Bailey Lane Purcellville, VA 20132 RE: Fieldstone Master Development Plan, MDP #03-04 Contributions TowardsTraffic Signal Property Identification Number (PIN) 55-A-181 Dear Ms. Coffey: When Master Development Plan #03-04 for Fieldstone was approved by the County this past June, a note on the plan stated that the developer would make a monetary contribution towards the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Routes 659 and 656. In reviewing both County and VDOT records, it appears that the contribution has not yet been paid for your, project. More specifically, the master development plan note states, "Arcadia Development Co, will contribute in the amount of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) to the traffic signal at the intersection of Route 659 and Route 656" (Sheet 1 of 4 on the MDP). The County requests that this $20,000 contribution be made payable to the "Frederick County Treasurer," and be submitted to the Frederick County Planning Department. These funds will be utilized in the costs of the traffic signal installation. Thank you for your attention to this matter Si c�erely, r Eric,R.

Greenway Engineering 151 Windy Hill Lane Winchester, Virginia 22602 RE: Preliminary Review Comments for Fieldstone Subdivision MDP (revision) Property Identification Number (PINS) 55-A-181 Dear Niki: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to provide you with review comments for the preliminary Master Development Plan (MDP) for. the Fieldstone Subdivision. Staff offers the review comments listed below for your consideration. Preliminary Review Comments: 1) Road Layout For Townhouses. Please show the proposed road layout for the proposed townhouse development (Section II). Staff suggests that you continue Highcliffe Drive to the eastern property line to allow for the possibility to extend the road in the future.. The townhouses should not have direct access to this road. 2) Riparian Buffer. Please show and label the required riparian buffer along the natural waterways located on the property. Land disturbance within these buffers is prohibited except for public utilities, public facilities or roads. 3) Landscaping Option. Please specify which of the three landscaping options will be utilized to satisfy the requirements of Section 165-36 of the Zoning Ordinance. This would either be street tree landscaping, ornamental landscaping, or tree preservation landscaping. 4) Recreational Units. Please specify the number of recreational units required on the plan. Furthermore, please show the location and provide information on the type of recreational facility that will be provided. If recreational facilities will be provided in the open space/floodplain, parking will need to be provided. 5) Proposed Trail. Please show the limits of the proposed trail more clearly. The trail should extend from the western portion of Valley Mill Road to the southern portion of Channing Drive. Please also specify the width and construction details of the proposed trail. 107 North Kent Street • Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 Page 2 Mr. Adhikusuma Preliminary Review Comments for Fieldstone Subdivision MDP (revision) July 30, 2003 6) Proposed Use. Please specify that the proposed use is single family detached urban lots and townhouse lots. The plan currently states that single family detached lots and single family attached lots are proposed. This is rather vague. 7) Average Lot Area. The Zoning Ordinance requires that the average lot area for this townhouse development be at least 2,200 square feet. Please state this on the MDP. 8) Lot Area Tabulation. The calculations for the amount of land within the total number of lots per phase does not appear to be correct. For example, if you multiply the minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet by the number of lots (63) you come up with a number greatly different than shown. The same is the case with Phase II of the development. Please clarify what this area includes. 9) Gross Density Tabulation. Please correct the gross density totals shown on the first page of the MDP. The, density for Phase I should be 1.4 dwelling units per acre, and for Phase II it should be 4.20 dwelling units per acre. 10) Typos. Please correct the spelling of "by" in the County Administrator approval box. Also, please correct the spelling of "boundary" in your townhouse setback table. 11) Agency Comments. Please ensure that the Planning Staff is provided with review comments from all of the following review agencies: the Frederick County Department of Public Works, Frederick County Department of Building Inspections, Frederick County Department of Parks & Recreation, Frederick County Fire Marshal, Airport Authority, Frederick County Sanitation Authority, Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), and the Frederick County Department of Geographic Information Systems. Please address the above comments and those provided to you from the review agencies. 'In order to continue the review of this Master Development Plan, you will need to submit the complete MDP application, which includes review agency comments and review fee, to this department. Once this information is received, staff will schedule the application for review by the Planning Commission and later the Board of Supervisors.

MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 2 June 3, 2004 REVIEW EVALUATIONS: Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The amended Master Development Plan for this property appears to have a measurable impact on Channing Drive, Routes 659 and 656, the VDOT facilities which would provide access to the property. Based on our conversation on September 22, 2003 the number of trips per day for Section II is being doubled from approximately 900 trips per day to 1800 trips per day. With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work. Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended. Sanitation Authority: Approved - amended County Inspections: No comment required at this time. Shall comment at the time of subdivision plan. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. A comprehensive review shall be performed at the time of subdivision plan approval. Geographic Information Systems: Braxton Place & Nassau Dr. previously approved & reserved for use in system. Rebecca Dr. & Channing Dr. are extensions to existing roads. Suffixes are appropriate & correct. Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation: The revised Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision appears to meet the county open space and recreational unit requirements. However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain area and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be ten feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of ten feet in width. The potential for the trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided. Winchester Regional Airport: The above referenced proposal has been reviewed and it appears that the proposed site plan will not have an impact on operations at the Winchester Regional Airport as the proposed site falls outside of the airport's Part 77 surface. No special requirements or conditions are requested on behalf of the Winchester Regional Airport Authority. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe operations of the Winchester Regional Airport. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 3 June 3, 2004 Frederick County Public Schools: No additional comments at this time. Planning & Zoning_ A) Master Development Plan Requirement A master development plan is required for most subdivisions and development of property in Frederick County. Before a master development plan can be approved, it must be reviewed by the Planning Commission, Board of Supervisors and all relevant review agencies. Approval may only be granted if the master development plan conforms to all requirements of the Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. The purpose of the master development plan is to promote orderly and planned development of property within Frederick County that suits the characteristics of the land, is harmonious with adjoining property and is in the best interest of the general public. B) Location The 94.362 acres of the subject property are located within the Red Bud Magisterial District and are south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Abrams Creek, past the Carlisle Heights Subdivision. Mill Race Estates and Valley Mill Estates are located north of the property across from Valley Mill Road (Route 659). The parcel of land will be accessible via Charming Drive, which will bisect the parcel in the center. The property is located north of the Lynnehaven and Giles (now Manning & Ross) portions of the Charming Drive Subdivision. C) Site History The original Zoning Map for Frederick County (U.S.G.S. Shephenson, VA Quadrangle) identified this land as being zoned A-2 (Agricultural General) District. On August 26,1987 the property was rezoned to the RP (Residential Performance) District under rezoning application #017-87 of Eastern Frederick Development Company. The original master development plan for this property, previously referred to as Fieldstone Heights, was approved on February 16, 1988 for 215 single-family dwellings. On February 26, 1996 the master development plan was revised to accommodate 169 single-family detached traditional dwellings (15, 000 square foot minimum without curb & gutter). Thexi on February 28, 2002, the master development plan was revised again; this time to accommodate 153 single- family detached urban lots (12, 000 square foot minimum with curb & gutter). D) Intended Use The parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two sections. Section 1 will be located west of Charming Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots. Section 2 will be located east of Charming Drive and consist of 225 townhouses. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 4 June 3, 2004 Planning RafComment. The applicantshould clarify theproposedphasingofthese sections and their relationship to the construction of Channing Drive. E) Site Suitability Land Use Compatibility: The site of the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision is located at the fringe between suburban residential and rural residential development. Single-family residential land uses prevail in the area, although a limited number of agricultural land uses are in the area as well. Historic Resources: The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey does not identify any potentially significant historic resources on the site of the proposed master development plan. Furthermore, according to the National Park Service's Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the subject site is not included in any battlefield study area and does not contain any core battlefield resources. Environment: The subject site contains 13.92 acres of steep slopes and 10.24 acres of floodplain. Both the areas of steep slope and floodplain are located in the front third of the parcel. A total of 3.48 acres (25%) of steep slopes and .3 acres of floodplain are proposed to be disturbed by this development. No disturbance of the riparian buffers around Abrams Creek shall be permitted except for the construction of roads (Channing Drive), public utilities, and public facilities. The General Soil Map of the Soil Survey of Frederick County Virginia indicates that the soils comprising the subject parcels fall under the Weikert-Berk soil association, which are common soil types found east of Interstate 81. It is noted that these soil types present some limitations to site development due to a seasonal high water table, depth to bedrock, and slope. The management of such characteristics must be demonstrated through the site development process. Transportation: The Comprehensive Policy Plan classifies Valley Mill Road (Route 659) as a major collector road. As part of the proposed development, anew major collector road shall be constructed from Valley Mill Road (Route 659) to the southern limits of the development, which will ultimately link Valley Mill Road (Route 659) with Senseny Road (Route 657). This new road is a component of the Eastern Road Plan, found on page 7-15 of the Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan. The Eastern Road Plan also calls for the eventual improvement of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Senseny Road (Route 657). Nassau Drive is a proposed public road which will be constructed off of Channing Drive for access to both the east and west portions of the property. All roads within Section 1 (single- family detached urban dwellings) will be public. Access to Section 2 (townhouses) shall be provided via a private road network connected to Nassau Drive. Per Section 144-24, of the MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 5 June 3, 2004 Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance, individual lots accessed by private streets shall be located within 500 feet of a public road. The applicant is seeking approval from the Planning Commission for a distance approximately 624 feet from a public road. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the ability to allow lots to be located as much as 800 feet from a state road in cases where enhanced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. Planning Staff Note: The Planning Commission approved the applicant's request for a lot access distance waiver during their meeting on June 2, 2004. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the authority to grant a waiver for the length of private roads. Therefore, the waiver has been approved and further action by the Board is not needed for this waiver. 11 Comprehensive Policy Plan: The 94.362-acre parcel is zoned RP (Residential Performance) and is within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the S WSA (Sewer and Water Service Area). The property is not located within the study area of any small area land use plan. It is located just outside of the Route 7 East Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1994. The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. Density: The overall,gross residential density proposed with this master development plan is 3.05 units per acre. This breaks down to a 1.40 gross density in Section 1 and a 4.56 gross density in Section 2. The maximum gross density for a parcel of this size is 5.5 dwelling units per acre. Recreational Facilities, Landscaping, Buffers, and Open Space 'The revised master development plan for the Fieldstone Subdivision shall contain at least 28.309 acres (30%) of open space; of which, slightly more than 50% shall be located outside of areas of steep slopes. For the proposed townhouses, one recreational unit shall also be provided for every 30 dwelling units. This calculates to a total of eight required recreational units. Landscaping shall be provided for all proposed parking lots and as required by Section 165-36, Landscaping, of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. A residential separation buffer is required between the proposed townhouses and the southern property line. In addition to this buffer, a road efficiency buffer is required between the proposed residential uses and Channing Drive. A six foot wide asphalt trail will be provided within the inactive portion of the road efficiency buffer along Channing Drive. The proposed trail is shown on the west side of Channing Drive, from the southern limits of the parcel, to the rear of the proposed townhouse development. Planning Staff Comment. Staffsuggests that theproposed trail be extended to Abrams Creek to allow for the possibility of connecting it with a nature trail which could emerge in the MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 6 June 3, 2004 future alongAbrams Creek. If amenable, the applicant could also provide assurances for an easement alongAbrams Creek to allow Frederick County to use the property for a public trail if determined appropriate in the future. PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION OF 04/07/04 MEETING: The owners of the 85-acre Valley Mill Farm, LLC at 1494 Valley Mill Road expressed concerns about traffic, the impacts of additional sediment in Abrams Creek, the loss of historic integrity of their property, the impact on their quality of life, and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge. Valley Mill Farm owners offered to dedicate a portion of the northern part of their property for access, rather than channeling traffic to the one -lane bridge. Four other citizens came forward to speak in opposition to the townhouse development; their concerns included traffic and safety issues, and overcrowded schools. The owner of the Goldie's LC tract to the east commented that he would like to see Nassau Drive stubbed at the eastern property line of the Fieldstone tract. Without this connection he was concerned that his property may be considered landlocked for future development. A VDOT representative verified that a revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and VDOT was satisfied because the applicant had agreed to install three turn lanes, in addition to entering into a signalization agreement where Channing Drive and Nassau intersect. Commission members questioned VDOT's .satisfaction with the TIA in light of the all of the trafficthat would be utilizing the one -lane bridge to get to Rt. 7. VDOT predicted the traffic would travel the route of least resistance, and go to Greenwood and down to Rt. 7, rather than attempting to traverse the bridge. Members of the Planning Staff commented that there has been considerable discussion regarding subsequent development to the east. They commented on the overall transportation benefit of staff s recommendation for a continuation of Nassau to the east, possibly creating a connection to Rt. 7 that would skip beyond the one -lane bridge. Members of the Planning Commission were concerned about the increase in density from previous master development plans for this parcel, especially in light of the transportation problems. They pointed out the possibility of potential acceptable transportation solutions, although none had been presented for the Commission's consideration. By a majority vote, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the master development plan, as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven In addition, a motion and second was made to recommend denial of the waiver request. This was also passed by a majority vote as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 7 June 3, 2004 NO: DeHaven (Please note: Commissioners Triplett, Kriz, Watt, and Straub were absent from the meeting.) PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION FOR THE 06/02/04 MEETING: Several representatives for the applicant were available to address various issues that had previously been raised. It was the representatives' opinion that the MDP was well within the required density. Specifically, it was noted that the revision involved only Section 2 by changing the 90 single-family units to 225 townhouses; the staff report indicated that 5.5 units per acre was the allowable density for this project. The applicant's representatives stated that with the change in their MDP, including the 63 single-family dwelling units in Section 1, they have 288 total units, which is 230 units less than what is permitted by the ordinance. Regarding the requested waiver, the applicant's representatives stated that the Planning Commission has granted such waivers in the past for similar subdivisions, if a satisfactory circulation pattern had been provided. The circulation pattern proposed was described; they noted that if the waiver was not approved, they would simply extend the state road portion to meet the 500-foot requirement. The applicant's representatives next addressed the issue of the overall transportation network and the issue of Nassau Drive not connecting to the east. The applicant's representatives noted that the Channing Drive construction, which � is a key component of the Eastern Road Plan, had been accomplished through the Fieldstone subdivision from Valley Mill Road to the northern property limits. They believed the developers have done their part to implement the Comprehensive Policy Plan by constructing their portion of Channing Drive and by contributing $20,000 towards the traffic signal at the Greenwood Road/ Valley Mill Road intersection, and by entering into a signalization agreement with VDOT at Channing Drive. It was noted by the representatives that the Comprehensive Plan does not call for nor promote an east -west collector road through the Fieldstone community. In addition, it was their opinion that the subdivision ordinance did not mandate a road connection to the adjoining Adams property. In addition, there seemed to be a discrepancy from the applicant's point of view as to why the Board of Supervisors was sending the MDP back to the Planning Commission. The applicant's representatives believed the Board of Supervisors' motion was, "...to direct the Planning Commission to resolve the density issues -and bring back the MDP to the Board's first meeting in June." The applicant believed this was not accurately represented in the staff s report. Members of the Planning Commission were of the opinion that VDOT had requested a revised traffic impact analysis because of the number of trips per day had doubled with the revision of the townhouses in Section 2. However, it was determined that this revised traffic analysis was not accomplished. The applicant's representatives noted that when the developer came forward with their contribution for the traffic signal, there was no further discussion regarding the need for additional revisions to the traffic study. Additionally, members of the Commission pointed out that they have consistently recommended MDP 903-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 8 June 3, 2004 inter -parcel connectors in the past. Four citizens who live in the vicinity of this development spoke at the public meeting. The citizens did not believe the developers were doing their part in the way of contributing money towards road improvements; they voiced their opinions that developers coming into Frederick County should be required to do a greater amount of improvements before they are granted approval for their projects. They anticipated that the taxpayers will be left to maintain and manage public facilities after the developers have gone. One citizen suggested that an outside traffic engineer be hired to review and comment on the transportation issues. It was also stated that Fieldstone was developed without a storm water management system; there were complaints that the water runoff from the clear cut slopes for the Channing Drive construction flowed directly into Abrams Creek. The executor of the adjacent Goldies, LLC tract stated that his property is currently under contract for development. Impacts on schools, roads, and the environment were also mentioned. The Planning Commission recalled that they had recommended denial of the waiver at their April 19, 2004 meeting; therefore, the MDP was not in compliance with the subdivision ordinance. Commissioners suggested that the MDP should not be approved without re -addressing the waiver request. The legal counsel for the Commission stated that both issues could be considered together; the legal counsel also recommended that if all ordinance requirements were met, the MDP should be approved. The Planning Commission expressed their concern about the cumulative affect of the traffic impacts from previously -approved developments in this area. Commission members stated that it was difficult to predict the cumulative traffic impact when the densities of proposed development continue to change. By a majority vote, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the waiver request, allowing residences on private drives up to 624 feet from a public road and also recommended approval of MDP #03-04 Fieldstone subdivision. The vote was as follows: YES (TO APPROVE: Watt, Unger, Morris, Light, Thomas, Kriz, Fisher NO: Straub, Gochenour, DeHaven, Rosenberry (Commissioners Triplett and Ours were absent from the meeting.) STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 06/09/04 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING: This Master Development Plan is consistent with the technical requirements of the Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances, as they relate to Master Development Plans. However, transportation concerns with the project still exist. In particular, Nassau Drive has not been stubbed at the eastern property line. Planning Staff, Members of the Planning Commission, as well as VDOT, have MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 9 June 3, 2004 recommended that this road be extended to the eastern property line; which would allow for a possible future improved transportation network for this area of Frederick County. All of the issues identified by the Board of Supervisors should be appropriately addressed by the applicant.- The Planning Commission recommended that administrative approval be authorized during their meeting on June 2, 2004. The Planning Commission also approved the requested lot access waiver. No action is necessary by the Board regarding this waiver. The applicant is seeking authorization of the preliminary master development plan by the Board of S pervisors. The Board's authorization will grant staff with administrative approval author!& for the final master development plan.

