I. Introduction and Project History
Old Trail Village was originally approved as a Neighborhood Model
Zoning District by the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors as ZMA
2004-024, on 1cp',erii1uc1- 12, 2005, ZMA 2004-024 included a Code of"
Development prepared by Timmons Group dated September 12, 2005, a
proffer statement dated September 14, 2005, and a General Development
Plan prepared by Timmons Group containing 9 sheets and dated last
revised September 12, 2005. Old Trail Village was subsequently
amended by ZMA 2008-05 on November 12, 2008, which allowed for an
amendment to Table 4 of the Code of Development to permit rest homes,
nursing homes, convalescent and similar homes, and assisted living
facilities. ZMA 2008-05 also included revised proffers dated October 23,
2008, A senior living and assisted living facility was subsequently
constructed in Block 2, as permitted by ZMA 2008-05. Old Trail Village
was further amended by ZMA 2014-00004, approved on March 11, 2015,
which allowed for Carriage House units in certain blocks_ The most
and- revisCd proffers.
In addition, a number of variations to the Code of Development have
been approved since 2005, pursuant with Section 8.5.5.3 of the Zoning
Ordinance.
In 2009, Section 20A of the Zoning Ordinance, which regulates
Neighborhood Model Zoning Districts such as Old Trail Village, was
amended such that the term "General Development Plan" is no longer
applicable. Pursuant to the definition of "Application Plan" in Section 3
of the Zoning Ordinance, "a plan designated and approved as a general
development plan for a neighborhood model district between March 19,
2003 and October 14, 2009 is an application plan for purposes of this
Chapter." With ZMA 2015-00001, we the approved
General Development Plan prepared by Timmons Group. As such, the
General Development Plan prepared by Timmons Group, and revised by
Roudabush, Gale and Associates with a last revision date of January 14,
2015, and approved as a part of ZMA 2015-00001, is now deemed to be
the Application Plan for all blocks other than RlQck 1g and is referenced
as such throughout this Code of Development Amendment. This ZJZA_

II. CODE OF DEVELOPMENT
This Code of Development Amendment (hereinafter, this `Code of
Development" or this "Codel establishes the design guidelines and
specific regulations for the development of Old Trail Village and shall
replace the original Code of Development in all respects for the following
tax map parcels: 055BO-01-00-000A1 (excluding those portions that lie
outside the zoning boundary for ZMA 2004-024), 055EO-01-00-00OA2,

These parcels represent the unsold, undeveloped portions of the original
rezoning boundary approved with ZMA 2004-024.
These tax map parcels include the following blocks: portion of 3, 5, 6, 7,
10, 12 Phase 3, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, portion of 27, 30,
portion of 31 (exclude 31A), 32, 33, 34, and the unsold lots in Block 35,
specifically Block 35B. Below is a map depicting the areas this Code
shall regulate. Refer to Sheet 2 of the Application Plan -approved with
ZMA 201 ';-QQ001 for a larger version of the following map.
. . "Akm�..
Application Plan
Old Trail Village differs from other more conventional suburban
developments, in that it seeks to create an entire village with
opportunities for its inhabitants to live, work, conduct business, shop
and recreate. The applicant understands that the development of a
healthy, thriving town cannot be forced; instead it must be allowed to
naturally conform to meet the needs of its ever -changing population. As
economic, political and cultural climates change, OId Trail Village will
respond with appropriate evolution within the context of the Code of
Development.
The Application Plan shows the potential development of individual lots,
buildings and parking, however these elements of the Application Plan
are illustrative only. Specific development of lots, including the locations
and dimensions of buildings, parking, sidewalks, and street trees shall
be determined on an individual basis at the time of subdivision plat and
site plan submittal and approval for each block. The general parameters
for the development of each block are contained within the Code of
Development for use as a guideline, but are not intended as specific
regulatory criteria. These general parameters will ensure the goals of Old
Trail Village are realized, while allowing flexibility for the community to
evolve as needed when markets and demands change.
To facilitate this natural process, the Application Plan provides the
framework for Old Trail Village through diagrammatic layouts of streets,
sidewalks, landscape material, open space configuration, and variations
in architectural products/placement, while incorporating the flexibility
necessary to adapt to changing needs. The alignments of streets, utilities
and sidewalks shall generally conform to the layout provided on the
Application Plan, though it is not the intent of the Application Plan to
dictate specific street geometrics. Minor variations to the Application
Plan shall be permitted under Albemarle Code Section 8.5.5.3.
Preliminary grading and stormwater management plans are also provided
and minor variations in the direction of flow, location of treatment
facilities and acceptable ranges in types of treatment facilities are
permitted provided they are in conformance with applicable State and
County regulations.
Overall, between 1,000 and 2,200 residential units will be provided at
Old Trail Village. Fifteen percent (15%) of total residential units will be
constructed as affordable units as detailed in the proffers for Old Trail
Village.
Between 100,000 and 250,000 square feet of combined non-residential,
mixed use development is planned for the development. The commercial
use known as the Lodge at Old Trail shall not count toward the
maximum of 250,000 square feet of non-residential development within
the development. Retail uses shall be phased as specified in the proffers
for Old Trail Village.
Streets
The design of streets shall comply with the Virginia Department of
Transportation ("VDOT'j Standard Street Requirements. For purposes of
this Code, the `Transportation Chart," and the accompanying notes
thereto numbered 1-7 and contained on Sheet 4 of the Application Plan,
is hereby eliminated as it is duplicative of Table 3 below, which has been
revised and included in this Code. Typical alley cross sections are
provided within the Application Plan. Where emergency vehicle access is
required, alleys shall maintain a 20' clear travelway.
Street improvements may be constructed using alternative type roadway
paving materials upon approval by the County Engineer or the Virginia
Department of Transportation, as applicable.

