Kent Street, Winchester, Virginia on February 20, 2024. PRESENT: Jason McDonald, Shawnee District; Cordell Watt, Gainesboro District; John Marker, Back Creek District Alternate; Harman Brumback, Back Creek; Patricia Scheulen-Ferrell, Gainesboro; John Jewell, BOS Liaison and Mark Sutphin, Virginia Co-Extension ABSENT: John Stelzl, Opequon District; and William Cline, Stonewall District. STAFF PRESENT: Mark Cheran, Zoning Administrator; Pam Deeter, Secretary. CALL TO ORDER The meeting was called to order by Mr. Cheran at 6:00 p.m. On a motion made by Mr. Marker and seconded by Mr. Harman, the minutes for the March 14, 2023, meeting were unanimously approved as presented. Mr. Cheran updated the Committee about a change in the agenda items and he also informed the Committee that next year 2025 is the renewal of all the Agricultural and Forestal Districts. Planning will have the application online if anyone is interested in coming into the Districts. Committee members were made aware that they will be contacted to see if they want to serve again on the Committee or if they know someone that wants to become a Committee member to contact their Board of Supervisors directly. Mr. Cheran came forward to present his report. Staff noted the first item is an addition to the South Timber Ridge District. This addition is 76.866+/- acres with a Property Identification Number 37-A- 8 and this will be 24 parcels that the property owner manages. Currently the District has 1,170.94 acres. If approved, the South Timber Ridge District would have a total of 1,247.84+/- acres. On a motion made by Mr. Marker approved the additional acreage of 76.866+/- (PIN 37-A-8) to the South Timber Ridge District and seconded by Mr. McDonald were unanimously approved. Mr. Cheran presented the second item being the removal from the South Frederick Agricultural & Forestal District. The District currently has 6,921.63 acres. 3 Staff noted that Mr. Charles and Robin Bentley requested to have 64.14+/- acreage removed from the District. Mr. Bentley provided a letter with the request. If approved, this would bring the South Frederick District to 6,857.49+/- acres. Mr. Cheran noted that under the Code of Virginia in1950 as amended provides property owners with the ability to request removal of land from an agricultural and forestal district through a process via the local governing body. Staff mentioned the reason why Mr. Bentley requested to be removed from the District. Mr. Bentley wants to create a family subdivision by giving his son a 2-acre parcel. Anytime a parcel is in Agricultural & Forestall District, there cannot be any subdivision of land. Mr. Bentley mentioned that after this is completed the remainder of the parcel will be going back into the District, but he will do the renewal in 2025. On a motion made by Mr. Harman to remove the 64.14+/- parcel from the South Frederick Agricultural & Forestal District with parcel (PIN 84-A-28A), and seconded by Mr. Marker, were unanimously approved. Mr. Cheran gave a presentation on the third item for another request to remove 71.21+/- acres (PIN 74-A-3) owned West Oaks Farm Market, LLC., (Joseph and Mary Snapp) from the South Frederick District. This District was established in 1980 and is renewed every five years. This particular parcel will be part of the Bartonsville Solar Farm. At the time of the CUP, for the Bartonsville Solar Farm it was undetermined which way the solar panel would be placed. Construction is going to begin, so the property needs to be removed from the district. There is still discussion on solar farms as to them being considered farms. If approved, the District would contain a total of 6,786.28+/- acreage. A Committee member asked, does the company own the property. Mr. Cheran replied that he wasn’t sure. On a motion made by Mr. Watt, to remove the 71.21+/- parcel from the South Frederick Agricultural & Forestal District with parcel (PIN 74-A-3), and seconded by Mr. Marker, was unanimously approved. Staff