ITEM #1
WINCHESTER EQUIPMENT COMPANY REZONING REQUEST
The Historic Resources Advisory Board (HRAB) has been asked to provide a review agency
comment pertaining to a rezoning proposal from Winchester Equipment Company, The Winchester
Equipment Company proposal is to rezone 23.39 acres of land within two parcels from RA, Rural
Areas District to B3, Industrial Transition District. The B-3 Industrial Transition District is intended
to provide for heavy commercial activities involving large scale marketing or wholesaling.
The two parcels that are proposed to be rezoned are located in the northwestern corner of the defined
core area for Phase 6 of the Second Battle of Winchester. The defined core area of this phase of the
battle is taken from the 1992 National Park Service Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah
Valley of Virginia. Staff has included a map of Second Winchester from the National Park Service
Study which identifies the core area of Phase 6 in red and the location of the two parcels in blue.
Furthermore, the associated text for Phase 6 from the National Park Service Study has been included
for review by the HRAB.
The applicant's Impact Analysis Statement provides an overview of this phase of Second Winchester
and describes the relationship ofthe acreage proposed for rezoning to the June 14, 1863 battle. The
applicant has prepared a map which identifies the approximate location of artillery batteries, troop
movements, and West Fort. The applicant's Impact Analysis Statement also identifies several
structures from the Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey that are within a one -mile radius of
the acreage proposed for rezoning The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey identifies four
ofthese structures on the List of Potentially Significant Properties. This listing includes #34-70 Bond
House; 434-450 Armel School; 434-546 Greystone Farm; and 434-1410 Fruit Hill Farm. All ofthese
structures are located a minimum of 2,000 feet from the acreage proposed for rezoning and are not
visible from the site.
The applicant has prepared a proffer statement for this rezoning application. Item 43 in the proffer
statement provides for the dedication of a linear Civil War Interpretive Site Easement which contains
13,000 square feet and follows the southern property line of parcel 42-A-188. This easement
provides a viewshed opportunity (particularly in the southwestern corner of the property) for a
significant portion of Second Winchester that is not available from the public right-of-way due to site
topography. The applicant's proffer statement provides for the dedication of this easement only to
a recognized Civil War interest group. Furthermore, the proffer statement requires the recognized
Civil War interest group to assume the costs necessary to establish the easement and make
improvements within the easement.
Item #I in the proffer statement identifies the land uses that would only be allowed to develop on the
acreage proposed for rezoning. The applicant has identified the potential permitted uses utilizing the
Standard Industrial Classification method that is applied in the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance.
To assist the HRAB in determining the proffered uses, staff has provided a summary of the uses that
could be developed on this acreage should a rezoning be approved:
SIC 50 Wholesale Trade of Durable Goods including motor vehicle and motor
vehicle parts and supplies; furniture and home furnishings; lumber and other
construction materials; professional and commercial equipment and supplies;
metals and minerals, except petroleum; electrical goods; hardware, plumbing,
and heating equipment and supplies; machinery equipment and supplies; and
miscellaneous durable goods.
SIC 51 Wholesale Trade of Nondurable Goods including paper and paper supplies;
drugs and druggists' sundries; apparel piece goods and notions; groceries and
related products; farm product raw materials; chemicals and allied products;
petroleum and petroleum products; beer, wine, and distilled alcoholic
beverages; and miscellaneous durable goods.
• SIC 52 Retail Sales of Building Materials, Hardware, Garden Supplies, and
Mobile Home Dealers.
• SIC 5599 Automotive Dealers Not Elsewhere Classified (utility trailers).
• SIC 7353 Heavy Construction Equipment Rental and Leasing.
• SIC 7359 Equipment Rental and Leasing Not Elsewhere Classified (tool rental).
• SIC 7519 Utility Trailer and Recreational Vehicle Rental.
• SIC 7699 Repair Shops and Related Services Not Elsewhere Classified.
Staff has taken several digital images of the acreage proposed for rezoning which will be presented
during the HRAB meeting. These images depict the overall site and topography; the relationship of
this site to other properties within the 1992 National Park Service Study defined core battlefield area;
and the location of the proffered Civil War interpretive easement. Staff asks that the HRAB review
this information and provide a formal review agency comment which will be made part of the official
staff report for the rezoning application. This comment will be an item of information considered by
the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors regarding this proposal.

CIVIL WAR SITES IN THE SHENANDOAH VALLEY OF VIRGINIA
Gordon) marched toward Winchester on the Valley Pike
onjunction with Johnson's division on the Front Royal
Road. Late afternoon, Early's column reached the
outskirts of Kemstown and drove back the US skirmish
line encountered at Pritchard's Hill. US Orces retreated to
Cedar Creek Grade and briefly counterattacked, but Early
extended his line to the west, out -flanking successive
Union positions. US cavalry attacked several times up the
Valley Pike to ease pressure on the infantry. Eventually,
the Union force retreated north of Abrams Creek under
cover of the heavy guns from Bower's Hill and Fort
Milroy.
