 URGENT X FOR YOUR USE  PLEASE COMMENT PLEASE REPLY PLEASE

RECYCLE

Introduction The Applicant seeks Concept Site Plan and Preliminary Minor Subdivision Review for a proposed 6,089 SF 4-bay car wash and associated site improvements.

This application is for Concept Site Plan and Preliminary Minor Subdivision Review. The Planning and Zoning Commission’s role is for review and comment. Feedback is important to assist in further consideration as the project is reviewed and to avoid confusion. This memo is intended to provide guidance and outlines a few items that PC should be aware of and wish to discuss further with the applicant.

Review Information for your consideration This application was reviewed by the Town of Centreville Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) on Monday, April 21, 2025.

1 Location The location of the lot to be subdivided in the future is shown on the attached snips from the QAC property viewer to provide an image regarding the general context and location of the property.

Proposed Location of Lot Q Parcel 98 - Stella Lane and Laser Drive Future Land Use (FLU): Planned Business District Centreville Future Land Use Map, Amended May 15, 2025 2 Zoning: Planned Business District (PBD) Centreville Zoning: Excerpts from Town of Centreville Official Zoning Map :

PBD Future Land Use as noted in Town of Centreville Comprehensive Plan: 2040: “Intensive business and light industrial uses are recommended in the Centreville Business Park…. The business park is currently zoned Planned Business Development (District) which permits a variety of commercial land use activities.

PBD Zoning:

§170-29 F.1.l

“Any use permitted in the C-3 District”. C-3 allows car washes (§170-

24. A.7).

Comments The applicant has kindly worked through TAC review comments to address several issues as outlined in their letter. We can provide further context during the meeting if desired re the context of those issues.

Outstanding Issues/Comments for Planning Commission consideration and discussion with the Applicant:

Future application for Subdivision – Minor Subdivision Plat lot “Q” The application includes a preliminary minor subdivision plat for proposed lot “Q” in response to TAC note that Lot N was no longer available.

3

1. The Applicant has updated the Laser Drive to note it as Private Right of Way (ROW),

however it needs to be properly noted that eventually Laser Drive will become and be built/improved to Public ROW standards. Especially re Minor subdivisions as defined in Centreville’s Town Code (§138-5) as “…have frontage on an improved public street or streets...”.

Concept - Sketch Site Plan

1. Same note as Item 1 above – needs to note becoming that eventually Laser Drive will

become and be built/improved to Public ROW standards.

2. The Planning Commission may wish to discuss the location of the vacuum spaces with the

applicant. TAC asked the applicant to consider additional reconfiguration of the proposed site plan, with alternate access and potential relocation of the “vacuum” spaces (similarly to the parking space provision requirements re C-3) to the side or rear of the lot. Additionally, Centreville Design Guidelines Commercial Parking;” Required Standards: Commercial parking lots shall be located behind buildings. Commercial parking lots shall only be

allowed to remain in front of or beside buildings as permitted by the Planning Commission.”

• While the applicant has kindly improved their access but notes and shared with

Town Consultants that vacuum spaces on the sides or rear of the lot “does not align with most car wash business models or practical use of the site, …).

3. The Applicant has nicely addressed the required site plan furnishings to include pedestrian

bench, decorative trash receptacles and special interest plantings all shown to be included in the front buffer yard.

a. Signage: They note that the signage and lighting are included on the plans. However, the next submissions will need to address the requirements of Article IV §170-38 especially Attachment 9, Table 3 Centreville Design Standards regarding signs, number 5. Signage, Page 71, as well as §170-66 (Higher Standards to Prevail).

i. Currently the only item showing the proposed monument sign on the submitted items is its general location. As Planning Commission is aware, monument signs are considered a type of free standing sign in the Town Code and Design standards and applicable standards need to be demonstrated.

b. Lighting: The application still needs to clearly demonstrate compliance §170-47,5.f.

Location of outdoor lighting facilities (lighting plan) as part of site plan, §170-49 Commercial Property Exterior Lighting and Centreville Design Standards number 4.D Commercial Lighting Page 65.

4 c.

4. Buffer yards: Buffer yards (§170-42): While the applicant kindly notes the rear buffer yard along

the rear property line is fully established with existing vegetation and is comprised of a mix of canopy, understory, and evergreen trees along with woody shrub type vegetation and meets or exceeds the requirement, the Planning Commission may wish to consider asking the applicant to quantify this description to demonstrate how the existing buffer meets the requirements of Buffer yard E (PBD and R-1).

Architectural Renderings TAC has not yet reviewed or provided any comments on these, just informed the applicant that they will be required. Planning Commission may wish to review the proposed Architectural renderings with the Town of Centreville Design Guidelines. The following considerations are a minimum to consider when discussing with the applicant.

Roofline Expression Intent- To ensure that rooflines present a distinct profile and appearance for the building and express the neighborhood character.

Required Standards • Commercial buildings shall be designed to promote a pedestrian scale. To attain the continuation of a pedestrian scale, the use of sloping elements shall be required. Any alternative roofline not utilizing sloping elements must be approved by the Planning Commission.

Additional Comments Please note these items that the applicant acknowledges that future PC submittals will address these additional TAC Comments:

• Connect to existing 8” sanitary sewer via a new lateral from Laser; manage curb cuts

carefully.

