On March 25, 2008 the Commission accepted the applicant's request for deferral in order to provide additional information. The original March staff report is attached. The following addresses the two main areas of concern discussed at the March meeting: 1) disturbance of the buffer zone and 2) critical slope waiver. A revised site plan has been submitted to address the Commission's concerns. Revisions to the plan include: moving the wall out of the buffer, changing the screening fence to evergreen trees and reductions to building size and parking (Attachment A and site plan sheet C7). New diagrams are attached to clarify the conditions of the existing buffer, the encroachment of easements from prior approved plans onto this site and the limit of this applicant's request (Attachments D, E and G). 1) Disturbance of the buffer zone between residential and commercial: The Whitehouse site plan has been revised so that the walls are not in the buffer. The plan addresses the required screening in the buffer with a double row of screening trees, as allowed in Section 32.7.9.8. A sidewalk connection between the residential area and the Whitehouse commercial development, as requested by the County, crosses the buffer. Staff recommends approval of the waver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone (Section 21.7.3 analysis follows). 2) Critical Slope waiver: The Whitehouse site plan will disturb existing critical slopes and therefore requires a Critical Slope Waiver, as discussed in the March staff report. A slope waiver analysis and additional graphics are included in this letter to clarify the limits of disturbance by the Whitehouse site plan. A large portion of the site is already disturbed, or allowed to be disturbed, as allowed by easements given to other approved projects. Staff recommends approval of the critical slopes waiver. (Section 4.2.5 analysis follows) Recommended actions: A) Approve the waiver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone B) Approve the critical slope waiver request 1. WAIVER TO ALLOW LAND DISTURBANCE IN A BUFFER BETWEEN ZONING DISTRICTS Section 21.7.3 provides the method of requesting a waiver: "Bu%kr zona utljacent to residential and rural areas districts: No constniction activity including grading or clearing gf'vegetation shall occur closer than rirenty (20) feet to arty residential or rural areas district. Screening shall be provided as required in section 32.79. Except, the comn1iSSiOn tmv waive this requirement in a particular case where it has been demonstrated that grading or clearing is necessat:v or would result in an improved site design, provided that: u. Mininnan screening requirements are met; and h. Existing landscaping in excess of'inininnun rcquirementc is substantially restored. " Disturbance in a Buffer Zone Waiver: The applicant has revised the plan to minimize the disturbance in the buffer zone. The current plan shows a wall outside of the buffer. This wall will have a railing at the top which supplements screening. The wall currently proposed has a maximum height of 10 feet. The improvements proposed within the buffer are the screening trees required by code and a pedestrian path. A large portion of the buffer strip along the Whitehouse property line will be disturbed and vegetation removed by drainage and grading casements granted to other approved developments, such that approximately 22 % of the length will contain existing vegetation (Attachment E). The drainage easement runs up the property line starting at Rolkin Road for about 100 feet then overlaps the grading easement which runs for approximately another 130 feet, leaving only the last 65 feet undisturbed. Section 32.7.9.8 allows screening to be met by maintaining existing vegetation, the addition of a planting strip, a fence or a combination thereof. New evergreen trees are proposed to supplement the existing vegetation that remains outside of easements. The plan shows a double row of evergreen trees to provide screening in the areas where the existing vegetation is removed by other projects. The pedestrian path was the result of staff requesting an inter -parcel connection . The applicant worked with staff to find the most functional location for a path. Staff was aware that the proposed path location crosses the buffer, but supports the goal of walkablity. The proposed path connects near the road at the Pavillions and part of the path will be within the grading easement already approved for that development. (Pavilions Preliminary Site Plan approved by the Commission on March 14, 2006). The portion of the path that falls in the undisturbed area of the buffer can be located to minimize disturbance of existing vegetation. The grading and clearing required for the pedestrian connection will result in an improved design that allows inter -parcel pedestrian connectivity. The plan shows the minimum screening requirements and the existing vegetation left undisturbed by other projects will be maintained and supplemented by adding evergreen screening trees. STAFF COMMENT: Staff recommends approval of the waiver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone with one condition, Condition (1) staff approve the final alignment of the pedestrian path within the buffer zone to minimize impact on existing vegetation. 2. CRITICAL SLOPES MODIFICATION The request for a modification has been reviewed for both the Engineering and Planning aspects of the critical slopes regulations. Section 4.2.3.2 of the Zoning Ordinance restricts earth - disturbing activity on critical slopes, while Section 4.2.5(b) allows the Planning Commission to waive this restriction. The applicant has submitted a request and justification for the waiver (Attachment C) and staff has analyzed this request to address the provisions of the ordinance. Critical slopes cover approximately 0.9 acres, or approximately 15 percent of the 6.4 acre site. Roughly 75% of the critical slopes on site are exempted from needing a critical slopes waiver (0.7 acres). These critical slopes are exempted because they have already been approved for disturbance by adjacent projects under prior approved critical slopes waivers, or they were created by an approved site plan (Attachment D).This request is for approval of a waiver to allow disturbance of the remainder of the critical slopes on site, totaling 0.2 acres. The critical slopes in the area of this request appear to be natural. Staff has reviewed this waiver request with consideration for the criteria that are set forth in Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance, entitled "Critical Slopes." A request to allow disturbance of critical slopes must also be reviewed in accord with the requirements of Section 42.5. This section requires a two part analysis. Section 4.2.5(a) is a review of the technical performance standards. If these technical standards are not met the disturbance of critical slopes cannot be approved by the Planning Commission. If these technical standards are met, the Planning Commission may then consider the disturbance of critical slopes. The criteria for the Planning Commission's review of the disturbance of critical slopes are found in Section 4.2.5(b). Staff presents the analysis of the request to disturb critical slopes in two parts. Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the technical performance standards: Description of critical slope area and proposed disturbance: The non-exempt critical slope areas within TMP's 78-9 and 78-11 appear to contain natural slopes. The critical slope disturbances are in the form of commercial construction which include parking spaces, landscaped curb islands, and buildings. Areas Acres Total site area 6.4 acres approx. Total critical slopes on site 0.9 acres approx. 15 % of development Proposed critical slope disturbance, Exempt 0.7 acres approx. 75 % of critical slopes Proposed critical slope disturbance, Non-exempt 0.2 acres approx. 25 % of critical slopes, 100% of non-exempt critical slopes on site Exemptions to critical slopes waivers for driveways, roads and utilities without reasonable alternative locations: As previously mentioned, and shown in the chart above, 75% of proposed critical slope disturbance is exempt (0.7 acres) as the critical slopes shown are the result of a previously approved plan (Town & County Drive Phase II and Olympia Drive, Car Max, Luxor, Pavilions Phase I). All of the aforementioned projects received critical slope waivers for any critical slope 4 disturbance on this site. The remaining 25% of proposed critical slope disturbance is not exempt (0.2 acres). Below, each of the concerns of Zoning Ordinance section 18-4.2 is addressed: "rapid and/or large scale tnovement ofsoil and rock": The areas of existing critical slopes on this site are relatively small and scattered. There is a mixture of cut and till over the critical slopes. Large scale movement of soil and rock is not anticipated to occur as a result of this construction. 2. "excessive storniwater run-off"': The site drains to Luxor Stormwater Management Pond # 1, which has been designed to handle the runoff from the proposed site for both Stormwater Quality and Detention. 3. "siltation of natural and man-made bodies of tirater ": Inspection and bonding by the County will address siltation control during construction. Proper stabilization and maintenance will enhance long term stability. 4. "loss of aesthetic resource ": Although the disturbance will be visible from adjacent parcels and future public roadways. The Open Space Plan is used to evaluate the loss of aesthetic resource. This site has no resources identified in the Open Space Plan. Staff find that disturbance of the critical slopes on this site are not a loss of aesthetic resource. 5. "septic effluent ": No septic systems or drainfields are proposed in this project. This site is accessible to the public sanitary sewer system. This site does not drain into a waterway that is a public drinking water supply for Albemarle County. No portion of this site plan is located inside the 100 -year flood plain area according to FEMA Maps, dated 04 February 2005. Based on the above review, the applicant has satisfactorily addressed the technical criteria for the disturbance of critical slopes. Section 4.2.5(b) Recommendations on the findings that must be made by the Planninp, Commission in order to allow disturbance of critical slopes. The connnission rnav inodifv or waivc any requirement of section 4.2 in a particular case upon finding that: 1. Strict application of the requirements ofsection 4.2 tii•ould not fortiti�ard the purposes of ty ti1• this chapter or otherwise serve the public health, safeor el fare, or that alternatives proposed by the developer would satisfy the ptaposes of section 4.2 to at least all equivalent degree; or (Added 11-15-89) The property is an existing undeveloped parcel neighbored by proposed roads and residential areas to the north and east and by existing commercial areas to the south and west. The site plan indicates both cut and fill in the areas of existing critical slopes. The applicant has proposed protective and restorative measures intended to minimize erosion and siltation both during and post construction. These measures will satisfy the purpose of Section 4.2 to at least an equivalent degree. Granting the waiver forwards the purposes of this chapter by providing the type of commercial development anticipated in the development area while addressing erosion control concerns. Approval of this request would accommodate the expansion of an infill property within the development area of the Comprehensive Plan. Staff finds strict application of the requirements of Section 4.2 would not forward the purposes of this chapter in allowing commercial infill development 2. Dice to its unusual size, topography, shape of the property, location of the property or other unusual conditions, excluding the proprietary interest of the developer, the requirements of section 4.2 would effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or would result in significant degradation of the site or adjacent properties. Such modification or waiver shall not be detrimental to the public health, safety or wee /are, to the orderly development of the area, or to adjacent properties, or be contrary to sound engineering practices; or (Added 11-15-89) Denial of this modification would not prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or result in significant degradation of the site or adjacent properties. However, since the existing critical slopes occur near the middle of the site, denial would significantly alter and reduce the type of development that could occur on this site. The modification of this section will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, to the orderly development of the area or to adjacent properties, or be contrary to sound engineering practices. Granting such modification or waiver would serve a public purpose ofgreater import than would be served by strict application ofsection 4?. (Added 11 -IS -89) This property is in the development areas and represents a commercial development in accord with the Comprehensive plan designation. As such, grading the site as one unit would more effectively provide for commercial development. RECOMMENDATION: Staff review has resulted in only favorable findings: Favorable factors: 1. The measures proposed by the applicant will satisfy the purpose of Section 4.2, at least to an equivalent degree, meeting the requirement for 4.2.5 (b) (1). 2. The overall grading of the site is consistent with the type of commercial development intended for this designated commercial area, meeting the requirement for 4.2.5 (b) (3). Unfavorable factors: None found. The Planning Commission may grant the modification if it finds that the request has met at least one of the three requirements in Section 4.2.5 (b). Staff has found that the request for modification meets two of the three requirements, and therefore recommends approval. Response to Commission Questions at the PC Meetinp, 3/25/08 With responses in italics ACTION: Deferral for staff to get more information: a) What other approvals allow grading in the Whitehouse buffer? Several approved projects have easements ort the Whitehouse property (Attachment E) In regard to the requited bt ffer• between residential and commercial sites at the Pavilions/Whitehouse property line, off site drainage and grading easements tivere given to the Pavilions. This grading onto the Whitehouse site is shown on the Pavillions preliminary site plan approved by the Commission Match 14, 3006. b) What are the existing conditions in the buffer? As ofMay 5, 3008 when the property line between Pavilions and Whitehouse was staked in the field, there was onlv a small amount ofgrading on the Whitehouse site in the grading easement as shown on the preliminary site plan approved by the Commission on March 14,3006. The drainage casement has not been disturbed. The majority of the buffer strip currently consists of hardwood trees and undergrowth. (Attachment G) However, an offsite drainage easement and a grading easement were given to Pavillions and their construction is not complete. As a result of the grading easement, for Rolkin Road, the grading easement for Pavilions and the drainage easement, vegetation will only remain ort about 2 percent of the length of the property line (Attachment E). The nein evergreens proposed by the Whitehouse site plan will be planted to supplement the existing trees. c) What will be established as screening The plan proposes a double row of evergreen trees where there is no existing vegetation. As stated above, about 33 per cent of the length of'the buffer will contain the original undisturbed trees. Supplemental evergreens are proposed to be added in the areas of existing vegetation to remain. d) Will planting constitute disturbance? Staff proposed that the required double row of planting be allowed without a buffer n,aivcr since it only occurs within the areas disturbed by other• projects and thereby by need screening added. The supplemental evergreen trees that will be installed in the remaining areas of existing vegetation will be placed to minimi.7e disturbance. The pedestrian connection requested by staff at Pre -Application conference for inter parcel connectivity will be located between any existing trees and will be installed with minimal disturbance. Staff proposes that a waiver be granted to allow this path. Attachments: A. Vicinity Map B. Applicant's letter regarding plan changes and withdrawal of the buffer waiver, dated April 10, 2008 C.

APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL: Request for preliminary site plan approval for construction of conuncrcial office space in three two-story office buildings totaling 65,120 square fcct on 4.81 acres zoned 11C - highway Commercial and EC, Entrance Corridor Overlay District. "rhe property, described as Tax flap 78 Parcel 1 1 and part of Parcel 9 are located in the Rivanna Ma`risterial District on the proposed Olympia Drive in the Pantops Development :area between the Pavilions roNN nhonnes development (currently under construction), the Carltax and Free Bridge Auto sites. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: File Comprelnensixe Plan designates this property as Regional Service in Urban Area 3. REASON FOR PLANNING COMMISSION REVIENV: The applicant requests waivers to allow disturbance of critical slopes and disturbance within the buffer adjacent to residentially zoned property. PLANNING AND ZONING HISTORY: This area has been subject to multiple subdivision plats resulting in the current lot configuration. Approval of adjacent projects has extended Olympia Drive (a new public street) to this site. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission will need to act on two waiver requests. This staff report is organized to address each issue separately. "File Commission must act on both of the items. The items to be addressed are: Zoning Ordinance 1. Waiver of Section 4.2.5 —disturbance of critical slopes 2. Waiver of Section 21.7.3 — disturbance of land within a buffer zone CRITICAL SLOPES WAIVER A modification to allow critical slopes disturbance is necessary before the preliminary site plan can be approved. The request reviewed for both the Engineering and Planning aspects of the critical slopes re"ulations. Section 4.2.3.2 of the Zoning Ordinance restricts earth -disturbing actix'ity ort critical slopes, while Section 4.2.5(b) allows the Planning Commission to wane this restriction. File applicant has submitted a request and justification for the waiver (Attachment C), and staff has anal . zed this request to address the pro-, isions oft lie ordinance. Critical slopes cover approximately 0.9 Acres, or 19 percent, of the 4.8 acres included in this request. This request is to disturb 0.3 acres, or 33 percent, of these critical slopes. The critical slopes in the area of this request do not appear to be man-made. Tile deternnination of which critical slopes are man-made could not be determined. Staff has reviewed this «aiver request with consideration for the concenis that are set forth in Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance, entitled "Critical Slopes." These concerns have been addressed directly through the analysis provided herein, which is presented in two parts, based ori the Section of the Ordinance each pertains to. Applicant's Request for Critical Slopes Waiver: The Applicant states: "The Pi-eli1111nm-v 5 to Develolmient Plan 'w IT'hitehouse Commercial Shows (ilei-' at -e aI)pro.C1111tIteJV 37,650 square feet Of crib ell , II(Tes° on the 4.81 acre site.

' Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the request by Current Development Planning staff: The Open Space Plan is the primary mol used by staff to identity aesthetic resources. 'rhe maps in the Open Space Plan include inventory maps which show all resources. The composite map indicates those resources that are ofthe highest significance or are part of system forming a significant resource, such as a stream Salley or mountain range. The Open Space Plan shows "slopes > 25%" on this property on the "Inventory Map l". However, they are not reflected on the "Composite Map". Based on this staff does not find that the disturbance of the critical slopes would result in the loss of an identified aesthetic resource. Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the request by Current Development Fngineerina staff: The critical slope waiver request has been reviewed. The engineering analysis of the request follows: Description of critical slope area and proposed disturbance: Che non-exempt critical slope areas on this site are wooded.

