REVIEW EVALUATIONS:
VirLinia Dept. of Transportation: The documentation within the application to rezone this property
appears to have little measurable impact on Route 656. This route is the VDOT roadway which has
been considered as the access to the property referenced. VDOT is satisfied that the transportation
proffers offered in the Abram's Chase Subdivision rezoning application dated March 1, 2006 addresses
transportation concerns associated with this request. Before development, this office will require a
complete set of construction plans detailing entrance designs, drainage features, and traffic flow data
from the I.T.E. Trip General Manual, Sixth Edition for review. VDOT reseives the right to connnent on
all right-of-way needs, including right-of-way dedications, traffic signalization, and off -site roadway
improvements and drainage. Any work performed on the State's right-of-way must be covered under a
land use permit. This permit is issued by this office and requires an inspection fee and surety bond
coverage.
Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended.
Greenwood Volunteer Fire Company: Agreed to.
Public Works Department: Refer to Wetlands, Page 3: A detailed wetlands delineation study will be
required with the master development plan submittal. Refer to Site Drainage, Page 7: During the
subdivision design phase, it will be necessary to route the 100-year storms through the existing drainage
swales to determine the impact on the proposed development. Any stormwater ponds shall be
constructed above the maximum 100-year storm level. Refer to Solid Waste Disposal, Page 7: The
narrative references the close proximity to the Greenwood Citizens' Convenience Center. This site has
been scheduled to be closed within the next two years. Therefore, we recommend that curbside trash
pickup be provided by the developer or Home Owners' Association. This requirement should be
included in the analysis and proffer statement.
Frederick -Winchester Service Authority: There is adequate water and sewer capacity to serve this
rezoning request.
Sanitation Authority: No comments.
Department of Parks & Recreation: As of this review, a minimum of three recreational units are
required for this development. However, if a waiver is approved, an appropriate value for recreational
amenities must be determined. The proposed asphalt walkway to adjacent property should meet
Frederick County Standards. Plan appears to offer the appropriate amount of open space. The proposed
monetary proffer for Parks and Recreation appears to address the impact Abram's Chase will have on
this department's capital facility needs.
Frederick County Public Schools: Based on the information provided, it is anticipated that the
proposed 14 single family homes will yield two high school students, two middle school students and
five elementary school students for a total of nine new students upon build -out. Significant residential
growth in Frederick County has resulted in the schools serving this area having student enrollments
Rezoning # 11-06 — Abram's Chase
September 1, 2006
Page 3
nearing or exceeding the practical capacity for a school. Even with only nine new students upon build -
out, the cumulative impact of this project and others, coupled with the number of approved,
undeveloped residential lots in the area, will necessitate the future construction of new school facilities
to accommodate increased student enrollments.
Winchester Regional Airport: While the proposed development lies within the airport[s Part 77
surfaces and airspace, it appears that the proposed site plan should not impact operations at the
Winchester Regional Airport. Residents should be forewarned that due to the proximity of the site to
the Winchester Airport, they may experience noise from over flight of aircraft arriving to and departing
from the airport from the northeast.
Frederick County Attorney: It is my opinion that the Proffer Statement is generally in a form to meet
the requirements of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance and the Code of Virginia, subject to the
following comments: 1. Proffer A provides that the property will develop in substantial conformity
with the attached Generalized Development Plan (GDP). The GDP was not attached to the copy of the
Proffer Statement provided to me. Therefore, this review is provided without a review of the GDP. 2.
Proffer B limits the dwelling units to "14 single family detached residential dwelling units on small
lots". It is assumed that this is a reference to the "single family small lot" type of development
identified in Section 165-65F of the Zoning Ordinance. 3. Proffer C proposes to provide tot lot
equipment, park benches, and an asphalt pedestrian walkway as community recreational facilities in lieu
of a conununity center, of the conununity center is waived by the Frederick County Board of
Supervisors. However, my review of Section 165-64(A)(1) indicates that the Board of Supervisors can
waive the commmunity center requirement of Section 165-64(A) in proffered age -restricted single family
small lot subdivisions that contain less than 50 lots. However, there is nothing in the proffer provided
to me to indicate that this development is to be an age -restricted development. Accordingly, I question
whether the waiver provision applies, so as to permit the elimination of the community center for this
small lot housing development. 4. Proffers D(1) and D(2) provide for the construction of a right turn
and taper lane and for the dedication of right-of-way. However, neither proffer establishes a timing
requirement for the construction and dedication. A timing requirement satisfactory to the County
should be included in each proffer. 5. In Proffer E the first clause is redundant and should be deleted.
The proffer should commence as the other proffers have commenced with the language "the Applicant
will pay...". It should be noted that I have not reviewed the substance of the proffers as to whether the
proffers are suitable and appropriate for the rezoning of this specific property, or whether other proffers
would be appropriate, as it is my understanding that that review will be done by the staff and the
Planning Conunission.
Historic Resources Advisory Board: Upon review of the proposed rezoning, it appears that the
proposal does not significantly impact historic resources and it is not necessary to schedule a formal
review of the rezoning application by the HRAB. According to the Rural Landmarks Survey, there are
no significant historic structures located on the properties nor are there any possible historic districts in
the vicinity. It was also noted that the National Park Service Study of Civil War Sites in the
Shenandoah Valley does not identify any core battlefields that this proposed rezoning would directly
impact.

Planning & Zoning:
1) Site History
The original Frederick County Zoning Map (U.S.G.S. Stephenson Quadrangle) identifies the
parcel as being zoned A-2 Agricultural. The County's A-1 and A-2 agricultural zoning districts
were combined to form the RA (Rural Areas) District upon adoption of an amendment to the
Frederick County Zoning Ordinance on May 10, 1989. The corresponding revision of the zoning
map resulted in the re -mapping of the subject property and all other A-1 and A-2 zoned land to
the RA (Rural Areas) District. Parcels 65-A-27A and 65-A-28A maintain this RA zoning
classification.
2) Comprehensive Policy Plan
The Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan is an official public document that serves as
the community's guide for making decisions regarding development, preservation, public
facilities and other key components of cominunity life. The primary goal of this plan is to
protect and improve the living enviromnent within Frederick County. It is in essence a
composition of policies used to plan for the future physical development of Frederick County.
[Comprehensive Policy Plan, p. I-]]
T.mifl TTco
The parcels comprising this rezoning application are located within the County's Urban
Development Area (UDA) and Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). The Urban
Development Area defines the general area in which more intensive forms of residential
development will occur. In addition, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan
Map identifies this general area with future residential land uses.
Transporlation
The Frederick County Eastern Road Plan provides guidance regarding future arterial and
collector road connections in the eastern portion of the County by identifying needed
connections and locations. Plans for new development should provide for the right-of-ways
necessary to implement planned road improvements and new roads shown on the road plan
should be constructed by the developer when warranted by the scale, intensity, or impacts of the
development. Existing roads should be improved as necessary by adjacent development to
implement the intentions of the plan (Comprehensive Plan 7-6).
Senseny Road is identified as an improved major collector road and should be addressed
accordingly. In addition, Senseny Road is recognized in the Frederick County Bicycle Plan with
a short terin designation for bicycle acconunodations. Access to the site would be via a new
street that would be in the form of a cul-de-sac as indicated on the Generalized Development
Plan.

3) Site Suitability/Environment
The site does not contain any environmental features that would either constrain or preclude site
development. There are no identified areas of steep slopes, floodplains, wetlands or woodlands.
According to the Soil Survey of Frederick County, the site contains the following soil types;
Clearbrook Channerry Silt Loams and Weikert-Berks Channery Silt Loams.
4) Potential Impacts
A. Transportation
Traffic Impact Analysis.
The applicant's transportation analysis is minimal due to the limited scope of the proffered
development plan. Based upon the ITE Trip Generation Manual, the fourteen lot single family v��•
detached residential project will generate approximately 134 vehicle trips per day. Senseny
Road in this area has a variable right-of-way. The applicant has proffered to dedicate necessary
right-of-way as well as build a right turn and taper lane within the Senseny Road right-of-way. P�
Transportation Program.
The applicant will be constructing a new street to provide access to the fourteen lot subdivision
which will traverse through the center of the subject site. The location of the access point onto
Senseny Road is approximately two hundred feet from the closest road, Parkwood Drive. Also
provided by the applicant in er statement is a commitment to provide a monetary
contribution in the amount o ,000.0 �r residential lot to address transportation en r l
1 sg,100 g�lt�
needs in the vicinity of this project. `'�
`Ik) q�1C a e•,�'t nrq J•� �,,, �� oee /i+ tf a
Recent projects along Senseny Road have proposed the construction of additional lanes along
Senseny Road as well as the implementation of a 10 foot wide hiker/biker trail along the north
side of Senseny Road. This approach should be a consistent consideration as projects are
proposed along the Senseny Road corridor. This project has reserved the right-of-way for
Senseny Road (improvements to be completed by others) and has not proposed the inclusion of
a 10' path as requested.

This project also does not provide an tnterparcel connection to the adjacent property to the west
which could facilitate additional entrances onto Senseny Road should those parcel choose to
. � A
redevelop in the future. The inclusion of an interparcel connection is encouraged.

Presently sewer service is available via an 8" main that th is located along the northern portion
of the subject site. This sewer line will direct effluent m the Abram's Chase Subdivision to
the new Frederick County Sanitation Authority regional pump that will convey effluent to the
Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant. The proposed 14 lot development would add
approximately 3,100 gallons per day to the public sewer conveyance system, increasing the
demand at the Opequon Plant by 0.15%.

Water supply will be provided by way of an 8" water line along the north side of Senseny Road
that adjoins the subject site. Potable water is provided to this area of Senseny Road through a
series of water transmission lines whose source is the Stephens City quarry system. Water
demand of this project is estimated to be 3,850 gallons per day.
C. Community Facilities
The Frederick County Development Impact Model is a tool that is used to identify the capital
costs associated with various types of development proposals presented to the County. The
projected costs to Fire and Rescue, Public Schools, Parks and Recreation, Library, Sheriffs
Office and for the Administration Building have been calculated and provided to the applicant
for their consideration. The impacts associated with entirely residential projects are fixed at
$23,290.00 for single family detached residential dwellings. This application addresses
community facility impacts and needs by proffering a payment in the amount of $23,290.00 per
residential unit to mitigate the impact to the identified community facilities.
For your information, the following is the breakdown of the projected impacts per dwelling
unit for each capital facility taken from the Development Impact Model.

Development Area defines the general area in which more intensive forms of residential
development will occur. In addition, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan
Map identifies this general area with fixture residential land uses.
Transportation
The Frederick County Eastern Road Plan provides guidance regarding fixture arterial and
collector road connections in the eastern portion of the County by identifying needed
connections and locations. Plans for new development should provide for the right-of-ways
necessary to implement planned road improvements and new roads shown on the road plan
should be constructed by the developer when warranted by the scale, intensity, or impacts of the
development. Existing roads should be improved as necessary by adjacent development to
implement the intentions of the plan (Comprehensive Plan 7-6).
Senseny Road is identified as an improved major collector road and should be addressed
accordingly. In addition, Senseny Road is recognized in the Frederick County Bicycle Plan with
a short term designation for bicycle accommodations. Access to the site would be via a new
public street that would be stubbed out at the western property line as indicated on the
Generalized Development Plan. A 10' asphalt bicycle/pedestrian is also being constructed
along the frontage of the property.

3) Site Suitability/Environment
The site does not contain any enviromnental features that would either constrain or preclude site
development. There are no identified areas of steep slopes, floodplains, wetlands or woodlands.
According to the Soil Survey of Frederick County, the site contains the following soil types;
Clearbrook Channerry Silt Loams and Weikert-Becks Channery Silt Loams.
4) Potential Impacts
A. Transportation
Traffic Impact Anal
The applicant's transportation analysis is minimal due to the limited scope of the proffered
development plan. Based upon the ITE Trip Generation Manual, the fourteen lot single family
detached residential project will generate approximately 134 vehicle trips per day.
The applicant is proffering to construct an internal public street with a temporary turnaround
that will be designed to provide for inter -parcel coruiectivity to Tax Map Parcel 65-A-25B to the
west. The applicant's proffer statement includes a commitment making the required frontage
improvements to Route 657, Senseny Road, including the necessary right-of-way dedication to
provide for 45 feet from the existing Senseny Road centerline. Commitments for the frontage
improvements have been provided in the proffers include lane widening of Senseny Road to
achieve the full section of Senseny Road across the frontage of this property and bicycle and
pedestrian accommodations. This site will also offer access to the adjacent parcel (65-A-26)
should it choose to utilize the new public street within the Abrams Chase Subdivision.
Staff Note: It is noted that recent single family rezonings in this area have proffered a
transportation contribution per dwelling unit (Senseny Road Rentals, Senseny Village) to
help with road improvements in addition to a proffer to construct the Senseny Road
expansions on their property (Orrick ($2,854), Senseny Road Rentals($5,000)). The
previously reviewed application contained a transportation proffer of $1,000 per unit for
improvements to Senseny Road. This rezoning has been revised to provide the
improvements to Senseny Road but has removed the $1,000 transportation contribution
from the proffers.
Consideration should be made for the location of the road shown on the GDP. This
rezoning will establish the location of the road for future developments.
B. Sewer and Water
Presently sewer service is available via an eight inch main that is located along the northern
portion of the subject site. This sewer line will direct effluent from the Abram's Chase
Subdivision to the new Frederick County Sanitation Authority regional pump that will convey
effluent to the Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant. The proposed 14 lot development would
Rezoning 91 1-06 — Abram's Chase
December 27, 2006
Page 6
add approximately 3,100 gallons per day to the public sewer conveyance system, increasing the
demand at the Opequon Plant by 0.15%.
Water supply will be provided by way of an eight inch water line along the north side of
Senseny Road that adjoins the subject site. Potable water is provided to this area of Senseny
Road through a series of water transmission lines whose source is the Stephens City quarry
system. Water demand of this project is estimated to be 3,850 gallons per day.
C. Community Facilities
The Frederick County Development Impact Model is a tool that is used to identify the capital
costs associated with various types of development proposals presented to the County. The
projected costs to Fire and Rescue, Public Schools, Parks and Recreation, Library, Sheriff's
Office and for the Administration Building have been calculated and provided to the applicant
for their consideration. The impacts associated with entirely residential projects are fixed at
$23,290.00 for single family detached residential dwellings. This application addresses
community facility impacts and needs by proffering a payment in the amount of $23,290.00 per
residential unit to mitigate the impact to the identified community facilities.
For your information, the following is the breakdown of the projected impacts per dwelling
unit for each capital facility taken from the Development Impact Model.

