RE: ARB-2020-31 and SP-2020-07: Rappahannock Electric Cooperative
(TM P: 02100-00-00-012 DO)
Dear Ms. Long,
The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board, at its meeting on Monday, November 2, 2020,
completed an advisory review of the above -noted requests. The ARB voted 3:1 to forward a
recommendation of no objection to the proposal with the condition that the IVM plan include
proactive management to promote:
1) Native Virginia meadows, low growing shrub landscapes, and native species
pollinators in the existing and proposed utility easement areas by suppressing forest
succession, and
2) Lower growing trees, grasses, wildflowers, and other vegetation that is compatible
with safety needs and regulations and that is visually pleasing when viewed from the
Entrance Corridor.
If you have any questions concerning any of the above, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Margaret Maliszewski
Chief of Planning/Resource Management
