Section 184.12.11 of the Zoning Ordinance which allows for stand alone parking where authorized by the applicable zoning

Section 31.2.4.1 of The Zoning Ordinance requires that special use permits be assessed as follow s:
31.2.4.1: Special Use Permits provided for in this ordinance may be issued upon a finding by the Board of
Supervisors that such use will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property,
The adjacent properties are part of the master plan approved with SP199416. The 1994 special use permit master plan
shows additional offices located on adjacent parcels, w ith all buildings utilizing shared parking. It is understood that future
development of adjacent parcels will utilize and expand existing parking.
that the character of the district will not be changed thereby
The area has a wide mixture of uses, including several similar commercial uses in close proximity to the parcel.
and that such use will be in harmony with the purpose and intent of this ordinance,
The property currently carries a special use permit allowing for the use utilizing existing parking spaces.
with uses permitted byright in the district,
The special use permit application does not propose activity other than that w hich is allowed by the already approved special

DEFER RED FR OM THE DECEMBER 9, 2008 MEETING
Mr. Strucko recused himself from this item since he was employed as the C hief Financial Officer for the UVA
Health Services Foundation which occupies the property that is the subject of this transaction. (See Attached
Statement of Disc losure) He noted that the Commission w ould have to select an Acting C hair due to the absence
of the Vice Chair for this item.
Motion: Ms. Porterfield moved and Ms . J oseph seconded that Mr. Morris act as temporary C hair for this item.
The motion passed by a vote of (6:0).
Mr. Struck o stepped down as Chair at 6:23 p.m.
Mr. Morris, Acting Chair, asked for the staff report.
Ms. Frederick presented a pow er point presentation and s ummarized the staff report. (See Staff Report)
The request is for approv al of existing parking spaces on a lot with no primary use (stand alone park ing).
There is a medical office building currently located on site. The staff report was given at the last meeting
and nothing has changed. The request was deferred at the D ecember 9, 2008 meeting. The proposal is
c onsistent with the original concept for development.
Staff finds that the proposed special use permit meets the requirements of County Ordinances and
recommends approval for stand alone parking in accord with Section 184.12.11.
Ms. Joseph noted that last time the landscaping was in the wrong place.
Ms. Frederick said that approval of the special use permit would abate the current v iolations.
Mr. Morris, Acting Chair, opened the public hearing and invited the applicant to address the Commis sion.
Benton Downer, of Downer R ealty, said that he was one of the managing partners of HighLife LLC and present to
answer any questions. They are in the process of filing some site plan on this project, but due to some economic
issues they hav e not moved forward w ith them. At some point in c reating the subdivision is what created the
violation. When this parcel was originally formed it w as 5.7 acres in parcel. W hen they c losed on the property it is
as they see it today. They were not c ited with the violation until post closing, but he did not remember exactly when
that oc curred.
Mr. Morris invited public comment. There being none, the public hearing was c losed and the matter before the
Planning C ommission.
Ms. Porterfield questioned if in the foreseeable expans ion to the area if they w ill overbuild the existing parking.
Ms. Frederic k replied that they will have to include more parking. Any further development on this property will be
subject to a new site plan approv al in which parking requirements for that proposal will have to be met in order to be
approved.
Motion: Ms. Joseph moved and Ms. Porterfield seconded for approval of SP200800052, Forest Lakes Office Park
for stand alone parking in accord with Section 184.12.11.
The motion passed by a vote of 5:0:1. (Mr. Strucko abstained.)
Mr. Morris said that SP200800052, Forest Lak es Office Park would go before the Board of Supervisors at a date to
be determined with a recommendation for approval.
Mr. Struck o returned to the meeting as Chair at 6:29 p.m.

