Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 578 -2 - PUBLIC HEARINGS Exception Request by David L. & Marie L. Shull from the requirements of Section 144-31C(3) of the Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance requiring that easements providing access to lots within minor rural subdivisions be a minimum of 50' in width. Action - Recommend Approval Mr. Kris Tierney, Planning Director, presented a letter from Mr. Scot Marsh, written on behalf of Mr. David L. and Mrs. Marie L. Shull, the owners of 7.24 acres along Northwestern Pike (Rt. 50) in the Back Creek Magisterial District, who wish to subdivide a two -acre lot for their son. Mr. Tierney said that the Shulls have the required acreage, however, the five -acre lot resulting from the proposed division would be served solely by an existing 30' easement. He said that the County Subdivision Ordinance requires that any lot in a minor rural subdivision either have direct access to a state -maintained road or be served by a right-of- way with a minimum width of 50'. He explained that the Shulls have attempted to obtain the additional right- of-way needed to meet the requirement of Section 144-31(3), but have been unsuccessful. Mr. Tierney continued, stating that the proposed five -acre lot contains the Shulls residence which is presently accessed by the 30' right-of-way. He said that no further subdivision on the five -acre parcel would be possible. Mr. Tierney added that the staff believes that given the fact that the existing residence on the parcel is already served by the right-of-way and that no additional lots will be served by it, an exemption to the 50' requirement is appropriate. Mr. Unger inquired if 50' could be obtained going across Lot 2 out to the road. Mr. Scot Marsh, land surveyor with Marsh & Legge Land Surveyors, P.L.C., representing the Shull-, for the family variance, stated that Lot 2 does not have road frontage and they access by way of a prescriptive ingrc: s/egress easement across a gravel driveway. Mr. Marsh said that the Shull's only road frontage on Route 50 is a 30' -wide strip. They currently access their home through the gravel driveway; the adjacent owners have no objection, however, they did not want to convey a 50' -wide ingress/egress easement. Mr. Marsh added that Lot 1 has an approved drainfield site, therefore, both lots are adequate from a residential standpoint. Mr. Miller inquired if a road could be put in on the 30' frontage on Route 50 for Lot 1. Mr. Marsh replied that the existing drainfield would make it difficult to construct a road through there. Mr. Reyes asked what attempts had been made with the Sheldons to get the easement waiver. Mr. Marsh said that contacts were made with the adjacent neighbors. Mr. Marsh said not only did they try to acquire additional right-of-way and an easement, but also to buy additional frontage land. The adjacent owner was not interested. In response to this, Mr. Reyes asked if this was all verbal and Mr. Marsh was not sure. Mr. David Shull, the owner of the property, said that he personally spoke with the Sheldons about purchasing property, however, they were not interested. Mr. Shull said this was for his son and he has no intentions of selling this property. Chairman DeHaven called for public comments, however, no one came forward to speak. Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 579 -3 - Because no further subdivision of the five -acre parcel would be possible and, given the fact that the existing residence on the parcel is already served by the right-of-way and no additional lots will be served by it, the Commission believed an exemption to the 50' requirement was appropriate. Upon motion made by Mr. Miller and seconded by Mr. Thomas, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby unanimously recommend approval of a request by David L. and Marie L. Shull for the granting of an exception from the requirements of Section 144-31C(3) of the Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance requiring that easements providing access to lots within minor rural subdivisions be a minimum of 50' in width. Rezoning #04-00 of Mid -Atlantic Industrial & Tech Center, submitted by Greenway Engineering on behalf of Shockey Industries, to rezone 208 acres from RA (Rural Areas) to MI (Light Industrial), and 239 acres from RA (Rural Areas) to M2 (Industrial General) for an Industrial and Technology Park. This property is located east of Milburn Road (Rt. 662), south of Old Charles Town Road (Rt. 761), and southwest of Jordan Springs Road (Rt. 664) and is identified with P.I.N.s 44-A-31, 44-A-292, and 44-A- 293 in the Stonewall Magisterial District. Action - Tabled at the Applicant's Request Mr. Evan A. Wyatt, Deputy Planning Director, read the background information and review agency comments. Mr. Wyatt stated that the property is located within the County's Sewer and Water Service Area, it is within the portion of the Northeast Land Use Plan which recommends future industrial land use, it is adjacent to the identified Developmentally Sensitive Area (DSA), it contains a portion of the identified core area of Stephenson's Depot, and it is within an area recommended as a potential rural historic district which would qualify for the National Register of Historic Places. He said that the Northeast Land Use Plan recommends that industrial land uses should only occur if impacted road systems function at a grade "C"level of service (LOS) or better, that industrial land uses be developed with public water and sewer service, and that industrial land uses should be adequately screened from adjoining land uses to mitigate visual and noise impacts. Mr. Wyatt said that the staff has identified several issues based on comments received from various review agencies which involve impacts to the transportation system, water and sewer service, historic resources, the regional landfill, and adjoining properties. Mr. Wyatt said that the applicant has submitted a proffer statement in an attempt to mitigate the issues identified by staff. He stated that proffered conditions include the elimination of specific land uses, studies and improvements to the impacted road systems, the establishment of easements to preserve land areas and protect viewsheds, the ability to research and relocate a potentially significant historic structure, limitations of sign heights, and a monetary contribution for fire and rescue services. Mr. Wyatt continued, stating that the development ofan industrial park and technology center at this location will have an impact on existing residential land uses along Old Charles Town Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 580 -4- Road due to their proximity to this acreage, and could potentially have an impact to the viewshed associated with the historic Stephenson Depot area. He said that the Frederick County-Winchester Battlefield Network Plan sets forth strategies for Stephenson Depot which include working with land owners to preserve key areas while allowing some development, ensuring that more intensive uses in the core area provide means to protect viewsheds as a part of their development plans, to use Milburn Road as a primary travel connection between Stephenson Depot and Third Winchester, and to work with land owners to preserve views along Milburn Road using buffers, vegetation, and easements._ Mr. Wyatt next read a list of comments suggested by the staff that the applicant could use to further mitigate the impacts of this development. At this point, there were several questions from the Commission regarding options available for sewer treatment and whether transportation improvements for this area may have been included in WATS. Mr. Donald Shockey ofthe Shockey Companies came forward and introduced himselfand Mr. John Goode, Treasurer of Shockey Companies, and Mr. Mark Smith of Greenway Engineering, the design engineers for the project. Mr. Shockey spoke about the positive aspects of having a good industrial and economic base in our community, the Shockey Companies involvement in the improvement of our community, and their intentions of continuing this role into the future. He said that a good industrial and economic base provides greater il-b security for individuals, it bolsters the community's financial health and security, it strengthens the tax base, provides better schools for our children, it serves as a catalyst for reliable water and sewer. He said that their proposed development is a continuum in this direction. Mr. Shockey next compared the low tax rate in Frederick County to the higher rate of surrounding adjacent counties. Mr. Shockey said that their development seeks a balance among the diverse interests ofthe community. He concluded by stating that they have addressed the historic sensitivity of the area openly and properly. Mr. Mark Smith of Greenway Engineering, the design/engineering firm for the development, presented the details of the development to the Commission. Mr. Smith then reviewed each of the proposed proffers with the Commission, particularly the entrance on Old Charles Town Road, the emergency access on Stephenson Road, the signalization, intersection, and progressive improvements in coordination with VDOT, the developmentally sensitive area easement details, the proposed elements for protection ofthe viewshed along the ridge line which parallels Milburn Road, the establishment of a conservation easement along Hiatt's Run, and finally, heights and limitations for signs. In addition, Mr. Smith stated that they conducted a mailing campaign in the initial stages of this project to meet with the adjoining property owners, however, only two people responded. Commissioners asked Mr. Smith to discuss the entrances, the distribution of traffic, and how the traffic would get to required destinations. They also asked Mr. Smith to discuss the rail connection and Mr. Smith gave the details on this. Mr. Smith believed their proposed rail connection location was the best in order to minimize visual impacts and to also function well for the park. Another Commissioner asked how close the railroad spur would be to the Milburn Cemetery and Mr. Smith replied approximately 100'-150'. Also discussed was the zoning line on the east side of the property. Commissioner Ours inquired if the zoning line could be pulled back because the applicant had indicated that the property drops down and is not readily useable. Mr. Smith replied that he could pull the zoning line back about 600; he had drawn the line there because it hit natural features and made a clean cut. He said that their stormwater Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 581 -5 - management could still take place in this area, regardless of the zoning. Commissioner Ours noted that there were a few uses allowed in the M2 that the applicant had not proffered out; he believed that incinerators and fuel dealers, for instance, wouldn't be appropriate for this area. He asked the applicant to explain their intentions for the M2. Mr. John Good, Treasurer for the Shockey Companies, read a list of uses they believed would be suitable for this area. Mr. Good took note of the two uses believed to'.; inappropriate. Mr. Thomas asked the applicant to explain plans for management and maintenance of the stormwater management areas and runoff quality after build -out. Mr. Smith explained that the regional ponds will not be owned by a particular lot user, but will be owned and maintained by the park. He said that a pre- determined dollar amount is collected per acre to cover this maintenance. Mr. Morris asked how the five to six residences directly across Old Charles Town Road will be protected from impacts. Mr. Smith said that he will visit those residents to see what is acceptable to them. Mr. Smith proposed landscaping and screening and said that he will need to involve VDOT in the process. Mr. Light asked how the project would be sewered and also inquired about any alignments to Route 37. Mr. Smith said that no treatment plant is proposed; they will pump the sewer from this facility to the Opcquon Wastewater Treatment Facility on Route 7. Mr. Smith proceeded to give the details ofthe process to the Commission. Chairman DeHaven next called for public comments and the following persons came forward to speak: Mr. Mark Stivers, a resident of Stephenson in the Woodsmill Subdivision, remarked that various other subdi�risions and areas, for example, Woodsmill, the Opequon Ridges, Stephenson, Clearbrook, Redbud Road, and the Route 11 area, had not been mentioned in the discussions. Mr. Slivers said that all the persons present and those who have signed petitions against this development are sending a message to the Board of Supervisors that the Board must pay attention to the wishes of the citizens of the community. He continued, stating that he had the privilege of serving on the subcommittee that studied the northeastern portion of the County and the subcommittee had recommended that the area proposed for rezoning not be included in the Comprehensive Plan as industrial land. Mr. Stivers said that the Board of Supervisors ignored that recommendation and said that the subcommittee did not have the authority to make this change. Mr. James Stillwell, of 423 Highbanks Road in Stephenson, said that he had sent the Commission a letter on November 7 outlining criteria he believed needed to be brought forward. Mr. Stillwell believed the two main issues were the zoning and the Land Use Plan. He believed the applicant's plan should be presented in detail, such as the road network, and be finalized. Mr. Stillwell believed that the minimum setback requirements in the County for heavy industrial use were not adequate and needed upgrading. He said that this proposal will impact not only the civil war sites, but also Jordan Springs and other archeological sites. He also discussed limiting building heights; turning loading docks internally to the site; the need to address truck traffic along Charles Town Road, Jordan Springs Road, and Woodsmill Road; and the applicant should pay 100% of any improvements promised in the proffers. Mr. Stillwell stated the Land Use Plan did not call for any M2 Zoning in this area. He said that since the Land Use Plan has already been accepted, this proposal was in the wrong place and the rezoning request should be denied. Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 582 -6 - Ms. Katherine Whitzell, resident of Back Creek District and Chairman of the Advisory Board for the McCormick Civil War Institute at Shenandoah University, came forward and stated that she was speaking for Dr. Brandon Beck, Chairman of the McCormick Civil War Institute at Shenandoah University, who had to leave the meeting. Ms. Whitzell said they have been working on preserving Fort Collier which has also been developed into an industrial area and they are having trouble getting grants because the civil war site has been so diminished by industrial growth. Ms. Whitzell said that we do not need any more industrial growth next to our battlefield sites, especially the core battlefield of Second Winchester. Ms. Whitzell also introduced Private David Bockman of the 13th Virginia Volunteer Infantry, Company H, and said that Private Bockman, like many other civil war buffs, totaling 35,000 nationally that are members of the Civil War Preservation Trust, are very upset about the possibility of losing this site. Ms. Whitzell next read a statement by Dr. Brandon Beck. Mr. Glen Penton, an architect and a resident of Stonewall District, did not want all the land in Frederick County filled up with industrial parks just to keep the tax base down. He believed there were probably better ways to achieve that goal and provide balanced growth. Mr. Penton presented some graphics of the site that he prepared pointing out the acreage designated for building and parking. He anticipated that the facility would run 24 hours per day and there would be 26,000 trips per day. He said that the environment in the Valley is on the verge of being polluted and questioned whether additional industry should be added towards that. He said that a large portion of this land has already been clear cut, even in the erosion areas, steep banks, and against people's homes. He believed the 100' setback buffer was inadequate and he did not believe the proposal was reasonable. Mr. Charles Weiss, President of the Winchester -Frederick County Chamber of Commerce, stated that the Chamber represents 1,230 individual business members, ranging from small businesses to commercial and industrial companies, and who employ approximately 40,000 people, supplying the bulk of jobs in our county, as well as contribute 1 %z million dollars annually to the County's tax base. Mr. Weiss explained that he was present on behalf of the Chamber membership, not to specifically comment on the Shockey's development, but to address a movement which has recently surrounded the project. He made reference to an advertisement that recently appeared in the Winchester Star, paid for by an organization he was unfamiliar with, but which stated that "...one industry was stopped some time ago from relocating to Frederick County—now stop the rest!" Mr. Weiss said that having businesses and industries in our County contributes significantly to the quality of life for everyone. He asked what constitutes this quality of life and then stated that scenic beauty of the area is certainly on the list, but not at the expense of having a job to go to or having access to goods ana services in the County. He continued, stating not at the expense of having good schools for our children to attend, nor at the expense of protection provided by the Sheriff and Fire Departments, as well as good roads and other necessary infrastructure. He encouraged the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors to continue with smart and balanced growth as stated in the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. David Darsie, a resident of Stonewall District in the Opequon Heights subdivision, stated he lived 1 %2 miles from the proposed development and was concerned about the effects of the industrial development on the value of his and his neighbors' homes and properties. Mr. Darsie was concerned about noise and light pollution, that water treatment facilities will need to be upgraded on a large scale, and that the life of the landfill will be shortened. Mr. Darsie was also concerned about the transportation problems at various intersections, especially at the intersection of I-81 and Route 11 and at Clearbrook at the Old Stone Restaurant, and said that this proposed industrial park will greatly stress these problematic intersections even further. Mr. Darsie said that it was going to take a lot of money and time to build up the road network and the Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 583 -7 - County infrastructure would have to pay for the costs. Mr. Jason Spitzer, a 14 -year-old youth and resident on McGuire Road, off ofApple Pie Ridge Road, in the Gainesboro District, commented that the roads will need to be upgraded to handle the additional traffic that will be generated by the proposed rezoning. Mr. Spitzer said that the roads need to be improved before the development, not after, and he gave as an example the problem of the bridge at the Flying J truck stop. Mr. Spitzer also commented that the residents of Stephenson are worried about their quality of life being disrupted by possible noise and pollution. Mr. Bill Meier, a soon-to-be resident of Woodsmill and a long-term resident of Frederick County, spoke against industrial zoning at this proposed location. Mr. Meier was not happy with the way roads and intersections have been planned and how they function throughout the County. He gave as examples Route 11, Welltown Pike, and Route 37 and said that increased truck traffic will make the situation much worse. Mr. David Kollar, a property owner and business owner in western Frederick County, came forward to speak in favor of the proposed rezoning. Mr. Kollar said that his family, his company, and himself have benefitted greatly over the last 21 years in Frederick County. Mr. Kollar said that his company installs equipment for manufacturing facilities and he employs 85 people. He said that his 85 employees have 153 children and all Li-, ; earned a good livelihood from the services his company provides to the various industrial clients in our area. Mr. Kollar read a list he composed entitled, "Top Ten Truths We Can Hopefully Agree On, But Not Necessarily Like," of which the overall message was that planned and balanced growth was essential for the long-term success of the quality of life in our community and a diversified tax base was the key to our community's infrastructure. Ms. Andrea Kozel, an 18 -year old student at James Wood High School and a resident of Matt's Run in Clearbrook, said that she was speaking for the youth of the community. Ms. Kozel said that she and the other youths did not want to see this "park" polluted. Mr. Bill Kinc, a resident of Stonewall District, stated that this proposal is irresponsible development with very poor planning. Mr. Kinc said that this is squeezing a huge development between a very sensitive historic area and residential housing. He commented that it would be difficult to find another place in the County that was as sensitive and ill-suited as this one. Ms. Susan Courneya, a resident along Redbud Road in the Stonewall District, predicted that Redbud Road will become a short-cut from Route 11 to Route 7 and she was concerned about her children's safety because they ride their bicycles on this road. She said that she rides her horses along this road and there is considerable farm activity here. Ms. Courneya next proceeded to talk about the historical and archeological significance of this property. She then spoke about the underlying water table and how it would be impacted by impervious surfaces, use by industry, and run-off, which possibly, will be contaminated. She predicted that everyone's quality of life will be assaulted; she said that M2 -zoned structures cannot be made to look beautiful or appealing; there will be noise and air pollution; and the construction traffic, industry traffic, and road overuse will pose a definite physical threat. Ms. Courneya asked Mr. Shockey to sell or donate his land to the Civil War Foundation. Ms. Sharon Boyd said that she has over 2,000 petitions from citizens who have signed and Frederick County Planning Corruru cion Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 584 -8 - want to oppose the rezoning of this land. Ms. Boyd said that the citizens of the community have asked her to speak and convey their feelings and concerns. She conveyed the following feelings and concerns: that the citizens dismiss the myth that industry will lower their taxes; they dismiss the notion that we need to create more jobs, because unemployment is at an all-time low; they asked why another industrial park was needed when there are already so many existing; they are concerned about environmental issues; their primary concern is that of "quality of life," not money; and, they want to preserve our national historic treasures for future generations. Ms. Bessie Solenberger, a resident of Gainesboro District and Chairman of the Frederick County Historic Resources Advisory Board, said that she was not very proud of the fact that she was chairman of this committee because when they had their meeting to discuss and make a recommendation on this issue, she was not aware of all the historic issues. Ms. Solenberger said that she was aware of the Byer House, but not about the core battlefields and the rail line. She hoped her committee would get the opportunity to revisit this issue and the committee would send the Planning Commission a completely different message. Ms. Solenberger stated that our area is rich in heritage. She asked the Commission to look 50-75 years into the future and foresee what this industrial park would look like then; she asked if there will be outdated old buildings and runoff and will it be of any value then? Ms. Solenberger said that the County could make this into an historical park; the older it gets the more valuable it gets, especially for tourism. She said that she bad hoped Frederick County could capitalize more on our history through tourism and then, hotels, motels, restaurants, and everybody would benefit. She concluded by asking why the industrial parks couldn't be located closer to I-81 where the roads could accommodate the traffic. Mr. Brandon Kuhn, a resident on 154 Gun Club Road in the Stonewall District, said that he was 15 years old and a freshman at James Wood High School. Mr. Kuhn spoke about the importance of preserving our historic resources for the education of future generations. Mr. Kuhn said that with unemployment so low, he did not know where the employees for the industry would come from. Ms. Gina. Forrester, a constituent of Stonewall District, stated that the proposed industrial park will adversely affect the air quality in Frederick County. She said that presently, without bringing any additional industries into operation, Frederick County does not meet State air quality standards and additional industry will compound the existing problem. Ms. Forrester stated that 55% of our labor market already comes from West Virginia and any new jobs generated by this industrial park will basically employ West Virginians. She said that this will drive up labor rates for our existing companies who will be forced to compete for labor in an already tight labor market. Ms. Forrester next spoke about the County's water supply and she named special interest groups who have been battling for its protection. She said that additional industry would compound our water difficulties at the taxpayers' expense. Ms. Forrester continued, speaking of the historical importance of the property and that tourism brings clean revenue into the community while preserving our heritage. She also spoke of how increased volumes of traffic and tractor trailers will further degrade the quality of life in Frederick County. Ms. Forrester said that if this rezoning is approved, it