5) Proffer Statement — Dated March 1, 2006 (Revised December 21, 2006)
A) Generalized Development Plan
The applicant has proffered to develop the property in substantial conformance with the
GDP provided in the rezoning application. The GDP shall identify the general location
of the additional travel lane and turn lane on Senseny Road, the 10' bicycle/pedestrian
facility, the internal road system with inter -parcel connectivity, the general location of
the residential lots and the open space/buffer areas.
Rezoning #11-06 — Abram's Chase
December 27, 2006
Page 7
B)
Residential Land Use
The applicant proffers to develop a maximum of 13 single family detached residential
units on small lots.
Staff Note: With the single family small lot designation, this project could develop
lots as small as 3,750 square feet.
C) Transportation Enhancements
1. The applicant will construct an internal pubic street with a temporary turnaround
that will be designed to provide for Interparcel connectivity to Tax Map Parcel 65-
A-2513.
2. The applicant will construct a new westbound travel lane on Senseny Road that is
12' in width and is located along the property frontage within the public right-of-
way. The new westbound travel lane shall be designed to connect Parkwood Drive
tot eh entrance serving the Property. This improvement shall be bonded and
constructed concurrently with the internal public street serving the property.
3. The applicant will construct a right -turn and taper lane within the public right-of-
way to the entrance serving the property. This improvement shall be bonded and
constructed concurrently with the internal public street serving the property.
4. The applicant will dedicate right-of-way sufficient to provide for 45 feet from the
existing Senseny Road centerline of record to allow for future road improvements by
others.
The applicant will construct a 10 foot asphalt bicycle/pedestrian facility along the
entire frontage of the property.
The applicant will provide for a curb cut along the Interparcel public street serving
the property to allow for ingress/egress for Tax Map Parcel 65-A-26A. The
applicant shall establish an ingress/egress easement for the benefit of 65-A-26A that
shall be incorporated into the final plat and deed for the Abrams Chase Subdivision.
Additionally, an easement shall be provided at this general location for the benefit
of Tax Map Parcel 65-A-26A to allow for public water and sewer connections to the
Abrams Chase public water and sewer lines at the expense of others.
D) Monetary Contribution
A monetary contribution in the amount of $23,290.00 to Frederick County, to be
provided at the time each residential lot is platted, is proffered in an effort to
mitigate the impacts associated with this development on community facilities.
PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY AND ACTION OF THE 09/20/06 MEETING:
Members of the Commission asked the applicant if he had considered an inter -parcel connector at the
Rezoning # 1 1-06 — Abram's Chase
December 27, 2006
Page 8
cul-de-sac to the east or the possibility of acquiring the vacant lot on Parkwood Circle for an inter -
parcel cormector. The applicant replied that not only was there a drainage area through the location to
the east, but it would compromise the area they had planned for their recreational amenities; he said the
other open area on the site was designated for stormwater detention. The applicant said he had not
pursued the possibility of purchasing the vacant lot on Parkwood Circle.
Considering how much of the property was within a floodplain, a member of the Commission raised the
possibility that housing sites could be lost or the road location may have to be moved. The applicant
responded that the results of a site -distance study they conducted eliminated any leeway in the location
of the road. The applicant assured the Commission that a wetlands study would be conducted at the
MDP stage, as requested by the County's engineer.
One citizen spoke in opposition to the rezoning; she did not believe the proposed development
supported the County's vision for good planning. She did not think this site, nor the other surrounding
vacant parcels, should be a continuation of the less -than -desirable type of development this area has
been experiencing.
The Planning Staff pointed out that the inter -parcel connection is required by the zoning ordinance and
was a non -debatable issue, Lidless waived by the Board of Supervisors. Staff noted that the ordinance
also requires a waiver of the community center to be done at the MDP or subdivision stage. In addition,
Staff noted the inappropriateness of the applicant adjusting the cash proffer contribution at this point in
the process. Regarding the entrance separation along Senseny Road, Staff commented that the 200 feet
proposed by the applicant did not meet the desired separation of 500 feet, which is recommended in
VDOT's subdivision design manual.
Commission members said they were having difficulty finding any redeeming values in the proposal
from a planning standpoint. They were concerned this project may set a precedent for similar
developments in this area. They were concerned about the possibility of having six cul-de-sacs within a
1,200-foot distance, each with 134 trips per day, along Senseny Road, which already had traffic
problems. Although there were questions whether approving this rezoning represented good planning, a
concern was raised about the fixture of this particular area, which seemed to be a conglomeration of
small parcels. The question of how the parcels in this area could be integrated to create good planning
was raised. The possibility of a solution through the UDA Study was suggested. Members of the
Commission wanted to give the applicant more time to address some of the issues in order to make the
project work. By a majority vote, the Commission tabled the rezoning for 90 days.
YES (TO TABLE): Unger, Watt, Manuel, Morris, Oates, Light, Wilmot, Kriz, Triplett, Kerr, Mohn
NO: Thomas
(Note: Commissioner Ours was absent from the meeting.)
STAFF UPDATE FOR THE 12/20/2006 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING:
The applicant provided staff with a revised proffer statement and GDP which have addressed the issues
raised at the September 20, 2006 Planning Commission. The issues from the meeting and the
Rezoning #11-06 — Abram's Chase
December 27, 2006
Page 9
applicant's solutions are as follows:
The previously reviewed application only provided right-of-way for fixture improvements to
Senseny Road; it did not provide any improvements or the bicycle/pedestrian lane. The revised
application provides the right-of-way, the improvements to Senseny Road (new westbound
travel lane and right turn/taper lane) as well as the ten foot asphalt bicycle/pedestrian facility
along the entire frontage of the property.
2. The internal public road within previously shown has a cul-de-sac and did not provide inter -
parcel connectivity to the adjacent property. The revised proffers and GDP now show the
internal public street stubbing out at the western property line. The applicant has also provided
an area for a smaller adjacent parcel that fronts on Senseny Road to connect into the new public
street within the Abrams Chase Subdivision if they choose.
3. The previously reviewed application contained a request for a waiver of the community center
requirement and the proffers had specific recreational unit figures and amenities that would be
applicable if the community center was waived. The waiver cannot be sought at the rezoning
stage and needs to come at the MPD or Subdivision stage. The waiver and the recreational
amenity proffer have been removed from the application. The revised GDP currently does not
provide a location for the required recreational area which is required to be shown.
PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY AND ACTION OF THE 12/20/06 MEETING:
One adjoining property owner spoke with concerns that the access turn might damage a sewer line for
the existing mobile home. The applicant stated the access turn on Senseny Road will be completely
within the existing right-of-way, plus there is additional right-of-way dedication on the applicant's
property.
Planning staff pointed out that the applicant had addressed the issues raised at the September 20, 2006
Planning Commission meeting and had addressed staff's concerns as well; it was noted that
consideration should be made for the location of the Interparcel connection to the adjacent property to
the west as the road location shown on the GDP will establish the road location for future
developments.
No issues of concern were raised and the Commission recommended approval of the rezoning with the
proffers offered by the following majority vote:
YES (to approve): Unger, Manuel, Morris, Oates, Ours, Kriz, Triplett, Kerr, Mohn, Wilmot
NO: Light
(Note: Commissioners Thomas and Watt were absent from the meeting.)

STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR O1/10/07 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING:
The land use proposed in this application is generally consistent with the Comprehensive Policy Plan, as
described in the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan. The applicant has addressed the
issues that were discussed by the Planning Commission and has addressed staff s concerns.
Consideration should be made for the location of the road that is shown on the GDP as this rezoning
will establish the location of the road for future developments.
Following the required public hearing, a decision regarding this rezoning application by the
Board of Supervisors would be appropriate. The applicant should be prepared to adequately
address all concerns raised by the Board of Supervisors.

October 13, 2006

REVIEW EVALUATIONS:
Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The documentation within the application to rezone this property
appears to have little measurable impact on Route 656. This route is the VDOT roadway which has been
considered as the access to the property referenced. VDOT is satisfied that the transportation proffers
offered in the Abram's Chase Subdivision rezoning application dated March 1, 2006 addresses
transportation concerns associated with this request. Before development, this office will require a
complete set of construction plans detailing entrance designs, drainage features, and traffic flow data
from the I.T.E. Trip General Manual, Sixth Edition for review. VDOT reserves the right to comment on
all right-of-way needs, including right-of-way dedications, traffic signalization, and off -site roadway
improvements and drainage. Any work performed on the State's right-of-way must be covered under a
land use permit. This permit is issued by this office and requires an inspection fee and surety bond
coverage.
Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended.
Greenwood Volunteer Fire Company: Agreed to.
Public Works Department: Refer to Wetlands, Page 3: A detailed wetlands delineation study will be
required with the master development plan submittal. Refer to Site Drainage, Page 7: During the
subdivision design phase, it will be necessary to route the 100-year storms through the existing drainage
swales to determine the impact on the proposed development. Any stormwater ponds shall be
constructed above the maximum 100-year storm level. Refer to Solid Waste Disposal, Page 7: The
narrative references the close proximity to the Greenwood Citizens' Convenience Center. This site has
been scheduled to be closed within the next two years. Therefore, we recommend that curbside trash
pickup be provided by the developer or Home Owners' Association. This requirement should be
included in the analysis and proffer statement.
Frederick -Winchester Service Authority: There is adequate water and sewer capacity to serve this
rezoning request.
Sanitation Authority: No comments.
Department of Parks & Recreation: As of this review, a minimum of three recreational units are
required for this development. However, if a waiver is approved, an appropriate value for recreational
amenities must be determined. The proposed asphalt walkway to adjacent property should meet
Frederick County Standards. Plan appears to offer the appropriate amount of open space. The proposed
monetary proffer for Parks and Recreation appears to address the impact Abram's Chase will have on
this department's capital facility needs.
Frederick County Public Schools: Based on the information provided, it is anticipated that the
proposed 14 single family homes will yield two high school students, two middle school students and
five elementary school students for a total of nine new students upon build -out. Significant residential
growth in Frederick County has resulted in the schools serving this area having student enrollments
nearing or exceeding the practical capacity for a school. Even with only nine new students upon build-
Rezoning # 1 1-06 — Abram's Chase
October 13, 2006
Page 3
out, the cumulative impact of this project and others, coupled with the number of approved, undeveloped
residential lots in the area, will necessitate the future construction of new school facilities to
accommodate increased student enrollments.
Winchester Regional Airport: While the proposed development lies within the airport[s Part 77
surfaces and airspace, it appears that the proposed site plan should not impact operations at the
Winchester Regional Airport. Residents should be forewarned that due to the proximity of the site to the
Winchester Airport, they may experience noise from over flight of aircraft arriving to and departing from
the airport from the northeast.
Frederick County Attorney: it is my opinion that the Proffer Statement is generally in a form to meet
the requirements of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance and the Code of Virginia, subject to the
following comments: 1. Proffer A provides that the property will develop in substantial conformity with
the attached Generalized Development Plan (GDP). The GDP was not attached to the copy of the Proffer
Statement provided to me. Therefore, this review is provided without a review of the GDP. 2. Proffer B
limits the dwelling units to "14 single family detached residential dwelling units on small lots". It is
assumed that this is a reference to the "single family small lot" type of development identified in Section
165-65F of the Zoning Ordinance. 3. Proffer C proposes to provide tot lot equipment, park benches, and
an asphalt pedestrian walkway as community recreational facilities in lieu of a community center, of the
community center is waived by the Frederick County Board of Supervisors. However, my review of
Section 165-64(A)(1) indicates that the Board of Supervisors can waive the community center
requirement of Section 165-64(A) in proffered age -restricted single family small lot subdivisions that
contain less than 50 lots. However, there is nothing in the proffer provided to me to indicate that this
development is to be an age -restricted development. Accordingly, I question whether the waiver
provision applies, so as to permit the elimination of the community center for this small lot housing
development. 4. Proffers D(1) and D(2) provide for the construction of a right turn and taper lane and for
the dedication of right-of-way. However, neither proffer establishes a timing requirement for the
construction and dedication. A timing requirement satisfactory to the County should be included in each
proffer. 5. In Proffer E the first clause is redundant and should be deleted. The proffer should
commence as the other proffers have commenced with the language "the Applicant will pay...". It
should be noted that I have not reviewed the substance of the proffers as to whether the proffers are
suitable and appropriate for the rezoning of this specific property, or whether other proffers would be
appropriate, as it is my understanding that that review will be done by the staff and the Planning
Commission.
Historic Resources Advisory Board: Upon review of the proposed rezoning, it appears that the
proposal does not significantly impact historic resources and it is not necessary to schedule a formal
review of the rezoning application by the HRAB. According to the Rural Landmarks Survey, there are
no significant historic structures located on the properties nor are there any possible historic districts in
the vicinity. It was also noted that the National Park Service Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah
Valley does not identify any core battlefields that this proposed rezoning would directly impact.

