Ill. SUMMARY OF STAFF REPORT:

This request is to rezone approximately 250 acres from A-1 and R-2AC to R-3C, R-5AC, RTHC, and R-5C to allow the development of 50 single-family residences, 400 zero lot line detached dwellings, 300 townhomes, and 285 apartment units. The subject property is located on Magnolia Ridge Drive approximately 500' from its intersection with Brook Road (U.S. Route 1 ).

The 2026 Comprehensive Plan recommends Suburban Residential 1, Suburban Residential 2, Office, and Environmental Protection Area for the site. The portion of the site recommended for Office is also listed as Prime Economic Development Site #7. The detached single family and zero lot line portion of the proposal are consistent with these recommendations, but the increased density created by the addition of townhomes and apartments increases the projects density over that which is recommended . While also not consistent with the Office and Prime Economic Development Site recommendations, it is generally consistent with the existing pattern of development which has occurred in the vicinity.

The proffers submitted with this request would provide several conditions which outline the intent of the developer; however, in order to fully evaluate the request staff would need the comments outlined in section IV of this report addressed. At the time this staff report was written, the applicant's revised traffic analysis based on County and VDOT comments has not been received by the County. While significant issues with the revised TIA are not expected, staff cannot support this request until that document has been received and reviewed. If the report is submitted and all relevant comments have been addressed by the time of the public hearing, staff could more fully recommend support of this request based on additional items outlined in Section IV being addressed.

The Planning Commission recommended approval of this request during their March 10, 2016 hearing.

IV. LAND USE ANALYSIS AND IMPLICATIONS:

The subject site consists of seven whole parcels and a portion of two others totaling almost 250 acres located on Magnolia Ridge Drive. The northern property line abuts the Chickahominy River and Henrico County's border with Hanover County. The existing Magnolia Ridge subdivision and some acreage parcels are located south of the proposal. More acreage parcels and A Thyme to Plant Herb Farm border the request to the west. A commercial development, Virginia Center Marketplace, containing a Martin's and a Target store as anchors is east of the development along with an Assisted Living Facility, Verena at Virginia Center. A portion of the property was zoned R-2AC with rezoning case C-6C-05 for a 147 lot subdivision; however, the proposed subdivision, Sweetbay Hill , was never constructed .

It is likely that flood plain exists along the subject sites northern border along the Chickahominy River. An unnamed stream generally flows along the southern border adjacent to the Magnolia Ridge subdivision, runs across Woodman Road (extended) and would then separate the proposed apartments from the remainder of the development. Any flood plain in either of these areas would be required to be rezoned C-1 and protected by proffer #11 . A power line easement bisects the northern portion of the property. The remainder of the property is predominantly wooded with deciduous trees and evergreens.

The property is recommended for Suburban Residential 1, Suburban Residential 2, Office and Environmental Protection Area in the 2026 Comprehensive Plan. The Office designated portion of the parcel is also part of Prime Economic Development Site #7. This request is not fully consistent

REZ2016-00002 Page 2

with the land use recommendations of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan. While the majority of the development would be consistent with the Suburban Residential designations in terms of being detached dwelling units, the overall density of 4.15 units/acre is higher than the density recommendation ranging up to 3.4 units/acre. Additionally, this request is not consistent with the recommendation of Office and the designation as a Prime Economic Development Site on the eastern portion of the site. The applicant's proffer regarding the eventual rezoning of flood plains to C-1 , Conservation District, is consistent with the portion of the property recommended as Environmental Protection Area. While the request is not entirely consistent with all the recommendations of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan, it is generally consistent with the existing pattern of development which has occurred in the vicinity.

The 2026 Comprehensive Plan also contains the county's plans for existing and future road network via the Major Thoroughfare Plan {MTP). The MTP shows a Minor Arterial , Concept Road 133, designated roadway crossing the property to extend Woodman Road from its current termination at Greenwood Road to Brook Road (U .S. Route 1 ). This concept road is essential in providing an adequate road network to serve the planned growth in this area of the county and to relieve Brook Road and provide an alternate point of access to 1-295. The conceptual plan proffered with this request shows the extension of Woodman Road through the property consistent with the general alignment desired by the County. A proffer submitted by the applicant outlines the phasing for construction of different lengths of Woodman Road extended by the developer in conjunction with the phasing of the proposed development. In addition to the access provided by the extension of Woodman Road , the applicant has indicated they would work with the County to provide temporary emergency access to the property as the County deems it is needed.

