recall procedure for any employees? What is the recall procedure for these folks? What constitutes an emergency in the eyes of the BOS that should warrant a vehicle 2417 on the taxpayers'? Here at Shawnee land we have had murders, deaths, and the dam overflowed, snow, ice, and yet no manager was ever called to Shawnee land? The cost of letting employees use four vehicles is over $200,000 burden on taxpayers not including fuel and maintenance costs. 10. Why doesn't the Shawnee land manager answer his e -mail to concerned residents of issues there at Shawnee land? He refuses to answer any e -mails or give his work cell number out to anyone up here? Why does he have a cell phone and internet capabilities on the taxpayers ifhe refuses to answer me and other folks? 11. Why does county employees have e -mail when they don't respond to questions about Frederick county especially when it's with in there area of expertise? Example the individual that is responsible for the audit? Why does she have an e-mail account just wondering? 12. Request address of all county vehicle fueling sites?

Mr. Wait Wharram, Onsite Claims Manager Mark Kinder, Maintenance Supervisor 4/18/2014 Damaged AHU Coils c,EF On January 08, 2014, we noticed that we had difficulty maintaining temperatures in the Main Jail in the morning hours. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the loop water coils in Air Handling Unit (AHU) 3 (Booking area) and AHU 1 (Administrative area) were frozen and had busted in multiple end loops. We closed off six (6) coils in AHU3 and four (4 )in AHU1. This stopped the leaking and allowed us to restore heated loop water to the remainder of the jail. We found that the Freeze Stat alarm was tripped in the new Tracer SC system forthese units, but commanded no shut down action of the supply air fan. The previous Tracer Summit system Freeze Stat alarm prompted the supply air fan to shut down, with only a manual restart. We informed the Boland's Trane programmer of our issues and on his next visit, he programmed a shut down command in the new Tracer SC controller to prevent less than freezing air to pass through all our Main Jail AHUs. On January 13, 2014, outside air temperatures warmed and we had to turn on the cooling chillers, which showed a leak in AHU 11 cooling coil. We had to turn off the coil valves, but not before the leak over spilled into the POD 2 Visitation area. This was a cooling only AHU. This caused us have to replace over twenty (20) ceiling tiles due to the leak. When I explained to the Bolands programmer that the supply fans didn't shut down, even though the Freeze Stat alarm was in alert, he told me that no command was requested to be programmed into the new controller, The project manager acknowledged that it was an oversight on Trane's part not to include the shut down command with a Freeze Alert alarm, due to fact they didn't look deep enough into the old programming. 11 nr, ^c Bolands Trane started the control upgrade the week of November 5, 2013 with the intent to improve our ability to control our HVAC systems in the Main .fail. We were advised that the new system would provide the same controls as the older controls being replaced, but would include enhancements to provide WEB Based Access. After discussion of the damages, Bolands Trane submitted a quote for $59,990 to repair the coils that were damaged. 12 COUNTY of FREDERICK Department of Public Works 5401665 -5643 FAX. 5401678 -0682 MEMORANDUM TO: Cheryl Shiffler, Finance Director FROM: Steve Frye, Landfill Manager' THROUGH: Ed Strawsnyder, Director of Public Wo SUBJECT: Supplemental Appropriation DATE: June 06, 2014 Due to an oversight in the FY2014/2015 budget proposal, we are requesting a Supplemental Appropriation in the amount of $85,000.00 to the following line items: 12 -4204- 1001 -068, Laborer II, with a base salary of $22,165 12- 4204 - 1001 -095, Landfill Technician II, with a base salary of $31,401 These total $53,566.

Riley, Jr. County Administrator 5401665 -5666 Fax 540/667 -0370 E -mail: jriley@co.fredcrick.va.us. On November 13, 2013 the Board of Supervisors approved a resolution of support for Fiscal Year 2015 in the amount of $4,033,350.00 for the above referenced project. I was advised yesterday that due to a misunderstanding regarding VDOT charges on the above referenced project application, the revenue sharing resolution approved by the Board of Supervisors stated an incorrect dollar amount. The approved resolution should have stated $4,068,350.00, which is $35,000 more than originally approved. For your reference, I have attached copies of the original application and resolution are attached. I was advised on Monday, June 16, 2014 of the need to amend the Board's action in order to reflect the correct amount of $4,068,350.00. In order to correct this error, a letter is being sent to VDOT .certifying that the corrected amount of $4,068,350.00 is needed for this project and a revised resolution will be presented for the Board of Supervisors' consideration at their meeting on June 25, 2014. VDOT staff indicates this will adequately address the issue and the revenue sharing application remains on track for approval.

Riley, Jr., County Admini r SUBJECT: New Round Hill Fire and Rescue Station and Event Center DATE: June 11, 2014 Staff and representatives from RaymondJames Public Finance will be present to discuss the proposed construction of the new Round Hill Fire and Rescue Station and Event Center. This item was initially discussed at the committee's February meeting. At that time, staff updated the committee on the project, proposed costs, and obtaining financing through the Virginia Resources Authority. At the conclusion of that meeting, the committee recommended and the Board approved the submittal of a site plan for this project to the Department of Planning and Development for approval. Since that time, the project was put out for bid. Bids were received on May 15, 2014 with Caldwell Santmyer, Inc. submitting the low bid of $6,199,898. The Public Works Committee reviewed the bids and included additional costs for communications and furniture and fixtures. The recommended project budget was $6,904,000. Public Works staff has worked with the bidder and developer to finalize costs and scope of work. A detailed cost estimate for bond financing was prepared and is attached for your information. The total project cost is $7,217,104; however, with reimbursements and deductions, the County's required bond amount for this project would be $3,869,693.00. This amount is for the construction of the fire station and associated site work only and reflects a reduction in the project cost via the developer's proffer contribution, developer's costs for road construction, and the Round Hill Fire Company's costs for the event center. For the committee's reference, you will find attached: 1) A copy of the detailed site plan with the County's, developer's, and fire company's 107 North Kent Street • &chester, Virginia 22601 responsibilities delineated. 2) Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Construction, Ownership, Use, Operations, and Maintenance of the Replacement Round Hill Fire and Rescue Station between the County of Frederick, Virginia, and Round Hill Community Fire and Rescue Company. 3) Proposed Ground Lease between Frederick County and the Round Hill Fire Company for the event center site. 4) Agreement between Frederick County and Round Hill Fire Company regarding construction cost allocation, County responsibilities, and fire company responsibilities. 5) Estimated debt service schedule of project financing options. The Board of Supervisors has authorized a public hearing on a budget amendment for the project costs. It is staff's intent to seek financing through the Virginia Resources Authority. In speaking with bond counsel and our financial advisor, there are two options that could be pursued relative to this project. The two options to be considered are: 1) Submit an application for the County's share of this project in the amount of $3,$69,693.00 for the fire station component and associated site work; or 2) Submit an application to fund both the fire station and event center in the amount of $5,600,541. (All agreements regarding reimbursements, payment schedules, etc. between the County and the fire company would remain in effect.) Staff is seeking the following recommendations from the Finance Committee: 1) Recommendation regarding the request for a Capital Project Fund Supplemental Appropriation. 2) Recommendation regarding the authorization pursue the VRA financing and a preferred financing option.

The interest rates are as of May 15, 2014, the last VRA sale date results. The VRA is to update our rates next Tuesday so we will have that for our meeting on Wednesday morning but we need to provide the VRA the basis financing costs. 2. We have assumed that all of the funds would be drawn at closing and no interest income would be earned. once we have a better idea of your construction draws we can "fine tune" this number. However, with current reinvestment rates so low this project will not generate a significant amount of interest earnings on unexpended project funds; 3. We have assumed that the County has received the $1,000,000 proffer and will use these funds totally for its share of the Project. In addition, we have assumed the County is comfortable that the developer will be able to reimburse the county for its cost without impacting the Project funds so not interim financing is needed for this cost. again all of these costs are to benefit the county; 4. We have assumed the first interest payment from the county and the Volunteers will be October 1, 2014 and then every six month. the first principal payment will be due October 1, 2016 or about one year after construction is completed. Principal will be due annually and will be amortized over a 20 year period from the date of the first principal payment on October 1, 2016.; and 5. All cost of issuance were taken from the last VRA issuance worksheet which will change when they provide us new numbers. in addition to the VRA costs we have included $60,000 for local costs for bond counsel and Financial Advisory costs. •1 )INGS /COURTHOUSE JANITORIAL SUPPLIES FOR CAB 4304 54051 000 005 (2,200.00) )INGS /COURTHOUSE 4304 5405 000 000 2,200.00 OLOGY WIRELESS AND PHONE EQUIPMENT 1220 3005 000 000 (20,000.00) OLOGY 1220 5413 000 003 20,000.00 SALARY ADJUSTMENTS 5/14 3505 1001 000 060 300.00 3505 1007 000 001 (300.00) 3505 1001 000 064 11,053.00 3505 1007 000 001 (11,053.00) ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE ON VEHICLES 3401 5204 000 000 (1,000.00) 3401 30041 000 0021 1,000.00 SUPPLEMENT LINE ITEM FOR REMAINDER OF FY14 4305 5402 000 001 (500.00) 4305 5402 000 003 500.00 ATTORNEY REQUEST OF TRANSFER TO BALANCE 2201 5409 000 000 (180.90) ATTORNEY 2201 5408 000 001 180.90 ATTORNEY 22015409 000 002 (35.82) ATTORNEY 2201 3004 000 000 35.82 ATTORNEY 2201 3007 000 000 (500.00) ATTORNEY 22015506 000 000 500.00 ATTORNEY 2201 54101 000 000 (300.00) ATTORNEY 22015506 000 000 300.00 ATTORNEY 2201 5204 000 000 (880.00) ATTORNEY 22015506 000 000 880.00 FUNDS TO ORDER NEW CODE BOOKS 3401 4003 000 002 (2,600.00) 3401 5411 000 000 2,600.00 )INGS /COURTHOUSE DIAGNOSTIC SCREEN /CHILLER 4304 5101 000 006 (686.00) )INGS /COURTHOUSE 4304 3004 000 007 686.00 GRAVEL FOR PARKING LOTS 7109 3004 000 003 1,121.54 7110 3004 000 003 (1,121.54) SUPPLEMENT LINE FOR FY14 4305 3004 000 003 (800.00) 4305 5407 000 000 800.00 IUNICATION LAPTOPS AND OTHER ITEMS 3506 5204 000 000 (5,000.00) I U N I CATI O N 3506 5413 000 000 5,000.00 ID OFFICIALS PAY FOR NEW PRECINCT SIGN 1301 5204 000 000 (2,400.00) ID OFFICIALS 1301 5401 000 000 2,400.00 UNPLANNED TRAVEL /TAX MEETING 1202 3002 000 000 (137.04) 1202 5506 000 000 137.04 iE REVENUE NEW PRINTER AS400 COMPATIBLE 1209 5506 000 000 (3,000.00) iE REVENUE 1209 5401 000 000 3,000.00 iE REVENUE OFFICE SUPPLIES -MISC. 1209 3006 000 000 (523.00) iE REVENUE 1209 5401 000 000 523.00 iE REVENUE 1209 3010 000 000 (517.72) iE REVENUE 1209 5401 000 000 517.72 iE REVENUE OFFICE TONER & CHAIRS 1209 3004 000 002 (3,077.50) i E REVENUE 1209 5401 000 000 3,077.50 iE REVENUE VARIOUS OFFICE CHAIRS AND MATERIALS 1209 5401 000 000 10,000.00 D OF ASSESSORS 1210 5204 000 000 (10,000.00) D OF ASSESSORS VEHICLE MAINTENANCE &INSPECTION 1210 3006 000 000 (2,210.00) D OF ASSESSORS 1210 3004 000 0021 2,210.00 3ATION COST OF DESK, CHAIRS, & CLOCKS 3303 8002 000 000 (2,500.00) 3ATION 3303 5401 000 000 2,500.00 OLOGY GIS TRAINING REQUEST 1220 3005 000 000 (1,680.00) OLOGY 1 1220 5506 000 002 1,680.00 iE REVENUE TELEPHONE AND POSTAL COST 1 1209 5801 0001 000 (1,200.00) DN ADMINISTRATION COST OF BACKGROUND CHECKS 7101 3002 000 000 (591.75) DN ADMINISTRATION 7101 5415 000 000 591.75 COST OF REPAIRS TO EQUIPMENT 3102 3004 000 002 (1,000.00) 3102 3004 000 001 1,000.00 ELECTRICAL REAPAIRS AT CLEARBROOK 7109 5101 000 000 (577.40) 7109 3010 000 000 577.40 FUNDS NEEDED FOR TRAVEL 8301 5204 000 000 (192.50) 83015506 000 000 192.50 8301 5401 000 000 (114.41) 83015506 000 000 114.41 RENTAL CAR EXPENSES - SURVEILLANCE 3102 5413 000 008 (1,000.00) 3102 3010 000 000 1,000.00 DN ADMINISTRATION SOCIAL SERVICE BACKGROUND CHECK 7101 3002 000 000 (351.00) DN ADMINISTRATION 7101 5415 000 000 351.00 TO COVER COST OF LANDFILL DUMPING FEES 7109 5101 000 000 (7.32) 7109 3004 000 003 7.32 TO COVER COST OF SAFETY BOOTS 7103 5414 000 000 (886.35) 7109 5414 000 000 886.35 AND PLAYGROUNDS TO COVER COST OF UNIFORMS 7104 5412 000 000 (1,158.11) AND PLAYGROUNDS 7104 5410 000 000 1,158.11 TO COVER CURRENT EXPENDITURES 3102 8005 000 000 (1,078.40) 3102 5408 000 000 1,078.40 TO COVER PURCHASES IN CURRENT YEAR 3102 3004 000 002 (2,700.00) 3102 5408 000 000 2,700.00 WATER SAFETY & CPR CERTIFICATION 7103 5414 000 000 (714.03) 7103 5506 000 000 714.03 OLOGY EDC PHONE SYSTEM EQUIPMENT 1220 3005 000 000 (8,915.80) OLOGY 1 1220 8007 000 003 8,915.80 General Fund May 31, 2014 ASSETS FY14 FY13 Increase Formance Bonds Payable 5/31/14 5/31/13 (Decrease) h and Cash Equivalents 67,097,374.18 61,872,260.58 5,225,113.60 *A :y Cash 1,555.00 1,555.00 0.00 eivables: 70,715,061.20 67,896,522.46 2,818,538.74 xes, Commonwealth,Reimb.P /P 69,153,776.76 65,595,017.33 3,558,759.43 , eetlights 21,054.98 19,882.32 1,172.66 nmonwealth,Federal,45 day Taxes 12,103.59 48,015.68 (35,912.09) from Fred.

