Corso Chevy Chase Resubmits Application to Rezone 7100 Connecticut AvenueResident Feedback Requested by Monday, December 12
Corso Chevy Chase has resubmitted its application to the County Planning Department to rezone the former 4-H property at 7100 Connecticut Avenue. The Town is under a compressed timeline to provide feedback since the Planning Department intends to submit comments to the developers on December 16. Therefore, the Town will review the amended application documents, seek advice from the Town's 4-H Committee and our legal counsel, and develop a formal response by Thursday, December 15. We encourage residents to review the application materials and provide feedback to the Town Council at townoffice@townofchevychase.org by Monday, December 12. We note that, while the developers have responded to a number of requests made by the Town, they continue to seek to construct five story buildings around the three sides of the property adjacent to Town residences and have not accommodated the Town's position that these buildings be reduced to four stories. The developers have only reduced the height of the proposed buildings along Connecticut Avenue. Below is a list of several documents that we believe residents will want to focus on. - Building Height Diagram -- This shows how height is defined and how the number of feet translates into the number of stories.
- Massing Imagery -- This provides comprehensive renderings of the proposed buildings from numerous angles.
- Site Sections -- These show the elevation of the buildings looking along an East-West axis and a North-South axis.
- Site Elevation Diagram -- This shows how the plan complies with the County's height compatibility standards.
- Corso's Response to Town Comments -- This is the written response to the Town's initial comments submitted on November 10, 2022.
All resubmitted application documents are available here. We will continue to keep residents informed on how the rezoning application proceeds through the County review process and when there will be opportunities for public engagement.