However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain areas and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be 10 feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of 10 feet in width. The potential for the trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided.

Mitchell, J ..; Es i Counsel for Resno ents 2 YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven (Commissioners Straub, Watt, Kriz, and Triplett were absent.) In addition, a motion was made by Commissioner Light and seconded by Commissioner Fisher to recommend denial of the waiver request. This was also passed by a.majority vote as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven (Commissioners Straub, Watt, Kriz, and Triplett were absent.) Subdivision #05-04 of Daniel McKee/ Echo Village for two single-family detached traditional lots, zoned RP, containing a minimum of 15,000 square feet each. This property is located on Fay Street (Rt. 814), approximately 350' west of Rt. 11, in the Shawnee Magisterial District. Action - Recommended Approval Patrick T. Davenport, Zoning and Subdivision Administrator, stated that the two proposed lots will be accessed by a single private lane, which will be maintained by the two property owners. Administrator Davenport commented that there is some urgency behind this request because of a timing issue relating to funding available by VDOT that could be used to help remedy a serious drainage issue for the properties along King Street. Administrator Davenport next described the waiver requests being sought in conjunction with this subdivision request, as follows: 1) a request for a waiver of the master development plan has been granted by the Planning Director; 2) a request for a waiver of the state road frontage requirement for both lots; 3) a request for a waiver of the minimum lot width at front setback for Lot #1 (an 80 foot lot width at the front setback is required and Lot 41 as shown is approximately 70 feet). Administrator Davenport explained that it would be appropriate to forward a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors which would include these requested waivers and the ability for staff to administratively approve the plats when all of the requirements have been met. Regarding the timing of the consideration of this request, Planning Director Eric R. Lawrence . stated that VDOT has some project money available; however, engineered plans must be submitted by the end of April for VDOT to fund the project. Director Lawrence said that the developer of these two lots has contracted Triad Engineering to do all of the storm water management designing that VDOT requires, but obviously, the developer was not going to proceed unless they could construct two houses on the property. Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of April 7, 2004 Page 1276 -7- VDOT representative, Mr. Lloyd Ingram, confirmed that considering the reconfiguration of the new traffic mix and increased vehicle trips per day, in addition to the existing traffic, VDOT was comfortable there would be sufficient stacking and turn lanes to accommodate the numbers. In addition, Mr. Ingram mentioned the two entrances, one consisting of a continuous right and the other a full intersection, along with the road layout, all of which, he believed, would contribute to the proper flow of traffic. Chairman DeHaven called for public comments, however, no one came forward to speak. Upon motion made by Commissioner Light and seconded by Commissioner Kriz, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby unanimously recommended approval of Rezoning #06-04 of Rutherford, LLC, submitted by Greenway Engineering, Inc., to rezone 13.4 acres from the RA (Rural Areas); B2 (Business General); B3 (Industrial Transition); and M1 (Light Industrial) Districts to the B2 (Business General) and B3 (Industrial Transition) Districts. (Please note: Commissioners Triplett and Ours were absent from the meeting.) PUBLIC MEETING Master Development Plan #03-04 for Fieldstone Subdivision, submitted by Greenway Engineering, for up to 63 single-family detached urban homes and 225 townhouses. The property is located south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659), to the east of Carlisle Heights Subdivision, and is identified with Property Identification Number 55-A-181, in the Red Bud District. Action - Recommended Approval of the Master Development Plan and Recommended Approval of the Lot Access Waiver Planner Jeremy F. Camp stated that the preliminary master development plan (MDP) revision for Fieldstone Subdivision was recommended for denial by the Planning Commission at their meeting of April 7, 2004, primarily based on the MDP's insufficient transportation planning. The Planning Commission also denied a waiver request during this meeting which would have allowed individual lots to be in excess of 500 feet from a state -maintained road. Planner Camp stated that on May 12, 2004, the Board of Supervisors voted to send the Fieldstone Subdivision MDP revision back to the Planning Commission; the Board made this decision in order to give the applicant another opportunity to address the density and transportation concerns the Planning Commission had raised during their review on April 7, 2004. Planner Camp continued, stating that the applicant has chosen not to extend the proposed state road to the property line to allow for possible future development; nor has the applicant made any other changes to the plan since the Planning Commission recommended denial on April 7, 2004. He explained that the failure to extend Nassau Drive to the eastern property line may impact the development potential of the properties to the east, and may not provide for an improved future transportation network to serve this area of Frederick County as well. Planner Camp said the original Fieldstone MDP was approved in 1988, prior to the adoption of the Eastern Road Plan; this is why previous revisions to the Fieldstone Subdivision did not require Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of June 2, 2004 Page 1310 -7- Upon motion made by Commissioner Ours and seconded by Commissioner Morris, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby recommend approval of MDP 002-04 of Crossroads Commercial Center, submitted by Greenway Engineering, for commercial and office uses located at the northeastern corner of the intersections of Fairfax Pike (Rt. 277) and Double Church Road (Rt. 641), by the following majority vote: YES (To Approve): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger NO: Gochenour ABSTAIN• DeHaven (Commissioners Triplett, Kriz, Watt, and Straub were absent from the meeting.) Chairman DeHaven resumed the conduction of the meeting at this point. Master Development Plan 403-04 for Fieldstone Subdivision, submitted by Greenway Engineering, for up to 63 single-family detached urban homes and 225 townhouses. The property is located south of Valley Mill Road (Rt. 659), to the east of Carlisle Heights Subdivision, and is identified with P.I.N. 55-A- 181, in the Red Bud District. Action - Recommended Denial Planner Jeremy F. Camp stated that this parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two phases: Phase 1 will be located west of Channing Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots and Phase 2 will be located east of Channing Drive and consist of 225 townhouses. Planner Camp said the proposed revised plan is to modify only Phase 2 from 90 single-family detached urban units to 225 townhouses, changing the overall gross residential density from 1.6 units per acre to three units per acre. He said that, in addition, the applicant is requesting that the Planning Commission approve a waiver to allow the proposed private street system to exceed 500 feet. Mr. Lloyd Ingram of VDOT verified that a revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and VDOT was satisfied because the applicant had agreed to install three turn lanes, in addition to entering into a signalization agreement where Charming Drive and Nassau intersect. Commission members questioned VDOT's satisfaction with the TIA in light of all of the traffic that would be utilizing the one -lane bridge to get to Rt. 7. Mr. Ingram said that VDOT has predicted the traffic would travel the route of least resistance, proceeding to Greenwood and down to Rt. 7, rather than attempting to traverse the bridge. Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of April 7, 2004 Page 1274 WIM Mr. Evan A. Wyatt of Greenway Engineering, the design engineers for this project, gave an overview of the project for the Commission and explained the details of the waiver being requested. Chairman DeHaven called for public comments and the following persons came forward to speak: Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Stafford, the owners of the 85-acre Valley Mill Farm, LLC at 1494 Valley Mill Road expressed concerns about traffic, the impacts of additional sediment in Abrams Creek, the loss of historic integrity of their property, the impact on their quality of life, and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge to handle -additional traffic. Mr. and Mrs. Stafford offered to dedicate a portion of the northern part of their property for access, rather than channeling traffic to the one -lane bridge. Mr. Walter Johnson, a resident of Mill Race Estates, was opposed to the requested change from single family to townhouses and the increase in density. He cited the traffic congestion on Valley Mill Road and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge to handle the traffic. He did not think this area could handle the amount of traffic that would be generated by the increase in development. Mr. William Schuller was opposed to the townhouses because of the additional traffic it would generate. Mr. Schuller was displeased with the road work that has been done so far. Mr. Richard Racey, adjacent property owner, was opposed to the townhouses because of existing overcrowded schools, traffic congestion, and safety issues related to traffic on Valley Mill and Greenwood Road. Mr. Gary Adams, the executor and listing agent for the Goldie's LC tract to the east, commented that he would like to see Nassau Drive stubbed at the eastern property line of the Fieldstone tract. Without this connection, he was concerned that his property may be considered landlocked for future development. Members of the Planning Staff commented that there has been considerable discussion regarding subsequent development to the east. They commented on the overall transportation benefit of staffs recommendation for a continuation of Nassau to the east, possibly creating a connection to Rt. 7 that would skip beyond the one -lane bridge. Members of the Planning Commission were concerned about the increase in density from previous master development plans for this parcel, especially in light of the transportation problems. They pointed out the possibility of potential acceptable transportation solutions, although none had been presented for the Commission's consideration. Upon motion made by Commissioner Light and seconded by Commissioner Rosenberry, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the master development plan by the following majority vote: Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of April 7, 2004 Page 1275 -8- the development to extend the road to the eastern property line. He said that both the 1996 and 2002 revisions proposed a reduction in the total number of residential units. Planner Camp pointed out that the proposed revision under consideration this evening is an increase of 135 units, consisting of a change from single-family detached dwellings to townhouses, and the revision has changed the internal public road network to a private road network. He said the staff believes the changes will generate additional impacts to Frederick County residents and because of these impacts, the staff looks to the developer to provide basic transportation improvements. Several representatives for the applicant, Arcadia Building Company, were available to address the various issues that had previously been raised at the Commission's April 7, 2004 meeting. Those representatives included Mr. Evan A. Wyatt with Greenway Engineering, the design engineers for the project; Mr. John Callow, Vice President with Patton, Harris, & Rust, the transportation engineers; and Mr. Doug Flemming, legal counsel. It was the representatives' opinion that the MDP was well within the required density. Specifically, it was noted that the revision involved only Section 2 by changing the 90 single-family units to 225 townhouses; the staff report indicated that 5.5 units per acre was the allowable density for this project. The applicant's representatives stated that with the change in their MDP, including the 63 single-family dwelling units in Section 1, they have 288 total units, which is 230 units less than what is permitted by the ordinance. Regarding the requested waiver, the applicant's representatives stated that the Planning Commission has granted such waivers in the past for similar subdivisions, if a satisfactory circulation pattern had been provided. The circulation pattern proposed was described; they noted that if the waiver was not approved, they would simply extend the state road portion to meet the 500-foot requirement. The applicant's representatives next addressed the issue ofthe overall transportation network and the issue of Nassau Drive not connecting to the east. The applicant's representatives noted that the Charming Drive construction, which is a key component of the Eastern Road Plan, had been accomplished through the Fieldstone subdivision from Valley Mill Road to the northern property limits. They believed the developers have done their part to implement the Comprehensive Policy Plan by constructing their portion of Channing Drive and by contributing $20,000 towards the traffic signal at the Greenwood Road/. Valley Mill Road intersection, and by entering into a signalization agreement with VDOT at Charming Drive. It was noted by the representatives that the Comprehensive Plan does not call for nor promote an east -west collector road through the Fieldstone community. In addition, it was their opinion that the subdivision ordinance did not mandate a road connection to the adjoining Adams property. In addition, there seemed to be a discrepancy from the applicant's point of view as to why the Board of Supervisors was sending the MDP back to the Planning Commission. The applicant's representatives believed the Board of Supervisors' motion was, "...to direct the Planning Commission to resolve the density issues and bring back the MDP to the Board's first meeting in June." The applicant believed this was not accurately represented in the staffs report. Members of the Planning Commission were of the opinion that VDOT had requested a revised traffic impact analysis because of the number of trips per day had doubled with the revision of the townhouses in Section 2. However, after further discussion, it was determined that a revised traffic analysis was not conducted; the applicant's representatives noted that when the developer came forward with their contribution for the traffic signal, there was no further discussion from VDOT regarding the need for additional revisions Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of June 2, 2004 Page 1311 to the traffic study. Other transportation issues raised involved the Commission's desire for inter -parcel connectors and their dislike of funneling traffic from a four -lane road down to a one -lane bridge. Some of the Commissioners anticipated major future transportation problems. Chairman DeHaven called for citizen comments and four citizens who live in the vicinity of this development spoke, as follows: Mr. Bob Carter, a resident on Valley Mill Road, came forward to speak about his concerns regarding traffic on Valley Mill Road. Mr. Carter did not believe the developers were doing their part in the way of contributing money towards road improvements. Mr. Tim Stafford,,area resident, offered to employ, at his own expense, an outside traffic engineer to review and comment on the transportation issues in order to get another point of view. Mr. Stafford said that he did not understand how Fieldstone could be developed without a storm water management system. He expressed concern that the water runoff from the clear-cut slopes along the Charming Drive construction route flowed directly into Abrams Creek. He said that each time it rains, he loses another 50-year old tree on his farm because of impervious areas that are not being managed. Mr. Stafford believed that developers coming into Frederick County from other areas should be required to do a greater amount of improvements before they are granted approval for their projects. He believed that the Frederick County taxpayers will be left to maintain and manage public facilities long after the developers have gone. Mr. Gary Adams, the executor of the adjacent Goldies, LLC tract, wanted to go on record to state that this property is currently under contract for development with a major contractor out of the Washington, D.C. area. Mr. Adams said that at one time, when Mr. George Glaize owned the property before Arcadia bought it, he had a master development plan that showed two connector roads going into Goldies, LLC. Mr. Richard Racey, resident across from Charming Drive, agreed with all of the other comments that were made. Additionally, Mr. Racey raised concerns about the impacts to schools, roads, and the environment. He also questioned the need for these townhouses. Because the waiver associated with this request had been recommended for denial at the Commission's April 7, 2004 meeting, members of the Commission were of the opinion that the master plan was not in compliance with the subdivision ordinance. Commissioners believed the master plan should not be approved without re -addressing the waiver request. Mr. Lawrence Ambrogi, legal counsel for the Commission, believed that both issues could be considered together. Mr. Ambrogi also advised that the master plan should be approved, if all ordinance requirements were met. The Planning Commission expressed their concern about the cumulative affect of the traffic impacts from previously -approved developments in this area. Commission members stated that it was difficult to predict the cumulative traffic impact when the densities of proposed developments continue to change. Upon motion made by Commissioner Thomas and seconded by Commissioner Kriz, Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of June 2, 2004 Page 1312 -10- BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby recommend approval of a lot access distance waiver, allowing residences on private drives up to 624 feet from a public road, and also recommends approval of MDP #03-04 Fieldstone subdivision. The majority vote was as follows: YES (TO APPROVE): Watt, Unger, Morris, Light, Thomas, Kriz, Fisher NO: Straub, Gochenour, DeHaven, Rosenberry (Commissioners Triplett and Ours were absent from the meeting.) Master Development Plan #06-04 of Winchester Medical Center II, submitted by G. W. Clifford & Associates, for retail, commercial and medical support use on approximately 102 acres, zoned B2 (Business General) and MS (Medical Support) Districts. The property is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Route 37 and Route 50 West, and is identified with Property Identification Number 53-A-68, in the Gainesboro Magisterial District. Action - Recommended Approval Planner Jeremy F. Camp reported the background information for the Commission. He stated that the parcel is entirely within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the SWSA (Sewer and Water Service Area); there are no known environmental restraints; the proposed internal private road network will be designed to meet state road standards as required by the zoning ordinance; and, a waiver by the Board of Supervisors will be required to allow individual lots to access private roads. He noted that Botanical Boulevard, the proffered major collector road, is the only proposed public road into the development. Planner Camp next read the list of the applicant's proffers, most of which focused on the mitigation of traffic. Members of the Commission noted that VDOT had raised a number of issues and they questioned whether those issues had been resolved. Planner Camp replied that VDOT was comfortable with the plan and he believed the issues identified would not prohibit the plan from proceeding forward. In addition, the Commission raised questions concerning the timing of development, the possibility of a western access to the Route 37 Interchange, and the construction of Echo Lane. Mr. Charles W. Maddox, Jr. with G. W. Clifford & Associates, a division of Patton, Harris, and Rust, the design engineers for this project, was present to represent the applicant. Mr. Maddox gave a presentation of the master plan to the Commission. He assured the Commission that the road plan will be in place as part of the first use established within the B2 portion of development. It was determined that the Planning Commission did not need to provide a formal recommendation on the requested lot access waiver because the granting of the waiver required only Board of Supervisors' action.