SUBJECT: Development Impact Model — Oversight Committee Report from Meeting on June 5, 2014 DATE: June 16, 2014 The Development Impact Model — Oversight Committee (DIM -OC) met on Thursday, June 5, 2014 at 8:30 AM. Members Present J.P. Carr Robert Hess Dr. John Lamanna Gary Lofton H. Paige Manual Stephen Pettler Roger Thomas Kris Tierney Members Absent Brian Madigan Patrick Barker, Eric Lawrence, Wayne Lee, and Al Orndorff were present. ** *Item Requiring Action * ** The DIM -OC reviewed the critical inputs for the Annual Update of the Development Impact Model (DIM). The inputs are essential in order to maintain an updated DIM. It is important to note that the DIM is a planning tool which projects anticipated operational and capital facility costs associated with land use planning, although the DIM is also 107 North Kent Street • Winchester, Virginia 22601 -5000 Page 2 DIM -OC Report June 16, 2014 commonly referenced as the model utilized to project the capital facility costs associated with development and rezoning proposals. Upon approval of the DIM -OC's recommendation, staff will use the updated model in the consideration of land use planning analysis and for future rezoning petitions. The critical input spreadsheet (Attachment #1) and resulting projected capital facilities costs (Attachment #2) are attached for your information. Upon utilizing the critical input updated figures, the DIM projects the following impacts on the County's capital facilities: NEW FY15 FY14 Single Family Dwelling Unit = $ 19,583 $ 19,600 Town Home Dwelling Unit = $ 13,437 $ 13,062 Apartment Dwelling Unit = $ 12,697 $ 11,339 By majority vote, the DIM -OC recommends the use of the critical inputs, and for their incorporation into model. * ** Informational Purposes Only * ** The DIM -OC reviewed the past years' extensive effort to evaluate the Development Impact Model, and the policies currently in effect for how the DIM is utilized during the rezoning application process. This evaluation was at the recommendation of the Board's Business Friendly Committee. It was noted that the DIM projects that a single family home will generate $133,511 in demands for county services over 20 years, yet the same home would contribute less than $74,000 directly to the county in terms of tax contributions from real estate and personal property. The DIM -OC discussed how the DIM was used during the rezoning process and recognized that during rezoning considerations the DIM solely considers capital costs, and not revenue contributions. The DIM -OC evaluated potential policy amendments to enable revenue credits to be included during the rezoning process. The revenue credits considered were associated with residential and commercial development when a development proposal had a mix of uses. Ultimately, the DIM -OC recommended against such revenue credits. The DIM -OC also evaluated credits for proffered transportation Page 3 DIM -OC Report June 16, 2014 improvements, and endorsed such credits when the improvements exceeded what was identified in a Transportation Impact Analysis as necessary to offset projected impacts. The Board did ultimately, in January 2014, amend the policy to enable the transportation credits. Please contact staff should you have questions.

The DIM was created by an economic consultant who evaluated and analyzed development within the County in an effort to assist the County in planning for future capital facility requirements. Critical inputs to the DIM are to be reviewed and updated annually to assure that the fiscal projections accurately reflect County capital expenditures. PENDING The Board of Supervisors authorized use of the annual model update on June 25, 2014. The DIM projects that, on average, residential development has a negative fiscal impact on the County's capital expenditures. As such, all rezoning petitions with a residential component submitted after July 1, 2014 will be expected to demonstrate how the proposal will mitigate the following projected capital facility impacts: Single Family Dwelling Unit = $ 19,583 Town Home Dwelling Unit = $ 13,437 Apartment Dwelling Unit = $ 12,697 The following is a breakdown of the projected impacts per dwelling unit for each capital facility. Capital facility Single Family Town home Apartment Fire And Rescue General Government Public Safety Library Parks and Recreation School Construction Total $554 $412 $418 ................... ................................ ...m. $43 .................................. $33 ............................... $33 $0 $0 $0 $496 ........................... .......................... ... ._.................... $379 —................................. $379 ............................... $1,742 $1,332 $1,332 $16,747 $11,281 $10,535 $19,583 $13,437 $12,697 The projected capital expenditures depicted above do not include a credit for future real estate taxes.

