MS. PARKER, DO WE HAVE ANY REQUESTS TO DEFER ADDITIONS RELATIONS OR CHANGES TO THE ORDER OF PUBLIC HEARING? NO, SIR.
OUR FIRST ITEM IS A PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION ITEM.
AND AS SUCH, IT WILL NOT GO BEFORE THE BOARD AND IT WILL REQUIRE A MOTION A SECOND AND A VOTE IT'S IN DISTRICT ONE.
IT'S THE REQUEST BY NEW VENTURES, REAL ESTATE LLC, TO ALLOW THREE ACCESS DRIVES ON LOWERY ROAD, ROUTE SIX 51 FOR A PROPOSED SIX LOT
[5. Citizen Comment Period]
SUBDIVISION ON TAX MAP, 16 ONE[6. Requests to Defer, Additions, Deletions, or Changes to the Order of Public Hearings]
ZERO 54 ZERO.[1. District 1 - Request by New Ventures Real Estate LLC to allow three access]
MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION, I'M JAMIE SHERRY, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT.AS MS. PARKER SAID TONIGHT'S, UM, APPLICANT FIRST APPLICATION IS FROM NEW VENTURE REAL ESTATE, LLC.
THEY'RE REQUESTING A REVIEW OF A MINOR SUBDIVISION FOR AN ADDITIONAL ACCESS ON LOWERY ROAD.
THE APPLICATION, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS IN THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE COUNTY.
THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS AREA AS RURAL ENHANCEMENT AREA, THE PROPERTY IS ZONED A ONE AND THE REQUEST IS FOR A MINOR SUBDIVISION.
UM, THE ORDINANCE REQUIRES SUBDIVISIONS WITH MORE THAN TWO ACCESS DRIVES TO, UM, AN EXISTING PUBLIC ROAD BE REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
SHARED DRIVES ARE ONLY COUNT AS ONE ACCESS POINT, UM, VIA THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE.
AS MS. PARKER SAID, THIS DOES NOT REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING AND WILL NOT BE PRESENTED TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
SUBJECT PROPERTY IS APPROXIMATELY 99 ACRES AND HAS, UH, 2,800 FEET OF ROAD FRONTAGE.
THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A SIX LOT SUBDIVISION WITH THREE SHARE DRIVEWAYS AND, UM, YEAH, THREE SHARED
[00:05:01]
DRIVEWAYS.EACH DRIVEWAY ACTS, UH, SERVING TWO LOTS WITHOUT APPROVAL.
THE APPLICATION WOULD BE LIMITED TO TWO ACCESS DRIVES AND THE APPLICANT WOULD HAVE TO CONSTRUCT A PRIVATE ROAD, A PRIVATE ROAD.
UH, THE PRIVATE ROAD STANDARDS REQUIRE A 50 FOOT RIGHT OF WAY WITHIN THAT A 50 FOOT, UH, 20 FOOT, UH, ROAD THAT IS, UM, FOUR INCHES OF CRUSHED GRAVEL AND OR STONED UP AND A POSITIVE DRAIN SHOWING ON A ROAD PILE, WHICH MEANS IT WOULD HAVE TO HAVE AN ENGINEER STAMP ON IT, PROVIDING THAT.
SO, UM, THE COUNTY'S MAJOR THOROUGHFARE RECOMMENDS MINIMIZING ACCESS POINTS ON PUBLIC ROAD, A SINGLE APP, A SINGLE POINT OF ACCESS FROM LOWERY ROAD WITH A PRIVATE ROAD TO THE NEW LIGHTS WOULD BE MORE CONSISTENT WITH THE PA PLAN.
UH, WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED MEETS DRIVEWAY, SPACING REQUIREMENTS.
HOWEVER, I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
COULD YOU GO BACK TO THE ILLUSTRATION? YES.
YEAH, I GUESS I SHOULD LET HIM MOVE RIGHT THERE.
SO, UM, THIS IS, UM, CURRENTLY THE, THE, UM, THE PARCEL IS THE ONE BIG PIECE.
UM, AND SO, UM, THIS WOULD BE, OOPS.
THIS WOULD BE, UM, CONSIDERED, UH, UH, UH, UM, A PARENT TRACK, UH, SUBDIVISION.
THEY CAN DO THE SIX LOTS, UM, TWO OVER 20 AND THEN FOR SMALLER LOTS, WHICH WOULD HAVE TO BE THREE ACRES.
UM, SO INSTEAD OF DOING A PRIVATE RED THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THIS LOT, UM, THEY'RE PROPOSING TO THEM AND SEE IF I CAN GET IT.
YOU CAN SEE THE, UM, THERE'S A ACCESS POINT, A SHARED DRIVEWAY RIGHT THERE THAT WOULD ACCESS THOSE TWO.
THERE WOULD BE A SHARED DRIVEWAY THAT WOULD ACCESS THOSE TWO LOTS AND UP HERE.
UM, ACCESSING BOTH THOSE LOTS AND THAT'S LOWERY ROAD RIGHT THERE.
DID I ANSWER YOUR QUESTION? I'M SORRY.
SO WITHOUT APPROVAL THEY COULD USE, THEY COULD BUY RIGHT.
HAVE TWO SHARED ACCESS, BUT WE WILL BE ENFORCING THEM TO MAKE THE PRIVATE ROAD FOR THE THIRD ONE, IF THEY WANTED TO HAVE ALL SIX LOTS.
HAS THIS BEEN DONE SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE COUNTY? YES.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, UM, THE SAME APPLICANT WAS BEFORE, UM, THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND I BELIEVE IT WAS NOVEMBER, 2019 AND HAD THE SAME REQUEST.
AND, UM, IT WAS APPROVED AT THAT POINT IN TIME.
ARE THERE ANY SITE DISTANCE CONCERNS WITH THESE THREE ACCESS POINTS? WELL, THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS, I MEAN, UM, WE, WE WOULD PREFER THERE BEING, UM, YOU KNOW, THE SINGLE ACCESS POINT OR THAT, OR THE TWO.
UM, I DID ACTUALLY, UM, SHOW THIS TO OUR NEW TRANSPORTATION PLANNER AND ASKED HIM IF HE THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE ANY ISSUES WITH THE CURVE IN THE ROAD.
AND HE DID NOT ANTICIPATE ANY, UM, I, UH, CHECKED IT AND IT DOES MEET THE DRIVEWAY SPACING REQUIREMENTS THAT WOULD BE ALLOWED IF IT, IF YOU WERE JUST DOING ONE LOT, WE DOWN WOULD STILL HAVE TO APPROVE ANY OF THAT ANYWAY, WOULDN'T IT.
UM, SO, UM, I, I BELIEVE V DOT, UM, FOR JUST A RESIDENTIAL, UM, ENTRANCE, EVEN A SHARED ENTRANCE.
I THINK THE BAR IS PRETTY LOW AS TO WHAT THEY ACTUALLY REQUIRE, BUT THEY WOULD HAVE TO, THEY WOULD, THERE WOULD BE A BOND ISSUED AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO APPROVE IT IN THE END, THE, UH, THE DRIVEWAYS.
SO THE, OR THE, OR THE STATE ROACH I'M AFRAID.
I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT TIME.