said the next item is not on the agenda, but since we are meeting here, and the paperwork has been turned in we will proceed. Mr. Jason McDonald requested the parcel (PIN 73-A-20) with 238.51+/- be included in the South Frederick Agricultural and Forestal District. Mr. McDonald already has his farm in this district, and he is just adding to the district. Staff noted the previous two items on the agenda was to remove parcels from that district and now we are adding to the District. On a motion made by Mr. Watt to include parcel (PIN 73-A-20) 238.51+/- acres to the South Frederick Agricultural & Forestal District and seconded by Mr. Marker, was unanimously approved. Meeting adjourned at 6:25. 4 Agricultural District Advisory Committee Agenda Item Detail Meeting Date: April 15, 2025 Agenda Section: Update of the 2025-2030 Agricultural and Forestal Districts Title: Update of the 2025-2030 Agricultural and Forestal Districts Attachments: ADAC04-15-25AlbinDistrict_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25ApplePieRidge_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25BackMountain_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25DoubleChurch_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25GreenSpring_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25Hayfield_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25LongCreekFarm_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25NorthFrederick_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25RedBud_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25Reliance_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25SouthFrederick_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25SouthTimberRidge_AgDistrict.pdf ADAC04-15-25WhiteHall_AgDistrict.pdf 5 AGRICULTURAL AND FORESTAL DISTRICT UPDATE Albin District Staff Report for the Agricultural District Advisory Committee Prepared: April 7, 2025 Staff Contact: Mark Cheran, Zoning Administrator Executive Summary: Meeting Schedule Agricultural District Advisory Committee (ADAC): Action: Pending Planning Commission: Action: Pending Board of Supervisors: Action: Pending General District Location This District is located within the Gainesboro Magisterial District and is generally located west of Route 37, and North and South of Route 522, near the Albin Rural Community Center. The District was updated in 2020. State Code Requirements & District History Chapter 43, Section 15.2-4300 of the Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended, requires that Agricultural and Forestal Districts be reviewed by the local government every five years after establishment. The Board of Supervisors decides to approve, approve with modifications, or deny the proposal to establish or renew a District. The District was updated in 2020. Proposed Changes: Current 2020-2025 District Proposed 2025-2030 District Acreage 1,014.45 +/- acres 1,014.45 +/- acres Number of Parcels 14 14 Number of Property Owners 01 01 Magisterial District(s) Gainesboro Gainesboro Land Use Residential & Agricultural Residential & Agricultural 6 Page 2 of 3 District Characteristics: Agricultural & Forestal Significance: The District is 90 percent agriculture (livestock, orchards, and crop harvest) and 10 percent open space/woodlands. The land within the District is rural in nature. Lakes/Ponds/Streams: The District lies primarily within the Abrams Creek drainage area. The establishment of this District will further assist with managing the quality of the County’s water resources. Prime Agricultural Soil: The largest amount of prime agricultural soils located within the District is Frederick-Poplimento. The District generally varies from a broad rolling hills to the west and, gently rolling hills to the north and east. This District lies within the Abrams Creek watershed and water is available from ponds, wells and springs. Most of the areas within the District are in pasture, orchards, livestock, and few areas are woodland. Comprehensive