Subject: PreApp Notes for Berkmar Overlook
If you're sending comments, here are my notes.
1. Interconnectivity to the southwestern parcel of the Berkmar Overlook apartments will be required. This may
cause some issues with VDOT, as the Swede Street connection into TMP 45-82 currently would conned a
public street to a private parking lot/thruway.
2. Density — the proposed density of 62 units, or approximately 17.61 units per acre, would require rezoning
and the use of density bonuses. No other uses are proposed on this plan. As the comprehensive plan
designates these parcels as "Office / R & D / Flex / Light Industrial," the primary use of the parcel is not
intended to be residential. Residential is permitted as a secondary use, but is not generally considered
supportive of the intended comprehensive plan designation of the parcel.
a. The proposed rezoning of the parcel is unlikely to be supported due to is inconsistency with the
comprehensive plan.
b. The proposed use of bonus densities is also unlikely to be supported due to its inconsistency
with the comprehensive plan. Section 2.4 of the Zoning Ordinance describes the intent of bonus
factors as "The provision of bonus factors is intended to encourage development which reflects
the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan. To this end, bonus factors are based on
development standards as recommended by the comprehensive plan."
To this end, bonus factors are unlikely to be supported or approved. Additionally,
the Berkmar Overlook subdivision directly to the south was denied the use of bonus factors in
their density calculations, as noted in their review comments:
18- 2.4, Comp Plan, 32.5. 2(A), 14- 302(A)(8)] Bonus Factors. Residential density bonuses are not available
for these parcels. The maximum number of residential units that will be allowed on for this development will
be those allowed for the R-6 zoning without the use of any bonuses. Reduce the number of residential units
to 6 units per acre. The Comp Plan does not designate residential as a primary use in Office/ Research &
Development ( R& D)/Flex/ Light Industrial areas. 2.4 states " The provision of bonus factors is intended to
encourage development which reflects the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan. Residential
density bonuses are not available in areas where the Comprehensive Plan does not designate residential as a
primary use.
3. The by -right residential developments to the southwest, Berkmar Overlook, was approved with
site plans developed under by -right density, with zero bonus densities approved.