Riley, Jr. County Administrator 5401665 -5666 Fax 5401667 -0370 E -mail: jriley@co.frederick.va.us TO: Board of Supervisors FROM: John R. Riley, Jr., County Administrator SUBJECT: Round Hill Fire Station - Capital Project Fund Supplemental Appropriation DATE: July 19, 2014 The Finance Committee recommended advertisement and approval of a Capital Project Fund Supplemental Appropriation for the construction of the new Round Hill fire station and event center. At the conclusion of the budget amendment public hearing, staff is seeking Board approval of the supplemental appropriation. In addition to approval of the appropriation, staff is seeking action from the Board on an authorization resolution which would allow the County to pursue financing through the Virginia Resources Authority. The Finance Committee did not forward a recommendation on a preferred fmancing option; however, there are two options that could be pursued relative to this project. The two options to be considered are: 1) Submit an application for the County's share of this project in the amount of $4,200,000 which would include $3,869,693.00 for the fire station component and associated site work and $330,307.00 for cost of issuance and any discount; or 2) Submit an application to fund both the fire station and event center in the amount of $5,900,000, which would include $5,600,541.00 and $299,459.00 for cost of issuance and any discount. Included as part of each authorizing resolution is a reimbursement resolution (paragraph 13), which would allow the County to reimburse itself for costs incurred between now and the bond closing date, tentatively set for August 13, 2014. Board action on the authorizing resolution would approve the reimbursement component as well. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Approval of the proposed amendment by the Board of Supervisors is being sought at this point. A recommendation of approval of the UDA Centers and the 2030 Comprehensive Plan amendment was received from the Planning Commission following their May 21, 2014 meeting. Previously, at your April 912014 meeting, the Board of Supervisors gave direction to move the UDA Centers and the 2030 Comprehensive Plan amendment through the public hearing process. The attached language is offered as a potential addition to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The proposed addition would be inserted into the Plan within Chapter I, Urban Areas and would be titled UDA Centers and the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. This amendment clarifies what a UDA Center is within the Comprehensive Plan. UDA Centers are areas designated to direct growth in a compact and highly efficient form within the Urban Areas. UDA Centers are located at strategic locations within the urban areas and should absorb a portion of the anticipated community growth with the maximum efficiency and effectiveness. The aim of this proposed amendment is to illustrate why UDA Centers in Frederick County are important and to highlight who would benefit from living in these strategic growth areas. The general consensus is that this amendment consolidates and reinforces the UDA Center discussion within the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and further strengthens sound planning principles within the County's urban areas. Further, the amendment supports the types of projects that the development community has indicated may be desirable, should the market ultimately decide that such a choice is warranted in Frederick County. An illustrative was previously provided as an illustration of potential development styles and scales that may work well in Frederick County. 107 North Kent Street, Suite 202 • Winchester, Virginia 22601 -5000 Background The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC) initiated the proposed amendment as a result of the ongoing discussion of this subject, most recently at the December 6, 2013 Board of Supervisors work session on this subject. During the work session questions were asked about the density, intensity, and marketability of this type of development. There was also a belief that the County should further qualify why this was important to Frederick County. A narrative is included which seeks to answer the questions asked during the work session. The CPPC endorsed the proposed amendment at their March 10, 2013 meeting. It is hoped that the Urban Center Design Cabinet Report and the TND (Traditional Neighborhood Design) Ordinance will be re- evaluated and will also move forward. A discussion was also held on this topic at the 2014 Planning Commission Retreat. The Planning Commission held a public hearing for the UDA Centers and the 2030 Comprehensive Plan proposed amendment at their meeting on May 21, 2014. One citizen, a resident of the Gainesboro District, was not in favor of high- density, high- efficiency housing and expressed his concerns this type ofhousing model may negatively impose upon citizens and force them to give up both liberties and freedoms. He stated it was not the way of life most people chose when they moved to Frederick County or lived here for many years. Commission members supported the amendment, pointing out Frederick County has already identified those urban areas where growth should occur and the proposed amendment provides greater flexibility with how these areas are to be developed. It was noted the proposal offers considerable design flexibility for various housing types intermixed with commercial which will help create areas within the county that are walkable, sustainable, and offer opportunities for people of all ages. They believed this was a step in the right direction. The Chairman pointed out this particular effort is a long -term proposal for Frederick County and would not be accomplished in a short period of time. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the UDA Centers and the 2030 Comprehensive Plan by a majority vote. The vote was as follows: YES (TO REC. APPROVAL) Unger, Marston, Crockett, Thomas, Molden, Kenney, Dunlap, Mohn, Wilmot NO: Ambrogi, Manuel, Triplett (Note: Commissioner Oates was absent from the meeting.) The UDA Centers and the 2030 Comprehensive Plan amendment are beingpresented to the Board of Supervisors as a public hearing item. Approval of the proposed amendment by the Board of Supervisors is being sought at this point. Please contact me if you have any further questions. MTR/pd /rsa Attachments S UDA Centers discussion points. Why UDA Centers are an integral part of Frederick County's overall growth management strategy. Located at very important locations within the County's Urban Areas, UDA Centers are strategic growth areas that will absorb a greater amount of the anticipated community growth in an efficient and effective way, providing relief and protection for the County's Rural Areas, and encouraging a variety of housing choices within the urban areas. Who? From where does the community growth come: internal or external growth. Over the past two decades, the amount of residential development in Frederick County has grown, increasing at a relatively consistent rate of approximately three percent a year. Supporting this growth was a period of significant expansion in the County's commercial and industrial base. According to the 2000 Census and more recent studies performed by the Economic Development Commission, Frederick County remains an in- commute location. That is more people come to the county daily for work and not to live which would create demand for public service. On the other hand, the main contributor to the population growth was the migration of people from outside the Winchester Metropolitan Statistic Area (MSA) to Frederick County for a higher quality of life including lower housing costs, and a lower tax rate. Frederick County has also become an attractive place to live for retirees. Excellent examples of communities supporting this trend have recently been developed. A major factor is also the Winchester Medical Center, as well as the presence of cultural activities in the arts. Notwithstanding the above, Frederick County should seek to be a community that provides a variety of opportunities for existing residents, young and old, for the next 50 years. As the community continues to grow, a greater number of residents will be those who also grew up in Frederick County. We are educating the next generation, how do we keep them in the community? Once graduated, often the kids don't return to Winchester. Why? Not only because of a lack of employment opportunities, but also amenities (next generation wants walk ability which does not currently exist). If the educated workforce leaves, why would business locate here? Urban Centers, with their entertainment, employment, residential, transportation, and educational opportunities, the top five attributes of Urban Centers, will further those opportunities and require a long term vision for the centers to come to fruition. The County's planning efforts enable residents, both current and future, recent graduates and recent retirees, to choose from an array of housing types that suit their needs and provide affordable housing opportunities. Implementation of this effort will ensure that the needs of all residents are met. FREDERICK COUNTY UDA CENTERS UDA CENTERS AND THE 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN (Proposed addition to be inserted into the 2030 Comprehensive Plan within Chapter I, Urban Areas), FUTURE Focus Frederick County seeks to focus growth in strategic areas where community facilities and public services are more readily available and can be provided in a more economical and sustainable manner. Frederick County has identified locations which promote higher urban densities and a more compact form of development. These strategic growth areas within the Urban Areas are known as UDA Centers. Residential densities higher than those previously experienced within the UDA would accommodate residents interested in living in more urban settings, with the highest densities located within specifically designated areas within UDA Centers. Potential locations are strategically situated to take advantage of existing development patterns and infrastructure locations. UDA Centers are designated to direct growth in a compact and highly efficient form within the Urban Areas, thereby reducing development pressures in the Rural Areas. Within the Urban Area, and particularly the UDA Centers, there is a higher expectation in design standards to create a quality urban community that successfully and sustainably accommodates the growth of the community. This enables a more sustainable form of development and encourages the creation of a sense of community. Frederick County strives to meet and exceed its residents' desires for living, working, and enjoying, through proactive community planning, and enhancements to the Urban Development Areas. COMMUNITY BENEFITS UDA Centers should feature a variety of housing choices, high quality retail, community facilities as focal points, employment opportunities, and provide for land uses that are connected by an attractive, efficient, multimodal transportation system. The mixing of uses provides a greater choice in mobility. Further, focusing development around walkable centers affords people the opportunity to work, live, shop, and play in locations that are near each other. The County should continue to establish policies which result in high quality residential neighborhoods which are able to accommodate a growing population and expanding workforce. Policies should recognize the interests of the residents entering and retiring from the workforce. A goal of the Neighborhood Villages and UDA Centers is to create new neighborhoods with a balance between residential, employment, and service uses. Proactive planning efforts are essential in both the Urban and Rural Areas to ensure that the County is able to deal with its future residential growth in a cost - effective and attractive manner, and meet market demand. POLICIES /IMPLEMENTATION POLICY AS FREDERICK COUNTY CONTINUES TO GROW, IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE VISION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR THE URBAN AREAS MEET EXPECTED GROWTH IN A SUSTAINABLE MANNER. GROWTH SHOULD PRIMARILY BE FOCUSED WITHIN THE URBAN AREAS. MORE INTENSIVE DEVELOPMENT SHOULD BE FOCUSED IN UDA CENTERS, PARTICULARLY MEETING THE RESIDENTIAL NEEDS OF THE YOUNG ADULTS, THE RETIREMENT GENERATION, AND WORKFORCE NEEDED FOR BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT IMPLEMENTATION • Focus new residential growth within the Urban Development Area and at higher densities within UDA Centers. Enact suitable planning and land use policies which will enable the County to identify where future residential growth should be accommodated. • Provide County residents, both current and future, an array of housing types and opportunities that suit their needs and provide affordable housing opportunities. POLICY: UDA CENTERS, LOCATED AT STRATEGIC LOCATIONS WITHIN THE URBAN AREAS, SHOULD ABSORB A PORTION OF THE ANTICIPATED COMMUNITY GROWTH WITH THE MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS. IMPLEMENTATION Higher density residential development is encouraged in close proximity to or mixed with commercial areas to enhance walkable access to employment, shopping, and entertainment — a lifestyle attractive to young adults and the newly retired. The County's strategic growth areas, the UDA Centers and Neighborhood Villages, are the most desirable locations for this type of development. • Residential housing types and design guidelines should be flexible to accommodate evolving demographic trends, and to ensure that housing choices are maximized. • UDA Centers enable the County to plan for and provide services in defined areas where they can reach the majority of the population at less cost to the taxpayer. • Focusing growth and services to the urban areas, and more specifically to the UDA Centers, will allow the County to develop community facilities that become focal points to the residential areas. Focusing new residential development around walkable centers allows people to work, go to school, live, shop, and play in locations that are near each other. \ _ % ® 2 ■ � 7 2 ® / pp o u § CL \ k CL _ Q .

Kent St., Winchester, VA 22601 I LTJ MaTT • I will be unable to attend the upcoming June 21 Planning Commission meeting however understand this public hearing will address an amendment to the Comp Plan that will incorporate the proposed Urban Development Area (UDA) Design Standards that was the subject of the Development Consults exercise last year. The UDA Center policy was drafted as an amendment to the County's 2030 Comprehensive Plan, and is a follow up to and in support of the UDA Design Cabinet Report and the draft Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND) Ordinance discussed by the Development Consults. The proposed amendment continues to consolidate and reinforce the UDA Centers discussion within the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and further strengthens sound planning principles within the County's urban areas. The proposed amendment illustrates why UDA Centers in Frederick County are important and to highlight who would benefit from living in these strategic growth areas. The fact that the Board has authorized these changes to move forward is important to me and I wanted to send a brief statement in support of this amendment.

REVIEW EVALUATIONS Virginia Department of Transportation: The application for a Conditional Use Permit for this property appears to have little measurable impact on Route 629, the VDOT facility which would provide access to the property. Present entrance is adequate for proposed improvements. Should Page 3 CUP #02 -14 Jessica M. Neff June 11, 2014 business ever expand in the future, entrance may need to be upgraded. Frederick County Fire and Rescue: Plans approved. Frederick County Fire Marshall: Plans approved as long as there is at least one working smoke detector and 1 -51b 2A /IOBC fire extinguisher within 75 feet of the areas being occupied by the dogs. Frederick County Inspections: The building shall comply with The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, The International Existing Building Code 2009 and section 304 - B, Business Use Group of the International Building Code /2009. Other Code that applies is ICC /ANSI A117.1 -03 Accessible and Usable Buildings and Facilities and 2009 International Energy Code. If new kennel construction exceeds 200 square feet, a building permit would be required. Frederick- Winchester Health Department: The Health Department has no objection to the request as stated. This does not grant approval for additional employees. Applicant may not dispose of canine waste via the septic tank drainfield on site. Winchester Regional Airport: We have reviewed the referenced conditional use permit request proposal. While the site does lie within the airspace operations of the Winchester Regional Airport, it is outside of the close in part 77 surfaces and should not impact airport operations. Frederick County Sanitation Authority: No comments. City of Winchester: No comments. Planning and Zoning: Kennels are a permitted use in the RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District with an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) [Code of Frederick County §165-401.03.K]. This proposed use will take place on a 7 +/- acre parcel; surrounded by properties that are zoned RA. The 2030 Comprehensive Policy Plan of Frederick County (Comprehensive Plan) identifies this area of the County to remain rural in nature and is not part of any land use study. The Zoning Ordinance defines a Kennel: "As a place prepared to house, board, breed, handle or otherwise keep or care for dogs for sale or in return for compensation." The Zoning Ordinance requires that kennels be subject to additional performance standards in order to mitigate negative impacts to adjoining residential properties to include, all dogs to be confined within a secure structure and a Category C Buffer. There will be no employees with this proposed kennel per the Frederick County Health Department. The properties immediately adjacent to this proposed CUP are currently zoned RA Zoning District, with the nearest residential dwelling being approximately 600 feet from this proposed dog kennel. Therefore, the Page 4 CUP 902 -14 Jessica M. Neff June 11, 2014 intent of the Category C Buffer can be met, as 400 feet is required for a no screen Category C Buffer. The applicant will be constructing a 20 x 30 square foot enclosed kennel with a fenced area for the dogs, at the rear of the property. The applicant has indicated that no more than twenty —eight (28) dogs will be on the property at any given time. All dogs must be confined indoors with the exception of when they are walked or exercised, and will not to be let outdoors prior to 8:00 a.m. Dogs must be confined indoors by 9:00 p.m. In reviewing this application, the following conditions are considered appropriate reflective of the applicant's request, review agency comments, and /or in an effort to mitigate any potential impacts as noted. All review agency comments shall be complied with at all times. No more than twenty -eight (28) dogs on the property at any given time. (The applicant has requested the number of dogs with this kennel) This CUP is solely to enable the boarding of dogs on this property. (The applicant does not want to breed dogs) No employees other than those residing on the property shall be allowed. (This condition is per the Frederick County Health Department) All dogs shall be controlled so as not to create a nuisance to any adjoining properties by roaming free or barking. All dogs must be confined indoors by 9:00 p.m. and not be let outdoors prior to 8:00 a.m. (This condition is to help mitigate any impacts to adjoining properties) Any proposed business sign shall conform to Cottage Occupation sign requirements and shall not exceed four (4) square feet in size and five (5) feet in height. Any expansion or modification of this use will require an approval of a new CUP. STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR THE 04/02/14 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING The request complies with applicable policies and ordinances. The Planning staff recommends approval of the CUP, with the following eight (8) conditions: 1. All review agency comments shall be complied with at all times. Page 5 CUP #02 -14 Jessica M. Neff June 11, 2014 2. No more than twenty -eight (28) dogs shall be permitted on the property at any given time. 3. This CUP is solely to enable the boarding of dogs on this property. 4. No employees other than those residing on the property shall be allowed. 5. All dogs shall be controlled so as not to create a nuisance to any adjoining properties by roaming free or barking. 6.

