I appreciate you involving us in this discussion. To recap my understanding, the proffer amendment is due to two
factors:
First, the finalized Berkmar Extension location is further west than initially anticipated which has reduced the
available acreage of the proffered school parcel by about 2 acres.
Second, the planned location of the Rio Mills connector road needs to be located farther south than anticipated to
achieve necessary sight lines and distances. The connector, which is of interest to the BOS and in the comp. plan,
would not be feasible if not in this new location. This move divides the school parcel in two which impacts the likely
location of athletic fields.
If that understanding is accurate our response is as follows:
It would be our preference to have an undivided parcel, however a pedestrian walkway, tunnel, or crosswalk
controlled by traffic lights could mitigate our concerns about access to athletic fields on the north side of the
connector road. We also request consideration for a curb cut on the north side of the road to allow for future
parking for the fields above the connector road. We also request a shared use of storm water facilities with the road
construction in order to maximize available acreage of the school site.
Please let me know if you need anything further from us.
Thanks again for including us!

Hi Rosalyn,
I am following up on the discussion from our meeting last week regarding the Brookhill proffer amendment and
proposed acreage reduction to the high school property. Did your colleague who handles facilities for ACPS provide any
input on the acreage reduction and whether it would be acceptable to move forward with the proffer amendment as
proposed?
Please let me know your thoughts. I appreciate all of your assistance on this one.
Thanks,
Cameron
