The applicant is proposing to develop a
975-lot residential subdivision in the New Baltimore Service
District on approximately 900 acres of land.
The assemblage of land includes the former Waterfield
site (currently approved for 667 dwelling units in a PRD zoning
district) along with other adjacent lands (Gerber tracts, etc.)
that are zoned R-1 (Residential).
The former Waterfield site is now referred to as
Brookside Farm, while the R-1 land is referred to as Brookside.
The applicant is seeking the following approvals in
association with their companion proposal for a rezoning
amendment and preliminary subdivision:
1)
A Comprehensive Plan Amendment to extend public sewer into a non-sewered
area of the New Baltimore Service District.
This application applies to Brookside.
2)
Special Exception applications to reduce the amount of open space
required (Brookside), to allow for floodplain crossings and
floodplain uses (Brookside and Brookside Farm) and to allow the
construction of public utility facilities (Brookside and
Brookside Farm.)
The
associated proffer amendment application for the former
Waterfield site is discussed under a separate agenda request
item. In addition,
the applicant has filed a preliminary subdivision plat; however,
that request will not be forwarded until the Board of
Supervisors acts on the other requests.
The
applicant has requested that these combined applications be
tracked concurrently through the public hearing process.
Because of the rezoning and comprehensive plan amendment,
this means the Board of Supervisors has one year from the
application acceptance date (May 30, 2001) to make a decision,
unless the applicant agrees to additional postponements.