will be another example of the citizens best interests being set aside for developers' interests. She applauded the citizens who have filed a suit against the County to fight this rezoning. Mr. Todd Kern stated that this may be a good plan, but the people of Frederick County do not want it; he said it may be better located in New Jersey. Mr. Kerns said that increased tax funding by industry is a myth; industry just increases the burden. He said that all of the counties to the east of Frederick County have higher tax rates because of industry and uncontrolled growth. He commented that fills, cuts, and berms Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 585 -9 - are going to change the entire outlook of this land; battles were not contained in nice, neat boundary lines. Mr. Kern stated that all of First Winchester is developed, more than half of Third Winchester is developed; and about half of Stephenson's Depot is developed. He believed these areas should be preserved for future generations. Mr. Douglas Cochran, a resident of Opequon Estates in the Stonewall District, spoke about how he presented his concerns regarding traffic and road capacities to the Board of Supervisors during the Flying J rezoning. Mr. Cochran said that our State and local tax dollars have been used to widen the road in front of Flying J and to widen the northbound off ramp. He said that there are constant back-ups from Flying J to Route 11 and all the off -ramps; he said that VDOT has indicated that more state and local tax dollars will have to be spcn t:, replace the overpass due its the inability to handle the current volume of traffic. Mr. Cochran continued, stating that the Mid -Atlantic Industrial & Tech Center rezoning will create traffic issues ten times the magnitude of the Flying J. He mentioned about how the residents of the area will be affected by the increased truck traffic during their day -today activities. Mr. Cochran believed that placing heavy industry in the rural, residential area of the Route 11 corridor, with all the problems it invites, is a grave disservice to the residents of northern Frederick County. Mr. Mike Weber, a resident of Stonewall District, stated that his property borders the McCann property on two sides; he commented that the McCann property is agricultural land and the County should preserve some of the agricultural land. Mr. Weber believed the Board should hold the next public hearing in a larger facility because many people were not able to be heard. Mr. Weber questioned whether the applicant would pay for 50% or 100%ofthe lighted intersection at Old Charles Town Road and Route 11; he questioned whether the public water would be available to both the residents of the community and the industrial development, or would it be just for the industrial development; he believed an additional cemetery was located near the barn where the proposed rail is to go; he believed the proposed plans for the development should be finalized before the rezoning, particularly where water and sewer is planned to be run; and he raised concerns about only one access for the proposed industrial park. Mr. Weber expressed concern about the increased volume of traffic; he said that the Route 11 area near Crown, Cork & Seal is extremely dangerous and he has witnessed ten wrecks here in the last two weeks; he predicted that the County would be losing watershed; he predicted that the proposed industrial parl. will use up all of the sewer capacity that is available; he predicted that additional industry will require additional houses, which will require additional services; he was concerned that the quality of life and way of life in this area will be totally changed. Mr. Weber believed this was not the place for an industrial park; he said that it was a residential and agricultural area. He spoke about property taxes and assessment values. Mr. Weber was concerned about the diminishing agricultural business in the County and he asked when the last time agriculture was subsidized; he gave examples and amounts of some of the new industries that Frederick County had subsidized by comparison. Mr. Don Smith, a resident of Opequon Ridge III in Stephenson, spoke in opposition to the rezoning. Mr. Smith said that he has listened to many people who are opposed to this rezoning. Referring to the Flying J operation, Mr. Smith said that the tax payers are asked to give up their money to fix the problems that result. He raised concerns about the noise pollution and the increased traffic. He predicted that the characteristics of the neighborhood would change. Mr. Smith believed we should protect our valuable land. He suggested that Mr. Shockey donate his land to a preservation group. Mr. Darrill Bean suggested that the Commission table this rezoning because there were too many unanswered questions. Mr. Bean believed that Mr. Mark Smith could probably answer a lot of the questions asked by those present because he has worked with Mr. Smith. He believed there could be a little Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 586 sulm better planning done on the roads and buffers. Mr. Charles Ban spoke in opposition to the proposed rezoning. Mr. Barr said that we are stewards of this land and it is a bad idea to develop it with an industrial park. Mr. Ban said that he first saw the Shenandoah Valley in 1972 and it impressed him so much that in 1975, he moved here and never left. He said that industry growth begets industry. He did not believe that a large industrial base would lower our taxes. Mr. D. Wayne Nicholas, a resident of the Shawnee District, expressed concern about -a statement made during the staff report that the traffic portion of the impact analysis was not yet complete. Mr. Nicholas believed that addressing truck traffic entry onto Route 11 with a simple traffic light was inadequate and there needed to be a more efficient way of moving traffic. He was concerned how the local aquifer would be affected, if two million gallons per day is used by industry; he believed that local residential wells would be affected. He believed the quality of life for area residents would be affected by the traffic, the noise, and the air pollution. Mr. Nicholas said he was insulted by the $20,000 proffered by the applicant for fire and rescue services; he said that amount wasn't nearly enough to take care of fire and emergency services for an industrial park. Mr. Nicholas disagreed with the statement that a railroad spur will decrease truck traffic; he mentioned the inter -modal transport area in Warren County where every train coming in equals at least 55-60 trucks going out. Mr. Nicholas believed the rezoning should not be approved because there were too many loose ends that had not yet been addressed. Due to time restraints and other items remaining on the agenda, Chairman DeHaven closed the public comment portion of the meeting. Chairman DeHaven said that additional public hearings will be held until everyone has had an opportunity to share their views. The owner/applicant, Mr. Shockey, acknowledged there were some refinements that needed to be made to the proffers related to the comments received this evening. Mr. Shockey believed his proposal was still solid and viable. He sated that they wanted to do things right and wanted the right things to be done. Mr. Shockey requested that his rezoning be tabled and continued. tabling. Chairman DeHaven asked Mr. Shockey and Mr. Smith if they had a time period in mind for Mr. Shockey asked that the rezoning be tabled until the next available meeting. Upon motion made by Mr. Miller and seconded by Mr. Kriz, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby unanimously table Rezoning Application 404-00 of Mid -Atlantic Industrial & Tech Center (Shockey Companies) to rezone 208 acres from RA (Rural Areas) to M 1(Light Industrial) and 239 acres from RA (Rural Areas) to M2 (Industrial General) for an industrial and technology park until the next available meeting. Chairman DeHaven announced that this issue is tabled until the next available meeting when it will be scheduled for a full public hearing. Chairman DeHaven said that the Commission will continue this discussion and will continue to receive public input. He thanked everyone for their time, their patience, and their demeanor during the meeting. He believed it had been a very productive meeting and many concerns had been shared. He apologized to those who did not get an opportunity to speak or whom did not get an Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 587 -11 - opportunity to speak for as long as they would like. Chairman DeHaven suspected that the neat public hearing concerning this issue would not occur in the Board Room. He apologized for that as well, stating that the Commission had nor actually been able to perceive this amount of public participation when the meeting was scheduled. He thanked everyone for their time and for their contributions. Upon motion made by Mr. Marker and seconded by Mr. Wilson, the Commission unanimously made the petitions pertaining to this issue, plus letters from Mr. Glen Penton, Mr. Brett Morgan, and Mr. Jim Stillwell, a part of the official record. PUBLIC MEETING Master Development Plan 908-00 of Channing Drive, Land Bays 1-9, submitted by Greenway Engineering for 846 single-family urban lots and 22 acres of commercial. This property is located on the north side of Senseny Road, one mile east of Greenwood Road and is identified with P.I.N.s 55-A-206, 55-A-209, 55-A-211, 55-A-213, 65-A-30, 65-A-31, 65-A-39, 65 -A -39A, and 65-A-40 in the Stonewall Magisterial District. Action - Recommended Approval Mr. Evan A. Wyatt, Deputy Planning Director, read the background information and review agency comments. Mr. Wyatt said that the staffhas identified four potential issues: 1) Transportation Network - the applicant should revise the Master Development Plan (MDP) to identify connections that will not occur until the segments of Channing Drive and Madison Avenue are completed to serve as the primary means of access to the various phases; those local streets include the Woodrow Road connection to Carlisle Heights, the Morning Glory connection to Apple Ridge, and the Canyon Road connection to Senseny Glen; 2) Phase Plan - the MDP should be revised to eliminate the land bay concept and to develop a phase plan accounting for the total development of each section; 3) Environmental Features - information regarding the amount of each feature of development proposed to be disturbed or incorporated into open space needs to be described within a phase table of the MDP document; and, 4) Agency Comments - the Department of Public Works identified a potential for stormwater impacts on adjacent subdivisions, therefore, they request that certain design features be incorporated within the plan, including as -built drawings for required infrastructure improvements. Mr. Claus Bader of Greenway Engineering, the design company representing the applicant, came forward to address two questions from the Commission, whether the proposed phases would be in the same areas as the land bays and second, what trigger mechanisms would be available in the phased approach. Mr. Bader said that the phases would not be in the same areas as the land bays. He pointed out on a map where Phase I would be, but indicated that locations for Phases 2, 3, and 4 would have to be a "best guess" at this point ir. time. Mr. Bader said that his biggest trigger mechanism is tied to the 475th building permit, at which time they will have to construct Channing Drive to Valley Mill. He said that other items will be addressed through the regular review process. Mr. Bader said that they intend to comply with their proffer package and they will revise the MDP to comply with all of staffs comments. Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 588 -12 - Chairman DeHaven called for public comments and the following persons came forward to speak: Mrs. Marie F. Straub, a resident on Morning Glory Drive in the Apple Ridge Subdivision and a member of the Apple Ridge Subdivision Homeowners' Association, did not want to see Morning Glory Drive extended as a "through street" into the new development. She was concerned about a possible safety hazard, due to increased traffic and possible speeding. She said that her subdivision does not have sidewalks, curb and gutter, nor street lights, and the neighborhood children are often in the streets playing. In addition, she asked when and where a new elementary school was going to be built in this general vicinity to take care of the increase in elementary school students. Mr. Darrill Bean, representing his mother, was concerned that the ingress/egress to his mother's property be protected throughout the construction process. Mr. Randy Forrester, resident of the Apple Ridge Subdivision, believed that all the phases of the MDP should be finalized during this stage of development. Mr. Forrester next addressed the capacity of the schools and spoke about the difference between "physical" capacity and "practical" capacity. In addition, he said that many of the residents of this area that were present for this agenda item have already gone home, due to the lateness of the evening. Mr. Forrester suggested that no decision on this MDP be made until everyone has had an opportunity to speak. Ms. Trace Golden, resident on Morning Glory Drive, said that they have sold their land on morning Glory Drive due to this proposed development; unfortunately, they bought their new land in the area where the pending rezoning for the Mid -Atlantic Industrial & Tech Center is taking place. Ms. Golden said that there are too many houses being built, there are not enough schools for the children, and safety is a big concern with the parents and families here. Ms. Golden believed that the County representatives needed to listen to the voters, not big business. Mr. D. Wayne Nicholas, a resident of the Shawnee District, expressed concern about whether or not the FEMA maps used by the applicant to address water run-off were current and actively reflecting existing development. Mr. Nicholas was concerned about the impacts of development over the last 15 years on the local water tables with regard to runoff, storm water treatment, flooding, and downstream impacts. He asked who in Frederick County was responsible for monitoring development with regard to where stormwater was going. Mr. Bader came back to the podium to address some of the public comments. Mr. Bader said that when they are ready to begin the design work for Channing Drive, they will meet with Mr. Bean to make sure the Beans' access is maintained. In regards to Mr. Forrestor's concerns, Mr. Bader said that he is confident that the existing layout for Phase I is accurate and, although he can point out the future phases of development, the detailed design work has not yet begun for those areas. He said that it is possible that the road location may shift slightly due to the layout, however, they hope to minimize any changes. Finally, Mr. Bader addressed stormwater, stating that an aerial topo map was utilized; he stated that all of the design work needs to comply with current county ordinances with respect to quantity control and adjoining property owners can not be adversely impacted. Mr. Bader said that he will utilize the USGS quadsheets to determine overall drainage divides and they will actually drive over the drainage area to identify ground cover and get an accurate picture of the runoff leading to the lake. Frederick Courq Planning Conimission Minutes of November 15, 2000 Page 589 -13 - Commissioner Fisher suggested that the Morning Glory Drive connection be reconsidered because it created a direct access to Senseny Road. He was concerned that a speeding problem could result because the connection to Senseny Road would be via fairly straight roads. Other members of the Commission believed it was important to have local streets connect whenever possible for a number of reasons. The reasons given were that the local connections provide additional public safety enhancement, such as for school bus travel, mail delivery, and snow removal; the level of service of the overall road network is improved by not forcing all of the traffic into one particular area; and finally, there is convenience to the end-user, ie. the subdivision residents do not have to travel out onto a main road and then back in when there is an obvious connection opportunity. Upon motion made by Mr. Miller and seconded by Mr. Wilson, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby recommend approval of Master Development Plan #08-00 of Channing Drive, Land Bays 1-9, submitted by Greenway Engineering for 846 single-famiiy urban lots and 22 acres of commercial with the stipulation that the review agency comments be complied with, including the phase plan for the development. This recommendation for approval was made by the following majority vote: YES (TO APPROVE): Kriz, Miller, Ours, Thomas, Wilson, Marker, Light, Morris, Unger, DeHaven NO: Fisher ADJOURNMENT No further business remained to be discussed and the meeting adjourned at 11:00 p.m. by unanimous vote.

Existing entrance is adequate for proposed use. However, should use ever expand in the future, the entrance may have to be upgraded to VDOT minimum commercial standards. Inspections Department: Area of the existing dwelling to be utilized shall comply with The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code and Section 305, Use Group E (Educational) and Section 303, Use Group A (Assembly) of the BOCA National Building Code. Other code that would apply is CABO A 117.1-92, Accessible and Usable Buildings and Facilities. Please submit a floor plan of the area at the time of permit application for Change of Use and please note that a seal is required on the plan by a licensed Architect/Engineer for both A and E uses. ("E" use does not require a seal if occupancy load is under 50.) ADA parking and building access and egress shall be provided according to CABO Al 17.1-92 and BOCA, Chapter 11, along with accessible plumbing. Note Section 313, Mixed Use Groups of BOCA. Rhoda W. Kriz CUP 417-00 Page 2 December 21, 2000 Fire Marshal: A parking plan for these types of events will identify Fire Department access to the structure and curtilage. Plan approval is recommended. Health Department: The Health Department has no objections to the addition of wedding receptions and seminars. However, any food preparation should be catered from another facility and brought in. No more 60 persons at one time should attend the wedding receptions or seminars. The current permit for this property indicates a five -bedroom system design. This system is designed to handle 600 g.p.d. of water; there is no implied guarantee of future septic system performance by this department. Planning and Zoning: This application is a request to amplify the intensity of an existing cottage occupation. Currently, the property is being used as a bed and breakfast. If this Conditional Use Permit (CUP) is approved as requested, the property will also be used for weddings, wedding receptions, and other gatherings. The proposed use meets the conditions of a cottage occupation. A cottage occupation is allowed in the Rural Areas (RA) Zoning District with an approved CUP. The property is located along Apple Pie Ridge Road, approximately 1/3 of a mile north of James Wood High School and Apple Pie Ridge Elementary School. The lot itself is 19.138 acres in size. All adjoining lots are either residential or vacant in use. The property currently fits nicely into the residential nature of the surrounding area. In conjunction with the Frederick County Department of Fire and Rescue, the planning staff believes that the parking and access issue needs to be addressed in this request. In doing so, the staff recommends restricting parking anywhere in the access road. The purpose for this is to maintain complete circulation in the case a fire truck or ambulance is needed. In addition to this, the owner will need to maintain a 14 -foot -high clearance throughout the access road. Update: The Planning Commission tabled this item for 60 days at the November 1, 2000 public hearing because they requested more information about the nature of the proposed expansion. Specifically, the Planning Commission requested that the applicant prepare a list of rules and regulations to better show their intent. Since the November Planning Commission meeting, staffhas added several conditions to the proposed CUP. The applicant has also been in contact with the neighboring residents and has prepared a list of rules and regulations which they intend to follow. Staff did not incorporate this list into the set of conditions because it would not be consistent with the principle that a CUP should go with the land, rather than the applicant. Other conditions may be added should the Planning Commission or Board deem such conditions appropriate. Rhoda W. Kriz CUP #17-00 Page 3 December 21, 2000 STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 11-01-00 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: Approval of this conditional use permit would be appropriate with the following twelve conditions (conditions 1-4 were placed on the bed and breakfast on December 8, 1999): 1. All review agency comments and requirements shall be complied with at all times. 2. In accordance with Cottage Occupation sign requirements, signage for the proposed use may not exceed (4) four square feet in area. A sign permit will need to be issued by the County Building Inspections Department prior to the placement of a sign. 3. No more that (3) three bedrooms shall be utilized for the bed and breakfast operation. 4. Any expansion of the bed and breakfast shall require a new CUP. 5. Parking will not be permitted anywhere along the access road of the property if that parking prevents complete internal circulation. 6. The owner is responsible for keeping the trees and vegetation cut to at least 14 feet in height along the entire access road. 7. No more than 50 persons at one time may attend the weddings, wedding receptions, seminars, or other gatherings. 8. Except for music used during wedding ceremonies, all forms of music and dance are to be kept within the house. Music, whether performed or pre-recorded, should not be audible beyond the property lines. 9. The existing natural screening between the house and the adjoining properties is to be maintained in a healthy condition. 10. No wedding, reception or seminar will begin before 7:00 a.m. or last beyond 9:00 p.m. Weddings and receptions are to be limited to three hours in duration. 11. Any change in the location of the gatherings shall require a new CUP. O: \Agendas\COMMENTS\CUP's\2000\RhodaKriz2.

Donnie and Rachel Hamman CUP # 18-00 Page 2 December 21, 2000 Planning and Zoning: This application is a request to operate a cottage occupation in the Rural Areas (RA) Zoning District. Specifically, the applicants would like to use an existing barn on their property for sheet metal fabrication and the storage of business-related materials. The Frederick County Zoning Ordinance allows for a cottage occupation in the RA Zoning District with an approved CUP. The circumstances leading up to this request for a CUP application have involved an active violation case against the applicants and a court ruling on the matter. Staff opened a violation case against the applicants in July, shortly after a county resident reported a complaint on the matter. Then on October 31, 2000, the District Court ruled that the applicants were guilty of the storage of trash and debris on their property, the storage of inoperable vehicles, as well as the illegal operation of a business. The judge gave the applicants 30 days to comply with the first two offenses, and 90 days to obtain an approved CUP or the business would have to be removed. As of the most recent inspection by staff, prior to the preparation of this report, violations still exist on the applicant's property. The lot is approximately 8 '/z acres in size. Located on the property is the applicants primary residence, a barn, and a couple storage sheds. The adjoining properties include residential, agricultural, vacant, or mixture of the three. An industrial business would not be an appropriate use in the area. When assessing the ability for a sheet metal fabrication business to comply with the cottage occupation definition, staff reviewed the cottage occupation definition. A cottage occupation is defined by the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance as: "An occupation or profession customarily carried on in a dwelling or an accessory building, which: A. Actually is carried on wholly within the principal residential building or an accessory building or structure. B. Is carried on by no more than one (1) person other than members of the family residing on the premises; and C. Is clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the dwelling unit for residential purposes." The applicants have informed staff that their business has two employees that do not live on the premises. Occasionally, these employees would come to the property and assist in the sheet metal fabrication process. Staff believes that the fabrication business is an industrial use and is not appropriate as a cottage occupation. Additionally, the assistance of employees at the subject property would not be in conformance with the cottage occupation definitions. Therefore, staff believes that this request is inappropriate. Donnie and Rachel Hamman CUP # 18-00 Page 3 December 21, 2000 STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 1-03-01 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: Staff is of the opinion that this request for a CUP be denied for the following three reasons: 1. The proposed use is not allowed as a cottage occupation due to the number of employees. 2. The property has been in violation for at least six months, and is currently still in violation despite a court ruling on the matter. 3. The business is inconsistent with the nature of the surrounding area, and neighboring residents may be adversely affected by the presence of this business.

