Memorandum

From: Paty Saternye, Senior Planner
Division: Planning
Date: May 21, 2019
Subject: ZMA201600015 Oakleigh Variation #1
Fax 434-972-4126
A variation request for Oakleigh (ZMA 16-15) were submitted April 15, 2019 (dated April 12, 2019) and then
revised on May 7, 2019. We have identified changes that need to be made to the request for the variation that
will be necessary for our recommendation of approval of these requests to the Board of Supervisors.
Variation # 1 - Request to modify the Road Standards Table.
1. Planning staff is unable to support this variation request as it has been presented. Address the following
comments and then resubmit the variation request for review.
2. Submit a revised application that has the signatures of both owners of parcels within Oakleigh, Oakleigh
Albemarle LLC & The Blake at Charlottesville LLC. If the owner wishes to have an agent sign for them,
provide a letter signed by the owner stating who has the right to sign the application.
3. Remove any mention of the second special exception request in reference to signage. That request will be
processed separately. Please contact Rebecca Ragsdale for any questions in reference to that second
special exception.
4. The changes that were made to the chart and notes in SDP2017-60 were not approved by the Board of
Supervisors (BOS) as a variation. Therefore, in this variation request any changes to those table and notes
must be requested, reviewed and approved by the BOS prior to the site plan approval. Therefore, ensure all
proposed and requested changes use the approved Code of Development (C.O.D.) version of the chart and
notes as their basis not the last site plan. Staff has provided in the attached spreadsheet the "Yard
Requirements by Block" table from the C.O.D. for your reference.
5. Revise the request to address all change to the "Yard Requirements by Block" table in the C.O.D. and the
notes below it. See the attached spreadsheet that shows both the approved C.O.D. table and notes and
then the "Changes" version to both the chart and the notes.
6. The "Changes" version of the chart and notes that are attached address your requests and concerns raised
with the previous site plan approval. Please note the following changes from what you submitted in your
initial request:
a) The chart is in the same order as in the C.O.D. to avoid confusion in comparison.
b) The highlighting, color coding and "legend" are only for reference in this discussion and should not be
included in any submitted request.
c) The yellow highlighting shown where notes 3 and 4, through the use of superscript numbers, only
applied to the "Side Building Setback" and "Side Parking Setback" in the C.O.D. In the "Changes
version you will see how Note #3 no longer applies to just the Block 1 & Block 2 "Side Building
Setback". This addressed the 75' front setback issue in Block III, since Note #3 becomes applicable to
all Blocks.
d) Note #3 is revised to make its intent clear, by the addition of the words in green.
e) Note #4 still only applies to Blocks I & II "Side Parking Setback".
f) Highlighted in orange are changes specified in the first submission of the special exception request that
staff can support without modification.
g) Highlighted in blue are changes specified in the first submission of the special exception request that
staff was not able to support without modification. Those items have been left as they were specified in
the C.O.D. However, superscript numbers have been added to them, and a note added, to address the
specific circumstances in Blocks IV and V that was requested in the first submission without having
those changes apply to all Blocks and property lines within Oakleigh.
7. A condition of approval will be required. It will state "The modification to the design and layout to protect the
proffered preserved trees, as specified by the project arborist in their letter on 3/29/2019, are required
unless alternative methods that meet or exceed those specified by the project arborist are approved by the
Director of Planning."
8. Please note that all other requirements of the C.O.D. and zoning ordinance must be met.
a) The minimum "Block Green Space and Amenities" specified in the chart on Sheet 4 of the Application
Plan must be met.
b) Any required screening of the parking and vehicular circulation areas will still be required. Considering
the greatly decreased distance between the curb of the parking and circulation area, and the adjoining
lot line, vegetative screening no longer appears to be feasible and an alternative screening method
would need to be applied.
An updated Code of Development and Application Plan reflecting the variation approved will be required
prior to Final Plat approval if the variation is approved by the Board of Supervisors.
