Cottage Occupation
Certified Public Accountant
LOCATION: Fifteen miles from Winchester on North Frederick Pike
(Route 522), east onto Route 694
MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT: Gainesboro
PROPERTY ID NUMBER 06 -A -81A
PROPERTY ZONING & PRESENT USE• Zoned RA (Rural Areas)
Land use - residential
ADJOINING PROPERTY ZONING & PRESENT USE: Zoned RA (Rural Areas),
Land use - residential
PROPOSED USE: Cottage Occupation - Certified Public Accountant
REVIEW EVALUATIONS:
Virginia Department of Transportation: No objections to a
conditional use permit for this property. Existing private
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.
Fire Marshal: A cottage occupation of this nature would create
no unusual or undue impacts on fire and rescue resources.
Inspections De artment: Building shall comply with the Virginia
Uniform Statewide Building Code and Section 303, Use Group B
(Business) of the BOCA National Building Code/1990. Other codes
that apply are title 28 Code of Federal Regulation, Part 36
Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability by Public
Accommodations and in Commercial Facilities. Permit required
shall be change of use on area if visited by the public.
Page 2
Health Department: The Health Department has no objections to
the proposed conditional use permit. Sewage facility is
adequate and functioning properly as of this date (11-23-93).
Planning Department: Applicant wishes to have a sign in her
yard to locate or advertise her business as a Certified Public
Accountant. Having the sign places her in the realm of the
cottage occupation and therefore a CUP is required. The
proposed use will be low volume with no appreciable increase in
the amount of traffic generated. Most of the applicants' work
would be on consignment. Staff does not envision any problem
with this proposal at this time.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR JANUARY 5, 1994 PC MEETING: Approval with
the following conditions:
1. That a change of use permit be acquired in accordance with
the requirements of the Building Inspections Department.
2. That the sign associated with this use be maintained in
accordance with the Frederick County Code and any applicable
state code.

TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Kris C. Tierney, Deputy Planning Director
RE: Request for Conversion of 2.9 Acres of Sherando Park Property to Accommodate
the Relocation of Warrior Road
DATE: December 20, 1993
Warrior Road is a planned Collector Road shown in the Eastern Road Plan of the County's
Comprehensive Plan. The Road runs from Route 277 through the Village at Sherando, north
across Route 642, continues north through Wakeland Manor, and will ultimately connect with
Route 37 or Route 522.
As most members will recall, the original plan for Warrior Road was for it to go through
Fredericktowne Estates. The existing portion of Warrior Road within Fredericktowne is a 50
foot right-of-way with lots (and therefore driveways) fronting on it. Following opposition on
the part of residents of the area to the existing street being connected to the Village at Sherando
to the south, the County has sought to relocate this section of the road onto the adjacent park
land lying to the east.
Because Land and Water Conservation Grant money was used in the develop{r_ent of elements
of Sherando Park, permission from the National Park Service is required in order to utilize any
of the park acreage for purposes other than recreation.
Attached is a draft "report" containing background information on Warrior Road and requesting
that the State Department of Conservation and Recreation grant permission for the proposed
'-f% trovsiX11.
vvL1 t VL sion.
A key component of any conversion is that land of equal value and usefulness be acquired to
substitute for the land which is to be converted. An agreement has been reached with JASBO
Inc. to obtain 5.4 acres from a 95 acre parcel which adjoins Sherando Park to the north. This
would amount to a nearly two -to -one trade, as only 2.9 acres is being requested for the road
relocation.
9 North Loudoun Slrccl P.O. Roy 001
winchcstcr, VA 212601 winchc.�lcr. VA _12604
Another important element of this request is that we are proposing that a bike path would be
built in conjunction with this section of road. This would link up with the 2.5 mile bike path
to be constructed with the ISTEA grant the County recently received.
The staff would ask the Commission's support of the proposal, which would then go to the
Board of Supervisors for their endorsement.

INTRODUCTION
Sherando Park is situated in east -central Frederick County, just to the east of the town of
Stephens City. This area of the county experienced considerable population and housing
growth during the 1980's and continues to grow steadily today. The demand for park
facilities his high as demonstrated by a 1993 attendance figure of 150,000. The park
developed many amenities over the last decade in an effort to keep pace with the
recreational demands of the community. There are a number of additional park projects
scheduled for construction in coming years. The following information provides a history
of the park's development along with a listing of existing and planned facilities and events.