Any proposed business sign shall conform to Cottage Occupation sign requirements and shall not exceed four (4) square feet in size and five (5) feet in height. 8. Any expansion or modification of this use will require the approval of a new CUP. PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION OF THE 4/02/14 MEETING The applicant said there will be no dog breeding, solely boarding; the dogs will be inside at all times, except when walked or exercised; and the kennel building will be a free - standing garage constructed with wider than normal walls to provide noise insulation and the walls and attic will be insulated for better heating and air conditioning. Two neighboring residents spoke in opposition to the proposed kennel. Both residents were concerned about the devaluation of their property; they were concerned about noise from barking dogs disrupting the quiet of their neighborhood; they were concerned about odors and how dog waste would be disposed; and they were concerned about water runoff They did not believe their residential neighborhood was a practical location for the operation of this business. Commission members were concerned about noise from dog barking. They advised the applicant there were a number of different construction techniques for sound abatement in a building. Those construction techniques involved a benefit/cost ratio standpoint that needed to be considered by the applicant. They also pointed out that when dogs are outside, they will bark and there was no way to muzzle them. They encouraged the applicant to be mindful about the conditions of the permit and the possibility the permit could be revoked, if the operation becomes a public nuisance. Other Commissioners pointed out this location is a somewhat remote agricultural area buffered by cornfields and large stands of trees. They mentioned the adjoining State agricultural research center where there is spraying taking place, noise from tractors, and the various types of farm animals being raised in this area. The applicant stated that the kennel Page 6 CUP #02 -14 Jessica M. Neff June 11, 2014 building will be constructed with wider walls to provide for better noise insulation. By a unanimous vote, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the conditional use permit with the conditions as recommended by the staff, as follows: 1. All review agency comments shall be complied with at all times. 2. No more than twenty -eight (28) dogs shall be permitted on the property at any given time. 3. This conditional use permit (CUP) is solely to enable the boarding of dogs on this property. 4. No employees other than those residing on the property shall be allowed. 5. All dogs shall be controlled so as not to create a nuisance to any adjoining properties by roaming free or barking. 6. All dogs must be confined indoors by 9:00 p.m. and not let outdoors prior to 8:00 a.m. 7. Any proposed business sign shall conform to cottage occupation sign requirements and shall not exceed four (4) square -feet in size and five (5) feet in height. 8. Any expansion or modification of this use will require approval of a new conditional use permit. (Note: Commissioner Crockett was absent from the meeting.) Two citizens spoke in opposition to this use at the April 2, 2014, Planning Commission Meeting. One of the concerns was the devaluation of properties located near kennels. Staff contacted the Commissioner of Revenue Office with the concern of devaluation of properties located near kennels. The Commissioners Office had no issues of devaluation of properties near kennels or with approved Conditional Use Permits in general. The noise and control of the dogs is addressed by Condition 95 of the Conditional Use Permit. Furthermore, the kennel building will be a free - standing garage constructed with wider than normal walls to provide noise insulation and the walls and attic will be insulated for better heating and air conditioning. The applicant has contacted a company for the disposal of dog waste. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SUMMARY & ACTION OF THE 04/23/14 MEETING: Page 7 CUP #02 -14 Jessica M. Neff June 11, 2014 The Board of Supervisors held a public hearing on this proposed Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a kennel. Several adjoining property owners spoke in opposition to this kennel, and two (2) letters of opposition were received.

Any proposed business sign shall conform to Cottage Occupation sign requirements and shall not exceed four (4) square feet in size and five (5) feet in height. 13. Any expansion or modification of this use will require a new CUP. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SUMMARY & ACTION OF THE 5/14/14 MEETING: Supervisor Lofton stated a number of concerns regarding this proposal had been cited by the neighbors, to include traffic and declining property values. With regard to traffic, he noted there were currently 600 vehicle trips per day on Laurel Grove Road. If 28 people dropped off and picked up dogs each day, which would equate to an additional 56 vehicle trips per day, which was a less than 10% increase. Traffic would not be a deterrent to this application. With regard to decreased property values, Supervisor Lofton stated he had received a paper from a realtor stating property values would decline if this kennel were permitted; however, he did not see any comparable sales or other empirical data that would support this claim. He went on to say he had contacted two appraisal firms regarding the effects of kennels on property values and asked them to provide empirical data that supported the claim of decreased property values. To date he has not seen anything that would support this claim. He noted the Commissioner of Revenue has no data to show dog kennels decrease property values. After two failed motions the Board of Supervisors postponed any action until 6/25/14 meeting.

L h 'Ln -' M 1 `_:• � s + _�. April 2, 2014 Thank you for the opportunity to address the Planning Commission- My name is Sheila Pinner and I am here tonight with my husband Jack Pinner. We are residents of Laurel Grove Rd. We are very close (across the street and within sight) of the proposed indoor boarding kennel. We are also here tonight to express our concerns and opposition to the proposed kennel. Since receiving Ms. Neffs letter of March 10, 2014 regarding her proposed indoor boarding kennel, I have been researching the effects the proposed kennel would have on us as property owners. I have been focused on a debate going on in neighboring Clarke County involving the proposed approval of a dog kennel. In an article written in the Winchester Star, former supervisor and realtor A. R. Dunning "Pete" Dunning read a letter from the county Commissioner of Revenue, Donna M. Peake, who said homeowners there would lose 15 to 20 percent of the value of their homes if the kennel is built next to their properties. I do understand that this involves a different property. I immediately began contacting local realtors and county offices for information. I would note in addition there are thousands of sites on the internet from every state which address devaluing of property by having a kennel near your property. I was speechless when I read over and over again that a kennel could have a negative effect of anywhere from 15 to 50 percent on property values. The realtors I surveyed did support the point of view that my property would be devalued. No one can guarantee that my property value will not be affected. Two questions which I would like to have an answer to: Will the property owner's conditional permit transfer if the property is sold? I have been told VA (Frederick County) would require a new permit. Is this correct? Could a new property owner expand the business on a renewal of the same permit? I understand from realtors I asked that VA (Frederick and surrounding counties) does not have a nuisance disclosure requirement if you sell your property. Is this correct? My understanding is that VA has a disclosure form which states on it that you do not have to disclose a neighboring nuisance if you sell your home. But, word of mouth would travel. Realtors know what is located in a community. Most buyers would speak to neighbors to find out about the area. One realtor made the comment "who could sell a home next door to a kennel? Common sense tells me most folks would look elsewhere ". My other concerns are obvious: Noise (you can easily hear more than one dog as far as '/ mile — what about 28 dogs? Traffic — Rt. 629 has been close to completely paved in the last few years — this has added more traffic traveling all hours of the day and night (neighbors have had mail and paper boxes constantly destroyed due to traffic increase). This will only increase with an operating business on the road. What hours would the kennel have for drop off and pick up? It is proposed as a 24 hour operation. 28 dogs and 28 owners in 28 vehicles that could travel on our residentially zoned road in one morning and a new group of 28 owners in 28 vehicles with 28 dogs dropped off that afternoon would be 56 additional vehicles on the road in a day, extreme but possible. What arrangements have been made for parking? Would this face the front of the property? What about the odor of taking care of this number of animals? Are there proposals for adequate disposal of waste? Will there be a septic system? Will there be runoff? What are the county requirements if any? Will the entire facility be fenced or just the walking and exercise areas? What is required? Has there been a noise impact study? I have read much on the proper authorities coming out to investigate a barking dog and measuring the noise levels? What recourse is open to property owners once the permit is issued? Is this just the first phase of a proposed kennel? What are the restrictions as far as expansion? Are their required site visits from county or state? Who regulates the conditions of the permit? What kind of precedent would this set for other proposed money making businesses in a rural, residential area? Fourteen (14) kennels for 28 dogs. Is this just the start? My husband and I feel that this is not a local need. There are other kennels in the area offering the same service. No amount of convenience is worth the detrimental effect to surrounding homes. Ms. Neff states in her letter that this is a dream of hers to work with and help animals. My husband and I have had a dream since we built on family property over 42 years ago. Most of our neighbors have been on Laurel Grove as long as we have or longer. We dreamed of having a wonderful retirement and being able to enjoy the serenity and the beauty of nature surrounding our home. I do not believe looking out from any front facing window in my home to a dog boarding kennel would add to this serene environment. Sheila Pinner 408 Laurel Grove Rd. Winchester, VA 22602 (540) 869 -4476 To: mcheran@co.frederick.va.us rhess@fcva.us rshickle@fcva.us cdehavengfeva.us fisher@fcva.us rwellsAfcva.us lofton ,fcva.us ccollinsAfcva.us Subject: BOS 4/23/14 Public Hearing on CUP 02 -14 -- Opposition of Scott and Bethanne Berman to Conditional Use Permit #02 -14 ( "CUP ") /Jessica M. Neff To: Members of the Frederick County Board of Supervisors (`BOS ") and the Frederick County Planning Staff From: Scott and Bethanne Berman Our home is located at 247 Laurel Grove Road, TM # 7383 as shown on the attached Planning Department Map created March 11, 2014. We have resided in our home for 15 years. Based on the scale of the attached Map, our home is approximately 1,890 feet from the proposed site of Jessica Neff s Kennel. The proposed Kennel site and our home are both located on a ridge of essentially equivalent elevation, meaning that noise from the proposed Kennel will readily travel to our home. Consistent with comments presented at the April 2 Planning Commission Hearing, we oppose the approval of a CUP for the Kennel based on the following concerns: 1. The Kennel, clearly a commercial use increasing vehicle traffic on Laurel Grove Road, will be a use inconsistent with the residential nature of the neighborhood. 2. The presence of the Kennel will reduce the value of our property and of our neighbors' properties. The Kennel, as presently planned consistent with the Planning Commission's "Conditions," will constitute a nuisance to the neighborhood. We respectfully submit that no CUP, regardless of the "Conditions" imposed, should be granted for the establishment of the Kennel. If, however, a CUP is to be granted, then, as set forth on Page 3 of the Staff Report to the BOS, the Zoning Ordinance requires that this proposed Kennel be subject to "performance standards" to assure the mitigation of the negative impacts which will result to us and our neighbors. Further, Page 6 of the Staff Report suggests that the Commissioner of Revenue apparently has "no issues" concerning devaluation of properties located near kennels with approved CUPS. This establishes that protection against devaluation of our and our neighbors' properties is dependent upon this Board adopting specific, enforceable Conditions to mitigate the damaging effects of the proposed Kennel. We understand that the Planning Commission has recommended only the following eight (8) Conditions, which we respectfully suggest must be substantially strengthened and made more specific: All review agency comments shall be complied with at all times. We believe the only significant agency comment to be the Health Department's statement that "Applicant may not dispose of canine waste via the septic tank drainfield on site." Page 6 of the Staff Report states merely that "The Applicant has contacted a company for the disposal of dog waste." We understand that while there may not be established regulations for average waste produced per dog per day, nevertheless we understand there to be a "low" estimate of 5 gallons per day per dog and a "high" estimate of 10 gallons per day per dog, which would produce a range of 140 -280 gallons per day of wastewater assuming the Kennel operates at the Planning Commission's maximum of twenty -eight (28) dogs. We request that the Board, as a Condition of any CUP, require the Applicant to provide a written plan confirming: a. proiected wastewater usage for the Kennel under maximum capaci b. proiected system for containing and storing both wastewater and solid waste: and the frequency of waste pumping/waste removal, with confirmation of a contract with a waste hauler. 2. No more than twenty -eight (28) dogs shall be permitted on the property at any given time. Given the waste containment and disposal issues of Condition 1 above and the control and noise issues of Condition 5 below, we submit that the maximum number of does not be permitted to exceed at any given time. This CUP is solely to enable the boarding of dogs on this property. The Applicant's Application notes the desire to operate the Kennel "for those going on vacation and need a temporary home for their dogs while away." Therefore, we request that this Condition be expanded to provide that no does shall be maintained in th Kennel for a time period exceeding 28 consecutive days. p/6"77- 4. No employees other than those residing on the property shall be allowed In order to assure the performance of Conditions 5 and 6 below, we request that there be a Requirement that at least one person residing on the property shall remain on site at all times that any dogs are housed in the Kennel. All dogs shall be controlled so as not to create a nuisance to any adjoining properties by roaming free or barking. As we understand it, Section 48 -23 "Unreasonable noise unlawful" of the Frederick County Code provides merely that it shall be unlawful, after written notice by the Sheriff to the custodian of a dog for such custodian to allow such dog to make unreasonably loud noises as are plainly audible to adjoining residents for property owners so as to unreasonably annoy or disturb such residents or property owners. Since Section 48 -23 requires prior written notice from the Sheriff, and since this Section contains no specific criteria assisting its enforcement, the Board must set specific Conditions on the proposed Kennel. 2 Pages 3 and 6 of the Staff Report note that the proposed 20 x 30 square foot free - standing garage that is to serve as the Kennel will be constructed with wider than normal walls to provide noise insulation. However, while the Planning Commission noted concerns for noise abatement, Condition 5 provides no standards. Obviously, noise mitigation of dog barking (both inside and outside of the kennel structure) must be achieved, in order to make Condition 5 meaningful and enforceable. To assure performance, we suggest: a. specific noise - abatement construc standards, with the use of specific sound absorbing materials must be imposed upon the proposed kennel garage structure, since the facility apparently will not consist of concrete walls or a standard wood type roof construction. The type of construction should provide at least a nominal 50 -55 STC performance which equates to a nominal 45-50 dBA noise reduction at the typical doe bark frequency range Further, the building requirements should address the "composite performance" provided by walls roof, doors, windows and any ventilation openings, as typically windows and doors represent the "weakest path" to abating noise Noise emanation from the facility should be addressed by reducing openings represented by windows, doors and /or ventilation systems. b. a specific size /dimension should be imposed on the "exercise yard," and a fencing Requirement of a minimum of six (6) feet in height, with all fencing to be maintained throughout the life of the CUP. C. general experience establishes that individual dogs under control of a person generally do not bark. Generally, one dog or a few dogs under the control of individuals during outdoor activities may not bark, and if barking occurs, the dogs could be brought indoors. Therefore, we suggest a Limitation as to the number of dogs that will be permitted to be outside of the kennel structure at any one time should be established, along with a Requirement that the dogs be supervised /controlled while outside. We suggest that no more than 5 supervised dogs be permitted to be outside at any one time, and that no more than 2 unsupervised dogs be permitted to be outside at any one time. All dogs must be confined indoors by 9:00 p.m. and not let outdoors prior to 8:00 a.m. Without strengthening Condition 5 as suggested above, this Condition literally permits the Applicant to maintain 100% of the dogs outdoors, everyday, during the 13 hour period of 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. The Board must impose specific Requirements to avoid the creation of a nuisance. 7. Any proposed business sign shall conform to Cottage Occupation sign requirements and shall not exceed four (4) square feet in size and five (5) feet in height. No comment, other than the Zoning Ordinance defines a "Cottage Occupation" as "an occupation or profession customarily carried on in a dwelling unit or an accessory building which `...is clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the dwelling unit for residential purposes. "' The presence of twenty -eight (28) dogs (each generating a fee on a daily basis), 24 hours per day and 7 days per week, "stretches" the logical definition of a "Cottage Occupation," and makes the residential use of Ms. Neff 's property (and the residential use of our and our neighbors' properties) incidental and secondary to the Kennel itself. 8. Any expansion or modification of this use will require the approval of a new CUP. In addition, we suggest that any CUP be restricted solely to the Applicant (Jessica M. Neff), and that the operation of the Kennel under the CUP not be transferable to any other person or entity without the prior approval of the Board as an amendment to the CUP Conditions. Page 3 of the Staff Report references a 400 foot distance as being required for a "no screen Category C Buffer." Page 5 of the Staff Report notes comments of Planning Commissioners that the Kennel location is buffered by corn fields and large stands of trees. Given, however, that there is no guarantee of the continued existence of the corn fields or the trees, and given the siting of the Kennel on the ridge, we suggest that supplemental screening through Applicant's planting of Evergreen trees along the southeastern boundary of Applicant's property be required Thank you for your consideration of our concerns, which we look forward to discussing further during the April 23 Public Hearing.

