Mohn Patton Harris Rust Associates, p.c. 117 East Piccadilly Street Winchester, Virginia 22601 RE: Russell Glendobbin Property Rezoning Frederick County, Virginia Dear Chris: June 22, 2005 COUNTY of FREDERICK We have completed our review of the proposed rezoning and offer the following comments: Department of Public Works 540/665 -5643 FAX: 540/678-0682 Refer to page 3 of 6, C. Site Suitability: The discussion indicates that "the site does not contain conditions that would preclude or substantially hinder development activities As you may or may not know, the proposed rezoning site is located within a karst area of Frederick County. The karst areas surrounding this site are characterized by linear rock outcrops and isolated sinkholes. Efforts should be made to evaluate the onsite conditions to determine if sinkholes or solutioning could impact the onsite development of a small lot subdivision. The results should be included in the Environmental Features table shown on page 4 of 6. Refer to page 5 of 6 Site Drainage: The discussion indicates that "site drainage collects and leaves the site to the south as.it drains to Red Bud Run The site drainage does eventually flow to Red Bud Run. However, based on the available topographic survey information, it appears that the runoff leaves the proposed rezoning site in three (3) distinct directions: east, west and north. This multi- directional flow will make stormwater management a real challenge. We applaud the applicants' offer to implement BMP facilities (Proffer 10.1) to control, not only, the magnitude of the flows, but also, the quality of the runoff. These facilities should be highlighted on the Master Development Plan. In addition, off -site drainage easements may be required in situations where point source discharges are created on or near the property limits. The covenants created for the proposed subdivision shall include requirements for the operation and maintenance of the BMP facilities. Copies of these requirements shall be submitted with the subdivision design. 107 North Kent Street Winchester, Virginia 22601 -5000 HES /rls A: Wsscll- glendobbinrezcom.wpd Russell Glendobbin Rezoning Page 2 June 22, 2005 Refer to page 5 of 6 Solid Waste Disposal Facilities: The discussion indicates that solid waste will be collected at citizens' convenience /dumpster facilities or via private carrier(s) contracted by neighborhood residents. The closest existing citizen convenience site located in Clearbrook is experiencing traffic congestion and an increase in waste generated by new development. Consequently, we are recommending that all new residential developments employ private haulers to provide curbside trash pickup. This requirement shall be included in the homeowners' covenants. This requirement will serve to offset the need to provide a suitable convenience site on the proposed subdivision property. This latter alternative will require the applicant to dedicate approximately one (1) acre to serve as a convenience site operated by Frederick County.

BOX 548 WINCHESTER, VIRGINIA 2 2604 -08 48 I have reviewed the above referenced Proposed Proffer Statement. It is my opinion that the Proposed Proffer Statement is generally in a form to meet the requirements of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance and the Code of Virginia and is legally sufficient as a proffer statement, subject to the following: 1. Paragraph 1.2: Is this development to be limited to any particular type of single- family detached building types, or is it to be limited to one of the specific single- family detached building types set forth in Section 165 -59(B) of the Zoning Ordinance? If it is to be limited to a specific type, that should be set forth in the proffer. 2. Paragraph 2.1: I don't understand the reference to "Butcher" in this Susan K.

For example would those units be designated at the time of subdivision? 4. Paragraph 12.1: It should be noted that the inflation adjustment calculation provides for the cap of 6% per year to be non compounded. I have not reviewed the substance of the proffers as to whether the proffers are suitable and appropriate for this specific site, as it is my understanding that that review will be done by the staff and the Planning Commission.

According to the Rural Landmarks Survey, there are no significant historic structures located on the properties nor are there any possible historic districts in the vicinity.

