SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
/~
The Wolf Creek Planned Residential Development (PRO) was approved by the Board of
Supervisors in October 1995 and amended by the Board in August 1997. Over the years
as the development progressed, several amenities and features were not constructed as
part of the planned development. In September 2007, the County received an application
to amend the Wolf Creek PRO in response to a violation notice sent to the developers.
During the past 18 months, the County has held numerous meetings with the Wolf Creek
residents and developers seeking to resolve many issues associated with the
development. In June 2008 and in October 2008, settlement agreements were finalized
with the developers of the various sections of Wolf Creek. An updated Wolf Creek PRD
Amendment application was submitted on February 6, 2009, incorporating changes listed
in the settlement agreements.
County staff will review the updated Wolf Creek PRO Amendment application with the
Board of Supervisors and Planning Commission at the Work Session. Public hearings on
the Wolf Creek PRD Amendment application are scheduled for April 7th for the Planning
Commission and for April 28th for the Board of Supervisors.

JUSTIFICA liON FOR REZONING OR SPECIAL USE PERMIT REQUEST
Applicant:
Wolf Creek, Inc.
The Planning Commission will study rezoning) special use permit waiver or community plan (15.2-2232)
review requests to determine the need and justification for the change in terms of public health, safety,
and general welfare. Please answer the following questions as thoroughly as possible. Use additional
space if necessary.
Please explain how the request furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Ordinance as well
as the purpose found at the beginning of the applicable zoning district classification in the Zoning
Ordinance.
Wolf Creek, and its related development communities, was the first Planned Residential Development
to be proposed and constructed within Roanoke County. The acreage of the entire community amounts
to a little more than 38 acres and the development within is a mix of single-family homes, deck homes
and village homes. The various communities within the greater Wolf Creek development (RichardJs
Wood, Beech Cove, Villages at Stone Creek, Rock,bridge and the single-family homes along Wolf Crest
and Wolf Run) are supported and separated by various portions of undisturbed and undeveloped open
space.
The purpose of a Planned Residential Development District (PRO), as set forth at Section 30-47, et.
seq., of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance, is to provide for the development of residential
communities that incorporate a variety of housing options. Additionally, the Zoning Ordinance requires
that a PRO include significant areas of open space as Ua means to maintain critical natural and cultural
resources." These two main purposes of a PRD are met by the Wolf Creek development.
This request brought by the developer(s) is to revise and update the Master Plan. Specifically, the
developer seeks to provide a more clear and definite description of the design guidelines for development
of both the residences and the open space within the Wolf Creek community. The updated Master Plan
will more clearly set forth the amenities to be included within the open space. Lastly, this updated Master
Plan will provide a benchmark by which Roanoke County can evaluate any future development or
renovation of the residences therein.
Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contained in the
Roanoke County Community Plan.
The Vision Statements in Chapter Two of the Roanoke County Community Plan set forth various goals
with respect to development and growth within the County. The Third Vision Statement regarding
Housing called for uopen spacesll to be provided within cluster developments and innovative site design
concepts. The First Vision Statement regarding Growth Management and Planning called for the use of
"open space" as an integral part of communities. The proposed Master Plan for this PRD clarifies the
boundaries and amenities for various open spaces within the Wolf Creek development.
The Future land Use Plan indicates that the property subject to this revised Master Plan shall be
identified as IlDevelopment." Chapter Three of the Community Plan sets forth certain issues regarding
parcels identified as development. Specifically, the objectives for such areas of residential growth include
the encouragement of planned residential communities that protect and incorporate environmental
features and resources within the development. The parcels of land subject to this rezoning are within a
planned residential community. Most importantly, the revised Master Plan ensures that certain
environmental features and resources will be both protected and incorporated within the Wolf Creek
development.
Please describe the impact(s) of the request on the property itself, the adjoining properties, and
the surrounding area, as well as the impacts on public services and facilities, including
water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation and fire and rescue.
This rezoning will not result in any significant change or impact upon the parcels subject to the
rezoning} the adjoining parcels or the greater neighborhood. Rather} this submission of a revised Master
Plan is focused upon the goal of clarifying the amenities and design guidelines for the greater Wolf Creek
development.
I JUSTIFICATION FOR VARIANCE REQUEST
Applicant
WOLF CREEK, INC.
