RE: SDP 2008 -00134 — Request to vary Application Plan for The Meadows
Expansion (ZMA 2003 -0005)
Dear Mr. Smith:
The County has received your variation request referenced above. The variation request
includes three items:
1. Use of other stormwater management methods in place of biofilters;
2. The placement of a stormwater management facility in the area shown as a yard
on the application plan between buildings 10 and 11;
3. The location of parking to serve buildings 8 and 9.
We have determined that only the third item needs a variation. This variation allows for
the relocation of parking that serves buildings 8 and 9, as labeled on the attachments
provided, from a central location between the two buildings to separate parking lots
behind each building. This letter serves to provide approval of the variation in keeping
with the layout of parking and buildings as shown on the final site plan for the project,
SDP 2008 - 00134.
The analysis of the variation request is provided below:
Section 8.5.5.3 (a.2) allows the director to grant a variation of an approved plan for
changes to the arrangement of buildings and uses shown on the plan, provided that the
major elements shown on the plan and their relationships remain the same. The following
are the five criteria used to determine that this variation request is acceptable and the
response to each:
1) The variation is consistent with the goals and objectives of the
comprehensive plan. It is in keeping with the Comprehensive Plan..
The Meadows Variation
March 31, 2009
2) The variation does not increase the approved development density or
intensity of development. No increase in density or intensity is proposed
with the variation request for only minor layout changes.
3) The variation does not adversely affect the timing and phasing of
development of any other development in the zoning district. Timing and
phasing is not affected by the variation request.
4) The variation does not require a special use permit. No special use permit
is required.
5) The variation is in general accord with the purpose and intent of the
approved rezoning application. It is in general accordance with the rezoning
application and represents a minor change to the arrangement of parking
only. The major features and elements shown on the application plan and
their relationships remain the same and parking lots will be relegated behind
the buildings.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Rebecca
Ragsdale or myself at 296 -5823 Ext. 3439.
Sincerely,
4an 9 ilimberg

4. Does the variation require a special use permit?
No, it does not.
5. Is it in general accord with the purpose and intent of the approved rezoning application?
Yes, definitely. The intent was to show to the PC and BOS that water quality and the
protection of the state waters would be protected. We just chose another method to do
this.
Ttem A.l B� Buldm 8 rl�ht or north side of Meadows Drlve)
Description: The Application Plan shows a double loaded parking lot with two (2) quad
buildings. The site plan indicates two (2) single loading parking lots, each
serving a quad building.
Reason: The preliminary topographic information that was used for the rezoning is based
on 5 -foot contours. It indicated a broad swale in the area. But at the time I
thought the runoff could be redirected around the new units. When the field run
topography was performed at 2- contours for final design it was best to separate
the units. Moving both units towards Crozet Avenue weren't acceptable to the
ARB. The project originally indicated another pair of quads nearer Crozet Ave.,
but we were asked to remove them. They liked the open field. There was not
enough space to locate them on the west side of the Swale.
Is the variation consistent with the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan?
Yes, I see no reference that would not allow this variation.
2. Does the variation increase the approved development density or intensity of
development?
No change. Same density. Same intensity.
3. Does the variation adversely affect the timing and phasing of development of any other
development in the zoning district?
No effect.
4. Does the variation require a special use permit?
No, it does not.
5. Is it in general accord with the purpose and intent of the approved rezoning application?
Yes, definitely.

Project: WPO- 2008-00091, SDP - 2008 - 00134; The Meadows Expansion
Plan preparer: Brian Smith, PE
Owner or rep.: Jordan Development Corporation
Plan received date: 09 September 2008
Date of comments: 21 October 2008 _
Reviewer. (-Phil Custet
The major major site plan amendment, SWM, and ESC plans for The Meadows Expansion, submitted on
9 September 2008, have been reviewed. The plans cannot be approved as submitted and will
require the following changes:
General Review (SDP - 2008 - 00134)
1. To engineering review, there appear to be several discrepancies between this plan and the
approved rezoning plan. The discrepancies am listed below:
A. The rezoning plan states that biofilters will be used on site. No biofilters were provided in this
site plan amendment.
B. The location, orientation, and parking of building 8 do not match.
C. In the application plan, a yard was proposed between buildings 10 and 11. SWM facility 2 is
currently proposed in that location.
D. SWM facility 3 has been placed in an area reserved for a future interparcel connection. This
facility should be relocated
The Planning Department will need to determine whether the plan is consistent with the approved
rezoning plan. If it is found to be not in general accord with the plan, a determination must be
made by the Zoning Department whether these deviations from the approved ZMA plan can
possibly be approved throw a variation by the Director of Planning
2. Please provide the date or tee topograpnic survey.
3. Please show the stream buffer lines on all applicable sheets. v 7 0
4. VDOT approval is required. 'VDOT approval has not been received at this time. As indicated in
the rezoning plan, a left turn lane on northbound Crozet Avenue maybe required.• > I T 5 N O
r
B. Major Site Plan Amendment (SDP -2008- 00134)
1. Slopes steeper than 3:1 require a low maintenance, non - grassed groundcover.
2. Please show all necessary signage.
3. Concentrated discharge appears to be n ming across mveral sections of the walking path/sidewalk.
Engineering review tt c ommmends that the walking path be placed uphill of the outfalls for Basins 2
and 3 and a drop inlet to be added at the northern corner of building 20 to prevent direct
stormwater discharge across tbese pedestrian areas.
4. Please provide a channel from the existing culvert west of building 8 around the fill for the parking
lot.
5. It appears private sanitary sewer easements ate needed for several laterals as they crofts property
lines.
6. The plan is mztissiog a few drainage easements. Drainage easements are necessary for pipes