Exemptions to critical slopes waivers for driveway's, roads and utilities without reasonable alternative locations: One-third of proposed critical slope disturbance is exempt (().1 acres), as the critical slopes shown are the result of a previously approved plan (Town & County Drive Phase 11 and Olympia Drive, Car Nlax, Luxor, Pavilions Phase 1). The remaining two-thirds of proposed critical slope disturbance are not exempt (0.2 acres). Based on the above review, Frigineering recommends approval to the critical slope waiver. Review of the request by Current Development Planning staff: Summary of review of modification of Section 4.2: Section 4.2.5 establishes the review process and criteria for granting a waiver of Section 4.2.3. The preceding connnents by staff address the previsions of Section 4.2.5(a). Staff has included the provisions of Section 4.2.5(b) here, along with staffconunent on the various provisions.

The grading and landscaping proposed enhance the environmental issues of reducing the movement of soil and rock through proper slop[c reduction; reducing siltation and sediment transfer from this site to adjoining properties by providing a root mass by applying appropriate landscaping technique: and, with landscaping enhancing the buffering of commercial and residential uses. Thus, staff is able to recommend approval to the Commission of a waiver of Section 4.2.3. If the Commission concludes that the findings in the previous section have been met and therefore approves the requested waiver, staff recommends the following conditions: 1. Disturbance of additional critical slopes would allow additional approval.

STAFF CONENIEN"r: Based upon the proposed grading and construction plans, granting a modification to the requirement of no construction would prevent erosion and sedimentation to adjoining property by providing a retaining„ wall and plantings between the commercial and residential properties. In addition, the planting of conifers, tlowcrinl,> and deciduous trees, as shown on the landscaping plan, further separates the uses and provides a pleasant view from the lower, adjacent, residential property to the higher, in elevation, commercial property. Allowina disturbance in the buffer zone allows for the grading and construction of retaining walls and plantings enhances the aesthetics and separation of the two uses.

The Preliminary Site Development Plan for Whitehouse Commercial shows a stepped retaining wall that intrudes approximately 6 feet into the buffer zone. The maximum height of each wall is 10 ft and the walls are stepped to provide a 5 -ft landscape strip to break the appearance of the wall face. A railing at the top of the wall and additional landscaping within the buffer zone will be provided to mitigate the impacts of the disturbance. As additional justification for the disturbance, we provide the following: 1. The buffer zone in question has been disturbed by clearing and grading in accordance with the approved development plan for the Pavilions townhomes. 2. A pedestrian connection is proposed as part of the disturbance. 3. As mitigation is not a requirement of residential development adjacent to a commercial district, the proposed disturbance, and resulting requirement for mitigation, would effectively improve the health, safety, and welfare of the existing condition and provide a visual screen between the two developments. The reasons given above demonstrate that the proposed grading, site work, and plantings would result in an improved site design.

The Preliminary Site Development Plan for Whitehouse Commercial shows there are approximately 37,650 square feet of critical slopes on the 4.81 acre site. These critical slopes would require grading as part of this project. Of the 37,650 SF of critical slopes: 11,795 SF were created as a result of grading for Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive, 1,393 SF were created as a result of grading for the Pavilions townhome development, and 16,630 SF were created as a result of grading for the Carmax Site Development Plan, and 7,832 SF of the critical slopes appear to be part of the original site topography. 1. The proposed grading is minor and measures will be taken to ensure rapid or large-scale movement of soil and rock does not occur. 2. A Sediment Basin exists to prevent excessive stormwater run-off from occurring. 3. The sediment Basin provides erosion protection for all natural and man-made bodies of water. 4. The proposed grading would assist in stabilizing the grading that created the critical slopes along Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive. Surface runoff would be removed as part of the proposed grading. 5. The proposed grading would further stabilize erosion and stormwater runoff from the Carmax and Pavilions sites by relieving critical slopes and capturing runoff in an underground storm system. 6. Buildings and retaining walls have been provided to create steps up the site, further reducing surface runoff velocities on the site. 7. There are no septic systems on this property. 8. The property does not lie in the 100 -year flood plain. The reasons given above demonstrate that the grading of critical slopes on this project will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and/or welfare of the public.