Existing entrance is adequate for proposed use. However, should use ever expand in the future, the entrance may have to be upgraded to VDOT minimum commercial standards. Inspections Department: The area of the existing building to be utilized shall comply with the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code and Section 304, Use Group B (Business) of the BOCA National Building Code. Other code that applies is CABO Al 17.1-92, Accessible and Usable Buildings and Facilities. Please submit a floor plan of the area of existing structures to be utilized at the time of change of use building permit application. A permit shall be issued and final inspection approved for the new use prior to operation. Fred H. Rhoton CUP Page 2 December 21, 2000 Fire Marshal: Access to storage buildings maintained clear. Additional access to storage available from Fulton property. Plan approval is recommended. Health Department: After discussing the situation with Mr. Rhoton concerning his business, he assured us that there would be no employees inside his home; therefore, the Health Department has no objection to Mr. Rhoton having a home improvement business at his house. No employees are allowed to work at his home full-time, unless septic system has been approved. Planning and Zoning: The applicant has requested permission to operate a Cottage Occupation from his property. Cottage Occupations are permitted in the RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District upon approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Specifically, this request would enable a home improvement business to operate from the subject property. Cottage Occupation is defined by the Zoning Ordinance as: An occupation or profession customarily carried on in a dwelling unit or an accessory building, which: A. Actually is carried on wholly within the principal residential building or an accessory building or structure; B. Is carried on by no more than one (1) person other than members of the family residing on the premises; and C. Is clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the dwelling unit for residential purposes. The applicant intends to utilize two existing 12' x 12' buildings for storage of materials related to the business. The use of these existing accessory structures for the business is the catalyst necessitating the CUP for a Cottage Occupation. No individuals (beyond that allowed by the Cottage Occupation definition) or vehicular traffic associated with the business, are permitted at the property. Based on the location of the property and the nature of the business, this request does not appear to negatively impact the surrounding properties. Fred H. Rhoton CUP Page 3 December 21, 2000 STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR THE 01-03-01 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: Approval of this conditional use permit would be appropriate with the following conditions: All review agency comments and requirements, and the definition of a cottage occupation shall be complied with at all times. 2. In accordance with Cottage Occupation sign requirements, signage for the proposed use may not exceed four (4) square feet .in area. No outdoor storage of any material associated with the Cottage Occupation shall occur outside a completely enclosed structure. 4. No more than one (1) employee and their vehicle shall be permitted on-site. 5. Any change of use or expansion of the approved Cottage Occupation shall require a new Conditional Use Permit.

Existing entrance is adequate for proposed use. However, should use ever expand in the future, the entrance may have to be upgraded to VDOT minimum commercial standards. Inspections Department: No comment required. Fire Marshal: Recommend portable fire extinguishers. Tree limbs inhibit emergency vehicle access to properties. A vertical clearance of 14.5 feet is required per NFPA 299 for the width of roadway. A dry hydrant at the pond entering Spaid Lane would benefit all property owners with adequate water supply for firefighting and reduced insurance. Plan approval is recommended. Health Department: The Health Department has no objection to Mr. Spaid's proposal since Roy S. Spaid CUP Page 2 December 21, 2000 he has stated that the facility will have no employees except family members living in the existing house. Note that the Health Department cannot address the disposal of the dog waste. Dog waste is considered a commercial and industrial waste and is regulated by the Dept. of Environmental Quality (DEQ). Questions concerning the proper disposal of dog waste should be directed to the DEQ (540) 574-7800. Planning and Zoning: Dog kennels are a permitted use in the RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District with an approved conditional use permit. This application is the result of a complaint filed with this office. The applicant has advised that the kennel currently is only used for housing and breeding dogs that belong to him. This site consists of twenty (20) acres and is well screened from Back Creek Road (Route 704) by mature woodland and a steep terrain. The east side of the nearest kennel is 51 feet from the adjoining property line, the west side of the nearest kennel is 240 feet from the adjoining property line, and the south side of the nearest kennel is 420 feet from the adjoining property line. As with any kennel, noise from this type of business negatively impacting adjoining property owners is a concern. Staff believes that the location of the property is appropriate for the operation of a kennel with a number of conditions applied. STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR THE 01-03-01 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: Approval of this conditional use permit would be appropriate with the following conditions: 1. All review agency comments and requirements shall be complied with at all times. 2. This permit is for a kennel (non -boarding) only. Only dogs owned by the owner will be boarded in the kennel at any time. 3. Inspection of the facilities by the Animal Control Officer shall be required to determine if the the housing for the dogs is adequate and appropriate. 4. No more than twenty (20) dogs shall be boarded within the facility at any given time. 5. All associated materials and supplies shall be stored within an enclosed structure. 6. All dogs kept at the kennel must be controlled so as not to be a nuisance to any adjoining Roy S. Spaid CUP Page 3 December 21, 2000 property by either barking or roaming free. 7. All dogs at the kennel must be controlled to limit the impact on adjoining properties. All dogs shall be kept within a fenced enclosure and must be placed inside a building after 8:00 p.m. 8. All requirements of the Frederick County Code and the Code of Virginia pertaining to dog kennels shall be complied with at all times. 9. Any expansion of the kennel shall require approval of a new Conditional Use Permit. 0:\Agendas\COMMENTS\CUP's\2000\Roy Spaid.wpd ) D. & BRENDA S.

Stephens City Fire & Rescue Co.: At the present time there have been no corrections to the traffic congestion concerns at the intersection of Fairfax Pike/Town Run Lane/Aylor Road/Interstate I-81. The Stephens City Fire & Rescue Department cannot support any additional (residential or commercial growth in this area until these concerns are addressed with a viable solution for the response and access of emergency vehicles. Sanitation Authority: We have water and sewer capacity to serve this project. County Engineer: See attached letter from Harvey E. Strawsnyder, , Director of Public Works, dated 11-29-2000. Parks & Recreation: Plan appears to conform with the requirements established by the county. However, with the developer's contribution for recreation being only 50% of the impact module, consideration should be given to providing active recreation areas with the development. Frederick Co. Public Schools: See attached letter from Al Orndorff, Admin. Asst. to the Superintendent, dated 11/29/00. County Attorney: Stickley Drive extended and paid for by whom? Once signed by owner, appears alright. Planning & Zoning_ 1) Site History The original Frederick County Zoning Map (U.S.G.S. Stephens City Quadrangle) depicts the zoning for the parcel proposed for rezoning as A-2 (Agricultural General) District. The A-2 (Agricultural General) District zoning classification was modified to RA (Rural Areas) District on February 14, 1990 during the comprehensive amendment to the county's Zoning Ordinance. The initial location of the county's Urban Development Area (UDA) traversed approximately 23 acres of the I05 -acre parcel. The applicant submitted a request to the county to incorporate the entire acreage into the UDA. This request was recommended favorably by the Planning Commission and approved by the Board of Supervisors during their October 25, 2000 meeting. Southern Hills REZ #01-01 Page 3 December 22, 2000 2) Location The 105 -acre parcel is located southeast of Interstate 81 Exit 307; approximately 3/4 mile south of Fairfax Pike (Route 277); along the east side of Town Run Lane (Route 1012). Fairfax Pike is classified as a minor arterial roadway, and Town Run Lane is classified as a local road. The 105 -acre parcel is located within the county's Urban Development Area (UDA) and the Sewer and Water Service Area (S WSA). This acreage does not fall within the boundaries of an adopted land use plan for the county. The 105 -acre parcel is located in an area that is rural in nature. Adjoining properties include large tracts that are utilized for agricultural purposes with a few large residential lots to the south. The Scothorn tract immediately adjacent to the east is within the Double Church Agricultural and Forestal District. 3) Site Suitability The 105 -acre parcel contains areas of steep slope, streams, floodplain associated with Stephens Run, and woodlands as defined by county ordinance. The general site development plan calls for the provision of common open space within the floodplain areas and some of the areas defined as steep slope. It is uncertain if this delineation will comply with the maximum allowance for open space as permitted by county ordinance, as the applicant's Impact Analysis Statement does not indicate percentages of the total site area proposed for these set -asides. The 105 -acre parcel has approximately %2 -mile of road frontage along Town Run Lane (Rt. 10 12) which is within the VDOT secondary system of roads. By policy, the parcel is entitled to be served by public water and sewer. The Frederick County Sanitation Authority has indicated that adequate capacities exist to serve the development proposal for this parcel. The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey identifies structures within the proximity of the 105 -acre parcel. None of these structures are identified as potentially significant historic resources. 4) Proffer Statement The applicant has submitted a proffer statement which has been signed by the owner, notarized, and reviewed by the County Attorney's Office. The applicant has proffered to Southern Hills REZ #01-01 Page 4 December 22, 2000 develop a maximum of 250 single family residential lots; to restrict the development of multi- family units; to extend Stickley Drive (Rt. 1085) to connect with Town Run Lane (Rt. 1012); and to provide a monetary contribution for each residential building lot to offset impacts to county services. 