Noies: a. Parking snail be provided on both sides of the street for most public roads
being constructed after approval of this amended Code unless driveway location,
housing product, or other similar factors restrict our ability to do so.
2. The Developer reserves the right but not the obligation to build Road T as an
approved public or private road. If this road is constructed, the developer reserves the
right to impact the stream buffer as shown on Sheet 3 of the Application Plan. If an
emergency secondary accessway is required, and no alternative location for such
accessway is reasonably available, the developer reserves the right to use this corridor
for the emergency accessway. Such emergency accessway shall not be required to be
built to public or private road standards.
Amenity -oriented Iots
Amenity -oriented lots
Notwithstanding Section 4.6.1 and 4.6.2 of the County zoning ordinance,
attached and detached residential units with the front of the unit facing
a grass mall, park, open space, or any other similar amenity area
(collectively, Amenity's are permitted throughout the development,
provided that the Amenity must be at least thirty feet (301 in width, and
an open area, from face of building to face of building must remain at
fifty feet (501 in width. In addition, said lots shall be served by a private
street. The applicant has requested a waiver of the street standards for
roads serving amenity -oriented lots.
Sidewalks
To accommodate bicycle travel, wider sidewalks will be provided as
described below:
"A street" adjacent to blocks 1, 2, 10 and 30 and blocks 4, 13, 16

8 foot sidewalk to replace the 5 foot sidewalk shown on the
approved Golf Access Road plans.
Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, sidewalks shall be a
minimum of five feet, provided that sidewalks adjacent to non-residential
uses shall be twelve feet, which can include landscaping, so long as a five
foot wide clear travclway is maintained for pedestrians.
Parking
Specific parking arrangements shall be designed at the site plan phase of
individual blocks. All parking throughout the Project shall be provided in
accordance with Section 18.4.12 of the Albemarle County Code.
In block 1 and block 6 when non-residential uses are proposed, the
Owner shall relegate off-street parking to the rear and side of buildings,
and/or such parking shall be screened by buildings, landscaping,
permanent structures or other acceptable measures. For purposes of
relegated parking in BIock 1 and 6, Old Trail Drive shall be considered

Notes:
1. Even though the sum of the maximum units developable for each block exceeds
2200 and the sum of the maximum non-residential and mixed use square footage for
each block exceeds 250,000, the developer shall be limited to an overall range of units
between 1,000 and 2,200 and an overall range of non-residential and mixed use 18
square footage between 100,000 and 250,000 for the entire development. The
commercial use known as the Lodge at Old Trail shall not count toward the maximum
of 250,000 square feet of non-residential development within the development but will
count in the allowable residential units as established above.
2. The non-residential minimum/maximum limitations are based on the building's
gross leasable area in square feet.
3. Retail uses shall be phased as specified in the proffers for Old Trail Village,
4. The overall size of the primary building footprint in blocks-P9-, 24 & 25 shall not

Signage
Old Trail Village shall be allowed 2 signs at Route 250, both a
subdivision and freestanding commercial sign.
Entrance Corridor Protection
Albemarle County's goal is to preserve the rural character of Crozet.
Therefore regulations have been established which are intended to
protect the existing viewsheds along the designated Route 250 Entrance
Corridor adjacent to Old Trail Village.
The Route 250 Entrance Corridor buffer, as defined by the 150 ft. deep
existing woodland, shall be retained as existing forest. Adjacent to Route
250, trees within existing forested areas shall be preserved and
maintained at a minimum depth of one hundred -fifty (150) feet from the
edge of right-of-way. Adjacent to Route 250 in areas which are currently
unforested, a twenty (20) foot deep hedgerow shall be planted and
maintained.
In addition to regulations specified within the Code of Development, the
following additional regulations shall be imposed on any df-,velopmg:nt
blocks 19, 24 and 25
siabject to review by the Arebitertur@1 ReviLW Board:
1. Buildable pads for single family housing should be carefully
planned to respect the contour of the land designed to best fit the
existing land forms. Building color and finishes being earth tone to
blend into the natural vegetation. Use of incremental terracing of
mass building pads and streets are preferred with multiple terraces
rather than expansive single story on one level; landscaped grade
differential should be accommodated within building and between
the pads; rear -draining lots may be allowed with capture provided
in the stormwater management plan. Where cut -and -fill slopes are
used, they should be sculpted to blend with the adjacent terrain.
2. Retaining walls visible from Route 250 shall be limited to an
exposed height of six (6) ft.
3. Flat roofs are not permitted on any building, unless mechanical
equipment is contained within the building envelope.
4. Accessory equipment and structures, which shall only include
loading areas, service areas, refuse areas, mechanical equipment,
above -ground utilities, security fencing devices and other
commercial related accessory equipment and structures, and shall
not include residential accessory equipment and structures such
as fences, sheds, etc., shall be integrated into the site plan by
utilizing buildings or changes in grade for screening. Planting
shall not be an acceptable solution for poorly sited equipment or
25

