We are requesting a special exception from this requirement to increase the maximum number of stories to 7 to allow for the construction of proposed 112 unit residential development on Block C2-1. We note that the proposed development will comply with the maximum building height for residential and mixed -use structures of 90 feet. We offer the following justification for this request: The existing Hyatt building and the approved Stonefield D1 building, located on the opposite side of District Ave., are both 6 stories in height on Bond Street. The Stonefield D 1 building ranges between 6 and 8 stories along District Ave. 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 floors is necessary to allow for 5 stories of residential units above 2 stories of parking to accommodate the parking requirements. 4. The total number of stories and 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. Sincerely, WW Associates, Inc. John D. Beirrie, Jr., P.E.

Proposal The applicant requests a special exception to vary the Stonefield Code of Development approved in conjunction with ZMA200100007 to increase the maximum number of stories permitted in Block C from 5 stories to 7. The increase in the number of maximum stories would permit the construction of a new 112-unit residential building on Block C2-1. Section 20A.5.i.5 on Page 22 of the Code of Development states that the maximum number of stories for buildings located in Block C shall be 5 stories. This request is for a special exception to increase the maximum number of stories from 5 to 7. The proposed building contains 112 residential units distributed across 5 stories over 2 stories of parking. The proposed building would meet the maximum building height of 90 feet for residential and mixed -use structures. 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 finding is required in support of a decision. Under County Code § 18-8.5.5.3(b), an applicant may request a variation 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.