SO YES, THE ANSWER IS YES, IT, YES, SIR.
IF IT WAS DONE ACCORDING TO THE WAY THE COUNTY PREFERRED IT, WHERE WOULD THE ROAD BE? THAT WOULD BE UP TO THE APPLICANT TO DESIGN IT.
I MEAN IT, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE I'VE SEEN OTHER VERSIONS OF, OF, UH, SIMILAR THINGS AND IT'S REALLY BETTER.
WELL, LESSON ONE, UM, PUT A, UM, EXCESS ON OR BETWEEN ONE PROPERTY AND MANY CROSS THE OTHERS IN ORDER TO GET THERE.
YOU COULDN'T DO IT WITH ONE EXCESS POINT.
UM, I MEAN THESE LOTS, I BELIEVE, UM, THIS MIGHT BE A QUESTION FOR THE APPLICANT, BUT THE, UM, THE LOTS THAT ARE CUT ARE BASED ON THE FRONTAGE ONTO, UM, ONTO LOWERY THAT THOSE 20 ACRES AND THOSE, AND, UH, UM, THE SMALLER ACRES, THEY CAN REALLY EXIST ANYWHERE ON THE LOT, AS LONG AS THEY HAVE PRIVATE ROAD ACCESS.
DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? NO, YET.
THIS IS THEY'VE, THEY'VE JUST, THEY'VE CUT THE LOTS UP THIS WAY BECAUSE OF USING THOSE ENTRANCES, RIGHT.
THAT'S THEIR, THAT'S THEIR PREFERRED.
AND, UM, AND THAT'S WHY THEY'RE ASKING FOR, UM, FOR, UM, THE APPROVAL.
SO, UM, THEY, THEY WOULD BE ALLOWED TO HAVE TWO ACCESS POINTS.
SO THAT 20 ACRES, I GUESS, WOULD BE FLUID, I GUESS, WHEREVER THEY WOULD WANT IT WITHIN THE, UM, THE PROPERTY, THEY COULD DO IT.
[00:10:01]
HAD A PRIVATE ROAD GOING UP THE MIDDLE, PERHAPS ONE SIDE WOULD BE THE 20 ACRES AND THE SMALLER LOTS WOULD BE ON THE OTHER.IT WOULD JUST BE A MATTER, WHATEVER FIT THE GEOGRAPHY.
AND THAT WOULD BE MOST LIKELY A SHARED ACCESS PLAN.
UM, IF THEY, AGAIN, IT DEPENDS IF THERE'S A, THERE'S A LOT OF, UH, OF MOVING.
I MEAN, IF THEY WERE GOING TO DO TWO, I MEAN, TECHNICALLY THEY COULD, UM, HAVE TWO SHARED ACCESSES, MEANING THAT A PRIVATE ROAD LEADING TO SOMETHING ELSE.
WHAT WAS APPROVED IN 2019 IT'S ON RIVER ROAD? UM, NO, I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE STREET.
DO YOU ALL REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE STREET? UH, I, I'M NOT SURE.
IS THE APPLICANT HERE? DO YOU REMEMBER, UH, YOUR 2019? I BELIEVE YOU WERE RIGHT FOR BURBERRY WEST IS WHAT HE SAID.
WOULD THE APPLICANT LIKE W WE, WE, WE DON'T NEED THAT.
THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S UP TO YOU MOTION.
THERE'S NO PUBLIC HEARING, BUT YOU'RE AT, YOU'RE WELCOME TO HEAR IT FROM WHOEVER YOU NEED TO HEAR FROM.
DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME? IT WOULD MAKE SENSE, MOTION AND MOVE.
DO WE APPROVE THE, UH, UH, UH, THE APPLICATION? UH, TO ME IT JUST DIDN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO DO IT ANY OTHER WAY.
IF THEY'RE GOING TO SUBDIVIDE DISTANCE TO SIX LABS, ALL OF WHICH HE HAD RULED FRONTAGE.
IT'S BEEN MOVED AND PROPERLY SECOND.
AYES HAVE OUR FIRST PUBLIC HEARING ITEM IS IN DISTRICT THREE, C
[1. District 3 - CU-1990-00012B - Application by Margaret and Richard Allison]
U 1990 ZERO ZERO ZERO 12 B APPLICATION BY MARGARET AND RICHARD, ALISON REQUESTING RENEWAL OF A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT.SEE YOU 1990 ZERO, ZERO ZERO 12 FOR VETERINARY SERVICES AND ANIMAL HOSPITAL ON 10.4 ACRES AT 2000 MAIDENS ROAD ON TAX MAP, 43 ONE ZERO EIGHT ZERO.
THE PROPERTY IS ZONED AGRICULTURAL LIMITED A TO THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT IS REQUIRED BY GOOCHLAND COUNTY'S ZONING ORDINANCE, SECTION 15, ONE 12, THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS AREA, A SINGLE FAMILY, RESIDENTIAL LOW DENSITY.
A SPARK LIVERS, QUICK COMMISSION TITLE CALL MY PRINCIPAL PLANNER.
AS MS. PARKER SAID, THIS IS A RENEWAL OF A CONDITIONS PERMIT THAT HAS HAD TWO PREVIOUS APPROVALS.
IT IS CENTRALLY LOCATED IN THE COUNTY.
IT'S ACTUALLY IN THE, IN THE KITCHEN COURTHOUSE VILLAGE.
UM, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND ALL THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE ZONED AGRICULTURALLY, UM, BEING ON THE EDGE OF THE COURTHOUSE FIELDS, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY, AND SOME OF THE ABIDING PROPERTIES THAT ARE, ARE ACTUALLY RECOMMENDED FOR SINGLE FAMILY, RESIDENTIAL LOW DENSITY.
AND IT HAS THAT SHOWS IN THE CONFERENCE OF PLAN THAT REFLECTS THE PARCELS THAT ARE WITHIN THE COURTHOUSE VILLAGE.
UM, OTHER, OTHER SURROUNDING PROPERTIES THAT ARE OUTSIDE THE VILLAGE HAVE A RURAL ENHANCEMENT AREAS.
IGNATION UM, LOOKING AT THE OF PHOTO, YOU SEE THE, THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY, AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF, UH, RURAL RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES ACROSS THE STREET.
AND IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THIS PROPERTY, THERE WAS A COMMITTEE MEETING HELD IN MARCH.
UM, NO CITIZENS WERE INTENDED.
MR. MYERS CLINIC COMMISSIONER MYERS WAS THERE.
UM, AND THERE WERE NO CONCERNS EXPRESSED AT THAT COMMUNITY MEETING.
THE KITCHEN ANIMAL CLINIC HAS BEEN IN OPERATION AT THIS LOCATION FOR ABOUT 30 YEARS.
UH, THE FIRST CDP TO PRACTICE VETERINARY MEDICINE AND OPERATE THE CLINIC WAS APPROVED IN 1990.
IN 2001, A CP WAS RENEWED OR EXTENDED, UM, WITH AN AMENDMENT TO ALLOW THEM AN ADDITIONAL 2000 SQUARE FOOT EXPANSION AND THE ANIMAL CLINIC OFFICE, A NUMBER OF SERVICES RELATED TO PET CARE FOR EVERYTHING FROM, FROM DENTAL AND DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING TO SURGERY AND SPAYING AND NEUTERING, AND ON A PRETTY WIDE VARIETY OF SERVICES, LOOKING AT THE CONDITIONS.