Cultural resources have been identified on the property by the Department of Recreation and Parks. In addition the remnants of an old mill adjacent to the Chickahominy River, they identified a family cemetery on parcel 779-773-9041 , a domestic Native American camp on parcel 782-772-1447, and parcel 782-772-1447 as part of the Yellow Tavern Battlefield core area. The applicant has stated due to the presence of wetlands requiring federal wetlands permits, the developer will be required to address this issue during that process of acquiring those permits.

The applicant has proffered a maximum number of units for the proposed development. As proffered there would be 50 single-family residences, 400 zero lot line detached dwellings, 300 townhomes, and 285 apartment units. The proffered minimum unit size would be 2,200 sq . ft. for the R-3C units, 1,700 sq . ft. for the R-5AC units, and 1,400 sq . ft. for the townhouse units. The minimum allowed by the code is 1, 100 sq . ft. in the R-3 district and 700 sq . ft . in the R-5A district.

In addition to the conceptual plan , a maximum unit count, minimum square footages and road phasing , the proffers dated December 17, 2015 provide the following :

• A multi-use trail to be constructed along the north side of Woodman Road extended along the entire length of the subject site;

• Sidewalks along the south side of Woodman Road extended, both sides of Magnolia Ridge Drive (within the development) , and along one side of all public roads within the development;

• Greenbelts along the right of way lines and median landscaping of Woodman Road extended and Magnolia Ridge Drive within the subject site;

• Architectural elevations, with the exception that the apartment buildings could be 3, 4, or 5 stories;

• Entrance features ; and • Limits on the hours of construction .

REZ2016-00002 Page 3

Proffers specific to the townhouses and detached residential units include:

• Amenities consisting of a community building , a pool , and recreational amenities, which may include, but are not limited to, walking trails , multi-use courts and a playground;

• Street trees planted every 50' and foundation plantings in the R-3C and R-5AC sections and in the RTHC area on lots with rear facing garages;

• Exterior materials would consist of brick, stone, cultured stone, stone veneer, fiber cement siding, engineered wood, and vinyl. Brick, stone, or stone veneer would be used on 25% of the front exterior of 113 of the R-3C and R-5AC properties, and 15% of the front exterior of 150 of the town homes;

• All detached units to be built on crawl space or basement foundations finished in brick, stone, or stone veneer;

• A two-car garage for each detached unit and a one-car garage for each residential townhouse.

Proffers specific to the apartment development include:

• Exterior materials would consist of brick, stone, cultured stone, stone veneer, fiber cement siding , engineered wood , and vinyl. Brick, stone, or stone veneer would be used on 35% of the front building wall surfaces;

• Parking lot lighting height limits and direction requirements ; and • Recreational amenities containing at a minimum a clubhouse, a pool, a fitness center, and

a playground.

The proposed development is located within the Greenwood Elementary, Hungary Creek Middle, and Glen Allen High school attendance zones. Henrico County Public Schools has indicated these schools are currently operating at 92% , 105%, and 92% of functional capacity respectively. As detailed by HCPS, the ideal capacity ratio is less than 95% of functional capacity. With the addition of the projected student yield from this request at full build out, the functional capacity of the schools would be 128%, 116%, and 100% respectively. The Henrico County Public Schools has indicated with redistricting , the additional students anticipated from the new development can likely be accommodated at the middle and high school levels. The addition of the projected student yield of 235 elementary school children will create the need for a new or expanded facility.

The applicant submitted a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) to the county and VDOT on February 151.

The Department of Public Works transmitted comments and questions to the applicant's traffic engineer on the 18th of February, and additional comments were sent to the applicant's traffic engineer at a later date by VDOT. At the time this report was written the County has not received a revised TIA. A revised TIA addressing County and VDOT comments would be helpful to staff in fully evaluating this request.

