Director ofPlannin & Community Uevelopment VWC/jcf Cc: Amelia McCulley Jack Kelsey Tex Weaver Steve Allshouse e ATTACHMENT D During public hearings on the Comprehensive Plan Amendments which preceded the rezoning petition, residents in the Rte. 606 area expressed many concerns about the proposed NorthF ork Business Parle In January, ] 995 staff received copy of a letter from Lake Acres to UREF which proposed inclusion of agreements between Lake Acres and UREF as "specific provisions in the tinal rezoning agreement between the County of Albemarle and the University's Foundation." The ~ - ' original Lake Acres proposal contained 12 items In response to these concerns ] UREF modified the Application Plan to show a ] 50 fè)ot setback buffer along its entire frontage on Rte. 606. ') Sites A, B-1, and B-4 are limited to general oftìce uses. Site B-7 is limited to general ~ - oftìce and í1ex/industrial uses, while Sites B-8 and F-IA are approved for general office, flex/industrial, industrial, and laboratory uses 3 Regarding stormwater and erosion concerns, in addition to applicable County regulation, UREF has developed a master stormwater management plan, proffered to be implemented in phases 4. UREF amended the proffers to include prohibition of stadium or field lighting of the recreation area/playing fields in the open space area between sites B-4 and B-7 (Staff recommends that this not be deemed to be a prohibition to appropriate security and street lighting). 5. VDOT has agreed to staff recommendation that bridge weight limitation signage be placed at the Quail RunlRte. 606 intersection. While this would not prohibit truck traffic on Rte. 606 north of Quail Run, it would be a forewarning to responsible truck drivers. 6. VDOT has agreed to delete recommendation that a dedicated right turn lane be constructed from Quail Run onto Rte. 606. Such a feature could entreat general traffic to travel north on Rte. 606. 7. UREF changed the Application Plan to delete direct access from Site F-1A to Rte. 606. All development sites will be accessed only by the internal road system with no direct access to external roadways.