The of Zoning Appeals isrequired by Section 15.2-2309 of the Code of Virginia to consider the following factors before a variance
can be granted. Please read the factors listed below carefully and in your own words, describe how the request meets each factor. If
additional space is needed, use additional sheets of paper.
1. The variance shall not be contrary to the public interest and shall be in halmony with the intended spirit and purpose of the
Zoning Ordinance.
2. The strict application of the zoning ordinance would produce undue hardship; a hardship that approaches confiscation (as
distinguished frOIn a special privilege or convenience) and would prohibit or unreasonably restrict the use of the property.
3. The hardship is not shared by other properties in the same zoning district or vicinity. Such hardships should be addressed by
the Board of Supervisors as alnendments to the Zoning Ordinance.
4. The variance will not be of a substantial detriment to the adjacent propelties or the character of the district.

JUSTIFICATION FOR ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL REQUEST
Applicant WOLF CREEK, INC.
Please respond to the following as thoroughly as possible. If additional space is needed, use additional sheets of paper.
1. Reasons for appeal:
2. Evidence supporting claim:
5
I CONCEPT PLAN CHECKLIST
A concept plan of the proposed project Inust be sublnitted with the application. The concept plan shall graphically depict the
land use change, develoPlnent or variance that is to be considered. Further, the plan shall address any potential land use or
design issues arising from the request. In such cases involving rezonings, the applicant may proffer conditions to liInit the future
use and developlnent of the property and by so doing, COITect any deficiencies that may not be manageable by County pennitting
regulations.
The concept plan should not be confused with the site plan or plot plan that is required prior to the issuance of a building pennit.
Site plan and building pelmit procedures ensure compliance with State and County develoPlnent regulations and may require
changes to the initial concept plan. Unless limiting conditions are proffered and accepted in a rezoning or imposed on a special
use permit or variance, the concept plan may be altered to the extent permitted by the zoning district and other regulations.
A concept plan is required with all rezoning, special use pennit, waiver, cOlnlllunity plan (15.2-2232) review and variance
applications. The plan should be prepared by a professional site planner. The level of detaillnay vary, depending on the nature

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
INTRODUCTI N
WOLF CREEK CONCEPT
Wolf Creek is a 38-acre planned community of residences adjacent to the Blue Ridge
Parkway in Roanoke County, Virginia. The community is proposed as Roanoke County's
first Planned Residential Development (PRO) and will offer an alternative to typical
subdivision developments which can be designed without regard to the surrounding
landscape. Because the design of Wolf Creek is based on a commitment to be a
compatible adjacent use to the Blue Ridge parkway, the design responds by
incorporating the community into the surrounding agricultural and residential land use
patterns.
Vital towns and villages, meadows, fields and farms, and forests compose the cultural
landscape of the western Virginia's Blue Ridge parkway corridor. These four elements
are incorporated into the design of Wolf Creek.
The massing diagram on page 13 illustrates the four land use types at Wolf Creek. Park
lands are the front of the property, and are designed to be meadows visible from the Blue
Ridge Parkway. Much of this land was determined to be critical viewshed of the
Parkway, and the land is proposed to be ultimately conveyed to the homeowners'
association. A second subset of park lands are lands retained by the homeowner's
association. These lands include the loop of trails and amenities located in the lowlands
and floodplain, with tie-ins to the remainder of the neighborhood.
In the center of the land is the village at Stone Creek with consistent street frontage
patterns and landscaped courtyards that will follow in the tradition of nearby towns such
as Fincastle, and design guidelines require timeless construction tradition that can be
found in much older Virginia towns. Wolf Creek's pedestrian scale, consistent street
frontage patterns, trees, wide sidewalks and landscaped courtyards will follow in the
tradition of nearby towns such as Fincastle, and design guidelines require timeless
construction tradition that can be found in much older Virginia towns. This village is
designed as a scene visible to the Blue Ridge Parkway. Virginia highland towns, such as
Meadows of Dan, provided a similar visual experience for the Parkway visitor.
To the south of the Village at Stone Creek is Richard's Wood at the wood's edge and
across the dell is Beech Cove. Out of primary view of the Blue Ridge Parkway, these are
inwardly-focused toward Muse's Dell.
