RE: ZMA 02-008 South Pantops Office Preliminary Site Plan
Dear Mr. Miller:
The staff has reviewed your recently submitted rezoning proposal referenced above. The
following paragraphs and pages provide comments that are designed to provide information and
suggestions for this rezoning.
Please be advised that this project is scheduled for a Planning Commission public hearing on
October 1, 2002. The staff would like to provide a second set of comments to you on this project
prior to your final submittal of plans for the rezoning. In order to provide a second set of
comments, staff needs to have your second submittal of plans and a first draft of proffers no later
than August 12, 2002. Staff will then comment on that second draft on August 23, 2002. The
absolute last day for you to submit new plans and proffers will be September 3, 2002.
Comments from the Planning Department are below. Comments from Building Codes and
Zoning Services, Fire and Rescue, Engineering, VDOT, and the Service Authority are provided
on the attached pages.
The following Planning Department comments are meant to inform you about what the County
expects in terms of development design and provide very detailed suggestions on how you might
be able to rethink this project and how closely it compares to the Neighborhood Model. The
following is a list of the Principles with staff suggestions underneath.
1
p
Principles of the Neighborhood Model:
Pedestrian Orientation
It is not clear how you proposed to move pedestrians throughout the site,to adjoining sites and
out to the public road.
• It would be helpful if you show and label proposed sidewalks (sidewalks which the developer
will build with this project and existing sidewalks so that staff can see how the pedestrian
system will work.
• It is strongly recommended that a pedestrian path(s)be provided which connects the two
buildings.
• It is strongly recommended that you provide crosswalks at your parking lot intersections
along Hansen Road. These crosswalks will aid pedestrians to other sites within the shopping
center.
• All sidewalks along Hansen Road should be 5'wide and concrete with a 5'planting strip
which abuts Hansen.
Neighborhood Friendly Streets and Paths
Staff sees this as a strong pedestrian orientated commercial neighborhood center. However, this
layout does not contribute to the friendliness/safety of the streets. On an aesthetic realm, the
parking layout you are proposing, with spaces next to the street makes it appear as though there is
more asphalt than green space.
• It is strongly recommended, at the very least, that the buildings be moved to the front of the
site so that their faces are along Hansen and not a parking lot.
• A planting strip along the road with sidewalks closer to the buildings is more appealing in
terms of feelings of safety to pedestrians and the streetscape. It is strongly recommended that
Hansen is shown with a 5'planting strip abutting the curb with 5' sidewalks behind. Both
buildings should be accessed by the parking lots from behind.
• A design concept which may help the streetscape is a strong, steady, and even build-to line
along all the streets. In other words, the principal orientation of the front façade of all
buildings should be parallel or nearly parallel to the streets they face.
Interconnected Streets and Transportation Networks
• Staff has been investigating the possibility of building a connector road from the end of
Rolkin Drive westward across the southern end of your property. It appears that this road
would not affect the layout of your proposal. Would you be interested in conveying the land
for such a project through a proffer?
• CTS (Charlottesville Transit Service)provides service to this area. It is strongly
recommended that you provide a bus shelter for public use on this site. Consideration should
be given to a bus pull-in lane in front of the shelter so that stopped buses do not interrupt
traffic along Hansen Road.
• See recommendations from VDOT.
2
, ,'� .
' , '
Parks and Open Space
• The opportunities for useable open space on this parcel are extremely limited. Staff is
requesting that you provide a plan showing existing wooded areas/conditions so that we can
assess if any opportunities for meaningful open space exist.
• A good amenity to this development and future occupants/employees would be the inclusion
of some form of useable open space for either passive-recreation and/or gathering/lunching
purposes. Consider adding a shaded courtyard with tables and chairs, etc.
Neighborhood Centers
N/A- this is a neighborhood center.
Buildings and Spaces of Human Scale
It appears that the proposed building to lot ratio is very small because of the large amount of
"natural" open space. This is acceptable.
Relegated Parking
As stated earlier, it is staffs opinion that this particular proposed layout does not accomplish this
Neighborhood Model edict- all but a few of the parking spaces can be seen from internal primary
roads.
• Staffs strongest recommendation is to move the buildings closer to the street and place the
parking behind the building.
Mixture of Uses
N/A
Mixture of Housing Types and Affordability
N/A
Redevelopment Rather Than Abandonment
N/A
Site Planning That Respects Terrain
Manmade or not, it appears that your proposal will encroach on a large area of critical slopes
which would require a waiver from the Planning Commission.
• A repositioning of the buildings might alleviate some of this encroachment. The parking lots
can be repositioned around these slopes.
Clear Edges
N/A
Additional Information Needed
Elevations: The Planning Commission has an expectation that elevations will be provided with
proposed developments accompanying a rezoning. When you decide on the building types for the
3
, •
parcels, please provide elevations and consider proffering characteristics of those elevations.
Cross sections will better help staff make alternate design recommendations. In addition to
elevations, this site will be highly visible from the Entrance Corridor. Staff believes that the
Commission will be concerned with the visibility of your buildings. As part of your landscaping
plan,we suggest that you provide larger trees than would normally be expected on a typical site
so that the building will not be so obvious.
Existing conditions: According to submitted application plan, you are not proposing to save any
existing environmental features. In assessing whether there are any environmental features to be
saved, it would be helpful to know what exists on the site currently. Please include a sheet which
shows the existing tree line and generally categorize the types of trees, show and identify all
individual trees over 6" in caliper.
Surrounding neighborhood: Please show and label properties (with at least tax map parcel
numbers and existing uses), topography and features for properties lying within 200' of your
property in all directions. This will help staff assess how your proposal fits into the surrounding
neighborhood and the terrain/densities/amenities/connections contained within.
Monticello Viewshed: Your project lies in the Monticello viewshed, the County is obligated,
through the Comprehensive Plan and proffers associated with the shopping center,to work with
Monticello to protect this significant historical resource. Please contact Kat Imhoff at 984-9802
so that she can review your plans and comment on whether their viewshed is affected. Again, the
use and placement of trees will be an important issue.
ARB: Staff would like advisory comments from the Architectural Review Board before we make
a recommendation to the Planning Commission. Please contact Margaret Maliszewski at 296-
5823 for advice.
Proffers: My impression from your submittal is that you are requesting this rezoning with
proffers. The plan provided with this submittal could be proffered with this rezoning. Please be
advised that the level of variation from the plan would be entirely within the purview of the
Zoning Administrator. The Planning Director could not approve variations to the plan. For that
reason, if you proffer the plan, it is important that you highlight the features that are essential to
the design and development. Proffers have traditionally been used by developers to promise
elements of the plan that are normally not allowed by right-things like variations in setback,
certain architectural details/features,public infrastructure improvements, etc.
Some standard language for proffers is provided below:
1. Development of the parcel shall be in general accord with the (application)plan entitled "xx"
dated"xx"and last revised"xx"(where applicable)herein referred to as"The Plan" Specific
features of The Plan which are proffered are:
a. spell out the feature, such as, "a central amenity", relegated parking as shown on the plan.
pedestrian access as shown, etc.
2. Conformity with the following features of the elevations entitled"xx" dated"xx".
3. Screening for the full-length of the northern boundary of the site where the parcel adjoins
4
r.
with TM 91 Parcel 13 (if considered necessary by the Schools Division).
4. Sidewalks consisting of(specs - asphalt or concrete) shall be installed(where
specifically) and completed before release of the performance bond.
5. Where site grading is performed, the owner shall minimize use of slopes steeper than 3:1,
subject to approval by the Department of Engineering and Public Works. The Applicant
shall install additional low maintenance vegetation to provide stabilization for proposed
slopes steeper than 3:1 as approved by the County's Landscape Planner. Nothing
contained in these proffers shall be deemed a waiver of the Planning Commission's
review of Applicant's critical slope waiver under Section 4.2.5 of the Ordinance.
6. The Owner shall limit the number of residential units on the parcel to "xx"residential
units.
7. (If you want to make a cash proffer or off-site improvement)By not later than(some
point in time or key event), the owner shall provide to the County(cash for a County
improvement relating to the rezoning or and off-site improvement). Should (that
improvement)not take place within the next(specific time period) from the approved
proffer date, it shall be refunded to (whom?).
Should you have any questions please call me at (434) 296-5823 ext. 3297.
Sincerely,
Micha es a 'ra arante

