Drawer R Charlottesville, VA 22903 Daytime Phone: 434 - 923 -8900 Fax: 434-971-8020 Email: richard @neighborhoodprops.com What type of change is requested: Q variation to the plan variation to the Code or standard Provide a copy of the existing plan (may be a reduced copy) illustrating the area for which the change is requested. Provide a graphic representation of the requested change. This application is submitted in response to a request from the Director of Community of Development. This applicant is satisfied that no variation is necessary in order to ensure that his proposed preliminary site plan substantially conforms to the approved application plan. However, the applicant has agreed to submit this application in an effort to accommodate the concerns of the Director of Community Development. Describe the variation being sought (may attach separate sheets): 1. We are requesting to change the general location, number, design, layout and orientation of buildings and parking areas in the Northwest Residential Area such that the residential units are oriented parallel to the road currently shown as Northwest Passage. The number of residential units in each building is decreased and the number of buildings is increased. The travelways /parking bays are reoriented to respond to the revised building unit layout. 2. We are requesting to have buildings and parking access between the road currently shown as Northwest Passage) and SWM Facility #10. 3. We are requesting to use ZMA road section NWPI in place of NWP3 and to use NWPI for a greater distance along the road than NWP3 was shown in the ZMA Key Plan. 0 What is the reason for each of the requested variations: 1. The VDOT standard for the road radii of Northwest Passage required that the layout and orientation of the buildings as shown on the ZMA plan be changed. A more human- scaled and pedestrian- friendly streetscape as well as an increased sense of neighborhood can be achieved by reducing the size of the individual buildings, orienting the buildings parallel to and moving them closer to the road and by the addition of sidewalks and street trees along both sides of the road. 2. Locating residential units between the road currently shown as Northwest Passage and SWM Facility #10 knits the fabric of the different North Pointe neighborhoods together. In the ZMA application plan the residential units in the Northwest Residential Area were disconnected from the rest of North Pointe and the elementary school by a big gap in the development. The Northwest Residential Area Site Plan bridges this distance along the west side of the road by extending the neighborhood towards the school yard. This creates a more interesting pedestrian experience and promotes safety through increased supervision of the sidewalk. Also, with the reduction in the number of residential units per building and with creating a more human scale, the number of buildings increased in order to maintain the same number of residential units as shown on the ZMA application plan. 3. Changing from the ZMA's NWP3 to the ZMA's NWPI road section of Northwest Passage will create a complete street with sidewalks, street trees, and bicycle lanes along both sides of the road. The streetscape created by the NWPI section, when placed in close proximity to the residential buildings, creates a safe multi - modal circulation with a sense of enclosure. In accordance with § 8.5.5.3 c) of the Zoning Ordinance, in order to grant the variation, the Planning Director must make positive findings under 5 criteria. Please provide information about these criteria for the Director's consideration. 1. Is the variation consistent with the goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan? Yes. The variation is in accord with the stated Comprehensive Plan goals of mixed use, as represented in the overall North Pointe community. In both the Comprehensive Plan and the County's Neighborhood Model, designing to human scale, creating neighborhood - friendly streets, orienting the residential buildings towards the street, including pedestrian paths and street trees, as well as reducing setbacks to create a sense of enclosure are emphasized. All of these items are represented in the Northwest Residential Area Site Plan. 2. Does the variation increase the approved development density or intensity of development? No. The density in the Northwest Residential Area is the same as that shown on sheet B of the ZMA. All of the units of "Section T" and "Section U" are shown in the Northwest Residential Area. North Pointe's "Residential Type Breakdown" shows one hundred and thirty "T" units and fifty six "U" units for a total of one hundred and eighty six units, which is also the number of units proposed in the Northwest Residential Area Site Plan. Two "Section K' units and the existing residence are also shown in the area on ZMA sheet B. 3. Does the variation adversely affect the timing and phasing of development of any other development in the zoning district? No. 2 4 IWW 4. Does the variation require a special use permit? No. Residential uses have already been approved for these Tax Map Parcels with Special Use Permit 2002- 072. 5. Is it in general accord with the purpose and intent of the approved rezoning application? Yes. The ZMA application plan showed the Northwest Residential Area as containing 186 multi- family residential units on approximately twenty - one acres. Approximately nineteen acres were reserved for conservation, which preserved large open spaces along the Rivanna River and Flat Branch, the majority of which were to be dedicated to the County. Both the residential and conservation areas were bisected by a spine road which was North Pointe's northern most connection to Route 29. This plan reflects and maintains that purpose and intent. 8.5.5.3 VARIATIONS FROM APPROVED PLANS, CODES, AND DEVELOPMENTS The director of planning and community development may allow a site plan or subdivision plat for a planned development to vary from an approved application plan, standard of development and, also, in the case of a development, as provided herein: a) The director is authorized to grant a variation from the following provisions of an approved plan, code or standard: 1) Minor variations to yard requirements, maximum structure heights and minimum lot sizes; 2) Changes to the arrangement of buildings and uses shown on the plan, provided that the maj or elements shown on the plan and their relationships remain the same; 3) Changes to phasing plans; 4) Minor changes to landscape or architectural standards; and 5) Minor variations to street design. b) Any variation not expressly provided for herein may be accomplished by rezoning.