• Centreville DPW (Kip Matthews) to provide standards for storm drain and wastewater

calculations.

• Verify use of existing storm drain via hydraulic analysis and determine easement

Requirements.

• Install a 1,000-gallon oil sand interceptor.

• Centreville DPW suggests installing a water recycling system because of the 2 self-serve

bays.

• QAC DPW Stormwater Review – Applicant notes additional analysis and calculation will

be completed prior to site plan development and submittal to Town of Centreville.

General Process Comments:

• All criteria of §138-5 and §170-47 to be met for additional submittals to PC.

5

• All comments should be addressed by the applicant prior to submission of Preliminary Site

Plan review.

A proposal to annex the Providence Farm property, referred to as “Providence at Centreville,” was formalized through Resolution 14-2024, which received a favorable recommendation from the Planning Commission. In conjunction, the property was recommended to be rezoned through Ordinance 05- 2024 (effective upon effective on the date the County Commissioner for Queen Anne’s County expressly approve the zoning classification of Traditional Neighborhood Development District (TND) for

the Annexed Property, or 5 years after the effective date of the Resolution 14-2024, whichever occurs first;), and its future land use designation was recommended to be updated to “Complete Neighborhood.” Figure 1: Future Land Use Plan Ordinance 06-2024 revised the Traditional Neighborhood District (TND) zoning to permit the Planning Commission to consider front-loaded garages under specific conditions and to allow TND zoning for

Complete Neighborhood Future Land Use. The Planning Commission also began extensive discussions to update the TND and Planned Unit Development (PUD) approaches, including exploration of formbased codes, regulating plans, and updating design standards to better reflect the vision of Complete Neighborhoods outlined in the Comprehensive Plan.

June 6, 2025 Page 3 Figure 2: Providence Farm Several Future Land Use map amendments were recommended to better align zoning designations with existing and future land use. Notably, parcels at 401 and 409 Kidwell Avenue were changed from Commercial to Residential. Parcels on Map 44C were incorporated into the Central Business District, and the rear portion of Parcel 1056 and Parcel 1085 at 425 S Commerce Street were redesignated from

Resource Conservation Open Space to Commercial. These changes support cohesive planning and efficient development patterns within Centreville’s growth areas.

Numerous development projects progressed during the year, including mixed-use site plans at 216 N.

Commerce Street and 425 S. Commerce Street, including ground-floor commercial space and upperstory apartments. Additional site approvals included commercial expansions in the Centreville Business Park and the YMCA’s outdoor pool and support building.

While no new schools or school-related zoning changes occurred, the Planning Commission and Town Council strongly focused on infrastructure and service alignment to support anticipated growth.

Stormwater management, critical area compliance, and sidewalk connectivity remained key considerations throughout the site plan approval process.

A significant focus was placed on revising and modernizing zoning tools to align with the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. This included updates to the Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) zoning and creating of a Complete Neighborhood Planned Unit Development (PUD) framework designed to encourage diverse housing types, walkability, and integration of open spaces. The Planning Commission pursued a comprehensive

rezoning initiative to address inconsistencies in land use designations, clean up split-zoned properties, and support future growth areas, particularly around the Providence Farm annexation site.

The Planning Commission also worked on improving procedural clarity and transparency. Site plan review standards were updated to define processes and terminology better, and a moratorium on certain development types was adopted to give planners time to implement new zoning strategies. The Town also discussed the need for a full-time zoning administrator, to best assist the Town Manager with zoning

administration duties.

Several initiatives focused on small-scale housing and livability enhancements. These included discussions and planning around tiny homes and pocket neighborhoods as innovative solutions for aging residents and those needing affordable living options. Form-based code elements and transect-based planning were introduced to ensure new developments respect the existing character of neighborhoods while encouraging

mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly environments.

2024 CENTREVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTIVITIES

In 2024, the Centreville Planning Commission maintained an active role in shaping the town's development, focusing heavily on zoning modernization and sustainable growth. The Commission advanced both future land use map and zoning map amendments and pursued procedural improvements, including updated bylaws and clearer site plan standards. It dedicated significant effort to refining the Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND) and

developing the Complete Neighborhood Planned Unit Development framework, often using design exercises and comparisons with regional models like Gibson’s Grant to visualize future developments. Public engagement and interagency coordination were consistent themes, particularly in discussions surrounding stormwater compliance, critical area impacts, and open space integration. The Commission also promoted housing diversity and affordability through

initiatives exploring tiny homes and pocket neighborhoods, highlighting their potential for senior and low-income housing.

170-29.1 Traditional Neighborhood Development District - TND

The TND District is intended to allow development consistent with design principles of a traditional neighborhood.

A traditional neighborhood is compact; is designed for the human and pedestrian scale; provides a mix of residential uses including civic, small scale retail and open space uses in close proximity to one another in the neighborhood;

is architecturally integrated; provides a mix of housing styles, types and sizes to accommodate a variety of households; is integrated into the surrounding communities; incorporates interconnected streets with sidewalks and bikeways and transit that offer multiple routes for motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists and provide for the connections of those streets to existing and future developments and incorporates significant environmental features

into the design.
