Pulley, Director CASE: Patuxent Greens Golf Course- Final Site & Landscape Plan GENERAL INFORMATION APPLICANT: ADC Builders Inc. 6290 Montrose Road Rockville, MD 20852 OWNER: Cohen Siegel Investors 6290 Montrose Road Rockville, MD 20852 LOCATION: 14415 Greenview Drive Laurel, MD 20708 ZONE: Planned Unit Development Existing (PUD-E) REQUESTED ACTION: Final Site and Landscape Plan Approval PREVIOUS ACTION: First Annexation 1981 PUD Amendment September 12, 1983 (Resolution No. 16-83) PUD Amendment September 10, 1984 (Resolution No. 12-84) Map Amendment (No. 330) October 22, 1984 (Resolution No. 14-84) Map Amendment (No. 502) June 4, 1990 (Ordinance No. 934) Departure of Approved PUD Plan, December 11, 2017 (17-17-PC) Map Amendment No. 880 (17-16-PC), Ordinance No. 1924, January 22, 2018 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Applicant is seeking Final Site and Landscape Plan approval to re-develop the Patuxent Greens Golf Course, located at 14415 Greenview Drive, Laurel, MD 20708 into a residential community. The subject property consists of 191.71 acres of land and is located on the eastern corner of Greenview Drive and Clubhouse Boulevard. The property is approximately one-tenth of a mile southeast from the intersection of Laurel Bowie Road (Maryland Route 197) and Clubhouse Boulevard. The proposed project is to subdivide land into 222 townhouses and 167 single-family homes for 1 389 residential development units (36.67 acres). The proposal also includes a new 6,784 SF clubhouse, outdoor terrace, 3,000 SF pool, multi-generational playground, two (2) tot lots, hiker/biker trails, comprehensive sidewalk system, utilities, open space areas and landscaping. The property was part of the First 1981 Annexation for the City of Laurel that was enacted on February 2, 1982. Approximately 267 acres of land was annexed and placed into the PUD zone. Furthermore, at the time of annexation an approved preliminary plan to have dwelling units, office, retail and a recreational facility was approved. The approved plan was later amended twice to change the development mix; and once to change the name of the development. The community’s name was amended to Greens of Patuxent in 1984. The surrounding area within one-half mile of the property is comprised of mostly single-family detached and multifamily residential dwelling units with some office, religious, educational, and community uses. The Patuxent River is to the east of the property. Along the western boundary, the property abuts approximately two (2) acres of the City recreational facility that includes, Greenview Drive Pool Complex, Cabana and park. Single-family detached and multifamily residential developments abut forest/parkland along the northern, eastern, and southern boundaries. Across from the Greenview Drive entrance is an office complex known as Lakeview at the Greens. The five (5) story, two- building site, consists of 150,000 SF of Class A office space with on-site surface parking. The two buildings were constructed in the late 1980’s. Furthermore, the two residential communities abutting the proposed project are: Patuxent Glen – 132 dwelling units built in the mid-late 1980’s and Greens of Patuxent- 156 condominiums, distributed as three- story four-plex units built in the mid to late 1980’s. In addition, Spring House Apartments sits northwest to the subject property. The garden style community, which consists of 220 dwelling units, was constructed in the mid-late 80’s. In order to change a use within the PUD-E zone and redevelop a property, Map Amendment approval is required. The Applicant obtained Map Amendment approval on January 22, 2018. The approval allowed the Applicant to proceed with the other required zoning approvals from the City of Laurel Planning Commission. The closure of the Patuxent Greens Golf Course is scheduled for December 31, 2018. The Preliminary Subdivision Plan application for the proposed re-development of the Patuxent Greens Golf Course was heard and tabled at the September 11, 2018 Planning Commission meeting. Therefore, the final site and landscape plan application was not heard. Since then the Applicant has made minor amendments to the proposed community, to address the concerns of the Planning Commission. Below is an overhead of the proposed development area 2 City Departments and Outside Agency Notifications: Department or Agency Comments Received City of Laurel Department of Parks and Recreation Requesting that a maintenance agreement be put in place to ensure that the developer/HOA maintains the property in a reasonable manner that is consistent with City Code and standards. City of Laurel Fire Marshal All concerns have been addressed and have no other issues. Originally, had concerns about emergency vehicle (EV) access in the alleys as well as parking within the alleys. It was determined that there will be no parking in the alleys and signs will be installed to allow EV access throughout the community including the 20’alleys. City of Laurel Police Department After review of the revised plans, there are no issues or concerns at this time. Originally, had concerns about the ingress and egress of the community, as well as EV access in the alleys. City of Laurel Emergency Manager Flood elevation certificate shall be required on every structure. Construction for the site shall be above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) plus two (2) feet of freeboard. The appropriate permits and or special exemptions from MDE and FEMA shall be submitted to the City. City of Laurel Department of Public Works Approved revised Traffic Impact Study (TIS) with comments: The design plan for this traffic circle must be submitted to the City and specifically the Department of Public Works, for additional review and approval. The plan must show all the required signage and pavement markings installations, curb modifications, pedestrian ramp upgrades to meet the ADA standards and decorative crosswalk installations. Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission A Hydraulic Planning Analysis (HPA) for this project is (WSSC) currently under review. The HPA will be a more detailed hydraulic review. A 10-inch water main (Contract No. 1985- 6638A) in Greenview Drive is available to serve the proposed site. A 33-inch gravity sewer main (Contract No. 1957-24126), traversing the property, is available to serve the proposed site. Developments that are proposing trails on their site cannot tie into the existing trails within the Patuxent Watershed. We will reevaluate the design and system conditions at the time of application for water/sewer service. Prince George’s County Health Department See below. Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) No comments received, however the applicant is working with SHA for the proposed off-site improvements on Route 197 (Laurel-Bowie Road). All off-site improvements will require SHA permits. Prince George’s County Schools No impact to Safe Routes to School or adjacent PGCPS properties. Due to the site's separation from existing area neighborhoods all students, residing in the new community will receive transportation to their assigned schools. Install sidewalks on both sides of all streets within the proposed development. Students transported by bus should have safe bus pick-up and drop off areas. 3 Maryland Department of Planning No comments received. Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning No comments received. Commission (MNCPPC) Prince George’s County Department of Permitting, Agency has no objection to the proposed fill in the floodplain Inspections and Enforcement (DPIE) Site/Road for the project.

