As you know Tros-Dale is very anxious to start a second home, located a short distance from the present house. Our present house has always been fortunate during its entire existence to have youngsters who are perfectly normal, well-behaved, good citizens, who were always accepted by the community. You can be assured that the same type of boy will be accepted into the new home and receive the very best of care and supervision from the director. Most sincerely, • 41- 4+, A. Hamilton Bishop, III Headmaster AHB/dwm "'tier rnr' 115 Carrsbrook Court Charlottesville, Virginia January 12, 1976 Zoning Board of Appeals Albemarle County County Office Building Charlottesville, Virginia Dear Sirs: I am a member of the Board of Directors of the Trosdale Home for Boys. The boys of this home are at Trosdale because of their own broken homes and not because of delinquency or any difficulties they may have gotten into running afoul of the law. Someof the Trosdale boys return to their homes when their families have reunited. Otherwise , for the most part they remain at Trosdale until after graduation from high school. Some of the boys even further their education beyond the secondary school level. Following this, most return for occasional visits to the home. This is certainly indicative of the love and care they have received from the Executive Director and his wife, Rev. and Mrs. Peter T. Way. The Board of Directors of Trosdale would like for more boys from broken homes to experience a home like enviornment like this one. We have therefore decided to provide tFs experience by building a home so that more boys can have this secure feeling of being loved, wanted and needed. I am enclosing for your review some material pertaining to Trosdale so that you may get a brief overview of services rendered by this great organization. In conjunction with this, I appeal to you to approve the proposed site near Warren, Virginia for the location of this house . By complying with my request you will be doing a great service to the County of Albemare and the Commonwealth of Virginia. We look forward to your decision i e very ne uture. Sincerely yours onald W. Jo Board Member Trosdale Home for Boys cos Mr. Farley Cox Rev. Peter T. Way ,.ww January 7, 1976 To Whom It May Concern: I live in the same neighborhood as the Tros-Dale Home For Boys near Keene and have found the Home to be a satisfactory and good neighbor.

While I am not directly involved in this appeal , I thought it might be helpful to the membership of the Board to know that I own all of the adjacent land to the present Trosdale Home , near Keene . These homes serve a very great need and must be considered a worthy cause . The proof lies in the fact that we have had no untoward events on our property nor do I know of any complaints against the boys , and , if I may be presumptuous enough , I would suggest that the Board give every consideration to this application . Hoping that we may continue to help such children as these and that you will look with favor upon same , I am 411111&spectfull yo , 1120 ri Daniel G .

The basic concept, as set forth in the attached brochure, is to keep our operation small and home-like, with no more than eight boys, for whom we provide not merely a home but love, affection and spiritual and educational guidance. The only way we can expand and help more boys, without destroy- ing the present home atmosphere, is to start another unit with a couple in residence, under the supervision of The Rev. Peter T. Way, Director and Founder of the present Home. We have been offered a two-acre tract located in Southern Albemarle in an area zoned A-1 (situated between "Hatton Grange" and "Donegal" , with three or four single family dwellings in the same area) . We propose to construct a single family dwelling, with occupancy limited to six boys, plus the couple in charge. It is our contention that this will constitute a family unit no different from others in the area, with parents and children who will become part of the community, attending the local schools, churches and other activities , and that it conforms in all respects to the spirit of the Zoning Law, even though owned and operated by Tros-Dale Home for Boys, a chari- table, non-commercial organization. The Zoning Administration has denied our request on a strict interpretation of the law, although expressing sympathy with our aims.

J. Boatwright. This land is located in an area zoned A-1, between "Hatton Grange" and "Donegal" in Southern Albemarle County, which presently contains three or four one-family dwellings. Tros-Dale intends this dwelling to house no more than six boys, with a couple in residence to care for them, under the supervision of the Rev. Peter T. Way, Director of the present Home. The entire concept of this operation is to create a family home for boys whose own home conditions are unsatisfactory. The couple in charge and the boys will com- prise a family which will be an integral part of the community, and will in every respect be like any other family, with parents and children, the only difference being that the home will be owned by the Tros-Dale Corporation. We feel very strongly that this constitutes a single family dwelling in conformance with the spirit of the Zoning Law (Remember - ''The Letter Killeth") and trust you will agree, in order that we may help more of those who are in need.