THERE'S A FEW CHANGES FROM THE LAST, UM, CP APPROVAL IN 2001, UH, THE FIRST SEAT, BECAUSE SHOULD, WOULD, UH, ALLOW THE VETERINARY SERVICE AND ANIMAL HOSPITAL TO BE OPERATED ON THE PROPERTY.
UH, THE SECOND CONDITION WOULD REQUIRE THEM TO, UM, UH, CHABAY ALL STATE AND COUNTY CODES.
THE THIRD ONE WOULD PROHIBIT ANY OVERNIGHT STAY OR, OR EXCUSE ME, IT WOULD PROHIBIT ANY ANIMALS.
THEY'RE THERE FOR OVERNIGHT STAY TO BE OUTDOORS OR REQUIRE ANY ANIMALS THERE OVERNIGHT TO BE, UM, HOUSED INDOORS THE FOURTH.
AND THIS WOULD ALLOW THEM AN ADDITIONAL EXPANSION TO, TO THE SITE IF THEY WERE INCLINED TO DO THAT, UM, SIZE WOULD, WOULD LIMIT THEM TO THE EXISTING SIGN ON THE PROPERTY.
UM, BUT WE'LL NOTE UNDER CP FIVE, UM, THERE,
[00:15:01]
THAT WAS THE, UM, THE EXPIRATION DATE.UH, THE APPLICANT DID ASK US TO CONSIDER NOT HAVING AN EXPIRATION DATE ON THE CUP CONSIDERING HOW LONG THEY'VE BEEN THERE AND THE FACT THAT THAT HAS NOT GENERATED ANY COMPLAINTS.
AND THIS IS NOT COMING TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION WITH AN EXPIRATION DATE RECOMMENDATION.
UM, NUMBER SIX, IF THEY DO ANY OUTDOOR LIGHTING, UM, THEY WOULD NEED TO OBTAIN A LIGHTING PLAN OF THE SEVENTH.
ONE WOULD LIMIT THEIR HOURS OF OPERATION FROM MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY FROM 7:30 AM TO 8:00 PM.
AND THAT THOSE THAT'S THE HOURS OF OPERATION THAT THEY WOULD BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
AND THE LAST CONDITION IS SORT OF OUR STANDARD TRANSFER LEASE IF THE PROPERTY IS SOLD.
AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION, PEPPA ANSWERING THIS WAS ORIGINALLY DONE IN 1990.
UM, I'M NOT AWARE OF ANY COMPLAINTS, NONE, NONE RECENTLY THE BUILDING EXISTING IS 2000 SQUARE FEET.
THE, UH, THE 2000 SQUARE FEET WHEN THEY GOT THEIR RENEWAL, IT ALLOWED THEM AN ADDITIONAL 2000 SQUARE FEET.
SO THE BUILDING IS LARGER THAN THAT.
UM, JUST WE'RE CARRYING THAT FORWARD.
IF THEY WANT TO EXPAND AGAIN, THEY WOULD BE ALLOWED ANOTHER EXPANSION UP TO 2000 SQUARE FEET.
WOULD THE AFRICAN LIKE TO SPEAK HELLO MR. CHAIRMAN AND, UH, COMMISSION MEMBERS.
I'M MARGARET WASHBURN, ALISON, AND, UM, MY HUSBAND AND I WE'RE THE, WE STARTED IT AND WE OPENED ACTUALLY MAY OF 91 CAME TO YOU AND 90.
AND, UM, WE'VE BEEN VERY PLEASED WITH WHAT THE COUNTY HAS THEY'VE RECEIVED US WELL.
AND, UM, WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE ANY CHANGES TO THE PROPERTY, THE BUILDING IN TERMS OF MAJOR ADDITION OR STRUCTURE AT THIS POINT, WE HAVE NO PLANS TO DO THAT.
SO I DON'T HAVE A PRESENTATION FOR YOU.
UM, BUT I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ANYONE MIGHT HAVE.
WE'LL NOW OPEN IT FOR PUBLIC HEARING.
I WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST COME FORWARD AND YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO DO SO.
UH, MR. CHAIRMAN MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION I'M MONEY ALVAREZ 29, 60, UH, WILLOW TRACE LANE.
THE CONNECTION GOES WAY BACK WITH, THROUGH MY SISTER, BUT DR.
AND WHEN WE MOVED TO NORTH CAROLINA AND CAME BACK TO GOOCHLAND, WE WERE REPLACED TO FIND OUT THAT SHE HAD OPENED AND GOSHA, AND SHE'S CONTINUED TO BE OUR VET SINCE, AND, UH, THE, THE CLINIC DOES A GREAT JOB THERE.
UH, IF I, IF MY DOCTOR TREATED ME LIKE THEY TREAT THE DOGS, I'D GO MORE OFTEN.
SO ANYWAYS, SO I RECOMMEND THAT I WOULD ASK YOU TO RECOMMEND TO THE BOARD THAT YOU APPROVE IT WITH NO END DATE.
ANYONE ELSE LIKE TO SPEAK? ARE WE CLOSE TO THE CITIZEN? PUBLIC HEARING DISCUSSION, MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE AS PRESENTED.
SOME OF WE'VE BEEN MOTIONED AND PROPERLY SECONDED.
THAT'D BE APPROVED AS WRITTEN ALL IN FAVOR.
I SAY OUR FINAL PUBLIC HEARING ITEM TONIGHT IS IN DISTRICT FOUR R Z 2021
[2. District 4 - RZ-2021-00004 - Application filed by ME PV4 LLC requesting a]
ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO FOUR.APPLICATION FILED BY EMMY P V FOUR, LLC, REQUESTING A REZONING OF 41.334 ACRES FROM AGRICULTURAL LIMITED, A TWO AND RESIDENTIAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT, R P U D WITH PROFFERED CONDITIONS TO RESIDENTIAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT.
RPU D 20.185 ACRES BUSINESS GENERAL
THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS AREA AS FLEXIBLE.
[00:20:01]
COLEMAN, PRINCIPAL PLANNER.AND AGAIN, THIS IS A REQUEST IT'S 40 ACRES IN TOTAL.
THEY'RE ASKING THREE SEPARATE ZONING CLASSIFICATIONS, CODING RPU D BUSINESS AND INDUSTRIAL.
AND THIS IS LOCATED IN THE FAR NORTH EASTERN PART OF THE COUNTY ON THE SUBJECT.
PROPERTY IS ZONE AGRICULTURALLY, AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PROPERTIES ACROSS ASHLAND ROAD AND ABUTTING THE PROPERTY THAT IT ALSO IS AN AGRICULTURAL AND THERE IS SOME INDUSTRIAL ZONING IN THE AREA, SOME ADDITIONAL RPD AND COMMERCIAL ZONING AND CLOSE PROXIMITY, UM, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY AND MOST OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTY, UH, RECOMMENDED FOR FLEXIBLE USE IN THE CONFERENCE.