PLANNING COMMISSION: January 20, 2009
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: February 11, 2009
AGENDA TITLE: SP 08028: BB&T Bank Drive Thru
PROPERTY OWNER: Preston Stallings
APPLICANT: Bill Harris BB&T
PROPOSAL:
Request for special use permit to allow for a drivein window for a bank in accordance with Section 24.2.2 of the Zoning
Ordinance which allows for drivein windows serving or associated with permitted uses within HC [Highway Commercial]
zoning. The property, described as Tax Map 56, Parcel 110 contains 6.189 acres, and is zoned HC, Highway Commercial and
EC, Entrance Corridor. This site lies within the Whitehall Magisterial District and is located on the southern side of Rockfish
Turnpike [State Route 250 West], approximately 1/2 mile east of the intersection with State Routes 240 and 635.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Urban Center [CT 5] in Crozet Community.
CHARACTER OF THE AREA:
The site under review, Outparcel D, is located in the northwest corner of the Blue Ridge Shopping Center [Attachment D].
This shopping center, located across from Radford Lane, adjoins the south side of Route 250 West, and the west side of Blue
Ridge Builder’s Supply. Preliminary grading for the entire shopping center is currently underway. The adjacent properties are
characterized by a mixture of development types including the Clover Lawn commercial buildings, Liberty Hall residential
condominiums/townhomes [under construction], and the Cory Farms single family subdivision.
PLANNING AND ZONING HISTORY:
SDP1996133 Blue Ridge Highway Commercial Area Final Site Plan Approved February 1997.
SDP2002049 Blue Ridge Shopping Center Major Amendment Approved March 2004.
SDP2008001 Blue Ridge Shopping Center Minor Amendment Approved May 2008.
PETITION:
The applicant is requesting approval of a special use permit in accordance with Section 24.2.2.13 of the Zoning Ordinance
[Attachment A], which allows drivein windows serving or associated with the byright uses allowed in the HC zoning
district.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant is proposing a 2,400 square foot, onestory branch bank with a two lane drivethru facility adjoining the west
end of the building [Attachment A]. The outermost [west] lane will provide vehicular access to an ATM machine located on
an island 10’ from the end of the canopy. Other site improvements will include 32 parking spaces to be situated on all 4 sides
of the building and a dumpster pad, with enclosure, adjacent to the southwest corner of Building C, located 65’ south of the
bank building under review.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
Requests for special use permits within the Development Areas are assessed for conformity with the recommendations set
forth in the Land Use Plan. The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Urban Center [CT 5] in Crozet Community.
In addition to being a use that is allowed by right in the HC zoning district, the Crozet Master Plan also recommends retail
service uses in areas designated for Urban Center [CT5] land uses.
Chapter 2 of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled “Natural Resources and Cultural Assets” sets goals for preserving the scenic
resources that are recognized as being essential to the County’s character, economic vitality and quality of life. The Entrance
Corridor Overlay Districts were implemented to further the County’s efforts toward attaining the Comprehensive Plan
objective of maintaining the visual integrity of important roadways. The Architectural Review Board [ARB] addresses the
aesthetic impacts of development on those roads by applying the County’s various design standards for development within
the Entrance Corridor.
Because this site is adjacent to the Route 250 West Entrance Corridor, the ARB has reviewed the site layout and building
design of this proposal for conformity with the County’s adopted design guidelines, and recommends approval of the special
use permit with conditions that are included with the final action on this request [Attachment E].
STAFF COMMENT:
A major site plan amendment [Attachment C] has been submitted for concurrent review with the special use permit.
The Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors do not need to act on the site development plan because it is
subject to administrative review. The site development plan is provided with this special use permit review in order
to review circulation and other impacts that may be generated by the drivethru window.
The issues which typically arise in the review of drivethru windows are:
1. Traffic impacts, including circulation, on and off site;
2. Visibility of the site from the entrance corridor, and
3. Impact from the headlights of stacked vehicles. These issues are addressed in the assessment below.
Section 1831.2.4.1 of the Code of Albemarle requires that Special Use Permits be assessed as follows:
Will the use be of substantial detriment to adjacent property?
The location of the drivethru window will not cause a substantial detriment to adjacent property. The location
and design of the window and travelways are consistent with typical commercial design. The headlights of
stacked vehicles at the drivethru window are directed toward the back of the property.
Will the character of the zoning district change with this use?
Financial institutions are allowed as byright uses in the HC zoning districts and Section 24.2.2.13 of the Zoning
Ordinance allows for drivethru windows serving or associated with the byright uses allowed in the district. The
Architectural Review Board has reviewed the major site plan amendment along with conceptual architectural drawings of
the proposed structures for consistency with the County’s design guidelines for entrance corridors. The ARB has
recommended approval with conditions that are applicable to the approval of this special use permit [Attachment E].
Because the proposed drivethru window supports a by right use, and a favorable recommendation has been given with
respect for the possible aesthetic impacts upon the entrance corridor, it is staff’s opinion that approval of this proposal
would not result in changing the character of the district.
Will the use be in harmony with the purpose and intent of the zoning ordinance?
Staff has reviewed this request as it relates to the “purpose and intent” that is set forth in Sections 1.4.4 and 1.4.7 of the
Zoning Ordinance, and as it relates to the intent specified in the Rural Areas chapter of the Zoning Ordinance (Section
10.1). This request is consistent with both sections.
Will the use be in harmony with the uses permitted by right in the district?
Financial institutions are allowed by right in the HC zoning district. This request to allow a drivethru window is
consistent with the existing financial institutions that have been approved within this zoning district and other similar
districts throughout the County. Therefore, it is staff’s opinion that the proposed drivethru would also be in harmony with
byright uses located within the district.
Will the use comply with the additional regulations provided in Section 5.0 of this ordinance?
Section 5.0 contains no additional regulations regarding drivethru windows.
Will the public health, safety and general welfare of the community be protected if the use is approved?
Section 4.12.6 of the Zoning Ordinance provides standards for the minimum number of required parking spaces for
automated teller machines [ATMs]. These regulations require a minimum of five [5] stacking spaces per each driveup
type. In this case the applicant applied for a reduction in the number of stacking spaces required in accordance with
Section 4.12.2. Per Section 4.12.2 the zoning administrator may modify the number of required parking spaces if finding
that the public health, safety, or welfare would be equally or better served by the modification. The zoning administrator
grated the modification to allow the required number of stacking spaces to be reduced from five [5] to four [4]. Therefore,
it is staff’s opinion that this site could be developed, as planned, in harmony with the regulations that are intended to
promote the public’s health, safety and general welfare.
SUMMARY:
Staff has identified the following factors, which are favorable to this request:
1. The proposed development complies with Zoning Ordinance Section 31.2.4.1: Special Use Permits as indicated in the
assessment above.
2. The Architectural Review Board has recommended approval of the Special Use Permit with conditions.
Unfavorable Factors:
1. None identified.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff has reviewed this proposal for compliance with Section 31.2.4.1 of the Zoning Ordinance consistency with the
Comprehensive Plan and, and recommends approval of the special use permit SP 08028 with the following conditions:
1. Development shall be in general accord with the site plan titled “Grading, Site, and Utility Plan for BB&T”, dated
September 12, 2008.
2. The reduction in the required number of stacking spaces is limited to one [1] space. Further reduction will require an
amendment to the special use permit.

