Re: Stonefield Block C2-1
Special Exception — Residential Units
The purpose of the Special Exception is to request the transfer of 73 allotted residential units at
Stonefield from Block E to Blocks A through D. The transfer of the allotted units will permit for
the construction of a new 112 unit residential building on Block C2-L
The Land Use Table (Table 1) on Page 48 of the Code of Development for Stonefield establishes
the maximum number of allowable residential units within the designated blocks. Blocks A
through D have a designated maximum of 475 allowable residential units. Block E has a
designated maximum of 450 allowable residential units. A chart is provided below displaying
the number of residential units that have been constructed/approved and the units remaining for
Blocks A through E at this time.

There are 39 remaining residential units allocated for Blocks A through D. As initially stated we
are requesting the transfer of 73 residential units from Block E to Blocks A through D to allow
for the construction of a new 112 unit residential building on Block C2-1. We offer the
following justification for this request:
The construction of a residential component at this location with the proximity to the
existing commercial uses meets the intent of the Code of Development and the
neighborhood model.

2. The proposed residential building will offer uniformity and compliment the height of the
existing and soon to be construction buildings at the intersection of Bond Street and
District Ave.
3. The total number of residential units are necessary to obtain the proper size for business
operational and development purposes.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding this request.

PROJECT: SE202100025 Stonefield Block C2-1 - Residential Units
TAX MAP PARCELS: 061WO-03-00-019A0
Special exception request to vary the Code of Development approved in conjunction with ZMA200100007.
Proposal
The applicant requests a special exception to vary the Stonefield Code of Development approved in
conjunction with ZMA200100007 to transfer 73 allotted residential units from Block E to Blocks A
through D. The transfer of the units would permit the construction of a new 112-unit residential building
on Block C2-1. The land use table on Page 48 of the Code of Development establishes the maximum
number of allowable residential units within the designated blocks. Blocks A-D have a designated
maximum of 475 units, of which 436 have been built. Block E has an allocated 450 residential units, of
which only 250 have been built. This special request is to transfer 73 of those remaining 200 units to
Blocks A-D.
ANALYSIS OF SPRCiAL EXCEPTION REQUEST
Under County Code § 18-33.9(A), requests for special exceptions are reviewed under the criteria from the
applicable section(s) of the Zoning Ordinance. No specific findings are required in support of a decision. Under
County Code § 18-8.5.5.3(b), an applicant may request variation(s) from its Code of Development. Supporting
factors are listed in County Code § 18-8.5.5.3(c). The applicant's request (Attachment A) addresses these
findings in detail.
Staff offers the following analysis of the proposed variation against these criteria:
(1) Whether the proposed variation would be consistent with the goals and objectives of the comprehensive
plan;
This special exception request is consistent with many of the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan
including creating vibrant active places with attractive neighborhoods, high quality design, and mixed -use areas
supported by services, infrastructure, and multi -modal transportation networks.
(2) Whether the proposed variation would increase the approved development density or intensity of
development;
The transferring of residential units from one block to another would have no density or intensity of development
impacts.
(3) Whether the proposed variation would adversely affect the timing and phasing of development of any
other development in the zoning district;
This special exception would not have any impact on the timing or phasing of any other development in the
zoning district.
(4) Whether the proposed variation would require a special use permit; and
A special use permit would not be required.
(5) Whether the proposed variation would be in general accord with the purpose and intent of the approved
application.
The purpose and intent of the Stonefield Code of Development is a Neighborhood Model District that promotes
flexibility and creativity, establishing the locations of buildings, building types, and uses within the district.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Board adopt the attached Resolution (Attachment D) to approve the special
exception request varying the Code of Development to transfer 73 allotted residential units from Block
E to Blocks A through D, subject to the following condition:
1. All development must be in accord with the Applicant's Narrative on Stonefield Block C2-1 -