Planninlz & Zoninjz:
1) Site History
The original Frederick County Zoning Map (U.S.G.S. Stephenson Quadrangle) identifies the
parcel as being zoned A-2 Agricultural. The County's A-1 and A-2 agricultural zoning districts
were combined to form the RA (Rural Areas) District upon adoption of an amendment to the
Frederick County Zoning Ordinance on May 10, 1989. The corresponding revision of the zoning
map resulted in the re -mapping of the subject property and all other A-1 and A-2 zoned land to
the RA (Rural Areas) District. Parcels 65-A-27A and 65-A-28A maintain this RA zoning
classification.
2) Comprehensive Policy Plan
The Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan is an official public document that serves as
the community's guide for making decisions regarding development, preservation, public
facilities and other key components of community life. The primary goal of this plan is to protect
and improve the living environment within Frederick County. It is in essence a composition of
policies used to plan for the fixture physical development of Frederick County. [Comprehensive
Policy Plan, p. 1-1]
Land Use
The parcels comprising this rezoning application are located within the County's Urban
Development Area (UDA) and Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). The Urban Development
Area defines the general area in which more intensive forms of residential development will
occur. In addition, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan Map identifies this
general area with future residential land uses.
T7*ansporlal ion
The Frederick County Eastern Road Plan provides guidance regarding fixture arterial and
collector road connections in the eastern portion of the County by identifying needed corulections
and locations. Plans for new development should provide for the right-of-ways necessary to
implement planned road improvements and new roads shown on the road plan should be
constructed by the developer when warranted by the scale, intensity, or impacts of the
development. Existing roads should be improved as necessary by adjacent development to
implement the intentions of the plan (Comprehensive Plan 7-6).
Senseny Road is identified as an improved major collector road and should be addressed
accordingly. In addition, Senseny Road is recognized in the Frederick County Bicycle Plan with a
short term designation for bicycle accommodations. Access to the site would be via a new street
that would be in the form of a cul-de-sac as indicated on the Generalized Development Plan.

3) Site Suitability/Environment
The site does not contain any environmental features that would either constrain or preclude site
development. There are no identified areas of steep slopes, floodplains, wetlands or woodlands.
According to the Soil Survey of Frederick County, the site contains the following soil types;
Clearbrook Channerry Silt Loams and Weikert-Becks Chamlery Silt Loams.
4) Potential Impacts
A. Transportation
Traffic Impact Analysis.
The applicant's transportation analysis is minimal due to the limited scope of the proffered
development plan. Based upon the ITE Trip Generation Manual, the fourteen lot single family
detached residential project will generate approximately 134 vehicle trips per day. Senseny Road
in this area has a variable right-of-way. The applicant has proffered to dedicate necessary right-
of-way as well as build a right turn and taper lane within the Senseny Road right-of-way.
Staff Note: The applicant has proffered to dedicate right-of-way sufficient to provide for 45
feet from the existing Senseny Road centerline. This project should be implementing the
Senseny Road expansion plans (proposed four lanes), including construction of the additional
lane and curb and gutter along the frontage of their site. The inclusion of the right turn taper
lane should be in addition and outside of the road expansion area. This rezoning has not
addressed this improvement.
Transportation Program.
The applicant will be constructing a new street to provide access to the fourteen lot subdivision
which will traverse through the center of the subject site. The location of the access point onto
Senseny Road is approximately two hundred feet from the closest road, Parkwood Drive. Also
provided by the applicant in the proffer statement is a commitment to provide a monetary
contribution in the amount of $1,000.00 per residential lot to address transportation general needs
in the vicinity of this project.
Staff Note: It is noted that recent single family rezonings in this area have provided a
transportation proffer of $5, 000 per dwelling unit (Senseny Road Rentals, Senseny Village) to
help with road improvements as well as a proffer to construct the Senseny Road expansions on
their property (Orrick, Senseny Road Rentals). This rezoning proposal has not addressed the
transportation impact similar to other recent rezonings.
Recent projects along Senseny Road have proposed the construction of additional lanes along
Senseny Road as well as the implementation of a ten foot wide hiker/biker trail along the north
side of Senseny Road. This approach should be a consistent consideration as projects are
proposed along the Senseny Road corridor. While this project has reserved the right-of-way for
Senseny Road, it has not proffered to construct the road improvements (improvements to be
completed by others) and has not proposed the inclusion of a ten foot path as requested.
Staff Note: This project also does not provide an interparcel connection to the adjacent
E

Page 6
property to the west which could facilitate additional entrances onto Senseny Road should
those parcels choose to redevelop in the future. The cul-de-sac associated with this project
should stub out to the western lot or a connection from this road should be provided.
B. Sewer and Water
Presently sewer service is available via an eight inch main that is located along the northern
portion of the subject site. This sewer line will direct effluent from the Abram's Chase
Subdivision to the new Frederick County Sanitation Authority regional pump that will convey
effluent to the Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant. The proposed 14 lot development would
add approximately 3,100 gallons per day to the public sewer conveyance system, increasing the
demand at the Opequon Plant by 0.15%.
Water supply will be provided by way of an eight inch water line along the north side of Senseny
Road that adjoins the subject site. Potable water is provided to this area of Senseny Road
through a series of water transmission lines whose source is the Stephens City quarry system.
Water demand of this project is estimated to be 3,850 gallons per day.
C. Community Facilities
The Frederick County Development Impact Model is a tool that is used to identify the capital
costs associated with various types of development proposals presented to the County. The
projected costs to Fire and Rescue, Public Schools, Parks and Recreation, Library, Sheriff's
Office and for the Administration Building have been calculated and provided to the applicant for
their consideration. The impacts associated with entirely residential projects are fixed at
$23,290.00 for single family detached residential dwellings. This application addresses
community facility impacts and needs by proffering a payment in the amount of $23,290.00 per
residential unit to mitigate the impact to the identified community facilities.
For your information, the following is the breakdown of the projected impacts per dwelling
unit for each capital facility taken from the Development Impact Model.

5) Proffer Statement — Dated March 1, 2006 and Revised August 21, 2006
A) Generalized Development Plan
The applicant has proffered to develop the property in substantial conformance with the
GDP provided in the rezoning application.
B) Residential Land Use
The applicant proffers to develop a maximum of 14 single family detached residential
units on small lots.
Staff Note: [Vith the single family small lot designation, this project could develop lots
as small as 3, ?SO square feet.
C) Recreational Amenities
The applicant proffers to develop a community recreational area that will be located as
shown on the GDP. This area will contain tot lot equipment valued at a minimum of
$35,000, park benches, and an asphalt pedestrian walkway. The recreational amenities
provided with this proffer are in -lieu of a community center building if waived by the
Board of Supervisors.
Staff Note: As stated in the last sentence of the proffer, in order to implement this
proffer, the applicant would need to apply for and receive a waiver of the community
center requirement for single fancily small lot developments per §165-64A(1) of the
Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. This waiver would need to be sought during
Master Development stage.
Staff Note: The $35,000 amount included in the proffer is the prorated amount for
the community center should the Board of Supervisors waive the recreational
community center and allow the applicant to prorate the requirement of three
recreational units for each 30 dwellings. If the waiver is not granted by the Board,
the applicant rvotuld be regtuired to provide a contnurnity center. The inclusion of this
proffer is not appropriate since it is limiting the dollar amount of the recreational unit
(if the project is not built immediately the dollar amount per recreational unit is
limited, even if the recreational unit amount increases per county requirements). It
seems inappropriate to discuss recreational values at this point since the community
center is not permitted for consideration until the MDP phase.
D) Transportation Enhancements
1. The applicant will construct a right -turn and taper lane within the public right-of-way
that connects Parkwood Drive to the cul-de-sac serving the property. This
improvement shall be bonded and constructed concurrently with the internal cul-de-
sac serving the property.
2. The applicant will dedicate right-of-way sufficient to provide for 45 feet from the
Rezoning 81 1-06 — Abram's Chase

existing Senseny Road centerline of record to allow for fixture road improvements by
others.
The applicant proffers to provide $1,000 for each residential lot that will be paid to
Frederick County at the time of building permit issuance. This monetary contribution
is available to Frederick County to be used towards future improvements to the
Senseny Road corridor.
Staff Note: It is noted that recent single family rezonings in this as•ea have provided a
transportation proffer of $5,000 per dwelling unit (Senseny Road Rentals, Senseny Village) to
help with road improvements as well as a proffer to construct the Senseny Road expansions on
their property (Quick, Senseny Road Rentals).
Monetary Contribution
A monetary contribution in the amount of $23,290.00 to Frederick County, to be provided
at the time each residential lot is platted, is proffered in an effort to mitigate the impacts
associated with this development on community facilities.
The applicant has requested that the Board of Supervisors provide this development with a
waiver of the community center requirement for single family small lot developments in
accordance with §165-64A(1) of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. This section of the
ordinance allows the Board of Supervisors to waive the community center requirement in single
family small lot subdivisions that contain less than 25 lots.
STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 09/20/06 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING:
While the land use proposed in this application is generally consistent with the Comprehensive Policy
Plan, as described in the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan, this application fails to
address and mitigate various issues of transportation and recreation. Elements of the rezoning
application have been identified that should be carefully evaluated to ensure that they fully address the
goals of the County. Specifically, this applicant has not addressed the Senseny Road improvements, the
construction of a bike/pedestrian facility and the recreational requirements of this development. The
applicant should be prepared to address theses issues. Please note that two recommendations are
required for this application, one for the waiver and one for the rezoning.
PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY AND ACTION OF THE 09/20/06 MEETING:
Members of the Commission asked the applicant if he had considered an inter -parcel connector at the
cul-de-sac to the east or the possibility of acquiring the vacant lot on Parkwood Circle for an inter -parcel
connector. The applicant replied that not only was there a drainage area through the location to the east,
but it would compromise the area they had planned for their recreational amenities; he said the other
open area on the site was designated for stormwater detention. The applicant said he had not pursued the
possibility of purchasing the vacant lot on Parkwood Circle.
Rezoning # 1 1-06 — Abram's Chase
October 13, 2006
Page 9
Considering how much of the property was within a floodplain, a member of the Commission raised the
possibility that housing sites could be lost or the road location may have to be moved. The applicant
responded that the results of a site -distance study they conducted eliminated any leeway in the location of
the road. The applicant assured the Commission that a wetlands study would be conducted at the MDP
stage, as requested by the County's engineer.
One citizen spoke in opposition to the rezoning; she did not believe the proposed development supported
the County's vision for good planning. She did not think this site, nor the other surrounding vacant
parcels, should be a continuation of the less -than -desirable type of development this area has been
experiencing.
The Planning Staff pointed out that the inter -parcel connection is required by the zoning ordinance and
was a non -debatable issue, unless waived by the Board of Supervisors. Staff noted that the ordinance
also requires a waiver of the community center to be done at the MDP or subdivision stage. In addition,
Staff noted the inappropriateness of the applicant adjusting the cash proffer contribution at this point in
the process. Regarding the entrance separation along Senseny Road, Staff commented that the 200 feet
proposed by the applicant did not meet the desired separation of 500 feet, which is recommended in
VDOT's subdivision design manual.
Commission members said they were having difficulty finding any redeeming values in the proposal
from a planning standpoint. They were concerned this project may set a precedent for similar
developments in this area. They were concerned about the possibility of having six cul-de-sacs within a
1,200-foot distance, each with 134 trips per day, along Senseny Road, which already had traffic
problems. Although there were questions whether approving this rezoning represented good planning, a
concern was raised about the future of this particular area, which seemed to be a conglomeration of small
parcels. The question of how the parcels in this area could be integrated to create good planning was
raised. The possibility of a solution through the UDA Study was suggested. Members of the
Commission wanted to give the applicant more time to address some of the issues in order to make the
project work. By a majority vote, the Commission tabled the rezoning for 90 days.