BAC KGROUND:
This public hearing is to consider adoption of an updated Economic Development Policy based on input received from the
Board of Supervisors, the Planning Commission and the community. In November 2007, staff presented updated economic
data to the Board of Superv isors. In February 2008, following consideration of the data, the Board directed the Planning
Commission to w ork with staff on updating the Economic Development Policy to address three key areas: 1) w ork force
development, 2) light industrial land availability, and 3) agricultural vitality. The Planning Commission held work sessions in
April, May, July and September to address these key areas and other policy questions . U s ing this information, staff prepared
a draft updated policy. The Planning Commission held a public hearing in October 2008 at w hich they received public
comment. The Planning Commission then forw arded a policy recommendation to the Board. On November 5, 2008 and
January 7, 2009, the Board held work sessions to review the Planning Commission’s recommended policy and provide staff
direction on additional desired policy changes. Staff has incorporated these changes into an updated Economic D ev elopment
Policy for the Board’s consideration.
STRA TEGIC PLAN: Economic Vitality – By June 30, 2010, the County will continue to maintain a strong and
sustainable economy; increase the economic vitality of the County's development areas; and increase the ability of
those individuals and families, w ho are living in lower income households, to become selfsufficient.
DISCUSSION:
Exhibit A is the proposed updated policy based on the Planning Commission’s recommendation and subsequent changes.
Exhibit B is the redline vers ion of the proposed updated policy, which show s the changes made to the draft recommended by
the Planning Commission. The following is a list of the substantiv e changes:
Introducing the Neighborhood Model into commercial development goals (Policy introduction, Objective I, Strategy
1 [page 4], and Objective II, Strategies 2 and 4 [page 6]). The Policy’s adoption predates the County’s
Neighborhood Model; therefore, the Board felt it was important to bring this into the Policy update.
Enhanc ing support to the local agricultural industry by several measures (Objective I, Strategy 4 [page 4],
Objec tive V, Strategy 2 [page 8]). The farming industry in the C ounty has dropped in scale and profitability over
time, with the most recent farm profits showing an average deficit in 2002. The Board, Planning Commission and
community developed several strategies to help bolster this industry, beginning with a study of the impact of
agriculture to the Albemarle economy.
Recognizing that, while the Univ ersity is a main driver of the local economy, military intelligence is also important
to our local economy (Objective I, Strategies 5 and 6 [page 5]). The 1995 Base Realignment and Closures (BRAC)
initiative to “ups ize” operations also predated the original policy. The recognition of University of Virginia and
Rivanna Station drivers is a more accurate reflection of current c onditions.
Enhanc ing support for work force development (Objective I, Strategy 8 [page 5], Objective VI, Strategies 14 [page
8]). The County has experienced a loss in manufacturing jobs as well as in other sectors. To help address these
losses of employment opportunity, the Policy has several new strategies to address workforce training.
Giving special attention to cooperating with other jurisdictions to address regional transportation needs (Objective
II, Strategy 6 [page 6] and Objective III, Strategy 1 [page 7]).
With these changes, s taff believes the attached policy has addressed all of the Board’s requested changes and the
updated policy is ready for adoption following the public hearing.
BUD GET IMPA CT:
No direct budget impacts. Strategies under this policy c an res ult in enhanced C ounty revenue.
RECOMMENDATION S:
Staff recommends adoption of the updated Economic Development Policy (Exhibit A).

