The landscape plan needs to be approved by staff with advice from Service Authority regarding the location of street trees over water lines. Staff feels that street trees along Riverbend Drive are important. Staff recommends white oaks or sugar maple trees in lieu of honey locust, in keeping with the street tree plan approved for Riverbend Offices . It may be necessary to eliminate one or more parking spaces to allow room for the trees . RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1.

Mary Joy - These are my notes for tonight - I came by late this afternoon to go over our positions with you, but missed you. Don /problems We have two minor and one more substantive problem with the recommended conditions of approval: 1) The County Attorney has previously approved our shopping center maintenance and cross entrance agreements, so the conditions, if any is necessary, should be for the Burger King site to be subject to this agreement. 2) The staff report states that fire flaw is 2,000 gpm and that the Fire Marshall's requirement is 1,250 gpm. It follows that approval is automatic, and should not be a condition placed on us. 3) Our main concern is with the proposed closing of the first parking bay entrance. This requirement is not appropriate and is not consistent with other uses in the immediate area or elsewhere. For example, Hardee's on New House Drive,' First Virginia Bank on Riverbend Drive, and the office buildings under construction across fran us on Riverbend Drive all have parking ;imiliar to that we propose. There are other examples all over the area, including such high traffic sites as Wendy's on 29 north. I believe this suggestion came about because at first glance the entrance for this site and the site next door looks too much like a main road. It is not. As you can see from the two colored drawings, our original plan for the Riverbend PD-SC included an entrance/AeW)to First Virginia Bank which was expected to carry half of the traffic coming to the main shopping center from the north and east, along with traffic from the north and east bound for the out-parcels on either side of that entrance road. That entrance has been eliminated, and the entrance at the South Pantops intersection increased from 2 lanes to four lanes with a median. The original entrance would have provided a straight shot to Phase II and the out parcels along Route 250. The entrance to Burger King offers no advantage over entering at the main entrance unless you are on the way to Burger King or the use which will be developed next door, and in fact will have a disadvantage as there will be a stop sign where the proposed travelway meets the riV road. The projected traffic for Burger King is 553 trip ends per day per 1000 sq.ft. , which works out to 747 entering and 747 departing vehicles. Most of these we would expect to enter from Riverbend Drive, with most departing in the other direction. Traffic entering the site next door to Burger King will presumably have the option of entering via either this proposed entrance or the joint entrance with the Colombini property to the north. The use for this property is unknown, but I know of nothing that could generate more traffic that another fast food restaurant of similiar size, suprizing and considering the other entrance it would be ORPHRF919flt if the total entering traffic reached 1,000 trips per day. The deletion of the first entrance would pose a definite problem for Burger King, and a real hardship on the property next door. This property is burdened with an easement for bank ingress/egress, and this easement, along with the building set-back requirement from Riverbend Drive dictates that the parking start at the 10 foot parking set-back line. (I will talk more about this and will also agree to have the spaces next to the entrance designated as employee spaces.)