REVIEW EVALUATIONS:
Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The documentation within the application to rezone this property
appears to have little measurable impact on Route 656. This route is the VDOT roadway which has
been considered as the access to the property referenced. VDOT is satisfied that the transportation
proffers offered in the Abram's Chase Subdivision rezoning application dated March 1, 2006 addresses
transportation concerns associated with this request. Before development, this office will require a
complete set of construction plans detailing entrance designs, drainage features, and traffic flow data
from the I.T.C. Trip General Manual, Sixth Edition for review. VDOT reserves the right to comment on
all right-of-way needs, including right-of-way dedications, traffic signalization, and off -site roadway
improvements and drainage. Any work performed on the State's right-of-way must be covered under a
land use permit. This permit is issued by this office and requires an inspection fee and surety bond
coverage.
Fire Maishal: Plan approval recommended.
Greenwood Volunteer Fire Company: Agreed to.
Public Works Department: Refer to Wetlands, Page 3: A detailed wetlands delineation study will be
required with the master development plan submittal. Refer to Site Drainage, Page 7: During the
subdivision design phase, it will be necessary to route the 100-year storms through the existing drainage
swales to determine the impact on the proposed development. Any stormwater ponds shall be
constructed above the maximum 100-year storm level. Refer to Solid Waste Disposal, Page 7: The
narrative references the close proximity to the Greenwood Citizens' Convenience Center. This site has
been scheduled to be closed within the next two years. Therefore, we recommend that curbside trash
pickup be provided by the developer or Home Owners' Association. This requirement should be
included in the analysis and proffer statement.
Frederick -Winchester Service Authority: There is adequate water and sewer capacity to serve this
rezoning request.
Sanitation Authority: No comments.
Department of Parks & Recreation: As of this review, a minimum of three recreational units are
required for this development. However, if a waiver is approved, an appropriate value for recreational
amenities must be determined. The proposed asphalt walkway to adjacent property should meet
Frederick County Standards. Plan appears to offer the appropriate amount of open space. The proposed
monetary proffer for Parks and Recreation appears to address the impact Abram's Chase will have on
this department's capital facility needs.
Frederick County Public Schools: Based on the information provided, it is anticipated that the
proposed 14 single family homes will yield two high school students, two middle school students and
five elementary school students for a total of nine new students upon build -out. Significant residential
growth in Frederick County has resulted in the schools serving this area having student enrollments
•
Rezoning # 1 1-06 — Abram's Chase

Page 3
nearing or exceeding the practical capacity for a school. Even with only nine new students upon build -
out, the cumulative impact of this project and others, coupled with the number of approved,
undeveloped residential lots in the area, will necessitate the fixture construction of new school facilities
to accommodate increased student enrollments.
Winchester Regional Airport: While the proposed development lies within the airport[s Part 77
surfaces and airspace, it appears that the proposed site plan should not impact operations at the
Winchester Regional Airport. Residents should be forewarned that due to the proximity of the site to
the Winchester Airport, they may experience noise from over flight of aircraft arriving to and departing
from the airport from the northeast.
Frederick County Attorney: It is my opinion that the Proffer Statement is generally in a form to meet
the requirements of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance and the Code of Virginia, subject to the
following comments: 1. Proffer A provides that the property will develop in substantial conformity
with the attached Generalized Development Plan (GDP). The GDP was not attached to the copy of the
Proffer Statement provided to me. Therefore, this review is provided without a review of the GDP. 2.
Proffer B limits the dwelling units to "14 single family detached residential dwelling units on small
lots". It is assumed that this is a reference to the "single family small lot" type of development
identified in Section 165-65F of the Zoning Ordinance. 3. Proffer C proposes to provide tot lot
equipment, park benches, and an asphalt pedestrian walkway as community recreational facilities in lieu
of a community center, of the community center is waived by the Frederick County Board of
Supervisors. However, my review of Section 165-64(A)(1) indicates that the Board of Supervisors can
waive the community center requirement of Section 165-64(A) in proffered age -restricted single family
small lot subdivisions that contain less than 50 lots. Iowever, there is nothing in the proffer provided
to me to indicate that this development is to be an age -restricted development. Accordingly, I question
whether the waiver provision applies, so as to permit the elimination of the community center for this
small lot housing development. 4. Proffers D(1) and D(2) provide for the construction of a right turn
and taper lane and for the dedication of right-of-way. However, neither proffer establishes a timing
requirement for the construction and dedication. A timing requirement satisfactory to the County
should be included in each proffer. 5. hi Proffer E the first clause is redundant and should be deleted.
The proffer should commence as the other proffers have commenced with the language "the Applicant
will pay...". It should be noted that I have not reviewed the substance of the proffers as to whether the
proffers are suitable and appropriate for the rezoning of this specific property, or whether other proffers
would be appropriate, as it is my understanding that that review will be done by the staff and the
Planning Commission.
Historic Resources Advisory Board: Upon review of the proposed rezoning, it appears that the
proposal does not significantly impact historic resources and it is not necessary to schedule a formal
review of the rezoning application by the I IRAB. According to the Rural Landmarks Survey, there are
no significant historic structures located on the properties nor are there any possible historic districts in
the vicinity. It was also noted that the National Park Service Study of Civil War Sites in the
Shenandoah Valley does not identify any core battlefields that this proposed rezoning would directly
impact.

Planning & Zoning:
1) Site History
The original Frederick County Zoning Map (U.S.G.S. Stephenson Quadrangle) identifies the
parcel as being zoned A-2 Agricultural. The County's A -I and A-2 agricultural zoning districts
were combined to form the RA (Rural Areas) District upon adoption of an amendment to the
Frederick County Zoning Ordinance on May 10, 1989. The corresponding revision of the zoning
map resulted in the re -mapping of the subject property and all other A-1 and A-2 zoned land to
the RA (Rural Areas) District. Parcels 65-A-27A and 65-A-28A maintain this RA zoning
classification.
2) Comprehensive Policy Plan
The Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan is an official public document that serves as
the community's guide for making decisions regarding development, preservation, public
facilities and other key components of community life. The primary goal of this plan is to
protect and improve the living environment within Frederick County. It is in essence a
composition of policies used to plan for the future physical development of Frederick County.
[Comprehensive Policy Plan, p. 1-1]
1,ff11 d T Icw
The parcels comprising this rezoning application are located within the County's Urban
Development Area (UDA) and Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA). The Urban
Development Area defines the general area in which more intensive forms of residential
development will occur. In addition, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan
Map identifies this general area with future residential land uses.
Transportation
The Frederick County Eastern Road Plan provides guidance regarding fixture arterial and
collector road connections in the eastern portion of the County by identifying needed
connections and locations. Plans for new development should provide for the right-of-ways
necessary to implement planned road improvements and new roads shown on the road plan
should be constructed by the developer when warranted by the scale, intensity, or impacts of the
development. Existing roads should be improved as necessary by adjacent development to
implement the intentions of the plan (Comprehensive Plan 7-6).
Senseny Road is identified as an improved major collector road and should be addressed
accordingly. In addition, Senseny Road is recognized in the Frederick County Bicycle Plan with
a short term designation for bicycle accommodations. Access to the site would be via a new
street that would be in the form of a cul-de-sac as indicated on the Generalized Development
Plan.

A. Transportation
Traffic Impact Anal
The applicant's transportation analysts is minimal due to the limited scope of the proffered
development plan. Based upon the ITE Trip Generation Manual, the fourteen lot single family
detached residential project will generate approximately 134 vehicle trips per day. Senseny
Road in this area has a variable right-of-way. The applicant has proffered to dedicate necessary
right-of-way as well as build a right turn and taper lane within the Senseny Road right-of-way.
Staff Note: The applicant has proffered to dedicate right -of -wiry sufficient to provide for 45
feet from the existing Senseny Road centerline. This project should be implementing the
Senseny Road expansion plaits (proposed four lanes), including construction of the
additional lane and curb and gutter along the frontage of their site. The inclusion of the
right turn taper lane should be in addition and outside of the road expansion area. This
rezoning has not addressed this improvement.
Transportation Program.
The applicant will be constructing a new street to provide access to the fourteen lot subdivision
which will traverse through the center of the subject site. The location of the access point onto
Senseny Road is approximately two hundred feet from the closest road, Parkwood Drive. Also
provided by the applicant in the proffer statement is a commitment to provide a monetary
contribution in the amount of $1,000.00 per residential lot to address transportation general
needs in the vicinity of this project.
Staff Note: It is noted that recent single family rezonings in this area have provided a
transportation proffer of $5, 000 per dwelling unit (Senseny Road Rentals, Senseny Village) to
help with road improvements as well as a proffer to construct the Senseny Road expansions
on their property (Orrick, Senseny Road Rentals). This rezoning proposal has not addressed
the transportation impact similar to other recent rezonings.
Recent projects along Senseny Road have proposed the construction of additional lanes along
Senseny Road as well as the implementation of a ten foot wide hiker/biker trail along the north
side of Senseny Road. This approach should be a consistent consideration as projects are
proposed along the Senseny Road corridor. While this project has reserved the right-of-way for

A) Generalized Development Plan
The applicant has proffered to develop the property in substantial conformance with the
GDP provided in the rezoning application.
B) Residential Land Use
The applicant proffers to develop a maximum of 14 single family detached residential
units on small lots.
Staff Note: With the single family small lot designation, this projecl could develop lots
as small as 3, 750 square feet.
C) Recreational Amenities
The applicant proffers to develop a community recreational area that will be located as
shown on the GDP. This area will contain tot lot equipment valued at a minimum of
$35,000, park benches, and an asphalt pedestrian walkway. The recreational amenities
provided with this proffer are in -lieu of a community center building if waived by the
Board of Supervisors.
Staff Note: As stated in the last sentence of the proffer, in order to implement this
proffer, the applicant would need to apply for and receive a waiver of the community
center requirementfor single family small lot developments per §165-64A(1) of the
Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. Tluis waiver would need to be sought duuriuug

Staff Note: The $35,000 amoruit included in the proffer is tlue prorated (unounut for
the community center should the Board of Supervisors waive the recreational
community center and allow the applicant to prorate the requirement of three
recreational units for each 30 dwellings. If the waiver is not granted by the Board,
the applicant would be required to provide a community center. The inclusion of
this proffer is not appropriate since it is limiting the dollar amount of the
recreational unit (if the project is not built immediately the dollar amount per
recreational unit is limited, even if the recreational unit amount increases per county
requirements). It seems inappropriate to discuss recreational values at this point
since the community center is not permitted for consideration until the MDP phase.
D) Transporlation Enhancements
1. The applicant will construct a right -turn and taper lane within the public right-of-
way that connects Parkwood Drive to the cul-de-sac serving the property. This

E) Monetary Contribution
A monetary contribution in the amount of $23,290.00 to Frederick County, to be
provided at the time each residential lot is platted, is proffered in an effort to mitigate
the impacts associated with this development on community facilities.
6) Waivers
The applicant has requested that the Board of Supervisors provide this development with a
waiver of the community center requirement for single family small lot developments in
accordance with § 165-64A(1) of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. This section of the
ordinance allows the Board of Supervisors to waive the community center requirement in single
family small lot subdivisions that contain less than 25 lots.
STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 09/20/06 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING:
While the land use proposed in this application is generally consistent with the Comprehensive Policy
Plan, as described in the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan, this application fails to
address and mitigate various issues of transportation and recreation. Elements of the rezoning
application have been identified that should be carefully evaluated to ensure that they fully address the
goals of the County. Specifically, this applicant has not addressed the Senseny Road improvements, the
construction of a bike/pedestrian facility and the recreational requirements of this development. The
applicant should be prepared to address theses issues. Please note that two recommendations are
required for this application, one for the waiver and one for the rezoning.
Following the requirement for a public hearing, a recommendation
by the Planning Commission to the Board of Supervisors concerning this rezoning
application would be appropriate. The applicant should be prepared to adequately
address all concerns raised by the Planning Commission.

RE: Abram's Chase Rezoning Application
Dear Candice:
DEC 1
The Planning Commission tabled the proposed rezoning application for the Abram's
Chase Subdivision on September 20, 2006 to allow the applicant an opportunity to
address the concerns presented by staff. These concerns included the need for the
development to provide for state street connectivity to the west, the need for
improvements to Senseny Road (Route 657), the need to provide for a bicycle and
pedestrian facility and concerns with a proposal to waive the community center
requirement during the rezoning process. The following revisions have been made to the
Abram's Chase Proffer Statement in an attempt to address these concerns:
➢ Proffer A provides for a new Generalized Development Plan design layout that
includes state street connectivity to the west, a new travel lane on Senseny Road
that connects to Parkwood Circle, a turn lane into the project, a 10-foot bicycle
and pedestrian facility, an ingress/egress easement for the adjoining property and
eliminates the recreational area.
➢ Proffer B reduces the total number of residential lots from 14 single-family small
lots to 13 single-family small lots.
➢ Proffer C(1) provides for the continuation of the public street system to allow for
inter -parcel connectivity to the adjoining parcel to the west.
➢ Proffer C(2) provides for the development of an additional 12-foot westbound
travel lane on Senseny Road along the frontage of the project.
➢ Proffer C(5) provides for the development of a 10-foot asphalt bicycle and
pedestrian facility along the entire frontage of the project.
➢ Proffer C(6) provides for a curb cut and ingress/egress easement that will allow
for the adjacent small parcel to access the internal public street in the project.
➢ Proffer D maintains the monetary contribution recommended by the County's
Development Impact Model when the rezoning application was filed.
➢ The former proffer pertaining to the community center waiver and proposed
recreational values has been eliminated.

RE: Preliminary Comments — Abrams Chase Rezoning Proposal
Dear Evan:
This correspondence is intended to identify issues of concern regarding the preliminary application
materials for the Abrams Chase rezoning proposal. The preliminary application package, as submitted on
March 21, 2006, consists of the following principal components: (1) Rezoning Application Form; (2)
Impact Analysis Statement, dated March 1, 2006; (3) Proposed Proffer Statement dated March 1, 2006;
and (4) Generalized Development Plan (GDP) dated March 2006. It is anticipated that these issues will
be fully addressed through revisions to the application prior to its consideration by the Planning
Commission and Board of Supervisors. The following comments are offered for your records:
Impact Statement
- A. Introduction
The housing type being proposed with this application is single farnily small lot which is intended
to be marketed as a "starter home community". This starter home community reference is only
mentioned in the first paragraph of the impact statement. It is unclear how this development will
be affordable by first time home buyers.
B. Comprehensive Policy lan
The site is not within the limits of any small area plans in the Comprehensive Policy Plan;
however, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan identifies the entire
Senseny Road corridor for residential uses.
B. Transportation
The Eastern Road Plan of the Comprehensive Policy Plan designates Senseny Road as an
improved major collector. This translates to a four -lane divided boulevard section, such as is
being implemented with Warrior Drive. The applicant will need to ensure that the

Page 2
application addresses expansion plans for these roads and that all road improvements,
especially turn lanes, respect the long-term road center line.
Since Senseny Road is designated as a major collector road, it requires 200' entrance spacing
from all driveways and intersections. While it appears that the entrance spacing is met from
Parkwood Circle, the spacing is not being met off of the adjacent residential driveways. A
waiver from the Planning Commission would be required to reduce the required entrance
spacing.
Proffer Statement
A. Generalized Development Plan
The GDP submitted with the impact statement does not account for any of the residential
separation buffers required on the site. The GDP does not accommodate a location for the
required community center, which is required for single family small lot subdivisions.
B. Recreational Amenities
The proffer states that this project will contain a tot lot, park benches and an asphalt pedestrian
walkway that will connect the internal sidewalk system to the community recreational area.
These amenities are intended to be in -lieu of the community center that is required by ordinance.
This development is not proffered age restricted and currently does not qualify for any waivers.
A ten foot asphalt hiker biker path is being provided by other developments along Senseny Road
and should also be provided with this development.
C. Transportation Enhancements
A right turn and taper is going to be installed; the proffer needs to include when this will be
installed (prior to the first building permit). Also, state that the road within the development will
be a public road dedicated to VDOT.
The proffer states that the applicant will dedicate right-of-way sufficient "to provide for 45 feet
from the existing Senseny Road (Route 657) centerline to allow for future road improvements by
others". The applicant will need to verify with county staff and VDOT that there will be
sufficient right-of-way to accommodate long range road plans. The exact amount of dedicated
right-of-way needs to be provided along with a guarantee that this site will construct its portion of
the planned improvements.