THE POLICY:
The purpose of this economic development policy is, first and foremost, to provide the local
citizenry an improved standard of living and enhanced quality of life. Economic growth and
vitality are required to sustain and enhance the human economic, cultural, and natural
characteristics of our community. By creating and sustaining a high quality, diversified economic
environment, citizens will enjoy improved job opportunities, competitive wages, work force
development opportunities and a diversified tax base. Within well defined development areas, we
will seek to designate opportunity sites to address future growth needs in a manner that will add to
the strength of our community. We will engage with our resident and new enterprises seeking to
expand their businesses. We will work to find appropriate development areas sites to
accommodate this positive growth within the context of the Master Planning process and the
Comprehensive Plan. We will work to encourage a mix of uses, and a balance of jobs and housing
within our development areas, in keeping with our commitment to the Neighborhood model form
of development. We will work with resident and new agricultural enterprises to, in an
environmentally sustainable manner; maximize their productivity and tourism opportunities as a
part of our overall strategy to preserve the rich agrarian tradition and texture of our rural areas.
We recognize our position, along with the City of Charlottesville, as the center of the regional
economy. We recognize the economic objectives of other localities in the region, while renewing
our commitment to our own economic development within the framework of our growth
management objectives.
We are like other university communities in that we have an above-average labor force
participation rate and above-average number of part-time workers (both students and adults who
prefer part-time work). The University of Virginia is a consistently strong employer and offers
great potential for associated scientific research and development. Other major employers
continue to provide employment stability and diversity. The renowned natural environment, Blue
Ridge Mountain location, and historic resources of the area provide a growing tourist trade as
well as an attractive place to do business.
Note: "Business" and "industry" are intended to be inclusive and interchangeable terms, meaning
the commercial production and sale of goods or services.
GOALS, OBJECTIVES, AND STRATEGIES:
GOAL: Maintain a strong and sustainable economy: 1) benefiting County citizens and
existing businesses and providing diversified economic opportunities; 2)
supportive of the County's Growth Management Policy and consistent with the
other Comprehensive Plan goals; and, 3) taking into consideration the greater
Charlottesville Metropolitan region.
OBJECTIVE I: Base economic development policy on planning efforts which support and
enhance the strengths of the County.
2
STRATEGIES:
1. Protect through diligent growth management efforts the County's distinctive natural and
man-made qualities to maintain its attractiveness as a place to live and work. Support
those projects that meet the intent of the Neighborhood model form of development, i.e.,
offer a mix of uses and a balance of jobs to housing in our development areas.
2. Maintain the relationship of high quality schools and public services and an outstanding
level of natural and cultural amenities to positive economic development, and maintain
these attributes.
3. Increase the promotion of tourism focused on the rural, agrarian, and historical resources
of the County, and which does not threaten or compromise those resources and to be
consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
4. Increase the promotion of local agricultural industry consistent with the goals, objectives
and implementation strategies of the Comprehensive Plan, more specifically by
• Increasing support to local agricultural infrastructure such local food networks and
programs. (The agricultural infrastructure provides markets and supplies to farmers
and significant economic activity to Albemarle County as a whole.)
• Establishing a proactive rural-support program that provides assistance to the local
agricultural community, and that includes an on-going dialogue with farm-industry
stakeholders.
• Supporting farmers by connecting those farmers with technical resources such as
those provided by the Farm Bureau, PVCC, PEC and VA Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services and to landowners interested in leasing farm
land.
• Incorporating outreach and education in public school programs.
• Addressing the Comprehensive Plan, Rural Area Chapter recommendations for
economic vitality.
• Participating in or commissioning study of the impact of agriculture to Albemarle
County’s economy.
5. Recognize that the University of Virginia is a main driver of economic vitality and can
provide important resources for business and industry. Work with the University, its
associated entities and the City to take advantage of opportunities to benefit from this
resource in innovative ways. In addition:
• Working with the University and the City through the Three-Party Agreements
process to encourage appropriate infill locations and environmental sensitivity in
the planning and development of University facilities.
6. Recognize the importance and role of military intelligence as another type of economic
driver to the local economy and the region, as well as an important resource for national
security. Encourage base location and expansion to be consistent with County policies.
7. Maintain a contact point for information about the County, including the Business
Development Facilitator who serves as the County’s principal liaison with the business-
3
community, for the purpose of encouraging development and businesses consistent with
the County’s Comprehensive Plan.
8. Increase planning for the special needs, and utilize the talents, of the growing retired
population attracted to this area, including “encore-career” seekers, a term used to describe
work in the second half of life that combines continued income, greater meaning and
social impact.
9. Increase support to initiatives that support employment of the local labor force, rather than
heav y reliance on relocated workers.
10. Encourage all businesses to adopt environmentally sustainable measures and discourage
business and industry which is not environmentally sustainable or friendly (such as high
water users, polluters).
11. Increase diversity in business and industry which will accommodate a variety of
skill/educational levels, and provide for a diversified tax base, in particular to reduce the
tax burden borne b y residential property owners.
12. Maintain data on County plans, zoning, sites, and policies, and make these available on
request. Monitor and report to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors about
the volume of economic development activity and how that activity is fitting with the
Goals, Objectives and Strategies of the Comprehensive Plan.
OBJECTIVE II: Plan for land and infrastructure to accommodate future business and
industrial growth.
STRATEGIES:
1. Assess the quality of areas designated for business and industry through analysis of the
site size variety, topography, location, and availability of infrastructure in such areas, and
compile an inventory of actual, useable land.
2. Designate areas for office, commercial and industrial development within the designated
development areas that meet the development standards of the Comprehensive Plan and
will provide sufficient land to meet community needs through the next Comprehensive
Plan revision.
• Ensure that land for business and industrial uses are consistent with the
