Tax Map 61, Parcel 17
Dear Mr. O'Brien:
The Albemarle County Planning Commission, at its meeting on June 20, 2006, unanimously recommended
approval of the above -noted petition to the Board of Supervisors.
Please note that this approval is subject to the following conditions. Staff will review the conditions that are
not repeated exactly, but have slight changes, to make sure that they are entirely accurate and as intended
before this goes to the Board. Any changes will be reviewed with you.
1. Maximum enrollment of the Charlottesville Waldorf School shall be three hundred fifty (350) students,
with a maximum of 40 staff. Any increase to enrollment or staffing shall require amendment of this
special permit;
2. Normal hours of operation for the school shall be from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. weekdays, with occasional
uses in the evenings and weekend;
3. The approved final site plan shall be in general accord with Drawing 3 titled "Amendment to SP 2001-
040", dated May 24, 2006, hereinafter, the "Concept Plan" and shall reflect all required pedestrian and
road connections to adjacent properties.
4. The school shall be operated in general accord with the Special Use Permit Application and Justification
(SP 2001-040) submitted August 27, 2001 and the Site Development Strategy Narrative submitted via
facsimile December 18, 2001; and the stand-alone parking Special Use Permit Application and
Justification submitted March 20, 2003 for SP 2003-029;
5. If it is determined to be necessary by the County to provide for interparcel access as shown on the
concept plan and labeled "Proposed Road Easement", the owner shall make the reserved vehicular
connection available for such use. This reservation may be relocated or modified so long as it is in
general accord with the Concept Plan.
6. If it is determined by the County that alternate access connections are necessary for the properties
adjacent to the school's main access road, the owner shall construct vehicular access from this parcel to
the property line of Tax Map 61, Parcels 173A and 174 in an appropriate location and manner to be
determined in conjunction with the County's review and approval of the site plan for the school, so as not
to conflict with access to the private school.

comment at their meeting on July 12, 2006.