Subject: VDOT Rezoning Comments: Abram's Chase Subdivision
The documentation within the application to rezone this property appears to have little
measurable impact on Route 656. This route is the VDOT roadway which has been considered
as the access to the property referenced.
VDOT is satisfied that the transportation proffers offered in the Abram's Chase Subdivision
Rezoning Application dated March 1, 2006 addresses transportation concerns associated with
this request.
Before development, this office will require a complete set of construction plans detailing
entrance designs, drainage features, and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation
Manual, Seventh Edition for review. VDOT reserves the right to comment on all right-of-way
needs, including right-of-way dedications, traffic signalization, and off -site roadway
improvements and drainage. Any work performed on the State's right-of-way must be
covered under a land use permit. This permit is issued by this office and requires an
inspection fee and surety bond coverage.
Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to comment.

We have completed our review of the rezoning application for the Abram's Chase Subdivision
and offer the following comments:
Refer to Wetlands, Page ?: A detailed wetlands delineation study will be required with the
master development plan submittal.
Refer to Site Drainage, Page 7: During the subdivision design phase, it will be necessary to route
the 100-year storms through the existing drainage swales to determine the impact on the
proposed development. Any stormwater ponds shall be constructed above the maximum 100-
year storm level.
Refer to Solid Waste Disposal, Page 7: The narrative references the close proximity to the
Greenwood Citizens' Convenience Center. This site has been scheduled to be closed within the
next two (2) years. Therefore, we recommend that curbside trash pickup be provided by the
developer or Home Owners' Association. This requirement should be included in the analysis
and proffer statement.
I can be reached at 722-8214 if you should have any questions regarding the above comments.

RE: Rezoning Comments for Abram's Chase Subdivision Project
e-mail:
kapocsis@frederick.k12.va.us
This letter is in response to your request for comments regarding the rezoning application
for the proposed Abram's Chase Subdivision project. Based on the information provided, it is
anticipated that the proposed 14 single-family homes will yield 2 high school students, 2 middle
school students, and 5 elementary school students for a total of 9 new students upon build -out.
Significant residential growth in Frederick County has resulted in the schools serving this
area having student enrollments nearing or exceeding the practical capacity for a school. Even
with only nine new students upon build -out, the cumulative impact of this project and others,
coupled with the number of approved, undeveloped residential lots in the area, will necessitate
the future construction of new schools facilities to accommodate increased student enrollments.
Respectfully yours,

Dear Mr. Wyatt:
The above referenced rezoning application was reviewed. While the proposed
development lies within the airport's Part 77 surfaces and airspace, it appears
that the proposed site plan should not impact operations at the Winchester
Regional Airport.
Residents should be forewarned that due to the proximity of the site to the
Winchester Airport, they may experience noise from over flight of aircraft arriving
to and departing from the airport from the northeast.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe
operations of the Winchester Regional Airport.

Proffer Statement
Dear Susan:
AUG 1 8 2006
PLEASE REPLY TO:
P. O. Box 848
WINCHESTER, VIRGINIA 22604-0848
I have reviewed the above -referenced Proffer Statement. It is my opinion that
the Proffer Statement is generally in a form to meet the requirements of the Frederick
County Zoning Ordinance and the Code of Virginia, subject to the following
comments:
1. Proffer A provides that the property will developed in substantial
conformity with the attached Generalized Development Plan ("GDP"). The GDP was
not attached to the copy of the Proffer Statement provided to me. Therefore, this
review is provided without a review of the GDP.
2. Proffer B limits the dwelling units to "14 single-family detached
residential dwelling units on small lots." It is assumed that this is a reference to the
"single-family small lot" type of development identified in Section 165-65 F of the
Zoning Ordinance.

3. Proffer C proposes to provide tot lot equipment, park benches, and
an asphalt pedestrian walkway as conununity recreational facilities in -lieu of a
community center, if the conullunity center is waived by the Frederick County Board
of Supervisors. However, my review of Section 165-64 (A)(1) indicates that the
Board of Supervisors can waive the con-u-nunity center requirement of Section 165-64
(A) in proffered age -restricted single-family small lot subdivisions that contain less
than 50 lots. However, there is nothing in the proffer provided to me to indicate that
this development is to be an age -restricted development. Accordingly, I question
whether the waiver provision applies, so as to permit the elimination of the
community center for this small lot housing development.
. 4. Proffers D(1) and D(2) provide for the construction of a right turn and
taper lane and for the dedication of right of way. However, neither proffer establishes
a timing requirement for the construction and dedication. A timing requirement
satisfactory to the County should be included in each proffer.
5. In Proffer E the first clause is redundant and should be deleted. The
proffer should continence as the other proffers have conunenced with the language
"the Applicant will pay ..."
It should be noted that I have not reviewed the substance of the proffers as to
whether the proffers are suitable and appropriate for the rezoning of this specific
property, or whether other proffers would be appropriate, as it is my understanding
that that review will be done by the staff and the Planning Commission.

ABRAM'S CHASE REZONING
INTRODUCTION
Abram's Chase Rezoning
This report has been prepared for the purpose of assessing the impact on Fredrick County by
the proffered rezoning of a 3.25±-acre subject property identified as Abram's Chase and
owned by Harvest Communities, Inc. The subject property consists of two contiguous
parcels identified as Tax Map Parcel 65-((A))-27A containing 1.68±-acres and Tax Map
Parcel 65-((A))-28A containing 1.57±-acres. The subject site is located on the north side of
Senseny Road (Route 657), adjacent to the Parkwood Manor Subdivision. The Applicant
proposes to conditionally rezone the 3.25±-acre subject site from RA, Rural Areas District to
RP, Residential Performance District. The Applicant plans to develop the subject property as
single-family detached residential housing on small lots.
Basic information
Location: Fronting on the north side of Senseny Road (Route
657), adjacent to the Parkwood Manor Subdivision.
Magisterial District: Red Bud
Property ID Numbers: 65-((A))-27A and 65-((A))-28A
Current Zoning: RA, Rural Areas District
Current Use: Residential
Proposed Use: Residential, Single-family detached residential housing
on small lots
Proposed Zoning: RP, Residential Performance District
Total rezoning area: 3.25±-acres
Proposed build -out 14 Single-family detached residential units on small

Revised May 19, 2006
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Urban Development Area
The 3.25±-acre subject site is currently located within the Urban Development Area (UDA).
The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that new suburban residential development will be
located with the boundaries of the UDA. Therefore, the proposal to rezone the 3.25±-acre
subject site to RP, Residential Performance District is in conformance with the
Comprehensive Policy Plan.
Sewer and Water Service Area
The 3.25±-acre subject site is currently located within the Sewer and Water Service Area
(SWSA). The Comprehensive Policy Plan identifies the SWSA as the area in which public
water and sewer infrastructure is to be located, which determines where urban development
will occur. Therefore, the proposal to rezone the 3.25±-acre subject site to RP, Residential
Performance District is in conformance with the Comprehensive Policy Plan
recommendations for water and sewer service.
SUITABILITY OF THE SITE
Access
The 3.25±-acre subject site is located on the north side of Senseny Road (Route 657),
approximately %2-mile east of the intersection of Senseny Road and Greenwood Road (Route
656). Senseny Road is identified as a major collector road and currently has one eastbound
and one westbound travel lane. The Abram's Chase Subdivision will only have one
connection to Senseny Road that will be located a minimum of 200 feet to the west of
Parkwood Circle. The Applicant has conducted a site distance study that has been reviewed
by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to ensure that vehicles can safely
access the Abram's Chase Subdivision from Senseny Road. All residential lots within the
Abram's Chase Subdivision will be served by a state maintained street with sidewalks that is
dedicated to VDOT.
Flood Plains
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain areas of floodplain as demonstrated on FEMA
NFIP Map #510063-0120-13 and on the Frederick County GIS Database. The subject site is
identified as a "Zone C" area of minimal flooding.
Wetlands
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain wetland areas as demonstrated on the National
Wetlands Inventory (NWI) Map information from the Frederick County GIS Database.

Soil Types
March I, 2006
Revised May 19, 2006
Abram's Chase Rezoning
The 3.25±-acre subject site contains two soil types as demonstrated by the Soil Survey of
Frederick County, Virginia (page 36) and the Frederick County GIS Database. The
following soil types are present on site:
9B Clearbrook Charmery Silt Loams 2-7% slope
41C Weikert-Becks Silt Loams 7-15% slope
41D Weikert-Becks Silt Loams 15-25% slope
Table 5 on page 123 of the Soil Survey of Frederick County, Virginia does not designate
either soil type found on the 3.25±-acre site as prime farmland soils. The soils types are
generally classified as moderate for development purposes because of slope, depth to rock
and wetness. These soils types are consistent with the soil types found in the Parkwood
Manor, Lynnhaven, and Sovereign Village subdivisions surrounding the subject site;
therefore, the soil types are suitable for residential development.
Other Environmental Features
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain areas of steep slope, lakes or ponds or natural
stormwater retention areas as defined by the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. There are
no environmental features present that create development constraints on the subject site.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
Adjoining property zoning and present use:
North: RP, Residential Performance District

Use: Parkwood Manor Subdivision
Use: Residential
The Abram's Chase Subdivision is proffered to be developed with a maximum of 14 single-
family detached residential units on small lots. All vehicle trips associated with the
residential lots will access Senseny Road (Route 657) at a single entrance point and will
either travel west towards Greenwood Road (Route 656) to access Millwood Pike (Route 50
East) and the City of Winchester, or will travel east to access Berryville Pike (Route 7) to
points east of Frederick County.

Greenway Engineering March 1, 2006 Abram's Chase Rezoning
Revised May 19, 2006
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) 2004 Annual Average Daily Traffic
Volumes Estimates identify the segment of Senseny Road (Route 657) between Greenwood
Road (Route 656) and Rossum Lane (Route 736) with an average volume of 5,500 vehicle
trips per day (VPD). The ITE Trip Generation 7t" Edition identifies single-family detached
housing (ITE 210) with an average rate of 9.57 VPD per household. Therefore, the proffered
14-lot single-family detached subdivision is anticipated to generate a maximum of 134 VPD.
The 134 VPD represents an increase of approximately 2.5% of the 2004 average volume on
Senseny Road and an increase of approximately 2.2% of the 2006 average volume on
Senseny Road assuming a 5% annual increase in traffic volume on the segment. Assuming a
70% traffic split for vehicles traveling west and a 30% traffic split for vehicles traveling east,
the Abram's Chase Subdivision will generate approximately 94 VPD that will travel towards
Greenwood Road and the City of Winchester and will generate approximately 40 VPD that
will travel to points east of Frederick County.
A detailed traffic impact analysis statement (TIA) was prepared for the Senseny Village
Subdivision, which was approved by Frederick County and VDOT in calendar year 2005.
This TIA projected the impacts to the same segment of Senseny Road (Route 657) and the
intersection of Senseny Road and Greenwood Road (Route 656) throughout the anticipated
buildout year of 2010. The results of this TIA demonstrated that Senseny Road and the
intersection of Senseny Road and Greenwood Road functioned at an acceptable level of
service (LOS) throughout the buildout year under current geometric conditions.
The Abram's Chase Subdivision will be built out in calendar year 2007, prior to the build out
of the Senseny Village Subdivision; therefore, the current geometric conditions of this road
segment and of the Senseny Road/Greenwood Road intersection will be able to accommodate
this projected increase in average daily traffic volume. Furthermore, the Applicant's proffer
statement provides a $1,000 per residential unit monetary contribution to the Frederick
County General Transportation Fund that can be used unconditionally by the County towards
road improvements. The 134 VPD associated with the Abram's Chase Subdivision will not
create a negative impact to the transportation network and the Applicant's development
proposal offers an additional revenue source to assist Frederick County and VDOT with road
improvements.
SEWAGE CONVEYANCE AND TREATMENT
The 3.25±-acre subject site is located in the eastern portion of the Sewer and Water Service
Area (SWSA). There is an existing Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) 8"
sanitary sewer main and easement that is located along the northern portion of the subject
site. This sewer line will direct effluent from the Abram's Chase Subdivision to the new
Frederick County Sanitation Authority regional pump that will convey effluent to the
Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant (OWTP) located on Berryville Pike (Route 7).
Impacts of the proposed rezoning on the sewage conveyance and treatment system are based
on the proffered land use of 14 single-family detached dwelling units. Design figure
estimates are based on 225 gallons per day (GPD) per single-family detached unit.

