Thank you Tim Stowe Stowe Engineering 540.686.7373 v 1540.336.0656 m 1540.301.1100 f March 12, 2018 Matthew B. Smith, P.E. VDOT - Land Development 14031 Old Valley Pike Edinburg, VA 22824 RE: Waveland Farm Conditional Use Permit, Frederick County Mr. Smith, I am providing the attached information to summarize various communications pertaining to the referenced Conditional Use Permit request, and to obtain your approval. Salient communications occurring after submitting the initial CUP request for comments to VDOT are: i 1. Additional information was provided to VDOT concerning the number of participants attending events at this location. This information is contained in the attached CUP application. 2. The property owner provided information, including a sketch, showing how the existing private property entrance on Marlboro Road (Route 631) will be gated, and described how the gate will be closed during events. Event participants will use a newly constructed access point on the Abigail Way cul-de-sac to access events. A copy of the sketch showing the planned gate configuration is attached to the CUP application. 3. An on-site meeting was held on February 8, 2018 with Mr. Lloyd Ingram of the VDOT Edinburg Residency to review the connection between the Abigail Way cul-de-sac and the Waveland Farm driveway. Mr. Ingram said he considered the connection to be a driveway connection and did not see a problem with it. 4. 1 asked Mr. Ingram if Abigail Way and Nittany South Way could be brought into the VDOT system since the connection between Abigail Way and the Waveland Farm driveway now connects three existing homes to Abigail Way; 1209, 1211, and 1215 Marlboro Road. He is reviewing this request. 5. A meeting was held with the Frederick County Zoning Administrator concerning the status of Abigail Way and Nittany South Way. The roads have been dedicated to Frederick County but have not yet been taken into the VDOT system. A bond has been posted by the developer and is to remain in force until the roads are taken into the VDOT system. The Waveland Farm owner has entered into an agreement with the developer to provide some maintenance activities on these roads. I trust this provides the information needed for your approval of the Waveland Farm Conditional Use permit request. Sincerely, Timothy's.

The HRAB reviewed information associated with the Rural Landmarks Survey, information from the Virginia Department of Historic Resources (VDHR) and information provided by the Applicant. This application seeks to operate an event center at 1211 Marlboro Road, Stephens City. This property is within the Back Creek Magisterial District. Historic Resources Advisory Board Comments: The Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley, published by the National Park Service, does not identify the proposed site or the surrounding areas as being part of a battlefield. The Rural Landmarks Survey Report for Frederick County, Virginia, identifies three structures located within the vicinity of the proposed Conditional Use Permit, one of those (Waveland) is located on the subject property. After reviewing this information and the Applicant's materials and proposals, the Historic Resources Advisory Board (HRAB) recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit as presented. Thank you for the chance to comment on this application. Please call if you have any questions or concerns. Sincerely, ell Candice E. Perkins, AICP, CZA Assistant Director CEP/pd 107 North Kent Street, Suite 202 • Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000