THAT PLAN, UM, THERE IS SOME ABUTTING, UH, PEDESTRIAL ZONING SOUTH OF JOHNSON ROAD, AND AGAIN, UM, OR A RECOMMENDATION FOR INDUSTRIAL SOUTH OF JOHNSON ROAD AND SOME, AND THE RECOMMENDATION FOR RESIDENTIAL THAT'S ASSOCIATED THE EXISTING PARKS, UH, PARKSIDE VILLAGE, AND LOOK AT THE AIR PHOTO.
SEE THERE IS THERE'S SOME UNDEVELOPED LAND IN THE AREA, BUT THERE'S ALSO A, SO IT DUSTY, RURAL DEVELOPMENT, CLOSE PROXIMITY.
AND AGAIN, IT DOES, UH, BUT, UM, UH, PARKSIDE VILLAGE, JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A BACKGROUND OF PARKSIDE VILLAGE.
THE ORIGINAL SECTIONS WERE APPROVED IN 2013, 418 LOTS.
AND THOSE HAVE BEEN CONSTRUCTED.
UH, SECTION FOUR WAS REZONED IN 2018 FOR ABOUT SIX TO ADDITIONAL LOTS.
AND THAT'S CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
AND WITH THIS REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL RPD ZONING, UH, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING 31, ADDITIONAL LOTS.
UM, THIS IS A RENDERING I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THIS IS NOT A PROFFERED, UH, CONCEPTUAL PLAN.
IT IS JUST A RENDERING JUST TO GIVE AN IDEA OF HOW THE LAND BAYS WORK OUT, HOW THE LAND WORKS OUT.
YOU NOTICE SORT OF, UM, UH, PARALLEL TO ASHTON.
RATHER THERE'S A LARGE GREEN AREA.
THERE IS A CREEK, UH, WITH BE RETAINED, SORT OF A SUBSTANTIAL, UM, BUFFER ASSOCIATED WITH THAT CREEK AND DRAINAGE AREA OF THE, UM, RESIDENTIAL TO THE TOP.
THERE IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPOSED CONCEPTUAL, WHICH ABUTS THE PARKSIDE VILLAGE NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, AT THE INTERSECTION OF JOHNSON ROAD AND ASHTON ROAD IS WHERE THE COMMERCIAL'S ZONING WOULD BE.
UM, AND THEN THE LAND BAY, UM, ON JOHNSON ROAD THAT WOULD BE INDUSTRIAL.
AND THIS, THIS DOES, UM, SHOW A NUMBER OF BUILDINGS ON IT, BUT THE, UH, THE APPLICANT DIDN'T WANT TO COMMIT.
UM, THEY WANTED TO MAINTAIN THE MAXIMUM ABILITY TO MARKET THE PROPERTY.
SO THEY DIDN'T WANT TO TIE THEMSELVES TO ANY TYPE OF SITE PLAN THAT THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO COMMIT TO.
UH, TH LOOKING MORE CLOSELY AT THE RESIDENTIAL REQUESTS.
THIS IS A PROPER CONCEPTUAL PLAN IS AS ONLY AS IT APPLIES TO THE RESIDENT'S PROPERTY, UH, THE KEYS HERE, OR YOU CAN SEE THE TWO CUL-DE-SACS AND THE TIE IN TO THE EXISTING ADOBE DRIVE.
UM, I'LL BE TALKING ABOUT THE CORY BUFFER IN, IN A DASH, A DOTTED LINE HERE IS A CORE BUFFER THAT I'LL GET INTO MORE DETAIL, UM, LATER, BUT THIS DOES DEMONSTRATE THAT ALL THE LOTS OF DWELLINGS WOULD BE OUTSIDE OF THAT CHORD BUFFER.
AND YOU ALSO SEE A LANDSCAPED AREA, THERE'LL BE A LANDSCAPE IN BURMA AREA.
UM, THAT'S ADJACENT TO THE INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY HERE, AND THEN THERE IS AN OPEN SPACE AREA THAT WILL ALSO BE BETWEEN THE PROPOSED LOTS AND RESIDENCES IN THE INDUSTRIAL, UM, PROPERTIES.
AND AGAIN, JUST TALKING A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THE RESIDENTIAL.
IT IS A RE A REQUEST TO RESUME 20 ACRES TO CONSTRUCT 31 AGE RESTRICTED, A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS.
IT WOULD BE AN EXTENSION OF THE EXISTING PARKSIDE VILLAGE SUBDIVISION, AND THE LAYOUT IS CONSISTENT WITH PARKSIDE VILLAGE.
I MEAN, WE TIE INTO OUT OB STREET, WHICH IS A VERY WAY THAT'S INTERNAL TO PARKSIDE VILLAGE.
UM, AND IT DOES INCLUDE A LAND THAT REMAINS IN BETWEEN THE OUTSIDE CORY BUFFER.
UM, THAT'S BEEN ESTABLISHED TO SEPARATE THE QUARRY FROM RESIDENTS.
WE USES, HE, AIN'T JUST LOOKING AT THE CONFERENCE OF PLAN.
IT JUST THE, UM, THE DASH IN LINE AND SORT OF LOCATED WHERE THE QUARRY BUFFER IS.
AND AGAIN, THAT'S A, THAT'S A 1000 FOOT REQUIREMENT OF REQUIRES THE CORY TO BE A THOUSAND FEET AWAY FROM ANY RESIDENCES.
AND THEN SORT OF THE DASH HAD RED AREAS IS WHERE THE RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT OF THIS APPLICATION IS LOCATED.
LOOK AT THE COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS, THE BUSINESS OWNING IT'S ABOUT 5.7 ACRES.
UM, IT WOULD FACILITATE APPROXIMATELY 35,000 SQUARE FEET OF NEW RETAIL CONSTRUCTION.
UM, THE INDUSTRIAL ZONING IS APPROXIMATELY 15 ACRES OR 15 ACRES NOW WOULD ALLOW APPROXIMATELY 109,000 SQUARE FEET OF NEW INDUSTRIAL CANAL, UH, CONSTRUCTION.
UM, AND IT IS THE INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT THAT ABUTS THE RESIDENTIAL.
THERE IS AN OPEN SPACE THERE, A VARIABLE WIDTH, BUT THE MINIMUM WITH THE VETS ABOUT 70, I'M LOOKING AT THE CONFERENCE OF PLAN RECOMMENDATION.
UM, THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, UH, RECOMMENDATION OR DESIGNATION IS FLEXIBLE, UH, FOR THIS AREA, GENERALLY THAT SUPPORTS OFFICE COMMERCIAL OFFICE SERVICE AND LIMITED INDUSTRIAL USES.
UH, THE BE ONE COMPONENT OF THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THAT FLEXIBLE DESIGNATION.
THE RPD IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THAT DESIGNATION.
[00:25:01]
COULD BE CONSISTENT AS LONG AS THERE'S SUFFICIENT BUFFERS AND THE APPROPRIATE USES ARE, UH, ARE LOCATED IN THAT AREA.AND THEN LOCATING ALL THE LOTS OF DWELLINGS OUTSIDE OF THAT 1000 CORY BOOKS, 1000 FOOT CORY BUFFER IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMP PLAN RECOMMENDATION BRIEFLY.