5) Potential Impacts and Issues a) Transportation The applicant's traffic impact analysis statement indicates that the proposed development of the 105racre tract will generate 2,500 daily vehicle trips on average. The applicant recognizes that all of this traffic cannot be supported by Town Run Lane (Rt. 10 12) and indicates that there will be a need to extend Stickley Drive (Rt. 1085) to Town Run Lane to facilitate traffic movement from this parcel to Fairfax Pike (Route 277). The applicant indicates that the Town Run Lane connection to Fairfax Pike will be severed as a result of the improvements to Interstate 81 Exit 307 and that VDOT will consider design alternatives which may result in the relocation of the Exit 307 interchange to the south within the proximity of this parcel. The VDOT comment, dated November 21, 2000, identifies that Town Run Lane currently has an average daily traffic count of 210 vehicle trips. The VDOT comment states that the existing road structure is inadequate to handle the projected traffic volume generated by this site which will increase traffic by approximately 1,200% of the current volume. VDOT believes that the applicant should provide a traffic impact analysis which considers signalized intersections; the development of turn lanes and tapers into the project site; and the improvement of Town Run Lane from the intersection of Fairfax Pike to the project site. The applicant's general development plan calls for the extension of Stickley Drive to connect with Town Run Lane to the north of the 105 -acre tract. This design is prudent, as the Level of Service at the intersection of Town Run Lane and Fairfax Pike will decrease significantly as a result of this development. However, the applicant's proposal does not indicate plans to provide, or participate in traffic signalization at the Stickley Drive intersection with Fairfax Pike. The need for traffic signalization along Fairfax Pike is paramount to facilitate left turn movements and maintain the Level of Service along this road system. The applicant's traffic impact analysis statement does not provide for current or future Level of Service details at the proposed Stickley Drive intersection with Fairfax Pike; however, it would stand to reason that a significant percentage of vehicle trips would make left turn movements; therefore, this intersection would most likely operate at less than a Level of Service C without traffic signalization. Southern Hills REZ #01-01 Page 5 December 22, 2000 b) Community Facilities Public Schools The proposed residential development would increase student enrollment capacities, thus impacting Middletown Elementary School; Robert E. Aylor Middle School; and Sherando High School. The Frederick County Public School Administration comment identifies that the school facilities within this area of the county are nearing maximum design capacities. In order to project the number of school-age children that could be expected to be generated from the project, staffhas utilized the averages that are used as multipliers in the county's Capital Facilities Fiscal Impact Model. Projected School Enrollment Impact Total Building Elementary Middle School High School Total School - Permits Issued School Impact Impact @. 14 Impact @ .17 Age Children @.39 Pupils/Dwelling Pupils/Dwelling On Average Pupils/Dwelling 250 98 35 43 176 Fire and Rescue Services The comments received from the county's Fire and Rescue Department and Company 11 - Stephens City Fire and Rescue Company (the first response company) express concerns pertaining to increased transportation volumes that would be generated by any new residential development in this area, as well as the monetary proffer that is being offered by the applicant to offset impacts to fire and rescue services. The Stephens City Fire and Rescue Company is located on the west side of Interstate 81 and is required to cross the bridge at Interstate 81 Exit 307 to provide emergency service to the residents and traveling public in this area of the county. The Fire and Rescue Chief for Company 11 has requested that no new residential projects be approved by the county in this area until a viable solution is in place for the response and access of emergency vehicles. Southern Hills REZ #01-01 Page 6 December 22, 2000 Solid Waste Disposal The Department of Public Works has identified an impact to the citizen convenience center site at the old weight scales near the Town of Middletown. The Department of Public Works comment states that the proposed development will negatively impact this facility and may require and expansion of this site to serve the future residents of this project. Parks and Recreation The Department of Parks and Recreation comment identifies that the monetary proffers received from new residential projects do not allow their department to keep pace with the recreational demands of the county residents. Therefore, the Department of Parks and Recreation has recommended that the developer establish active recreational areas within the proposed development to provide on-site opportunities for the future residential end users. C) Ewing Fami� Cemetery A family cemetery exists within the southeast portion of the 105 -acre parcel. This cemetery, owned by the Ewing family is identified as circa 1750 and contains grave sites dating to 1856. Staff met with representatives of the Ewing family and was advised that the family actively maintains this area through an agreement with the property owner. The applicant's general development plan calls for the development of residential lots in the area in which the cemetery exists. Representatives of the Ewing family advised staff that their concerns include the ability to maintain access to, and continue the use of, this area. In order to ensure that this desire is realized, the Ewing family requests that the applicant establish a deeded area for this purpose; that access is maintained to the family cemetery throughout the development phase process; that a curb cut is established to ensure access to the family cemetery from the proposed public street system; that the property owner provides the ability to identify any grave sites that may fall outside of the currently established family cemetery area prior to development; that the family cemetery be improved to be enclosed with a rod -iron fence with an eight -foot wagon gate; and that a disclosure statement be established within all property deeds advising future lot purchasers of the proximity of the family cemetery and the right of the Ewing family to utilize and maintain the deeded area for perpetuity. Southern Hills REZ #01-01 Page 7 December 22, 2000 d) Adjoining Properties As previously mentioned, the Scothorn parcel, and other parcels within close proximity of the 105 -acre parcel, are within the county's Double Church Agricultural and Forestal District. The applicant's general development plan identifies an area of open space along the eastern property limits due to the location of Stephens Run which will provide some separation between the agricultural land uses and the proposed development. However, it would be prudent to require the developer to provide a disclosure statement within all future property deeds and homeowner covenants advising future purchasers of the proximity of this proposed development to the Double Church Agricultural and Forestal District, as well as the agricultural land users rights as identified in the Right To Farm Act. e) Proffer Statement The applicant has proffered to extend Stickley Drive from its current terminus to the east to connect with Town Run Lane (Rt. 1012). This extension would require the applicant to develop a public roadway through a parcel owned by an adjoining property owner (Stimpson). In order for this improvement to occur, the applicant would need to obtain a deeded right-of-way easement through this property which currently does not exist. Therefore, this component of the applicant's proffer statement is not valid at this time. STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 01/03/01 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: The 105 -acre parcel proposed for residential land use is located within the county's Urban Development Area (UDA) and the Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. The 105 -acre parcel has significant frontage along a state -maintained road and can be served with public water and sewer with adequate capacities. Several concerns have been expressed by the various review agencies regarding the rezoning of this 105 -acre parcel. These concerns include impacts to the road network system; impacts to public school facilities; impacts to the solid waste disposal citizen's convenience site; and the difficulties of providing fire and rescue service to residential land uses in this area of the county. Southern Hills REZ #01-01 Page 8 December 22, 2000 The applicant has submitted a proffer statement to attempt to mitigate the impacts associated with this residential rezoning proposal. The proffered conditions include a monetary offer to offset costs associated with the capital facilities needs of various county service providers, the offer to limit the number of residential units to 250 single family lots, and the offer to extend Stickley Drive to Town Run Lane. Staff believes that the applicant should adequately address the following issues to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission prior to a recommendation being forwarded to the Board of Supervisors regarding this proposal: 1) The applicant should demonstrate the current Level of Service (LOS) conditions at the intersections of Town Run Lane and Stickley Drive with Fairfax Pike, and the future LOS conditions assuming the build -out of this project. 2) The applicant should identify the scope of improvements that are planned for Town Run Lane and indicate when the improvements will occur, who is responsible for the cost of the improvements, and if those commitments are planned to be incorporated into the proffer statement for this project. 3) The applicant should indicate what agreements exist to obtain a deeded easement from the Stimpson parcel that provides for an adequate right-of-way width to allow for the extension of Stickley Drive to Town Run Lane. 4) The applicant should advise the Planning Commission if plans exist to provide for traffic signalization at the Stickley Road intersection with Fairfax Pike, and indicate when the improvements will occur, who is responsible for the cost of the improvements, and if those commitments are planned to be incorporated into the proffer statement for this project. 5) The applicant should address the concerns expressed by the Fire and Rescue Service division regarding viable solutions for emergency vehicle access and regarding the proposed monetary proffer to offset impacts to fire and rescue capital facilities costs. 6) The applicant should indicate how they can mitigate impacts associated with the increased use of the citizens convenience center and the need to expand that facility. 7) The applicant should advise the Planning Commission if there is the potential to provide for active recreational areas within the proposed residential development. 8) The applicant should indicate how they plan to accommodate the desires of the Ewing family to preserve access to and improve the area of the existing family cemetery. 9) The applicant should advise the Planning Commission how they plan to advise future lot purchasers of on-site and adjoining property issues including the Ewing family cemetery, the Double Church Agricultural and Forestal District, and the lagoon sites owned by the Town of Stephens City and the Frederick County Sanitation Authority_ 0 Wgmdas\COMMENTS\REZONING\Staff Report\SouthemHills.wpd iL ERRELL, WILLIAM HENRY 85 A 138 Frederick County, Virginia Rezoning Application Materials And Impact Analysis Statement For The Dorothy Carbaugh Estate Property SOUTHERN HILLS Opequon Magisterial District October 2000 Prepared by: Gilbert W.

