Members Present: Rhoda Kriz, Harold Lehman, Martin Killingbeck, Virginia McClure, James Lockard, Elizabeth Fravel, Felicia Hart, Patricia Gochenour (Planning Commission Liaison) Members Absent: Jamie Lupton, Maral Kalbian (Consultant) Staff: Candice Perkins, Planner II and Kevin Henry, Planning Technician Applicants/Presenters: N/A Agenda Items: August 2005 Minutes, Historic Plaque Program Other: None The meeting began at 7:30 pm. The first agenda item was the August 2005 minutes, which were approved. The second item was a discussion on the Frederick County Historic Plaque Program. The members stated that the property owners that have been invited to participate in the program in the past may have the idea that the plaque will give Frederick County power over their property. The HRAB needs to make sure that people are not afraid of the program and understand that it is only an acknowledgement that their property is historic. During the future plaque program process, a press release through the local news papers and radio should be pursued to inform the public. The HRAB stated that they would like to see a draft letter for the applicants at the October meeting. The HRAB then relocated to the Planning Department Conference Room for an overview of the Rural Landmark maps (quad maps) that are located in the department. The meeting was adjourned at 8:45pm Item # 2 Willow Run Rezoning Proposal The Historic Resources Advisory Board has been requested to review and provide comment on the Willow Run rezoning proposal, which has been submitted by Greenway Engineering. The proposal seeks to rezone 359.97 acres from the RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District to the RP (Residential Performance) and B2 (Business General) Zoning Districts. The property is located east of Route 37 and Merriman's Lane (Route 621), North of Cedar Creek Grade (Route 622) and west of the City of Winchester Corporate Limits (see location map). The Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valkey published by the National Park Service identifies a portion of the Willow Run rezoning site as being included in the study area and core area for the Second Battle of Winchester. The study identifies the property as having retained its integrity. The Rural Landmarks Survey Report for Frederick County Virginia identifies three structures as being located on the property. These properties are: • The 740 House (#34-89) — Willow Grove • The 750 House (434-90) — Baker, Jacob House • Penbrook-Cove Farm (434-1236) There are also three sites that are located within close proximity to Willow Run project, two of which are identified a potentially significant. These properties are: • The Stuart Brown House (#34-1239) • Homespun (#34-180) — potentially eligible for state and national register of historic places • House Route 622 (#34-1237) While included in this rezoning application, the ownership of the 740 and 750 houses will be maintained by the current property owners and at this time are not planned for demolition. Please find attached for your information: a map of the site; the impact analysis; and, the proffer statement provided by the applicant. Representatives of the applicant will be available at the HRAB meeting to provide additional information on the proposed rezoning. Staff will be seeking comments from the HRAB on the historical elements possibly impacted by proposed development. The comments will be included in the rezoning application package for the Willow Run rezoning proposal when it is submitted.