Greenway Engineering March I, 2006 Abram's Chase Rezoning
Revised May 19, 2006
The figures below represent the impact that this project would have to the sewage
conveyance system and treatment system at full build -out of 14 dwelling units:
Q = 225 GPD per dwelling unit
Q = 225 GPD X 14 dwelling units
Q = 3,150 GPD
The proposed zoning is estimated to add 3,150 gallons per day to the public sewage
conveyance system and the Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant (OWTP). The design
capacity of the OWTP plant is currently 8.4 million gallons per day, of which the City and
the County are currently utilizing approximately 6.4 million gallons per day. The total build -
out of the Abram's Chase Subdivision would increase the treatment demands at the OWTP
by approximately 0.15% of the current available capacity at the OWTP; therefore, adequate
capacity, source and infrastructure is available to serve this development.
WATER SUPPLY
The 3.25±-acre subject site is located in the eastern portion of the Sewer and Water Service
Area (SWSA). There is an existing Frederick County Sanitation Authority FCSA 8-inch
water line along the north side of Senseny Road (Route 657) that adjoins the subject site and
will be utilized to serve the project. Potable water is provided to this area of Senseny Road
through a series of water transmission lines whose source is the Stephens City quarry system,
which is treated at the James H. Diehl Water Filtration Plant. This treatment plant provides
approximately 4.0 MGD of potable water and is expandable to treat 6.0 MGD.
Impacts of the proposed rezoning on the water supply system are based on the proffered land
use of 14 single-family detached dwelling units. Design figure estimates are based on 275
gallons per day (GPD) per single-family detached unit. The figures below represent the
impact that this project would have to the water supply system at full build -out of 14 single-
family residential dwelling units:
Q = 275 GPD per dwelling unit
Q = 275 GPD x 14 dwelling units
Q = 3,850 GPD
The Abram's Chase Subdivision will utilize an estimated 3,850 gallons of water per day.
Potable water is provided to this area of the SWSA through transmission from the Stephens
City quarry system and through water purchased from the City of Winchester. The projected
water usage at build -out is negligible. Therefore, adequate capacity, source and
infrastructure are available for this subdivision.

Revised May 19, 2006
SITE DRAINAGE
The 3.25±-acre subject site has pronounced drainage swales along the northern property
boundary and along the eastern property boundary. Stormwater flows from properties west
of the subject site through the drainage swale along the northern property boundary, while
properties on the south side of Senseny Road (Route 657) drain to a culvert system within the
Senseny Road right-of-way that discharges to the drainage swale along the eastern property
boundary. Stormwater leaves the subject site at the northeastern corner and flows through
the Lynnhaven and Sovereign Village subdivisions to the twin lakes on the properties
immediately to the east, ultimately draining to the Opequon Creek. On -site stormwater
management is proposed in the northeastern portion of the subject site to control the
increased run-off at or below pre -development rates, which will result from the development
of this site. All storm water management measures will be designed to meet state and local
standards and will be approved by the County Engineer.
SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL
The impact on solid waste disposal facilities can be projected from an average annual
residential consumption of 5.4 cubic yards per household (Civil Engineering Reference
Manual, 4"' edition). The following figures show the increase in average annual volume
based on the 14 residential units that will be developed in the Abram's Chase Subdivision:
AV = 5.4 cu. yd. per household
AV = 5.4 cu. yd. x 14 dwellings
AV = 75.6 cu. yd. at build -out, or 53 tons/yr at build -out
The Municipal Solid Waste area of the Regional Landfill has a current remaining capacity of
13,100,000 cubic yards of air space. The projected build -out of the Abram's Chase
Subdivision will generate approximately 53 tons of solid waste annually on average. This
represents a 0.02% increase in the annual solid waste received by the Municipal Solid Waste
area of the Regional Landfill, which currently averages 200,000 tons per year. The Abram's
Chase Subdivision is located within close proximity of the Regional Landfill and the
Greenwood Citizen Convenience Center. The Regional Landfill has adequate capacity to
accommodate the solid waste impacts associated with the 14-lot subdivision.
HISTORICAL SITES AND STRUCTURES
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain structures that are deemed eligible for the
national register or the state register of historic places. This site is not contained within any
core battlefield area designed by the National Park Service Civil War Sites in the
Shenandoah Valley or by the Frederick County GIS Database. The Frederick County Rural
Landmarks Survey does not identify any structure on the property as potentially significant.
Pile 94545H Impact Statement/EAW

Greenway Engineering March I, 2006 Abram's Chase Rezoning
Revised May 19, 2006
The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey identifies the Greenwood School (#34-421)
as a potentially significant structure within the closest proximity to the subject site. The
Greenwood School is located approximately 2/3-mile to the west of the subject site;
therefore, the development of the Abram's Chase Subdivision will not have any negative
impact to cultural resources or to the viewshed of any significant historical structure or site.
I. OTHER IMPACTS
The Frederick County Development Impact Model (DIM) was formally adopted by the
Frederick County Board of Supervisors in October 2005. The Board of Supervisors
authorized the DIM to be applied to rezoning applications that were filed for consideration as
of December 1, 2005. The new DIM assessment of Capital Facilities Impacts for single-
family detached residential dwelling units is $23,290.00 per unit. The $23,290.00 impact per
residential unit for Capital Facilities Impact is itemized as follows:
Fire and Rescue $ 720.00
General Government $ 320.00
Public Safety $ 658.00
Library $ 267.00
Parks and Recreation $ 2,136.00
School Construction $19,189.00
The Applicant's proffer statement provides a monetary contribution of $23,290.00 for each
residential dwelling unit that is to be paid to Frederick County at the time of building permit
issuance. Therefore, the Abram's Chase Subdivision will completely mitigate the Capital
Facilities Impacts to Frederick County for each residential dwelling unit prior to occupancy
of the unit. No additional impacts to County capital facilities are anticipated by this
residential development proposal.

ABRAM'S CHASE REZONING
Abram's Chase Rezoning
This report has been prepared for the purpose of assessing the impact on Fredrick County by
the proffered rezoning of a 3.25±-acre subject property identified as Abram's Chase and
owned by Harvest Communities, Inc. The subject property consists of two contiguous
parcels identified as Tax Map Parcel 65-((A))-27A containing 1.68±-acres and Tax Map
Parcel 65-((A))-28A containing 1.57±-acres. The subject site is located on the north side of
Senseny Road (Route 657), adjacent to the Parkwood Manor Subdivision. The Applicant
proposes to conditionally rezone the 3.25±-acre subject site from RA, Rural Areas District to
RP, Residential Performance District. The Applicant plans to develop the subject property as
single-family detached residential housing on small lots.

• COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Urban Development Area
The 3.25f-acre subject site is currently located within the Urban Development Area (UDA).
The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that new suburban residential development will be
located with the boundaries of the UDA. Therefore, the proposal to rezone the 3.25f-acre
subject site to RP, Residential Performance District is in conformance with the
Comprehensive Policy Plan.
Sewer and Water Service Area
The 3.25±-acre subject site is currently located within the Sewer and Water Service Area
(SWSA). The Comprehensive Policy Plan identifies the SWSA as the area in which public
water and sewer infrastructure is to be located, which determines where urban development
will occur. Therefore, the proposal to rezone the 3.25±-acre subject site to RP, Residential
Performance District is in conformance with the Comprehensive Policy Plan
recommendations for water and sewer service.
SUITABILITY OF THE SITE
• Access
The 3.25±-acre subject site is located on the north side of Senseny Road (Route 657),
approximately %2-mile east of the intersection of Senseny Road and Greenwood Road (Route
656). Senseny Road is identified as a major collector road and currently has one eastbound
and one westbound travel lane. The Abram's Chase Subdivision will only have one
connection to Senseny Road that will be located a minimum of 200 feet to the west of
Parkwood Circle. The Applicant has conducted a site distance study that has been reviewed
by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to ensure that vehicles can safely
access the Abram's Chase Subdivision from Senseny Road. All residential lots within the
Abram's Chase Subdivision will be served by a state maintained street with sidewalks that is
dedicated to VDOT.
Flood Plains
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain areas of floodplain as demonstrated on FEMA
NFIP Map #510063-0120-B and on the Frederick County GIS Database. The subject site is
identified as a "Zone C" area of minimal flooding.
Wetlands
• The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain wetland areas as demonstrated on the National
Wetlands Inventory (NWI) Map information from the Frederick County GIS Database.

Revised May 19, 2006
Soil Types
The 3.25±-acre subject site contains two soil types as demonstrated by the Soil Survey of
Frederick County, Virginia (page 36) and the Frederick County GIS Database. The
following soil types are present on site:
9B Clearbrook Channery Silt Loams 2-7% slope
41C Weikert-Becks Silt Loams 7-15% slope
41 D Weikert-Becks Silt Loams 15-25% slope
Table 5 on page 123 of the Soil Survey of Frederick County, Virginia does not designate
either soil type found on the 3.25±-acre site as prime farmland soils. The soils types are
generally classified as moderate for development purposes because of slope, depth to rock
and wetness. These soils types are consistent with the soil types found in the Parkwood
Manor, Lynnhaven, and Sovereign Village subdivisions surrounding the subject site;
therefore, the soil types are suitable for residential development.
Other Environmental Features
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain areas of steep slope, lakes or ponds or natural
stormwater retention areas as defined by the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. There are
no environmental features present that create development constraints on the subject site.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES

TRANSPORTATION
The Abram's Chase Subdivision is proffered to be developed with a maximum of 14 single-
family detached residential units on small lots. All vehicle trips associated with the
residential lots will access Senseny Road (Route 657) at a single entrance point and will
either travel west towards Greenwood Road (Route 656) to access Millwood Pike (Route 50
East) and the City of Winchester, or will travel east to access Berryville Pike (Route 7) to

Revised May 19, 2006
• The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) 2004 Annual Average Daily Traffic
Volumes Estimates identify the segment of Senseny Road (Route 657) between Greenwood
Road (Route 656) and Rossum Lane (Route 736) with an average volume of 5,500 vehicle
trips per day (VPD). The ITE Trip Generation 7t" Edition identifies single-family detached
housing (ITE 210) with an average rate of 9.57 VPD per household. Therefore, the proffered
14-lot single-family detached subdivision is anticipated to generate a maximum of 134 VPD.
The 134 VPD represents an increase of approximately 2.5% of the 2004 average volume on
Senseny Road and an increase of approximately 2.2% of the 2006 average volume on
Senseny Road assuming a 5% annual increase in traffic volume on the segment. Assuming a
70% traffic split for vehicles traveling west and a 30% traffic split for vehicles traveling east,
the Abram's Chase Subdivision will generate approximately 94 VPD that will travel towards
Greenwood Road and the City of Winchester and will generate approximately 40 VPD that
will travel to points east of Frederick County.
A detailed traffic impact analysis statement (TIA) was prepared for the Senseny Village
Subdivision, which was approved by Frederick County and VDOT in calendar year 2005.
This TIA projected the impacts to the same segment of Senseny Road (Route 657) and the
intersection of Senseny Road and Greenwood Road (Route 656) throughout the anticipated
buildout year of 2010. The results of this TIA demonstrated that Senseny Road and the
intersection of Senseny Road and Greenwood Road functioned at an acceptable level of
service (LOS) throughout the buildout year under current geometric conditions.
The Abram's Chase Subdivision will be built out in calendar year 2007, prior to the build out
of the Senseny Village Subdivision; therefore, the current geometric conditions of this road
segment and of the Senseny Road/Greenwood Road intersection will be able to accommodate
this projected increase in average daily traffic volume. Furthermore, the Applicant's proffer
statement provides a $1,000 per residential unit monetary contribution to the Frederick
County General Transportation Fund that can be used unconditionally by the County towards
road improvements. The 134 VPD associated with the Abram's Chase Subdivision will not
create a negative impact to the transportation network and the Applicant's development
proposal offers an additional revenue source to assist Frederick County and VDOT with road
improvements.
SEWAGE CONVEYANCE AND TREATMENT
The 3.25±-acre subject site is located in the eastern portion of the Sewer and Water Service
Area (SWSA). There is an existing Frederick County Sanitation Authority (FCSA) 8"
sanitary sewer main and easement that is located along the northern portion of the subject
site. This sewer line will direct effluent from the Abram's Chase Subdivision to the new
Frederick County Sanitation Authority regional pump that will convey effluent to the
Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant (OWTP) located on Berryville Pike (Route 7).
• Impacts of the proposed rezoning on the sewage conveyance and treatment system are based
on the proffered land use of 14 single-family detached dwelling units. Design figure
estimates are based on 225 gallons per day (GPD) per single-family detached unit.
Pile 945451A Impact StatemenUEAW
March I, 2006
Revised May 19, 2006
The figures below represent the impact that this project would have 1
conveyance system and treatment system at frill build -out of 14 dwelling units:
Q = 225 GPD per dwelling unit
Q = 225 GPD X 14 dwelling units
Q = 3,150 GPD
The proposed zoning is estimated to add 3,150 gallons per day to the public sewage
conveyance system and the Opequon Wastewater Treatment Plant (OWTP). The design
capacity of the OWTP plant is currently 8.4 million gallons per day, of which the City and
the County are currently utilizing approximately 6.4 million gallons per day. The total build -
out of the Abram's Chase Subdivision would increase the treatment demands at the OWTP
by approximately 0.15% of the current available capacity at the OWTP; therefore, adequate
capacity, source and infrastructure is available to serve this development.
WATER SUPPLY
The 3.25±-acre subject site is located in the eastern portion of the Sewer and Water Service
Area (SWSA). There is an existing Frederick County Sanitation Authority FCSA 8-inch
water line along the north side of Senseny Road (Route 657) that adjoins the subject site and
will be utilized to serve the project. Potable water is provided to this area of Senseny Road
through a series of water transmission lines whose source is the Stephens City quarry system,
which is treated at the James H. Diehl Water Filtration Plant. This treatment plant provides
approximately 4.0 MGD of potable water and is expandable to treat 6.0 MGD.
Impacts of the proposed rezoning on the water supply system are based on the proffered land
use of 14 single-family detached dwelling units. Design figure estimates are based on 275
gallons per day (GPD) per single-family detached unit. The figures below represent the
impact that this project would have to the water supply system at frill build -out of 14 single-
family residential dwelling units:
Q = 275 GPD per dwelling unit
Q = 275 GPD x 14 dwelling units
Q = 3,850 GPD
The Abram's Chase Subdivision will utilize an estimated 3,850 gallons of water per day.
Potable water is provided to this area of the SWSA through transmission from the Stephens
City quarry system and through water purchased from the City of Winchester. The projected
water usage at build -out is negligible. Therefore, adequate capacity, source and
infrastructure are available for this subdivision.

