We understand that the idea of "41)" children right next to your private backyard space is causing you much worry and frustration. I hope that I can shed at least the start of some light on that through this message, and I do hops that we can meet in person before too long to create a positive working relationship to ensure that we do not cause a major disruption to your life, As you Know, the county has required a -fence to be placed around -the chifdren's play area in prder-far the preschool to continue towards our special use permit. The church`s Buildings and grounds committee has already net to discuss the beginning details of this process, and we were hoping to work with you to decide on the details of the fence that will backup to your property. Elaine has communicated the concerti about the property tine, and I'm sure there are more details that we will come across to make the set up work for aft: of us. l am not in a position to be able to make .specific promises on behalf of the c.hurch`s property, but l will let you know that If extra .workk or financial costs to the play area are decided on by all, parties,.! am more than. witting to make that sacrifice: In terms of any further structures that may go up, we would work in the apposite direction of your yard (in a perpendicular direction away from where your yard is located!. Additionally, there will never be 40 children outside atone time. The maximum amount of children present at the school atone time will be 25, and the way we are planning to structure Lite day, theV I pend outdoor time in smaller groups. These numbers are not what we anticipate or even hope for as we open the school. I truly want you to understand that 1 want to be a great neighbor to you and the others around the church property. I would be glad to meet you in person whenever you are in town and available. 1 am heading vut for family vacation this evening, but if you happen to be around today 1 could make time before we go. Otherwise. I could meet with you when we return. I'd also love for you to meet the other teachers that will be working with me. They are very nice ladies, and are also a part of our mission to provide a nurturing preschool experience that works in sync with the neighborhood. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns at 440-781-0981 or by email. !look forward to speaking with you soon. Sincerely, Christi Gillette f HeNo Christi, We very much appreciate your efforts to reach out to us and to address our concerns. We do wish that we could have been made aware of these plans months ago, when they were developing and we were still in Crozet next door neighbor, whose backyard is immediately adjacent to the playground, we do have serious reservationhe about this plan and we would have thought that, as neighbors, someone would have reached out to us b no s But the church has not communicated with us to date, and we are now on extended business and vacation travel in the Western US (we will not return to Crozet until late September), and therefore cannot be there to represent ourselves in person, p t It is important to communicate that we have long been supporters of many educational opportunities within the Crozet area, and we are supportive of what you're trying to do for pre-school education. We raised our own child on St. George Avenue, and in the local school system. Unfortunately, you have chosen the wrong place to locate the Discovery School. We have communicated to Elaine Echols our three primary concerns: -� The greatly increased traffic WILL create a hazardous situation for children, pets, and other residents of our neighborhood (already, we have repeatedly had to post "Drive Like Your Kids Live Here" signs and have requested installation of speed bumps to slow traffic; the increased traffic associated with the pre. school will exacerbate this problem). The corner of St. George Ave. and Crozet Avenue (Rte. 810) is also a traffic hazard, with many local children riding bikes and walking to school. The creation of a new, highly visible and audible commercial business is clearly not in keeping with the National Historic District designation of the St. George neighborhood. • Lastly but undeniably, this pre-school will adversely impact our property and our quality of life. The playground is located 10 ft. from our property line. (We did not approve of the playground's location when it was built,) Fortunately, it has to date been used only on Sundays and by a few neighborhood children. We live in our backyard --gardening, reading, birdwatching. The noise from the preschool would be considerable, even if it is only 10 children out there at a time, all day long. The backyard is also open — no fencing — and we have kept it that way for 16 years. (We have an in -ground dog fence.) We do not like the idea of a fence right on our property line. We do not believe that these concerns can be mitigated to a satisfactory degree. Any fence constructed around the playground area would be•ineffective in abating noise from the playground, and it's very hard to imagine that it could be constructed in a visibly unobtrusive way, given the very close proximity of the playground to our property line. The increased traffic associated with the pre-school will exacerbate congestion and speeding problems that already exist. We sincerely hope that you can find a suitable alternative location for the Discovery School. Brian Richter &Martha Hodgkins Dear Brian and Martha, Thank you for your recent response to Christi Gillette's email regarding the Little Explorers Discovery School. As you can imagine we are truly excited about the possibility of hosting this much needed service for families in