HomeMy WebLinkAbout07-25 Comment Response Letter - January 2026Comment List Madison 277 ** Multiple Planning Commision and LF Neighborhood concerns are the same or align with staff concerns, in these cases the concern is only listed in one location 12/15/2025 Staff Concerns Plan/Proffer Revisions 1 Rezoning is not fully consistent with Lake Frederick UDA regarading the mix of commercial vs. residential uses Land Bay #1 has been revised to remove residential uses . This will align Land Bay #1 exactly with the Comp. Plan (30 acres of MUCO). In addition, residential density has been lowered to 596 units . This is a significant reduction in residential density when compared to the initial submission (866 lots). This revision aligns the project exactly with the Comp Plan (4 units per ac. residential and 30 ac. of commercial). 2 Rezoning is not fully consistent with Lake Frederick UDA regarading the restriction to portions of the commercial area to "medical uses" Land Bay #1 has been separated into 2 sections (1A and 1B), Section 1B is now restricted to only medical uses allong with retail uses that serve medical uses . 3 Plan policy envisions residential uses as an accessory component of a neighborhood village commercial center, per proffer, up to 375 residences can be constructed prior to any commercial development Proffer has been revised to phase commercial development threshold as described in the previous proffers. Revised proffer allows up to 200 residential units prior to the development of 10,000 sf of commercial and up to a project total of 300 residential units prior to the development of a total of 20,000 sf of commerical. 4 The building materials included in the proffer statement do not fully commit to high quality building materials. The Plan envisioned "quality of construction" to match the existing Lake Frederick community Residential exhibit has been revised include examples from the Lake Frederick Neighborhood. Proffer has been revised to require multiple façade materials. 5 Physical improvements are preferred to cash contributions for traffic impacts. Justification should be provided if a proportional share of the improvements are being proposed. Proffer has been revised, Developer to install TIA recommended improvements at the White Oak/277 intersection. Planning Commissioner Concerns** Plan/Proffer Revisions 6 Building Height (Modification alllow age-restricted housing to be 60 ft in height) The design modification request for a height increase has been removed. 7 Overall Development Density (4 units per ac. per R-4 requirement) Residential density has been reduced to 4 units per ac. 8 More detailed phasing plan should be provided Phasing proffer has been revised to limit residential units to 150 units per year. 9 Overall traffic concerns on Rt. 277 With proposed revisions (reduction in residential uses), proposed connectivilty to the Lake Frederick Community, and limitation of Landbay 1B to medical uses, trips to and from Rt. 277 will be reduced when compared to the previsous proffers and GDP. 10 Would like to see drawings for medical uses Detailed plans are not available for the proposed development; however, examples of simliar medical buidlings constructed in other communities can be provided as an example of what is anticipated to be constructed. 11 Would like to see uses in the commercial area that compliment medical uses There are a variety of uses that we feel are complimentay to medical uses, such as skilled nursing or assisted living facilities that are allowed in B1 and B2 zoning categories. 12 Would like to see a chart that lists all concerns and how that have been addressed This document is intended to meet this request. 13 Request that design teams continue coordinating with staff Staff coordination has been and continues to be of high importance to the design team. Multiple meetings and calls have occurred since the first Planning Commission meeting. LF Neighborhood Concerns** Plan/Proffer Revisions 14 Would like to see buffers provided where proposed developemt is adjacent to Lake Frederick Although a buffer is not likely to be required by code because similar uses are proposed as Lake Frederick, a proffer has been added to provide a 25' buffer in Landbay #3 adjacent to the Lake Frederick development (location depicted on revised GDP). Existing woodlands shall remain within the 25' buffer , with limited disturbance permitted for the installation of utility and stormwater infrastructure. 15 Would like to see more details of what is being proposed Detailed plans are not available as residential units mixes and commercial uses have not been determined at this point in the planning process. More detail will be provided at the MDP phase if rezoning is approved. 16 General stormwater concerns/ runoff There is a 35' code required stream buffer for the main drainage leading from the proposed development to Lake Frederick. For the length of steam, this buffer equals about 5 ac. of land. This buffer will be adhered to and in addition, approx. 37 acres of additional buffer area shall be provided to provide for even more stream protection. Over 7 times the required buffer will be provided along the primary Lake Frederick drainage leading from the project. In addition, all drainage from the proposed development shall meet local and state stormwater quantity and quaility requirements that regulate the detention of the 10 yr. design storm and filtering of runoff. 17 Concerned about public service/ school impacts Project is providing 100% of requested funding per CapIM.