The remainder of the site is divided into 33 single family lots and one lot containing a
stormwater management facility which range in size from ~ to 1 acre. These are sited in
the rear of the field and the woods, in the distant view of the Parkway. They also are
designed to be compatible with adjacent lands uses to the north and west.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
PROJECT LOCATION
Wolf Creek is located in the eastern half of Roanoke County, 65 yards off of the Blue
Ridge Parkway motor road, and % mile north of Virginia Route 24. The property is one
mile east of Vinton, seven miles east of downtown Roanoke and Interstate 581.
The site's slightly rolling topography is typical of Virginia's Shenandoah Valley and has
influenced the form of many Virginia towns. Nearby FincastleJ Lexington} Bedford all
exhibit character based on village patterns which have agricultural foregrounds and are
sit~? on rol~i.~g te~rain.

DESIGN PROCESS
Critical to the success of this project is building of consensus toward a solution
acceptable to the National Park Service, Roanoke County, Town of Vinton, and adjacent
land owners. Realizing the importance of consensus-building, the partners of Wolf
Creek, Inc. the project's developer, helped to fund the three day workshop entitled
"Partnership Planning for lands adjacent to the Blue Ridge Parkway," held January 25-
27, 1995 at the Vinton War Memorial.
This workshop, coordinated by the Coalition for the Blue Ridge Parkway, brought
together people of various disciplines from the Coalition, land owners, Roanoke County
staff and board members, a private-sector planning team, and staff from the Blue Ridge
Parkway. The purpose of the workshop was to create designs and reach consensus on
infrastructure issues that face several proposed developments in the Roanoke Valley
adjacent to the Blue Ridge Parkway.
The workshop included a series of intense design sessions and presentation/critiques to
the collective audience.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
The workshop format allowed expertise groups to form. Gary Johnson, Chief of
Resource Planning and Professional Services, and Will Orr, Park Landscape Architect
with the Blue Ridge Parkway, drew an analysis map of the Wolf Creek property, showing the
critical viewsheds and the resources that were most important to protect. This is below.
Two site-specific guidelines emerged that are
important for the property. The lanes can be split
at the entrance, providing quality sense-af-place
with landscaping and signage for residents, while
ameliorating the view of the entrance as seen from
the Parkway. A second objective is to create
"Landscape Protection Zones," or LPZs, along the
rear property lines and along roadways. These
zones utilize the existing tree canopy to partially-
screen development scenes in layers parallel to
the Parkway.
Steve Musselwhite presented the workshop with
his "Report to the Members of the Design
Workshop of Lands Adjacent to the Blue Ridge
Parkway in Roanoke County Virginia" on January
27. This report provided the basis for design
guidelines and planning a community that is both
consistent with the Blue Ridge Parkway guidelines
and employs traditional building practices that are
desirable in home-building today.

SENSE OF PLACE
Wolf Creek is located in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. Agrarian fields, pastures and
meadows; barns, rail fences and stone walls; vital villages and towns - all with the Blue
Ridge and Alleghany mountains in the background - create the Shenandoah Valley's
unique sense of place.
The Blue Ridge Parkway drops into the Valley only briefly over its 470 mile length. As
described by the Parkway's founding landscape architect, Stanley Abbott, "these dips
into valleys provide a few notes of staccato that enhance an otherwise melodious
symphony. "
By incorporating the characteristics of the Valley's vernacular landscape into the design
of Wolf Creek, the Valley's sense of place will be preserved and interpretable for visitors.
Architectonic forms in the Valley include those reminiscent of more traditional "old Virginia"
building styles in contrast to the "pioneer" style used on the mountain tops. Although there is
an attempt to be compatible with the Parkway, the Developer looks to Fincastle and
Williamsburg for development comparables, and for examples of sense of place.

types of Wolf creek. Their vitality is in
part due to their streetscapes which
create a community oriented,
pedestrian-friendly and highly functional
environment. The major design
elements which contribute to the
success of these towns are 1) the linear
town pattern, 2) the high density of
buildings which create the street's edge,
and 3) the courtyard and park spaces
woven into the residential fabric. The
consistency of details such as gateways,
roof slopes and cornices create a
rhythm, giving each developed area a
unique sense of place.
