Please be prepared to submit the revised initial site development plan for ARB review contemporaneously with your resubmission of the SDP;this will ensure a process in tangent.

From: Heather McMahon <hmcmahon@albemarle.org> Date: Monday, October 22, 2018 at 3:18 PM To: Christopher Perez<cperez@albemarle.org>, "Michele "Shelly" Wright" <michelew@ldreeves.com> 1 l- Cc: Margaret Maliszewski <MMaliszewski@albemarle.org>, David Benish <DBENISH@albemarle.org> Subject: RE:SRC 10/18'SDP201800066 Longhorn Steakhouse- Initial Site Plan Albemarle CO/Charlottesville Hi Michele and Chris, I am returned today from family medical leave, and can answer your last question: The ARB's recommendation to the site agent made at the October 15, 2018 meeting included 28 recommended changes for the final site plan; no request or requirement was made to see a revised initial site plan, and as one of several reviewers of the SDP2018-66,ARB staff made no objection to the initial site plan as it stands.So, in short: no,you do not have to bring a revised initial site plan back to the ARB prior to approval unless you are contemplating drastic site layout changes that would greatly affect what the ARB has already seen. If you want to tell me what changes you have in mind, I can better make that call. When you submit a revised initial site plan to Chris, he will, as he wrote in his response,then route copies to various SRC reviewers. I will be one of those reviewers asked to comment. It may behoove the process if you address at least some if not all of the ARB's 28 recommended changes for the final site plan that are listed in the attached action letter, although —again—these are not required until the final site plan is submitted. I hope this has clarified this one question; again, contact me if you believe the changes you are contemplating are potentially significant enough to warrant a second ARB review of the initial site plan, which at this point, is not necessary.

From: Michele Wright<michelew@ldreeves.com> Sent: Monday,October 22, 2018 2:39 PM To:Christopher Perez<cperez@albemarle.org>; Heather McMahon<hmcmahon@albemarle.org> Subject: Re: SRC 10/18_SDP201800066 Longhorn Steakhouse- Initial Site Plan Albemarle CO/Charlottesville Importance: High 2 "Chris: After much contemplation, it has been decided the LongHorn plans will be revised and resubmitted rather than taking the current plans to the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors.Therefore,we request a hold for the. site plan review for permitting. I assume your request for"a hold" is truly a request for a "deferral". If so please clarify. Please confirm,as soon as we revise and resubmit the staff will review for recommending action on the special exception application. Once the revised plans are submitted they will be distributed to appropriate SRC reviewers for a review to ensure there is no additional issues. Once this hurdle has been cleared staff will write the staff report for the special exception. Is there a deadline for submission in order to be placed on a particular agenda? It really depends on when you resubmit and if the revisions adequately address the issue. If they do,this moves quickly and can be placed on a BOS consent agenda. If they do not,we look to the PC schedule. Are we required to go back to the ARB with the revised site plan before we can progress with the special exception meetings? I believe Margaret would need more information to respond to this, specifically what your revision consists of —where specifically the building is being relocated to. She is currently on vacation and shall return on the 29th. Heather is currently out of the office on family emergency leave.So at this point I have no one from ARB staff available to respond to this question. My guess is it depends on what is changing.