Phase Four. Milroy Withdraws into the Forts (13 June):
After dark Milroy concentrated his forces inside a triangle
defined by Fort Milroy, Star Fort, and West Fort
McReynolds' brigade reached Fort Milroy after marching
a round -about route from Berryville, harassed by Confed-
erate cavalry. Milroy's soldiers had fought well during the
previous afternoon, and he was confident that he could
withstand renewed Confederate assaults in the morning.
In the meantime, Ewell ordered his third division under
Maj. Gen. Robert E. Rodes to advance on Martinsburg via
:rryville to cut off Milroy's retreat in that direction.
Phase Five. Early's Flank March (14 June): At dawn of 14
June, one of Early's brigades (Gordon) swept forward to
capture Bower's Hill with little resistance. Johnson
extended his line to the right against very light opposition;
there was fitful skirmishing in the streets of Winchester.
Early and Ewell conferred on Bower's Hill and decided on
a flanking strategy. Gordon's brigade and two batteries
were left on Bower's Hill, while Early led his three other
brigades back to Cedar Creek Grade, west beyond Apple
Pie Ridge where it was out of view of US fortifications,
then north over Cloverdale Plantation to Walnut Grove.
His column was accompanied by 20 guns. While Early
made this march, Johnson advanced a line of skirmishers
on the right to occupy the Federals' attention. The CS
batteries on Bower's Hill opened up, touching off duel
with the Union guns in Fort Milroy. By mid-aftemoon,
Early's force had gained a position opposite West Fort on
Apple Pie Ridge. Eight guns were positioned on the
Brierly Farm northwest of the fort, while 12 guns were
-laced in an orchard southwest of the fort. By this time
.ne field had quieted, and the US forces believed that the
Confederates had been repulsed from Winchester.
Phase Six Attack on West Fort (14 June): About 1800
hours, Early's artillery opened fire on West Fort. The
twenty guns fired for 45 minutes, while Brig. Gen. Harry
T. Hays stealthily advanced his Louisiana brigade through
the corn and wheat fields at the hnep of Apple Piegle Ridge,
On command, the brigade rushed forward across 300
yards of open fields and swept upward into the works.
After a brief hand-to-hand struggle, US defenders aban-
doned the works, retreating to Fort Milroy. Hays was
supported in the attack by two brigades (Smith and
Avery). Early consolidated his line on West Fort Ridge,
but darkness prevented further gains. An artillery duel
continued until long after dark. After the battle, Ewell
christened West Fort Ridge as "Louisiana Heights" in
honor of Hays's brigade.
Phase Seven. Johnson's Flank March (14-15 June): Ewell
assumed that Milroy would retreat during the night and
ordered Johnson to prevent his escape by cutting the
Charles Town Road. About 2100 hours, Johnson (with
Steuart's and Williams's brigades and 8 guns) marched
north to Berryville Pike and west to Jordan Springs Road,
where he turned north toward Stephenson's Depot.
About midnight, the Stonewall brigade disengaged and
joined the rear of the column, leaving one brigade (Jones)
astride the Berryville Pike east of town.
Phase Eight US Withdrawal (14-15 June): After confer-
ring with his officers, Milroy made the decision to try to
"cut their way through" to Harpers Ferry on the old
Charles Town Road. All of the cannons were spiked and
their carriages destroyed. Shortly after midnight, the
Union soldiers left their works so quietly that Early's
Confederates did not know they were gone until morning.
The column massed in the low ground between Star Fort
and Fort Milroy, then moved down the railroad and the
Valley Pike toward the Charles Town crossroad, just south
of Stephenson's Depot.
Phase Nine. US Surrender at Stephenson's Depot (15
June): Near dawn, Johnson's skirmishers encountered the
head of Milroy's retreating column near the intersection of
the Valley Pike and old Charles Town road. Milroy faced
his column to the right on the pike and prepared to fight
his way out of a "murderous trap." Johnson deployed his
regiments along Milburn Road as they came up and
advanced to the railroad and placed two guns on either

The site contains frontage on Route 522. This provides the site with good access and
excellent visibility from an arterial highway_ The gently rolling topography of the site is
well-suited for commercial construction_ The development of a low intensive, retail -type
store which has a significant agricultural client base provides an acceptable extension
of the Albin Community Center_ A significant portion of sales at Winchester Equipment
Co. involves farm machinery. The location along the Route 522 corridor, near the
Route 37 By-pass, fits the Comprehensive Plan's concept of the "Idealized Interchange
Development Pattern". Commercial development of the site will facilitate the
construction of the major collector road as envisioned by the Comprehensive Plan. The
absence of public water and sewer service will limit the amount of commercial
development possible on this site, thus preserving a rural character to the commercial
development.