Plan: The 2035 Comprehensive Plan of Frederick County provides guidance when considering land use actions. The District is located within the limits of Route 37 West Land Use Plan of the Comprehensive Plan. The Route 37 West Land Use Plan identified a study area which encompassed 645-acres bounded by Route 522 to the north, Route 37 to the east and the Round Hill Community Land Use Plan bound to the south. The Plan identified 120 acres of that study area for potential business uses and the remaining 525-acres within the study area was proposed to remain rural. The intent of the Rural Areas is to maintain agriculture as a significant portion of the County’s economy and to maintain the rural character of areas outside of the Urban Development Area. The Comprehensive Plan can accomplish this by promoting the inclusion of additional land in Agricultural and Forestal Districts. The Comprehensive Plan supports the renewal of the District for it provides an opportunity for the agribusiness community to conduct long range planning efforts for the management of their operations, while providing a reserve of agricultural land through the year 2030. Staff Comments: This renewal provides an opportunity for the agribusiness community to conduct long-range planning efforts for the management of their operations. Once renewed, the 1,014.45 acre District will be valid through August 2030. Staff is seeking a recommendation from the ADAC to forward to the Planning Commission on District renewal. 7 £¤50 £¤522 £¤522 £¤522 Winchester ¬«37 ¬«37 POORHOUSE RDFOX DRBRYARLY RDB ET H EL G R A N G E R D GLENDOBBIN RD GOLDS HILL RD NATIONALLUTHERANBLVDDICKS HOLLOW RDAPPLE PIE RIDGE RDTHWAITELNMARPLE RDOLD BETHELCHURCH RDINDIAN HOLLOW RD BURNT CHURCH RDFuture Route 37 Byp ass Pa rce ls 2025-20 30 AlbinAgricultural & Forestal District I 0 0.55 1.10.2 75 Miles Note:Frederick County Dept of Planning & Development107 N Kent St. Suite 202, Winchester, VA 22601540 - 665 - 5651Map Created: March 26, 2025 PIN Owner Acre s41 A 170 KSS LC 274.1642 A 61 SOLENBERGER, KATHERINE S, TRUSTEE & KSS LAND TRUST 125.6142 A 62 KEARNS, DIANE S, TRUSTEE & DTS LAND TRUST 76.4842 A 180 DTS LC 105.2642 A 190 DTS LC 7.8842 A 191 DTS LC 16.7842 A 192 DTS LC 1.0442 A 193 BHS LC 6.2252 A 48 KSS LC 24.5052 A 49 KSS LC 8.5053 A 1 DTS LC 92.8553 A 2 DTS LC 145.9353 A 3 BHS LC 8.3453 A 69 DTS LC 120.90 8 £¤522 £¤522 £¤50 £¤522 £¤522 £¤522 Winchester ¬«37 ¬«37ADVOWSONPLPROCESSIONWAY F O X R ID G E L N RETAILBLVDCORPORATE PL E D W A R D S L N LANNYDRCREEPYCROW LN OMPS DR PONDVIEW DR P O S S U M D R A W P L W O O D S I D EPL H U D S O NAVE UPPERRIDGE RDASHTONDRH A R R O WL NTANKARD LNBABBSRUN LN WHITACRESTHOSPITALRD FOX DRGEORGE STW REDOUBT LN AP P LE P IERIDGE RDBOGGESS LNWOODCRESTDRNORTHSECTOR CTCAMPUSBLVDOLD BETHEL LN BRYARLY RDLINDEN DRTHWAITE LNPROMINENCECIRB E T H E L G R A N G E R D L I T T L E P O N D L N N A T IO N A L L U T H E R A N B L V D S K Y V I E W L N MARGARET LNOLD BETHEL CHURCH RDINDIAN HOLLOW RD KATYDID DR INDIAN HOLLOW RD LONG GREEN LNMARPLE RDBURNT CHURCH RDGOLDS HILL RD POORHOUSE RDECHO LN2025-20 30 AlbinAgricultural & Forestal District District Acreage: 1,014.45 Ac.I 0 0.25 0.50.1 25 MilesNote:Frederick County Dept of Planning & Development107 N Kent St. Suite 202, Winchester, VA 22601540 - 665 - 5651Map Created: March 4, 2025 9 AGRICULTURAL AND FORESTAL DISTRICT UPDATE Apple Pie Ridge District Staff Report for the Agricultural District Advisory Committee Prepared: April 7, 2025 Staff Contact: Mark Cheran, Zoning Administrator Executive Summary: Meeting Schedule Agricultural District Advisory Committee (ADAC): Action: Pending Planning Commission: Action: Pending Board of Supervisors: Action: Pending General District Location This District is located within the Stonewall District and is generally located along Payne Road (Route 663) to the north, Welltown Road (Route 661) to the east, Apple Pie Ridge Road (Route 739) to the west, and Glendobbin Road (Route 673) to the south.

