Sincerely, Kate Zirkle Kate G. Zirkle Director of Philanthropy Planned Parenthood South Atlantic 434-296-1000 ext. 6641 434-760-2989 cell please notice the change of e-mail kate.zirkle@ppsat.org i Project Narrative for 2964 Hydraulic Road (S.R. 743, TMP 61-13A Albemarle County, VA) Project Proposal The purpose of this project is to enhance the exterior plantings, hardscape and fencing at 2964 Hydraulic road. This will improve the visual presentation of the property for both pedestrian and vehicular traffic along Hydraulic Road. It will also improve screening and current landscape plantings for the neighboring residential lots. This will create no change in the character or intent of the Zoning Ordinance. The only changes in safety, public health and general welfare will be positive. (healthier plants and safer fencing). Staff, clients and operational hours will not change. Planned Parenthood (the Owners) proposes to enhance and repair the current site at 2964 Hydraulic Road. The site was initially approved by special use permit 2000-35 for the Roslyn Ridge Offices. That special use permit required an undisturbed buffer strip of fifteen feet along both abutting property lines with existing vegetation being retained and a six-foot high opaque fence between the parking lot and the Townwood units. What follows is a narrative of the proposed changes to the buffer strips, establishing a courtyard in lieu of three parking spaces, new plantings on the Hydraulic Road side and refurbishing the biofiltration basin. Townwood buffer: The fence within this buffer has aged and is in need of replacement. The Owners will replace the fence with a new six-foot high opaque fence made of pressure treated wood. The vertical post will be 4" x 4"posts placed eight feet on center and installed three feet six inches in the ground for stability. Infill between the posts will be 2' x 4" vertical studs placed four feet on center. The vertical members will be covered with 1" thick clear pressure treated pine (stained) attached horizontally with no gaps between the boards. The width of the boards will narrow as they ascend in height. The bottom boards will be 5 '/2", next 4 1/2"top boards 3 1/2". The fence will be capped with a 2" x 6"board sloped to the rear to shed water. The fence will follow the current fence alignment, with two sections offset an additional two feet. The two offsets will allow the existing tree to remain, will help strengthen the fence and create a visual break over the expanse of the parking area. We propose to clean up the existing tree planting by removing three compromised trees (dead, growing too close to one another and leaning over the fence and parking) as indicated on the plans. The relocation of the fence will allow for plantings on both sides: on the parking lot side a two foot wide groundcover planting of Carex Pennsylvanica will allow for parked car overhang. Two types of shrubs will be (/ cuon,, planted in an alternatin attern alon the new fence . An evergreen row of six foot tall interthurVfhe Vibernum planting will be mirrored in the two offset areas on the Townwoo units side for additional screenin of the fence and site om ownwoo�rp pert P� *Pictures of existing fence and buffer line attachedNo cgs ol (-)1 p,-,v, A5�7ULtU c'ti� �1 l Lit .oe Page 2 Garden Court buffer: The existing trees have been compromised by English ivy. All the trees exhibit a high branching pattern and do not provide sufficient screening between the two properties. This area is also overgrown with invasives including Japanese honeysuckle, privet and Rosa rugosa. The owners propose to cut remove the invasive understory of Japanese honeysuckle, privet and Rosa rugosa. Eight of the trees have been identified for removal and replacement in the planted buffer and will be replaced by an equivalent or greater number of trees, see planting plans. Two of the trees are cypress of three inch caliper that compromise the dumpster enclosure. There are three trees with snapped tops, including an invasive mimosa tree. Three trees conflict with the courtyard layout and will be replaced with five native serviceberry trees and a red maple in the courtyard. The entire buffer will be replanted with native species of understory trees, shrubs and perennials to create a more effective screening for Garden Court. The existing dumpster will remain with a new barrier fence to match the Townwood fencing provided to block its view. The Owners propose to install a courtyard in lieu of the three existing parking spaces at the Garden Court end of the parking area. A corner of this courtyard will extend into the