the Crozet area. We are committed to helping Christi create a friendly and safe space for children to learn and grove. This includes identifying challenges to the success of the school, and working with our Crozet neighbors to find a solution for each. We are glad to consult with the two of you about safeguarding your property and your sense of Privacy in our beautiful neighborhood. We were particularly saddened to hear that you had previous concerns that you felt were not heard. We are always willing to listen to and work with our neighbors to'find a tnutualty satisfying conclusion to problems that arise. In this instance, we would love to chat with you further about building a :privacy screen atong our shared property boundary that will help to insure a peaceful space for you as children p.lay,on our playground. Please let us know . your thoughts about such a fence. looking forward to working with you on this project, David Gollyer Hello David, Apologies for our slow reply. As we explained to Christi and in our letters related to this issue, we are traveling and camping in remote areas of the West without internet connectivity much of the time. We are not planning to return to Crozet until late September. We do wish that you had reached out to us months ago, when you first began discussions w th Christi on this proposal. if that would have happened, we could be having this conversation in person instead of by email. More importantly, we could be having this discussion as neighbors rather than having to air our objections in public. Any reasonable resolution of this issue will necessarily require a relocation of the playground to create a respectful distance from our property line, The original placement of the playground, sited right up against our property line and built in 2010 without any conversation with us, was, frankly, offensive. At the same time, during playground construction the church took down and burned our son's tree fort ladder while we were away in Italy. Yes, we have concerns with the church's lack of respect toward us as neighbors. We are nat interested in Co large privacy fence. taut wee do understand that if qou are successful in the SUP application, there will necessarily need to be fencing for the safety of the children. Tall, ugly fencing is NOT what we would like nor will we accept. We would have to discuss other.fencing, like picket, that would be built on your side of the property line.. if you are willing to entertain the relocation of the playground, we can continue this conversa#ion., Otherwise, we will continue to oppose the application for a Special Use Permit: We, more than any other neighbors, have the most at stake here, and the most to lose. However, to be clear: the relocation A the playground does not resolve the additional concerns that we and our neighbors have for the traffic congestion the pre-school will cause, and impacts to the character of our National Historic District neighborhood's character.

We're looking forward to further consultation as this project takes shape. We had a productive meeting of our Buildings and Grounds Committee last night. We continued to refine our vision for the safety fence that will enclose the playground equipment and provide a play area for preschoolers. Our plan is to proceed wifh a survey of our southern and western property lines, and then call the fence company for an updated estimate. We are stiil planning on the fence as you described it in your email, and we will certainly !et you know of any changes fo our thinking. The committee is excited about working with you on the proposed plant screen. One of our committee members, who is an architect, is preparing a drawing that can form the basis for our discussion. The drawing will include the property fines, sigrnficant trees, current vegetation, the proposed fence line, and some ideas about screening plants. We'll get you a copy as soon as she finishes. We look forward to hearing your suggestions. The church plans to bear the cost for the new plantings and any maintenance of existing trees and shrubs on our side of the property I�ne. Weft be exploring the poss�bil►ty of trimming the existing boxwood hedge. Unfortunately, our plant experts have doubts about a successful transplant of the two boxwoods in your back yard. With well -established root systems that would not be adequately included m atree-spade move, and damage that might occur while maneuvering the spade between the plants, they hold out I�ttle hope for survival. Consequently we feel that we should move in another direction. We hope to complete the safety fence before January. As we discussed, we'll be planting the vegetative screen as quick) as we deade on the best varieties, and taking into account seasonal planting times. Please continue to let us know what you're think►ng. We'll be in touch soon. y David From: Brian F2ichter <bnan�susta�nablewaters.