SITE DRAINAGE
The 3.25±-acre subject site has pronounced drainage swales along the northern property
boundary and along the eastern property boundary. Stormwater flows from properties west
of the subject site through the drainage swale along the northern property boundary, while
properties on the south side of Senseny Road (Route 657) drain to a culvert system within the
Senseny Road right-of-way that discharges to the drainage swale along the eastern property
boundary. Stormwater leaves the subject site at the northeastern corner and flows through
the Lynnhaven and Sovereign Village subdivisions to the twin lakes on the properties
immediately to the east, ultimately draining to the Opequon Creek. On -site stormwater
management is proposed in the northeastern portion of the subject site to control the
increased run-off at or below pre -development rates, which will result from the development
of this site. All storm water management measures will be designed to meet state and local
standards and will be approved by the County Engineer.
SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL
The impact on solid waste disposal facilities can be projected from an average annual
residential consumption of 5.4 cubic yards per household (Civil Engineering Reference
Manual, 4"' edition). The following figures show the increase in average annual volume
based on the 14 residential units that will be developed in the Abram's Chase Subdivision:
AV = 5.4 cu. yd. per household
AV = 5.4 cu. yd, x 14 dwellings
AV = 75.6 cu. yd. at build -out, or 53 tons/yr at build -out
The Municipal Solid Waste area of the Regional Landfill has a current remaining capacity of
13,100,000 cubic yards of air space. The projected build -out of the Abram's Chase
Subdivision will generate approximately 53 tons of solid waste annually on average. This
represents a 0.02%* increase in the annual solid waste received by the Municipal Solid Waste
area of the Regional Landfill, which currently averages 200,000 tons per year. The Abram's
Chase Subdivision is located within close proximity of the Regional Landfill and the
Greenwood Citizen Convenience Center. The Regional Landfill has adequate capacity to
accommodate the solid waste impacts associated with the 14-lot subdivision.
HISTORICAL SITES AND STRUCTURES
The 3.25±-acre subject site does not contain structures that are deemed eligible for the
national register or the state register of historic places. This site is not contained within any
core battlefield area designed by the National Park Service Civil War Sites in the
Shenandoah Valley or by the Frederick County GIS Database. The Frederick County Rural
Landmarks Survey does not identify any structure on the property as potentially significant.
File #45451-1 Impact Statement/EAW 7
•
Greenway Engineering March 1, 2006 Abram's Chase Rezoning
Revised May 19, 2006
The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey identifies the Greenwood School (#34-421)
as a potentially significant structure within the closest proximity to the subject site. The
Greenwood School is located approximately 2/3-mile to the west of the subject site;
therefore, the development of the Abram's Chase Subdivision will not have any negative
impact to cultural resources or to the viewshed of any significant historical structure or site.
I. OTHER IMPACTS
The Frederick County Development Impact Model (DIM) was formally adopted by the
Frederick County Board of Supervisors in October 2005. The Board of Supervisors
authorized the DIM to be applied to rezoning applications that were filed for consideration as
of December 1, 2005. The new DIM assessment of Capital Facilities Impacts for single-
family detached residential dwelling units is $23,290.00 per unit. The $23,290.00 impact per
residential unit for Capital Facilities Impact is itemized as follows:
Fire and Rescue $ 720.00
General Government $ 320.00
Public Safety $ 658.00
Library $ 267.00
Parks and Recreation $ 2,136.00
School Construction $19,189.00
The Applicant's proffer statement provides a monetary contribution of $23,290.00 for each
residential dwelling unit that is to be paid to Frederick County at the time of building permit
issuance. Therefore, the Abram's Chase Subdivision will completely mitigate the Capital
Facilities Impacts to Frederick County for each residential dwelling unit prior to occupancy
of the unit. No additional impacts to County capital facilities are anticipated by this
residential development proposal.

RE: Preliminary Comments — Abrams Chase Rezoning Proposal
Dear Evan:
This correspondence is intended to identify issues of concern regarding the preliminary application
materials for the Abrams Chase rezoning proposal. The preliminary application package, as submitted on
March 21, 2006. consists of the following principal components: (1) Rezoning Application Form; (2)
Impact Analysis Statement, dated March 1, 2006, (3) Proposed Proffer Statement dated March 1, 2006;
and (4) Generalized Development Plan (GDP) dated March 2006. It is anticipated that these issues will
be fully addressed through revisions to the application prior to its consideration by the Planning
Commission and Board of Supervisors. The following comments are offered for your records:
Impact Statement
A. Introduction
The housing type being proposed with this application is single family small lot which is intended
to be marketed as a "starter home community". This starter home community reference is only
mentioned in the first paragraph of the impact statement. It is unclear how this development will
be affordable by first time home buyers.
B. Comprehensive Policy Plan
The site is not within the limits of any small area plans in the Comprehensive Policy Plan;
however, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan identifies the entire
Senseny Road corridor for residential uses.
B. Transportation
The Eastern Road Plan of the Comprehensive Policy Plan designates Senseny Road as an
improved major collector. This translates to a four -lane divided boulevard section, such as is
• being implemented with Warrior Drive. The applicant will need to ensure that the

Mr. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering
RE: Abrams Chase
April 12, 2006
Page 2
application addresses expansion plans for these roads and that all road improvements,
especially turn lanes, respect the long-term road center line.
Since Senseny Road is designated as a major collector road, it requires 200' entrance spacing
from all driveways and intersections. While it appears that the entrance spacing is met from
Parkwood Circle, the spacing is not being met off of the adjacent residential driveways. A
waiver from the Planning Commission would be required to reduce the required entrance
spacing.
Proffer Statement
A. Generalized Development Plan
The GDP submitted with the impact statement does not account for any of the residential
separation buffers required on the site. The GDP does not accommodate a location for the
required community center, which is required for single family small lot subdivisions.
B. Recreational Amenities
The proffer states that this project will contain a tot lot, park benches and an asphalt pedestrian
walkway that will connect the internal sidewalk system to the community recreational area.
These amenities are intended to be in -lieu Of the community center that is required by ordinance.
This development is not proffered age restricted and currently does not qualify for any waivers.
A ten foot asphalt hiker biker path is being provided by other developments along Senseny Road
and should also be provided with this development.
C. Transportation Enhancements
A right turn and taper is going to be installed; the proffer needs to include when this will be
installed (prior to the first building permit). Also, state that the road within the development will
be a public road dedicated to VDOT.
The proffer states that the applicant will dedicate right-of-way sufficient "to provide for 45 feet
from the existing Senseny Road (Route 657) centerline to allow for future road improvements by
others". The applicant will need to verify with county staff and VDOT that there will be
sufficient right-of-way to accommodate long range road plans. The exact amount of dedicated
right-of-way needs to be provided along with a guarantee that this site will construct its portion of
the planned improvements.

Subject: VDOT Rezoning Comments: Abram's Chase Subdivision
The documentation within the application to rezone this property appears to have little
measurable impact on Route 656. This route is the VDOT roadway which has been considered
as the access to the property referenced.
VDOT is satisfied that the transportation proffers offered in the Abram's Chase Subdivision
Rezoning Application dated March 1, 2006 addresses transportation concerns associated with
this request.
Before development, this office will require a complete set of construction plans detailing
entrance designs, drainage features, and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation
Manual, Seventh Edition for review. VDOT reserves the right to comment on all right-of-way
needs, including right-of-way dedications, traffic signalization, and off -site roadway
improvements and drainage. Any work performed on the State's right-of-way must be
covered under a land use permit. This permit is issued by this office and requires an
inspection fee and surety bond coverage.
Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to comment.

Dear Evan:

FAX: 540/ 678-0682
We have completed our review of the rezoning application for the Abram's Chase Subdivision
and offer the following comments:
l . Refer to Wetlands, Page ?: A detailed wetlands delineation study will be required with the
master development plan submittal.
is 2. Refer to Site Drainage, Page 7: During the subdivision design phase, it will be necessary to route
the 100-year storms through the existing drainage swales to determine the impact on the
proposed development. Any stormwater ponds shall be constructed above the maximum 100-
year storm level.
Refer to Solid Waste Disposal, Page 7: The narrative references the close proximity to the
Greenwood Citizens' Convenience Center. This site has been scheduled to be closed within the
next two (2) years. Therefore, we recommend that curbside trash pickup be provided by the
developer or Home Owners' Association. This requirement should be included in the analysis
and proffer statement.
I can be reached at 722-8214 if you should have any questions regarding the above comments.

* As of this review, a minimum of three recreational units are required for this
development. However, if a waiver is approved an appropriate value for recreational
amenities must be determined.
* The proposed asphalt walkway to adjacent property should meet Frederick County
Standards.
* Plan appears to offer the appropriate amount of open space.
* The proposed monetary proffer for Parks and Recreation appears to address the impact
Abram's Chase will have on this departments' capital facility needs.

RE: Rezoning Comments for Abram's Chase Subdivision Project
e-mail:
kapocsis@frederick.k12.va.us
This letter is in response to your request for comments regarding the rezoning application
• for the proposed Abram's Chase Subdivision project. Based on the information provided, it is
anticipated that the proposed 14 single-family homes will yield 2 high school students, 2 middle
school students, and 5 elementary school students for a total of 9 new students upon build -out.
Significant residential growth in Frederick County has resulted in the schools serving this
area having student enrollments nearing or exceeding the practical capacity for a school. Even
with only nine new students upon build -out, the cumulative impact of this project and others,
coupled with the number of approved, undeveloped residential lots in the area, will necessitate
the future construction of new schools facilities to accommodate increased student enrollments.
Respectfully yours,

Dear Mr. Wyatt:
The above referenced rezoning application was reviewed. While the proposed
development lies within the airport's Part 77 surfaces and airspace, it appears
that the proposed site plan should not impact operations at the Winchester
Regional Airport.
Residents should be forewarned that due to the proximity of the site to the
Winchester Airport, they may experience noise from over flight of aircraft arriving
to and departing from the airport from the northeast.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe
operations of the Winchester Regional Airport.
Sincerely,

RE: Request for Historic Resources Advisory Board (HRAB) Comments
Abrams Chase Rezoning; PINS # 65-A-27A & 28A
Dear Mr. Wyatt:
Upon review of the proposed rezoning, it appears that the proposal does not significantly impact
• historic resources and it is not necessary to schedule a formal review of the rezoning application by
the HRAB. According to the Rural Landmarks Survey, there are no significant historic structures
located on the properties nor are there any possible historic districts in the vicinity. It was also noted
that the National Park Service Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley does not identify
any core battlefields that this proposed rezoning would directly impact.
Thank you for the chance to comment on this application. Please call if you have any questions or
concerns.

RE: Abram's Chase Rezoning Application
Dear Candice:
The Planning Commission tabled the proposed rezoning application for the Abram's
Chase Subdivision on September 20, 2006 to allow the applicant an opportunity to
address the concerns presented by staff. These concerns included the need for the
development to provide for state street connectivity to the west, the need for
improvements to Senseny Road (Route 657), the need to provide for a bicycle and
pedestrian facility and concerns with a proposal to waive the community center
requirement during the rezoning process. The following revisions have been made to the
Abram's Chase Proffer Statement in an attempt to address these concerns:
- Proffer A provides for a new Generalized Development Plan design layout that
includes state street connectivity to the west, a new travel lane on Senseny Road
that connects to Parkwood Circle, a turn lane into the project, a 10-foot bicycle
and pedestrian facility, an ingress/egress easement for the adjoining property and
eliminates the recreational area.
Proffer B reduces the total number of residential lots from 14 single-family small
lots to 13 single-family small lots.
Proffer C(1) provides for the continuation of the public street system to allow for
inter -parcel connectivity to the adjoining parcel to the west.
Proffer C(2) provides for the development of an additional 12-foot westbound
travel lane on Senseny Road along the frontage of the project.
Proffer C(5) provides for the development of a 10-foot asphalt bicycle and
pedestrian facility along the entire frontage of the project.
Proffer C(6) provides for a curb cut and ingress/egress easement that will allow
for the adjacent small parcel to access the internal public street in the project.
- Proffer D maintains the monetary contribution recommended by the County's
Development Impact Model when the rezoning application was filed.
The former proffer pertaining to the community center waiver and proposed
recreational values has been eliminated.

Dear Evan:

FAX: 540/678-0682
We have completed our review of the rezoning application for the Abram's Chase Subdivision
and offer the following comments:
Refer to Wetlands, Page ?: A detailed wetlands delineation study will be required with the
master development plan submittal.
Refer to Site Drainage, Page 7: During the subdivision design phase, it will be necessary to route
the 100-year storms through the existing drainage swales to determine the impact on the
proposed development. Any stormwater ponds shall be constructed above the maximum 100-
year storm level.
Refer to Solid Waste Disposal, Page 7: The narrative references the close proximity to the
Greenwood Citizens' Convenience Center. This site has been scheduled to be closed within the
next two (2) years. Therefore, we recommend that curbside trash pickup be provided by the
developer or Home Owners' Association. This requirement should be included in the analysis
and proffer statement.
I can be reached at 722-8214 if you should have any questions regarding the above comments.