Two items relating to the provision of sewer and water in the vicinity of the Town of Middletown are presented to the Board of Supervisors for further direction. Staff is seeking direction to move both items through the public hearing process. Item i) is the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA - Future Expansion Area Comprehensive Policy Plan Amendment (CPPA). Item ii) is a request from Middletown Properties, LLC for the ability to serve an approximately 41 acre sewer and water area in support of the Reliance Road Land Use Study. Item i The Middletown/Lord Fairfax Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA) - Future Expansion Area draft amendment to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan is once again presented to the Board of Supervisors for direction. Staff is seeking direction to move the draft amendment through the public hearing process. Previously, the Board of Supervisors had discussed this item and decided that further discussion should occur with the Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) on the general topic of sewer and water service in Frederick County. Subsequently, two work sessions were held between the Board of Supervisors and the FCSA during 2013 at which the general topic was discussed at length. 107 North Kent Street, Suite 202 • Winchester, Virginia 22601 -5000 Board of Supervisors Discussion: Middletown Area Sewer and Water Discussion. June 16, 2014 Page 2 The applicant's representative had requested that this item be brought back to the Board of Supervisors for their consideration. The Board of Supervisors delayed providing direction at their May meeting to allow an opportunity to continue discussion on this item with the Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) and adjacent property owners. Background. Following on from the LFCC/Middletown Sewer and Water Service Area Plan, approved in 2012, which created a 138 acre SWSA in the area surrounding, and including the Lord Fairfax Community College, the CPPC and Planning Commission continued the discussion of the surrounding area previously identified as Phase 2. On March 11, 2013, the Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC) recommended approval of the Comprehensive Plan amendment for a change in the land use designation of this property to OM with the recognition that other business development land uses aimed at supporting Lord Fairfax Community College may be considered with rezoning requests implementing the Plan. The CPPC's endorsement included the language added to the previously approved land use plan and an updated land use map. The CPPC expressed their desire to see the Board of Supervisors provide guidance on the timing of the expansion of the SWSA in support of the expansion area. As expressed by the property owner's representative during the Planning Commission discussion, it is the property owner's desire to see the SWSA expanded at this time. The Planning Commission discussed this item at their April 3, 2013 meeting. The Commission discussed how the provision of water and sewer would occur in this area. Staff reiterated that the Plan would maintain consistency with the recently approved Middletown/Lord Fairfax SWSA Plan. The Town of Middletown and the City of Winchester would be involved in the provision of public water and sewer. No other issues were raised by the Planning Commission and the Commission expressed their general support of this amendment, in particular, as it would enhance the College and its growth and development. This discussion at the Board of Supervisors provided an opportunity for the continued review of this proposed amendment to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan; the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA. The provision of water and sewer services remained the focus of this discussion. In particular, the role that the FCSA played in serving this area and the relationship between the FCSA, the Town of Middletown, and theCity of Winchester in providing this service. Please find attached with this agenda item the proposed addition to the Middletown /Lord Fairfax Sewer and Water Service Area Plan. Board of Supervisors Discussion: Middletown Area Sewer and Water Discussion. June 16, 2014 Page 3 Item ii Middletown Properties, LLC contacted Frederick County requesting that the Board of Supervisors allow water and sewer to their property consistent with the Reliance Road Land Use Study. Middletown Properties, LLC owns approximately 41 acres at the Middletown Exit of Interstate 81, east of the interchange. About 10 acres of the property is already zoned B2 (Business General). The following is an excerpt from the Reliance Road Area Land Use Plan. The land use plan is envisioned to guide land use decisions for an area of approximately 311 acres over the next 20 to 30 years. Recognizing the Town's current water availability, development within the study area will initially be limited until an additional water supply is more readily available. Additionally, policy enabling the Town to provide water and sewer service to the County properties would require Board approval. Please see the attached letter, dated June 5, 2014. In addition, staff has attached the Reliance Road Area Land Use Plan for your review. Staff is seeking direction on this request. Please contact the Planning Department should you have any questions regarding the information provided for the above two items. Attachments MTR /pd APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS MIDDLETOWN/LORD FAIRFAX SEWER AND WATER SERVICE AREA Lord Fairfax Community College (LFCC) is a comprehensive, multi- campus public institution of higher education. Through its three locations — the Fauquier and Middletown Campuses and the Luray -Page County Center — the College serves eight localities in the Shenandoah Valley and Piedmont regions. The localities are the counties of Clarke, Fauquier, Frederick, Page, Rappahannock, Shenandoah and Warren and the city of Winchester. Frederick County's Middletown Campus is located at 173 Skirmisher Lane, Middletown, Virginia. The Middletown campus has grown since it was founded in 1970 into the campus illustrated in the following site plan. c A WTO LFCC is looking to expand its facilities on its current property and on property owned by the LFCC Foundation. The Middletown Elementary School is located immediately north of Lord Fairfax Community College and is one of eleven elementary schools operated by Frederick County Public Schools serving elementary aged children in Frederick County. Middletown /Lord Fairfax Sewer and Water Service Area Business Development Expansion Area BOS Discussion Draft May 21, 2014 APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA The Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA) is an important policy tool used by Frederick County to determine where public water and sewer service may be provided. The Board of Supervisors approves the location of the SWSA boundaries through the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan; the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, and amendments thereto. As a result, properties located within the SWSA may enjoy access to public water and sewer. The Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA has been established to enable the provision of public water and sewer in the area north of the Town of Middletown to current and future institutional land uses, including Lord Fairfax Community College and the Middletown Elementary School. The supporting map identifies the location of the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA boundary. Future study of the area surrounding the Town of Middletown may identify additional properties that could be added to the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA, if deemed appropriate by the Board of Supervisors. The Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) has the primary responsibility to manage the provision of water and sewer in Frederick County, and therefore, within the SWSA. In some cases, other public entities may serve properties within Frederick County, if approved by the Board of Supervisors. Lord Fairfax Community College currently obtains water from the City of Winchester, and the Town of Middletown receives their wastewater. The FCSA has expressed that, at this time, they have no desire to serve this area of Frederick County. However, nothing would preclude the FCSA from serving this area in the future if it is deemed necessary and appropriate. The approval of this plan by the Board of Supervisors would allow the City of Winchester and the Town of Middletown to continue to serve the properties with water and sewer, respectively. It is recognized that properties owned by the State of Virginia are preempted from local control by Frederick County. Frederick County and Lord Fairfax Community College will continue to work collaboratively on issues related to the growth and development in this area of Frederick County. Land Use Frederick County uses the 2030 Comprehensive Plan to guide the future land uses. The Town of Middletown's Foresight Middletown plan, which was adopted into the Town's Comprehensive Plan in 2005, guides the future land uses within the Town and was considered when drafting this plan. Middletown /Lord Fairfax Sewer and Water Service Area Business Development Expansion Area BOS Discussion Draft May 21, 2014 APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS The area encompassed by the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA is envisioned to promote the continued growth of institutional land uses that enhance the existing educational institutions; Lord Fairfax Community College and the Middletown Elementary School. To that end, the plan calls for the establishment of approximately 140 acres of institutional land use that will serve the citizens of Frederick County and the broader region. Institutional land uses are defined as a nonprofit or quasi - public use or institution, such as a church, library, public or private school, hospital or municipally owned or operated building, structure or land used for public purposes. Institutions of higher education are defined as an educational institution whose primary purpose is to provide a collegiate or graduate education. Transportation The Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA is immediately north of the Town of Middletown and is bounded by Route 11, Valley Pike, to the west, and Interstate 81 to the east. Access to the area is via Route 11, Valley Pike. Route 11, Interstate 81, and Exit 302, are strong assets to the areas' transportation network, and to the success of the institutional uses envisioned for this area. It will be important to ensure the function of this transportation network. In rapidly growing areas, as noted in the Foresight Middletown plan, controlling and coordinating the number, design and location of new access points to major roadways is critical to maintaining the safety and capacity of the road system as traffic volumes increase. Accordingly, access to Valley Pike, Route 11, should be managed and limited. In the future, internal connections within the institutional land uses should be considered. In addition, the primary route to this area from Interstate 81 should be enhanced to safely and effectively manage the traffic and to reflect the Foresight Middletown plan as a means to create an attractive entrance to the Town and this developing area. Consistent application of Comprehensive Plan goals to achieve an acceptable level of service on area roads and overall transportation network, level of service C or better, should be promoted. Further, efforts should be made to ensure that additional degradation of the transportation beyond an acceptable level of service shall be avoided. Consideration of future development applications within the study area should only occur when an acceptable level of service has been achieved and key elements and connections identified in this plan have been provided. Middletown /Lord Fairfax Sewer and Water Service Area Business Development Expansion Area BOS Discussion Draft May 21, 2014 APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS Business Development Expansion Area (Added 01/09/13) Following the approval of the Area Plan by the Board of Supervisors on November, 2012, the area immediately to the north of the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA was evaluated for potential inclusion into the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA Area Plan. This section, Business Development Expansion Area, is the resulting addition to the plan which provides guidance to the adjacent property owners regarding the future land uses. The policies established in the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA Area Plan guiding transportation and the provision of public water and sewer would apply to this area of future expansion. The expansion of the SWSA line would change with the approval of the Business Development Expansion Area. The Business Development Expansion Area is approximately 100 acres in size and is contiguous to the existing Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA. The future land use in this area is envisioned to promote areas of business development in support of the adjacent land use, Lord Fairfax Community College. The business development land uses may include a variety of support services to programs offered at the College, including but not limited to, Health Care, Life Sciences, and Technology. Other independent business development land uses may promote the mixed use industrial /office land use classification of the Comprehensive Plan, the OM Park District, which is designed to provide for areas for research - and - development centers, office parks, and minimal impact industrial and assembly uses. OM District Land Uses are expected to be of a scale that is compatible with the adjoining educational land uses (LFCC AND Middletown Elementary School) and developed with sensitivity to the unique business development partnership promoted by this plan. To that end, OM District standards such as height, mass, loading /unloading and other design criteria will be expected to be of a limited scale and appropriately oriented in the future development of this planned area. It is recognized that zoning districts other than the OM district may be proposed provided they support business development and the college. All of the above would provide opportunities for workforce development associated with Lord Fairfax Community College. Residential land uses are not proposed in this area. Middletown /Lord Fairfax Sewer and Water Service Area Business Development Expansion Area BOS Discussion Draft May 21, 2014 APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS The area to the west of the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA is not envisioned to be included in the Area Plan. Route 11, Valley Pike, will continue to be the western boundary of the Middletown /Lord Fairfax SWSA. The land in this area to the west of Route 11, Valley Pike, is rural in character and maintaining it in its current state would reinforce the rural and historical character of the land, and would preserve the vistas to the west. In addition, it is recognized that there are environmental features in this area as Meadow Brook and its associated floodplain bisects the area from north to south. The area is further constrained by the railroad tracks that also parallel Route 11, Valley Pike.