Prime Agricultural Soil: There is a limited amount of prime agricultural soils located within the District, which are Blairton, Carbo, Frederick, Guernesy and Massanetta. The District generally varies from a broad rolling valley to the west of Devils Backbone, to very steep forested land on the eastern parcels and along Redbud Run. This District is within the Redbud Run watershed and water is available from ponds, wells and springs. Most of the soils, with the exception of those on the steeper slopes, are suited to a wide variety of farm uses. These steeper slopes are mostly forested and are heavily wooded. Most of the area is in pasture, cultivated crops and hay with few woodland areas. Comprehensive Plan: The 2035 Comprehensive Plan of Frederick County provides guidance when considering land use actions. The District lies in an area that is outside the Urban Development Area (UDA) and Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). The area is located within the limits of the Northeastern Land Use Plan. Approximately half of the District is designated as a Developmentally Sensitive Area in the Northeast Land Use Plan. The remaining parcels have no land use designation, which indicates the area should remain rural. The intent of the Rural Areas is to maintain agriculture as a significant portion of the County’s economy and to maintain the rural character of areas outside of the UDA. The Comprehensive Plan can accomplish this by promoting the inclusion of additional land in Agricultural and Forestal District. The Plan supports the addition/renewal of the District, for it provides an opportunity for the agribusiness community to conduct long range planning efforts for the management of their operations, while providing reserve of agricultural land through 2030. The location of this District lies outside the Urban Development Area (UDA) and Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA) and is not part of any land use plan or study by the County. The Stonewall Industrial Park is located on the south boundary of this District. The land use within the District is residential and agricultural. The current land use should remain in its present land use of pristine condition with land use of orchards, agricultural, and residential. 39 Page 3 of 3 The Eastern Frederick County Road Plan is the major transportation component of the Comp Plan. This road plan identifies the future transportation needs within Frederick County. A major component of this road plan is Route 37, which will provide direct limited east to west access around the City of Winchester. This proposed roadway will need, at a minimum, a 350-foot right- of-way. There is one (1) parcel within this proposed District which will be affected by future Route 37. Staff Comments: This renewal provides an opportunity for the agribusiness community to conduct long-range planning efforts for the management of their operations. Once renewed, the 1,333.25-acre District will be valid through August 2030. Staff is seeking a recommendation from the ADAC to forward to the Planning Commission on District renewal. 40 £¤50 £¤11 £¤522 £¤11 £¤11 §¨¦81 Winchester ¬«7 ¬«7 ¬«7 ¬«7 ¬«37 BROOKE RD F ORT COL L I ER

It is generally located along Hollow Road (Route 707) to the north, Muse Road (Route 610) and Gold Orchard Road (Route 708) to the east. The District was update in 2020. State Code Requirements & District History Chapter 43, Section 15.2-4300 of the Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended, requires that Agricultural and Forestal Districts be reviewed by the local government every five years after establishment. The Board of Supervisors decides to approve, approve with modifications, or deny the proposal to establish or renew a District. The District was updated in 2020. Proposed Changes: Current 2020-2025 District Proposed 2025-2030 District Acreage 981.08 +/- acres 1,312.44 +/- acres Number of Parcels 17 24 Number of Property Owners 01 01 Magisterial District(s) Gainesboro Gainesboro Land Use Residential & Agricultural Residential & Agricultural 53 Page 2 of 3 District Characteristics: Agricultural & Forestal Significance: The predominant agricultural operations in the District are 90 percent agriculture (livestock, horses and crop harvest) and 10 percent open space/woodlands. The area within the District is rural in nature. Lakes/Ponds/Streams: The District lies primarily within the Gainesboro drainage area. The District will further assist with managing the quality of the County’s water resources. Prime Agricultural Soil: The largest amount of prime agricultural soil located within the District is Weikert-Berks-Blairton. The District generally varies from rolling hills to ridges to the north, west, south and east. The District lies within the Gainesboro watershed and water is available from ponds, wells and springs. Comprehensive Plan: The 2035 Comprehensive Plan of Frederick County provides guidance when considering