Hey Chris,
Thank you for the follow up and for the preliminary comments about additional information requested by
Staff. Per Sec. 33.52(A) of the Code of Albemarle, it is our request to have the Board of Supervisors take
action on this special exception request for critical slopes disturbance on or before October 26, 2021.
Let me know if you need anything more formal to process this deferral request.
Best,
Kelsey

Kelsey,
SE202000019 - Christian Aid Mission Special Exception
Per our conversation, after a preliminary lookover of your application it would be very helpful to have more
information before distributing this project for everyone to review, as not much context information has been
provided with your request. I offer the following suggestions to help enhance your application.
Provide a 1 or 2 page site plan type sheet as an overview of the entire site, to include both entrances (the
existing and the proposed), all buildings, travelways and parking areas, this document should also
show the site's relationship to adjacent properties and road networks abutting the property. It should
be scalable and should specifically provide distances to the light, distances to the bridge, depict the
nursery entrance. It should also list the existing uses that will remain and the proposed uses for when
the entrance will be proposed. It should show the location of the primary and reserve drainfields (as I
believe the new entrance crosses over those). This document will be used for staff review.
• You should make a clear case for why this SE should be approved. I'd mention what is different since
the last time this went to the BOS, what has changed for their consideration.
• This special exception item will go to the PC and the BOS. If staff is recommending approval consent
agenda is not an option because of the history associated with the request and the substantial public
interest.
• I'd suggest you submit crash data for the site's Rte. 250 right out entrance and crash data at the stop
light, as this was an element of the last submittal of this request and the BOS may request this
information.
• There is a risk associated with your request, since you are pushing the design of the entrance to the
Major Site Plan Amendment, if anything changes with the design of the entrance at the Major Site
Plan amendment stage that causes additional critical slopes to be effected that are not approved by the
BOS you would need to go back to the BOS for approval of those additional slopes.
To allow for the above information to be submitted please request a deferral of the proposal.

Subject: Christian Aid Mission Special Exception
Hey Chris,
Thanks for your call yesterday about the Christian Aid Mission special exception. After we hung up, I looked
through my emails to find the correspondence I said I would forward along to you and in looking through my
emails I found that correspondence had happened over a phone call.
Again, we would like to move forward with these applications separately because in the event that the SE
application is denied by the Board, we wouldn't want to have burdened our client with the costs of the major
spa application fee and additional surveying and engineering work needed to prepare the major spa. I cannot
find anything in the code that would preclude these applications from moving forward independently and
we're confident we can provide staff with the information needed to comprehensively evaluate our critical
slopes disturbance request without making an SPA application at this time. Of course, we understand we will
have to move forward with the additional work prior to any entrance construction if the SE is approved.
I spoke with Justin about the crash data request and I know he wants to catch up with you about that and so
I hope you two can discuss that soon. Justin, please reach out when you can.
Best,
Kelsey