Wyatt, AICP Greenway Engineering 151 Windy Hill Lane Winchester, VA 22602 540-662-4185 Greenway Engineering September 1, 2005 Willow Run Rezoning WILLOW RUN REZONING INTRODUCTION This report has been prepared for the purpose of assessing the impact on Fredrick County by the proffered rezoning of eight contiguous parcels comprising 359.97± acres, owned by 740 LLC, 750 LLC, Willow Grove L.C., Greystone Properties, LLC, and Miller and Smith at Willow Run, L.L.C. The subject properties are located adjacent to and east of Route 37, adjacent to and east of Merriman's Lane (Route 621), adjacent to and south of the Winchester and Western Railroad, north of Cedar Creek Grade, and adjacent to and south and west of the City of Winchester Corporate Limits. The current zoning of the parcels comprising the 359.97± -acre tract is RA, Rural Areas District. The property owners propose to rezone these parcels to establish 347.77± acres of RP, Residential Performance District and 12.20± acres of B2, Business General District. Please refer to the attached Willow Run Generalized Development Plan Exhibit. Basic information Location: East of Route 37 and Merriman's Lane (Route 621), North of Cedar Creek Grade (Route 622), South and West of the City of Winchester Corporate Limits Magisterial District: Shawnee Property 1D Numbers: 53-((A))-90, 53-((A))-91, 53-((A))-92, 53 -((A)) - 92A, 53 -((A)) -92B, 53-((A))-94, 53-((3))-A, 63- ((A)) -2A Current Zoning: RA, Rural Areas District Current Use: Agricultural and Residential uses Proposed Use: Residential, Service Commercial and Office Proposed Zoning: RP, Residential Performance Dist. (347.77± acres) B2, Business General District (12.20± acres) Total rezoning area: 359.97± -acres I Greenway Engineering September 1, 2005 Willow Run Rezoning H. HISTORICAL SITES AND STRUCTURES The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey identifies three structures on the 359.97± -acre site as the 740 House (#34-89), the 750 House (434-90) and the Marshal House (#34-1236), although none of these structures are deemed potentially significant. Two sites within close proximity are identified as potentially significant, which include the Stuart Brown House (#34-1239) and Homespun (#34-180). The Homespun site is further identified as being potentially eligible for the state and national register of historic places. Furthermore, the southwestern portion of the 2nd Winchester Core Battlefield area is located in the northeastern portion of the subject site. The Stuart Brown House (#34-1239) is located on the Jova Properties, LCC parcel adjacent to the Route 37 interchange area at Cedar Creek Grade. This structure is currently utilized as a residential rental property, and is not visible from the Willow Run Community. The Homespun site (#34-180) is located across Cedar Creek Grade from the southeastern portion of the site. An adaptive reuse of the Homespun site has been complete, which converted the historic structure into a commercial land use. Additionally, the Harvest Ridge Residential Community is being developed adjacent to and south of the Homespun site. The Homespun site has a mature row of evergreens along its frontage, which adequately screens the structure from Cedar Creek Grade. The Minor Spine Road intersection at Cedar Creek Grade is designed to align with the commercial entrance serving the Homespun site; therefore, no additional impacts are anticipated between the Willow Run Community and the Homespun site. In August 2004, the Shenandoah Valley Battlefield Foundation Executive Committee (SVBF) was asked to consider the potential for acquiring the potion of the 2nd Winchester Core Battlefield area that is located on the subject site. The SVBF Executive Committee provided a letter to Greenway Engineering dated August 16, 2004, which stated that there was not a desire to acquire this area due to the significant amount of lost integrity of the overall core battlefield area resulting from the development of the Meadow Branch Community. Therefore, the development of the Willow Run Community will not have a negative impact to existing historic structures and core battlefield area. I. IMPACT ON COMMUNITY FACILITIES The Frederick County Capital Facilities Fiscal Impact Model has been prepared for the proposed rezoning of the 359.97± -acre site based on a proffered maximum square footage of 110,000 square feet of commercial and office land use and 850 residential units. The results of the Capital Facilities Fiscal Impact Model identify that the build out of the Willow Run community will create a negative fiscal impact of $7,692.00 for each residential unit. The Applicants' proffer statement provides a monetary contribution to Frederick County in the amount of $7,692.00 for each non -age restricted residential unit to mitigate the fiscal impacts to public schools, parks and recreation and fire and rescue services.

Ackerly III Dear Evan: Joseph E. C.II hoa This is in response to your letter of 9 August 2004 concerning the vmcenr a cdlahon Shenandoah Valley Battlefields Foundation's interest in the remnant of Faye C Cooper core area land that is part of the First Winchester battlefield in Frederic John D_ Crim 11 County_ This property is part of the Willow Run Mixed Use Development proposal. As we discussed, the federal funds the Shenandoah Valley Battlefields Foundation receives from congress may not be used to purchase land on the First Winchester battlefield. (The battlefield was not included in the 1996 enabling legislation for the National Historic District, hence we are not able to use our appropriated funds to purchase land there.) Because of this the Battlefields Foundation does not funds for the 1WAR property in question nor has it had plans to acquire this land. While we do not like to see any battlefield land compromised, given the lack of context and the relatively small size of this fragment of First Winchester the Battlefields Foundation would not pursue other funding sources for land acquisition. We hope that if the development project proceeds and Jubal Early Drive is extended as planned that due J... A. D-4 consideration be given to both the historic and environmental issues on 8—ley H. Fling this property. Kay D Fye Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and providing the 5—M. Hill opportunity to consider the possible impacts to the land. Please contact me Ri,hord R.

The board concurs with the Department staff that this property appears to be eligible at the local level for significance in the area of architecture. The staff of the Department of Historic Resources does not plan to prepare the national register nomination which is the required next step in the registration process, as our work program is fully scheduled for the remainder of the year and we normally limit our preparation of nominations to those properties for which the Department is accepting an easement. If you are interested in pursuing registration, I would recommend hiring a consultant or preparing the nomination yourself. I would be happy to assist someone with the preparation and upon request will send you a list of consultants and materials necessary to complete the nomination. Thank you for your interest in the register program. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding the registration process, please do not hesitate to contact me.