TIMELESS BUilDING ELEMENTS
These photos depict the character desired for the
homes of Wolf Creek. The village sections, Village at
Stone Creek, Rockbridge, and Beech Cove, may be
the most controlled architecturally, and exhibit these
qualities most thoroughly.

SITE AND SITUATION
WATER, VEGETATION AND WilDLIFE
There are 4.77 acres of the site in the flood plain. These areas are in the two swales on
the property. In addition to its safety hazard, the floodplain lands provide for a diversity of
wildlife. Although these areas of the site have been grazed, the lowlands have the
greatest potential for wetlands habitats. A few specimen sycamore and beech trees are
in the lowlands.
Upland mixed vegetation forest, consisting of oaks, poplar, beech, and mature maple and
Virginia pine covers 20.70 acres of the site. Several large groupings of mountain laurel
indicate the woods have been undisturbed for some time.
Meadow makes up 17.45 acres of the site. There is very little tree coverage in the
meadow except for a few clumps of locust. These may indicate outcroppings which are
difficult to mow and graze.
The Natural Heritage Survey indicates no endangered species are known to exist on the
property.
HISTORIC RESOURCES
There are no documented historic resources on the site. An old farmhouse exists off of
Laurel Glen Lane, including outbuildings and old pump. None of the artifacts are
substantial, and they will be razed as part of construction.
UTiliTIES
Both public water and sewer, applied-for through the Town of Vinton, are proposed for
this development. Sewer requires an off site extension, which will cross under the Blue
Ridge Parkway and tie into the existing sewer interceptor at Stonebridge subdivision in
the Town of Vinton. An 8" sewer line is proposed. An 8" water line will supply both
domestic and fire protection needs. This will be placed off of an existing 6" line on Laurel
Glen Road.
Both sewer and water lines will meet the standards of both Town of Vinton and Roanoke
County. A larger set of sewer and water plans will accompany the site plan submittal.
With the completion of the National Park Service environmental assessment, it is predicted
these services can be in place by spring 1996 and will serve the houses as soon as the first
phase is finished construction, summer of 1996.

LAND USE PLAN
LAND USE
The land use of Wolf Creek will be divided into four categories: 1) Park lands} 2) Village
homes (Village at Stone Creek, Rockbridge and Beech Cove), 3) Deck homes (Richard's
Wood), and 4) Single-Family homes along Wolf Run and Wolf Crest. The park lands are
located on the front of the property and in the floodplain dells. The village homes are in the
center to north center of the property. Deck homes are south of Wolf Run. Single family
homes are located behind the fields and woods on the north and east sides of the property.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
MASTE
LAN
Wolf Creek is designed as a series of neighborhoods responding to site conditions of the
property. The neighborhoods are Village at Stone Creek, Rockbridge, Richard's Wood,
Beech Cove, Wolf Crest and Wolf Run. Each neighborhood is distinguished by housing
type and roadway alignment.
VILLAGE HOME NEIGHBORHOODS
Village at Stone Creek, Rockbridge and Beech Cove are the three village home
neighborhoods. Village homes are named for their distinctive placement in an intimate
arrangement that draws on the land use patterns of European villages and colonial
American development.
Modeled after Williamsburg dwellings, substantial houses (1650 min. sf) of 1 to 2 stories
above grade are placed closely together with large blocks of common open space
adjacent. In the case of colonial precedent, the open spaces were grazing and
farmlands. In the case of Wolf Creek, these lands are dedicated park lands, wildflower
meadows, and creekside walking trails.
Each village home owns a small patio and has at least one reserved outdoor parking
space in a driveway. Most village homes have two-car attached garages. Additional
parking areas are provided for visitors. Common areas between homes are maintained
by the homeowner's association, which also cares for exterior parking, private streets,
sidewalks, and other common areas and park lands.
DECK HOME NEIGHBORHOODS
Richard's Wood is the development's deck home neighborhood. This area is designed to
take advantage of the slopes facing Muse's Dell on the southern property. Deck homes
are designed to maximize the open land in common open space areas. The entire
landscape of the deck home areas is maintained by the Richard's Wood homeowner's
association. A maximum of 15 buildable lots are permitted in Richard's Wood.
SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS
Wolf Run and Wolf Crest end in cul-de-sacs, creating neighborhoods of single-family
houses. Buyers may purchase lots in these areas and build their own houses. A set of
design guidelines enforced by the Architectural Review Committee, will provide
substantial influence and require that design concept and quality is maintained.
14
WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
ACCESS
Access to Wolf Run is from Mountain View Road (State Route 651). From Mountain View
Road, a two lane boulevard, Wolf Run, becomes the development's main street along
which turns can be made onto Jenny Lane and Stone Creek Path. Wolf Run then
narrows to two lanes, and Wolf Crest is accessed before Wolf Run ends in a cul-de-sac.
A second entrance to Beech Cove a village home section of the development is off of
Laurel Glen Lane.
To ensure the integrity of the above stated design concept, a set of guidelines will direct
the design and development of the plan. The Wolf Creek Homeowner's Association will
ensure that the guidelines are followed in addition to overseeing maintenance of the
development's amenities.
MARKET TARGET
The mix of housing types, high amenity orientation and preservation of natural resources
is intended to bring a variety of residents to the site. In addition to young families, it is
anticipated that empty nesters and seniors will become site residents.
PARK LAN DS
A 10.11 acre park featuring a wildflower meadow, mowed and landscaped areas, walking
trails and a dry pond (which doubles as a retention area) will provide residents and
visitors of Wolf Creek with the opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty of the Valley. The
meadow is intended to be ultimately conveyed to the hOllleowners' Association.
Maintenance on this parcel will be through the homeowner's association. Trails and a
seating area / gazebo are planned.
A second group of park lands include the streamside trails that lead from the meadow to
Muse's Dell, with a loop trail for exercise and enjoying the scenery. Amenities along this
trail include benches, foot bridges, tree labels, and flower plantings. These trails and park
lands will be semiprivate, in the care of the homeowner's association. An Open Space
Master Plan follows the Wolf Creek Master Plan data on page 16.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
OPEN SPACE PLAN
1. A wildflower meadow in the front of the property is adjacent to Mountain View
Road. With an orchard at the rear of this area, it is maintained to appear as a part
of the National Park. The trails through this land are, universally accessible. The
land adjacent to the trail will be mowed more closely. The outside of the upper trail
is the property line.
2. Lining the meadow through the rear of the property is a Homeowner's Association
owned and operated variable width streamside trail loop that crosses Wolf Creek
on a small bridge, traverses the gorge adjacent to the creek and then climbs
between two lots before going into Muse's Dell and returning to the front of the
property.
3. In Muse's Dell, a picnic seating area will be provided with two picnic tables and
two park benches.
4. Trails will be constructed in locations shown on the "Wolf Run/Wolf Crest, Beech
Cove and Richard's Wood proposed amenities" map, dated May 6, 2008. Trail
amenities to be installed along the trails included two benches, 1 to 2 foot bridges
depending upon trail placement, 3-5 planting beds adjacent to the walking trail
measuring 40 sq ft each, tree labels for trees of significance by species placed
adjacent to the walking trail, and trail signs located at trail entrances or
intersections.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
DESIGN GUIDELINES OUTLINE STATEMENT
I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Objective
The objective of this project is to create a planned residential community that maximizes
site resources and is visually compatible with the adjacent Blue Ridge Parkway. By using
the local context of village, meadow and forest as the theme for the community's design;
following environmentally sensitive development policies; and interpreting traditional town
planning principles in innovative ways to meet the needs of today, Wolf Creek will
provide a quality home atmosphere and beautiful setting for new development.
Association
All property owners at Wolf Creek are automatically members of Wolf Creek
Homeowners Association, Inc. The members elect the Architectural Committee to
resolve design and maintenance issues. Each year the committee can be composed of
different members except for the master developer, who will be a member with majority
voting power until the last lot is sold. The master developer may appoint another member
in his place if he so chooses. The committee's primary function will be to review design
proposals. Other responsibilities will include assessing annual dues for maintenance and
upkeep of the property, determining the maintenance and capital improvement budget,
and deciding community capital improvement and maintenance projects.
Membership Levels
There will be different levels of membership in the Association, depending on type of
home or lot purchased. Because of the different levels of maintenance required, there will
be different levels of homeowner's association fee assessed to each type of unit. This will
be more thoroughly discussed in the declaration of Codes, Covenants and Restrictions,
developed during the fall, 1995.