SOME OF THE TRAFFIC IMPACTS, THEY DID SUBMIT A TRAFFIC TAX ANALYSIS, UM, THAT DID SHOW, THERE ARE SOME, UM, CURRENT INTERSECTIONS THAT ARE SHOWING SOME CHALLENGES AS FAR AS THEIR LEVEL OF SERVICE THAT WOULD INCLUDE, UH, MOVEMENTS AT ASTON ROAD IN COMMERCE DRIVE, WHICH IS ROCKWELL COMMERCE CENTER AND ALSO ASTON ROAD AND POUNCE TRACK ROAD, WHICH IS TO THE NORTH THAT'S ACTUALLY OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTY.
UM, AS A RESULT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT, THERE WOULD BE SOME, UH, ADDITIONAL IMPACTS TO THE ROAD WAYS THAT WOULD INCLUDE ADDITIONAL IMPACTS TO ASHBURY COMMERCE DRIVE AND ADDITIONAL IMPACTS TO ASTRO AND LBS TRACK DRAB.
BUT IT WOULD ALSO HAVE SOME IMPACTS THAT THEY ASKED AND RARED AND JOHNSON BAIRD INTERSECTION THERE.
AND THE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THAT TRAFFIC STUDY, INCLUDING INSTALLING RIGHT AND LEFT, RIGHT AND LEFT TURN LANES ON ASHLAND ROAD, UH, TURN LANE ON JOHNSON ROAD ON TO ASTRONAUT ROAD, AND THEN DEDICATING RIGHT AWAY FOR ACTION.
I'M GOING TO GO INTO THE PROFFERS IN MORE DETAIL AT THE END, AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE PRESENTATION, BUT JUST WANT TO KIND OF, UH, OUTLINE JUST QUICKLY, UM, UH, WHAT SOME OF THE PROFITS ARE ADDRESSING.
UM, WHAT FIRST WITH THE RPD DISTRICT, THEY DID COMMIT TO CONCEPTUAL PLAN.
UH, THERE'S A MAXIMUM OF 31, LOTS.
THEY ARE AGE RESTRICTED, UM, UH, WHO HAVE BEEN AGE-RESTRICTED COMMUNITY.
THEY HAVE OFFERED THE CASH PROFFER TO OFFSET THEIR CAPITAL IMPACTS.
UH, THERE IS A RESTRICTION ON CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC.
UM, THEY'VE OFFERED ARCHITECTURAL AND EXTERIOR BUILDING MATERIALS RESTRICTIONS FOR THE HOMES.
THEY HAVE A DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE PROXIMITY TO THE, UH, THE BUSINESS INDUSTRIAL USES AND THE LOCATION AND THE TCSD OF THE PROVIDE SIDEWALKS.
AND AT LEAST ONE SIDE OF EACH STREET, UH, THE LANDSCAPE PLAN WOULD INCLUDE AT LEAST ONE TREE AND EACH FRONT YARD.
THERE IS A BERM ADJACENT TO THE JESSICA USES AND THEY ARE DEDICATING RIGHT AWAY FOR ASHTON ROAD.
SO SIMILARLY WITH THE B, UH, B ONE AND THE EMPTY REQUESTS, UH, THEY ARE, THERE'S A PROHIBITION ON SELECTED OBJECTIONABLE USES.
THERE'S A BUFFER ADJACENT TO THE RESIDENTIAL USE OF THEIR SCREENING AND RESTRICTION ON THE ORIENTATION OF ANY OUTDOOR STORAGE.
IF THAT'S INCLUDED IN THE INDUSTRIAL AREA.
UM, THERE'S A COMMITMENT FOR, UH, TURN LANES, UM, PER THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS, UH, THERE'S COMMITMENT TO DEDICATE RIGHT AWAY FOR ASTRO MARRIOTT.
AND THEY DID OFFER CASH PROFFER, UM, WITH THE A B ONE IN THE MTA ZONING, JUST A COUPLE OF OUTSTANDING CONCERNS.
UM, YOU KNOW, THERE IS NO CONCEPTUAL PLAN FOR BUSINESS DESKS USES.
UM, THE APPLICANT IS, YOU KNOW, IT'S CLEAR, THEY'RE TRYING TO MAKE THE MAXIMIZE THE MARKETABILITY OF THE PROPERTY, BUT, YOU KNOW, WE DO TYPICALLY SEE CONCEPTUAL PLANS.
UM, WHEN WE SEE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT, UH, THE PROPERTY IS NOT CURRENTLY WITHIN THE TCS DAY.
UM, IT WOULD REQUIRE, UH, TO BE THE RESIDENTS COMPONENT WOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE IN THE TCSD TO BE DEVELOPED AS PROPOSED OF THIS INDUSTRIAL COULD POTENTIALLY BE REZONED WITHOUT BEING IN THE TCSD.
AND THERE ISN'T A COMMITMENT TO BUILD ANY COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIAL USES PRIOR TO THE RESIDENTIAL.
UM, YOU KNOW, IT WOULDN'T BE BENEFICIAL IF THERE WAS A COMMITMENT TO, TO INCLUDE SOME, UM, SOME OF THE, UH, NON-RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION AS A PART OF THEIR DEVELOPMENT, OR PRIOR TO THE, UH, IN CONJUNCTION WITH, EXCUSE ME, THE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT.
THERE WAS A COMMUNITY MEETING IN MARCH, UM, BOARD MEMBER, MR. SHARP AND COMMISSIONERS, MR. MEYERS, AND MR. PROTECT AND ABOUT 50 PEOPLE FOR NOW, PEOPLE ATTENDED THAT, UH, COMMUNITY MEETING.
THERE WERE A NUMBER OF CONCERNS THAT WERE DISCUSSED, UM, A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT TRAFFIC AND THE TYPES OF USES OF THAT WOULD BE LOCATED THERE, THE DESIRE FOR A BERM TO SEPARATE THE RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL USES.
UM, AND OTHER CONCERNS ABOUT SETTING MORE CENTRAL TO PARKS, I'VE REALIZED LIKE THE NEED FOR AMENITIES SERVING THAT COMMUNITY.
UM, SINCE THAT COMMUNITY MEETING THERE HAVE BEEN SOME PHONE CALLS AND LETTERS AND EMAILS AND OPPOSITION TO THE APPLICATION.
NOW, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, UM, THE, UH, UH, THE APPLICANT SUBMITTED A NUMBER OF PROFFERS THAT THE FIRST SET OF PROFFERS, UM, APPLIED TO THE RPD DISTRICT, UH, THE WILL NOTE, UH, ON THE DYE, SHE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A COPY OF SOME BLACK LINE PROFFERS.
AND THOSE ARE ALSO IN THE PRESENTATION.
THERE WERE A FEW CHANGES THAT WERE MADE, UM, SINCE THE STAFF REPORT JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THOSE CHANGES.
UM, BUT THE FIRST PROPHET WOULD COMMIT THEM TO THE CONCEPTUAL PLAN FOR THE RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT.
UM, THERE'S A MAXIMUM OF 31, LOTS OF THE THIRD PROFFER DEALS WITH THE AGE RESTRICTION, BECAUSE THIS IS AN AGE RESTRICTED COMMUNITY.
THE FOURTH ONE DOES HAVE THE ARCHITECTURAL AND EXTERIOR BUILDING MATERIALS, UM, RESTRICTIONS FOR THE RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS.