Tyler - Aye PLANNING COMMISSION BUSINESS: AMENDMENT OF MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN PROCESS FOR CHANNING DRIVF, DEVELOPMENTS - (RESOLUTION #054-04)) - APPROVED Director Lawrence appeared before the Board on behalf of this item. He explained that this request came about because staff was approached by a representative from an engineering firm. He advised that the County's position has in the past been that the master development plans for the three developments could not be changed unless all three dcvelopers sign an agreement. The County has received a request that the County consider revisions to individual master development plans for this development, if the right-of-way for Channing Drive is dedicated to the County and a monetary guarantee is put into place. He went on to say that staff feels this proposed policy change would not impact the proffers and the projects would continue to be intertwined. Director Lawrence stated that staff would bring the proposed amendments to the Master Development Plans to the Board before they are adopted and could still pressure the developers to guarantee that the road would be built. He concluded by saying that staff thinks this is a fair proposal after reviewing the master plans and supporting documents and recommends approval. Mr. Mark Smith, Greenway Engineering, advised that the construction of Channing Drive was ahead of schedule. He stated that it was about 75% complete on the Fieldstone property and the Lyn Haven and Sovereign Village sections were working well together. Drive. Chairman Shickle asked at what point the developer would have to build all of Channing Mr. Smith responded that the proffers state that the road must be built when development is adjacent to it. Chairman Shickle asked when the road would be built. Mr. Smith responded that the proffers would rule; however, under the proposal submitted to staff the Board would see the submission of a revised master plan and at that time, the Board could say when it would be built. Assistant Administrator Tierney responded that it would be a function of the build out of the Minute Book Number 29 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 03/24/04 496 A Regular Meeting of the Frederick County Board of Supervisors was held on Wednesday, May 12, 2004, at 7:15 P.M., in the Board of Supervisors' Meeting Room, County Administration Building, 107 North Kent Street, Winchester, Virginia.

Harrington Smith, Jr. - Aye Lynda J. Tyler - Aye CITIZEN COMMENTS Tim Stafford, Red Bud District and owner of Valley Mill Farm, addressed Fieldstone Subdivision. He stated that his major concern was traffic as the existing bridge was not to be improved for six or seven years. He concluded by saying that the development should be done "smartly". Tootse R Stafford, Red Bud District and owner of Valley Mill Farm, advised that her husband had addressed their concerns and she had nothing additional to add. She discussed the historical significance of the existing masonry barn on the property, as it might be the only one of its kind in Frederick County. Gary Adams, representing Goldies LC, appeared before the Board to address the Fieldstone Subdivision Master Development Plan. He expressed his concerns about the proposed connector road. Richard Racey, Red Bud District, advised the Board that he lived across from the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision. He stated that the project would generate three times the traffic of the original plan. He was also concerned about school overcrowding problems. William Schuller, Red Bud District, appeared before the Board to address the Fieldstone Subdivision Master Development Plan. He advised the Board that he was a resident of Valley Mill Road and he felt there was not a need for townhouses in this project. He stated that single-family homes would work. Vincent Lord, Stonewall District, appeared before the Board to address the Hiatt Run Master Development Plan. He advised that he had not seen the final plan, but he appeared before the Planning Commission when it was denied the first time. He informed the Board that there were drainage problems on the northeast portion of the property. He concluded by asking how he could be assured that this development would be an age restricted community. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS COMMENTS There were no Board of Supervisors comments. Minute Book Number 29 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 05/12/04 5061 present to answer any questions. Supervisor Ewing asked what affect denial of this application would have on the construction of Channing Drive. Planner II Camp advised that Channing Drive would be constructed regardless of approval or denial. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering, appeared before the Board on behalf of the applicant. He advised that the road design for Channing Drive does not account for it going through the Bean property. He concluded by saying that if the rezoning is approved the property would become part of the Lynnhaven Master Development Plan. Chairman Shickle convened the public hearing. There were no public comments. Chairman Shickle closed the public hearing. Supervisor Forrester advised that she had made a promise to her constituents that if the schools were overcrowded then she would not approve any development that would compound the situation. She concluded by saying that she could not in good conscience make a motion, even though this was a good use for that property. Upon a motion by Vice -Chairman Van Osten, seconded by Supervisor Dove, the Board approved Rezoning Application #04-04. The above motion was approved by the following recorded vote: Richard C. Shickle - Aye Barbara E. Van Osten - Aye Gary W. Dove - Aye Bill M. Ewing - Aye Gina A. Forrester - Nay W. Harrington Smith, Jr. - Aye Lynda J. Tyler - Aye OTHER PLANNING ITEMS MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN #03-04 OF FIELDSTONE SUBDIVISION - REMOVED FROM AGENDA This item was removed from the agenda during the adoption of the agenda at the beginning of the meeting. MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN #04-04 OF HIATT RUN ADULT COMMUNITY - APPROVED Planner II Camp appeared before the Board on behalf of this item. He advised that this was Minute Book Number 29 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting or 05/12/04 Board Meeting Minutes of 06/09/04 MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN #03-04 OF FIELDSTONE SUBDIVISION - APPROVED Planner II Jeremy Camp appeared before the Board on behalf of this application. He advised that the original master development plan was approved in 1988 and has been revised twice. The proposed plan calls for an increase in density from 150 units to 288 (63 single-family detached and 225 townhouses) units. The property is located in the Red Bud Magisterial District and is zoned RP (Residential Performance). The future Channing Drive will bisect the property and a 6 foot asphalt trail is also proposed. Planner II Camp advised that the Planning Commission had expressed interest in extending Nassau Drive as a possible connector road. The applicant was not amenable to this request. The Planning Commission did recommend approval of the master development plan and lot access waiver. He concluded by saying that the applicant was seeking authorization of the preliminary master development plan, which would grant staff with administrative approval authority for the final master development plan. He advised that the applicant was represented by Greenway Engineering who was present to answer any questions. Chairman Shickle asked if the ordinance required a six foot trail, similar to the one being provided by the applicant. Planner II Camp responded that there was not an ordinance requirement. Chairman Shickle asked if the County could get a ten foot trail, since the Parks and Recreation bike trails were ten feet. Planner II Camp responded that staff was working on developing a comprehensive bike trail plan; however, there is currently no ordinance requirement to provide a trail. Supervisor Forrester asked if the density of a project changes, could the Board reject the plan if they felt the traffic was too much for the existing road infrastructure. Director Lawrence responded that the increased density was a by right use; therefore, no new traffic impact analysis study would be required. Lloyd Engram, VDOT Engineer, advised that VDOT looks at how much the density would be increasing and then looks at the percentage increase in traffic. Supervisor Forrester stated that she had read in the staff report that it was anticipated the level of traffic would double under this new proposal. Engineer Engram advised that a light would be constructed on Valley Mill Road Vice -Chairman Van Osten asked Engineer Engram if he was satisfied that this light would deal with the potential traffic impact. Engineer Engram responded yes. Jerry Copp, VDOT Resident Engineer, advised that the light on Valley Mill Road was a go, but he could not say for sure when it would constructed. He stated that the earliest it would be installed would be sometime in 2005. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering, appeared before the Board on behalf of Arcadia Building Company. He advised that Arcadia came before the Board previously with this issue and the Board removed this item from the agenda and referred it back to the Planning Commission to deal with the issue of density. The Planning Commission recommended approval of this plan and approved the necessary waiver request also. Mr. Wyatt explained that the vision for this project is upscale townhouses in a closed community concept, which would be marketed to commuters. He advised that Arcadia desires to be the first in the area with this type of project. Mr. Wyatt went on to say that when Arcadia purchased this property, there was a commitment for the completion of Charming Drive prior to the permitting of the first dwelling unit for this project. Arcadia has completed their portion and has agreed to provide $20,000 as part of the signalization improvement as well. Mr. Wyatt concluded by saying that, according to staff, the plan complies with the comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance, and subdivision ordinance requirements. Mr. Wyatt then introduced Doug Fleming, legal counsel for Arcadia. Mr. Fleming advised that he has been serving as legal counsel to Arcadia for a number of years. He stated that he appreciated the Planning Commission's vote to recommend approval of this master development plan and approval of the necessary waiver. Mr. Fleming advised that the plan does comply with the requirements of the zoning ordinance and subdivision ordinance. He then stated that he felt it was important to make some brief observations regarding the transportation concerns, such as the extension of Nassau Drive. He advised that Arcadia had implemented its portion of the eastern road plan and noted that the Comprehensive Plan does not require or include an east/west connector in this area. Mr. Fleming stated that the properties to the east of this project have not been rezoned and are undeveloped; therefore, it would be profoundly unfair to Arcadia to require them to create a road not included in the county's documents. He went on to say that no adjoining landowner has ever called or requested to meet with Arcadia regarding a Nassau Drive connection, but they would not refuse discussions on this issue. He concluded by saying that the County Attorney believes that if the plan meets the ordinance requirements then the Board should approve the master development plan. He then thanked the Board for the opportunity to speak. Mr. Wyatt stated that Arcadia's biggest concern about extending Nassau Drive is that it could serve as a substitute route to Route 7, which would disrupt the project and property. He advised that Arcadia had invested money in constructing Channing Drive and now the County was talking about additional road costs. He concluded by saying that this concept would not work through Fieldstone. Mr. Fleming advised that an extension of Nassau Drive would have an adverse impact on the project and would exponentially benefit the property owners to the east. He concluded by saying that Arcadia would not rule out extending Nassau Drive, but they have not been contacted by any of the adjacent property owners. Vice -Chairman Van Osten asked for a description of Nassau Drive. Mr. Wyatt explained that it was a 50 foot right -of --way connected to Channing Drive, which then enters the property and stubs out. Vice -Chairman Van Osten advised that she understood the applicants objections to a major collector road, but asked why they would object to a smaller road. Deputy Director Mohn advised that staff was looking for a path to Route 7 and this was not an option with Arcadia. He went on to say that staff was looking for compliance with the subdivision ordinance. Mr. Fleming advised that the subdivision ordinance does not require this extension. He advised that there was no plan nor were there existing or platted streets on the Adams' parcel. He concluded by saying that the applicant has complied with the ordinance. Deputy Director Mohn advised that there was probably an error in the staff report, but staff did note that the subdivision ordinance does look for connections. He went on to say that this was not a new issue. Vice -Chairman Van Osten reviewed the ordinance section in question and stated that it seemed like a question of semantics. Supervisor Tyler advised that she would like to explore Mr. Stafford's suggestion of prohibiting right turns on to Valley Mill Road and left turns on to Charming Drive. Engineer Copp stated that there was a way to do that, but he was not in a position to determine that at the present. Supervisor Dove asked if signage could be installed on Valley Mill Road. Engineer Copp responded that VDOT must look at other impacts caused by this option. He advised that there was a lot to consider. Supervisor Dove asked if this was a decision the Board could make. Engineer Copp responded that the Board could make a recommendation, but VDOT would make the final decision. He advised that he would work with the Board and staff to address these issues. Supervisor Forrester advised she was not happy about this, but moved to grant staff administrative approval authority contingent upon the applicant providing the necessary extension of the local street known as an inter -parcel connector, Nassau Drive, to the eastern property line per 144-17 B (2) of the County Code; the applicant to address all relevant state and local ordinances; and satisfactorily address all review agency, Planning Commission, and Board of Supervisors comments applicable to this project. The motion was seconded by Vice -Chairman Van Osten. Supervisor Forrester advised that things were getting very complicated in this area and she asked the Board to help her with the transportation issues. Chairman Shickle stated that he had apprehensions about suggesting barricades be put up on these roads. He advised that he would like to keep his options open. Supervisor Forrester stated that she did not believe the road would be used as a collector road and that the extension of Nassau Drive makes for a far better transportation pattern. Director Lawrence advised that staff was looking at a public road. Chairman Shickle stated that he wanted to ensure that the inter -parcel connector would not be a major transportation route. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the County has a history of requiring inter - parcel connectors and staff is suggesting that an inter -parcel connector is appropriate in this instance. He advised that it would serve as an alternative means to get in or out of the subdivision. He concluded by saying that the County is simply talking about neighborhood access. Supervisor Forrester asked if the Board could put a notation on the master development plan regarding the inter -parcel connector. Supervisor Tyler advised that she was getting uncomfortable with putting conditions on a plan because of an adjoining property. Director Lawrence stated that the July 2003 comments stated there needs to be an inter - parcel connector. Chairman Shickle asked about the difference between the previous master development plan and this one. Director Lawrence advised that this was a major change because the applicant was changing the product from single-family dwellings to townhouses. Supervisor Ewing stated that the existing road conditions out there make it difficult to support this application; however, they have met every requirement and "I see noway to vote no." There being no further discussion, Master Development Plan #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision was approved by the following recorded vote: Richard C. Shickle - Nay Barbara E. Van Osten - Aye Gary W.

He advised that he was executor of Goldie's LC estate, which adjoins the Fieldstone and Fu-Shep Developments. He believed that the inter -parcel connector, which was required by the Board was needed. He then presented a letter to the Board dated February 2004 in which Arcadia expressed their interest in purchasing this parcel. !

Phases nine & 10. He asked the Board to vote no on this proposed plan because, if approved, it would have a direct effect on the neighborhood residents. Ile concluded by asking Toll Brothers to work with the Board of Supervisors on this project. Tim Stafford, Red Bud District, began by expressing his condolences to the Board on the loss of Supervisor W. Harrington Smith, Jr. He then address the Fieldstone Subdivision Master Development Plan and more particularly the Nassau Drive issue. He stated that it was imperative that the Board "stick to their guns" and make Nassau Drive a connector road. PLANNING COMMISSION BUSINESS PUBLIC HEARING PUBLIC HEARING - REZONING #07-04 OF WILLIAM H. LAWRENCE I11 SUBMITTED BY GILBERT W. CLIFFORD & ASSOCIATES INC TO REZONE 1.965 ACRES FROM RA (RURAL AREAS) DISTRICT TO B2 (BUSINESS GENERAL) DISTRICT. THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF MARTINSBURG PIKE (ROUTE, 11 N), SOUTH AND ADJACENT TO CLEARBROOK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, AND BOUNDED TO THE EAST AND SOUTH BY CLEAR -BROOK PARK, AND IS IDENTIFIED WITH PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 33-A-162 IN THE STONEWALL MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT. - APPROVED Planner I and Acting Zoning & Subdivision Administrator Mark Cheran appeared before the Board on behalf of this application. He advised that this was a proposal to rezone 1.965 acres from RA (Rural Areas) District to B2 (Business General) District. This property is located in the Stonewall Magisterial District and the Sewer and Water Service Area. The proposal also conforms to the Northeast Land Use Plan. Planner I Cheran stated that the applicant has proffered landscaping to offset compatibility concerns relative to this project and adjacent properties. The applicant has also proffered to prohibit several B2 uses, including service station, auto dealership, and truck stop. Planner I Cheran advised that the traffic impact analysis projects the level of service at build out to be level C or better. The applicant has also proffered a monetary contribution of $2,000.00 each to Frederick County Fire & Rescue and Sheriff's Departments. He concluded by saying that the final buffer plan will be developed by staff and the applicant. Supervisor Tyler stated that she was concerned about the buffer on the property boundary with the park. She stated that the Parks & Recreation Committee would like to have an evergreen buffer. Minute Book Number 30 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 08/11/04 Board Meeting Minutes of 08/11/04 MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN - FIELDSTONE SUBDIVISION - APPROVED Assistant Administrator Tierney presented this item to the Board. He advised that this master development plan had come before the Board on June 9, 2004 and was a proposal to construct 63 single-family dwellings and 225 townhouse units, located in the Red Bud District. The Board approved this master development plan with the stipulation that the applicant provide the necessary extension of the local street known as an inter -parcel connector, Nassau Drive, to the eastern property line per 144-17 B (2) of the County Code. The applicant objected to that stipulation. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that Attorney Bob Mitchell reviewed the motion and zoning ordinance section cited and determined that the section cited did not apply to this particular application. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that there were provisions in the County's subdivision and zoning ordinance to require the applicant to provide this access. He concluded by saying that the matter is back before the Board for clarification action. Supervisor Forrester asked if the County was requiring a connection to the subdivision. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the County was trying to ensure that the subdivision has multiple means of access. Chairman Shickle asked if these inter -parcel connectors were local or public streets. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the streets would be public; however, they could also be local streets, but they were not private streets. Supervisor Ewing asked if this was a public street. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that there was no street now. Vice -Chairman Van Osten stated that this section of the zoning ordinance was confusing and requested that it be revised. She went on to say that she believed the inter -parcel connector made good sense. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the Board has the authority to require the inter -parcel connector, if it is deemed appropriate. He concluded by saying that if the Board chooses to require this connector then the motion should just state that requirement. Upon a motion by Supervisor Forrester, seconded by Supervisor Tyler, the Board approved Master Development Plan #03-04 with the change that the street identified as Nassau Drive on the Master Development Plan be extended to the eastern property line of the property.