buffer eight feet maintaining seven feet from the property line. The courtyard will have an eighteen inch concrete retaining seat wall with a wooden slats for permanent seating at the west end of the courtyard. Five Amelanchier Arborea(8' ht) will be planted on the Garden Court side of the seat for screening. The groundplane behind the seat wall will be planted with native shrubs and,lerennials. In the center of the courtyard will be an Acer Rubrum, planted at four inch capper. It will also provide additional screening and shade for the courtyard. A wooden fence, matching the Townwood property fence, with gate will be installed on the North end to limit access to the utility side of the Owner's building. A wooden bench will be installed on the East side of the courtyard. The paving will be alternating areas (two each) of concrete pavers and bluestone. The pavers will be Hanover prestige pavers, tudor finish, Matrix 1025, pattern & size tbd. The Bluestone will be Blue/blue grade 2"thickness, tight fit 12"X 36"thermal finish. Both pavers and bluestone will be set over VDOT#21A compacted base with sand setting bed.A portion of the southern perimeter will be planted with four foot tall Itea virginica to screen the courtyard from the parking and dumpster area. Loss of the three parking spaces for the courtyard fits within the guidelines of the required parking. Total usable square footage of the building is 6,686.69 square feet (80% = 5349.35; div 200 =26.75 spaces). The property currently has 30 spaces. The Owner would like to eliminate 3 for a total of 27. *Pictures of existing Garden Court trees and future courtyard site attached Hydraulic Road border: The Owners propose to add a wooden fence and gate at the west end of the building to limit access to utility side(Garden Court side) of the building. They also propose removing the azaleas from the front of the building since they are not performing NNW 14111111Y Page 3 well and replacing them with a hedge of Itea Virginica; interspersing the existing Willow oaks with an understory planting of dogwoods, redbuds and serviceberries to reflect the native palette of the region; a secondary hedge of Viburnum Pregense (4' ht) on the Hydraulic Road side of the Willow oaks and a low 24"maximum tall planting of Rus Aromatica"gro-low" at the edge of the sidewalk. The existing lawn will be planted with spring flowering crocuses. *Pictures of existing Hydraulic Road site line attached Biofiltration Basin: The Owners propose to clean up the invasive and overgrown vegetation and remove an existing, self seeded four inch caliper hackberry in the biofiltration basin. The biofiltration filter will be interplanted with native moisture and drought tolerant shrubs and perennials. The proposal is to plant one additional Willow oak adjacent to the basin to continue the tree palette from the front of the building and add a hedge of Viburnum pregense (four foot height) in front of the basin to improve screening of the parking lot from Hydraulic Road>A hedge of Rhus aromatica"grow-low" at the sidewalk will integrate both sides of the entrance to the property, while allowing clear site lines for turning vehicles. *Pictures of existing Biofiltration basin attached Consistency With Comprehensive Plan This proposal has no apparent inconsistencies with the Comprehensive Plan goal or objectives. This site is within Neighborhood 1 of Places 29 and has a comprehensive plan designation of Urban Density Residential which supports offices and service uses. Impacts On Public Facilities and Public Infrastructure The proposal calls for the elimination of three parking spaces to create a small courtyard for employees and clients. Intent is to enhance the area next to the Garden Court structures and allow for a small exterior area for families to relax and be outside. We have attached calculations for the parking area based on interior square footage of the building. These calculations support the removal of the three space from 30 spaces to 27. The current exterior lighting will remain; no changes. A barrier fence will be installed to hide the dumpster. It will remain in its current location. Impacts on Environmental Features All environmental features will be enhanced through this proposed project. Existing trees and shrubs that have been inspected by arborists and deemed at risk will be treated and/or removed and replaced by healthy plants and trees. More shrubs and trees will be added to aid the visual concept of the site as well as screening for the neighbors. The biofiltration basin will be replanted with native species and its function restored.