structures. Views of accessory structures and equipment shall be
eliminated from the Entrance Corridor.
Henley Middle School Buffer
Adjacent to Henley Middle School, existing trees shall be preserved and
maintained at a minimum depth of twenty (20) feet.
Guidelines for Tree Preservation
Preservation measures shall be administered to trees within wooded
areas to be maintained within the conservation/ preservation areas
delineated in the Application PIan, with particular preservation effort
directed toward trees with trunk diameters greater than 18 inches at
breast height. Wooded areas to remain shall be fenced off from
construction activity with portable chain link fencing no closer than five
(5) feet to the trunk. Silt fencing shall be utilized at stream buffers.
During the course of final grading, if it becomes necessary to fill within
the canopy limits of existing trees, such fills shall not exceed depths
greater than six (6) inches to ensure continued saturation of the existing
root mat. Prior to grading around the trees, all vegetation shall be
stripped from the fill areas and fertilizer shall be applied. Should it
became necessary to cut within the canopy limits, all disturbed roots
shall be protected from exposure to the air. The crown Ieaf surface shall
be proportionately reduced to balance the reduced root system. The
trees shall be fertilized upon completion of grading activities in the area.
Any damaged portions of trees within wooded areas to be maintained
shall be immediately addressed to promote expedient recovery.
III. ARCHITECTURAL AND LANDSCAPE
STANDARDS
Introduction and Intent
A variety of architectural styles and product types currently exist at Old
Trail Village. Future development will be in general accord with the
current architecture and landscape precedent. The following general
guidelines intend to reflect this precedent and implement the
development principles outlined in the Neighborhood Model.
Summary of Architectural Districts
For purposes of defining architectural and landscape standards, three
districts have been established at Old Trail Village. The following is .+
description of each district:

dunuary-F4�B��];$®�T Decemher l! 2019
(Blocks 1-7)
With appropriate architectural and street scale in place, the center
district allows a wide range of uses including side -by -side integration of
residential, office and retail uses. Valuable civic spaces are created
through variations to building facades, creating plazas and other
meaningful spaces for those who work, shop and/ or live in the center
district.
Proper proportions, both for the buildings and the relationship of the
street to those buildings, permits the district to have such use variation
and to successfully integrate the range of uses planned for this district.

��._iri�-N�.,-s�
(Blocks 10-18, 20-23, 26-29 & 32)
A variety of residential uses, integrated building to building, defines the
character of the General District. As in the Center District, architectural
attention is the key in making this integration work. Proper apartment
and townhome details give the multifamily units the `right" to stand next
to stately manor homes.
Open spaces such as commons and pocket parks help relieve any sense
of density that the units might create by giving them a public space
outlet for outdoor enjoyment.
Street trees and properly designed sidewalks provide a built-in linear
pa

stem that connects to the adjacent districts.
(Blocks 19, 24, 25, 30, 31, 33-35)
almost exclusively of single family residential uses, cluster cottages and
attached medium density ViIla's along the trails, the Edge District
provides a meaningful transition from the higher densities of the Village
center to the surrounding rural land and adjacent properties. Homes

with dramatic views of woods, mountains, or the Old Trail Golf Course
maintain a walkable distance to the village core.
Architectural Standards
In general, the architectural standards of Old Trail Village will provide a
sense of place born out of a
street and architectural design
that is unified, pedestrian in
:kale and sympathetic to the
a-egional context. General design
standards outlined below shall
apply throughout the plan area:
i . Entry features that pronounce
he building's front fagade to help
Iderrtifythe building's predominant
front using such features as (but
not limited to) colonnades,
arcades, porches, stoops and
courtyards.
2, Exterior wall and roofing
materials preferences at this time
ppII include wood, masonry board
such as hardiplank or panel,
brick, stucco or stone for walls,
} architectural asphalt -shingles or
painted tern metal for pitched
roofs.
3. Archit: lure shall be in scale and compatible with adjacent styles and
themes. '1-1!e ultimate goal is to orient and scale buildings for the
pedestrian at street level in
Iorder to create an inviting,
enlivened streetscape.
4. Streets have sidewalks and
street trees in planters or
planting strips depending
upon their location. In the
more urban context, a
1 sidewalk can be integrated into
a plaza or urban street
character with outdoor seating
and landscaping. As much as
possible, in accordance with
28
VDOT regulations, on -street parking is allowed.
5. Species of trees, shrubs, grasses and other vegetation shall be
representative of indigenous species of existing plant communities in the
area.