Design Guidelines
The design guidelines are written with the intent to guide the development and
maintenance of Wolf Creek. They are meant to establish the overall character of the
community as well as to provide a springboard for the design process. All homes
constructed in the single-family section of Wolf Creek will be subject to review and
approval of the Architectural Committee of the Wolf Creek Homeowners Association, Inc.
These guidelines will indicate acceptable and unacceptable construction materials for the
primary and related structures, site design and landscaping. These guidelines are not
meant to cover all site-specific adaptations, nor should they be used as a substitute for
common sense and in each case should be applied to better the objective, described
above. The Architectural Review Committee shall review design solutions taking into
consideration the overall quality of the design, materials, and colors to be used.
21
WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
II. CIRCULATION
PRINCIPLES GUIDING CIRCULATION
The main entrance road should be distinct, with landscaped median.
The traditional main street found in many Shenandoah Valley towns provides inspiration
for the Village home plan.
Wolf Run - Entrance Area
The entrance area consists of two single lanes with a landscaped median. Meadow
Trail, along the eastern side of the entrance is setback from the curbs as topography
allows. This road will be dedicated to VDOT. Maintenance for the road will be by VDOT.
Maintenance for the landscape - both median and adjacent to the roadway - is proposed
by the homeowner's association.
Wolf Run and Wolf Crest
The two-lane road through the single-family parts of the PRD is dedicated to VDOT in 50'
rights-of-way. These 30' roads will feature asphalt construction, lined with curb and
gutter. Maintenance for these roads will be by VDOT.
Village Streets
Used as the main street in the village home areas of Village at Stone Creek, Rockbridge,
and Beech Cove, the asphalt road is constructed with curb and gutter. Except for Village
at Stone Creek, a 3' stamped concrete sidewalk in a herringbone, brick pattern or a
herringbone brick sidewalk is placed behind the curb. A special paving surface will
distinguish the entrance areas into these neighborhoods.
Deck Home Streets and Parking
Richards Wood is distinguished by a special entrance paving zone, and will have an 18'
wide street. This street will remain private, will have curb and gutter, and will have
stamped concrete sidewalks on the side of the street toward houses. Maintenance for
sidewalks and private streets will be by the Homeowners' Association.

land adjacent to the trail will be mowed more closely. The outside of the upper trail
is the property line.
2. Lining the meadow through the rear of the property is a Homeowner's Association
owned and operated variable width streamside trail loop that crosses Wolf Creek
on a small bridge, traverses the gorge adjacent to the creek and then climbs
between two lots before going into Muse's Dell and returning to the front of the
property.
3. In Muse's Dell, a picnic seating area will be provided with two picnic tables and
two park benches.
4. Trails will be constructed in locations shown on the "Wolf Run/Wolf Crest, Beech
Cove and Richard's Wood proposed amenities" map, dated May 6, 2008. Trail
amenities to be installed along the trails included two benches, 1 to 2 foot bridges
depending upon trail placement, 3-5 planting beds adjacent to the walking trail
measuring 40 sq ft each, tree labels for trees of significance by species placed
adjacent to the walking trail, and trail signs located at trail entrances or
intersections.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
DESIGN GUIDELINES OUTLINE STATEMENT
I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Objective
The objective of this project is to create a planned residential community that maximizes
site resources and is visually compatible with the adjacent Blue Ridge Parkway. By using
the local context of village, meadow and forest as the theme for the community's design;
following environmentally sensitive development policies; and interpreting traditional town
planning principles in innovative ways to meet the needs of today, Wolf Creek will
provide a quality home atmosphere and beautiful setting for new development.
Association
All property owners at Wolf Creek are automatically members of Wolf Creek
Homeowners Association, Inc. The members elect the Architectural Committee to
resolve design and maintenance issues. Each year the committee can be composed of
different members except for the master developer, who will be a member with majority
voting power until the last lot is sold. The master developer may appoint another member
in his place if he so chooses. The committee's primary function will be to review design
proposals. Other responsibilities will include assessing annual dues for maintenance and
upkeep of the property, determining the maintenance and capital improvement budget,
and deciding community capital improvement and maintenance projects.