In addition, a motion was made by Commissioner Light and seconded by Commissioner Fisher to recommend denial of the waiver request. This was also passed by a majority vote as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven (Commissioners Straub, Watt, Kriz, and Triplett were absent.) Subdivision 905-04 of Daniel McKee/ Echo Village for two single-family detached traditional lots, zoned RP, containing a minimum of 15,000 square feet each. This property is located on Fay Street (Rt. 814), approximately 350' west of Rt. 11, in the Shawnee Magisterial District. Action - Recommended Approval Patrick T. Davenport, Zoning and Subdivision Administrator, stated that the two proposed lots will be accessed by a single private lane, which will be maintained by the two property owners. Administrator Davenport commented that there is some urgency behind this request because of a timing issue relating to funding available by VDOT that could be used to help remedy a serious drainage issue for the properties along King Street. Administrator Davenport next described the waiver requests being sought in conjunction with this subdivision request, as follows: 1) a request for a waiver of the master development plan has been granted by the Planning Director; 2) a request for a waiver of the state road frontage requirement for both lots; 3) a request for a waiver of the minimum lot width at front setback for Lot #1 (an 80 foot lot width at the front setback is required and Lot 41 as shown is approximately 70 feet). Administrator Davenport explained that it would be appropriate to forward a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors which would include these requested waivers and the ability for staff to administratively approve the plats when all of the requirements have been met. Regarding the timing of the consideration of this request, Planning Director Eric R. Lawrence stated that VDOT has some project money available; however, engineered plans must be submitted by the end of April for VDOT to fund the project. Director Lawrence said that the developer of these two lots has contracted Triad Engineering to do all of the storm water management designing that VDOT requires, but obviously, the developer was not going to proceed unless they could construct two houses on the property. Frederick County Planning Commission Page 1276 Minutes of April 7, 2004 • -7- VDOT representative, Mr. Lloyd Ingram, confirmed that considering the reconfiguration of the new traffic mix and increased vehicle trips per day, in addition to the existing traffic, VDOT was comfortable there would be sufficient stacking and turn lanes to accommodate the numbers. In addition, Mr. Ingram mentioned the two entrances, one consisting of a continuous right and the other a full intersection, along with the road layout, all of which, he believed, would contribute to the proper flow of traffic. Chairman DeHaven called for public comments, however, no one came forward to speak. Upon motion made by Commissioner Light and seconded by Commissioner Kriz, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby unanimously recommended approval of Rezoning #06-04 of Rutherford, LLC, submitted by Greenway Engineering, Inc., to rezone 13.4 acres from the RA (Rural Areas); B2 (Business General); B3 (Industrial Transition); and M1 (Light Industrial) Districts to the B2 (Business General) and B3 (Industrial Transition) Districts. (Please note: Commissioners Triplett and Ours were absent from the meeting.) PUBLIC MEETING Master Development Plan #03-04 for Fieldstone Subdivision, submitted by Greenway Engineering, for up to 63 single-family detached urban homes and 225 townhouses. The property is located south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659), to the east of Carlisle Heights Subdivision, and is identified with Property Identification Number 55-A-181, in the Red Bud District. Action - Recommended Approval of the Master Development Plan and Recommended Approval of the Lot Access Waiver Planner Jeremy F. Camp stated that the preliminary master development plan (MDP) revision for Fieldstone Subdivision was recommended for denial by the Planning Commission at their meeting of April 7, 2004, primarily based on the MDP's insufficient transportation planning. The Planning Commission also denied a waiver request during this meeting which would have allowed individual lots to be in excess of 500 feet from a state -maintained road. Planner Camp stated that on May 12, 2004, the Board of Supervisors voted to send the Fieldstone Subdivision MDP revision back to the Planning Commission; the Board made this decision in order to give the applicant another opportunity to address the density and transportation concerns the Planning Commission had raised during their review on April 7, 2004. Planner Camp continued, stating that the applicant has chosen not to extend the proposed state road to the property line to allow for possible future development; nor has the applicant made any other changes to the plan since the Planning Commission recommended denial on April 7, 2004. He explained that the failure to extend Nassau Drive to the eastern property line may impact the development potential of the properties to the east, and may not provide for an improved future transportation network to serve this area of Frederick County as well. Planner Camp said the original Fieldstone MDP was approved in 1988, prior to the adoption of the Eastern Road Plan; this is why previous revisions to the Fieldstone Subdivision did not require Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of June 2, 2004 Page 1310 Upon motion made by Commissioner Ours and seconded by Commissioner Morris, BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby recommend approval of MDP #02-04 of Crossroads Commercial Center, submitted by Greenway Engineering, for commercial and office uses located at the northeastern corner of the intersections of Fairfax Pike (Rt. 277) and Double Church Road (Rt. 641), by the following majority vote: YES (To Approve): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger NO: Gochenour ABSTAIN: DeHaven (Commissioners Triplett, Kriz, Watt, and Straub were absent from the meeting.) Chairman DeHaven resumed the conduction of the meeting at this point. Master Development Plan 903-04 for Fieldstone Subdivision, submitted by Greenway Engineering, for up to 63 single-family detached urban homes and 225 townhouses. The property is located south of Valley Mill Road (Rt. 659), to the east of Carlisle Heights Subdivision, and is identified with P.I.N. 55-A- 181, in the Red Bud District. Action - Recommended Denial Planner Jeremy F. Camp stated that this parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two phases: Phase 1 will be located west of Channing Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots and Phase 2 will be located east of Charming Drive and consist of 225 to Amhouses. Planner Camp said the proposed revised plan is to modify only Phase 2 from 90 single-family detached urban units to 225 townhouses, changing the overall gross residential density from 1.6 units per acre to three units per acre. He said that, in addition, the applicant is requesting that the Planning Commission approve a waiver to allow the proposed private street system to exceed 500 feet. Mr. Lloyd Ingram of VDOT verified that a revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and VDOT was satisfied because the applicant had agreed to install three turn lanes, in addition to entering into a signalization agreement where Channing Drive and Nassau intersect. Commission members questioned VDOT's satisfaction with the TIA in light of all of the traffic that would be utilizing the one -lane bridge to get to Rt. 7. Mr. Ingram said that VDOT has predicted the traffic would travel the route of least resistance, proceeding to Greenwood and down to Rt. 7, rather than attempting to traverse the bridge. Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of April 7, 2004 Page 1274 -8- • Mr. Evan A. Wyatt of Greenway Engineering, the design engineers for this project, gave an overview of the project for the Commission and explained the details of the waiver being requested. Chairman DeHaven called for public comments and the following persons came forward to speak: Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Stafford, the owners of the 85-acre Valley Mill Farm, LLC at 1494 Valley Mill Road expressed concerns about traffic, the impacts of additional sediment in Abrams Creek, the loss of historic integrity of their property, the impact on their quality of life, and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge to handle -additional traffic. Mr. and Mrs. Stafford offered to dedicate a portion of the northern part of their property for access, rather than channeling traffic to the one -lane bridge. Mr. Walter Johnson, a resident of Mill Race Estates, was opposed to the requested change from single family to townhouses and the increase in density. He cited the traffic congestion on Valley Mill Road and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge to handle the traffic. He did not think this area could handle the amount of traffic that would be generated by the increase in development. Mr. William Schuller was opposed to the townhouses because of the additional traffic it would generate. Mr. Schuller was displeased with the road work that has been done so far. Mr. Richard Racey, adjacent property owner, was opposed to the townhouses because of existing overcrowded schools, traffic congestion, and safety issues related to traffic on Valley Mill and Greenwood Road. Mr. Gary Adams, the executor and listing agent for the Goldie's LC tract to the east, commented that he would like to see Nassau Drive stubbed at the eastern property line of the Fieldstone tract. Without this connection, he was concerned that his property may be considered landlocked for future development. Members of the Planning Staff commented that there has been considerable discussion regarding subsequent development to the east. They commented on the overall transportation benefit of staff s recommendation for a continuation of Nassau to the east, possibly creating a connection to Rt. 7 that would skip beyond the one -lane bridge. Members of the Planning Commission were concerned about the increase in density from previous master development plans for this parcel, especially in light of the transportation problems. They pointed out the possibility of potential acceptable transportation solutions, although none had been presented for the Commission's consideration. Upon motion made by Commissioner Light and seconded by Commissioner Rosenberry, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the master development plan by the following majority vote: Frederick County Planning Commission Page 1275 Minutes of April 7, 2004 -8- the development to extend the road to the eastern property line. He said that both the 1996 and 2002 revisions proposed a reduction in the total number of residential units. Planner Camp pointed out that the proposed revision under consideration this evening is an increase of 135 units, consisting of a change from single-family detached dwellings to townhouses, and the revision has changed the internal public road network to a private road network. He said the staff believes the changes will generate additional impacts to Frederick County residents and because of these impacts, the staff looks to the developer to provide basic transportation improvements. Several representatives for the applicant, Arcadia Building Company, were available to address the various issues that had previously been raised at the Commission's April 7, 2004 meeting. Those representatives included Mr. Evan A. Wyatt with Greenway Engineering, the design engineers for the project; Mr. John Callow, Vice President with Patton, Harris, & Rust, the transportation engineers; and Mr. Doug Flemming, legal counsel. It was the representatives' opinion that the MDP was well within the required density. Specifically, it was noted that the revision involved only Section 2 by changing the 90 single-family units to 225 townhouses; the staff report indicated that 5.5 units per acre was the allowable density for this project. The applicant's representatives stated that with the change in their MDP, including the 63 single-family dwelling units in Section 1, they have 288 total units, which is 230 units less than what is permitted by the ordinance. Regarding the requested waiver, the applicant's representatives stated that the Planning Commission has granted such waivers in the past for similar subdivisions, if a satisfactory circulation pattern had been provided. The circulation pattern proposed was described; they noted that if the waiver was not approved, they would simply extend the state road portion to meet the 500-foot requirement. The applicant's representatives next addressed the issue ofthe overall transportation network and the issue of Nassau Drive not connecting to the east. The applicant's representatives noted that the Channing Drive construction, which is a key component of the Eastern Road Plan, had been accomplished through the Fieldstone subdivision from Valley Mill Road to the northern property limits. They believed the developers have done their part to implement the Comprehensive Policy Plan by constructing their portion of Channing Drive and by contributing $20,000 towards the traffic signal at the Greenwood Road/ Valley Mill Road intersection, and by entering into a signalization agreement with VDOT at Channing Drive. It was noted by the representatives that the Comprehensive Plan does not call for nor promote an east -west collector road through the Fieldstone community. In addition, it was their opinion that the subdivision ordinance did not mandate a road connection to the adjoining Adams property. In addition, there seemed to be a discrepancy from the applicant's point of view as to why the Board of Supervisors was sending the MDP back to the Planning Commission. The applicant's representatives believed the Board of Supervisors' motion was, "...to direct the Planning Commission to resolve the density issues and bring back the MDP to the Board's first meeting in June." The applicant believed this was not accurately represented in the staff's report. Members of the Planning Commission were of the opinion that VDOT had requested a revised traffic impact analysis because of the number of trips per day had doubled with the revision of the townhouses in Section 2. However, after further discussion, it was determined that a revised traffic analysis was not conducted; the applicant's representatives noted that when the developer came forward with their contribution for the traffic signal, there was no further discussion from VDOT regarding the need for additional revisions Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of June 2, 2004 Page 1311 to the traffic study. Other transportation issues raised involved the Commission's desire for inter -parcel connectors and their dislike of funneling traffic from a four -lane road down to a one -lane bridge. Some of the Commissioners anticipated major future transportation problems. Chairman DeHaven called for citizen comments and four citizens who live in the vicinity of this development spoke, as follows: Mr. Bob Carter, a resident on Valley Mill Road, came forward to speak about his concerns regarding traffic on Valley Mill Road. Mr. Carter did not believe the developers were doing their part in the way of contributing money towards road improvements. Mr. Tim Stafford, area resident, offered to employ, at his own expense, an outside traffic engineer to review and comment on the transportation issues in order to get another point of view. Mr. Stafford said that he did not understand how Fieldstone could be developed without a storm water management system. He expressed concern that the water runoff from the clear-cut slopes along the Charming Drive construction route flowed directly into Abrams Creek. He said that each time it rains, he loses another 50-year old tree on his farm because of impervious areas that are not being managed. Mr. Stafford believed that developers coming into Frederick County from other areas should be required to do a greater amount of improvements before they are granted approval for their projects. He believed that the Frederick County taxpayers will be left to maintain and manage public facilities long after the developers have gone. Mr. Gary Adams, the executor of the adjacent Goldies, LLC tract, wanted to go on record to state that this property is currently under contract for development with a major contractor out of the Washington, D.C. area. Mr. Adams said that at one time, when Mr. George Glaize owned the property before Arcadia bought it, he had a master development plan that showed two connector roads going into Goldies, LLC. Mr. Richard Racey, resident across from Charming Drive, agreed with all of the other comments that were made. Additionally, Mr. Racey raised concerns about the impacts to schools, roads, and the environment. He also questioned the need for these townhouses. Because the waiver associated with this request had been recommended for denial at the Commission's April 7, 2004 meeting, members of the Commission were of the opinion that the master plan was not in compliance with the subdivision ordinance. Commissioners believed the master plan should not be approved without re -addressing the waiver request. Mr. Lawrence Ambrogi, legal counsel for the Commission, believed that both issues could be considered together. Mr. Ambrogi also advised that the master plan should be approved, if all ordinance requirements were met. The Planning Commission expressed their concern about the cumulative affect of the traffic impacts from previously -approved developments in this area. Commission members stated that it was difficult to predict the cumulative traffic impact when the densities of proposed developments continue to change. Upon motion made by Commissioner Thomas and seconded by Commissioner Kriz, Frederick County Planning Commission Minutes of June 2, 2004 Page 1312 -10- 0 BE IT RESOLVED, That the Frederick County Planning Commission does hereby recommend approval of a lot access distance waiver, allowing residences on private drives up to 624 feet from a public road, and also recommends approval of MDP #03-04 Fieldstone subdivision. The majority vote was as follows: YES (TO APPROVE): Watt, Unger, Morris, Light, Thomas, Kriz, Fisher NO: Straub, Gochenour, DeHaven, Rosenberry (Commissioners Triplett and Ours were absent from the meeting.) Master Development Plan #06-04 of Winchester Medical Center II, submitted by G. W. Clifford & Associates, for retail, commercial and medical support use on approximately 102 acres, zoned B2 (Business General) and MS (Medical Support) Districts. The property is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Route 37 and Route 50 West, and is identified with Property Identification Number 53-A-68, in the Gainesboro Magisterial District. Action - Recommended Approval Planner Jeremy F. Camp reported the background information for the Commission. He stated that the parcel is entirely within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the SWSA (Sewer and Water Service Area); there are no known environmental restraints; the proposed internal private road network will be designed to meet state road standards as required by the zoning ordinance; and, a waiver by the Board of Supervisors will be required to allow individual lots to access private roads. He noted that Botanical Boulevard, the proffered major collector road, is the only proposed public road into the development. Planner Camp next read the list of the applicant's proffers, most ofwhich focused on the mitigation of traffic. Members of the Commission noted that VDOT had raised a number of issues and they questioned whether those issues had been resolved. Planner Camp replied that VDOT was comfortable with the plan and he believed the issues identified would not prohibit the plan from proceeding forward. In addition, the Commission raised questions concerning the timing of development, the possibility of awestern access to the Route 37 Interchange, and the construction of Echo Lane. Mr. Charles W. Maddox, Jr. with G. W. Clifford & Associates, a division of Patton, Harris, and Rust, the design engineers for this project, was present to represent the applicant. Mr. Maddox gave a presentation of the master plan to the Commission. He assured the Commission that the road plan will be in place as part of the first use established within the B2 portion of development. It was detennined that the Planning Commission did not need to provide a formal recommendation on the requested lot access waiver because the granting of the waiver required only Board of Supervisors' action.

Tyler - Aye PLANNING COMMISSION BUSINESS: AMENDMENT OF MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN PROCESS FOR CHANNING DRIVE DEVELOPMENTS - (RESOLUTION #054-04)) - APPROVED Director Lawrence appeared before the Board on behalf of this item. He explained that this request came about because staff was approached by a representative from an engineering firm. He advised that the County's position has in the past been that the master development plans for the three developments could not be changed unless all three developers sign an agreement. The County has received a request that the County consider revisions to individual master development plans for this development, if the right-of-way for Channing Drive is dedicated to the County and a monetary guarantee is put into place. He went on to say that staff feels this proposed policy change would not impact the proffers and the projects would continue to be intertwined. Director Lawrence stated that staff would bring the proposed amendments to the Master Development Plans to the Board before they are adopted and could still pressure the developers to guarantee that the road would be built. He concluded by saying that staff thinks this is a fair proposal after reviewing the master plans and supporting documents and recommends approval. Mr. Mark Smith, Greenway Engineering, advised that the construction of Clratnvng Drive was ahead of schedule. He stated that it was about 75% complete on the Fieldstone property and the Lyn Haven and Sovereign Village sections were working well together. Drive. Chairman Shickle asked at what point the developer would have to build all of Channing Mr. Smith responded that the proffers state that the road must be built when development is adjacent to it. Chairman Shickle asked when the road would be built. Mr. Smith responded that the proffers would rule; however, under the proposal submitted to staff the Board would see the submission of a revised master plan and at that time, the Board could say when it would be built. Assistant Administrator Tierney responded that it would be a function of the build out of the Minute Book Number 29 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 03/24/04 496 A Regular Meeting of the Frederick County Board of Supervisors was held on Wednesday, May 12, 2004, at 7:15 P.M., in the Board of Supervisors' Meeting Room, County Administration Building, 107 North Kent Street, Winchester, Virginia.

