1) New Alexandria - 6414 13th street - Special Exception for fill in the flood plain. This is a return for update and vote. The Staff Report will not be available in time for the Committee to review the report. From the applicant: “the existing house and improvements on the lot are to be removed and a new house constructed. This project will require some fill within the 100-year floodplain and require a special exception.” 2) Fairfax County Dept of Transportation (FCDOT) has proposed a Transit Center in Gum Springs at the old Belle Haven Lodge site at the intersection of Richmond Highway and Fordson Lane. This presentation is by Gum Springs representative Queenie Cox in opposition to the plans by FCDOT. The property owner, who has no intention of selling the property, has proposed a retail use that is supported by Gum Springs. The assumption is that FCDOT would use eminent domain to seize the property.

1) New Alexandria - 6414 13th street - Special Exception for fill in the flood plain. From the applicant: “the existing house and improvements on the lot are to be removed and a new house constructed. This project will require some fill within the 100-year floodplain and require a special exception.” 2) The Grande at Huntington - a partnership has formed to redevelop the parcel on the north side of Kings Crossing between Richmond Highway (RH) and North Kings Highway (NKH). The property addresses are 6220 RH, 6228 RH, and 6117 NKH. From the applicant: “a development of multi-family residential over first floor retail on approximately 4 acres. The proposal will include an urban design consistent with the redevelopment objectives of the Richmond Highway Corridor and the Commercial Revitalization District.” The project calls for residential over ground level retail. The approval involves several steps. First, an Out-of-Turn Comprehensive Plan amendment (OTPA) needs to be adopted, then the rezoning and development plan need approval. The Plan currently recommends low-rise office use up to .35 FAR and retail up to 0.5 FAR; it needs to include an option for mix use development. Tonight we are considering the OTPA - keeping in mind that once the Plan amendment is adopted, if the current proposal does not go forward, the amendment stays in force and can be used by a future owner. |