On March 25, 2008 the Commission accepted the applicant's request for deferral in order to provide additional information. The original March staff report is attached. The following addresses the two main areas of concern discussed at the March meeting: 1) disturbance of the buffer zone and 2) critical slope waiver. A revised site plan has been submitted to address the Commission's concerns. Revisions to the plan include: moving the wall out of the buffer, changing the screening fence to evergreen trees and reductions to building size and parking (Attachment A and site plan sheet C7). New diagrams are attached to clarify the conditions of the existing buffer, the encroachment of easements from prior approved plans onto this site and the limit of this applicant's request (Attachments D, E and G). 1) Disturbance of the buffer zone between residential and commercial: The Whitehouse site plan has been revised so that the walls are not in the buffer. The plan addresses the required screening in the buffer with a double row of screening trees, as allowed in Section 32.7.9.8. A sidewalk connection between the residential area and the Whitehouse commercial development, as requested by the County, crosses the buffer. Staff recommends approval of the waver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone (Section 21.7.3 analysis follows). 2) Critical Slope waiver: The Whitehouse site plan will disturb existing critical slopes and therefore requires a Critical Slope Waiver, as discussed in the March staff report. A slope waiver analysis and additional graphics are included in this letter to clarify the limits of disturbance by the Whitehouse site plan. A large portion of the site is already disturbed, or allowed to be disturbed, as allowed by easements given to other approved projects. Staff recommends approval of the critical slopes waiver. (Section 4.2.5 analysis follows) Recommended actions: A) Approve the waiver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone B) Approve the critical slope waiver request 1. WAIVER TO ALLOW LAND DISTURBANCE IN A BUFFER BETWEEN ZONING DISTRICTS Section 21.7.3 provides the method of requesting a waiver: "Bmf fi r zone adjacent to residential and rural areas districts: No construction activity including grading or clearing of vegetation shall occur closer than twenty (20) ,feet to anv residential or rural areas district. Screening shall he provided as required in section 32.79. Except, the commission may waive this requirement in a particular case where it has been demonstrated that grading or clearing is necessary or would result in an improved site design, provided that.- a. hat:a. Mininuini screening requirements are met; and b. Existing landscaping in excess of inininnan requirements is substantially restored. " Disturbance in a Buffer Zone Waiver: The applicant has revised the plan to minimize the disturbance in the buffer zone. The current plan shows a wall outside of the buffer. This wall will have a railing at the top which supplements screening. The wall currently proposed has a maximum height of 10 feet. The improvements proposed within the buffer are the screening trees required by code and a pedestrian path. A large portion of the buffer strip along the Whitehouse property line will be disturbed and vegetation removed by drainage and grading easements granted to other approved developments, such that approximately 22 % of the length will contain existing vegetation (Attachment E). The drainage easement runs up the property line starting at Rolkin Road for about 100 feet then overlaps the grading easement which runs for approximately another 130 feet, leaving only the last 65 feet undisturbed. Section 32.7.9.8 allows screening to be met by maintaining existing vegetation, the addition of a planting strip, a fence or a combination thereof. New evergreen trees are proposed to supplement the existing vegetation that remains outside of easements. The plan shows a double row of evergreen trees to provide screening in the areas where the existing vegetation is removed by other projects. The pedestrian path was the result of staff requesting an inter -parcel connection . The applicant worked with staff to find the most functional location for a path. Staff was aware that the proposed path location crosses the buffer, but supports the goal of walkablity. The proposed path connects near the road at the Pavillions and part of the path will be within the grading easement already approved for that development. (Pavilions Preliminary Site Plan approved by the Commission on March 14, 2006). The portion of the path that falls in the undisturbed area of the buffer can be located to minimize disturbance of existing vegetation. The grading and clearing required for the pedestrian connection will result in an improved design that allows inter -parcel pedestrian connectivity. The plan shows the minimum screening requirements and the existing vegetation left undisturbed by other projects will be maintained and supplemented by adding evergreen screening trees. STAFF COMMENT: Staff recommends approval of the waiver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone with one condition; Condition (1) staff approve the final alignment of the pedestrian path within the buffer zone to minimize impact on existing vegetation. 2. CRITICAL SLOPES MODIFICATION The request for a modification has been reviewed for both the Engineering and Planning aspects of the critical slopes regulations. Section 4.2.3.2 of the Zoning Ordinance restricts earth - disturbing activity on critical slopes, while Section 4.2.5(b) allows the Planning Commission to waive this restriction. The applicant has submitted a request and justification for the waiver (Attachment C) and staff has analyzed this request to address the provisions of the ordinance. Critical slopes cover approximately 0.9 acres, or approximately 15 percent of the 6.4 acre site. Roughly 75% of the critical slopes on site are exempted from needing a critical slopes waiver (0.7 acres). These critical slopes are exempted because they have already been approved for disturbance by adjacent projects under prior approved critical slopes waivers, or they were created by an approved site plan (Attachment D).This request is for approval of a waiver to allow disturbance of the remainder of the critical slopes on site, totaling 02 acres. The critical slopes in the area of this request appear to be natural. Staff has reviewed this waiver request with consideration for the criteria that are set forth in Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance, entitled "Critical Slopes." A request to allow disturbance of critical slopes must also be reviewed in accord with the requirements of Section 4.2.5. This section requires a two part analysis. Section 4.2.5(a) is a review of the technical performance standards. If these technical standards are not met the disturbance of critical slopes cannot be approved by the Planning Commission. If these technical standards are met, the Planning Commission may then consider the disturbance of critical slopes. The criteria for the Planning Commission's review of the disturbance of critical slopes are found in Section 4.2.5(b). Staff presents the analysis of the request to disturb critical slopes in two parts. Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the technical performance standards: Description of critical slope area and proposed disturbance: The non-exempt critical slope areas within TMP's 78-9 and 78-11 appear to contain natural slopes. The critical slope disturbances are in the form of commercial construction which include parking spaces, landscaped curb islands, and buildings. Areas Acres Total site area 6.4 acres approx. Total critical slopes on site 0.9 acres approx. 15 % of development Proposed critical slope disturbance, Exempt 0.7 acres approx. 75 % of critical slopes Proposed critical slope disturbance, Non-exempt 0.2 acres approx. 25 % of critical slopes, 100% of non-exempt critical slopes on site Exemptions to critical slopes waivers for driveways, roads and utilities without reasonable alternative locations: As previously mentioned, and shown in the chart above, 75% of proposed critical slope disturbance is exempt (0.7 acres) as the critical slopes shown are the result of a previously approved plan (Town & County Drive Phase II and Olympia Drive, Car Max, Luxor, Pavilions Phase I). All of the aforementioned projects received critical slope waivers for any critical slope disturbance on this site. The remaining 25% of proposed critical slope disturbance is not exempt (0.2 acres). Below, each of the concerns of Zoning Ordinance section 18-4.2 is addressed: 1. "rapid and/or large scale movement ofsoil and rock ": The areas of existing critical slopes on this site are relatively small and scattered. There is a mixture of cut and till over the critical slopes. Large scale movement of soil and rock is not anticipated to occur as a result of this construction. 2. "excessive stortnivater run-off": The site drains to Luxor Stormwater Management Pond #1, which has been designed to handle the runoff from the proposed site for both Stormwater Quality and Detention. 3. "siltation of natural and rnan-made bodies of 'vti,ater ": Inspection and bonding by the County will address siltation control during construction. Proper stabilization and maintenance will enhance long term stability. 4. "loss of aesthetic resource ": Although the disturbance will be visible from adjacent parcels and future public roadways. The Open Space Plan is used to evaluate the loss of aesthetic resource. This site has no resources identified in the Open Space Plan. Staff find that disturbance of the critical slopes on this site are not a loss of aesthetic resource. 5. "septic effluent ": No septic systems or drainfields are proposed in this project. This site is accessible to the public sanitary sewer system. This site does not drain into a waterway that is a public drinking water supply for Albemarle County. No portion of this site plan is located inside the 100 -year flood plain area according to FEMA Maps, dated 04 February 2005. Based on the above review, the applicant has satisfactorily addressed the technical criteria for the disturbance of critical slopes. Section 4.2.5(b) Recommendations on the findings that must be made by the Planninp, Commission in order to allow disturbance of critical slopes. The commission nrav nrod{& or waive any requirement of section 4.2 in a particular case upon .finding that: Strict application of the requirements of section 4.2 mould not.forn'ard the purposes of this chapter or otherx,ise serve the public health, safety or welfare, or that alternatives proposed by the developer vi•ould satisfy the purposes gfsection 4.2 to at least an equivalent degree; or (Added 11-15-89) The property is an existing undeveloped parcel neighbored by proposed roads and residential areas to the north and east and by existing commercial areas to the south and west. The site plan indicates both cut and fill in the areas of existing critical slopes. The applicant has proposed protective and restorative measures intended to minimize erosion and siltation both during and post construction. These measures will satisfy the purpose of Section 4.2 to at least an equivalent degree. Granting the waiver forwards the purposes of this chapter by providing the type of commercial development anticipated in the development area while addressing erosion control concerns. Approval of this request would accommodate the expansion of an infill property within the development area of the Comprehensive Plan. Staff finds strict application of the requirements of Section 4.2 would not forward the purposes of this chapter in allowing commercial infill development 2. Dice to its unusual size, topography, shape of the property, location of the property or other unttstral conditions, excluding the proprietary interest of the developer, the rcquiremctats of section 4.2 would effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or would result in significant degradation of the site or adjacent properties. Such modification or waiver shall not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, to the orderly development of the area, or to adjacent properties, or be contrat.v to sound engineering practices; or (Added 11-I5-89) Denial of this modification would not prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or result in significant degradation of the site or adjacent properties. However, since the existing critical slopes occur near the middle of the site, denial would significantly alter and reduce the type of development that could occur on this site. The modification of this section will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, to the orderly development of the area or to adjacent properties, or be contrary to sound engineering practices. 3. Granting such modification or• waiver would serve a public purpose ofgrcuter import than would be served by strict application of section 4.2. (Added 11-15-89) This property is in the development areas and represents a commercial development in accord with the Comprehensive plan designation. As such, grading the site as one unit would more effectively provide for commercial development. RECOMMENDATION: Staff review has resulted in only favorable findings: Favorable factors: 1. The measures proposed by the applicant will satisfy the purpose of Section 4.2, at least to an equivalent degree, meeting the requirement for 4.2.5 (b) (1). 2. The overall grading of the site is consistent with the type of commercial development intended for this designated commercial area, meeting the requirement for 4.2.5 (b) (3). Unfavorable factors: None found. The Planning Commission may grant the modification if it finds that the request has met at least one of the three requirements in Section 4.2.5 (b). Staff has found that the request for modification meets two of the three requirements, and therefore recommends approval. Response to Commission Questions at the PC Meeting 3/25/08 With responses in italics ACTION: Deferral for staff to get more information: a) What other approvals allow grading in the Whitehouse buffer? Several approved projects have easements on the Whitehouse property (Attachment E) In regard to the required bziffcr between residential and commercial sites at the Pavilions/Whitehouse property line, offsite drainage and grading easements were given to the Pavilions. This grading onto the Whitehouse site is shown ort the Pavillions preliminary site plan approved by the Commission March 14, 2006. b) What are the existing conditions in the buffer? As oj'May 5, 2008 when the property line between Pavilions and Whitehouse was staked in the field, there was only a small amount ofgrading on the Whitehouse site in the grading easement as shown on the preliminary site plan approved by the Commission on March 14, 2006. The drainage easement has not been disturbed. The majority of the buffer- strip currently consists of hardwood trees and undergrowth. (Attachment G) However, an offsite drainage easement and a grading easement were given to Pavillions and their- construction is not complete. As a result of the grading easement, for Rolkin Road, the grading easement, for- Pavilions and the drainage easement, vegetation will only remain on about 22 percent of the length of the property line (Attachment E). The neer evergreens proposed by the Whitehouse site plan will be planted to supplement the existing trees. c) What will be established as screening The plan proposes a double row of evergreen trees inhere there is no existing vegetation. As stated above, about 22 per cent of'the length of the buffer will contain the original undisturbed trees. Supplemental evergreens are proposed to be added in the areas of' existing vegetation to remain. d) Will planting constitute disturbance? Staffproposed that the required double row of planting be allowed without a buffer- waiver since it only occurs within the areas disturbed by other projects and thereby by need screening added. The supplemental evergreen trees that will be installed in the remaining areas of existing vegetation will be placed to minimise disturbance. The pedestrian connection requested by staffat Pre -Application conference for inter parcel connectivity will be located between any existing trees and brill be installed tivith minimal disturbance. Staff proposes that a waiver be granted to allow this path. Attachments: A. Vicinity Map B. Applicant's letter regarding plan changes and withdrawal of the buffer waiver, dated April 10, 2008 C.