He stated that his major concern was traffic as the existing bridge was not to be improved for six or seven years. He concluded by saying that the development should be done "smartly". Tootse R. Stafford, Red Bud District and owner of Valley Mill Farm, advised that her husband had addressed their concerns and she had nothing additional to add. She discussed the historical significance of the existing masonry barn on the property, as it might be the only one of its kind in Frederick County. Gary Adams, representing Goldies LC, appeared before the Board to address the Fieldstone Subdivision Master Development Plan. He expressed his concerns about the proposed connector li road. Richard Racey, Red Bud District, advised the Board that he lived across from the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision. He stated that the project would generate three times the traffic of the original plan. He was also concerned about school overcrowding problems. William Schuller, Red Bud District, appeared before the Board to address the Fieldstone Subdivision Master Development Plan, He advised the Board that he was a resident of Valley Mill Road and he felt there was not a need for townhouses in this project. He stated that single-family homes would work. Vincent Lord, Stonewall District, appeared before the Board to address the Hiatt Run Master Development Plan. He advised that he had not seen the final plan, but he appeared before the Planning Commission when it was denied the first time. He informed the Board that there were drainage problems on the northeast portion of the property. He concluded by asking how he could be assured that this development would be an age restricted community. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS COMMENTS There were no Board of Supervisors comments. Minute Book Number 29 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 05/12/04 506 present to answer any questions. Supervisor Ewing asked what affect denial of this application would have on the construction of Channing Drive. Planner II Camp advised that Channing Drive would be constructed regardless of approval or denial. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering, appeared before the Board on behalf of the applicant. He advised that the road design for Channing Drive does not account for it going through the Bean property. He concluded by saying that if the rezoning is approved the property would become part of the Lynnhaven Master Development Plan. Chairman Shickle convened the public hearing. There were no public comments. Chairman Shickle closed the public hearing. Supervisor Forrester advised that she had made a promise to her constituents that if the schools were overcrowded then she would not approve any development that would compound the situation. She concluded by saying that she could not in good conscience make a motion, even though this was a good use for that property. Upon a motion by Vice -Chairman Van Osten, seconded by Supervisor Dove, the Board approved Rezoning Application #04-04. The above motion was approved by the following recorded vote: Richard C. Shickle - Aye Barbara E. Van Osten - Aye Gary W. Dove - Aye Bill M. Ewing - Aye Gina A. Forrester - Nay W. Harrington Smith, Jr. - Aye Lynda J. Tyler - Aye OTHER PLANNING ITEMS MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN #03-04 OF FIELDSTONE SUBDIVISION - REMOVED FROM AGENDA This item was removed from the agenda during the adoption of the agenda at the beginning of the meeting, MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN #04-04 OF HIATT RUN ADULT COMMUNITY - APPROVED Planner II Camp appeared before the Board on behalf of this item. He advised that this was Minute Book Number 29 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 05/12/04 Board Meeting Minutes of 06/09/04 MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN #03-04 OF FIELDSTONE SUBDIVISION - APPROVED Planner II Jeremy Camp appeared before the Board on behalf of this application. He advised that the original master development plan was approved in 1988 and has been revised twice. The proposed plan calls for an increase in density from 150 units to 288 (63 single-family detached and 225 townhouses) units. The property is located in the Red Bud Magisterial District and is zoned RP (Residential Performance). The future Channing Drive will bisect the property and a 6 foot asphalt trail is also proposed. Planner II Camp advised that the Planning Commission had expressed interest in extending Nassau Drive as a possible connector road. The applicant was not amenable to this request. The Planning Commission did recommend approval of the master development plan and lot access waiver. He concluded by saying that the applicant was seeking authorization of the preliminary master development plan, which would grant staff with administrative approval authority for the final master development plan. He advised that the applicant was represented by Greenway Engineering who was present to answer any questions. Chairman Shickle asked if the ordinance required a six foot trail, similar to the one being provided by the applicant. Planner II Camp responded that there was not an ordinance requirement. Chairman Shickle asked if the County could get a ten foot trail, since the Parks and Recreation bike trails were ten feet. Planner II Camp responded that staff was working on developing a comprehensive bike trail plan; however, there is currently no ordinance requirement to provide a trail. Supervisor Forrester asked if the density of a project changes, could the Board reject the plan if they felt the traffic was too much for the existing road infrastructure. Director Lawrence responded that the increased density was a by right use; therefore, no new traffic impact analysis study would be required. Lloyd Engram, VDOT Engineer, advised that VDOT looks at how much the density would be increasing and then looks at the percentage increase in traffic. Supervisor Forrester stated that she had read in the staff report that it was anticipated the level of traffic would double under this new proposal. Engineer Engram advised that a light would be constructed on Valley Mill Road. • Vice -Chairman Van Osten asked Engineer Engram if he was satisfied that this light would deal with the potential traffic impact. Engineer Engram responded yes. Jerry Copp, VDOT Resident Engineer, advised that the light on Valley Mill Road was a go, but he could not say for sure when it would constructed. He stated that the earliest it would be installed would be sometime in 2005. Evan Wyatt, Greenway Engineering, appeared before the Board on behalf of Arcadia Building Company. He advised that Arcadia came before the Board previously with this issue and the Board removed this item from the agenda and referred it back to the Planning Commission to deal with the issue of density. The Planning Commission recommended approval of this plan and approved the necessary waiver request also. Mr. Wyatt explained that the vision for this project is upscale townhouses in a closed community concept, which would be marketed to commuters. He advised that Arcadia desires to be the first in the area with this type of project. Mr. Wyatt went on to say that when Arcadia purchased this property, there was a commitment for the completion of Channing Drive prior to the permitting of the first dwelling unit for this project. Arcadia has completed their portion and has agreed to provide $20,000 as part of the signalization improvement as well. Mr. Wyatt concluded by saying that, according to staff, the plan complies with the comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance, and subdivision ordinance requirements. Mr. Wyatt then introduced Doug Fleming, legal counsel for Arcadia. Mr. Fleming advised that he has been serving as legal counsel to Arcadia for a number of years. He stated that he appreciated the Planning Commission's vote to recommend approval of this master development plan and approval of the necessary waiver. Mr. Fleming advised that the plan does comply with the requirements of the zoning ordinance and subdivision ordinance. He then stated that he felt it was important to make some brief observations regarding the transportation concerns, such as the extension of Nassau Drive. He advised that Arcadia had implemented its portion of the eastern road plan and noted that the Comprehensive Plan does not require or include an east/west connector in this area. Mr. Fleming stated that the properties to the east of this project have not been rezoned and are undeveloped; therefore, it would be profoundly unfair to Arcadia to require them to create a road not included in the county's documents. He went on to say that no adjoining landowner has ever called or requested to meet with Arcadia regarding a Nassau Drive connection, but they would not refuse discussions on this issue. He concluded by saying that the County Attorney believes that if the plan meets the ordinance requirements then the Board should approve the master development plan. He then thanked the Board for the opportunity to speak. Mr. Wyatt stated that Arcadia's biggest concern about extending Nassau Drive is that it could serve as a substitute route to Route 7, which would disrupt the project 0 • and property. He advised that Arcadia had invested money in constructing Channing Drive and now the County was talking about additional road costs. He concluded by saying that this concept would not work through Fieldstone. Mr. Fleming advised that an extension of Nassau Drive would have an adverse impact on the project and would exponentially benefit the property owners to the east. He concluded by saying that Arcadia would not rule out extending Nassau Drive, but they have not been contacted by any of the adjacent property owners. Vice -Chairman Van Osten asked for a description of Nassau Drive. Mr. Wyatt explained that it was a 50 foot right-of-way connected to Channing Drive, which then enters the property and stubs out. Vice -Chairman Van Osten advised that she understood the applicants objections to a major collector road, but asked why they would object to a smaller road. Deputy Director Mohn advised that staff was looking for a path to Route 7 and this was not an option with Arcadia. He went on to say that staff was looking for compliance with the subdivision ordinance. Mr. Fleming advised that the subdivision ordinance does not require this extension. He advised that there was no plan nor were there existing or platted streets on the Adams' parcel. He concluded by saying that the applicant has complied with the ordinance. Deputy Director Mohn advised that there was probably an error in the staff report, but staff did note that the subdivision ordinance does look for connections. He went on to say that this was not a new issue. Vice -Chairman Van Osten reviewed the ordinance section in question and stated that it seemed like a question of semantics. Supervisor Tyler advised that she would like to explore Mr. Stafford's suggestion of prohibiting right turns on to Valley Mill Road and left turns on to Channing Drive. Engineer Copp stated that there was a way to do that, but he was not in a position to determine that at the present. Supervisor Dove asked if signage could be installed on Valley Mill Road. Engineer Copp responded that VDOT must look at other impacts caused by this option. He advised that there was a lot to consider. Supervisor Dove asked if this was a decision the Board could make. • i Engineer Copp responded that the Board could make a recommendation, but VDOT would make the final decision. He advised that he would work with the Board and staff to address these issues. Supervisor Forrester advised she was not happy about this, but moved to grant staff administrative approval authority contingent upon the applicant providing the necessary extension of the local street known as an inter -parcel connector, Nassau Drive, to the eastern property line per 144-17 B (2) of the County Code; the applicant to address all relevant state and local ordinances; and satisfactorily address all review agency, Planning Commission, and Board of Supervisors comments applicable to this project. The motion was seconded by Vice -Chairman Van Osten. Supervisor Forrester advised that things were getting very complicated in this area and she asked the Board to help her with the transportation issues. Chairman Shickle stated that he had apprehensions about suggesting barricades be put up on these roads. He advised that he would like to keep his options open. Supervisor Forrester stated that she did not believe the road would be used as a collector road and that the extension of Nassau Drive makes for a far better transportation pattern. Director Lawrence advised that staff was looking at a public road. Chairman Shickle stated that he wanted to ensure that the inter -parcel connector would not be a major transportation route. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the County has a history of requiring inter - parcel connectors and staff is suggesting that an inter -parcel connector is appropriate in this instance. He advised that it would serve as an alternative means to get in or out of the subdivision. He concluded by saying that the County is simply talking about neighborhood access. Supervisor Forrester asked if the Board could put a notation on the master development plan regarding the inter -parcel connector. Supervisor Tyler advised that she was getting uncomfortable with putting conditions on a plan because of an adjoining property. Director Lawrence stated that the July 2003 comments stated there needs to be an inter - parcel connector. Chairman Shickle asked about the difference between the previous master development plan and this one. Director Lawrence advised that this was a major change because the applicant was changing the product from single-family dwellings to townhouses. Supervisor Ewing stated that the existing road conditions out there make it difficult to support this application; however, they have met every requirement and "I see no way to vote no." There being no further discussion, Master Development Plan #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision was approved by the following recorded vote: Richard C. Shickle - Nay Barbara E. Van Osten - Aye Gary W.

CITIZEN COMMENTS Gary Adams, Red Bud District, appeared before the Board to address the Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision. He advised that he was executor of Goldie's LC estate, which adjoins the Fieldstone and Fu-Shep Developments. He believed that the inter -parcel connector, which was required by the Board was needed. He then presented a letter to the Board dated February 2004 in which Arcadia expressed their interest in purchasing this parcel. Minute Book Number 30 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 08/11/04 06611 • is Blaine Dunn, Red Bud District, appeared before the Board to address the Master Development Plan for Channing Drive, Phases nine & 10. He asked the Board to vote no on this proposed plan because, if approved, it would have a direct effect on the neighborhood residents. Ile concluded by asking Toll Brothers to work with the Board of Supervisors on this project. Tim Stafford, Red Bud District, began by expressing his condolences to the Board on the loss of Supervisor W. Harrington Smith, Jr. He then address the Fieldstone Subdivision Master Development Plan and more particularly the Nassau Drive issue. He stated that it was imperative that the Board "stick to their guns" and make Nassau Drive a connector road. PLANNING COMMISSION BUSINESS PUBLIC HEARING PUBLIC HEARING - REZONING #07-04 OF WILLIAM H. LAWRENCE, III, SUBMITTED BY GILBERT W. CLIFFORD & ASSOCIATES, INC. TO REZONE 1.965 ACRES FROM RA (RURAL AREAS) DISTRICT TO B2 (BUSINESS GENERAL) DISTRICT. THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF MARTINSBURG PIKE (ROUTE 11 N), SOUTH AND ADJACENT TO CLEARBROOK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, AND BOUNDED TO THE EAST AND SOUTH BY CLEARBROOK PARK, AND IS IDENTIFIED WITII PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 33-A-162 IN THE STONEWALL MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT. - APPROVED Planner I and Acting Zoning & Subdivision Administrator Mark Cheran appeared before the Board on behalf of this application. He advised that this was a proposal to rezone 1.965 acres from RA (Rural Areas) District to B2 (Business General) District. This property is located in the Stonewall Magisterial District and the Sewer and Water Service Area. The proposal also conforms to the Northeast Land Use Plan. Planner I Cheran stated that the applicant has proffered landscaping to offset compatibility concerns relative to this project and adjacent properties. The applicant has also proffered to prohibit several B2 uses, including service station, auto dealership, and truck stop. Planner I Cheran advised that the traffic impact analysis projects the level of service at build out to be level C or better. The applicant has also proffered a monetary contribution of $2,000.00 each to Frederick County Fire & Rescue and Sheriff's Departments. He concluded by saying that the final buffer plan will be developed by staff and the applicant. Supervisor Tyler stated that she was concerned about the buffer on the property boundary with the park. She stated that the Parks & Recreation Committee would like to have an evergreen buffer. Minute Book Number 30 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting of 08/11/04 + fy' • _ �Gl y Board Meeting Minutes of 08/11/04 MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN - FIELDSTONE SUBDIVISION - APPROVED Assistant Administrator Tierney presented this item to the Board. He advised that this master development plan had come before the Board on June 9, 2004 and was a proposal to construct 63 single-family dwellings and 225 townhouse units, located in the Red Bud District. The Board approved this master development plan with the stipulation that the applicant provide the necessary extension of the local street known as an inter -parcel connector, Nassau Drive, to the eastern property line per 144-17 B (2) of the County Code. The applicant objected to that stipulation. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that Attorney Bob Mitchell reviewed the motion and zoning ordinance section cited and determined that the section cited did not apply to this particular application. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that there were provisions in the County's subdivision and zoning ordinance to require the applicant to provide this access. He concluded by saying that the matter is back before the Board for clarification action. Supervisor Forrester asked if the County was requiring a connection to the subdivision. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the County was trying to ensure that the subdivision has multiple means of access. Chairman Shickle asked if these inter -parcel connectors were local or public streets. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the streets would be public; however, they could also be local streets, but they were not private streets. Supervisor Ewing asked if this was a public street. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that there was no street now. Vice -Chairman Van Osten stated that this section of the zoning ordinance was confusing and requested that it be revised. She went on to say that she believed the inter -parcel connector made good sense. Assistant Administrator Tierney advised that the Board has the authority to require the inter -parcel connector, if it is deemed appropriate. He concluded by saying that if the Board chooses to require this connector then the motion should just state that requirement. Upon a motion by Supervisor Forrester, seconded by Supervisor Tyler, the Board approved Master Development Plan #03-04 with the change that the street identified as Nassau Drive on the Master Development Plan be extended to the eastern property line of the property.

In reviewing both County and VDOT records, it appears that the contribution has not yet been paid for your project. More specifically, the master development plan note states, "Arcadia Development Co. will contribute in the amount of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) to the traffic signal at the intersection of Route 659 and Route 656" (Sheet 1 of 4 on the MDP). The County requests that this $20,000 contribution be made payable to the "Frederick County Treasurer," and be submitted to the Frederick County Planning Department. These funds will be utilized in the costs of the traffic signal installation. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please contact me should you have additional ques c 'ons. Si rely, r Ed R.

MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 2 June 3, 2004 REVIEW EVALUATIONS: Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The amended Master Development Plan for this property appears to have a measurable impact on Charming Drive, Routes 659 and 656, the VDOT facilities which would provide access to the property. Based on our conversation on September 22, 2003 the number of trips per day for Section II is being doubled from approximately 900 trips per day to 1800 trips per day. With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work. Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended. Sanitation Authority: Approved - amended County Inspections: No comment required at this time. Shall comment at the time of subdivision plan. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. A comprehensive review shall be performed at the time of subdivision plan approval. Geographic Information Systems: Braxton Place & Nassau Dr. previously approved & reserved for use in system. Rebecca Dr. & Channing Dr. are extensions to existing roads. Suffixes are appropriate & correct. Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation: The revised Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision appears to meet the county open space and recreational unit requirements. However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain area and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be ten feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used'by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal .Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of ten feet in width. The potential for the.trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided. Winchester Regional Airport: The above referenced proposal has been reviewed and it appears that the proposed site plan will not have an impact on operations at the Winchester Regional Airport as the proposed site falls outside of the airport's Part 77 surface. No special requirements or conditions are requested on behalf of the Winchester Regional Airport Authority. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe operations of the Winchester Regional Airport. 0 MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 3 June 3, 2004 Frederick County Public Schools: No additional comments at this time. Planning & Zoning: A) Master Development Plan Requirement A master development plan is required for most subdivisions and development of property in Frederick County. Before a master development plan can be approved, it must be reviewed by the Planning Commission, Board of Supervisors and all relevant review agencies. Approval may only be granted if the master development plan conforms to all requirements of the Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. The purpose of the master development plan is to promote orderly and planned development of property within Frederick County that suits the characteristics of the land, is harmonious with adjoining property and is in the best interest of the general public. B) Location The 94.362 acres of the subject property are located within the Red Bud Magisterial District and are south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Abrams Creek, past the Carlisle Heights Subdivision. Mill Race Estates and Valley Mill Estates are located north of the property across from Valley Mill Road (Route 659). The parcel of land will be accessible via Channing Drive, which will bisect the parcel in the center. The property is located north of the Lynnehaven and Giles (now Manning & Ross) portions of the Charming Drive Subdivision. C) Site History The original Zoning Map for Frederick County (U.S.G.S. Shephenson, VA Quadrangle) identified this land as being zoned A-2 (Agricultural General) District. On August 26,1987 the property was rezoned to the RP (Residential Performance) District under rezoning application #017-87 of Eastern Frederick Development Company. The original master development plan for this property, previously referred to as Fieldstone Heights, was approved on February 16, 1988 for 215 single-family dwellings. On February 26, 1996 the master development plan was revised to accommodate 169 single-family detached traditional dwellings (15, 000 square foot minimum without curb & gutter). Then on February 285 2002, the master development plan was revised again; this time to accommodate 153 single- family detached urban lots (12, 000 square foot minimum with curb & gutter). D) Intended Use The parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two sections. Section 1 will be located west of Channing Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots. Section 2 will be located east of Channing Drive and consist of 225 townhouses. • r: MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 4 June 3, 2004 Planning Staff Comment. The applicant should clarify the proposed phasing of these sections and their relationship to the construction of Channing Drive. E) Site Suitability Land Use Compatibility: The site of the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision is located at the fringe between suburban residential and rural residential development. Single-family residential land uses prevail in the area, although a limited number of agricultural land uses are in the area as well. Historic Resources: The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey does not identify any potentially significant historic resources on the site of the proposed master development plan. Furthermore, according to the National Park Service's Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the subject site is not included in any battlefield study area and does not contain any core battlefield resources. Environment: The subject site contains 13.92 acres of steep slopes and 10.24 acres of floodplain. Both the areas of steep slope and floodplain are located in the front third of the parcel. A total of 3.48 acres (25%) of steep slopes and .3 acres of floodplain are proposed to be disturbed by this development. No disturbance of the riparian buffers around Abrams Creek shall be permitted except for the construction of roads (Channing Drive), public utilities, and public facilities. The General Soil Map of the Soil Survey of Frederick County, Virginia indicates that the soils comprising the subject parcels fall under the Weikei-t-Berk soil association, which are common soil types found east of Interstate 81. It is noted that these soil types present some limitations to site development due to a seasonal high water table, depth to bedrock, and slope. The management of such characteristics must be demonstrated through the site development process. Transportation: The Comprehensive Policy Plan classifies Valley Mill Road (Route 659) as a major collector road. As part of the proposed development, a new maj or collector road shall be constructed from Valley Mill Road (Route 659) to the southern limits of the development, which will ultimately link Valley Mill Road (Route 659) with Senseny Road (Route 657). This new road is a component of the Eastern Road Plan, found on page 7-15 of the Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan. The Eastern Road Plan also calls for the eventual improvement of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Senseny Road (Route 657). Nassau Drive is a proposed public road which will be constructed off of Channing Drive for access to both the east and west portions of the property. All roads within Section 1 (single- family detached urban dwellings) will be public. Access to Section 2 (townhouses) shall be provided via a private road network connected to Nassau Drive. Per Section 144-24, of the 0 MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 5 June 3, 2004 Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance, individual lots accessed by private streets shall be located within 500 feet of a public road. The applicant is seeking approval from the Planning Commission for a distance approximately 624 feet from a public road. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the ability to allow lots to be located as much as 800 feet from a state road in cases where enhanced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. Planning Staff Note: The Planning Commission approved the applicant's request for a lot access distance waiver during their meeting on June 2, 2004. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the authority to grant a waiverfor the length ofprivate roads. Therefore, the waiver has been approved and further action by the Board is not needed for this waiver. Comprehensive Policy Plan: The 94.362-acre parcel is zoned RP (Residential Performance) and is within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the S WSA (Sewer and Water Service Area). The property is not located within the study area of any small area land use plan. It is located just outside of the Route 7 East Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1994. The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. Density: The overall gross residential density proposed with this master development plan is 3.05 units per acre. This breaks down to a 1.40 gross density in Section 1 and a 4.56 gross density in Section 2. The maximum gross density for a parcel of this size is 5.5 dwelling units per acre. Recreational Facilities, Landscaping, Buffers, and Open Space The revised master development plan for the Fieldstone Subdivision shall contain at least 28.3 09 acres (30%) of open space; of which, slightly more than 50% shall be located outside of areas of steep slopes. For the proposed townhouses, one recreational unit shall also be provided for every 30 dwelling units. This calculates to a total of eight required recreational units. Landscaping shall be provided for all proposed parking lots and as required by Section 165-36, Landscaping, of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. A residential separation buffer is required between the proposed townhouses and the southern property line. In addition to this buffer, a road efficiency buffer is required between the proposed residential uses and Charming Drive. A six foot wide asphalt trail will be provided within the inactive portion of the road efficiency buffer along Charming Drive. The proposed trail is shown on the west side of Channing Drive, from the southern limits of the parcel, to the rear of the proposed townhouse development. Planning Staff Comment: Staff suggests that the proposed trail be extended to Abrams Creek to allow for the possibility of connecting it with a nature trail which could emerge in the MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 6 June 3, 2004 future alongAbrams Creek. If amenable, the applicant could also provide assurances for an easement alongAbrams Creek to allow Frederick County to use the property for a public trail if determined appropriate in the future. PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION OF 04/07/04 MEETING: The owners of the 85-acre Valley Mill Farm, LLC at 1494 Valley Mill Road expressed concerns about traffic, the impacts of additional sediment in Abrams Creek, the loss of historic integrity of their property, the impact on their quality of life, and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge. Valley Mill Farm owners offered to dedicate a portion of the northern part of their property for access, rather than channeling traffic to the one -lane bridge. Four other citizens came forward to speak in opposition to the townhouse development; their concerns included traffic and safety issues, and overcrowded schools. The owner of the Goldie's LC tract to the east commented that he would like to see Nassau Drive stubbed at the eastern property line of the Fieldstone tract. Without this connection he was concerned that his property may be considered landlocked for future development. A VDOT representative verified that a revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and VDOT was satisfied because the applicant had agreed to install three turn lanes, in addition to entering into a signalization agreement where Channing Drive and Nassau intersect. Commission members questioned VDOT's satisfaction with the TIA in light of the all of the traffic that would be utilizing the one -lane bridge to get to Rt. 7. VDOT predicted the traffic would travel the route of least resistance, and go to Greenwood and down to Rt. 7, rather than attempting to traverse the bridge. Members of the Planning Staff commented that there has been considerable discussion regarding subsequent development to the east. They commented on the overall transportation benefit of staff s recommendation for a continuation of Nassau to the east, possibly creating a connection to Rt. 7 that would skip beyond the one -lane bridge. Members of the Planning Commission were concerned about the increase in density from previous master development plans for this parcel, especially in light of the transportation problems. They pointed out the possibility of potential acceptable transportation solutions, although none had been presented for the Commission's consideration. By a majority vote, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the master development plan, as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven In addition, a motion and second was made to recommend denial of the waiver request. This was also passed by a majority vote as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 7 June 3, 2004 NO: DeHaven (Please note: Commissioners Triplett, Kriz, Watt, and Straub were absent from the meeting.) PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION FOR THE 06/02/04 MEETING: Several representatives for the applicant were available to address various issues that had previously been raised. It was the representatives' opinion that the MDP was well within the required density. Specifically, it was noted that the revision involved only Section 2 by changing the 90 single-family units to 225 townhouses; the staff report indicated that 5.5 units per acre was the allowable density for this project. The applicant's representatives stated that with the change in their MDP, including the 63 single-family dwelling units in Section 1, they have 288 total units, which is 230 units less than what is permitted by the ordinance. Regarding the requested waiver, the applicant's representatives stated that the Planning Commission has granted such waivers in the past for similar subdivisions, if a satisfactory circulation pattern had been provided. The circulation pattern proposed was described; they noted that if the waiver was not approved, they would simply extend the state road portion to meet the 500-foot requirement. The applicant's representatives next addressed the issue of the overall transportation network and the issue of Nassau Drive not connecting to the east. The applicant's representatives noted that the Channing Drive construction, which is a key component of the Eastern Road Plan, had been accomplished through the Fieldstone subdivision from Valley Mill Road to the northern property limits. They believed the developers have done their part to implement the Comprehensive Policy Plan by constructing their portion of Channing Drive and by contributing $20,000 towards the traffic signal at the Greenwood Road/ Valley Mill Road intersection, and by entering into a signalization agreement with VDOT at Charming Drive. It was noted by the representatives that the Comprehensive Plan does not call for nor promote an east -west collector road through the Fieldstone community. In addition, it was their opinion that the subdivision ordinance did not mandate a road connection to the adjoining Adams property. In addition, there seemed to be a discrepancy from the applicant's point of view as to why the Board of Supervisors was sending the MDP back to the Planning Commission. The applicant's representatives believed the Board of Supervisors' motion was, "...to direct the Planning Commission to resolve the density issues and bring back the MDP to the Board's first meeting in June." The applicant believed this was not accurately represented' in the staff s report. Members of the Planning Commission were of the opinion that VDOT had requested a revised traffic impact analysis because of the number of trips per day had doubled with the revision of the townhouses in Section 2. However, it was determined that this revised traffic analysis was not accomplished. The applicant's representatives noted that when the -developer came forward with their contribution for the traffic signal, there was no further discussion regarding the need for additional revisions to the traffic study. Additionally, members of the Commission pointed out that they have consistently recommended MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 8 June 3, 2004 inter -parcel connectors in the past. Four citizens who live in the vicinity of this development spoke at the public meeting. The citizens did not believe the developers were doing their part in the way of contributing money towards road improvements; they voiced their opinions that developers coming into Frederick County should be required to do a greater amount of improvements before they are granted approval for their projects. They anticipated that the taxpayers will be left to maintain and manage public facilities after the developers have gone. One citizen suggested that an outside traffic engineer be hired to review and comment on the transportation issues. It was also stated that Fieldstone was developed without a storm water management system; there were complaints that the water runoff from the clear cut slopes for the Charming Drive construction flowed directly into Abrams Creek. The executor of the adjacent Goldies, LLC tract stated that his property is currently under contract for development. Impacts on schools, roads, and the environment were also mentioned. The Planning Commission recalled that they had recommended denial of the waiver at their April 19, 2004 meeting; therefore, the MDP was not in compliance with the subdivision ordinance. Commissioners suggested that the MDP should not be approved without re -addressing the waiver request. The legal counsel for the Commission stated that both issues could be considered together; the legal counsel also recommended that if all ordinance requirements were met, the MDP should be approved. The Planning Commission expressed their concern about the cumulative affect of the traffic impacts from previously -approved developments in this area. Commission members stated that it was difficult to predict the cumulative traffic impact when the densities of proposed development continue to change. By a majority vote, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the waiver request, allowing residences on private drives up to 624 feet from a public road and also recommended approval of MDP #03-04 Fieldstone subdivision. The vote was as follows: YES (TO APPROVE): Watt, Unger, Morris, Light, Thomas, Kriz, Fisher NO: Straub, Gochenour, DeHaven, Rosenberry (Commissioners Triplett and Ours were absent from the meeting.) STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 06/09/04 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING: This Master Development Plan is consistent with the technical requirements of the Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances, as they relate to Master Development Plans. However, transportation concerns with the project still exist. In particular, Nassau Drive has not been stubbed at the eastern property line. Planning Staff, Members of the Planning Commission, as well as VDOT, have MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 9 June 3, 2004 recommended that this road be extended to the eastern property line; which would allow for a possible future improved transportation network for this area of Frederick County. All of the issues identified by the Board of Supervisors should be appropriately addressed by the applicant. The Planning Commission recommended that administrative approval be authorized during their meeting on June 2, 2004. The Planning Commission also approved the requested lot access waiver. No action is necessary by the Board regarding this waiver. The applicant is seeking authorization of the preliminary master development plan by the Board of Supervisors. The Board's authorization will grant staff with administrative approval authority for the final master development plan. • 0 of Frederick County, Virginia Master Development Plan Application Package APPLICATION MASTER DEVELOPMENT PLAN 1.

Staff offers the review comments listed below for your consideration. Preliminary Review Comments: 1) Road Layout For Townhouses. Please show the proposed road layout for the proposed townhouse development (Section II). Staff suggests that you continue Highcliffe Drive to the eastern property line to allow for the possibility to extend the road in the future. The townhouses should not have direct access to this road. 2) Riparian Buffer. Please show and label the required riparian buffer along the natural waterways located on the property. Land disturbance within these buffers is prohibited except for public utilities, public facilities or roads. 3) Landscaping Option. Please specify which of the three landscaping options will be utilized to satisfy the requirements of Section 165-36 of the Zoning Ordinance. This would either be street tree landscaping, ornamental landscaping, or tree preservation landscaping. 4) Recreational Units. Please specify the number of recreational units required on the plan. Furthermore, please show the location and provide information on the type of recreational facility that will be provided. If recreational facilities will be provided in the open space/floodplain, parking will need to be provided. 5) Proposed Trail. Please show the limits of the proposed trail more clearly. The trail should extend from the western portion of Valley Mill Road to the southern portion of Channing Drive. Please also specify the width and construction details of the proposed trail. 107 North Kent Street • Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 Page 2 Mr. Adhikusuma Preliminary Review Comments for Fieldstone Subdivision MDP (revision) July 30, 2003 6) Proposed Use. Please specify that the proposed use is single family detached urban lots and townhouse lots. The plan currently states that single family detached lots and single family attached lots are proposed. This is rather vague. 7) Average Lot Area. The Zoning Ordinance requires that the average lot area for this townhouse development be at least 2,200 square feet. Please state this on the MDP. 8) Lot Area Tabulation. The calculations for the amount of land within the total number of lots per phase does not appear to be correct. For example, if you multiply the minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet by the number of lots (63) you come up with a number greatly different than shown. The same is the case with Phase II of the development. Please clarify what this area includes. 9) Gross Density Tabulation. Please correct the gross density totals shown on the first page of the MDP. The density for Phase I should be 1.4 dwelling units per acre, and for Phase II it should be 4.20 dwelling units per acre. 10) Typos. Please correct the spelling of "by" in the County Administrator approval box. Also, please correct the spelling of "boundary" in your townhouse setback table. 11) Agency Comments. Please ensure that the Planning Staff is provided with review comments from all of the following review agencies: the Frederick County Department of Public Works, Frederick County Department of Building Inspections, Frederick County Department of Parks & Recreation, Frederick County Fire Marshal, Airport Authority, Frederick County Sanitation Authority, Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), and the Frederick County Department of Geographic Information Systems. Please address the above comments and those provided to you from the review agencies. In order to continue the review of this Master Development Plan, you will need to submit the complete MDP application, which includes review agency comments and review fee, to this department. Once this information is received, staff will schedule the application for review by the Planning Commission and later the Board of Supervisors. The review fee will be $6,218.10 [$1,500/base + $4,718.10 (94.362 acres @ $50 per acre)]. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Sincerely, Jeremy F.

With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. * A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. * We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. * A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work.

The same is the case with Phase II of the development. Please clarify what this area includes. Response: Please note average lot size is more than the minimum requirement and cannot be accurately calculated as demonstrated above. Area shown in tabulation on sheet 1 is either actual lot area that has been computed or an approximation of lot area. Comment 9: Gross Density Tabulation. Please correct the gross density totals shown on the first page of the MDP. The density for Phase I should be 1.4 dwelling units per acre, and for Phase II it.should be 4.20 dwelling units per acre.

The private road system that extends from the public right-of-way along Nassau Drive throughout Section II of the development as delineated on the revised MDP has been designed to enhance and provide a traffic circulation loop. In accordance to Frederick County Zoning Ordinance Code Section 144-24.C(2)(b). As stated: (b) Wtren such lots do not abrrt public streets, they shall abut private roads, parking lots or access easements. The length and extent of private roads, driveways and parking aisles providing access to lots shall be rnirtirnized, and public streets shall be provided in larger subdivisions when substantial distances are involved. Individual lots shall be more than 500 feet front a state -maintained road, as measured front the public street along the access route. The Planning Commission may allow lots to be located as notch as 800 feet from a state -maintained road incases where entranced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. The length of the private roads as shown on the revised MDP measured from the public right-of-way along Nassau Drive ranged from less than 500' to a maximum of 1320' (loop condition). Therefore, we respectfully request your support and approval for this waiver to the Planning Commission to grant us the 800' maximum length (1600' loop condition) allowed per approval of this request. Thank you for your time and consideration with this matter. Should you have any question please call at your earliest convenience. Please forward this application to the Planning Commission at the next available meeting.

MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 2 May 3, 2004 REVIEW EVALUATIONS: Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The amended Master Development Plan for this property appears to have a measurable impact on Channing Drive, Routes 659 and 656, the VDOT facilities which would provide access to the property. Based on our conversation on September 22, 2003 the number of trips per day for Section II is being doubled from approximately 900 trips per day to 1800 trips per day. With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work. Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended. Sanitation Authority: Approved - amended County Inspections: No comment required at this time. Shall comment at the time of subdivision plan. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. A comprehensive review shall be performed at the time of subdivision plan approval. Geographic Information Systems: Braxton Place & Nassau Dr. previously approved & reserved for use in system. Rebecca Dr. & Channing Dr. are extensions to existing roads. Suffixes are appropriate & correct. Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation: The revised Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision appears to meet the county open space and recreational unit requirements. However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain area and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be ten feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of ten feet in width. The potential for the trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided. Winchester Regional Airport: The above referenced proposal has been reviewed and it appears that the proposed site plan will not have an impact on operations at the Winchester Regional Airport as the proposed site falls outside of the airport's Part 77 surface. No special requirements or conditions are requested on behalf of the Winchester Regional Airport Authority. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe operations of the Winchester Regional Airport. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 3 May 3, 2004 Frederick County Public Schools: No additional comments at this time. Planning & Zoning_ A) Master Development Plan Requirement A master development plan is required for most subdivisions and development of property in Frederick County. Before a master development plan can be approved, it must be reviewed by the Planning Commission, Board of Supervisors and all relevant review agencies. Approval may only be granted if the master development plan conforms to all requirements of the Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. The purpose of the master development plan is to promote orderly and planned development of property within Frederick County that suits the characteristics of the land, is harmonious with adjoining properly and is in the best interest of the general public. B) Location The 94.362 acres of the subject property are located within the Red Bud Magisterial District and are south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Abrams Creek, past the Carlisle Heights Subdivision. Mill Race Estates and Valley Mill Estates are located north of the property across from Valley Mill Road (Route 659). The parcel of land will be accessible via Chaining Drive, which will bisect the parcel in the center. The property is located north of the Lynnehaven and Giles (now Manning & Ross) portions of the Charming Drive Subdivision. C) Site History The original Zoning Map for Frederick County (U.S.G.S. Shephenson, VA Quadrangle) identified this land as being zoned A-2 (Agricultural General) District. On August 26,1987 the property was rezoned to the RP (Residential Performance) District under rezoning application #017-87 of Eastern Frederick Development Company. The original master development plan for this property, previously referred to as Fieldstone Heights, was approved on February 16, 1988 for 215 single-family dwellings. On February 26, 1996 the master development plan was revised to accommodate 169 single-family detached traditional dwellings (I5, 000 square foot minimum without curb & gutter). Then on February 28, 2002, the master development plan was revised again; this time to accommodate 153 single- family detached urban lots (12, 000 square foot minimum with curb & gutter). D) Intended Use The parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two sections. Section 1 will be located west of Channing Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots. Section 2 will be located east of Channing Drive and consist of 225 townhouses. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 4 May 3, 2004 Planning Staff Comment. The applicant should clarify the proposed phasing of these sections and their relationship to the construction of Channing Drive. E) Site Suitability Land Use Compatibility: The site of the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision is located at the fringe between suburban residential and rural residential development. Single-family residential land uses prevail in the area, although a limited number of agricultural land uses, are in the area as well. Historic Resources: The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey does not identify any potentially significant historic resources on the site of the proposed master development plan. Furthermore, according to the National Park Service's Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the subject site is not included in any battlefield study area and does not contain any core battlefield resources. Environment: The subject site contains 13.92 acres of steep slopes and 10.24 acres of floodplain. Both the areas of steep slope and floodplain are located in the front third of the parcel. A total of 3.48 acres (25%) of steep slopes and .3 acres of floodplain are proposed to be disturbed by this development. No disturbance of the riparian buffers around Abrams Creek shall be permitted except for the construction of roads (Channing Drive), public utilities, and public facilities. The General Soil Map of the Soil Survey of Frederick County, Virginia indicates that the soils comprising the subject parcels fall under the Weikert-Berk soil association, which are common soil types found east of Interstate 81. It is noted that these soil types present some limitations to site development due to a seasonal high water table, depth to bedrock, and slope. The management of such characteristics must be demonstrated through the site development process. Transportation: The Comprehensive Policy Plan classifies Valley Mill Road (Route 659) as a major collector road. As part of the proposed development, a new maj or collector road shall be constructed from Valley Mill Road (Route 659) to the southern limits of the development, which will ultimately link Valley Mill Road (Route 659) with Senseny Road (Route 657). This new road is a component of the Eastern Road Plan, found on page 7-15 of the Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan. The Eastern Road Plan also calls for the eventual improvement of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Senseny Road (Route 657). Nassau Drive is a proposed public road which will be constructed off of Channing Drive for access to both the east and west portions of the property. All roads within Section 1 (single- family detached urban dwellings) will be public. Access to Section 2 (townhouses) shall be provided via a private road network connected to Nassau Drive. Per Section 144-24, of the MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 5 May 3, 2004 Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance, individual lots accessed by private streets shall be located within 500 feet of a public road. The applicant is seeking approval from the Planning Commission for a distance approximately 624 feet from a public road. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the ability to allow lots to be located as much as 800 feet from a state road in cases where enhanced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. Planning Staf Note: The Planning Commission denied the applicant's requestfor a lot access distance waiver during their meeting on April 7, 2004. Therefore, the proposed MDP will need to be revised prior to administrative approval so that all lots are within 500 feet of a state road The proposed MDP's failure to provide a public road connection with the adjoining parcel to the east is detrimental for achieving the best coordinated future transportation networkfor the area. Furthermore, owners ofproperties to the east have contacted staff with development concepts for their properties. These owner's development plans will be significantly hampered without a connection to Channing Drive, through Fieldstone. Comprehensive Policy Plan: The 94.362-acre parcel is zoned RP (Residential Performance) and is within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the SWSA (Sewer and Water Service Area). The property is not located within the study area of any small area land use plan. It is located just outside of the Route 7 East Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1994. The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. Density: The overall gross residential density proposed with this master development plan is 3.05 units per acre. This breaks down to a 1.40 gross density in Section 1 and a 4.56 gross density in Section 2. The maximum gross density for a parcel of this size is 5.5 dwelling units per acre. Recreational Facilities, Landscaping, Buffers, and Open Space The revised master development plan for the Fieldstone Subdivision shall contain at least 28.309 acres (30%) of open space; of which, slightly more than 50% shall be located outside of areas of steep slopes. For the proposed townhouses, one recreational unit shall also be provided for every 30 dwelling units. This calculates to a total of eight required recreational units. Landscaping shall be provided for all proposed parking lots and as required by Section 165-36, Landscaping, of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. A residential separation buffer is required between the proposed townhouses and the southern property line. In addition to this buffer, a road efficiency buffer is required between the proposed residential uses and Channing Drive. A six foot wide asphalt trail will be provided within the inactive portion of the road efficiency buffer along Channing Drive. The proposed trail is shown on the west side of Channing Drive, from the southern limits of the parcel, to the rear of the proposed townhouse development. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 6 May 3, 2004 Planning Staff Comment: Staffsuggests that the proposed trail be extended to Abrams Creek to allow for the possibility of connecting it with a nature trail which could emerge in the future alongAbrams Creek. If amenable, the applicant could also provide assurances for an easement alongAbrams Creek to allow Frederick County to use the property for a public trail if determined appropriate in the future. PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION OF 04/07/04 MEETING: The owners of the 85-acre Valley Mill Farm, LLC at 1494 Valley Mill Road expressed concerns about traffic, the impacts of additional sediment in Abrams Creek, the loss of historic integrity of their property, the impact on their quality of life, and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge. Valley Mill Farm owners offered to dedicate a portion of the northern part of their property for access, rather than channeling traffic to the one -lane bridge. Four other citizens came forward to speak in opposition to the townhouse development; their concerns included traffic and safety issues, and overcrowded schools. The owner of the Goldie's LC tract to the east commented that he would like to see Nassau Drive stubbed at the eastern property line of the Fieldstone tract. Without this connection he was concerned that his property may be considered landlocked for future development. A VDOT representative verified that a revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and VDOT was satisfied because the applicant had agreed to install three turn lanes, in addition to entering into a signalization agreement where Channing Drive and Nassau intersect. Commission members questioned VDOT's satisfaction with the TIA in light of the all of the traffic that would be utilizing the one -lane bridge to get to Rt. 7. VDOT predicted the traffic would travel the route of least resistance, and go to Greenwood and down to Rt. 7, rather than attempting to traverse the bridge. Members of the Planning Staff commented that there has been considerable discussion regarding subsequent development to the east. They commented on the overall transportation benefit of staff s recommendation for a continuation of Nassau to the east, possibly creating a connection to Rt. 7 that would skip beyond the one -lane bridge. Members of the Planning Commission were concerned about the increase in density from previous master development plans for this parcel, especially in light of the transportation problems. They pointed out the possibility of potential acceptable transportation solutions, although none had been presented for the Commission's consideration. By a majority vote, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the master development plan, as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven In addition, a motion and second was made to recommend denial of the waiver request. This was also MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 7 May 3, 2004 passed by a majority vote as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven (Please note: Commissioners Triplett, Kriz, Watt, and Straub were absent from the meeting.) BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SUMMARY & ACTION OF 05/12/04 MEETING: During the May 5, 2004 Board of Supervisors Meeting the Board forwarded the MDP application for Fieldstone Subdivision back to the Planning Commission for review. The Board made this decision to give the applicant another opportunity to address the density and transportation concerns that the Planning Commission expressed during their review on April 7, 2004. STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 06/02/04 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: The preliminary MDP for Fieldstone Subdivision is a proposal to revise the currently approved MDP for 153 single family detached urban dwellings to allow 63 single family detached urban dwellings plus 225 townhouses. Once the plan is revised to reflect the Planning Commission's denial of the lot access waiver, the Master Development Plan would be consistent with the technical requirements of Article XVII, Master Development Plan, of the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant has chosen not to extend the proposed state road to the property line to allow for possible future development; nor has the applicant made any other changes to the plan since the Planning Commission recommended denial of it on April 7, 2004. The failure to extend Nassau Drive to the eastern property line may impact the development potential of the properties to the east; as well as, not provide for an improved future transportation network to serve this area of Frederick County. A summary of concerns and comments from the Planning Commission to the Board o Supervisors concerning this master development plan application would be appropriate. ,. J�, � 'fi.

REVIEW EVALUATIONS: J MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 2 March 18, 2004 Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The amended Master Development Plan for this property appears to have a measurable impact on Channing Drive, Routes 659 and 656, the VDOT facilities which would provide access to the property. Based on our conversation on September 22, 2003 the number of trips per day for Section H is being doubled from approximately 900 trips per day to 1800 trips per day. With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work. Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended. Sanitation Authority: Approved - amended County Inspections: No comment required at this time. Shall comment at the time of subdivision plan. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. A comprehensive review shall be performed at the time of subdivision plan approval. Geographic Information Systems: Braxton Place & Nassau Dr. previously approved & reserved for use in system. Rebecca Dr. & Channing Dr. are extensions to existing roads. Suffixes are appropriate & correct. Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation: The revised Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision appears to meet the county open space and recreational unit requirements. However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain area and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be ten feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of ten feet in width. The potential for the trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided. Winchester Regional Airport: The above referenced proposal has been reviewed and it appears that the proposed site plan will not have an impact on operations at the Winchester Regional Airport as the proposed site falls outside of the airport's Part 77 surface. No special requirements or conditions are requested on behalf of the Winchester Regional Airport Authority. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe operations of the Winchester Regional Airport. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 3 March 18, 2004 Frederick Counly Public Schools: No additional comments at this time. Planning & Zoning: A) Master Development Plan Requirement A master development plan is required for most subdivisions and development of property in Frederick County. Before a master development plan can be approved, it must be reviewed by the Planning Commission, Board of Supervisors and all relevant review agencies. Approval may only be granted if the master development plan conforms to all requirements of the- Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. The purpose of the master development plan is to promote orderly and planned development of property within Frederick County that suits the characteristics of the land, is harmonious with adjoining property and is in the best interest of the general public. B) Location The 94.362 acres of the subject property are located within the Red Bud Magisterial District and are south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Abrams Creek, past the Carlisle Heights Subdivision. Mill Race Estates and Valley Mill Estates are located north of the property across from Valley Mill Road (Route 659). The parcel of land will be accessible via Channing Drive, which will bisect the parcel in the center. The property is located north of the Lynnehaven and Giles (now Manning & Ross) portions of the Channing Drive Subdivision. C) Site History The original Zoning Map for Frederick County (U.S.G.S. Shephenson, VA Quadrangle) identified this land as being zoned A-2 (Agricultural General) District. On August 26,1987 the property was rezoned to the RP (Residential Performance) District under rezoning application #017-87 of Eastern Frederick Development Company. The original master development plan for this property, previously referred to as Fieldstone Heights, was approved on February 16, 1988 for 215 single-family dwellings. On February 26, 1996 the master development plan was revised to accommodate 169 single-family detached traditional dwellings (15, 000 square foot minimum without curb & gutter). Then on February 28, 2002, the master development plan was revised again; this time to accommodate 153 single- family detached urban lots (12, 000 square foot minimum with curb & gutter). D) Intended Use The parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two sections. Section 1 will be located west of Channing Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots. Section 2 will be located east of Channing Drive and consist of 225 townhouses. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 4 March 18, 2004 Planning Staff Comment: The applicant should clarify the proposed phasing of these sections and their relationship to the construction of Channing Drive. E) Site Suitability Land Use Compatibility: The site of the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision is located at the fringe between suburban residential and rural residential development. Single-family residential land uses prevail in the area, although a limited number of agricultural land uses are in the area as well. Historic Resources: The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey does not identify any potentially significant historic resources on the site of the proposed master development plan. Furthermore, according to the National Park Service's Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Vallty of Virginia, the subject site is not included in any battlefield study area and does not contain any core battlefield resources. Environment: The subject site contains 13.92 acres of steep slopes and 10.24 acres of floodplain. Both the areas of steep slope and floodplain are located in the front third of the parcel. A total of 3.48 acres (25%) of steep slopes and .3 acres of floodplain are proposed to be disturbed by this development. No disturbance of the riparian buffers around Abrams Creek shall be permitted except for the construction of roads (Channing Drive), public utilities, and public facilities. The General Soil Map of the Soil Survey of Frederick Col , , Virginia indicates that the soils comprising the subject parcels fall under the Weikert-Berk soil association, which are common soil types found east of Interstate 81. It is noted that these soil types present some limitations to site development due to a seasonal high water table, depth to bedrock, and slope. The management of such characteristics must be demonstrated through the site development process. Transportation: The Comprehensive Policy Plan classifies Valley Mill Road (Route 659) as a major collector road. As part of the proposed development, anew major collector road shall be constructed from Valley Mill Road (Route 659) to the southern limits of the development, which will ultimately link Valley Mill Road (Route 659) with Senseny Road (Route 657). This new road is a component of the Eastern Road Plan, found on page 7-15 of the Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan. The Eastern Road Plan also calls for the eventual improvement of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Senseny Road (Route 657). Nassau Drive is a public road which will be constructed off of Channing Drive for access to both the east and west portions of the property. All roads within Section 1 (single-family detached MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 5 March 18, 2004 Waiver urban dwellings) will be public. Access to Section 2 (townhouses) shall be provided via a private road network connected to Nassau Drive. Per Section 144-24, of the Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance, individual lots accessed by private streets shall. be located within 500 feet of a public road. The applicant is seeking approval from the Planning Commission for a distance approximately 624 feet from a public road. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the ability to allow lots to be located as much as 800 feet from a state road in cases where enhanced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. Comprehensive Policy Plan: The 94.362-acre parcel is zoned RP (Residential Performance) and is within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the SWSA (Sewer and Water Service Area). The property is not located within the study area of any small area land use plan. It is located just outside of the Route 7 East Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1994. The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. Density: The overall gross residential density proposed with this master development plan is 3.05 units per acre. This breaks down to a 1.40 gross density in Section 1 and a 4.56 gross density in Section 2. The maximum gross density for a parcel of this size is 5.5 dwelling units per acre. Recreational Facilities, Landscaping, Buffers, and Open Space The revised master development plan for the Fieldstone Subdivision shall contain at least 28.309 acres (30%) of open space; of which, slightly more than 50% shall be located outside of areas of steep slopes. ,For the proposed townhouses, one recreational unit shall also be provided for every 30 dwelling units. This calculates to a total of eight required recreational units. Landscaping shall be provided for all proposed parking lots and as required by Section 165-36, Landscaping, of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. A residential separation buffer is required between the proposed townhouses and the southern property line. In addition to this buffer, a road efficiency buffer is required between the proposed residential uses and Channing Drive. A six foot wide asphalt trail will be provided within the inactive portion of the road efficiency buffer along Channing Drive. The proposed trail is shown on the west side of Channing Drive, from the southern limits of the parcel, to the rear of the proposed townhouse development. Planning Staff Comment: Staff suggests that the proposed trail be extended to Abrams Creek to allow for the possibility of connecting it with a nature trail which could emerge in the future alongAbrarns Creek. If amenable, the applicant could also provide assurances for an easement along Abrams Creek to allow Frederick County to use the property for a public trail if determined appropriate in the future. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 6 March 18, 2004 STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 04/07/04 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: This Master Development Plan is consistent with the requirements of Article XVII, Master Development Plan, of the Zoning Ordinance. All of the issues identified by staff, as well as those issues brought forth by the Planning Commission, should be appropriately addressed prior to a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. A summary of concerns and comments from the Planning Commission to the Board of Supervisors concerning this master development plan application would be appropriate. It would also be appropriate for the Planning Commission to either approve or deny the applicant's request to allow individual lots, accessed by private streets, to exceed the 500 foot distance from public streets. �»- �`• i a ky` �T , I a ',, ...- ,•Twt ® t�t,}'� .rK *,J-, �'�T .�r,, .ryc"r} stj >' m,.�.,..�i a ;.'.� tit •., `. ..,t ... - , '-rpm " i,.;i t��jlFs1 o s4E~t r';•�, 1 "� as i,t i', t l�f: i ''f L . � 04" �i1M1 (' i �:}.:,-+t,}A� I' -aM;`' + �i • t 1 '„akf' � ��_ � •t 3 }.in'�.��J{ T.