Membership Levels
There will be different levels of membership in the Association, depending on type of
home or lot purchased. Because of the different levels of maintenance required, there will
be different levels of homeowner's association fee assessed to each type of unit. This will
be more thoroughly discussed in the declaration of Codes, Covenants and Restrictions,
developed during the fall, 1995.
Design Guidelines
The design guidelines are written with the intent to guide the development and
maintenance of Wolf Creek. They are meant to establish the overall character of the
community as well as to provide a springboard for the design process. All homes
constructed in the single-family section of Wolf Creek will be subject to review and
approval of the Architectural Committee of the Wolf Creek Homeowners Association, Inc.
These guidelines will indicate acceptable and unacceptable construction materials for the
primary and related structures, site design and landscaping. These guidelines are not
meant to cover all site-specific adaptations, nor should they be used as a substitute for
common sense and in each case should be applied to better the objective, described
above. The Architectural Review Committee shall review design solutions taking into
consideration the overall quality of the design, materials, and colors to be used.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
II. CIRCULATION
PRINCIPLES GUIDING CIRCULATION
The main entrance road should be distinct, with landscaped median.
The traditional main street found in many Shenandoah Valley towns provides inspiration
for the Village home plan.
Wolf Run - Entrance Area
The entrance area consists of two single lanes with a landscaped median. Meadow
Trail, along the eastern side of the entrance is setback from the curbs as topography
allows. This road will be dedicated to VDOT. Maintenance for the road will be by VDOT.
Maintenance for the landscape - both median and adjacent to the roadway - is proposed
by the homeowner's association.
Wolf Run and Wolf Crest
The two-lane road through the single-family parts of the PRD is dedicated to VDOT in 50'
rights-of-way. These 30' roads will feature asphalt construction, lined with curb and
gutter. Maintenance for these roads will be by VDOT.
Village Streets
Used as the main street in the village home areas of Village at Stone Creek, Rockbridge,
and Beech Cove, the asphalt road is constructed with curb and gutter. Except for Village
at Stone Creek, a 3' stamped concrete sidewalk in a herringbone, brick pattern or a
herringbone brick sidewalk is placed behind the curb. A special paving surface will
distinguish the entrance areas into these neighborhoods.
Deck Home Streets and Parking
Richards Wood is distinguished by a special entrance paving zone, and will have an 18'
wide street. This street will remain private, will have curb and gutter, and will have
stamped concrete sidewalks on the side of the street toward houses. Maintenance for
sidewalks and private streets will be by the Homeowners' Association.

OPEN SPACE PLAN
1. A wildflower meadow in the front of the property is adjacent to Mountain View
Road. With an orchard at the rear of this area, it is maintained to appear as a part
of the National Park. The trails through this land are, universally accessible. The
land adjacent to the trail will be mowed more closely. The outside of the upper trail
is the property line.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
SETBACK AND THE LANDSCAPE PROTECTION ZONE
1. Houses will be set back 30' from the edge of right-of-way for public roads,
10' for each side yard, and 25' from the rear yard. No site or landscape
structures may be built in the back 20' of rear yard.
2. No tree with a diameter of over 6" caliper shall be removed unless
necessary for construction of the primary residence. Virginia Pines and
other hazard trees may be excluded from this rule. Where possible, a tree
survey with all 6" cal. and over trees denoted is required to be reviewed by
the Architectural Review Committee and the Roanoke County planning staff
prior to the issuance of a building permit. Trees which are so close to the
house as to be compromised during construction or present a possible
danger after construction despite careful and prudent construction activity,
may be excluded from these requirements after review and approval of the
Architectural Review Committee and county planning staff.
Front setback - 30'
Driveway cut zone
Sideyard setback - 10'
House cut zone - offset rectangle
Rearyard setback - 25'
Landscape Protection
3. For those lots situated in the woods, no tree above 6" cal. will be removed
in the front of the house between house and roadway, except for a swath
the desired width for driveway paving, with as much as 3' allowed on each
side beyond the edge of pavement. This shall be delineated on the tree
survey, mentioned above.

WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
IV. LANDSCAPE GUIDELINES
The landscape of Wolf Creek is integral to its success. Each area composes part of the
entire landscape of Wolf Creek. The planted motor courts and courtyards will provide
quiet places for resting and relaxing outdoors. Behind village motor courts, adjacent to
the Wolf Crest lots, fruit trees planted in rows will provide orchards in addition to
providing shade and wind protection. The landscape for the Meadow will be of a more
rural character to blend in with the countryside, and the Blue Ridge Parkway beyond. The
ground plane materials shall be brick, stamped concrete made to look like brick, native
stone, or brown pebble. Each motor court shall have a minimum of either 2 planting beds
(total minimum area + 40 s.f.) or two trees. Maintenance of these will be the responsibility
of the homeowners association.
Village Landscape Guidelines
Motor courts
The ground plane materials shall be brick, stamped concrete made to look like brick,
native stone or brown pebble. Each motor court shall have a minimum of either 2 planting
beds (total minimum area = 40s.f.) or two trees. Maintenance of these will be the
responsibility of the homeowners association.
Pedestrian Walkways
Each public pedestrian walkway shall be punctuated with planting beds in areas that do
not already feature natural amenities. An Arbor will be constructed in Beech Cove in the
open space across from the entrance. Maintenance of these will be the responsibility of
the homeowners association.
Front and Rear yards
Areas for individual expression, there will be a small lot of land which accommodates
each village home. Between the fence and the front door, for example, or between the
back door and the street, each home has its own plaza, averaging 120 s.f., with adjacent
areas for individual gardens, which is the responsibility of the individual homeowner to
maintain. Fences, trails, trees, and plantings will be used to create spaces as well as to
screen unsightly elements.
Deck Home Landscape Guidelines
In contrast to the wooded quality of the single-family lots and the cultivated quality of the
village landscape, the landscape of Richard's Wood is designed to represent a wood's
edge environment. Houses are perched to be exactly on the woods edge, with a meadow
landscape in front and woodlands in back. Because of this unique and fragile concept, all
maintenance in these neighborhoods beyond the building line is the responsibility of the
homeowners association.
Several boulders have been placed in a circular arrangement. The area within this circle
will be planted with a flowering ground cover. Five flowering dogwood trees and five red
maples will be planted randomly between the boulders and gazebo. Ten azalea bushes
27
WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
will be planted on each side of the stone steps to be place from Jenny Lane to the
gazebo and six butterfly bushes will be planted around the gazebo. A monument-style
sign identifying Richard's Wood with landscaping surrounding it shall be installed at the
intersection of Wolf Run and Jenny Lane(at the 2301 Jenny Lane lot).
Boulders will be used aesthetically throughout the property, or will be removed from the
property.
HARDSCAPEPALETTE
Fences in the Deck home, Single-family neighborhoods and the Meadow may be
compatible with Blue Ridge Parkway Design Guidelines. Fences in the village, when out-
of-view of the Parkway, will be more detailed, inspired by more local precedent (pickets).
Railings may be made of wood or dark color steel.
Walls may be constructed of brick, decorative concrete block, or field stone and mortar
or dry-laid. The field stone may set in an uncoursed roughly squared pattern as below.
3 Board Fence for Village
Right: Picket Fence for Village
Below: Meadow Fences; spiked rail
and fieldstone wall
28
WOLF CREEK MASTERPLAN & DESIGN GUIDELINES
Signage
Wolf Creek development signs shall be of the monument type, those with their base
on the ground. The entrance demarcation will be incorporated into a wall. Signs shall
include no more than three colors, and one of the colors will be from the palette of
Blue Ridge Parkway signage colors.
Trail signage
Shingle signs shall be made of wood and shall be left a natural color or can be
painted with approved paint colors. They shall measure a maximum of 2'x 4'.
Should the use of bridges be required,
they will be modeled on Blue Ridge
Parkway precedent, for both vehicular
and pedestrian bridges. Below is a
concept study for a vehicular bridge over
a creek, using a large precast culvert as
the interior structure, and arched
wingwalls typical on Blue Ridge Parkway 1_
bridges. The uncoursed, roughly-squared
pattern of masonry will be used.
PLANT PALETTE
This plant palette is meant as a general guideline for the entire planned community. It
consists of native plants to the Blue Ridge, with a few introduced species that have been
in our region for centuries. Individual site variations occur that make some of these
plants better candidates for selection. It is recommended that a Landscape Architect or
Horticulturist be consulted to draw detailed planting designs.