The impact analysis addresses traffic issues in a general way. However, VDOT concerns may be extended to other developments, both residential and commercial in the general area of this proposed Southern Hills concept plan. A glimpse at the Frederick County Index Map appears to reveal approximately three square miles of residential performance: residential, recreational community and commercial areas which have potential impacts on VDOT facility improvement studies in the vicinity of the Southern Hills concept plan. As indicated in a letter dated 08/24/00 from Mr. Steven A. Melnikoff to your office, the portion of the Frederick County Rezoning Application addressing VDOT and County needs under the Impact Analysis/Traffic (Pages 4, 5 & 6) should be included in the Impact Analysis presented for VDOT review. Among VDOT concerns which should be addressed are: Improvement of Route 1012, Town Run Lane. The attached typical section indicating the roadway width and pavement structure on existing Route 1012 demonstrate the inadequacy of the existing structure to support the projected 2500 TPD anticipated to access Southern Hills. Mr. Charles E. Maddox, Jr. November 21, 2000 Ref: Southern Hills Concept Plan Page #2 The application to rezone should address how and who would provide the necessary improvements to Route 1012: a) County Six Year Plan b) Developer participation in cost and/or construction c) Other sources of participation Please note the improvements should address the heavy increase in traffic volumes to be generated onto the Route 1012 facility. Current VDOT estimate (1999) is at 210 AADT, the proposed 2500 TPD generated by Southern Hills represents a tremendous impact on the existing typical section (copy attached). Development of turn lanes and tapers should also be considered. Traffic impact should include consideration of signalized intersections. Since no VDOT improvement plan exists for the Route 1012 facility, the Southern Hills concept should address improvements beginning at the Route 277 intersection with Route 647. Please note a copy of this letter and all previous correspondence regarding the referenced project has been forwarded to our Staunton District, Office for their review and information. We look forward to receiving and reviewing a more complete rezoning package whenever available. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call.

We recommend that this extension be included in the initial phase of the project development. 2) The proposed stormwater ponds shall be constructed prior to the construction of the roads and related site development. The stormwater ponds shall be designed to include sediment control. 3) The county does not plan to provide a dumpster specifically for this project. The project in general will have a negative impact on the county's citizens' convenience site located near Middletown, Virginia. The proposed project may require an expansion of this site to serve the residents that will occupy the additional 260 single family dwellings. The above comments should be reflected in the revised impact analysis. Sincerely, Harvey. . trawsnyder, Jr., P. .

It is my understanding the proposed rezoning from Ra to RP will allow for the construction of 250 homes. You have also indicated the land to be rezoned is 105 acres in size at the following location: South of Stephens City, east of Interstate 81; 0.8 miles south of Route 277 (Fairfax Pike) on the east side of Route 1012 (Town Run Lane) Residential development in this portion of Frederick County has resulted in the schools serving this area having student enrollments nearing maximum design capacity. The proposed monetary proffer of 53,581 per building permit will assist the county in addressing capital improvement projects for future school facilities. The cumulative impact of this project and others of a similar nature, coupled with the number of approved, undeveloped residential lots in this area, will necessitate the future construction of new school facilities to accommodate increased student enrollment. The impact of the proposed rezoning on current and future school needs should be considered during the approval process. Sincerely, Al Orndorff Administrative Assistant to the Superintendent PC- Dr. William C- Dean, Supenntendent of Schools Mr- Robert W- Cleaver, Assistant Superintendent for Administration AO -6623889 Ext 112 1415 Amherst Street, Post Office Box 3508, Winchester, VA 226042546 FAX 540-722-2788 L./Plannin^g/Southem Hills Impact Analysis Introduction The site of Southern Hills is the Dorothy Carbaugh Estate Property located immediately south of the former Stephens City Wastewater Treatment Facility and the Frederick County Wastewater Treatment Facility. The site is accessed by way of Town Run Lane which has a direct connection to Route 277 at the interchange with Interstate 81. A portion of this site has been included since the 1980's in the comprehensive plan urban development area (UDA). Recently upon recommendation of the comprehensive plan subcommittee of the Planning Commission, the unanimous recommendation of the Planning Commission and action by the Board of Supervisors, this site has been deemed to be entirely within the urban development area. Site Suitability The site is mostly cleared as shown on the attached photograph. A description of the property is contained in Deed Book 163 Page 274 described as PIN 85-A-138. The site rises from a low elevation along Stephens Run of 685 elevation to a high of 765. The site can best be described as gently rolling with some steep slopes near the stream channel. A flood plain exists along the north and east side of the project. Ample utilities exist within close proximity of the site. The site is underlain by Martinsburg Shale characteristic of other lands within the urban development area of Frederick County. Surrounding Properties The site is bounded by undeveloped land along Interstate 81 on the west, farms on the south and east, and the developed urban development area on the north including former wastewater treatment facilities, as well as a townhouse development and emerging commercially zoned land. The site can be adequately screened and buffered from all adjacent uses. Lands to the southeast are intensively farmed and require consideration of a buffer of some type. Traffic Traffic impacts are a substantial issue in this proposed rezoning. The site will generate 2,500 trips per day by the proffered density utilizing the ITE study. The intersection with Route 277 has been designated as a problem intersection requiring substantial improvements both as Route 277 is widened and also when Interstate 81 is improved. The Route 277 improvement project by VDOT calls for the relocation of the Aylor Road intersection near Interstate 81 to a point east which aligns with Stickley Drive. This activity will "take" the Wendy's restaurant and result in a relocation of Aylor Road to this new intersection. The improvement of the Interstate 81 interchange will close the Town Run Lane intersection and provide for access through Stickley Lane to the new Aylor Road intersection with Route 277 (see attached plan). A proffer of this rezoning is to provide the right-of-way and initial road improvements necessary to establish this traffic pattern. This activity will eliminate the traffic impact on the Route 277 stoplight at Town Run Lane. It also affords the opportunity to revise traffic patterns in the area which may assist in the State study for Interstate access locations along the Interstate 81 corridor. Recent meetings with State officials has indicated a relocation of the Route 277 interchange to a point south and lining up with the new Stickley Drive access road could be a better solution than improvement of the existing interchange. A study of this alternative has been agreed to by VDOT at the time 81 design studies are performed. A full traffic analysis of this situation will be prepared at the time of master development plan approval for comment by VDOT and local planning officials. Road improvements will be based on needs established by this traffic analysis. Sewage Conveyance and Treatment The site can be served by gravity sewer extension to the Frederick County Sanitation Authority facilities located to the north. The 250 houses on this site will generate approximately 50,000 gallons per day of wastewater based on the monthly average water usage in the urban development area. As of the September operating history of the Parkins Mill Facility, the plant is operating at 65% capacity allowing space in the plant for this project. There are no known transmission line issues which would prevent adequate service to this project. Water Supply Water service would be extended along Town Run Lane to this site. The water demand for this project would be 50,000 gallons per day and there are no known deficiencies that would prevent adequate service from being provided to this project subject to FCSA comment. Site Drainage Site drainage would go directly to the Stephens Run stream channel. Along the way stormwater management facilities would be constructed to meet siltation control and stormwater peak flow discharge requirements of the County and the State. The site storm system would be designed to VDOT standards but that there are no unusual issues surrounding drainage that would affect utilization of the site. Solid Waste Disposal Facilities The solid waste would be handled by contract hauler or by owner access to dumpster locations provided by the County. Each home would generate approximately 12 lbs. of solid waste per day for a total of 1.5 tons per day created by this project. Recent consultation with County officials would indicate that there is no limitation to landfill facility that would prevent this project from being serviced. Historic Sites and Structures There are no known historic sites or structures on this site. Impact on Community Facilities Frederick County's capital impact model has been run to reflect the impacts associated with this project. Proffers have been created that intend to mitigate the associated impacts as presented. A copy of the impact model output is attached.

Before development, this office will require a complete set of construction plans for review. Entrances will have to be constructed to VDOT minimum standards to allow for safe egress and ingress of the property. See attached letter dated 11-28-00 from Barry J. Sweitzer, Trans. Roadway Engineer with [DOT. Inspections Department: All structures are 50+ feet from property lines. No comment required at this time. Fire Marshal: Requirements of Frederick County Chapter 90; water supplies for fire fighting. Plan approval is recommended. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. Butler Manufacturing Co. Subdivision Page 2 December 21, 2000 Health Department: Before the Health Department proceeds, a written statement must be submitted explaining exactly what the applicant is proposing. Approval cannot be given until the owner is granted approval from the Office of Water Programs on both commercial properties. According to the plat, there is no easement granted to parcel one to allow a force main access to the existing system. A conference with the Environmental Supervisor I and Environment 1 District Manager, must occur before approval can be determined. This mound system currently will process 600 gallons per day. The owner must be clear on how much sewage and water usage will be processed from Lot 2. Planning and Zoning: Public Meeting_ Requirement The Subdivision Ordinance requires that land divisions in the Ml (Light Industrial) Zoning District, without an approved master development plan, be presented to the Board of Supervisors for final approval. This project is zoned M1 and does not contain an approved MDP; therefore, Board review and action is necessary. Staff Review This parcel presently contains two buildings currently utilized for manufacturing. The immediately surrounding properties are dominated by agricultural and residential uses. The proposed division would establish two lots: Lot 1: 21.0483 acres and Lot 2: 12.8969 acres. As state road frontage is limited, the submitted plats indicate that aneasement would be utilized for a shared entrance accessing the properties. Staff encourages this shared entrance as no new entrances would need to be created on Woodbine Road. STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 01-03-01 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: Staff recommends approval of this subdivision application contingent upon the applicant's satisfying all review agency comments.