The park contains 330 acres located on either side of State Route 277. The area directly
affected by this proposal is that portion of the park located on the north side of the road.
(See map on next page.) The long range plan for this area of the park is for a golf course.
The proposed boundary change would not interfear with these plans.
9j
COMPREHENSIVE POLICY PLAN
Frederick County has a highly developed Comprehensive Policy Plan which establishes the
basic goals and direction for the County in terms of growth and development. An important
element of this Policy Plan is the Eastern Road Plan (ERP). The ERP was developed over
the course of a number of years and results from the input from a number of area
engineering firms, the County Transportation Committee, County planning staff and officials,
and the general public. The ERP was adopted and became a part of the Comprehensive
Policy Plan in 1991.
The ERP consists of a map of eastern Frederick County on which new or improved road
connections have been indicated. This plan is based on existing zoning and land use and
the resulting traffic that can be anticipated based on these various land uses, in combination
with County policies concerning growth and the availability of sewer and water. The
purpose of the plan is to anticipate needed road improvements as well as needed
connections between existing roads. By foreseeing the need for such transportation
improvements and making them a part of the Comprehensive Plan, the County is able to
make well-informed decisions on development proposals and can require planned
improvements to be constructed at the expense of developers rather than the local taxpayer.
One of the major components of the plan is a collector road running north and south
connecting Route 277 and Route 642 and continuing to the north from Route 642. This
connection between 277 and 642 is needed to provide an alternate north/south
transportation corridor in this area to relieve traffic demand on the already overtaxed Route
647. (See Eastern Road Plan map, page 7) The southern segment of this connection is
located in the vicinity of the western edge of the portion of Sherando park that lies north
of Route 277.
WARRIOR DRIVE
A portion of the north -south connector road discussed above has already been constructed
within The Village at Sherando which is a commercial/residential development located
adjacent to the north side of Route 277. This road segment terminates at the western
border of Sherando Park. The portion of Warrior Drive that will be directly north of Route
642 has been planned and approved as part of a residential development known as
Wakeland Manor. Construction of this segment will be phased in as the development is
completed.
Original plans for this collector road (Warrior Drive) were for it to pass through the
residential subdivision known as Fredericktowne Estates. This development is situated at
the northern edge of The Village at Sherando. Unfortunately, plans for the collector were
not completed in time and the section of Fredericktowne Estates where the road would have
gone was platted and homes were under construction by the time the plans were finalized.
4
The County has therefore been forced to search for an alternative path for this road
segment. The only available land in the area is Sherando Park, thus resulting in this
request.
The existing section of Warrior Drive in The Village at Sherando is a two-lane road on a
60 foot right-of-way. The road will ultimately have a four foot bike lane along either side.
Construction of the bike lanes are being funded in part through an ISTEA grant. (See
Appendix "A"; Notice of Grant Approval) Construction is anticipated to begin in the spring
of 1994. The proposed road segment through Sherando Park would be built to the same
standards including the bike lanes. (See Appendix 'B"; Warrior Drive Relocation Map)
The land lying to the north of Sherando Park is zoned Residential Performance (RP). RP
zoning allows for a wide range of residential development. It is anticipated that at some
point in the future this tract will be developed, at that time the corresponding segments of
Warrior Drive will be built by the developer(s) and will complete the collector road.
PROPOSED BOUNDARY ADJUSTMENT
What Frederick County proposes is to utilize an 80 foot strip along the western edge of
Sherando Park for the needed section of Warrior Drive. This would allow enough room for
a 60 foot right-of-way that would contain the road and accompanying bike lanes as well as
20 additional feet for a buffer strip. The total acreage needed would be 2.9 acres. To
compensate for this, the County would acquire a 150 foot strip along the northern edge of
the same park tract amounting to 5.54 acres. (See Appendix "C; Warrior Drive Insert Map)
The County has negotiated with the owners of the parcel and have reached a verbal
agreement to acquire the needed acreage. (See Appendix "D"; Letter of Agreement)
5
EASTERN ROAD PLAN INSERT
As mentioned above, the tract to the north of the Park (Tax Map # 75-A-117) is zoned RP
and is assessed by the Frederick County Commissioner of the Revenue at $12,000.00 per
acre. The Sherando Park tract affected by the proposal (Tax Map # 86-A-135) is zoned
Rural Areas (RA) and is assessed at $10,000.00 per acre. The results of an appraisal of
both parcels is attached as "Appendix E". The County feels there is little question that the
land offered in substitution for the park acreage is of at least equal usefulness and, as
demonstrated by the assessed value and the attached appraisal, is of even higher monetary
value.
SUMMARY
It is our hope that the information provided in this report adequately demonstrates the need
for the north/south collector road, currently referred to as Warrior Road. More
importantly, it is our hope that we have demonstrated the positive affect that the proposed
boundary adjustment would have on Sherando Park and the attainment of the desired level
of availability of recreational facilities in the Stephens City area. As you can see from the
documents contained in Appendix F, the County,s Parks and Recreation Commission as well
as the County School system are supportive of the proposal. It is the opinion of Frederick
County that, contrary to the image conjured up by the term, "conversion", the use proposed
for the requested 2.9 acres would have no negative impact on the park. In fact the County
believes the proposal would; 1) enhance the value and usefulness of the park by providing
the potential for improved vehicle access, should the park wish to take advantage of its
proximity to the road, 2) provide pedestrian and bicycle access to the park, and; 3) result
in an increase in the gross usable acreage of the park.

