Visitors: Diane Schmi Staff. David Benish, Frank Pohl, Leah Blumfield; Heather McMahon Description of Location: St. Anne Belfield Lower/Middle School Existing Zoning: R I Zoning History: SP200700053;_ARB200800147_ Comp. Plan location and land use designation: Neighborhood Density Residential Proposal: (i) Common understanding of the proposed project The applicant is proposing locate a residential life dorm building to include 6 rooms to house 12 to 18 students and three dorm families. The building will be approximately 10,000 sq. ft. and two (2) stories. Proposed location on -campus, near football field. (ii) Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan • This site in located with designated Development Area (Southern and Western Neighborhoods Master Plan area). The proposed new use is consistent with the land uses recommended for this area. In addition to conformity with the Land Use recommendations of the Master Plan staff will be reviewing your applications for consistency with the principles of the Neighborhood Model. The final concept for development of the site should attempt to address those priniciples to the extent feasible. For this particular proposal (Option2B) the principles to focus on addressing are for pedestrian access, buildings and spaces of human scale, and relegated parking. Building scale and parking should be focused on addressing impacts/visibility from the Entrance Corridor; pedestrian accessibility should be focused on assuring pedestrian connection to the remaining campus area are provided. (iii) Broadly identify the planning, zoning or other issues raised by the application to be addressed. The primary issue to address with the proposed new location will be potential impacts to the entrance corridor. The SP review process will focus on whether this location will have a significant impact to the entrance corridor that cannot be overcome through normal building scale/design (such as height, materials, siting adjustments) and land development measures (grading and landscaping). ARB approval will be required with review and Site Development Plans. It is advised that the applicant submit a conceptual plan for Advisory Review (for a Special Use Permit) by the Architectural Review Board at the applicant's earliest convenience. This full -board review category has no associated fee; the ARB application can be found here while the checklist for requested materials to accompany the application can be found here. In addition to the materials requested in the checklist, staff strongly recommends that the applicant provide sight -line analyses that help determine the proposed building's potential visibility from the Entrance Corridor. The new building and associated parking may require new stormwater management facilities or upgrades to existing facilities. While this issue is typical addressed at the site plan stage of review, any known new or upgraded facility locations proposed along (and visible to) the entrance corridor should be identified and included with revised information for review. (iv) Applicable procedures (v) Identify the information the applicant must submit with the application, including the supplemental information. PROCESS FOR REVIEW: • This proposal can be submitted as a revision to the existing Special Use Permit (SP) application currently indefinitely deferred (SP201700029). No new SP application is required. You can submit revised plan as a "resubmittal" to the initial comments provided by staff. Since the revised proposal/plan will be treated as the applicant's first revision, there will be no fee associated with this submittal. Because the proposed location and building is completely different from what was previously submitted and reviewed and SP201800098, the resubmitted information/plan will be distributed to reviewing agencies and treated as an initial submittal with review comments due to the applicant in approximately 30 days. Resubmittal dates: resubmittal dates/deadlines are found on page 3 of the document linked here. As noted above, because this revision is substantially different (new location) than the previous (initial) proposal, the review period provided for the reviewing agencies and departments may be somewhat longer noted on page 3. http://www.albemarle.org/upload/images/forms center/departments/Community Developme nt/forms/schedules/Special Use Permit & Zoning Map Amendment Schedule.pdf 2 • Because of the limited scope and scale of this proposal, we will accept and begin review of the site development plan for this proposal after the Planning Commission public hearing on SP201700029 (provided the Commission is recommending approval). The Concept Plan approved with SP200700053 will need to be revised to reflect this new use in the proposed location (approved plan is referred to as "St. Anne's—Belfield Proposed Lower/Middle School Preliminary Site Plan" dated June 6, 2008). This revision should be submitted for review by staff. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