Camp, Planner II This report is prepared by the Frederick County Planning Staff to provide information to the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors to assist in the review of this application. It may also be useful to others interested in this zoning matter. Reviewed Action Planning Commission: 04/07/04 Pending Board of Supervisors: 04/28/04 Pending LOCATION: The property is located south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and east of Carlisle Heights Subdivision.

REVIEW EVALUATIONS: MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 2 March 18, 2004 Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The amended Master Development Plan for this property appears to have a measurable impact on Channing Drive, Routes 659 and 656, the VDOT facilities which would provide access to the property. Based on our conversation on September 22, 2003 the number of trips per day for Section II is being doubled from approximately 900 trips per day to 1800 trips per day. With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work. Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended. Sanitation Authority: Approved - amended Coun , Inspections: No comment required at this time. Shall comment at the time of subdivision plan. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. A comprehensive review shall be performed at the time of subdivision plan approval. Geographic Information Systems: Braxton Place & Nassau Dr. previously approved & reserved for use in system. Rebecca Dr. & Channing Dr. are extensions to existing roads. Suffixes are appropriate & correct. Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation: The revised Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision appears to meet the county open space and recreational unit requirements. However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain area and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be ten feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of ten feet in width. The potential for the trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided. I Winchester Regional Airport: The above referenced proposal has been reviewed and it appears that the proposed site plan will not have an impact on operations at the Winchester Regional Airport as the proposed site falls outside of the airport's Part 77 surface. No special requirements or conditions are requested on behalf of the Winchester Regional Airport Authority. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe operations of the Winchester Regional Airport. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 5 March 18, 2004 Waiver urban dwellings) will be public. Access to Section 2 (townhouses) shall be provided via a private road network connected to Nassau Drive. Per Section 144-24, of the Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance, individual lots accessed by private streets shall be located within 500 feet of a public road. The applicant is seeking approval from the Planning Commission for a distance approximately 624 feet from a public road. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the ability to allow lots to be located as much as 800 feet from a state road in cases where enhanced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. Comprehensive Policy Plan: The 94.362-acre parcel is zoned RP (Residential Performance) and is within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the SWSA (Sewer and Water Service Area). The property is not located within the study area of any small area land use plan. It is located just outside of the Route 7 East Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1994. The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. Density: The overall gross residential density proposed with this master development plan is 3.05 units per acre. This breaks down to a 1.40 gross density in Section 1 and a 4.56 gross density in Section 2. The maximum gross density for a parcel of this size is 5.5 dwelling units per acre. Recreational Facilities, Landscaping, Suffers, and Open Space The revised master development plan for the Fieldstone Subdivision shall contain at least 28.309 acres (30%) of open space; of which, slightly more than 50% shall be located outside of areas of steep slopes. For the proposed townhouses, one recreational unit shall also be provided for every 30 dwelling units. This calculates to a total of eight required recreational units. Landscaping shall be provided for all proposed parking lots and as required by Section 165-36, Landscaping, of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. A residential separation buffer is required between the proposed townhouses and the southern property line. In addition to this buffer, a road efficiency buffer is required between the proposed residential uses and Channing Drive. A six foot wide asphalt trail will be provided within the inactive portion of the road efficiency buffer along Channing Drive. The proposed trail is shown on the west side of Channing Drive, from the southern limits of the parcel, to the rear of the proposed townhouse development. Planning Staff Comment: Staff suggests that the proposed trail be extended to Abrams Creek to allow for the possibility of connecting it with a nature trail which could emerge in the future along Abrams Creek. If amenable, the applicant could also provide assurances for an easement along Abrams Creek to allow Frederick County to use the property for a public trail if determined appropriate in the future. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 6 March 18, 2004 STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 04/07/04 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: This Master Development Plan is consistent with the requirements of Article XVH, Master Development Plan, of the Zoning Ordinance. All of the issues identified by staff, as well as those issues brought forth by the Planning Commission, should be appropriately addressed prior to a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors. A summary of concerns and comments from the Planning Commission to the Board of Supervisors concerning this master development plan application would be appropriate. It would also be appropriate for the Planning Commission to either approve or deny the applicant's request to allow individual lots, accessed by private streets, to exceed the 500 foot distance from public streets. t 1�•rF,F'PVy.

MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 2 May 3, 2004 REVIEW EVALUATIONS: Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The amended Master Development Plan for this property appears to have a measurable impact on Channing Drive, Routes 659 and 656, the VDOT facilities which would provide access to the property. Based on our conversation on September 22, 2003 the number of trips per day for Section II is being doubled from approximately 900 trips per day to 1800 trips per day. With this significant increase in traffic, we will be requiring a dedicated left turn from Channing Drive onto Highcliff Drive. A revised Traffic Impact Analysis must be submitted. We will also be requiring a traffic signal agreement at the same intersection. A right turn lane shall be required from Channing Drive heading west onto Highcliff Drive. Before making any final comments, this office will require a complete set of site plans, drainage calculations and traffic flow data from the I.T.E. Trip Generation 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. Prior to construction on the State's right-of-way the developer will need to apply to this office for issuance of appropriate permits to cover said work. Fire Marshal: Plan approval recommended. Sanitation Authority: Approved - amended County Inspections: No comment required at this time. Shall comment at the time of subdivision plan. Public Works: We offer no comments at this time. A comprehensive review shall be performed at the time of subdivision plan approval. Geographic Information Systems: Braxton Place & Nassau Dr. previously approved & reserved for use in system. Rebecca Dr. & Channing Dr. are extensions to existing roads. Suffixes are appropriate & correct. Frederick County Department of Parks and Recreation: The revised Master Development Plan for Fieldstone Subdivision appears to meet the county open space and recreational unit requirements. However, a high percentage of the allowable open space provided appears to be in flood plain area and not easily accessible. Staff also recommends that the proposed trail be ten feet in width and meet the minimum standards for trail construction used by the county. Staff has based this recommendation on Federal Highway Administration and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials guidelines which state that two directional linear walking/bike trails should be a minimum of ten feet in width. The potential for the trail to connect to adjacent future development should also be provided. Winchester Regional Airport: The above referenced proposal has been reviewed and it appears that the proposed site plan will not have an impact on operations at the Winchester Regional Airport as the proposed site falls outside of the airport's Part 77 surface. No special requirements or conditions are requested on behalf of the Winchester Regional Airport Authority. Thank you for your cooperation and consideration in the continuing safe operations of the Winchester Regional Airport. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 3 May 3, 2004 Frederick County Public Schools: No additional comments at this time. Planning & Zoning_ A) Master Development Plan Requirement A master development plan is required for most subdivisions and development of property in Frederick County. Before a master development plan can be approved, it must be reviewed by the Planning Commission, Board of Supervisors and all relevant review agencies. Approval may only be granted if the master development plan conforms to all requirements of the Frederick County Zoning and Subdivision Ordinances. The purpose of the master development plan is to promote orderly and planned development of property within Frederick County that suits the characteristics of the land, is harmonious with adjoining property and is in the best interest of the general public. B) Location The 94.362 acres of the subject property are located within the Red Bud Magisterial District and are south of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Abrams Creek, past the Carlisle Heights Subdivision. Mill Race Estates and Valley Mill Estates are located north of the property across from Valley Mill Road (Route 659). The parcel of land will be accessible via Charming Drive, which will bisect the parcel in the center. The property is located north of the Lynnehaven and Giles (now Manning & Ross) portions of the Channing Drive Subdivision. C) Site History The original Zoning Map for Frederick County (U.S.G.S. Shephenson, VA Quadrangle) identified this land as being zoned A-2 (Agricultural General) District. On August 26,1987 the property was rezoned to the RP (Residential Performance) District under rezoning application #017-87 of Eastern Frederick Development Company. The original master development plan for this property, previously referred to as Fieldstone Heights, was approved on February 16, 1988 for 215 single-family dwellings. On February 26, 1996 the master development plan was revised to accommodate 169 single-family detached traditional dwellings (15, 000 square foot minimum without curb & gutter). Then on February 28, 2002, the master development plan was revised again; this time to accommodate 153 single- family detached urban lots (12, 000 square foot minimum with curb & gutter). D) Intended Use The parcel of land is proposed to be developed in two sections. Section 1 will be located west of Charming Drive and consist of 63 single-family detached urban lots. Section 2 will be located east of Channing Drive and consist of 225 townhouses. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 4 May 3, 2004 Planning Staff Comment: The applicant should clarify theproposedphasing of these sections and their relationship to the construction of Channing Drive. E) Site Suitability Land Use Compatibility: The site of the proposed Fieldstone Subdivision is located at the fringe between suburban residential and rural residential development. Single-family residential land uses prevail in the area, although a limited number of agricultural land uses are in the area as well. Historic Resources: The Frederick County Rural Landmarks Survey does not identify any potentially significant historic resources on the site of the proposed master development plan. Furthermore, according to the National Park Service's Study of Civil War Sites in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the subject site is not included in any battlefield study area and does not contain any core battlefield resources. Environment: The subject site contains 13.92 acres of steep slopes and 10.24 acres of floodplain. Both the areas of steep slope and floodplain are located in the front third of the parcel. A total of 3.48 acres (25%) of steep slopes and .3 acres of floodplain are proposed to be disturbed by this development. No disturbance of the riparian buffers around Abrams Creek shall be permitted except for the construction of roads (Channing Drive), public utilities, and public facilities. The General Soil Map of the Soil Survey of Frederick County, Virginia indicates that the soils comprising the subject parcels fall under the Weikert-Berk soil association, which are common soil types found east of Interstate 81. It is noted that these soil types present some limitations to site development due to a seasonal high water table, depth to bedrock, and slope. The management of such characteristics must be demonstrated through the site development process. Transportation: The Comprehensive Policy Plan classifies Valley Mill Road (Route 659) as a major collector road. As part of the proposed development, a new maj or collector road shall be constructed from Valley Mill Road (Route 659) to the southern limits of the development, which will ultimately link Valley Mill Road (Route 659) with Senseny Road (Route 657). This new road is a component of the Eastern Road Plan, found on page 7-15 of the Frederick County Comprehensive Policy Plan. The Eastern Road Plan also calls for the eventual improvement of Valley Mill Road (Route 659) and Senseny Road (Route 657). Nassau Drive is a proposed public road which will be constructed off of Channing Drive for access to both the east and west portions of the property. All roads within Section 1 (single- family detached urban dwellings) will be public. Access to Section 2 (townhouses) shall be provided via a private road network connected to Nassau Drive. Per Section 144-24, of the MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 5 May 3, 2004 Frederick County Subdivision Ordinance, individual lots accessed by private streets shall be located within 500 feet of a public road. The applicant is seeking approval from the Planning Commission for a distance approximately 624 feet from a public road. The Subdivision Ordinance gives the Planning Commission the ability to allow lots to be located as much as 800 feet from a state road in cases where enhanced circulation is provided with a driveway loop. PlanningStaffNote: The Planning Commission denied the applicant's requestfor a lot access distance waiver during their meeting on April 7, 2004. Therefore, the proposed MDP will need to be revised prior to administrative approval so that all lots are within 500 feet of a state road The proposed MDP's failure to provide a public road connection with the adjoining parcel to the east is detrimental for achieving the best coordinated future transportation network for the area. Furthermore, owners of properties to the east have contacted staff with development concepts for their properties. These owner's development plans will be significantly hampered without a connection to Channing Drive, through Fieldstone. Comprehensive Policy Plan: The 94.362-acre parcel is zoned RP (Residential Performance) and is within the UDA (Urban Development Area) and the SWSA (Sewer and Water Service Area). The property is not located within the study area of any small area land use plan. It is located just outside of the Route 7 East Corridor Plan, which was adopted by the Board of Supervisors in 1994. The Comprehensive Policy Plan states that suburban residential development must occur within the UDA. Density: The overall gross residential density proposed with this master development plan is 3.05 units per acre. This breaks down to a 1.40 gross density in Section 1 and a 4.56 gross density in Section 2. The maximum gross density for a parcel of this size is 5.5 dwelling units per acre. Recreational Facilities, Landscaping, Buffers, and Open Space The revised master development plan for the Fieldstone Subdivision shall contain at least 28.309 acres (30%) of open space; of which, slightly more than 50% shall be located outside of areas of steep slopes. For the proposed townhouses, one recreational unit shall also be provided for every 30 dwelling units. This calculates to a total of eight required recreational units. Landscaping shall be provided for all proposed parking lots and as required by Section 165-36, Landscaping, of the Frederick County Zoning Ordinance. A residential separation buffer is required between the proposed townhouses and the southern property line. In addition to this buffer, a road efficiency buffer is required between the proposed residential uses and Channing Drive. A six foot wide asphalt trail will be provided within the inactive portion of the road efficiency buffer along Charming Drive. The proposed trail is shown on the west side of Channing Drive, from the southern limits of the parcel, to the rear of the proposed townhouse development. MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 6 May 3, 2004 Planning Staff Comment. Staffsuggests that the proposed trail be extended to Abrams Creek to allow for the possibility of connecting it with a nature trail which could emerge in the future along Abrams Creek. If amenable, the applicant could also provide assurances for an easement alongAbrams Creek to allow Frederick County to use the property for a public trail if determined appropriate in the future. PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION OF 04/07/04 MEETING: The owners of the 85-acre Valley Mill Farm, LLC at 1494 Valley Mill Road expressed concerns about traffic, the impacts of additional sediment in Abrams Creek, the loss of historic integrity of their property, the impact on their quality of life, and the incapacity of the one -lane bridge. Valley Mill Farm owners offered to dedicate a portion of the northern part of their property for access, rather than channeling traffic to the one -lane bridge. Four other citizens came forward to speak in opposition to the townhouse development; their concerns included traffic and safety issues, and overcrowded schools. The owner of the Goldie's LC tract to the east commented that he would like to see Nassau Drive stubbed at the eastern property line of the Fieldstone tract. Without this connection he was concerned that his property may be considered landlocked for future development. A VDOT representative verified that a revised traffic impact analysis (TIA) was submitted and VDOT was satisfied because the applicant had agreed to install three turn lanes, in addition to entering into a signalization agreement where Channing Drive and Nassau intersect. Commission members questioned VDOT's satisfaction with the TIA in light of the all of the traffic that would be utilizing the one -lane bridge to get to Rt. 7. VDOT predicted the traffic would travel the route of least resistance, and go to Greenwood and down to Rt. 7, rather than attempting to traverse the bridge. Members of the Planning Staff commented that there has been considerable discussion regarding subsequent development to the east. They commented on the overall transportation benefit of staff s recommendation for a continuation of Nassau to the east, possibly creating a connection to Rt. 7 that would skip beyond the one -lane bridge. Members of the Planning Commission were concerned about the increase in density from previous master development plans for this parcel, especially in light of the transportation problems. They pointed out the possibility of potential acceptable transportation solutions, although none had been presented for the Commission's consideration. By a majority vote, the Planning Commission recommended denial of the master development plan, as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven In addition, a motion and second was made to recommend denial of the waiver request. This was also MDP #03-04, Fieldstone Subdivision Page 7 May 3, 2004 passed by a majority vote as follows: YES (FOR DENIAL): Rosenberry, Fisher, Ours, Thomas, Light, Morris, Unger, Gochenour NO: DeHaven (Please note: Commissioners Triplett, Kriz, Watt, and Straub were absent from the meeting.) BOARD OF SUPERVISORS SUMMARY & ACTION OF 05/12/04 MEETING: During the May 5, 2004 Board of Supervisors Meeting the Board forwarded the MDP application for Fieldstone Subdivision back to the Planning Commission for review. The Board made this decision to give the applicant another opportunity to address the density and transportation concerns that the Planning Commission expressed during their review on April 7, 2004. STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR 06/02/04 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING: The preliminary MDP for Fieldstone Subdivision is a proposal to revise the currently approved MDP for 153 single family detached urban dwellings to allow 63 single family detached urban dwellings plus 225 townhouses. Once the plan is revised to reflect the Planning Commission's denial of the lot access waiver, the Master Development Plan would be consistent with the technical requirements of Article XVII, Master Development Plan, of the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant has chosen not to extend the proposed state road to the property line to allow for possible future development; nor has the applicant made any other changes to the plan since the Planning Commission recommended denial of it on April 7, 2004. The failure to extend Nassau Drive to the eastern property line may impact the development potential of the properties to the east; as well as, not provide for an improved future transportation network to serve this area of Frederick County. A summary of concerns and comments from the Planning Commission to the Board of Supervisors concerning this master development plan application would be appropriate.