The applicant has submitted a minimum level of amenities and a phasing plan for the apartment amenities. At the time this report was written , the applicant has submitted proffers which stipulate the minimum level of amenities for the non-apartment portion of the proposal, but there has been no designation of when any of these amenities would be built. The applicant has also submitted a proffer for Greenbelts adjacent to the right of way lines of Woodman Road extended and Magnolia Ridge Drive, but at the time this report was written the contents of such Greenbelts has not been specified. In order for staff to fully evaluate the benefit of these Greenbelts the contents of these areas would need to be known.

REZ2016-00002 Page 4

Due to its density, the proposed development is not entirely consistent with the residential recommendations of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan. While also not consistent with the Office and Prime Economic Development Site recommendations, it is generally consistent with the existing pattern of development which has occurred in the vicinity. The proffers submitted with this request would provide several conditions which outline the intent of the developer; however, in order to fully evaluate the request and to provide clarity for the future, staff would need the comments noted in section IV of this report addressed. At the time this staff report was written, the applicant's revised traffic analysis based on County and VDOT comments has not been received by the County. While significant issues with the revised TIA are not expected, staff cannot support this request until that document has been received and reviewed . If the report is submitted and all relevant comments have been addressed by the time of the public hearing, staff could more fully recommend support of this request based on additional items outlined in Section IV being addressed.

The Planning Commission recommended approval of this request during their March 10, 2016 hearing.

V. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS:

Land Use Plan Recommendation: The 2026 Comprehensive Plan recommends Suburban Residential 1, Suburban Residential 2, Office, and Environmental Protection Area for the subject property. This request is not entirely consistent with those land use recommendations. The overall density of 4.15 units/acre is not consistent with the Suburban Residential Recommendations, including a density range up to 3.4 units/acre. The area of the request recommended for Office is listed as Prime Economic Development #7 in Chapter 7 of the plan. This request is not consistent with the recommendation of Office or the designation as a Prime Economic Development Site.

Vision, Goal, Objectives, and Policies: This request is generally consistent with the following Goals, Objectives and Policies of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan:

• Land Use and Community Character Objective 4: Promote developments with features that provide a safe pedestrian environment.

• Land Use and Community Character Objective 9: Promote diverse housing types that meet the needs of a demographically diverse population.

• Land Use and Community Character Objective 16: Increase the quantity of housing units near employment centers .

• Land Use and Community Character Objective 24: Encourage development of large tracts which provide space for a variety of housing types and services as opposed to small , segmented growth.

This request is not fully consistent with the following Goals, Objectives and Policies of the 2026 Comprehensive Plan:

• Economic Goal 3: Tax revenues that support the continuation of the highest quality public services and facilities that are generated in a balanced manner between residential and nonresidential uses.

• Economic Objective 3: Identify and preserve Prime Economic Development Sites for regional level growth and encourage the development of these sites for high tax revenue generating uses.

REZ2016-00002 Page 5

VI. PUBLIC SERVICE AND SITE CONSIDERATIONS:

Major Thoroughfare and Transportation: The following is the approximate trips generated by the proposed development:

Total Weekday Trips: 7,712 - (3,856 entering , 3,856 exiting) AM Peak: 131 entering, 462 exiting PM Peak: 468 entering , 261 exiting

The applicant's engineer has responded to Traffic Engineering's comments and is preparing responses to VDOT's comments. Traffic Engineering is currently waiting for the revised Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) Report . Based on the initial TIA, Traffic Engineering feels that the surrounding roadway network can handle the increase in traffic with the proposed roadway improvements. When the Woodman Road Extension is built, it will divert traffic from the Route 1 corridor which will assist in maintaining acceptable levels of service in this area.

Drainage: • All proposed improvements must comply with all applicable Public Works plan of

development requirements. • The site must comply with applicable water quality requirements. • No more than 50 residential lots are allowed upon a single access point. • No more than 82 residential units are allowed upon a single access point. • Traffic will determine if any right-of-way dedication or road improvements are required . • A County Capital Project (Concept Road 133 - Woodman Road Extended} has been

identified in this area. Development projects on this site must be consistent with the County Capital Project.

