Receiving the relevant supplemental information will allow the application to be comprehensively and efficiently reviewed (i)Common understanding of the proposed project • The applicant is proposing to rezone TMP 76-24 to allow for a mixed use development consisting of attached and detached units and some office uses with a proposed density of up to 6 units per acre. • The property submitted two special use permits for the stream crossings in 2010(SP201000044 and SP201000045)which have since been withdrawn.Those requests also included a worksession with the Planning Commission at that time. Comments and recommendations from those applications should be reviewed. (ii)Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan • The majority of the property is designated Neighborhood Density Residential in the Southern and Western Neighborhoods Master Plan which recommends a density between 3 and 6 units per acre. Additionally,this property is shown with a Center designation.A mixture of neighborhood scale uses should be provided within the development in accordance with the recommendations in the Master Plan. • Large portions of the property are designated as Greenspace and should be preserved. • The Plan shows a connector road through the property,the Sunset Ave- Fontaine Ave Connector.This road should be shown on the submitted plan in the general location as shown within the Master Plan.This road will require a special use permit for fill in the floodplain. (iii)Broadly identify the planning,zoning or other issues raised by the application that need to be addressed by the applicant. Important items for consideration with your SP application are as follows: 1 Planning • The developable acreage on the site should correspond to the area shown for Neighborhood Density Residential in the Master Plan.Areas of Greenspace shown in the Plan should be subtracted from the developable acreage. • As stated above, a special use permit will be required for fill in the floodplain for any stream crossing.The Sunset/Fontaine Ave connector road will require a stream crossing. • The Sunset/Fontaine Ave connector road should meet the standards outline in the Master Plan on page 61 and be in the general location shown on the plan. • Depending on the size of the development, a bridge over the railroad may be needed to provide connectivity,as well as for Fire and Rescue purposes. • The application plan should show proposed amenities such as parks and open space. • Private lots should be kept out of preserved slopes. • A traffic study may be required. Not enough information was submitted during the pre-application meeting to make the determination at this time.This may result in additional fees and an extended review before public hearing due to multiple resubmissions of the proposed rezoning. VDOT • A second connection will be required for the public roads in the development. • Provide entrance analysis/turn lane warrants for entrance(s). Engineering • Not enough information was submitted during the pre-application meeting to make a determination that any additional information should be provided.This may result in additional fees due to multiple resubmissions of the proposed rezoning. ACSA • This property is within the water and sewer jurisdictional area.There is an existing 20" RWSA water main along Sunset Ave. Ext. Permission would be required from RWSA to tap this main.This main will adequately serve development area#1. It appears that development area#2 would need to be served by boring the water main under the creek. Or by extending the main, north of the property, by boring under the railroad tracks. • There is an existing 8"ACSA sewer line along Sunset Ave Ext.,an existing 12"ACSA sewer line on the north side of the creek, and an existing 24" RWSA sewer line along the eastern edge of the property. Development of this property will require RWSA sewer flow certification. (iv)Applicable procedures • Community Meeting: o The applicant is required by ordinance to undertake a community meeting process within 30 days of the submittal as part of the review of the ZMA request. o Please coordinate with staff,the PC, and BOS member the community meeting location and time. Staff will attend the meeting to answer questions, but the applicant is responsible for facilitating the discussion. o Notification to all owners within a1/4 mile radius should be sent for the community meeting.The County is no longer requiring these notices to be certified mail, however a copy should be provided to the County with the list of recipients. Since Staff is unsure of the HOA 2 participation/notification for nearby neighborhoods, notification should be to all the property owners. o Samuel Miller District Board and Planning Commission members should also be notified via email of the community meeting. o Since the property is adjacent to the City of Charlottesville, coordination with the City Planner will need to occur for notification the city property owners. (v)Identify the information the applicant must submit with the application,including the supplemental information. • A ZMA application along with the application fee($3763 for ZMA of more than 50 acres), plus the cost of public notice requirements when the application is being processed. • A concept plan that is consistent with Zoning Ordinance requirements for Zoning Map Amendments (see attached checklists). • A narrative addressing elements listed on the ZMA application. • The latest recorded plat(s). • The completed ZMA checklist(attached).