The applicant, in submitting the attached revised preliminary plan, does hereby withdraw his request for a waiver of Section 21.7.3. The applicant still seeks Planning Commission approval for a waiver of Section 4.2.5 (granting disturbance of critical slopes); and we hereby request that the application be rescheduled before the Planning Commission at the earliest possible date. Revisions to the Preliminary Site Development Plan include the following: 1. relocation of the parking lot travelway adjacent to the Pavilions townhouse development, 2. adjustments to the retaining walls and vegetative screening adjacent to the Pavilions townhouse development, 3. elimination of 7 (seven) parking spaces and 1,620 SF of gross floor area, 4. adjusting the retaining wall and grading to accommodate runoff behind the sidewalk along Rolkin Road, 5. and adjusting the grading and providing a drop inlet to accommodate runoff between the southernmost parking area and the Carmax site.

The Preliminary Site Development Plan for Whitehouse Commercial shows there are approximately 37,650 square feet ofcritical slopes onthe 4.81acre site. These critical slopes would require grading ospart ofthis project. Of the 37.05OSFofcritical slopes: 11.7Q5SFwere created maaresult of grading for Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive, 1,393 SF were created as a result of grading for the Pavilions townhome development, and 16,630 SIF were created as a result of grading for the Carmax Site Development Plan, and 7,832 SF of the critical slopes appear to be part of the original site topography. 1, The proposed grading is minor and measures will be taken to ensure rapid or large-scale movement of soil and rock does not occur. 2. ASediment Basin exists toprevent excessive atormmmVerrun-off from occurring. 3 The sediment Basin provides erosion protection for all natural and man-made bodies of water. 4. The proposed grading would assist in stabilizing the grading that created the critical slopes along Ro|kin Road and Olympia Drive. Surface runoff would beremoved aspart o/the proposed grading. 5 The proposed grading would further stabilize erosion and stormwater runoff from the Carmax and Pavilions sites by relieving critical slopes and capturing runoff in an underground storm system. 0 Buildings and retaining walls have been provided to create steps up the site, further reducing surface runoff velocities onthe site. 7. There are noseptic systems un this property. 8. The property does not lie iothe 100-yoarflood plain. The reasons given above demonstrate that the grading ofcritical slopes onthis project will not be detrimental to the hom\\h, safety, and/or welfare of the public. Please call me o/ Kelly Strickland from our office ifyou have any questions orconcerns.