SECOND BATTLE
The Second Battle of Winchester took place on June 13-15, 1863, about two weeks
before the Battle of Gettysburg, PA. The battle began on the twelfth of June to the
south of Winchester around Middletown. Confederate Major General Richard S. Ewell's
Second Army Corps was moving toward Winchester from the south as part of General
Robert E. Lee's plan to advance across the Potomac River in order to "take the battle"
to the north. The Corps consisted of the divisions of Edward Johnson, Jubal A. Early,
and Robert E. Rhodes. At that time, Winchester was occupied by the Federals under
General Robert Milroy with the Second Division of the VIII Corps, approximately 6,900
men. Protecting the B&O Railroad was the primary objective of the Federal garrison at
Winchester. Milroy occupied three earthworks on ridges along the western edge of the
town; Fort Milroy, Star Fort and West Fort. West fort was located on the ridge south of
Route 522 and east of Route 37 approximately 3/ of a mile east of the property
proposed for rezoning.
Ewell's plan to take Winchester consisted mainly of sending Johnson's division to
Winchester by way of Front Royal Pike while sending Early's division to the west of the
town to flank the Union right. Ewell considered the high ground to the west of
Winchester to be the key to driving the Federals from the town.
Early used the ridges to the west of West Fort to conceal his movements. Two batteries
of guns were placed on the ridges. One battery was located to the northwest of West
Fort near Route 679 while the second battery was placed approximately one half mile
south of Route 679 along the ridge. The first battery was likely located on the ridge just
to the southwest of the site. The attacking infantry was located generally between the
two batteries of guns. On the evening of June 14, 1863, Early attacked West Fort
across what are today cornfields and orchards between Apple Pie Ridge and Route 37.
It is likely that a portion of the confederate infantry, led by General Harry Hays,
attacked West Fort from ground to the south of the site of the proposed rezoning. The
confederates overran West Fort. The union troops were either killed, captured or
escaped to Star Fort and Fort Milroy. Early the following morning, General Milroy
evacuated the two remaining forts with the intention of escaping under cover of
darkness to Harper's Ferry. Unfortunately for the Federals, Edward Johnson's troops

PROFFER STATEMENT
PARCEL ID 42 ((A)) 188 and 42((A)) 189
INTRODUCTION
The two subject parcels contain 23.39 acres combined. Currently all 23.39 acres are
zoned RA. All adjacent property is zoned RA with the exception of one lot (42-A-228)
that is located across Indian Hollow Road and zoned B2. The owner desires to rezone
the entire 23.39 acres from RA, Rural Areas District, to a B3, Industrial Transition
District, zoning. The intended purpose for the rezoning would be to allow the
Winchester Equipment Co. to relocate it's operation onto a lot which is larger than the
existing location allowing for more versatility in the layout of the facility.
The applicant recognizes that the site is adjacent to the Rural Community Center of
Albin, but outside the county Urban Development Area. Acknowledging the importance
of maintaining the rural character of the area, the owner is willing to proffer restrictions
on the types of commercial activities which can be developed under the proposed B3
zoning. See Proffer #1. •`
The owner recognizes that the site is nearby to land involved in the events of the
Second Battle of Winchester which occurred on June 24, 1863. Acknowledging the
importance of historic preservation, the owner is willing to proffer a limit on the use of
the subject property for communications facilities, specifically, communication towers
which exceed the height allowed in the B3 zone for structures, that is, 35 feet. See
Proffer #2. In addition, the owner is willing to proffer the reservation of a portion of the
property for use by Civil War interest groups for the creation of an interpretive site. The
owner recognizes that the location and configuration of the easement may be revised
to suit the needs said interest groups, and is willing to make adjustments to the
easement shown on Exhibit 3. Such adjustments must not negatively impact the
owner's use of the land. The owner agrees to depict the easement in all future site
development plans required to be submitted to the Frederick County Department of
Planning and Zoning. See Proffer #3.
As a provision of the rezoning, the owner is willing to proffer the reservation of land for
dedication to Frederick County for the construction of a certain roadway intended to
connect Route 522 to Route 50 as proposed in the 1998 Comprehensive Policy Plan.
Please refer to the "Route 37 West Land Use Plan" on page 6-41 of the 1998
Comprehensive Policy Plan. The alignment shown in the Comprehensive Plan passes
near to or through the subject parcels and intersects with Route 522 at the existing
signalized intersection of Route 522 and Route 679- The exact alignment of the
roadway is unknown, as is the timing for construction." Therefore, the owner reserves
the right to adjust the alignment of the 80' reserve strip from the location shown on
Exhibit 3. The owner agrees to depict the 80' reserve strip in all future site development
plans required to be submitted to Frederick County Department of Planning and
Zoning. See Proffer #4-

for the proposed development. The amount of solid waste generated by the
development can be estimated based on one pound per employee per day_ Using a
figure of 40 employees per acres, the estimated number of employees is 936. Tipping
fees are $35.00 per ton. Collection fees are $25.00 per ton. The annual cost projected
to meet waste disposal needs can be estimated by
cost = cost per ton of waste x tonnage
$90,250.00 = $50.00 x (9x936) x (1/2000) x 355
