Gallaway Board of Supervisors County of Albemarle 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, VA 22902 Dear Ned: CRUTCHFIEW CORPORATION 1 Crutchfield Park Charlottesville, Virginia 22911-9097 434.817-1000 Fax 434-817-1010 www.crutchfield.com My wife and I live across the street from the very controversial structure being built at 2405 Northfield Road. By now, you have heard the concerns of our Northfields neighbors. Therefore, I do not feel it is necessary to repeat them. However, there is another issue that is not being discussed. For over forty years, I have had a business and homes in the County of Albemarle. Over that time, I have gained a tremendous amount of respect for what you, your predecessors on the Board and your staff have done to make our county one of the best places to live and work. Your new homestay ordinance is an example of that. A tremendous amount of work went into it to ensure that the character of our neighborhoods would be protected from potential abuses of the growing homestay industry. Therefore, when granting exemptions to this new ordinance, extreme care must be taken to prevent the creation of precedence that could have unintended consequences on our citizens' quality of life. Therefore, I strongly believe that if you grant an exemption to the homestay ordinance for The Manors LLC, you would be creating a precedence that opens the door for other corporate entities to build structures specifically designed to be small hotels in any of our residential neighborhoods. Also, it would be creating a precedence of overriding the strong concerns of the residents of those impacted neighborhoods. I know this is not your intent. Thank you for your service to our wonderful community. Best wishes, William G. Crutchfield, Jr. cc: Rebecca Ragsdale February 20, 2020 Beatrice J. S.