AS FAR AS THE DISCLOSURE, THEY HAVE COMMITTED WITHIN THEIR MARKETING PACKAGES AND CONTRACTS AND SO FORTH.
SO ALL HER DISCLOSURE TO POTENTIAL PURCHASERS, AND THAT WAS ACUTE.
IT SAYS IT'S PROXIMITY TO THE ADJACENT ROCK QUARRIES AND THEIR MINING CRESTING AND PROCESSING OF ROCK THAT THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED WITHIN THE TCSD AND IT'S SUBJECT TO THE AD VALOREM TAX.
[00:30:01]
ON THE JASON PROPERTIES NEARBY, OR WILL BE ZONED INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIALLY, THEY'VE ALSO COMMITTED TO SIDEWALK ON AT LEAST ONE SIDE OF THE STREET.UH, THEY'VE COMMITTED TO A LANDSCAPE PLAN.
THEY WOULD PROVIDE ONE, AT LEAST ONE TREE IN EACH FRONT YARD.
ALL ROADS WOULD BE CONSTRUCTED TO MEET OUT STANDARDS.
UM, THE NINTH, WHEN THEY DID COMMIT TO A DEDICATION FOR RIGHT-AWAY FOR ASTON ROAD.
AND THE ONE CHANGE THEY MADE IS THEY DID COMMIT TO DEDICATING THAT RIGHT AWAY WITH THE REPUTATION OF THE SUBDIVISION PLAT.
UH, THIS, THIS VEGETATED BUFFER IS RELATED TO THE, UM, TYPIC CREEK AND THE STORMWATER AREA THAT, UM, TRAVERSES THE PROPERTY, OR THEY ARE COMMITTING A CASH PROFFER OF 3000, $224 PER RESIDENTIAL, LOT TO AN INTERCOURSE WITH THE CAPITAL IMPACT MODEL TO ADDRESS THEIR CAPITAL IMPACTS, UH, FOR SWELL, FOR CONSTRUCTION, CRACK TRAFFIC, THEY DID COMMIT TO BRING ALL THE EARTH MOVING AND THEY HAVE A CONSTRUCTION.
THEY WOULD BE INVOLVED IN BUILDING THE ROADS AND THE UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WOULD ALL COME IN THROUGH JOHNSON ROAD, SO THAT TRAFFIC WOULD NOTCH OR AS PARKSIDE VILLAGE, OR THEY DID COMMIT TO THAT.
UM, THIS WOULD NOT APPLY NECESSARILY TO VEHICLES THAT ARE GOING TO BE BUILDING THE HOMES, BUT THE HEAVY CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS WOULD APPROACH THE PROPERTY FROM JOHN, RIGHT.
UH, THEY DID SUBMIT TO A LANDSCAPE BERM THAT DID SHOW UP ON THE, I SHOWED YOU ON THE ACCEPTABLE PLAN, OR THEY DID ADD SOME ADDITIONAL DETAIL TO THAT BERM.
UM, IT'S GOING TO BE FOUR FEET IN HEIGHT, BUT THEY DID COMMIT TO PLANT SOME EVERGREEN TREES OF A CERTAIN HEIGHT AND, UM, UH, SPACED APPROPRIATELY, UH, ONE AND ALESIS AND DID SOME SHRUBS ON THAT BERM TO, TO SUPPLEMENT THE SCREENING THAT THEY, THAT THE BURN WENT OFF.
THEY ALSO, AS FAR AS THE STORM WATER MANAGEMENT POND, UH, THEY ARE GOING TO BUILD A POND THAT'S GOING TO, UM, BE DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED TO, UM, RETAIN A STORMWATER FROM, FROM, FROM THROUGH THE ENTIRE PROPERTY.
SO THEY COMMITTED TO THAT THROUGH THE RPD THAT THEY WOULD MAKE SURE THEY DID.
THEY DESIGNED THAT STORM WATER MANAGEMENT POND APPROPRIATELY TO NOT ONLY HANDLE THOSE STORM WATER, BUT STORM WATER.
NOW IS MOVING INTO THE B ONE AND N TWO DISTRICTS.
UM, THE FIRST ONE THEY DID PREHEAT PROHIBIT A NUMBER OF USES, INCLUDING JUNK STORAGE, UH, THE MANUFACTURING ASSEMBLY, OR FABRICATION OF HEAVY OR HEAVY FABRICATION, UH, STONEWORKS, UM, THE SALE AND SERVICE OF RENTAL TRUCKS, TRIBE, ATTRACTORS, ET CETERA, UH, CORING OPERATIONS, COMMERCIAL SOLID MILLS, TRUCK, TERMINALS, ADULT BUSINESSES, CLUBS, AND LODGES, AND GLAAD GUN CLUBS WITH INDOOR SHOOTING RANGES.
UH, SO THEY DID, UM, AS THIS CASE HAS EVOLVED, THEY RESTRICTED A NUMBER OF USES, YOU KNOW, SOFFIT OFF FOR THOSE THERE'S, THERE'S PROBABLY SOME ADDITIONAL USES COULD BE ADDED, BUT THIS IS A PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL LIST OF USES THAT THEY'VE COMMITTED TO, UM, THE NEXT BUFFER, AS FAR AS A, THAT AGAIN, THE FIRST PART OF THAT REFERS TO THE, THE STREAM AND THE DRAIN IT'S TO A MORTAR AREA THAT RUNS THROUGH THE PROPERTY.
UM, THAT SECOND ONE, UH, THEY'VE COMMITTED TO BE ADJACENT TO THE RESIDENTIAL THAT THEY WOULD COMMIT TO A 30 FOOT BUFFER, UH, WITH SOME ADDITIONAL PLANTINGS TO PROVIDE A BUFFER BETWEEN THE GESTURE USES AND THE, UM, RESIDENTIAL USES, OH, AS FAR AS OUTDOOR STORAGE, IF THERE'S ANY OUTDOOR STORAGE ON THE COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIAL SITE, UM, THEY DID INDICATE THAT THEY WOULD APPROPRIATELY SCREEN IT, BUT THEY WOULD ALSO ORIENTATE THAT OUTDOOR STORES SORT JOHNSON ROAD OR TOWARDS ASHLAND ROAD.
SO THEY, OUTDOOR STORAGE WOULD NOT BE ORIENTED TOWARDS THE RESIDENCE PROPERTY.
NUMBER FOUR, AS IT RELATES TO THE TRAFFIC MOVEMENTS, THEY DID PREVIOUSLY DID COMMIT TO THE, THE, UH, NORTHBOUND AND SOUTHBOUND TURN LANES OFF OF ASHLAND ROAD AND ALSO TO A TURN LANE OFF THE JOHNSON ROAD.
AND THEY ALSO COMMITTED TO, UM, UH, PROVIDING ADDITIONAL RIGHT AWAY FOR THE WIDENING OF ASTROS.
UH, THEY ALSO OFFER A CASH PROFFER OF $10,000, UM, TOWARDS IMPROVEMENTS, UM, TO JOHNSON ROAD, OR HE HAD A CHANCE TO MATURE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT TO OFFSET THE IMPACTS OF JOHNSON ROAD.