neighborhood model principles, which provide for ease of access for employees to
housing, support services, and multi-modal options.
3. Utilize the rezoning process and associated proffer allowances to address needs brought
about by new development and to provide the community with assurances about future
development activities.
4
4. Encourage infill development of business and industrial uses in areas designated in the
Land Use Plan, including consideration of proactively rezoning land to allow for light-
industrial uses as needs are identified through Master Plans and other efforts. Initiate
zoning text amendments that further enable business and light-industrial uses of the
appropriate zoning districts. Additional infill approaches include:
• Encouraging the provision of business and light-industrial development opportunities
in non-residential and mixed-use projects in the development review and approval
process.
• Encouraging proffers for assembling light-industrial land or funding to offset the cost
of local light-industrial-user expansion where there is an impact from the project and
mitigating impacts.
5. Maintain and implement current infrastructure (water, sewer, roads, and community
facilities) programs to support business and industrial development of designated areas.
Identify infrastructure improvements that better enable business and industrial
development.
6. Continue to cooperate with other jurisdictions on regional transportation initiatives (trails,
rail, road, transit, and air travel).
7. Continue to work with property owners in designated Development Areas to identify
infrastructure needs, and promote good planning for development of such areas consistent
with County growth management strategies.
OBJECTIVE III: Recognize the County's place in the regional economy.
STRATEGIES:
1. Maintain cooperation with the City of Charlottesville, TJPDC, the Thomas Jefferson
Partnership for Economic Development (TJPED), other jurisdictions in the region, the
University of Virginia, and Piedmont Virginia Community College for:
• Development of a coordinated economic data base.
• Continuing discussion among the TJPDC jurisdictions about working and
shopping patterns, wage levels, job stability, work force development needs,
housing affordability, public services, tax burdens, and other topics which
relate to the purposes of local and regional economic development policy;
• Distribution of information about development opportunities in the Thomas
Jefferson Planning District Commission (TJPDC) to those who request it;
• Regional work force development;
• Addressing linkages between housing and wages;
• Evaluating local, regional, statewide, national, and worldwide economic trends to
determine the current and future economic stability of, and growth
opportunities for, different types of business and industry;
• Initiatives such as the high school technology tour; and
5
• Continue to cooperate with other jurisdictions on regional transportation initiatives
(trails, rail, road, transit, and air travel).
2. Support mutual consultation on regional development projects along shared borders,
and/or on projects of significance to more than one locality, possibly through a
"Memorandum of Understanding."
OBJECTIVE IV: Consider fiscal impact as one indicator of positive economic development,
along with environmental impact and standard of living impact.
STRATEGIES:
1. Maintain evaluation of the fiscal impacts of new business/industrial development.
2. Recognize that Count y residents place importance on job opportunities and economic
growth, but not at the expense of the protection and preservation of water quality and
quantity, natural resources, farmland, historic areas, and open space.
3. Recognize that the purpose of this economic development policy is to provide the local
citizenry an improved standard of living, improved job and wage opportunities, and work
force development opportunities, rather than to seek to stimulate further population
growth.
4. Recognize, identify and quantify new benefits and costs (for business and citizens)
imposed by an y proposed ordinance or policy change on business prior to taking action on
said policy or ordinance.
OBJECTIVE V: Increase local business development opportunities.
STRATEGIES:
1. Maintain support to existing businesses and industries through an open door policy of
communication, and exchange of information and concerns.
2. Support and coordinate with existing entities that assist new small, locally-owned, local
agricultural ventures, minority businesses and micro-enterprises in their start-up and early
operation efforts.
OBJECTIVE VI: Increase work force development opportunities, to further career-ladder
opportunity and higher wages.
STRATEGIES:
1. Recognize that the most fundamentally sound work force is one that has basic education
and good work habits:
6
• Increase support for initiatives that foster career-planning, decision-making and
workplace readiness skills for the K-12 population, such as and as measured by the
number of participants in career-education activities;
• Increase support for facilities to support residents seeking apprenticeship, industry
licensure or certifications for high-demand and career-ladder jobs. Target populations
would include disadvantaged, lower-income and “encore-career” seekers served by
the VA Employment Commission;
• Promote employee certification and licensure to the business community; and
• Focus efforts on opportunities that increase wages to local residents.
2. Encourage and support continuing educational and training programs to prepare the local
work force for the skill demands of current and future employers, including appropriate
work habits and life skills.
• Increase support (purchase of books, etc.) for Albemarle County residents to attend
pre-employment training at career centers to include topics such as time-management,
stress-management and customer service.
• Increase support for continuing education and training programs, ideally targeting
incumbent-worker, career-ladder training.
3. Increase the use of information gathering strategies such as,
a. A regional, baseline workforce study to define and benchmark underemployment
and “not-in-the-labor force” needs as well as employer needs
b. Use entrepreneur software to help identify workforce training needs
4. Monitor performance of the County’s Strategic Plan and the Comprehensive Plan
(education, housing, day care, transportation, etc.) to address barriers experienced by the
local work force, particularly those with greatest needs.
Priority Action Measures:
To address issues identified in the 2007 updated data, the Policy’s short-term priorities include the
following strategies:
• Objective I. Strategy 4. Increasing the promotion of local agricultural industry consistent
with the goals, objectives and implementation strategies of the Comprehensive Plan, such as
the purchase of local products, establishing a rural-support program and continuing a
dialogue with farm-industry stakeholders.
• Objective II. Strategy 4. Encourage infill development of business and industrial uses in
areas appropriately designated in the Land Use Plan, including consideration of proactively
rezoning to light-industrial uses as needs are identified through Master Plans and other
efforts. Initiate zoning text amendments that further enable business and light-industrial uses
of the appropriate zoning districts.
• Objective VI. Strategy 3. Increase the use of information gathering strategies such as:
o A regional, baseline workforce study “underemployed,” those not in the labor force (as
defined by the VA Employment Commission) and employer needs.
o Use entrepreneur software to identify and promote workforce training.