Congratulations! Your application for funds in
Virginia's Transportation Enhancement Program has been
approved by the Commonwealth Transportation Board.
The Advisory Committee had a very difficult job making
its recommendations this year as there were many excellent
applications and competition was extremely keen. With just
over $14 million available in federal funds, we received 219
applications requesting $69 million.
A meeting will be scheduled with you in the near future
to discuss the implementation of your project. Please do not
spend any funds or initiate any phase of your project until
after this meeting. Since these are federal funds, a formal
federal authorization must be received before you start, and
all federal guidelines must be followed. We do not want to
jeopardize federal participation because of a procedural
error.
We will be contacting you soon and thank you again for
your interest in Virginia's Transportation Program.

LETTER OF AGREEMENT Fax 703/678-0682
The following constitutes the conditions under which a transfer of roughly 5.54
acres from Tax Map Parcel #75-A-117 owned by JASBO, Inc. to the County of
Frederick, Virginia would take place.
WHEREAS, It is Frederick County's desire to complete a north -south collector road
(segments of which are presently in place and referred to as Warrior Road) between State
Routes 277 and 642, and;
WHEREAS, The only viable location for a segment of this collector road is along the
western edge of the northwestern portion of Sherando Park (Tax Map Parcel #86-A-135),
and;
WHEREAS, Certain facilities within the park were developed through the use of Land and
Water Conservation Grant money, which requires that the use of the land be strictly for
recreational purposes, and that any conversion of use be compensated through the provision
of other land of "reasonably equivalent usefulness and location", and;
WHEREAS, JASBO, Inc. owns a parcel containing approximately 95 acres, zoned
Residential Performance (RP) and referenced as Tax Map Parcel #75-A-117, which adjoins,
to the north, the above mentioned portion of Sherando Park.
THEREFORE, JASBO, Inc. hereby agrees that if and when Frederick County obtains
permission from the Department of Conservation and Recreation and the Department of
the Interior to utilize the needed 2.9 plus or minus acres of park land for the right-of-way
of a segment of the north -south collector road described above, then JASBO, Inc. will
convey a strip of land along the southern boundary of Tax Map Parcel #75-A-117, roughly
1800 feet by 150 feet and containing approximately 5.54 acres, provided that the 5.54 acres
is counted toward the open space requirements of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance
if and when the remainder of Tax Map Parcel #75-A-117 is developed for residential
purposes.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Frederick County Planning Commission
FROM: Robert Watkins, Director
SUBJECT: SJR240/HJR572/SJR188 Highway Funding Legislation
DATE: December 15, 1993
Legislation will be considered in the General Assembly which will substantially change the
formulas by which road construction funding is distributed throughout the state. Proposed
changes to the formulas are as follows:
Category Old Formula
Unpaved Roads Road had to
have 50 ADT
to be eligible
Primary Roads 70% vehicle miles
traveled, 25% lane
miles, 5% need
Secondary Roads 80% population,
20% land area
New Formula Impact
Road has to Will reduce funding
have 100 ADT and require removal
to be eligible of roads from plan
that have been
designated for improve-
ment for years.
96% vehicle miles Funding will increase
traveled, 4% need less rapidly than it
would have
88% population, Funding will increase
12% land area less rapidly than
it would have
The change in the unpaved road eligibility (SJR188) will be particularly dramatic. It will
reduce our funding in this area by over half. A number of unpaved roads that have been
scheduled for years to be paved in our secondary road improvement plan will have to be
removed.
The impacts of the changes in the primary and major secondary improvement funding will
be more subtle. An attached analysis suggests that the major secondary improvement
funding will continue to grow despite the change. However, it appears to staff that the
9 North Loudoun Strcct P.O. 13o'� 001
Winchcstcr, VA 212601 Winchcstcr. VA '_-604
2
funding in both these categories will necessarily grow less rapidly than they would have
without the change.
It is clear that this bill represents an attempt to shits funding from the smaller
municipalities to the larger metropolitan areas. It will have a substantially negative impact
on the smaller but rapidly growing areas like Frederick County. An additional analysis,
attached, projects that the Staunton District currently has one of the lowest ratios of
funding to revenue for highway projects. We get much less than we give. The proposed
changes will undoubtedly make this situation worse.
It is the opinion of the staff that an analysis by VDOT is needed of the impact that the
legislation will have on rates of growth in road improvement funding. The staff would
recommend that Frederick County oppose this bill.