AND I DID WANT TO POINT OUT THAT, UH, FOR NUMBER SIX, THAT WAS DELETED, UM, FROM, I WAS INCLUDED IN THE COMMISSION PACKET.
AND I CAN PLEASE SPELL OUT A PRESENTATION.
YOU HAVE TO TRY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THOUGH.
CURRENTLY THE, UM, THE PROPERTY HAS DUAL ZONING, BUT IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE IN A DESIGNATION OF WHERE AND HOW MUCH OF EACH SO, UH, COULD THE RPU D ON THE, UNDER THE CURRENT ZONING, COULD IT BE OF THE 41 ACRES? COULD THAT BE 40 OF THEM? AND ONLY ONE OF THEM, 80 TO 82.
AND I'M TALKING ABOUT THE CURRENT ZONING.
[00:35:01]
THE CURRENT ZONING IS MOSTLY AGRICULTURAL.THERE IS SOME RPD, UM, BUT MOST THAT'S JUST A SMALL PIECE OF THE RPD, MOSTLY ASSOCIATED WITH OPEN SPACE AND THE EXISTED PARKSIDE, UM, PARKS, VILLAGE AREA.
BUT MOST OF THERE, THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE PROPERTY IS IN THAT AREA, CULTURAL ZONING, BUT I'M TALKING ABOUT THIS 41 ACRES, RIGHT.
ACCORDING TO WHAT YOU HAVE HERE, YOU HAVE, THAT HAS DUAL ZONING.
SO, UM, IN A, AND IF EITHER ONE OF THOSE COULD PERSON JUST TAKE 40 OF THE 41 ACRES AND MAKE IT RPU D NO, THEY, THEY DID COMMIT TO THE CONCEPTUAL PLAN HERE.
SO THIS, THIS WOULD BE RPD COMPONENT RIGHT THERE.
AND SO IT IS LIMITED, THEIR APPLICATION IS LIMITED TO THE ACREAGE THAT THEY STAYED IN THERE.
UM, AND LATER ON, YOU WERE SAYING THAT, UH, R P E P U D IS NOT, UH, CONSISTENT WITH THE, UM, WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, BUT IT'S ALREADY ZONE R P U D.
ONLY A SMALL PIECE OF IT IS AN RPD.
THE, THE, LIKE I SAID, UM, SO THERE'S THAT A LITTLE BIT CONFUSING, BUT ONLY A SMALL PIECE OF IT'S RPD.
MOST OF IT ACTUALLY IS IN THE AGRICULTURAL, WHICH ALL THE AGRICULTURAL IS IN THE FLEXIBLE DESIGNATION.
WOULD THE APPLICANT LIKE TO COME FORWARD? YOU CAN REMOVE YOUR MASK? I WASN'T SURE.
UM, THANK YOU, MR. COLEMAN MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION.
MY NAME IS NATALIE CROFT, AND I'M THE DIRECTOR OF LAND PLANNING FOR EAGLE CONSTRUCTION HERE ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT, UH, BECAUSE THIS REZONING REQUEST REALLY HAS TWO DISTINCT PARTS AS MR. COLEMAN POINTED OUT.
I'D LIKE TO SPEAK TO THE RESIDENTIAL PIECE FIRST.
UM, IT SEEMS THE MAIN COMMENT IS THAT THE 31 HOMES WE'RE PROPOSING ARE NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE COUNTY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WHICH RECOMMENDS FLEXIBLE DEVELOPMENT, SUCH AS COMMERCIAL OFFICE SERVICE AND INDUSTRIAL USES.
WE BELIEVE OUR PROPOSAL WOULD BETTER PROTECT THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD BY EFFECTIVELY.
BOOKENDING THE SOUTH WESTERN EDGE OF PARKSIDE VILLAGE DEVELOPING THAT SMALL REMAINING AREA OUTSIDE OF THE 1000 FOOT QUARRY BUFFER AND PROVIDING A MORE INTENTIONAL TRANSITION BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL USES THE REQUEST WOULD DRAW THE LINE, SETTING THE EXPECTATION AND THE ZONING FOR WHERE THE NEIGHBORHOOD ENDS AND THE NON-RESIDENTIAL USES BEGIN.
AS YOU CAN SEE ON THIS EXHIBIT, THE YELLOW HIGHLIGHTED AREA, UM, REPRESENTS THE RESIDENTIAL LOTS.
WE ARE REQUESTING BE REZONED TO RPU D AND THE GREEN REPRESENTS THE OPEN SPACE IN THE DISTRICT THAT WE'RE PROPOSING.
UH, THERE'S ANY DISTRICTS CORRESPONDING TO THE LAND USE MAP RECOMMENDATION OF FLEXIBLE WOULD PROVIDE ONLY 65 FEET FROM THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL LOTS IN PARKSIDE VILLAGE TO THE NEAREST COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL BUILDING, ENHANCED BUFFERING AND LANDSCAPING BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL AREAS WOULD BETTER PROTECT THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL.
THIS PROPOSAL INCLUDES A MUCH WIDER BUFFER THAN THE 65 FEET A BUFFER WITH A WIDTH OF ABOUT 120 FEET TO 310 FEET IS PROVIDED AND IS PROFFERED TO INCLUDE THREE SEPARATE STAGGERED ROWS OF EVERGREEN TREES, SIX FEET IN HEIGHT, WIND PLANTED A DOUBLE ROW ON THE NON-RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY.
AND ANOTHER STAGGERED ROW PLANTED A TOP OF FOUR FOOT BERM WITH AN EVERGREEN HEDGE ON THE RESIDENTIAL SIDE OF THE PROPERTY LINE, SIMILAR TO THE LANDSCAPE BERM ALONG PARK VILLAGE BOULEVARD.
AS YOU ENTER THE NEIGHBORHOOD FROM POUNCEY TRACT ROAD, WE UNDERSTAND THAT CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC CAN BE DISRUPTIVE.
AND AS A DIRECT RESPONSE TO THIS CONCERN, WE'VE ALSO PROFFERED THAT THE HEAVY EQUIPMENT USED IN SITE DEVELOPMENT WOULD ACCESS THE SITE ONLY FROM JOHNSON ROAD.
AS MR. COLEMAN MENTIONED, STAFF ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE PROPERTY IS NOT CURRENTLY IN THE TCSD, AND WE ARE ACTIVELY WORKING WITH STAFF TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION FOR ONLY THAT PROPERTY UNDER THIS REZONING APPLICATION, NOT THE ENTIRE PARENT PARCEL, UH, TO BE ADMITTED INTO THE TCSD.
WE FULLY ANTICIPATE AND INTEND FOR BOTH THE TCSD APPLICATION AND THE REZONING APPLICATION TO BE HEARD TOGETHER AT THE BOARD LEVEL.
[00:40:03]
ALL RIGHT, MOVING TO THE NON-RESIDENTIAL PORTION OF THE APPLICATION, WE HEARD REALLY THREE MAIN POINTS, FIRST ENHANCED BUFFERING AND SCREENING, AND A RESTRICTION ON THE HEAVIER MORE INTENSE USES WOULD BE APPROPRIATE GIVEN THE PROXIMITY TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.WE'VE PROFFERED, A HEAVILY LANDSCAPED BUFFER AS DESCRIBED.