On March 25, 2008 the Commission accepted the applicant's request for deferral in order to provide additional information. The original March staff report is attached. The following addresses the two main areas of concern discussed at the March meeting: 1) disturbance of the buffer zone and 2) critical slope waiver. A revised site plan has been submitted to address the Conunission's concerns. Revisions to the plan include: moving the wall out of the buffer, changing the screening fence to evergreen trees and reductions to building size and parking (Attachment A and site plan sheet C7). New diagrams are attached to clarify the conditions of the existing buffer, the encroachment of easements from prior approved plans onto this site and the limit of this applicant's request (Attachments D, E and G). 1) Disturbance of the buffer zone between residential and commercial: The Whitehouse site plan has been revised so that the walls are not in the buffer. The plan addresses the required screening in the buffer with a double row of screening trees, as allowed in Section 32.7.9.8. A sidewalk connection between the residential area and the Whitehouse commercial development, as requested by the County, crosses the buffer. Staff recornrnends approval of the waver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone (Section 21.7.3 analysis follows). 2) Critical Slope waiver: The Whitehouse site plan will disturb existing critical slopes and therefore requires a Critical Slope Waiver, as discussed in the March staff report. A slope waiver analysis and additional graphics are included in this letter to clarify the limits of disturbance by the Whitehouse site plan. A large portion of the site is already disturbed, or allowed to be disturbed, as allowed by easements given to other approved projects. Staff recommends approval of the critical slopes waiver. (Section 4.2.5 analysis follows) Recommended actions: A) Approve the waiver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone B) Approve the critical slope waiver request 1. WAIVER TO ALLOW LAND DISTURBANCE IN A BUFFER BETWEEN ZONING DISTRICTS Section 21.7.3 provides the method of requesting a waiver: "Buffer zone adjacent to residential and rural ureas districts: No construction activity including grading or clearing of vegetation shall occur closer than twenty (20) feet to any residential or rural areas district. Screening shall he provided as required in section 32.7.9. Except, the commission may waive this requirement in a particular case where it has been demonstrated that grading or clearing is necessary or would result in an improved site design, provided that: a. Minimum .screening requirements are met; and b. Existing landscaping in excess of mininwin requirements is substantially restored. " Disturbance in a Buffer Zone Waiver: The applicant has revised the plan to minimize the disturbance in the buffer zone. The current plan shows a wall outside of the buffer. This wall will have a railing at the top which supplements screening. The wall currently proposed has a maximum height of 10 feet. The improvements proposed within the buffer are the screening trees required by code and a pedestrian path. A large portion of the buffer strip along the Whitehouse property line will be disturbed and vegetation removed by drainage and grading easements granted to other approved developments, such that approximately 22 % of the length will contain existing vegetation (Attachment E). The drainage easement runs up the property line starting at Rolkin Road for about 100 feet then overlaps the grading easement which runs for approximately another 130 feet, leaving only the last 65 feet undisturbed. Section 32.7.9.8 allows screening to be met by maintaining existing vegetation, the addition of a planting strip, a fence or a combination thereof. New evergreen trees are proposed to supplement the existing vegetation that remains outside of easements. The plan shows a double row of evergreen trees to provide screening in the areas where the existing vegetation is removed by other projects. The pedestrian path was the result of staff requesting an inter -parcel connection . The applicant worked with staff to find the most functional location for a path. Staff was aware that the proposed path location crosses the buffer, but supports the goal of walkablity. The proposed path connects near the road at the Pavillions and part of the path will be within the grading easement already approved for that development. (Pavilions Preliminary Site Plan approved by the Commission on March 14, 2006). The portion of the path that falls in the undisturbed area of the buffer can be located to minimize disturbance of existing vegetation. The grading and clearing required for the pedestrian connection will result in an improved design that allows inter -parcel pedestrian connectivity. The plan shows the minimum screening requirements and the existing vegetation left undisturbed by other projects will be maintained and supplemented by adding evergreen screening trees. STAFF COMMENT: Staff recommends approval of the waiver to allow disturbance in the buffer zone with one condition; Condition (1) staff approve the final alignment of the pedestrian path within the buffer zone to minimize impact on existing vegetation. 3 2. CRITICAL SLOPES MODIFICATION The request for a modification has been reviewed for both the Engineering and Planning aspects of the critical slopes regulations. Section 4.2.3.2 of the Zoning Ordinance restricts earth - disturbing activity on critical slopes, while Section 4.2.5(b) allows the Planning Commission to waive this restriction. The applicant has submitted a request and justification for the waiver (Attachment C) and staff has analyzed this request to address the provisions of the ordinance. Critical slopes cover approximately 0.9 acres, or approximately 15 percent of the 6.4 acre site. Roughly 75% of the critical slopes on site are exempted from needing a critical slopes waiver (0.7 acres). These critical slopes are exempted because they have already been approved for disturbance by adjacent projects under prior approved critical slopes waivers, or they were created by an approved site plan (Attachment D).This request is for approval of a waiver to allow disturbance of the remainder of the critical slopes on site, totaling 0.2 acres. The critical slopes in the area of this request appear to be natural. Staff has reviewed this waiver request with consideration for the criteria that are set forth in Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance, entitled "Critical Slopes." A request to allow disturbance of critical slopes must also be reviewed in accord with the requirements of Section 4.2.5. This section requires a two part analysis. Section 4.2.5(a) is a review of the technical performance standards. If these technical standards are not met the disturbance of critical slopes cannot be approved by the Planning Commission. If these technical standards are met, the Planning Commission may then consider the disturbance of critical slopes. The criteria for the Planning Commission's review of the disturbance of critical slopes are found in Section 4.2.5(b). Staff presents the analysis of the request to disturb critical slopes in two parts. Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the technical performance standards: Description of critical slope area and proposed disturbance: The non-exempt critical slope areas within TMP's 78-9 and 78-11 appear to contain natural slopes. The critical slope disturbances are in the form of commercial construction which include parking spaces, landscaped curb islands, and buildings. Areas Acres Total site area 6.4 acres approx. Total critical slopes on site 0.9 acres approx. 15 % of development Proposed critical slope disturbance, Exempt 0.7 acres approx. 75 % of critical slopes Proposed critical slope disturbance, Non-exempt 0.2 acres approx. 25 % of critical slopes, 100% of non-exempt critical slopes on site Exemptions to critical slopes waivers for driveways, roads and utilities without reasonable alternative locations: As previously mentioned, and shown in the chart above, 75% of proposed critical slope disturbance is exempt (0.7 acres) as the critical slopes shown are the result of a previously approved plan (Town & County Drive Phase II and Olympia Drive, Car Max, Luxor, Pavilions Phase I). All of the aforementioned projects received critical slope waivers for any critical slope disturbance on this site. The remaining 25% of proposed critical slope disturbance is not exempt (0.2 acres). Below, each of the concerns of Zoning Ordinance section 18-4.2 is addressed: 1. "rapid and/or large scale movement o f soil and rock".- The areas of existing critical slopes on this site are relatively small and scattered. There is a mixture of cut and fill over the critical slopes. Large scale movement of soil and rock is not anticipated to occur as a result of this construction. 2. "excessive stormwater run-off": The site drains to Luxor Stormwater Management Pond #1, which has been designed to handle the runoff from the proposed site for both Stormwater Quality and Detention. 3. "siltation of natural and man-made bodies of water- ": Inspection and bonding by the County will address siltation control during construction. Proper stabilization and maintenance will enhance long term stability. 4. "loss of aesthetic resource ": Although the disturbance will be visible from adjacent parcels and future public roadways. The Open Space Plan is used to evaluate the loss of aesthetic resource. This site has no resources identified in the Open Space Plan. Staff find that disturbance of the critical slopes on this site are not a loss of aesthetic resource. 5. "septic effluent ": No septic systems or drainfields are proposed in this project. This site is accessible to the public sanitary sewer system. This site does not drain into a waterway that is a public drinking water supply for Albemarle County. No portion of this site plan is located inside the l 00 -year flood plain area according to FEMA Maps, dated 04 February 2005. Based on the above review, the applicant has satisfactorily addressed the technical criteria for the disturbance of critical slopes. Section 4.2.5(b) Recommendations on the findings that must be made by the Planning Commission in order to allow disturbance of critical slopes. The commission may rnodifi, or waive anv requirement of section 4.2 in a particular case upon finding that: 1. Strict application of the requirements of section 4.2 would not forward the purposes of' this chapter or otherwise serve the public health, safety or welfare, or that alternatives proposed by the developer would satisfy the purposes o -section 4.2 to at least an equivalent degree: or (.4ddcd 11-15-R9) The property is an existing undeveloped parcel neighbored by proposed roads and residential areas to the north and east and by existing commercial areas to the south and west. The site plan indicates both cut and fill in the areas of existing critical slopes. The applicant has proposed protective and restorative measures intended to minimize erosion and siltation both during and post construction. These measures will satisfy the purpose of Section 4.2 to at least an equivalent degree. Granting the waiver forwards the purposes of this chapter by providing the type of commercial development anticipated in the development area while addressing erosion control concerns. Approval of this request would accommodate the expansion of an infill property within the development area of the Comprehensive Plan. Staff finds strict application of the requirements of Section 4.2 would not forward the purposes of this chapter in allowing commercial infill development 2. Due to its unusual size, topography, shape of the property, location of the property, or other unusual conditions, excluding the proprietary interest of the developer, the requirements of section 4.2 would effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or mould result in significant degradation of the site or adjacent properties. Such modification or waiver shall not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, to the orderly development of the area, or to adjacent properties, or be contrary to sound engineeringpractices; or (Added 11-15-89) Denial of this modification would not prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or result in significant degradation of the site or adjacent properties. However, since the existing critical slopes occur near the middle of the site, denial would significantly alter and reduce the type of development that could occur on this site. The modification of this section will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, to the orderly development of the area or to adjacent properties, or be contrary to sound engineering practices. 3. Granting such rnodi fication or waiver would serve a public purpose of greater import than would be served by strict application of section 4?. (Added 11-15-89) This property is in the development areas and represents a commercial development in accord with the Comprehensive plan designation. As such, grading the site as one unit would more effectively provide for commercial development. RECOMMENDATION: Staff review has resulted in only favorable findings: Favorable factors: 1. The measures proposed by the applicant will satisfy the purpose of Section 42, at least to an equivalent degree, meeting the requirement for 4.2.5 (b) (1). 2. The overall grading of the site is consistent with the type of commercial development intended for this designated commercial area, meeting the requirement for 4.2.5 (b) (3). Unfavorable factors: None found. The Planning Commission may grant the modification if it finds that the request has met at least one of the three requirements in Section 4.2.5 (b). Staff has found that the request for modification meets two of the three requirements, and therefore recommends approval. Response to Commission Questions at the PC Meetinp, 3/25/08 With responses in italics ACTION: Deferral for staff to get more information: a) What other approvals allow grading in the Whitehouse buffer? Several approved projects have easements on the Whitehouse property (Attachment E) In regard to the required buffer between residential and commercial sites at the Pavilions/Whitehouse pr open ry line, off site drainage and grading easements were given to the Pavilions. This grading onto the Whitehouse site is shown on the Pavillions preliminary site plan approved by the Commission March 14, 2006. b) What are the existing conditions in the buffer? As of May 5, 2008 when the property line between Pavilions and Whitehouse was staked in the field, there was onlv a small amount of grading on the Whitehouse site in the grading easement as shown on the preliminary site plan approved by the Commission on March 14,2006. The drainage easement has not been disturbed. The majority of the buffer strip currently consists of hardwood trees and undergrowth. (Attachment G) However, an of drainage easement and a grading easement were given to Pavillions and their construction is not complete. As a result of the grading easement for Rolkin Road, the grading easement_for Pavilions and the drainage easement, vegetation will only remain on about 22 per -cent of the length of the property line (Attachment E). The new evergreens proposed by the Whitehouse site plan will be planted to supplement the existing trees. c) What will be established as screening The plan proposes a double row of evergreen trees where there is no existing vegetation. As stated above, about 22 per cent of the length of the buffer will contain the original undisturbed trees. Supplemental evergreens are proposed to be added in the areas of' existing vegetation to remain. d) Will planting constitute disturbance? Staff proposed that the required double row of planting be allowed without a buffer waiver - since it only occurs within the areas disturbed by other projects and thereby by need screening added. The supplemental evergreen trees that mill be installed in the remaining areas of existing vegetation will be placed to minimize disturbance. The pedestrian connection requested by staffat at Pre -Application conference,for inter parcel connectivity will be located between any existing trees and will be installed with minimal disturbance. StaI.ff'proposes that a waiver be granted to allow this path. Attachments: A. Vicinity Map B. Applicant's letter regarding plan changes and withdrawal of the buffer waiver, dated April 10, 2008 C.

The applicant, in submitting the attached revised preliminary plan, does hereby withdraw his request for a waiver of Section 21.7.3. The applicant still seeks Planning Commission approval for a waiver of Section 4.2.5 (granting disturbance of critical slopes); and we hereby request that the application be rescheduled before the Planning Commission at the earliest possible date. Revisions to the Preliminary Site Development Plan include the following: 1. relocation of the parking lot travelway adjacent to the Pavilions townhouse development, 2, adjustments to the retaining walls and vegetative screening adjacent to the Pavilions townhouse development, 3. elimination of 7 (seven) parking spaces and 1,620 SF of gross floor area, 4. adjusting the retaining wall and grading to accommodate runoff behind the sidewalk along Rolkin Road, 5. and adjusting the grading and providing a drop inlet to accommodate runoff between the southernmost parking area and the Carmax site. Please note that evergreen screening, the 6 FT high Board on Board fence, and the 5 FT compacted stone pedestrian path have been left in the 20 FT undisturbed buffer.