Mr. Wyatt is requesting that this proposed Comprehensive Plan A«iendment is placed back on the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors agendas for consideration for approval. As you are aware, this item was last discussed by the Board of Supervisors during the summer of 2013. At that time, the Board of Supervisors were interested in further discussing the water and sewer issues associated with this, and other, SWSA changes to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. A work session was held by the Board of Supervisors with the Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) in August of 2013 to discuss this issue. No further direction was provided with regards to this request at that time. Staff is looking for direction for addressing Mr. Wyatt's request.

As you know, Greenway Engineering has been working on behalf of the Hester Group to seek approval of an expansion of the Middletown/Lord Fairfax SWSA and for the designation off this parcel as future OM District land use subject to rezoning approvals. This request was considered by the Comprehensive Plans and Programs Subcommittee, Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors in the first half of 2013. The Board of Supervisors placed this request on the table pending a work session with the Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) to allow for both Boards to discuss matters pertaining to water resources and future service planning for the County. As you know, this work session occurred and there was no a discussion regarding future FCSA service in this area of the County. Greenway Engineering and the Hester Group met with the FCSA Director to discuss this particular request and determined that FCSA has no facilities within this area of the County and has no plans for development of infrastructure within this area of the County in their capital planning program. Greenway Engineering requested a letter from the FCSA Director, which is attached along with the letters we previously obtained from the City of Winchester and the Town of Middletown acknowledging their availability of services for this request.

Having said thus, as development within the area continues to grow, the possibility of expanding our water and sanitary systems are growing. Industrial growth as well as residential growth will require an extensive investment in the utility expansion of the Authority. As of this time, there is no real timeline established. With regards to the future expansions of the SWSA boundary, as discussed previously, it is the recommendation of the Authority that provisions be made to allow transfer of water and sanitary sewer services to the Authority without having to renegotiate at a later date. A provision such as this will allow the Authority to treat all of our clients in a more uniform method should services be offered within the Middletown area.

This property is bordered by Reliance Road and Buckton Road and surrounds our Interstate Exxon Station. About 10 acres of this property is already zoned B -2. Walter Aikens and Robert Claytor of Middletown Properties request that the Frederick County Board of Supervisors allow water and sewer to this property consistent with the Reliance Road Land Use Study. We have submitted several plans to use this property for a travel center with hotels and restaurants and office buildings. We feel this would be a positive addition to the Frederick County tax base and provide services to our citizens and to the interstate traveler. This could be the first of several steps to develop this exit. I have about 85 acres adjacent to this property to the South and Robbie Molden has about 90 acres adjacent to the East. We would be happy to provide any additional information that you need. Thank you for your consideration on this request.

Shortly thereafter, the Reliance Road Steering Committee (RRSC) was convened. The RRSC was composed of representatives from the Town Council and the Board of Supervisors. The RRSC met various times over the ensuing months. The Town representatives also held a community meeting and met with individual property owners within the study area to gain an understanding of the interest of the property owners in terms of the Town's desired boundary line adjustment with the County, as well as future land use opportunities; these meetings were summarized and presented to the RRSC by Town representatives. It was noted that while approximately 37 acres of B2 Business General Zoning exists within the study area, only one site has been developed and benefits from the Town's water and sewer system: the 2.7 acre site occupied by an existing Exxon service station. The RRSC also evaluated the existing transportation network in addition to water and sewer availability. The RRSC considered the Foresight Middletown plan (adopted into the Town's Comprehensive Plan in 2005), which promoted the implementation of a technology park east of the interstate. The results of these findings led to the crafting of the Reliance Road Area Land Use Plan as a means to illustrate the potential land uses, and the supporting transportation and public water and sewer for the area, to foster further discussions. The land use plan is envisioned to guide land use decisions for an area of approximately 311 acres over the next 20 to 30 years. Recognizing the Town's current water availability, development within the study area will initially be limited until an additional water supply is more readily available. Additionally, policy enabling the Town to provide water and sewer service to the County properties would require Board approval. Land Use The proximity of the study area to I -81, Exit 302, enhances the opportunities for land uses that benefit from the interstate. As such, commercial and technology uses would be most beneficial at this location. The plan calls for the establishment of approximately 44 acres of commercial uses that serve the travelling public, such as hotels, gasoline service stations, and restaurants. The commercial opportunities would be located immediately east of the interstate interchange, on the north and south sides of Reliance Road. This is also the area where public water and sewer presently serves Reliance Road Area Land Use Plan Adopted December 14, 2011 APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS the existing Exxon service station. These land uses could be implemented through the B2 Business General Zoning District. Technology uses are envisioned both north and south of Reliance Road, covering approximately 259 acres. Based on the targeted businesses identified by the Winchester- Frederick County Economic Development Commission, the technology uses would include economic sectors such as: Advanced Security, Assembly, Business Services, and Life Sciences. These land uses would be implemented through the OM Office Manufacturing Zoning District. In recognition of the continuation of the agricultural and large lot residential land uses adjacent to the study area, efforts should be implemented through the rezoning and development process that mitigate and lessen the adverse impacts that the commercial and technological uses may introduce. Mitigation techniques such as 100 -foot distance buffers and landscape screening would be expected. Transportation While the existence of I -81, Exit 302, is a strong asset to the areas' transportation network, the actual configuration of the interchange and its close proximity of Buckton Road is not conducive to accommodating future traffic demands. In order for the interchange to operate efficiently and effectively in the future, it is essential to migrate the existing intersection of Reliance and Buckton Roads further east, creating a greater separation distance from the I -81 northbound on /off ramps. Increasing this separation distance will avoid significant degradation of the interchange similar to what has occurred at Exit 307 in Stephens City. In rapidly growing areas, as noted in the Foresight Middletown plan, controlling and coordinating the number, design and location of new access points to major roadways is critical to maintaining the safety and capacity of the road system as traffic volumes increase. Accordingly, access to Reliance Road should be managed and limited. The plan calls for limiting Reliance Road access to three points: a managed access entrance point in the vicinity of Confidence Lane, and two appropriately spaced roundabout or signalized intersections. The initial access point onto Reliance Road would be established with the relocation of Buckton Road. A second access point onto Reliance Road would be established with the relocation of Huttle Road, to create a single intersection on Reliance Road for relocated Huttle Road and a new road servicing the southern land area. Reliance Road Area Land Use Plan Adopted December 14, 2011 APPENDIX I - AREA PLANS These three Reliance Road access points would facilitate traffic movement to /from Reliance Road to the various future land uses to the north and south. It may also be appropriate to utilize a roundabout at the relocated Buckton Road intersection with Reliance Road as a means to define where the developed portion of Reliance Road ends and the rural land uses of the County begin. A similar technique was suggested by the Foresight Middletown plan as a means to create an entrance to the developed area. Finally, the Foresight Middletown plan calls for Reliance Road within the Town limits to be a boulevard with a landscaped median; the Reliance Road Area Land Use Plan carries this design concept forward east of the interstate. Consistent application of Comprehensive Plan goals to achieve an acceptable level of service on area roads and overall transportation network, level of service C or better, should be promoted. Further, efforts should be made to ensure that additional degradation of the transportation beyond an acceptable level of service shall be avoided. Consideration of future development applications within the study area should only occur when an acceptable level of service has been achieved and key elements and connections identified in this plan have been provided. Water and Sewer The Town recently completed an upgrade to its wastewater treatment facility which enables it to treat upwards of 400,000 gpd. Reflective of the slowing economy and the Town's limited water availability, the wastewater facility is currently operating at less than 30 percent capacity; the facility is available to service future wastewater demands. Existing limitations in water availability and the conveyance lines under the interstate may hinder development in the near future. As the Town secures additional water availability, upgrades to the conveyance system could easily be undertaken. Reflective of current water availability, the Town is positioned to dedicate up to 18,000 gpd of water to development on the east side of I -81. This available water resource could facilitate an initial expansion of the commercial land uses to include a hotel, expanded gasoline service station /convenience center, and a restaurant. Any additional commercial uses would certainly warrant additional water resources. Development of the technology park land uses will be limited until additional water resources are identified and available. Technology uses that require limited water resources would certainly be more desirable initially, until the expanded water supply has been secured and accessible.