WE'VE ALSO PROFFERED OUT THE HEAVY INDUSTRIAL USES AS WELL AS LODGES GUN CLUB AS AN ADULT BUSINESSES.
AND WE'RE REQUIRING THAT OUTDOOR STORAGE BE ORIENTED AWAY FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND TOWARD ASHLAND OR JOHNSON ROADS.
NOW, THE OTHER TWO POINTS ARE REALLY TIED TOGETHER.
UM, WE UNDERSTAND THE COUNTY'S DESIRE TO ENSURE THAT THESE PROPOSED USES ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO GET BUILT.
UM, WE UNDERSTAND THE DESIRE FOR CERTAINTY, ESPECIALLY RIGHT NOW.
UM, BUT UNFORTUNATELY RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE NO USERS SIGNED UP WAITING FOR A REZONING TO BE APPROVED, TO BASE A CONCEPT PLAN ON THIS PROPERTY.
ISN'T ON ANYONE SHORT LIST WITHOUT THE ZONING ALREADY IN PLACE.
SO HOW DO WE SET THIS PROPERTY UP FOR SUCCESS? WE CREATE THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF MARKETABILITY TO THE WIDEST AUDIENCE WHILE SAFEGUARDING ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL USES THE VERY FIRST STEP IN INCREASING THE CHANCES OF DEVELOPMENT ON THIS PROPERTY IS TO ALLOW FOR THOSE DESIRED USES TERESA AND THE PROPERTY TO PERMIT THOSE USES THIS PROPERTY CANNOT BE SUCCESSFULLY MARKETED TO THOSE COMPANIES WHEN THE USES AREN'T EVEN YET PERMITTED.
THIS EXHIBIT SHOWS THE LAND USE PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE LEFT, COMPARED WITH THE ZONING ON THE RIGHT, THE ZONING DOESN'T YET MATCH THE DESIRE.
THE PROPERTY ALREADY ZONED FOR INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT IS QUARRY LAND OR PROPERTY LOCATED WITHIN THE ROCKVILLE COMMERCE CENTER OR THE LINEAR INDUSTRIAL PARK DEVELOPMENT FITTING.
THE RECOMMENDATION OF FLEXIBLE HAS NOWHERE TO GO IN THIS CORRIDOR BASED ON ALL THE
ANOTHER FACTOR IS FLEXIBILITY.
IN ORDER TO REACH THE WIDEST AUDIENCE, WE HAVE TO BE FLEXIBLE.
WE CAN'T LIMIT OURSELVES BY DESIGNING A SITE AND ITS BUILDINGS.
WHEN WE DON'T YET KNOW THE NEEDS OF THE PROSPECTIVE USERS, THE WAY WE CAN FEEL COMFORTABLE BY ALLOWING THIS FLEXIBILITY IS KNOWING WE HAVE ADDED THE SAFE GUARDS, RESTRICTING THOSE HEAVIER MORE INTENSE USES AND PROVIDING WIDE, HEAVILY LANDSCAPED BUFFERS.
AND LASTLY, HOW DO YOU INCENTIVIZE THIS SPECIFIC PROPERTY? HOW DO YOU GET THIS PROPERTY TO THE TOP OF SOMEONE'S LIST? WE HAVE PROFFERED THAT THE LARGE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT POND IN THE ADJOINING RESIDENTIAL AREA WILL BE OVERSIZED, DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED TO ACCEPT RUNOFF FROM THE INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY.
WE'VE ALSO PROFFERED TO CONSTRUCT THREE SEPARATE TURN LANES AT THE ASHLAND JOHNSON ROAD INTERSECTION TO BETTER ACCOMMODATE TRAFFIC TO AND FROM THE SITE.
ADDITIONALLY, USING THIS PROPERTY FOR A CONSTRUCTION ENTRANCE TO THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION, WE'LL ALSO INITIATE SOME PRELIMINARY CLEARING GRUBBING AND GRADING OF THE SITE.
SO WHILE WE CANNOT TIE THE RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL PHASING TOGETHER, WE BELIEVE THAT WE TRULY HAVE SET THE PROPERTY UP FOR SUCCESS.
OUR PROPOSAL NOT ONLY PROTECTS AN EXISTING RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT ALSO PROVIDES ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL GROWTH, WHERE THE COUNTY HAS DESIGNATED.
WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION THIS EVENING.
I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
AND I'D ALSO, IF I MAY RESERVE A FEW MINUTES AT THE END OF THE PUBLIC HEARING TO ADDRESS ANYTHING THAT HAS COME UP AT THE PUBLIC HEARING.
WE NOW OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING SECTION FOR THIS CASE.
ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST, PLEASE COME FORWARD.
STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS, AND YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES.
ANYONE ON JUNE, I DON'T KNOW, ONE WISHING TO SPEAK.
WE'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ANY QUESTIONS AT ALL.
I THINK IT'S PRETTY CLEAR WHAT, WHAT THEY INTEND TO DO.
AND WITH A LOT OF PROFFERS, I THINK MAKE THE PROPERTY A BETTER, BETTER, BETTER PROPERTY.
I GUESS MY ONLY MONICA, I DON'T REALLY HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH RPU D TO VAL, BUT I DO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT.
INDUSTRIAL PHASE OF THIS, NOT HAVING ANY IDEA WHAT'S GOING TO GO IN THERE.
UM, COULD IT BE SETTING OURSELVES UP FOR A, YOU KNOW, A PROBLEM DOWN THE ROAD WHEN
[00:45:02]
YOU CAN'T EXCLUDE EVERYTHING THAT POSSIBLY COULD GO IN THERE AND NOT KNOWING ANY IDEA OF WHAT IT IS, MAKES IT A LITTLE DIFFICULT TO, UH, APPROVE THAT.UH, THAT'S MY ONLY ISSUE WITH, WITH THAT, WITH ANY, ANY BUSINESS THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE APPROVED, THAT WE'RE GOING IN THERE.
I MEAN, IT'S, WE STILL HAVE TO BE APPROVED EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ZONED.
BUT BY THEN, YOU'VE GOT PEOPLE LIVING ALONG THAT STRETCH IT ON THERE, BUT WE KNOW WHAT NOT IS GOING TO BE THERE.
WHAT THE NEXT COMMISSION OR BOARD WOULD APPROVE IN THERE.
I DON'T REALLY THINK A FOUR FOOT BERM AS MUCH THOUGH, TO SEPARATE THE RESIDENTIAL FROM THE INDUSTRIAL.
I MEAN MAYBE IF IT WAS EIGHT OR 10 FOOT BERM, IT MIGHT MAKE A DIFFERENCE, BUT FOUR FEET IS NOT GRAY.
THAT'S ABOUT AS HIGH AS THIS TOP OF THIS PODIUM.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE APPLICANTS YOU PROPOSAL AND YOU MOVE.
DO WE HAVE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.
IT IT'S BEEN MOTIONED AND PROPERLY SECONDED ALL IN FAVOR.
I JUST HAVE MS. PARKER IS AN OLD BUSINESS, NO OLD BUSINESS AND NO OTHER BUSINESS.
WE HAVE A MOTION FOR A GERMAN MOOD.