The Preliminary Site Development Plan for Whitehouse Commercial shows there are approximately 37,650 square feet of critical slopes on the 4.81 acre site. These critical slopes would require grading as part of this project. Of the 37,650 SF of critical slopes: 11,795 SF were created as a result of grading for Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive, 1,393 SF were created as a result of grading for the Pavilions townhome development, and 16,630 SF were created as a result of grading for the Carmax Site Development Plan, and 7,832 SF of the critical slopes appear to be part of the original site topography. 1. The proposed grading is minor and measures will be taken to ensure rapid or large-scale movement of soil and rock does not occur. 2. A Sediment Basin exists to prevent excessive stormwater run-off from occurring. 3. The sediment Basin provides erosion protection for all natural and man-made bodies of water. 4. The proposed grading would assist in stabilizing the grading that created the critical slopes along Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive. Surface runoff would be removed as part of the proposed grading. 5. The proposed grading would further stabilize erosion and stormwater runoff from the Carmax and Pavilions sites by relieving critical slopes and capturing runoff in an underground storm system. 6. Buildings and retaining walls have been provided to create steps up the site, further reducing surface runoff velocities on the site. 7. There are no septic systems on this property. 8. The property does not lie in the 100 -year flood plain. The reasons given above demonstrate that the grading of critical slopes on this project will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and/or welfare of the public. Please call me or Kelly Strickland from our office if you have any questions or concerns.

APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL: Request for preliminary site plan approval for construction of commercial office space in three two-story office buildings totaling 65,120 square feet on 4.81 acres zoned HC - Highway Commercial and EC, Entrance Corridor Overlay District. The property, described as Tax Map 78 Parcel 11 and part of Parcel 9 are located in the Rivanna Magisterial District on the proposed Olympia Drive in the Pantops Development Area between the Pavilions Townhomes development (currently under construction), the CarMax and Free Bridge Auto sites. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Regional Service in Urban Area 3. REASON FOR PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW: The applicant requests waivers to allow disturbance of critical slopes and disturbance within the buffer adjacent to residentially zoned property. PLANNING AND ZONING HISTORY: This area has been subject to multiple subdivision plats resulting in the current lot configuration. Approval of adjacent projects has extended Olympia Drive (a new public street) to this site. DISCUSSION: The Planning Commission will need to act on two waiver requests. This staff report is organized to address each issue separately. The Commission must act on both of the items. The items to be addressed are: Zoning Ordinance 1. Waiver of Section 42.5 —disturbance of critical slopes 2. Waiver of Section 21.7.3 — disturbance of land within a buffer zone CRITICAL SLOPES WAIVER A modification to allow critical slopes disturbance is necessary before the preliminary site plan can be approved. The request reviewed for both the Engineering and Planning aspects of the critical slopes regulations. Section 4.2.3.2 of the Zoning Ordinance restricts earth -disturbing activity on critical slopes, while Section 4.2.5(b) allows the Planning Commission to waive this restriction. The applicant has submitted a request and justification for the waiver (Attachment C), and staff has analyzed this request to address the provisions of the ordinance. Critical slopes cover approximately 0.9 acres, or 19 percent, of the 4.8 acres included in this request. This request is to disturb 0.3 acres, or 33 percent, of these critical slopes. The critical slopes in the area of this request do not appear to be man-made. The determination of which critical slopes are man-made could not be determined. Staff has reviewed this waiver request with consideration for the concerns that are set forth in Section 4.2 of the Zoning Ordinance, entitled "Critical Slopes." These concerns have been addressed directly through the analysis provided herein, which is presented in two parts, based on the Section of the Ordinance each pertains to. Applicant's Request for Critical Slopes Waiver: The Applicant states: "The Preliminary Site Development Plan.for 0iitehouse Commercial shows there are approximately 37,650 square feet of critical slopes on the 4.81 acre site. These critical slopes would require grading as part of this project. Of the 37,650 SF of critical slopes: 11,795 SF were created as a result of grading for Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive, 1,393 SF were created as a result of grading for the Pavilions totivnhonie development, and 16,630 SF were created as a result of grading for the Carmax Site Development Plan, and 7,832 SF of the critical slopes appear to be part of the original site topography. 1. The proposed grading is minor and measures iyill he taken to ensure rapid or large-scale inoventent of•soil and rock does not occur. ?. .4 Sediment Basin exists to prevent excessive stonrnvater run-off fi-ont occurring. 3. The sediment Basin provides erosion protection for all natural and roan -made bodies of grater. 4. The proposed grading irould assist in stabilising the grading that created the critical slopes along Rolkin Road and Olt ntpia Drive. Surface runoff ivould he removed as part of the proposed grading. 5. The proposed grading uvould.further stabili.:e erosion and stormuvater runoff ftom the Carmax and Pavilions sites by relieving critical .slopes and capturing runoff in un underground stortn s}stem. 6. Buildings and retaining tircdls have been provided to create steps up the site, further reducing surface runoff velocities on the site. 7. There are no septic systems on this property. 8. The property does not lie in the 100 -year flood plain. The reasons given above demonstrate that the grading of critical slopes on this project will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and/or welfare of the public. " Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the request by Current Development Planning staff - The Open Space Plan is the primary tool used by staff to identify aesthetic resources. The maps in the Open Space Plan include inventory maps which show all resources. The composite map indicates those resources that are of the highest significance or are part of a system forming a significant resource, such as a stream valley or mountain range. The Open Space Plan shows "slopes > 25%" on this property on the "Inventory Map I". However, they are not reflected on the "Composite Map". Based on this staff does not find that the disturbance of the critical slopes would result in the loss of an identified aesthetic resource. Section 4.2.5(a) Review of the request by Current Development Engineering staff.• The critical slope waiver request has been reviewed. The engineering analysis of the request follows: Description of critical slope area and proposed disturbance: The non-exempt critical slope areas on this site are wooded. The applicant is proposing commercial office space, and the critical slope disturbance includes buildings, parking areas, grading, etc. Areas Total site 4.8 acres approximately Critical slopes 0.9 acres l 99"o of site Critical slopes disturbed 0.3 acres 33% of critical slopes Below, each of the concerns of Zoning Ordinance section 18-4.2 is discussed: Compliance with Zoning Ordinance 18-4.2: "movement of soil and rock" Proper slope construction, control of drainage, and vegetative stabilization will prevent any movement of soil. ``excessive stormwater runoff' The site drains to LiLyor Stormwater iVlanagement Pond #1, which has been designed to handle the runofffrom the proposed site.for both Storintivater Quality and Detention. V "siltation" Inspection and honcling by the Cot(nty will ensure siltation control daring construction. Proper stabilization and maintenance will ensure long term stability. "loss of aesthetic resource" The Clrsturbance will be visible from adjacent parcels and prtblic roadways. "septic effluent" This site is served by public sewer. Exemptions to critical slopes waivers for driveways, roads and utilities without reasonable alternative locations: One-third of proposed critical slope disturbance is exempt (0.1 acres), as the critical slopes shown are the result of a previously approved plan (Town & County Drive Phase II and Olympia Drive, Car Max, Luxor, Pavilions Phase 1). The remaining two-thirds of proposed critical slope disturbance are not exempt (0.2 acres). Based on the above review, Engineering recommends approval to the critical slope waiver. Review of the request by Current Development PlanninL, staff.• Summary of review of modification of Section 4.2: Section 4.2.5 establishes the review process and criteria for granting a waiver of Section 4.2.3. The preceding comments by staff address the provisions of Section 4.2.5(a). Staff has included the provisions of Section 4.2.5(b) here, along with staff comment on the various provisions. The conte fission may modify or waive any requirementof ,Section 4. 2 n7 U pat trcular Case uponfinding that "Strict application of the requirements of section 4.2 would not forward the purposes of this chapter or otherwise serve the public health, safety or- til'elfare, or that alternatives proposed by the developer would satisfy the proposes of section 4.2 to at least an equivalent degree; or (Added 11-15-89) " This parcel is relatively visible from adjoining developments. In addition, there are a large number of proposed critical slopes disturbances that are to be graded and landscaped to the benefit of the project and adjoining properties. Staff finds that a strict application of the requirements set forth in Section 4.2 would not forward the purposes of this chapter and otherwise serve the public health, safety or welfare. 2. "Due to its unusual size, topographv, shape of the property, location of the property or other umrsrtal conditions, excluding the proprietat y interest of the developer, the requirements of section 4.2 would effectively prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property or would result in .significant degradation of the site or adfacent properties. Such modification or il'aiver shall not he detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, to the orderly development of the area, or to adjacent properties, or" he Contrary to sound engineering practices; oi" (.I(lde(111-15-89) Denial of this waiver would not prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property. However, the adjacent residential property may suffer both from the lack of grading and lack of landscaping were the waiver to be denied. That is to say, approval of this modification will allows the impact to be better mitigated. Granting such modification or M'ail'er WOUN serve a public purpose of greater import than would he served by strict application ofsection 4.2. (,-Idcled 11-15-89) This property is in the Development Areas, and represents a commercial development in an area designated on the Comprehensive Plan for commercial development. Granting the modification would allow for the level of development recommended by the Comprehensive Plan. 14 RECOMMENDATION: Staff is able to find that the provisions of Section 4.2.5(b) have been met. The grading and landscaping proposed enhance the environmental issues of reducing the movement of soil and rock through proper slop[e reduction; reducing siltation and sediment transfer from this site to adjoining properties by providing a root mass by applying appropriate landscaping technique; and, with landscaping enhancing the buffering of commercial and residential uses. Thus, staff is able to recommend approval to the Commission of a waiver of Section 42.3. If the Commission concludes that the findings in the previous section have been met and therefore approves the requested waiver, staff recommends the following conditions: 1. Disturbance of additional critical slopes would allow additional approval. WAIVER TO ALLOW LAND DISTURBANCE IN A BUFFER BETWEEN ZONING DISTRICTS Section 21.7.3 provides the method of requesting a waiver: -B[[tfLx zone adjacent to residential and rt[ral areas districts: No construction activity including grading or clearing of vegetation shall occur closer than Nvnty (20) feet to any residential or 1-111-al areas district. Screeningc'reening shall be provided (is required in section 32.7.9. ECc'ept, the commission may waive this requirement in a particular case where it has been denionstrated that grading or clearing is necessary or would result in an improved site design, provided that.- a. hat:a. itlinirnutn screening requirements are inet; and b. Existing landscaping in excess of ininimtan requirements Is substantially restored. Applicant's Request for Disturbance in a Buffer Zone Waiver: The applicant states in the request for waiver: "The Prelintinaty Site Development Plan for tVhitehouse Conunercial shows a stepped retaining wall that intrudes approximately 6 feet into the buffer zone. The nuixitman height of each Tull is 10 ft and the walls are stepped to provide a 5 -ft landscape strip to break the appearance of the tia'all face. A railing at the top of the wall and additional landscaping within the ht[f fer zone will he provided to tnitigate the inipac't.S of the disturbance. As additionalJL[5'tlf[C'Ut1on f01 the disturbance, provide the follutiving: 1. The buf fer zone in question has been disturbed by clearing and grading in accordance with the approved development plan for the Pavilions townhoines. 2. A pedestrian connection is proposed as part of the disturbance. 3. As nntigation is not a rcgnireinent of residential developinent adjacent to a coininercial district, the proposed disturbance, and resulting regtarenient for initigation, would effectively iniprove the health, safety, and welfare of the existing condition and provide a visual screen between the hi•o developments. The reasons given above detnonstrate that the proposed grading, site work-, and plantings would result in all unproved site design. STAFF COMMENT: Based upon the proposed grading and construction plans, granting a modification to the requirement of no construction would prevent erosion and sedimentation to adjoining property by providing a retaining wall and plantings between the commercial and residential properties. In addition, the planting of conifers, flowering and deciduous trees, as shown on the landscaping plan, further separates the uses and provides a pleasant view from the lower, adjacent, residential property to the higher, in elevation, commercial property. Allowing disturbance in the buffer zone allows for the grading and construction of retaining walls and plantings enhances the aesthetics and separation of the two uses. RECOMMENDATION: Staff has recommended approval of the two waivers requested by the applicant. The plan has been reviewed by the Site Review Committee and may be approved administratively if the Commission approves the two modifications. RECOMMEDED ACTION: 1. Waiver of Section 4.2.5 — disturbance of critical slopes (recommendation, approval) 2.