RE: Preliminary Comments — Abrams Chase Rezoning Proposal
Dear Evan:
This correspondence is intended to identify issues of concern regarding the preliminary application
materials for the Abrams Chase rezoning proposal. The preliminary application package, as submitted on
March 21, 2006, consists of the following principal components: (1) Rezoning Application Form; (2)
Impact Analysis Statement, dated March 1, 2006; (3) Proposed Proffer Statement dated March 1, 2006;
and (4) Generalized Development Plan (GDP) dated March 2006. It is anticipated that these issues will
be fully addressed through revisions to the application prior to its consideration by the Planning
Commission and Board of Supervisors. The following comments are offered for your records:
Impact Statement
A. Introduction
The housing type being proposed with this application is single family small lot which is intended
to be marketed as a "starter home community". This starter home community reference is only
mentioned in the first paragraph of the impact statement. It is unclear how this development will
be affordable by first time home buyers.
B. Comprehensive Policy Plan
The site is not within the limits of any small area plans in the Comprehensive Policy Plan;
however, the Eastern Frederick County Long Range Land Use Plan identifies the entire
Senseny Road corridor for residential uses.
B. Transportation
The Eastern Road Plan of the Comprehensive Policy Plan designates Senseny Road as an
improved major collector. This translates to a four -lane divided boulevard section, such as is
being implemented with Warrior Drive. The applicant will need to ensure that the
107 North Kent Street, Suite 202 - Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000
Mr. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering
RE: Abrams Chase
April 12, 2006
Page 2
application addresses expansion plans for these roads and that all road improvements,
especially turn lanes, respect the long-term road center line.
Since Senseny Road is designated as a major collector road, it requires 200' entrance spacing
from all driveways and intersections. While it appears that the entrance spacing is met from
Parkwood Circle, the spacing is not being met off of the adjacent residential driveways. A
waiver from the Planning Commission would be required to reduce the required entrance
spacing.
Proffer Statement
A. Generalized Development Plan
The GDP submitted with the impact statement does not account for any of the residential
separation buffers required on the site. The GDP does not accommodate a location for the
required community center, which is required for single family small lot subdivisions.
B. Recreational Amenities
The proffer states that this project will contain a tot lot, park benches and an asphalt pedestrian
walkway that will connect the internal sidewalk system to the community recreational area.
These amenities are intended to be in -lieu of the community center that is required by ordinance.
This development is not proffered age restricted and currently does not qualify for any waivers.
A ten foot asphalt hiker biker path is being provided by other developments along Senseny Road
and should also be provided with this development.
C. Transportation Enhancements
A right turn and taper is going to be installed; the proffer needs to include when this will be
installed (prior to the first building permit). Also, state that the road within the development will
be a public road dedicated to VDOT.
The proffer states that the applicant will dedicate right-of-way sufficient "to provide for 45 feet
from the existing Senseny Road (Route 657) centerline to allow for future road improvements by
others". The applicant will need to verify with county staff and VDOT that there will be
sufficient right-of-way to accommodate long range road plans. The exact amount of dedicated
right-of-way needs to be provided along with a guarantee that th is site will construct its portion of
the planned improvements.

Fees
The fee for this application includes a $3,000.00 base fee plus $100.00 per acre, and a $50.00
public hearing sign fee. Thus, a total of $3,325.00 is due upon submission of the official
rezoning application. This is based on fees as of January 27, 2005. Fees may change.
This application will be complete once the above issues are satisfactorily addressed, a review fee is
submitted and all reviewing agency comments provided. Reviewing agencies include the following:
Frederick Couny) Fire Marshal and the local fire company, Frederick County Inspections, Frederick
Count) Public 11J07-ks, Frederick County Parks & Recreation, Frederick County Sanitation Authority,
Frederick County Service Authority, Frederick County HRAB, Virginia Department of Transportation,
and the Frederick County Attorneys Office.
Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions or concerns regarding this correspondence.

Rezoning 911-06 of Abram's Chase, submitted by Greenway Engineering, to rezone 3.25 acres from RA
(Rural Areas) to RP (Residential Performance) District with proffers for 14 single-family homes on small
lots. This property fronts on the north side of Senseny Road (Rt. 657), adjacent to the Parkwood Manor
Subdivision. The property is further identified with P.I.N. 65-A-27A and 65-A-28A in the Red Bud
Magisterial District.
Action — Tabled for 90 Days
Planner Candice E. Perkins reported that the Abram's Chase application is a request to rezone
3.25 acres to the RP (Residential Perfonnance) District to acconunodate 14 single-family, small -lot units with an
overall density of 4.3 units per acre. Ms. Perkins said the site is within the Eastern Frederick County Long Range
Land Use Plan as proposed residential and is located within the Urban Development Area (UDA) and the Sewer
and Water Service Area (SWSA). Ms. Perkins next summarized the proffer statement submitted by the applicant.
She noted that the recreational amenities provided with the proffer were in -lieu of a community center building, if
waived by the Board of Supervisors. She commented that staff believed this proffer is inappropriate because a
waiver cannot be sought for the community center until the master development plan (MDP) stage of the process.
Ms. Perkins also reported that staff has identified a number of issues that still need to be resolved by the
applicant. Specifically, this application has not addressed the Senseny Road improvements, the construction of a
bike/pedestrian facility, inter -parcel connections, monetary proffers, and the recreational requirements of the
development.
Mr. Evan A. Wyatt with Greenway Engineering was representing the property owner, Harvest
Communities, Inc., in this rezoning application. Mr. Wyatt said that regarding the inter -parcel connectivity, the
adjoining developments have been designed in such a fashion where connectivity is not conducive for roads like
Parkwood Circle or the roads in their project. Regarding the Senseny Road improvements, he said they were
willing to construct both an additional travel lane along the frontage of their property, as well as a turn/taper lane;
however, the construction of these improvements would necessitate them eliminating their previous proffer of
$1,000 per unit under Transportation Enhancements. Mr. Wyatt said since the north side of Senseny Road has
now been established as the County's designated area for the bicycle/ pedestrian facility, they would be willing to
construct the ten -foot asphalt pedestrian trail within their road efficiency buffer. He added that they were also
willing to amend their proffer statement to reflect the new fiscal impact model amount that was recently adopted
by the Board.
Conunissioner Unger asked Mr. Wyatt about the possibility of doing an inter -parcel connector at
the cul-de-sac to the east, in case that area would develop in the future. Mr. Wyatt pointed out a drainage area
through that particular location; he said it could be difficult and expensive to build a road system through there,
especially for the few parcels it would benefit. In addition, he said it would compromise the area where they
planned to place their recreational amenities. He also pointed out that the other open area on the site was
designated for their stormwater detention.
Conunissioner Kerr inquired if the vacant lot on Parkwood Circle could possibly be acquired to
tie into Park -wood Circle. Mr. Wyatt said they had not looked into that possibility.
Commissioner Oates comnnented that the wetlands study within the application involved simply
examining the County's GIS database, which in his experience, was lacking. Commissioner Oates asked Mr.
Wyatt if he had a professional look at the wetlands, since a considerable amount of this property was within the
Frederick County Planning Commission Page 1859
Minutes of September 20, 2006
• —6—
floodplain. Mr. Wyatt said they assumed the low area of the property will have wetlands; he said the County
Engineer is requesting a wetlands delineation study to be submitted with the MDP. Commissioner Oates said that
if the wetlands go far enough to the west, the applicant may lose an entire block of housing below the road; he
said the applicant may have to think about moving the road and placing homes just on one side. Mr. Wyatt said
that as a result of a site -distance study they conducted, the location of the road is pretty much set. Mr. Wyatt
assured the Commission the wetland delineation study will be conducted, if the rezoning is approved.
Chairman Wilmot asked Mr. Wyatt if the parcel remaining on Senseny Road was a residence;
she asked if there was an opportunity for that lot to tie into this project's road. Mr. Wyatt replied there was a
mobile home on the site. Mr. Wyatt said they would not have a problem, if the owner desired to do that. He said
they could grant them an access easement to do so.
Chairman Wilmot next called for public comments.
Ms. JoAnn Leonardis, a resident of the Red Bud District, came forward to speak in opposition to
this rezoning. Ms. Leonardis said that just because there is a similar development next door, does not mean there
should be another one like it and it doesn't mean it is the right thing. She said that just because there are other
neighborhoods without connectivity, does not mean another one should be built. Ms. Leonardis said the Planning
Department's web site gives ten principles for smart growth and the first one is to create a shared vision of the
future; she questioned whether the proposed development supported the County's vision for the future. She noted
there was a considerable amount of vacant land adjoining this project and across Senseny Road; she questioned
what would be proposed for those areas. Ms. Leonardis said there has been discussion about urban centers and
planning for the future; she asked if the 14 homes proposed here was good planning. She noted the second
principle for smart growth was to identify and sustain green infrastructure; she suggested the wetlands here be
made into something beautiful, with a public place and pedestrian paths.
There was no one else wishing to speak and Chairman Wilmot closed the public comment
portion of the meeting.
Planning Director, Eric R Lawrence, stated that the inter -parcel connection is required by an
ordinance adopted by the County in approximately June of 2005 and is not a debatable issue. Mr. Lawrence said
this issue will have to be addressed, unless the inter -parcel connection is waived by the Board. Mr. Lawrence
stated it was also not appropriate for the applicant to adjust the cash proffer contribution at this point in the
process; he said when an applicant submits a rezoning application to the county for consideration, that is the
model to be considered. Regarding the issue of the waiver of the comrnunity center, Mr. Lawrence said the
ordinance states the waiver is sought at the MDP stage; however, if there is no required MDP, it is done at the
j subdivision stage. He explained that the Board of Supervisors will see either the MDP or the subdivision and that
is the level where consideration of the waiver should be taken. In addition, Mr. Lawrence addressed the issue of
the entrance separation along Senseny Road; he said the VDOT subdivision design manual recormiiends a 500-
foot separation; therefore, the 200 foot proposed certainly does not meet the desired separation.
Commissioners said they were having difficulty finding any redeeming values in the proposal
from a planning standpoint. They were also concerned this project may set a precedent for similar developments.
The possibility of having six cul-de-sacs within a 1,200-foot distance, each with 134 trips per day, was reason
enough for concern, let alone the existing traffic problems along Senseny Road. They questioned whether
approving this rezoning as presented would be good planning for Frederick County.
Commissioner Mohn believed all of the comments made were a good representation of where the
County would like to proceed with development in the UDA. However, he was concerned about the next step for
this particular area, which seemed to be a conglomeration of small parcels. He said this area is within the UDA
Frederick County Planning Commission Page 1859
Minutes of September 20, 2006
and it is plarmed for residential; he questioned how these parcels will be integrated to create good planning. In
fairness to the property owners, he said the County may be waiting a long time for land to assemble and come up
with a solution. He suggested the County may be able to help, through the UDA Study, with identifying what the
alternative could be and making sure it functions properly.
Conunissioner Kerr said he would like to see the applicant be given more time to address some
of the issues because he believed there was away to make this project work. He said he didn't support the project
as it was presented, but, unfortunately, it is an in -fill situation, which makes it difficult. Commissioner Kerr
suggested that the applicant be given the opportunity to go back and address the issues that were raised.
Upon motion made by Commissioner Kerr and seconded by Commissioner Kriz,
BE IT RESOLVED, THAT by a majority vote, the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby agree to
table Rezoning # 11-06 of Abram's Chase, submitted by Greenway Engineering, to rezone 3.25 acres from RA
(Rural Areas) to RP (Residential Performance) District, for 90 days, in order to give the applicant time to address
the issues raised.
YES (TO TABLE): Unger, Watt, Manuel, Morris, Oates, Light, Wilmot, Kriz, Triplett, Kerr, Mohn
Commissioner Ours was absent from the meeting.)
Rezoning 910-06 of Albin Center, submitted by Artz & Associates, to rezone 2.07 acres from RA (Rural
Areas) District to B2 (Business General) District with proffers for commercial use. The property is
located on the east side of Bryarly Road (Rt. 789), approximately 800 feet south of the intersection with
Burnt Church Road (Rt. 678). The property is further identified by P.I.N. 42-A-249 in the Gainesboro
Magisterial District.
Commissioner Manuel said he would abstain from all discussion and voting on this rezoning, due
to a possible conflict of interest.
Senior Planner Susan K. Eddy reported that the applicant proposes to construct a two-story
building with 25,000 square feet of floor space and a building height of 60 feet on a vacant site. Ms. Eddy said
all of the properties surrounding this site are zoned RA (Rural Areas). She said the site is located outside of the
Sewer and Water Service Area (SWSA) and the Urban Development Area (UDA). Ms. Eddy said the site is
within the Albin Rural Community Center of the Comprehensive Policy Plan. Although the Comprehensive Plan
was not specific regarding policies for the Albin Rural Community Center, there were some general policies,
which she read for the Commission. One in particular said to promote "village commercial development at a
scale and nature that is appropriate for the rural community center." She said typically, expected uses would be
general store, bank, and restaurant in a rural community center; however, in this case, the proposal is for office
use, which is not necessarily designed to serve the local community. She added that the height and size of the
structure will be out of character and overwhelm its surroundings. She further added that the buildings in the
Albin Rural Community Center are approximately 25 feet in height with an average of 2,000 square -feet of floor