Tables/2005 age distribution
Comparing the County’s household age distribution to the state and nation indicates that Albemarle County has a greater
proportion of its households headed by 15 to 24 year olds and fewer households headed by persons 35 to 44 years of age.
Surprisingly, given the County’s reputation as a retirement destination, the County has a lower share of its households above the
age of 65 as compared to the state and nation.

The County's per capita taxable sales have increased by approximately 50% between 1996 and 2006, an increase that is better than
that of the peer average (42%). Albemarle's per capita sales are consistently lower than the peer average, however, perhaps
because of the proximity of shopping opportunities in Charlottesville, and the fact that our region contains a high number of
students, many of whom do not live and shop in the area the entire year.

THE POLICY:
Albemarle County has a strong economy. We have a growing population and labor force and
have experienced low unemployment rates. The labor force is skilled and well-educated. Good
schools, good planning, and our quality of life are important factors in the County's current
economic position. Median incomes are higher than at the State and regional levels. A
consistently strong employer is present in the University of Virginia, which, as a major university
and medical center, offers great potential for associated research and development industry.
Other major employers and sectors continue to provide employment stability and diversity. The
renowned natural environment, Blue Ridge Mountain location, and historic resources of the area
provide a growing tourist trade as well as an attractive place to do business. The rural and
agrarian heritage contributes to this character, and also offers opportunity for agricultural and
forestry industries. These are the strengths of Albemarle County which this economic
development policy recognizes, and will seek to maintain.
We are like other university communities in that we have an above-average labor force
participation rate and above-average number of part-time workers (both students and adults who
prefer part-time work). As a university community, we have a somewhat captive labor force as
well as people who live here for quality of life reasons, knowing that wages would be higher in
the more urban parts of the state. We are a growing community with rising property values, and a
large share of our housing stock is new and priced accordingly. The high demand for both new
and used housing and the desirability of the community produce well above average housing costs
relative to wages paid by many employers. As we fine tune our community, we seek to maintain
a diversity of employment opportunities and to find ways to add housing for the lower half of the
incomes in our community. We also have lower-income residents who are unable to work
regularly, or who work for minimum wage. Possible increases in the minimum wage nationally
would benefit those who continue to work in the minimum wage positions. Local efforts to
enhance skills and to develop the work force may also provide ways to move individuals out of
minimum wage jobs.
The purpose of this economic development policy is, first and foremost, to provide the local
citizenry an improved standard of living and enhanced quality of life. Economic growth and
vitality are required to sustain and enhance the human economic, cultural, and natural
characteristics of our community. By creating and sustaining a high quality, diversified economic
environment, citizens will enjoy improved job opportunities, competitive wages, work force
development opportunities and a diversified tax base. Within well defined development areas, we
will seek to designate opportunity sites to address future growth needs in a manner that will add to
the strength of our community. We will engage with our resident and new enterprises seeking to
expand their businesses. We will work to find appropriate development areas sites to
accommodate this positive growth within the context of the Master Planning process and the
Comprehensive Plan. We will work to encourage a mix of uses, and a balance of jobs and housing
within our development areas, in keeping with our commitment to the Neighborhood model form
of development. We will work with resident and new agricultural enterprises to, in an
environmentally sustainable manner; maximize their productivity and tourism opportunities as a
part of our overall strategy to preserve the rich agrarian tradition and texture of our rural areas.
We recognize our position, along with the City of Charlottesville, as the center of the regional
economy. We recognize the economic objectives of other localities in the region, while renewing

