Corso Chevy Chase Rezoning Application Now Available for Review
The Town now will begin to review these documents and develop a formal response. We encourage residents to review this information and provide feedback to the Town Council at townoffice@townofchevychase.org. The Council also will seek advice from the Town's 4-H Committee and our legal counsel. Below is a list of several documents that we believe residents will want to focus on initially. We will send additional messages with updates on how the application will proceed through the County review process and when there will be opportunities for public engagement. We also will share with residents a draft of the Town's proposed response to the application. - H-148 02_ Statement of Case_Land Use Report.pdf -- This is a thorough description of the project and how the applicant believes the requirements and burdens for receiving County Council approval of the rezoning application are satisfied.
- H-148 07_ Traffic Statement.pdf -- This statement concludes that a full traffic impact study will not be required pursuant to County regulations since former traffic associated with 4-H operations exceeds projected traffic for Corso.
- H-148 08A_ LMA_Floating Zone Plan.pdf -- This is the detailed sketch plan that shows the entirety of the proposed redevelopment. This also contains a list of “binding elements” setting forth which parts of the plan the developers have proposed as absolute requirements with the other required development entitlements. You will note that many, but not all, of the recommendations made by the Town have been accepted in whole or in part.
- H-148 09C_ Submitted Plan PFCP.pdf with H-148 09B_ Tree Variance Request Letter.pdf -- The Preliminary Forest Conservation Plan (PFCP) shows the forest and trees that will be protected and preserved through the redevelopment of the site (that ultimately leads to protective covenants/easements making preservation mandatory and binding). The Tree Variance letter is essentially an application to remove “specimen trees” as defined by State regulations, and these trees can only be removed by approval of this variance request (and the trees referenced in the letter correspond to the trees numbered on the PFCP).
- H-148 10G_ Phasing Plan.pdf -- This shows how the Applicant intends to redevelop the property in two phases.