The Preliminary Site Development Plan for Whitehouse Commercial shows a stepped retaining wall that intrudes approximately 6 feet into the buffer zone. The maximum height of each wall is 10 ft and the walls are stepped to provide a 5 -ft landscape strip to break the appearance of the wail face. A railing at the top of the wall and additional landscaping within the buffer zone will be provided to mitigate the impacts of the disturbance. As additional justification for the disturbance, we provide the following: The buffer zone in question has been disturbed by clearing and grading in accordance with the approved development plan for the Pavilions townhomes. A pedestrian connection is proposed as part of the disturbance. As mitigation is not a requirement of residential development adjacent to a commercial district, the proposed disturbance, and resulting requirement for mitigation, would effectively improve the health, safety, and welfare of the existing condition and provide a visual screen between the two developments. The reasons given above demonstrate that the proposed grading, site work, and plantings would result in an improved site design.

The Preliminary Site Development Plan for Whitehouse Commercial shows there are approximately 37,650 square feet of critical slopes on the 4.81 acre site. These critical slopes would require grading as part of this project. Of the 37,650 SF of critical slopes: 11,795 SF were created as a result of grading for Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive, 1,393 SF were created as a result of grading for the Pavilions townhome development, and 16,630 SF were created as a result of grading for the Carmax Site Development Plan, and 7,832 SF of the critical slopes appear to be part of the original site topography. 1. The proposed grading is minor and measures will be taken to ensure rapid or large-scale movement of soil and rock does not occur. 2. A Sediment Basin exists to prevent excessive stormwater run-off from occurring. 3. The sediment Basin provides erosion protection for all natural and man-made bodies of water. 4. The proposed grading would assist in stabilizing the grading that created the critical slopes along Rolkin Road and Olympia Drive. Surface runoff would be removed as part of the proposed grading. 5. The proposed grading would further stabilize erosion and stormwater runoff from the Carmax and Pavilions sites by relieving critical slopes and capturing runoff in an underground storm system. 6. Buildings and retaining walls have been provided to create steps up the site, further reducing surface runoff velocities on the site. 7. There are no septic systems on this property. 8. The property does not lie in the 100 -year flood plain. The reasons given above demonstrate that the grading of critical slopes on this project will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and/or welfare of the public.

The engineering analysis of the request follows: Description of critical slope area and proposed disturbance: The non-exempt critical slope areas areas on this site are wooded. The applicant is proposing commercial office space, and the critical slope disturbance includes buildings, parking areas, grading, etc. Areas Total site 4.8 acres approximately Critical slopes 0.9 acres 1911/.of site Critical slopes disturbed 0.3 acres 33%0 of critical slopes Below, each of the concerns of Zoning Ordinance section 18-4.2 is discussed: Compliance with Zoning Ordinance 18-4.2: ,'movement of soil and rock" Proper slope construction, control of drainage, and vegetative stabilization will prevent any movement of soil. "excessive stormwater runoff' The site drains to Luxor Stonnwater Management Pond #1, which has been designed to handle the runoff from the proposed site for both Stormwater Quality and Detention. "siltation" Inspection and bonding by the County will ensure siltation control during construction. Proper stabilization and maintenance will ensure long term stability. "loss of aesthetic resource" The disturbance will be visible from adjacent parcels and public roadways. "septic effluent" This site is served by public sewer. Exemptions to critical slopes waivers for driveways, roads and utilities without reasonable alternative locations: One-third of proposed critical slope disturbance is exempt (0.1 acres), as the critical slopes shown are the result of a previously approved plan (Town & County Drive Phase II and Olympia Drive, Car Max, Luxor, Pavilions Phase I). The remaining two-thirds of proposed critical slope disturbance are not exempt (0.2 acres). Based on the above review, Engineering recommends approval to the critical slope waiver.
