Substantial Accord Determination (SA 26-01) and Rezoning from C-1 and R-2 to CR with Conditional Use Permit approval (RZ-C 26-01) are requests by the Colonial Beach Volunteer Fire Department to allow them to construct a building for equipment and fire apparatus storage with an area for meetings and special events (community facility).

The property is a vacant grassed area with a small portion of the property adjacent to Lenny’s Restaurant being allowed to be used as overflow parking. The property fronts approximately 200 feet along the west line of Garfield Avenue, approximately 50 feet north of Colonial Avenue. The Zoning Ordinance permits an emergency services establishment by-right in the Commercial-Residential (CR) Zoning District and requires approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a community facility. Virginia Code §15.2-2232 requires approval of a Substantial Accord Determination for public facilities to ensure that no public facility is constructed, established or authorized unless the general or approximate location, character and extent thereof has been submitted to and approved by the Planning Commission as being substantially in accord with the adopted Comprehensive Plan or part thereof.