I wanted the members of the Planning Commission also to be aware of my opinion as an adjacent property owner in time for the January 3, 2001 meeting, since I will not be able to attend. Sincerely, Mary G. Fetter RECEIVED Js L 2 BOO DEPT, OF FLM 1\11i-lOiDEJELOPMENT 212 Woodcrest Drive Winchester VA 22603 December 16, 2000 Rhoda W. Kriz 547 Apple Pie Ridge Road Winchester 22603 Dear Rhoda, I have read the Rules and Regulations that you have provided for our review. While I appreciate your attempt to place some sort of control over your proposed activities, that still does not override my belief that an expansion of your current CUP is further advancing a commercial venture in a totally residential neighborhood. I find the introduction of a facility that would offer seminars and wedding receptions to be inappropriate to the existing complexion of this area. I should also add that this situation has been the cause of considerable discussion and anxiety among many of us who would be effected by the potential noise, activity and increased traffic. It is my concern that you could not guarantee control over guests' behavior, noise level and general activity level. I4*6 this reason that I must state my opposition to the request for expansion of your existing CUP. Yours truly, Mary G. Fetter Dear Rhoda, As promised, I said I would get back to you on your Conditional Use Permit (CUP) request. First of all, I ask myself this question? If I had my preference, would I want a business in my neighborhood? The answer is obviously no. Your CUP request is to have seminars and weddings, along with the bed and breakfast. Could I live with this? Probably. Only if I know the owners and could trust whether good judgment would be used. I know Rhoda and George Kriz and I believe they would use proper discretion. However, I emphatically state that there must be notarized conditions attached to the CUP which are the following: a. The CUP becomes null and void if the Krizs sell the property, if they become incapacitated and can not manage the property themselves, or if they are deceased. b. The CUP has to be re -certified every seven years. c. The CUP can not be operated by their heirs or passed on to their heirs. d. The CUP can not be expanded to anything else other than seminars, weddings or bed and breakfast. e. The CUP must include the documented rules that the Krizs defined in their letter to the neighbors. If these 5 conditions are made part of the CUP, I would not strongly oppose the CUP. I am only speaking for myself and I can not speak for the other neighbors. Sincerely, Robert K. Fetter /z1! Da Rhoda W. Kriz CUP # 17-00 Page 3 January 3, 2001 STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 11-01-00 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: Approval of this conditional use permit would be appropriate with the following twelve eleven conditions (conditions 1-4 were placed on the bed and breakfast on December 8, 1999): All review agency comments and requirements shall be complied with at all times. 2. In accordance with Cottage Occupation sign requirements, signage for the proposed use may not exceed (4) four square feet in area. A sign permit will need to be issued by the County Building Inspections Department prior to the placement of a sign. 3. No more that (3) three bedrooms shall be utilized for the bed and breakfast operation. 4. Any expansion of the bed and breakfast shall require a new CUP. 5. Parking will not be permitted anywhere along the access road of the property if that parking prevents complete internal circulation. 6. The owner is responsible for keeping the trees and vegetation cut to at least i-4 provide a minimum vertical clearance of 14.5 feet in height along the entire access road. 7 The maximum occupancy load during any wedding, wedding reception, seminar, or other gathering shall be 50 persons. Except for music used during wedding ceremonies, all forms of music and dance are to be kept within the house. Music, whether performed or pre-recorded, should not be audible beyond the property lines. 9. The existing natural screening between the house and the adjoining properties is to be maintained in a healthy condition. 10. No wedding, reception or seminar will begin before 7:00 a.m. or last beyond 9:00 p.m. Weddings and receptions are to be limited to three hours in duration. 11. All gatherings, other than wedding ceremonies are to be held within the house. Wedding ceremonies shall be permitted within the lawn area directly in front of the house. Any change in the location of the gatherings shall require a new CUP. 0: W gendas\COMMENTS\CUP's\2000\RhodaKriz2B.CUP.wpd 1/3/01 Department of Planning and Development County of Frederick Members of Department of Planning We would like to express to you our feelings in regard to the Conditional Use Permit requested by Rhoda Kriz. We feel, like some of the other concerned parties, that it would not be in our best interest for such a request to be granted. In addition to the issues already raised by our neighbors, we have a concern about the precedent that would be set. If this permit is granted, what will happen when the next individual decides to request a permit to start a business of some sort? We understand that Mrs. Kriz intends to do all in her power to see that the conditions she outlined will be adhered to. However, that may be more difficult than she thinks. We hate to have the privacy and peacefulness of this neighborhood disrupted by a business such as requested. Paul and a Hillyard 0 hiliyad ❖ ❖ G. W. Clifford &4ssociates, Inc To: Mr Evan Wyatt, Planning Director CC: Mr David Holliday From: Charles E. Maddox, Jr PE Date: 1/l/01 Re: Southern Hills, Staff Issues The following are the requested applicant responses to staff comments of Dec22. ,2000. Responses are in italic and under the staff comment, for ease of review and reference "Staff believes that the applicant should adequately address the Mowing issues to the satisfaction of the Planning Commission prior to a recommendation being forwarded to the Board of Supervisors regarding this proposal:" 1) The applicant should demonstrate the current Level of Service (LOS) conditions at the intersections of Town Run Lane and Stickley Drive with Fairfax Pike, and the .future LOS conditions assuming the build -out of this project. The intersection in question is scheduled by VDOT to become the Primary intersection on Rt277 East of I-81 . It will support traffic from the relocated Aylor Road as well as Stickley Drive. Further , it is VDOT's Plan as presented in their Public Hearings on the Rte 277 design, to extend Stickley Drive to Town Run Lane, thus allowing contolled access to Town Run Lane from Rte 277 and the I-81 Interchange.It is obvious that VDOT plans to provide stoplight control to the subject intersection when the upgrade is performed. Also, the (540) 667-2139 (540) 665-0493,/ax 1 January 1, 2001 Percentage of use of this expanded intersection by Southern hills will be very small in relation to this expanded use. Finally, any stoplight improvements done now , because of Right of Way acquisition and shifts In roadway centerlines ,will be replaced when the VDOT Rte 277 project is constructed. In summary, it is the applicants position that construction of Stickley Drive extended and improvement of Town Run Lane are a more than adequate "Fair Share" for mitgation of traffic impacts. It improves the operating characteristics immediately for traffic in the area and it is felt that since Construction Drawings have been prepared by VDOT then the ROW acquistion and construction will be done well within the 5 to 10 year design life of Southern Hills. �? The applicant should identify the scope of improvements that are planned for Town Run Lane and indicate when the improvements will occur, who is responsible for the cost of the improvements, and if those commitments are planned to be incorporated into the proffer statement for this project. The proffer statement and generalized development plan has been changed to reflect improvements to Town Run Lane including overlay of 2" of Bituminous Concrete on the existing prime and seal surface between Stickley Drive and the first project entrance and the addition of guardrails where needed, with work to be performed prior to the issuance of the 50th occupancy permit. Town Run Lane will be overlayed between the project entrances when the second entrance is constructed. 3) The applicant should indicate what agreements exist to obtain a deeded easement from the Stimpson parcel that provides for an adequate right-of-way width to allow for the extension of Stickley Drive to Town Run Lane. We have sent to your office a letter , signed by Mr Harry Stimpson, III, the owner, showing his intent to provide the necessary rights of way and easements for the applicant to construct Stickley Drive extension. 2 January 1, 2001 4) The applicant should advise the Planning Commission if plans exist to provide for traffic signalization at the Stickley Road intersection with Fairfax Pike, and indicate when the improvements will occur, who is responsible for the cost of the improvements, and if those commitments are planned to be incorporated into the proffer statement for this project. See applicants reply in 1 above. The applicant does not voluntarily proffer improvements at this intersection for the reasons stated. 5) The applicant should address the concerns expressed by the Fire and Rescue Service division regarding viable solutions for emergency vehicle access and regarding the proposed monetary proffer to offset impacts to fire and rescue capital facilities costs. The applicant has received an updated reply for comments from Chief Greg Locke of the Stephens City Fire Company, stating that his Department now does not object to the rezoning after review of the Stickley Drive plan proposed by proffer. With regard to proffer amount, the applicant proffered the amount agreed to by the Board of Supervisors with the Top of Virginia Builders Assoc., namely 501 of the recently updated proffer model. In the case of Fire and Rescue, this constituted an amount many times previous proffers made by the applicant. Apparently, the Dept of Emergency Services desires a 100-W proffer Which raises the proffer from $15 to $880 per lot (500$+) 3 January 1, 2001 6) The applicant should indicate how they can mitigate impacts associated with the increased use of the citizens convenience center and the need to expand that facility. The applicant believes that the Solid Waste Management function of the County Public Works Dept. is operated as an Enterprise activity where the fees charged pay for the operation and capital improvements required. With great respect for the administrators who operate this important public service, we believe that this effort will continue to be selfsupported and proffers are not, therefore- , required. 7) The applicant should advise the Planning Commission if there is the potential to provide for active recreational areas within the proposed residential development. This project will be all single family detached housing which does not require active recreational facilities. It is the applicants feeling that the proffer made for Parks and Recreation will provide for the needed facilities. 8) The applicant should indicate how they plan to accommodate the desires of the Ewing family to preserve access to and improve the area of the existing family cemetery. The Ewing family cemetery will be set aside as a separate lot with public road access and deeded, if possible, to the Ewing family with covenants for future maintenance by the Ewing family. 4 January 1, 2001 9) The applicant should advise the Planning Commission how they plan to advise future lot purchasers of on- site and adjoining property issues including the Ewing family cemetery, the Double Church Agricultural and Forestal District, and the lagoon sites owned by the Town of Stephens City and the Frederick County Sanitation Authority. Proffers have been added to notify homeowners by plat and covenants of the nature of adjacent Ag Districts and the wastewater treatment functions and their position around the Southern hills subdivision. Additional setbacks and tree cutting provisions have been added after consultation with neighbors. Also, the GDP has been revised to move the South project entrance North on Town Run Lane In order to satisfy property owner concerns to the South. 5 REZONING REQUEST PROFFER Property Identification Number 85-A-138 Opequon Magisterial District DOROTHY CARBAUGH ESTATE PROPERTY Preliminary Matters Pursuant to Section 15.2-2296 et.

Warren, and City of Winchester To: Donnie and Rachel Hammon 160 Journeyman Lane White Post, VA 22663 From: Doug Dailey, Frederick -Winchester Health Department/ Date: September 15, 2000 Subject: Conditional Use Permit Comments; Tax Map # 87-4-1 The health department has no objection to the new business as long as there are no additional employees other than current residents and there is no additional water use. The existing sewage disposal system serving the property was approved as a repair system on June 6, 1986. This system appears to be approaching the wastewater loading limit. Additional water use may cause the system to malfunction prematurely. If additional toilet facilities are necessary at the building proposed for the business, a new septic tank, pump tank, and force main will be required if health department approval is requested. The new components must be installed a minimum of fifty feet from any well or water supply. An application, fee (currently $75), and construction permit will be required for such construction. The permit or the final construction may not be approved if the system is malfunctioning.