our commitment to our own economic development within the framework of our growth
management objectives.
We are like other university communities in that we have an above-average labor force
participation rate and above-average number of part-time workers (both students and adults who
prefer part-time work). The University of Virginia is a consistently strong employer and offers
great potential for associated scientific research and development. Other major employers
continue to provide employment stability and diversity. The renowned natural environment, Blue
Ridge Mountain location, and historic resources of the area provide a growing tourist trade as
well as an attractive place to do business.
Note: "Business" and "industry" are intended to be inclusive and interchangeable terms, meaning
the commercial production and sale of goods or services.
GOALS, OBJECTIVES, AND STRATEGIES:
GOAL: Maintain a strong and sustainable economy: 1) benefiting County citizens and
existing businesses and providing diversified economic opportunities; 2)
supportive of the County's Growth Management Policy and consistent with the
other Comprehensive Plan goals; and, 3) taking into consideration the greater
Charlottesville Metropolitan region.
OBJECTIVE I: Base economic development policy on planning efforts which support and
enhance the strengths of the County.
STRATEGIES:
1. Protect through diligent growth management efforts the County's distinctive natural and
man-made qualities to maintain its attractiveness as a place to live and work. Support
those projects that meet the intent of the Neighborhood model form of development, i.e.,
offer a mix of uses and a balance of jobs to housing in our development areas.
2. Maintain the relationship of high quality schools and public services and an outstanding
level of natural and cultural amenities to positive economic development, and maintain
these attributes.
3. Increase the promotion of tourism focused on the rural, agrarian, and historical resources
of the County, and which does not threaten or compromise those resources and to be
consistent with the goals of the Comprehensive Plan.
4. Increase the promotion of local agricultural industry consistent with the goals, objectives
and implementation strategies of the Comprehensive Plan, more specifically by
• Increasing support to local agricultural infrastructure such local food networks and
programs. (The agricultural infrastructure provides markets and supplies to farmers
and significant economic activity to Albemarle County as a whole.)
• Establishing a proactive rural-support program that provides assistance to the local
agricultural community, and that includes an on-going dialogue with farm-industry
Exhibit B
- 5 -
stakeholders.
• Supporting farmers by connecting those farmers with technical resources such as
those provided by the Farm Bureau, PVCC, PEC and VA Department of
Agriculture and Consumer Services and to landowners interested in leasing farm
land.
• Incorporating outreach and education in public school programs.
• Addressing the Comprehensive Plan, Rural Area Chapter recommendations for
economic vitality.
• Participating in or commissioning study of the impact of agriculture to Albemarle
County’s economy.
5. Recognize that the University of Virginia is a main driver of economic vitality and can
provide important resources for business and industry. Work with the University, its
associated entities and the City to take advantage of opportunities to benefit from this
resource in innovative ways. In addition:
• Working with the University and the City through the Three-Party Agreements
process to encourage appropriate infill locations and environmental sensitivity in
the planning and development of University facilities.
6. Recognize the importance and role of military intelligence as another type of economic
driver to the local economy and the region, as well as an important resource for national
security. Encourage base location and expansion to be consistent with County policies.
7. Maintain a contact point for information about the County, including the Business
Development Facilitator who serves as the County’s principal liaison with the business
community for the purpose of encouraging development and businesses consistent with
the County’s Comprehensive Plan.
8. Increase planning for the special needs, and utilize the talents, of the growing retired
population attracted to this area, including “encore-career” seekers, a term used to describe
work in the second half of life that combines continued income, greater meaning and
social impact.
9. Increase support to initiatives that support employment of the local labor force, rather than
heavy reliance on relocated workers.
10. Encourage all businesses to adopt environmentally sustainable measures and discourage
business and industry which is not environmentally sustainable or friendly (such as high
water users, polluters).
11. Increase diversity in business and industry which will accommodate a variety of
skill/educational levels, and provide for a diversified tax base, in particular to reduce the
tax burden borne by residential property owners.
12. Maintain data on County plans, zoning, sites, and policies, and make these available on
request. Monitor and report to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors about
the volume of economic development activity and how that activity is fitting with the

Goals, Objectives and Strategies of the Comprehensive Plan.
OBJECTIVE II: Plan for land and infrastructure to accommodate future business and
industrial growth.
STRATEGIES:
1. Assess the quality of areas designated for business and industry through analysis of the
site size variety, topography, location, and availability of infrastructure in such areas, and
compile an inventory of actual, useable land.
2. Designate areas for office, commercial and industrial development within the designated
development areas that meet the development standards of the Comprehensive Plan and
will provide sufficient land to meet community needs through the next Comprehensive
Plan revision.
• Ensure that land for business and industrial uses are consistent with the
neighborhood model principles, which provide for ease of access for employees to
housing, support services, and multi-modal options.
3. Utilize the rezoning process and associated proffer allowances to address needs brought
about by new development and to provide the community with assurances about future
development activities.
4. Encourage infill development of business and industrial uses in areas designated in the
Land Use Plan, including consideration of proactively rezoning land to allow for light-
industrial uses as needs are identified through Master Plans and other efforts. Initiate
zoning text amendments that further enable business and light-industrial uses of the
appropriate zoning districts. Additional infill approaches include:
• Encouraging the provision of business and light-industrial development opportunities
in non-residential and mixed-use projects in the development review and approval
process.
• Encouraging proffers for assembling light-industrial land or funding to offset the cost
of local light-industrial-user expansion where there is an impact from the project and
mitigating impacts.
5. Maintain and implement current infrastructure (water, sewer, roads, and community
facilities) programs to support business and industrial development of designated areas.
Identify infrastructure improvements that better enable business and industrial
development.
6. Continue to cooperate with other jurisdictions on regional transportation initiatives (trails,
rail, road, transit, and air travel).
7. Continue to work with property owners in designated Development Areas to identify