• Based on information in the County's GIS, floodplain appears present on the site. • It appears there may be an SPA Stream, an RPA stream, and floodplain on the

property. • Based on GIS, Waters of the U.S. and/or hydric soils are present (indicating possible

wetlands) Corps of Engineers and DEQ permits may be required. • There may be restrictions within existing non-County utility easements.

Public Utilities: County water is located in JEB Stuart Parkway behind Target. County sewer is located in Magnolia Ridge Drive. There is an existing 12" stub at the connection point. This will need to be replaced with a 16" pipe.

Department of Community Revitalization: No comments have been received at the time this report was written.

*At complete build-out

The Henrico County Public Schools is working closely with the Henrico Department of Planning to analyze the potential impact of the new development, River Mill, being proposed west of the

REZ2016-00002 Page 6

intersection of Brook Road and Magnolia Ridge. The new development is expected to yield 235 elementary students, 111 middle school students, and 145 high school students to attend Greenwood Elementary, Hungary Creek Middle, and Glen Allen High schools with the current school boundaries.

With redistricting , the additional students anticipated from the new development can likely be accommodated at the middle and high school levels. However, this will require school boundary adjustments. With Hungary Creek Middle School already overcapacity, Henrico County Public Schools staff will be presenting the School Board with several relief options in the fall of 2016, which will not become effective until the 2017-18 school year. If the proposed development is approved, the development's impact will be considered as relief options for Hungary Creek are developed.

At the elementary level , school capacity in the Brookland district to serve additional students from the proposed development is minimal. Facility expansions or new schools may be needed to address current and future capacity needs to accommodate anticipated growth.

Division of Fire: The proposed development is 1.5 miles from Virginia Center Firehouse 21 measuring a straight line from the northern extent of development as shown, to the firehouse. It must be noted, street layout will increase this distance and will increase response time to certain areas of the development. It should not negatively impact the FCR of Class 1.

The division estimates the additional 1,035 residential units proposed would increase the calls for service by 112 per year for the fire planning zone. This number does not include commercial areas of the proposed development as data is not available for this proposal. Of the 112 additional calls for service, 90 calls will be emergency medical in nature. An ambulance is not currently assigned in this fire planning zone, surrounding zones would be utilized for services. The division is addressing anticipated countywide EMS demand increases.

Division of Fire has concerns over limited access to the site which will cause delays in response times to all calls for service. All access to the development appears to be from the southernmost point, additional access should be considered. There is no information on road widths to determine the impact that will have on response times. Narrow road widths and traffic calming features , if included, will increase response times in this development.

The Division of Fire recommends the installation of fire sprinklers in all structures as well as the use of non-combustible siding/facades.

Division of Police: The applicant is encouraged to contact and work with the Community Services Unit within the Division of Police for crime prevention techniques and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) concepts as a plan of development (POD) is drafted to be submitted for review. Henrico Police Division supports and implements CPTED, which is the theory that the proper design and effective use of the built environment can led to a reduction in the incidence and fear of crime and an improvement in the quality of life. See the case file for more detailed characteristics recommended to be in place at this site.

Recreation and Parks: Parcel 779-773-9041 contains the Schermerhorn Cemetery. There are six headstones and one child statue in two parallel lines. Parcel 780-774-2957 contains archaeological site (44HE0780) a domestic Native American camp, early archaic period-no recommendation for preservation of site.

REZ2016-00002 Page 7

A portion of a parcel , 782-772-1447 falls within the (043-5108) Yellow Tavern Battlefield core area. Much of the battlefield has been lost to development.

Libraries: This request falls in the service area of the Glen Allen Branch Library. The facility should be able to handle this request. As part of the voter approved 2005 bond referendum, the Glen Allen facility was renovated and expanded - from 12,500 sq . ft. to 25,000 sq. ft . - in October 2010. As these types of developments continue to be built and the projected population in the area continues to grow, the expanded Glen Allen Branch Library will be able to meet the increased service demands.

Topography and Land Characteristics Adaptability: The site contains some environmental constraints, including potential areas of 100-year floodplain . The submitted conceptual plan indicates the majority of these areas will be preserved, and staff recommends the applicant minimize any negative impacts to sensitive environmental features.