Ruddy, AICP Deputy Director � McCann - Slaughter Properties - Discussion A Draft Amendment to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, Appendix I — Area Plans, The Northeast Frederick Land Use Plan DATE: June 16, 2014 This Draft Amendment to the Northeast Frederick Land Use Plan (NELUP), an Area Plan contained within Appendix I of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, is presented to the Board of Supervisors as a discussion item. Ultimately, staff will be seeking direction from the Board of Supervisors to move the draft amendment through the public hearing process. The McCann - Slaughter Properties The McCann Slaughter parcels contain approximately 160 acres, near the intersection ofMartinsburg Pike and Old Charlestown Road, on both sides of McCann Road, and adjacent to the CSX Railroad. The properties are collectively designated in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan for various types ofland uses, including Developmentally Sensitive Areas and hidustrial. Future Route 37 traverses parcel 44- A-25B and the properties are located within the Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). Background 2 , At their November 13, !013 meeting, the Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution directing staff to undertake a land use study to evaluate the future land use of the McCann - Slaughter properties, and surrounding area, near the intersection of Martinsburg Pike (Route 11) and Old Charlestown Road (Route 761). The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC), at their December meeting, initiated the review of this request. The review of this item continued in 2014 and involved the Historic Resources Advisory Board (HRAB) who invited interested groups to participate in their meetings. The HRAB recommended that the land use designation remain as a DSA at this time. Their recommendation is included as an attachment to this item. 107 North Kent Street, Suite 202 - Winchester, Virginia 22601 -5000 Ultimately, the CPPC recommended the following balanced approach as an amendment to the Northeast Land Use Plan (notwithstanding the recommendations of the HRAB): • The recommendations of the HRAB. • Protection of the environmental features of the site. • Preservation of those areas identified with DSA's and development limited to those areas to the south of the DSA's and south of McCann's Road. • Utilizing McCann's Road and other historical features, such as Milburn Road, as features to be protected and potentially used in a manner that promotes their historical context (an extension of the historical trail system in the area). • An O.M. (Mixed Use Office /Industrial) land use designation. • If an alternatiand use designation is deemed to be appropriate, access to be provided via a new north south road that would generally be parallel to the west side of the existing railroad. This road would connect into proposed development to the south. No access would be permitted to McCann's Lane for vehicular access to Martinsburg Pike or Milburn Road, The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC) felt strongly that an approach that balanced the various sources and land uses was appropriate. To that end, additional efforts were made to draft an amendment that was as thoughtful as possible when balancing the resources and land uses. Two members of the CPPC met with two members of the HRAB to discuss additional language that has ultimately been included in the draft amendment. This additional language has been shared with the CPPC and HRAB. The attached language is offered as a potential addition to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, Appendix I — The Northeast Land Use Plan. The proposed addition would be inserted into Appendix I of the Plan within the Northeast Land Use Plan, immediately following the existing maps. se Staff has also provided a summary of the CPPC and HRAB committee reviews to date. Please also find attached a copy of the Board approved resolution, a location map which depicts the long range land use for the area the current Northeast Land Us Plan, and excerpts from the previous Northeast Land Use Plan. ' The Planning Commission discussed the McCann- Slaughter properties at their meeting on May 21, 2014. There was discussion regarding McCann's Road and the intent for it to be a total buffer corridor of 50 feet, with 25 -foot on each side measured from the centerline. In addition, the intention was for McCann's Road to remain as an existing gravel road within a prescriptive easement with no road improvements. The idea was to essentially preserve McCann's Road in its existing condition and for it to be used as a pedestrian/bicycle trail. Members of the Commission stated this property has had a considerable amount of discussion between all of the stake holders including the CPPC, S, the HRAB, and environmental representatives. They believed this approach was an interesting concept because of the many geographical, environmental, and historical aspects of the property, many of which have competing interests. It was believed the stakeholders had achieved a reasonably balanced approach for the use of the land, preserving key elements while allowing the appropriate form of development to go forward as well. (Note: Commissioner Oates was absent from the meeting.) Please contact me if you have any further questions. MTR/pd/rsa Attachments 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN APPENDIX I — AREA PLANS NORTHEAST FREDERICK LAND USE PLAN MCCANN-SLAUGHTER AMENDMENT (DRAFT MAY 21, 2014) The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC), at their April 14, 2014 meeting, recommended that the following amendment be incorporated into the Northeast Land Use Plan: The CPPC proposed the following balanced approach as an amendment to the Northeast Land Use Plan for the McCann - Slaughter properties located near the intersection of Martinsburg Pike (Route 11) and Old Charlestown Road (Route 761). This location has historically been identified as a Developmentally Sensitive Area (DSA) due to the environmental and historical features on and around the site, most notably Stephenson's Depot. • Protection of the environmental features of the site. • Preservation of those areas identified with DSA's and development limited to those areas to the south of the DSA's and south of McCann's Road. • Utilizing McCann's Road and other historical features, such as Milburn Road, as features to be protected and potentially used in a manner that promotes their historical context (an extension of the historical trail system in the area). • An O.M. (Mixed Use Office /Industrial) land use designation. • Access to be provided via a new north south road that would generally be parallel to the west side of the existing railroad. This road would connect into proposed development to the south. No access would be permitted to McCann's Lane for vehicular access to Martinsburg Pike or Milburn Road. Subsequently, the proposal was further evaluated to determine if other elements could be incorporated into the proposed amendment that would further ensure the environmental, historical, and development resources were protected, promoted, and sensitively integrated together in this balanced amendment to the Northeast Land Use Plan. To that end, the following items should be addressed with the future development of this area. • A buffer adjacent to McCann's lane that is approximately 50' in width (25' from the centerline in each direction). Contained within this area; native landscape plantings and preservation of the existing hedgerows aimed at preserving this resource and its character, interpreting the historical landscape, and buffering the future development. • A transitional buffer between the existing floodplain and future land uses that promotes environmental best management practices and buffers the historical DSA from the future land uses (landscaping, building height transitions, view sheds). This buffer may include areas of the identified environmental resources. • The ability to include a small area of neighborhood commercial land use in support of the proposed OM land use. This would be located in the northern portion of the OM land use adjacent to the future road. • An interpretive trail head /parking area in the northern portion of this area adjacent to the proposed road could be incorporated into the design of the project, potentially in conjunction with a small area of neighborhood commercial. The interpretation may be reflective of the environmental and historical resources of the site and area. • The CPPC recommended the OM land use designation extends to the center of the stream. (A subsequent evaluation of this indicated it would be more appropriate to have the edge of the ultimate floodplain be the common boundary as a floodplain is, by definition in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, an identified Developmentally Sensitive Area). The location and design of the road should be sensitive to the environmental and historical resources and should have minimal impact. Historical signage consistent with currently used signage should be provided. • Historically relevant features, such as split rail fences, should be considered as a feature of the future development. But care should be taken to ensure the character of the resource isn't changed. Appropriate traffic controls should be provided on McCann's Lane to ensure that it is used only for pedestrian and bicycle users. In general, balance was maintained as the overarching theme of the discussion of the CPPC, and subsequently, the discussion of the ad -hoc CPPC /HRAB group. IN �.