Unpaved Roads in Virginia
■ There are 45,710 miles of secondary roads in Virginia, of which 10,368 are unpaved.
■ There are 6,143 unpaved miles that exceed 50 vehicles per day and are eligible for
paving under the current highway allocation formulae.
■ Staunton has 873 eligible unpaved miles or 14 percent of the statewide total.
■ Under the current allocation formulae, 5.67 percent of all construction funds are set-aside
for the unpaved roads fund. The cost to bring the 6,143 eligible unpaved miles up to
standard would be $1,535,718,000.
■ SJR 188 recommends that the threshold for upgrading unpaved roads be increased to 100
or more vehicles per day; under this formula, 1,940 unpaved miles would be eligible for
paving.
■ Under the SJR 188 recommended formulae, 1.5 percent of all construction funds are set-
aside for the unpaved roads funds. The cost to bring the 1,940 unpaved miles eligible
under the SJR 188 scenario up to standard would be $359,890,000.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Frederick County Planning Commission
FROM: Robert W. Watkins, Planning Director
SUBJECT: Virginia Growth Strategies Act
DATE: December 13, 1993
COUNTY of FREDERICK
Department of Planning and Development
703 / 665-5651
Fax 703 / 678-0682
Last summer we reviewed with you the proposed Virginia Growth Strategies Act, which is
intended to provide a new framework for planning and growth management in Virginia. After
staff recommendations, the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors passed resolutions
which stated the following:
That Frederick County supports legislation that would provide for improved strategic
planning at the statewide level and improved coordination among state agencies.
That Frederick County does not support scrutiny of local planning by state agencies.
That measures are needed to improve regional coordination and to provide better local
tools for growth management.
A new version of the Act has been prepared for introduction into this session of the General
Assembly. The following changes have been made:
Local planning review and recognition procedures have been removed.
The legislation endorsed by the Commission on Population Growth and Development on
September 29, 1993 requires that a Virginia Growth Strategies Plan be prepared and
adopted and that the activities of state agencies be required to conform with this plan.

Planning Commission
Re: Virginia Growth Strategies Act
December 13, 1993
Despite the fact that no new growth management tools for local governments have been
developed by this process as originally proposed, the staff would support the provisions of the
Virginia Growth Strategies Act as currently drafted. Some changes to the Area Development
Act, which would effect the role of PDC's in local planning, have been discussed, but are not
included in the latest draft. These should be reviewed carefully if proposed.