Maddox, Jr.. P.E., Senior VP Patton Harris Rust Associates 117 E. Piccadilly Street, Suite 200 Winchester, VA 22601 RE: Proposed Rezoning of Russell Glendobbin Property Dear Chuck: 2. COU 107 North Kent Street, Suite 202 Winchester, Virginia 22601 -5000 CK Department of Planning and Development 540/665 -5651 FAX: 540/ 665 -6395 I have had the opportunity to review the draft rezoning application for the Russell Glendobbin Property. The rezoning application seeks to rezone 67.73 acres from RA (Rural Areas) District to the RP (Residential Performance) District. Staffs review comments are listed below for your consideration. 1. Procedure. The subject property is in the Urban Development Area (UDA), therefore the applicant is eligible to seek a Board waiver of the division restriction on the set -aside (40% parcel) of the Glendobbin Ridge Rural Preservation Subdivision. As per Section165- 54D(3) of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance, this is accomplished through a rezoning, following a public hearing. Procedurally, the Board waiver and the rezoning would take place at the same public hearing. Comprehensive Plan. As noted in the draft application, the subject properties are in the UDA and partially in the Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). I would point out that no portion of the subject sites are designated for residential use on the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan. Since this site is not in an area designated for residential development, it is not clear how the proposal is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. As you are aware, Section165- 54D(3) of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance states that a rezoning covering a preservation parcel will only be granted if the rezoning is consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Surrounding Area. The adjacent Glendobbin Ridge Rural Preservation Subdivision contains two -acre lots and the large set -aside parcel. (Note: The property owners in that subdivision bought their lots with the clear expectation that the set -aside parcel would remain as such.) Also adjacent to the south and west are five -acre lots, which have yet to be developed. In fact, most subdivisions along Page 2 Mr. C.E. Maddox, Jr. RE: Proposed Rezoning of Russell Glendobbin Property June 23, 2005 Glendobbin Road, inside of the UDA, contain lots of five acres or greater. Also critical is the fact that the parcels immediately to the east are planned and zoned for industrial use. While the Comprehensive Plan seeks to separate industrial uses from residential uses, this proposal would considerably increase the number of residences. and thus residents, directly adjacent to planned and zoned industrial land. Furthermore, it appears that the proposal is advocating using a large number of new residents as a buffer between industrial and low- density residential uses. The set -aside parcel currently serves as a very satisfactory buffer. 4. Sewer and Water. Only part of the site is within the Sewer and Water Service Areas (SWSA) and thus eligible for water and sewer service. 5. Buffer. Should this application be successful, the Zoning Ordinance only requires a Category A Buffer between new RP and an existing M1 Districts. The applicant should consider enhancements to the required buffer, such as that required when new 1\41 locates next to existing RP. 6. Route 37. The GDP shows the future Route 37 and a proffer indicates the right -of- way for Route 37 would be dedicated to the County at no cost. Should this application be successful, the Zoning Ordinance requires buffers and screening between the residential parcels and Route 37, which would be a major arterial road. The applicant may want to consider enhancements to the required buffer and screening. Also note that the alignment of Route 37 is at present not precise, and may impact more of the site than that shown on your plans. 7. Surveyed Plat. Please supply a surveyed plat of the subject properties, which shows all property lines and proposed zoning boundary lines. Metes and bounds should be provided to verify exact locations of lots and zoning boundaries. Deed. Please provide a deed to the property verifying current ownership. 9. Verification that taxes have been paid. Please provide a receipt from the Treasurer's office which verifies that real estate taxes for the properties have been paid. 10. Adjacent parcels. The list of adjoining properties should include 43 -A -19 and 43- A-21. Also ownership of parcel 43 -20 -3 has changed. Verify ownerships before the actual application is submitted. Paee 3 Mr. C.E. Maddox, Jr. RE: Proposed Rezoning of Russell Glendobbin Property June 23, 2005 11. Proposed Proffer Statement (Including Generalized Dev elopment Plan). A. Page 3 of the applications states the application is for 125 units. The proffer statement (1.1) states a maximum of 130 units. Please insure consistent numbers. B. Proffer 2.1 refers to the Butcher rezonine. Please correct. C. Proffer 3.1 states a contribution to the Board for fire and rescue in the amount of $889.00 per dwelling unit. This is not consistent with the amount listed on page 6 of 6 in the impact assessment. D. Proffer 4.1 mentions units designated as "age restricted This is not explained in the application. Please address. E. Proffer 11.1 states the applicant shall privately fund all transportation improvements required of this project. Specify the improvements and the timing of those improvements. F. Proffer 11.2 calls for a connection between the internal road network for the project and Glendobbin Ridge Road. Please be more specific on the details of this connection and the timing of the connection. 12. Agency Comments. Please provide appropriate agency comments from the following aeencies: Historic Resources Advisory Board, Virginia Department of Transportation Frederick County Department of Public Works, Frederick County Fire Marshall, Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation, Frederick County Public Schools, Frederick County Sanitation Authority, Frederick Winchester Health Department, Clearbrook Fire and Rescue Company, the Frederick Winchester Service Authority and the Frederick County Attorney. Note: the proffer statement has been sent to the Frederick County Attorney by the Planning Department. 13. Virginia Department of Transportation. I have received an email from Lloyd Ingram at VDOT stating that VDOT was not satisfied with the transportation proffers. VDOT's concerns will need to be addressed before this application is submitted. 14. Fees. The fee for this application includes a $3,000.00 base fee plus $100.00 per acre, and a $50.00 public hearing sign fee. Thus, a total of $9,823 is due upon submission of the official rezonine application. This is based on fees as of January 27, 2005. Fees may change. 15. Special Limited Power of Attorney. Please have the property owners complete the special limited power of attorney form which authorizes you to represent them during the application process. Page 4 Mr. C.E. Maddox, Jr. RE: Proposed Rezoning of Russell Glendobbin Property June 23, 2005 All of the above comments and any agency comments should be appropriately addressed before staff can accept this rezoning application. Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions regarding this application. Sincerely, Susan K. Eddy, AICP Senior Planner SKE/bhd Attachment