CPPC December 16, 2013 Meeting The CPPC discussed this request and proposed the study be coordinated with the HRAB, given the historical context of the Developmentally Sensitive Areas (DSA's) in this area. It is believed that the HRAB would be able to provide the appropriate guidance and input on the land use in this area from a historical perspective. Notwithstanding the historical background associated with Stephenson's Depot, the site also contains a significant amount of environmental features that are protected within the DSA designation. The floodplain and its associated issues were discussed. The location of the environmental features also creates a barrier to Martinsburg Pike, Route 11, and Old Charlestown Road. The Applicant's representative presented a sketch of the proposed layout for a potential commercial /industrial development with access being provided from the north and from the south via a new north /south road connecting with adjacent projects and minimizing the impact on the Milburn Road corridor and McCann's Road. An O.M. land use designation was proposed by the Applicant's representative as being the most acceptable land use designation along with recognition that those DSA's identified on the site could be incorporated into the land use plan. Any update to the Northeast Land Use Plan should consider the following points as the basis for the narrative: • The recommendations of the HRAB. • Protection of the environmental features of the site. • Preservation of those areas identified with DSA's and development limited to those areas to the south of the DSA's and south of McCann's Road. • Utilizing McCann's Road and other historical features, such as Milburn Road, as features to be protected and potentially used in a manner that promotes their historical context (an extension of the historical trail system in the area). • An O.M. (Mixed Use Office /Industrial) land use designation (if appropriate). The CPPC approached this as an amendment to the Northeast Land Use Plan. It was recognized that the Northeast Land Use Plan is a series of four detailed land use maps that do not contain a descriptive narrative. The CPPC felt that if the land use were to change in this location, it should be accompanied by a descriptive narrative that is clear on what the future land uses should be, where they should be, and that any performance conditions, such as areas of preservation and methods of access, should be stated. The CPPC were very eager to receive the recommendations of the HRAB before they finalized their recommendations for a change in the land use. In addition, the CPPC wanted to see some of the points discussed at their December meeting listed in bullet form to provide a summary of the potential The CPPC also identified several approaches to update the Northeast Land Use Plan for this area; l ) updating the four land use maps, 2) updating the four land use maps and adding a narrative specific to this proposed change, and 3) updating the four land use maps and reinstating text describing the Northeast Land Use Plan as a whole. The CPPC's initial preference was option 2. Recent proposed amendments to the North East Land Use Plan could be consolidated into this update. HRAB December 17, 2013 Meeting Summary The Historic Resources Advisory Board (HRAB) has been asked to provide a comment pertaining to a requested Comprehensive Plan Amendment for the McCann - Slaughter property. The Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley published by the National Park Service identifies these properties as core battlefield area for the Battle of Third Winchester (Opequon) with retained integrity. The Applicant's representative presented a sketch of the proposed layout for a potential industrial park. The HRAB questioned if the requested industrial park could be laid out in a sensitive way, preserving the viewsheds and the significant portions of the property. The location of the existing historic markers was also considered and the impact the land use change would have on the viewsheds associated with the markers. The HRAB also inquired if the use of tax credits and the preservation of the property would be worth as much as the potential industrial land. The Applicant responded that it would not. After further discussion, the HRAB questioned why the DSA needed to be removed. The DSA was originally created and shown on this property because of its historic nature and the HRAB wanted to know what had changed and why the Board should consider a change in land use. The HRAB was concerned with the removal of the DSA because this is the last bit of core battlefield within this area. The battlefield areas keep being eroded, first with the rezoning of Stephenson's Village and then Graystone. The group also discussed the recently adopted 2030 Comprehensive Plan and the fact that one goal was to preserve battlefield areas. There are policies in place that support the preservation of core battlefield areas. The HRAB also wanted comments from the Shenandoah Valley Battlefield Foundation regarding the scale of the project and the impact it would have; it was rested that the foundation be invited to the next HRAB meeting. After the discussion, the HRAB requested that the Applicant consider retaining DSA on the most significant portions of the property and consider office land use on the balance. The HRAB ultimately was comfortable with the requested land (low impact/sensitive industrial) use change so long as the discussed trail network was included and the most significant part of the battlefield remains in DSA. The HRAB then requested to see the text that is formulated by the CPPC that will be forwarded to the Board of Supervisors for their review. HRAB February 17, 2014 Meeting Summary The HRAB further discussed the discussions to date of The Comprehensive Plans and Programs Committee (CPPC) who discussed this amendment at their January and February meetings. The recommendations of the HRAB were summarized in the comment letter provided by the HRAB and attached, dated March 10, 2014. The HRAB recommendation (02/18/14). Historic Resources Advisory Board Concerns (Please see the letter provided by the HRAB in the attachments to this agenda). The Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley published by the National Park Service identifies these properties as core battlefield area for the Battle of Second Winchester and the Battle of Third Winchester (Opequon), with retained integrity. After reviewing this information and the applicant's materials the Historic Resource Advisory Board (HRAB) recommended denial of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment for the McCann Slaughter Properties. The HRAB stated that the Historic Chapter of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan supports the preservation of the County's battlefield. Specifically, the plan states the following: "As commercial and residential developments continue to locate and expand in Frederick County, there is a need for balance to maintain the historic integrity, both structurally and scenically, between surviving historic resources and landscapes and new development. This balance can be achieved by recognizing both the current development needs of the community and the historic and rural character of Frederick County's past ". The HRAB also felt that the Developmentally Sensitive Designation was placed over this area because of the historic nature of the area and that there wasn't sufficient evidence presented to the committee that justified support for removing the designation.. Also, at the HRAB's February 2014 meeting a representative from the Shenandoah Valley Battlefield Foundation (SVBF) stated that the foundation has expressed interest in preserving the site and that additional materials may be available that provides more detail regarding the historic importance of this site. The HRAB stated that should additional information regarding the history on the site be made available, the Board could revisit the subj ect. CPPC April 14, 2014 Meeting The CPPC looked to complete their evaluation of a land use study for the McCann- Slaughter properties, and surrounding area, near the intersection of Martinsburg Pike (Route 11) and Old Charlestown Road (Route 761). Previously, the CPPC discussed this request and identified several approaches to update the Northeast Land Use Plan for this area. The CPPC proposed the study be coordinated with the HRAB. The HRAB has made a recommendation on this request. Mr. Ruddy presented an overview of this request, an update on the status of this request, and described the input received previously from the CPPC and more recently from the HRAB. The HRAB had recommended denial of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment for the McCann Slaughter Properties. The HRAB stated that should additional information regarding the history on the site be made available, the Board could revisit the subject. Mr. Ruddy further discussed the options available to the CPPC as listed in the agenda. 1) Support the recommendation of the HRAB. 2) Propose the approach discussed by the CPPC at your earlier meetings, prior to the input of and notwithstanding the recommendations of the HRAB, where the CPPC described the following scenario: • The recommendations of the HRAB. • Protection of the environmental features of the site. • Preservation of those areas identified with DSA's and development limited to those areas to the south of the DSA's and south of McCann's Road. • Utilizing McCann's Road and other historical features, such as Milburn Road, as features to be protected and potentially used in a manner that promotes their historical context (an extension of the historical trail system in the area). • An O.M. (Mixed Use Office /Industrial) land use designation. • If an alternative land use designation is deemed to be appropriate, access to be provided via a new north south road that would generally be parallel to the west side of the existing railroad. This road would connect into proposed development to the south. No access would be permitted to McCann's Lane for vehicular access to Martinsburg Pike or Milburn Road. 3) An alternative recommendation to the above of the CPPC_ Members of the CPPC discussed the features of the site in more detail and reflected on the recommendation of the HRAB_ The Applicant's representative, Mr. Oates, described the environmental features of the site, the discussion of the HRAB, and the Applicant's desired future land use and potential development plan. Balance was the overarching theme of the discussion of the CPPC. It was recognized that balance was emphasized in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and in an earlier planning document, the Battlefield Network Plan, which also sought to achieve a balanced approach to future land uses that were respectful of the identified DSA's associated with Stephenson's Depot. In making their recommendation, the CPPC expressed their desire to achieve a balance between the DSA designation, the recommendation of the HRAB, and the other land uses envisioned by the property owner, the OM (Office - Manufacturing) land use designation. The CPPC recommended that the scenario described as item 2 in the agenda package be forwarded to the Planning Commission for their consideration. The motion was made by Jim Golladay, seconded by Kay Dawson, and unanimously approved by the CPPC members present. Following the recommendation, the CPPC recognized the importance of the openness of the planning process. A suggestion was made to have members of the CPPC meet with members of the HRAB to further evaluate the details of the proposal to ensure the historic elements of the property were protected and any areas of development were as sensitive to the historic resources as possible. � o n'.,• L I Y Y M Work with the Middlesex Artillery group to create a battlefield park site at Star Fort. Use Star Fort as a demonstration project to increase public awareness of the battle- field effort. Work with owners of Fort Collier, Fort Milroy and other forts around Winchester to find ways to preserve additional forts. Work closely with the Middlesex Artillery to prepare a resource management plan for Star Fort as soon as possible. Provide pedestrian trails and bikeways connecting the different forts. Work closely with developers of surrounding land to provide support for the fort sites. Stephenson Depot During the Second Battle of Winchester, Stephenson Depot was the site of the most critical action. The Confederates used the railroad embankment south of the Depot and the ridge behind it as artillery em- placements that were assaulted unsuccessfully by the Union troops several times. While Juba] Early's forces attacked the Union troops positioned at Star Fort, Fort Milroy, West Lunette, and Fort Collier on June 14 with great success, Confederate General Richard S. Ewell assumed that General Robert Milroy would attempt a retreat during the night. Therefore, he ordered General Edward Johnson to prevent the Union escape by cut- ting off the Charles Town Road. At about 10:00 p.m., Johnson marched with two brigades and eight guns north to Berryville Pike and west to Jordan Springs Road, where he turned north toward Stephen - son's Depot. At approximately 1:00 a.m. on the morning of June 15th, Milroy and his officers decided to abandon Fort Milroy and Star Fort and try to IN make their way to Harpers Ferry on the old Charles Town Road. After spiking all of their cannons and destroying their carriages, the Union soldiers massed in the low ground between the two forts and then moved down the railroad and the Valley Pike towards the Charles Tnum crossroa just SOULI1 01 Stephenson's Depot. At about dawn on the morning of the 15th, Johnson's skirmishers encountered the head of the re- treating Union column near the intersection of the Valley Pike and old Charles Town Road, Johnson deployed his regiments along Milburn Road and placed one artillery piece directly on the Charles Town Road railroad bridge and one beside it. Johnson deployed his remaining artillery Milburn Road at Ste pieces on the high ground east of Stephenson Depot Milburn Road. Milroy set up his column to the right of the Valley Pike and prepared to fight his way through. The Union forces made several desperate but uncoordinated attacks against st the railroad bridge and were unable to make a dent in the line of the Confederates, who were now being steadily reinforced. The Confederate Stonewall brigade advanced to cut off the Valley Pike. Seeing no way out, Union regiments hoisted the white flag of surrender. Between 2,500 and 3,000 Union soldiers surrendered. Mil- roy and his staff manage . d to escape to the west. The Union losses from June 12 to June 15 were: 95 killed, 373 wounded, and 3,974 missing and captured out of a total force of ap- proximately 7,000. The Confederate losses paled in comparison. They had 47 killed, 219 wounded, and 3 missing. The Second Battle of Winchester was part of General Lee's second In- vasion of the North. The Confederate forces defeated and nearly de- stroyed an entire Union division under General Robert Milroy at Stephenson's Depot. The Confederate victory at Second Winchester offered high hopes for the success of Lee's second invasion of the North that culminated with the Battle of Gettysburg. The Second Bat- tle of Winchester also marked General Ewell's first engagement as a 12 r J Corps Commander. His tactical successes at Second Winchester had influence on his tactics at Gettysburg two weeks later. "r Despite intensive development along Route 1 l North, the Stephenson Depot Battlefield remains pristine and rural in character. The modern railroad bridge and embankment are located today in the same loca- tion where they existed during the battle. Milburn Road connects Ste- phenson Depot to the Third Winchester sites along a route that looks today much as it did during the Civil War. Strategies For Stephenson Depot III Work with the landowner to preserve key areas while allowing some development. Provide planning assistance. New more intensive uses in the core area should provide means to protect viewsheds as a part of their development plans. Use Milburn Road as a primary travel connection between Stephenson Depot and Third Winchester. Work with land owners to preserve views along Milburn Road us- ing buffers, vegetation and easements. Old Town Winchester The City of Winchester was chartered by act of the Virginia Assembly in 1752, fourteen years after Frederick County was chartered. During the Civil War, no eastern city was more critically involved than Win- chester, with the city changing hands over 70 times during the war. At the time of the Civil War, the population of Winchester was about 4,000, including 706 slaves and 665 free African Americans. According to war -time diarist, Julia Chase, the Confederates reached Winchester on November 8, 1861 and the Union army initially arrived on March 14, l 862. From this point on, Winchester was primarily in Union hands. Although there were a large number of unionists within the town, relations between the townspeople and the Union occupiers were not good. War, in During the Civil a ,many buildings Old Town Winchester served O as field hospitals for both sides, including the County Courthouse and the Taylor Hotel (McCrorys building). As early as March, 1862, the County Courthouse was filled to capacity with wounded. Confederate General Thomas J.