land use actions. The location of the District lies outside the Urban Development Area (UDA) and Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA) and is not part of any land use plan or study by the County. The land use within the District is agricultural and residential and nature. The current land use should remain in its present condition with land use of orchards, agricultural, and residential. The intent of the Rural Areas is to maintain agriculture as a significant portion of the County’s economy and to maintain the rural character of areas outside of the Urban Development Area. The Comprehensive Plan can accomplish this by promoting the inclusion of additional land in Agricultural and Forestal Districts. The Comprehensive Plan supports the renewal of the District because it provides an opportunity for the agribusiness community to conduct long range planning efforts for the management of their operations, while providing a reserve of agricultural land through the year 2030. Staff Comments: This renewal provides an opportunity for the agribusiness community to conduct long-range planning efforts for the management of their operations. Once renewed, the 1312.44-acre District will be valid through August 2030. Staff is seeking a recommendation from the ADAC to forward to the Planning Commission on District renewal. 54 ¬«259 ¬«259 ¬«259 HAMPSHIRE CO UNTYWEST VIRGINIA CAR P E NT E R CT SUNRISEDR KENDALLDRHARNERSCT A A R O ND R ISAACDRANCHORAGELNPUGHLNB R Y CE C T PARISHVILLE RDFLETCHERRDDRUMMINGGROUSE CTO WLLN L O RIS C T PARTRIDGE LNCOVERDWHITHAM DR FINGER LAKES CT CLINE DR BURLEY LNCORYLUSWOOD LNADVENTURELOOPHARRY HIETT LNWHITLOCK LN CARPERS PIKEHOLLOW RD BACK CREEK RDMUSE RDPa rce ls 2025-20 30 South Timber RidgeAgricultural & Forestal District I 0 0.55 1.10.2 75 Miles Note:Frederick County Dept of Planning & Development107 N Kent St. Suite 202, Winchester, VA 22601540 - 665 - 5651Map Created: March 27, 2025 PIN Owne r Acre s PIN Owner Acres26 A 42 CKW RENTALS LLC 0.53 26 A 65 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 7.6126 A 43 CKW RENTALS LLC 2.89 37 A 1 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 176.2326 A 43A CKW RENTALS LLC 11.23 37 A 1A CLW HOLDINGS LLC 10.0026 A 45 CKW RENTALS LLC 0.31 37 A 8 CKW RENTALS LLC 77.0226 A 46 CKW RENTALS LLC 141.04 37 A 47 CKW RENTALS LLC 68.5826 A 49 CKW RENTALS LLC 85.29 37 A 58 CKW RENTALS LLC 5.0726 A 50 HIDDEN VALLEY ORCHARDS LLC 64.28 37 A 59 CKW RENTALS LLC 3.7026 A 61 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 100.16 37 A 60 CKW RENTALS LLC 0.9726 A 61A WATT, CORDELL L & KIMBERLY K 2.00 37 A 63 CKW RENTALS LLC 23.2626 A 62 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 35.30 37 A 65 CKW RENTALS LLC 88.2826 A 63 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 38.54 37 A 73 SPRING RIDGE LLC 268.5526 A 64 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 81.06 37 A 74 CLW HOLDINGS LLC 20.54 55 ¬«259 ¬«259 ¬«259SYKES DRSUNRISE DR K E N D A L L D R HAR NERS CT A A R O N D R ANCHORAGELN B R Y C E C T ISAACDR WELBOURNE LNDRUMMINGGROUSE CTOWL LN LORIS CTFLETCHER RDWHITHAM DR FINGER LAKES CT CLINE DR BURLEY LN CARPERS PIKEHOLLOW RD PARISHVILLE RDCORYLUS WOOD LNMUSE RDHOLLOW RD BACK CREEK RDADVENTURE LOOP H A R R Y H I E T T L N WHITLOCK LN C A R PER S PIK EMUSE RDHAMPSHIRE CO UNTYWEST VIRGINIA 2025-20 30 South Timber RidgeAgricultural & Forestal District District Acreage: 1,312.44 Ac.I 0 0.3 0.60.15 MilesNote:Frederick County Dept of Planning & Development107 N Kent St. Suite 202, Winchester, VA 22601540 - 665 - 5651Map Created: March 27, 2025 56 AGRICULTURAL AND FORESTAL DISTRICT UPDATE White Hall District Staff Report for the Agricultural District Advisory Committee Prepared: April 7, 2025 Staff Contact: Mark Cheran, Zoning Administrator Executive Summary: Meeting Schedule Agricultural District Advisory Committee (ADAC): Action: Pending Planning Commission: Action: Pending Board of Supervisors: Action: Pending General District Location The District is located within the Gainesboro Magisterial District and is generally located on Wright Road (Rt. 661) and Apple Pie Ridge Road (Rt.739).

The area within the proposed District is rural in nature. Lakes/Ponds/Streams: A portion of the District lies within the head waters of Sylvan Springs Run and drainage area. This will further assist with managing the quality of the County’s water resources. Prime Agricultural Soil: The soils for this area are Hazleton and Laidig-Weikert. Both soils are typically strongly sloping to very steep and found on mountaintops, side slopes and ridges; these soils tend to be well drained and consist of sandstone, quartzite, and shale. While the subject properties are primarily forested, these soils are not classified as prime agricultural soils. The District is located along Great North Mountain, west of Interstate 81. The topography ranges from steeply sloping along Great North Mountain to rolling along Wrights Road (Rt.661).