ZMA 02-01: Fontaine Condos,Route 702
Based on our field review of Route 702, we recommend the developer trench widen the shoulders 5 feet where
possible from the site to the eastern ramps. The widening should remove the shoulder material to a depth of 6
inches and replace with 4 inches of base asphalt (BM-25) and 2 inches of surface asphalt (SM-9.5A).
Bycicle and pedestrian facilities crossing Morey Creek, such as a separate bridge or improvements to the
existing structure, should be provided. Bicycle racks should be provided.
The site should be designed to accommodate bus service.
If there are any questions or concerns, please advise.

Zoning ZMA 02-08 revision 2
reviewer received reviewed decision
Jan Sprinkle 6/24/02 7/29/02
This department has no objections to the requested change on the application plan "Area#7"from a 100-
room hotel to two 2-story office buildings. A condition of approval should be, "No building permits for
these office buildings shall be issued until an amended application plan is received in the Building Code
and Zoning Services Department." The plan may remain exactly as it currently is with the exception of
the wording in the area "bubble" changed from "Hotel, #7 - 100 rooms" to"Office space#7 - max
44,000sgft."
If other departments request an application plan change to reflect the existing conditions (gas
station/convenience store/restaurant/office and food store/shell retail), this department has no objection,
but the plan should be reviewed and approved by all concerned departments to insure that the"as is"
condition is reflected accurately prior to being submitted as part of the building permit application.

ZMA 02-01: Fontaine Condos,Route 702
Based on our field review of Route 702, we recommend the developer trench widen the shoulders 5 feet where
possible from the site to the eastern ramps. The widening should remove the shoulder material to a depth of 6
inches and replace with 4 inches of base asphalt (BM-25)and 2 inches of surface asphalt (SM-9.5A).
Bycicle and pedestrian facilities crossing Morey Creek, such as a separate bridge or improvements to the
existing structure, should be provided. Bicycle racks should be provided.
The site should be designed to accommodate bus service.
If there are any questions or concerns, please advise.
Sincerely,
Matthew C. Grimes, EIT
Transportation Engineer