infrastructure needs, and promote good planning for development of such areas consistent
with County growth management strategies.
OBJECTIVE III: Recognize the County's place in the regional economy.
STRATEGIES:
1. Maintain cooperation with the City of Charlottesville, TJPDC, Thomas Jefferson
Partnership for Economic Development (TJPED), other jurisdictions in the region, the
University of Virginia, and Piedmont Virginia Community College for:
• Development of a coordinated economic data base.
• Continuing discussion among the TJPDC jurisdictions about working and
shopping patterns, wage levels, job stability, work force development needs,
housing affordability, public services, tax burdens, and other topics which
relate to the purposes of local and regional economic development policy;
• Distribution of information about development opportunities in the Thomas
Jefferson Planning District Commission (TJPDC) to those who request it;
• Regional work force development;
• Addressing linkages between housing and wages;
• Evaluating local, regional, statewide, national, and worldwide economic trends to
determine the current and future economic stability of, and growth
opportunities for, different types of business and industry;
• Initiatives such as the high school technology tour; and
Continue to cooperate with other jurisdictions on regional transportation initiatives
(trails, rail, road, transit, and air travel).
2. Support mutual consultation on regional development projects along shared borders,
and/or on projects of significance to more than one locality, possibly through a
"Memorandum of Understanding."
3. Measure our accomplishments in economic development against the strategic questions
posed in the Community Vision Statement regarding economic opportunity
OBJECTIVE IV: Consider fiscal impact as one indicator of positive economic development,
along with environmental impact and standard of living impact.
STRATEGIES:
1. Maintain evaluation of the fiscal impacts of new business/industrial development.
2. Recognize that County residents place importance on job opportunities and economic
growth, but not at the expense of the protection and preservation of water quality and
quantity, natural resources, farmland, historic areas, and open space.
Exhibit B
- 8 -
3. Recognize that the purpose of this economic development policy is to provide the local
citizenry an improved standard of living, improved job and wage opportunities, and work
force development opportunities, rather than to seek to stimulate further population
growth.
4. Recognize, identify and quantify new benefits and costs (for business and citizens)
imposed by any proposed ordinance or policy change on business prior to taking action on
said policy or ordinance.
OBJECTIVE V: Increase local business development opportunities.
STRATEGIES:
1. Maintain support to existing businesses and industries through an open door policy of
communication, and exchange of information and concerns.
2. Support and coordinate with existing entities that assist new small, locally-owned, local
agricultural ventures, minority businesses and micro-enterprises in their start-up and early
operation efforts.
3. Where and when possible examine options to help create a local business incubator
resource, or equivalent resource, to encourage both work force development and local
entrepreneurship. Business incubators are programs designed to accelerate the successful
development of entrepreneurial companies through an array of business support resources
and services, developed and orchestrated by incubator management and offered both in the
incubator and through its network of contacts.
OBJECTIVE VI: Increase work force development opportunities, to further career-ladder
opportunity and higher wages.
STRATEGIES:
1. Recognize that the most fundamentally sound work force is one that has basic education
and good work habits:
• Increase support for initiatives that foster career-planning, decision-making and
workplace readiness skills for the K-12 population, such as and as measured by the
number of participants in career-education activities;
• Increase support for facilities to support residents seeking apprenticeship, industry
licensure or certifications for high-demand and career-ladder jobs. Target populations
would include disadvantaged, lower-income and “encore-career” seekers served by
the VA Employment Commission;
• Promote employee certification and licensure to the business community; and
• Focus efforts on opportunities that increase wages to local residents.
2. Encourage and support continuing educational and training programs to prepare the local
work force for the skill demands of current and future employers, including appropriate
Increase support

ion
and
¶
testing

- 9 -
work habits and life skills.
• Increase support (purchase of books, etc.) for Albemarle County residents to attend
pre-employment training at career centers to include topics such as time-management,
stress-management and customer service.
• Increase support for continuing education and training programs, ideally targeting
incumbent-worker, career-ladder training.
3. Increase the use of information gathering strategies such as,
a. A regional, baseline workforce study to define and benchmark underemployment
and “not-in-the-labor force” needs as well as employer needs
b. Use entrepreneur software to help identify workforce training needs
4. Monitor performance of the County’s Strategic Plan and the Comprehensive Plan
(education, housing, day care, transportation, etc.) to address barriers experienced by the
local work force, particularly those with greatest needs.
Priority Action Measures:
To address issues identified in the 2007 updated data, the Policy’s short-term priorities include the
following strategies:
• Objective I. Strategy 4. Increasing the promotion of local agricultural industry
consistent with the goals, objectives and implementation strategies of the
Comprehensive Plan, such as the purchase of local products, establishing a rural-
support program and continuing a dialogue with farm-industry stakeholders.
• Objective II. Strategy 4. Encourage infill development of business and industrial uses
in areas appropriately designated in the Land Use Plan, including consideration of
proactively rezoning to light-industrial uses as needs are identified through Master
Plans and other efforts. Initiate zoning text amendments that further enable business
and industrial uses of the appropriate zoning districts.
• Objective VI. Strategy 3. Increase the use of information gathering strategies such as:
o A regional, baseline workforce study to define and benchmark the needs of
“underemployed” and those not in the labor force (as defined by the VA
Employment Commission) as well as employer needs.
o Use entrepreneur software to identify workforce training needs and promote
workforce training opportunities.

Tables/2005 age distribution
Comparing the County’s household age distribution to the state and nation indicates that Albemarle County has a greater
proportion of its households headed by 15 to 24 year olds and fewer households headed by persons 35 to 44 years of age.
Surprisingly, given the County’s reputation as a retirement destination, the County has a lower share of its households above the
age of 65 as compared to the state and nation.

The County's per capita taxable sales have increased by approximately 50% between 1996 and 2006, an increase that is better than
that of the peer average (42%). Albemarle's per capita sales are consistently lower than the peer average, however, perhaps
because of the proximity of shopping opportunities in Charlottesville, and the fact that our region contains a high number of
students, many of whom do not live and shop in the area the entire year.
