Gyurisin - Deputy Director 703/662-4532 September 4, 1985 Mr. Henry J. Williams Harkins Associates, Inc. 12301 Old Columbia Pike Silver Spring, Maryland 20904 Dear Mr. Williams: This letter is to confirm the Frederick County Board of Supervisors' action at their meeting of August 28, 1985: Approval of Rezoning Application #004-85 of Harkins Associates, Inc. to rezone 3.5 acres from B-1 (Business Limited) to B-2 (Business General) for one two-story structure for a 60-room motel with ancilliary offices and no restaurant or beverage service. This property is located south of the intersection of Routes 277 and 1012 at the Stephens City Exit of Interstate 81 in the Opequon Magisterial District. , If you have any questions regarding your rezoning, please don't hesitate to call me. p ,ly, .P. Horne r JTPH/rsa cc: Eston 0. Rudolph, Jr., Commissioner of Revenue George B. Whitacre, Circuit Court Clerk 9 C.nurt nunre P.O. Box 601 Winchester, Virginia REZONING REQUEST #004-85 Harkins Associates, Inc. 3.5 acres zoned B-1 (Business Limited) to be rezoned to B-2 (Business General) LOCATION: South of the intersection of Routes 277 and 1012 at the Stephens City Exit of Interstate 81, behind the Kentucky Fried Chicken. MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT: Opequon ADJACENT LAND USE AND ZONING: Commercial and open space land use and B-1 zoning. PROPOSED USE AND IMPROVEMENTS: One two-story structure for a 60-room motel with ancilliary offices. No restaurant or beverage service. REVIEW EVALUATIONS: Virginia Dept. of Highways and Transportation - No objections to rezoning. A commercial entrance permit must be applied for. An approval, however, will hinge on having adequate site distance in both directions. Sanitation Authority - Water and sewer service is available. Lines will have to be extended by the developer to provide service to the parcel to be developed. Stephens City Fire Company - No objection to rezoning. Respectfully request that adequate hydrants be installed for the type of occupancy, if rezoning is approved. Planning and Zoning COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The Frederick County Comprehensive Plan designates this area as an urban development area on the generalized rural urban development area map. USE & ZONING REGULATIONS Conversion of this property from a B-1 to a B-2 zone would not only allow the placement of the proposed motel facility, but a much broader range of retail facilities than are currently allowed under the B-1 regulations. The purpose of the B-1 (Neighborhood Business) Zone is to provide small scale community business services to nearby residential • Page 2 Harkins Rezoning neighborhoods. The purpose of the B-2 Zone is to provide for a broader range of retail commercial services to a much larger market area. TRAFFTC: Ingress and egress to this property would be from Virginia Route 1012 which intersects with Route 277 at the interchange area with 81. That intersection is currently signalized and while the entire intersection area is becoming more congested, the signalization of the intersection should provide for safe access for persons leaving I-81 or Route 277 and entering Route 1012. This motel facility will clearly cater to Interstate 81 traffic and that traffic would be controlled by the signal at this intersection. Current traffic on Route 1012 is minimal due to the lack of development south of this property. As development proceeds on other land zoned for urban uses south of this property on 1012, the traffic on this road will significantly increase. The staff anticipates the major point of congestion, however, to be at the signal and provisions have been made for programming of that signal to respond to changes in the traffic patterns at the intersection. GENERAL DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS AT INTERCHANGE AREA As the enclosed overall development plan for the Ridgefield/Stimpson property indicates, this site is completely surrounded by other portions of that property which are proposed for commercial development. All residential development of the property would be on the opposite side of a ridge and would in no way be effected by retail facilities on this site. Adequate areas would remain on the Stimpson property for the development of small scale neighborhood commercial uses to serve the Ridgefield and Stephens Village residential areas. Those neighborhood retail services would be more appropriately placed along Stickley Drive to provide direct access from the residential areas to those neighborhood facilities. This site is more appropriately viewed, in the staff's opinion, as an interchange property which should cater towards a larger market area and be zoned appropriately. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Zoning comments. Approval, for the reasons listed under the Planning and PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS: Unanimous approval.