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 6, 2098 8:46 AM To: David Collyer <dav�d�crozetchurch.org> 11 Gmail - RE: our meeting on the fence and vegetative screening httpsa/mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ik=1 e8ba78eG28:view=pt�.se Cc: Martha Hodgkins <martha.hodgkins@gmail.com>; Linette Burton <9alalune�gmail.com> Subject: our meeting on the fence and vegetative screening Dear David and Tracy, Thanks for taking the time to meet with us yesterday. It was fortunate that we were able to talk before your grounds committee meeting, which you said is taking place tonight, 11/6. We were a tittle surprised to hear how far down the road you all had gotten in terms of making decisions about the fence, both materials and layout, given that the BOS and planning commission have both conditioned the granting of the special use permit on consultation with us about the fence and vegetative screen. But after learning what the church has decided in terms of the fence, we are not going to object further, given that you do follow through on the things we discussed. To recap, and to confirm our mutual understanding: * The fence material will be the powdered black metal design that you showed us, approximately 4' high. The fence will run from the side of the parish building across your yard perpendicular to our property (west), then forma 90-degree corner behind the last large boxwood that currently demarcates our two properties (approximately 5' feet off the property line), and then run parallel to our yard (north) to the far back line of your property. If you change your mind about the use of the fence material, or the placement of the fence, you will consult with us before making further decisions. Since the fence offers no privacy given the wide spacing of the metal pickets, the church will plant a vegetative screen of mature shrubs (approximately 3 - 4 feet high, ail with potential for rapid growth, such as glossy abelia) that we have mutually agreed upon. As we discussed, we will consult with a neighbor landscaping friend on some types of shrubs that we would make an appropriate screen, then get back to you with a list for further discussion. We will also investigate the possibility of moving the two large boxwoods out of the center of our yard to help form the fence screen. Costs associated with the planting of this vegetative screen, including the moving of the two boxwoods, will be borne by the church. We would like to see mulch applied to all disturbed areas, such as beneath the planted shrubs; however, we do not want any disturbance to the existing dayliiy bed. '" Timeframe: you intend to build this fence by early January 2019. The shrubs will need to be planted beginning in March 2019, or as the species' needs dictate. (might be staggered planting and moving). If was lucky that we requested the meeting before your grounds committee meets. Thanks again for talking to us in person. Please let us know immediately if this is not your understanding. All the best, Martha, Brian and Linette, your St. George neighbors 12/1thn�Q Gmail - RE: our meeting on the fence and vegetative screening hops://mail.google.com/mail/u /O'?ik= l e8ba78e62&view=pt&rsearc,,, waters Brian Richter, President 5834 St George Avenue.

(BTVV, I just noticed my friend Nancy Nerem is on the grounds committee, and on this email. Hello, Nancy!) Brian told me Sunday night, however, that you and others from your grounds committee had hailed him in our backyard that afternoon to talk about changes that you would now like to make: principally, moving the fence closer to our shared property line. As you know, the property line runs right through the black oak adjacent to the playground. I am unsure how dose you are proposing coming to our backyard, but any closer would put the fence right on the black oak, in the boxwoods and through the established daylily bed, which you agreed not to disturb. If you are concerned about increasing the space around your playground area, perhaps you should move the black bumper berm around the playground a few feet? Brian reported that because you want to move the fence closer to our yard, that you are considering erecting a wood picket fence (rather than the metal one) and not plant any large shrubs. Please clarify if that is what you are proposing, because you had previously expressed concern with both the expense and the ongoing maintenance of a wood fence. if in fact you are asking us to switch to this option, we would like to see something built like the one in the image below; we had originally proposed this style to you. It could be unpainted. We would still need to discuss placement of the fence, however. David, we want to work with you on this project in a respectful, neighborly way. We called the meeting with you on November 6 to initiate the conversation. As Linette and 1 were not present Sunday afternoon to hear the changes you want to make, we would like to get together soon to discuss. I think from here on out, it would be best to put any proposed changes or developments in writing before talking, so as to avoid misunderstanding.

We were fortunate to be able to discuss a few things with Brian, most importantly that the committee feels that the fence should be on the property line. We have come to see the fence less as solely an enclosure for the Preschool and looked more towards what the church needs are now and in the future. The establishment of the fence on the property line seems to be the prudent way to go. We will be fencing not only the border with your property, but all the way along the back line of the property with the four neighbors in that direction. This location being decided, we approached the fence company about the large tree on the property line and they assured us that this happens all the time and they have a way to keep the fence posts space off of the tree and the create a more custom section that would meet the sides of the tree. If the tree ever needed to be taken down, a fence section could be added. We also approached the fence contractor about the design you have proposed and feel confident that we can do this design for the boundary with your property. We can leave the fence unpainted, but have also looked to see if staining it would be an option for a better looking fence with longevity. As far as the plantings go, we are still planning on screening the playground on our side of the fence and are open to discussing plant selectionsloptionstyith you.
