This meeting satisfies the requirement for a pre -application meeting prior to submittal of your Special Use Permit (SP) application. The purpose for the meeting is summarized below in italics, followed by staff s comments. (i) provide the applicant and the county a common understanding of the proposed project; • Applicant proposes to demolish front portion of existing building and establish parking for outdoor sales/storage/display of 146 vehicles between remaining building and Rt. 29. Building fagade would be renovated. Remaining rear portion of building would be used for vehicle sales and service. (h) inform the applicant about the proposedproject's consistency with the comprehensive plan, other relevant policies, and county regulations; • This property is designated for Commercial Mixed Use in Places29. Primary uses include commercial, retail, employment uses, with supporting residential, office or institutional uses. The landscaped development frontage requirement should be addressed in the SP application. • Outdoor sales, storage, and display in the Entrance Corridors require a Special Use Permit. • The Special Use Permit application will be reviewed for consistency with the Neighborhood Model. The proposal increases the distance between the street and the building and emphasizes parking and paved areas. This is not consistent with the NMI). • The principles of pedestrian orientation, pedestrian -friendly development, buildings and spaces of human scale, and relegated parking are particularly important in this instance, and also have relevance in terms of Entrance Corridor review. (iii) broadly identify the planning, zoning and other issues raised by the application that need to be addressed by the applicant • The proposed use is identified as Section 24.2.1 (25): Motor vehicle sales, service and rental. Which will require a special use permit for any outdoor storage and display (Sec. 30.6.3.a (2b): The following uses shall be permitted by special use permit in the EC overlay district: Outdoor storage, display and/or sales serving or associated with a permitted use ..). • The concept plan shows what is typically considered to be a "sea of parking". This is not a positive attribute in the Entrance Corridors. • All display lots require appropriate treatment of display spaces and vehicles in those spaces (striped spaces, no elevated vehicles, no excessive lighting, adequate landscaping). • Coordination with VDOT on entrances/access and truck delivery circulation is required. Address VDOT entrance standards in the application. • Refer to ordinance section 5.1.31 for supplementary regulations for body shops. • If the new proposed parking leads to revisions to parking on the existing Malloy dealership site, a site plan amendment (or LOR) may be required. (iv) inform the applicant about the applicable procedure; • A Special Use Permit is required for the outdoor sales/storage/display use. An application for a new SP should be submitted (not an amendment to the previous SP). (Submittal and review schedules are available here. The SP application is available here.) • Comments from the ARB are required for the Special Use Permit review, prior to forwarding to the Planning Commission. The applicant should submit an ARB application, at the same time as the Special Use Permit application (or earlier). Proposed conceptual architectural designs are required. It is recommended that the application not move forward to the PC without a positive ARB recommendation. • If the applicant is aware of any waivers or modifications that will be needed to implement the proposed development, we recommend that those requests be submitted with the SP application. • A Community Meeting will be required for this proposal. Guidelines are provided at the end of this letter. • If the Special Use Permit(s) is approved, a site plan/site plan amendment will be required, as well as additional ARB review. (v) allow the Director ofplanning to identify the information the applicant must submit with the application, pursuant to Section 33.33. Receiving the relevant supplemental information will allow the application to be comprehensively and effliciently reviewed. • An SP application(s), fee, and attached Special Use Permit Checklist. The checklist will need to be filled in, signed and submitted with the SP application. Also see the "Required Attachments" on the Special Use Permit application form. • An ARB application with submittals meeting the ARB checklist requirements. • Appropriate signatures: Consult the "Authorized Signatories for Land Use Applications" for important signature information. • Identification of all parking spaces by type (employee, customer, display, vehicles awaiting repair, etc.). • Show conceptual landscaping plan with sufficient landscaping to mitigate the "sea of parking". Other issues discussed in the pre-app: Directional sign on vacant parcel: The proposed off site directional sign would require a separate submittal and must be in accordance with Section 4.15.7(5igns authorized by special use permit; of -site directional signs ...) and other applicable regulations. Boundary line adjustment: Outdoor display requires a sales office on site. The need for a boundary line adjustment was discussed relative to the parking spaces on 45-112B1.