Prince George’s County Department of Public No comments received. Works and Transportation Laurel Volunteer Fire Department No comments received. Laurel Volunteer Rescue Squad Baltimore Gas and Electric (BGE) No comments received. Verizon No comments received. Prince George's County Health Department The Environmental Engineering/Policy Program of the Prince George's County Health Department has completed a site review relative site plan submission for 14415 Greenview Drive in Laurel MD and has the following comments/recommendations: 1. Pesticides used to control pests on lawns, golf courses and recreational areas may affect individuals that may be sensitive when in contact with the treated areas. The existing site is currently occupied as a golf course and is intended to be redeveloped into a residential community. The applicant may consider the sampling the grounds for potential herbicide and pesticide contaminates that may exist in the soils particularly in the areas of the chemical mixing stations and the t-boxes and greens of the golf course. If detected the applicant should ensure the mitigation efforts according to state and local laws. 2. The property is located in the recharge area for the Patuxent aquifer, a groundwater supply that serves Prince George's county. Golf course maintenance activities can add nitrogen, phosphorus, and other organic and inorganic chemicals that can adversely impact the health of those that rely on the Patuxent aquifer as their water source. Nitrogen concentrations greater than 10 mg/L can cause methemoglobinemia, a dangerous blood disorder in infants. 3. The applicant must ensure that underground storage tanks are not disturbed by excavation or grading activities. Should the soil become contaminated during the construction/demolition activity or should the applicant discover contaminated soils, all impacted soils must be handled in a manner that comports with State and local regulations. The applicant may consider testing the soils for possible contaminates associated with the motorized vehicle maintenance prior to the redevelopment of the existing golf course to a residential community.

The Plan acknowledges the fiscal realities of 2016 capital planning while keeping the needs of the institution as paramount, within the long range vision. The Plan embraces the University’s pride in its history, programs, and campus and lays out a roadmap for development which, if fully implemented, will provide the facilities necessary to satisfy the needs of a modern, comprehensive university. Major drivers influencing this plan include the following: • Academics • Costs and Economics • Quality of Life • Legacy Major considerations included the following: • Institutional objectives and values • The student experience • The campus and campus environment PURPOSE The Plan was undertaken to establish a framework for the physical growth and change that can be anticipated for Bowie State University over the next ten years. It establishes projected enrollment growth and space needs. Several capital projects are identified and others are suggested. For each major project the master plan will need to be followed by programming, design and construction. The master plan does not attempt to design projects but it does provide a campus development plan which suggests locations for specific projects and organizes them within the boundaries of the current campus. METHODOLOGY The team has: • Used existing information to create the base site plan.

Demoga, Chairman Prince George' s County Council County Administration Building Upper Marlboro, Maryland 20772 RE: Bowie and Vicinity Adopted Master Plan and Endorsed SMA Dear Chairman Demoga: The Bowie City Council has considered the specific amendments that are advertised for public hearing in CR- I- 2006. Consistent with past City positions, the Council wishes to offer the following comments: Amendment # 1 - The City opposes rezoning of the Autotech property from the C- S- C zone to the C- M zone. The proposed rezoning would be the only C- M zoning in the Bowie Mainstreet area and would allow intensification of the existing auto repair use and the possible introduction of incompatible redevelopment on the site. Any rezoning should await the findings of the recommended Sector Plan for the Bowie Mainstreet area. Amendment #4 - The City supports downzoning the MD 3/ US 301 median properties to the lowest density possible. We applaud your efforts in this regard. The City Council also wishes to indicate our opposition to Amendment # 21, which proposes rezoning of property in the US 30l/MD 214 median area from the R- A zone to the I- I zone. Amendment # 6 - The City opposes rezoning ofthe Chesley-Gibraltar property from the R-A zone to the C- S- C zone. We request that you honor our Preliminary Master Plan recommendation by retaining existing zoning and returning the property to the Rural Tier.
