Page 483 After a discussion Mr. Roudabush made a motion to deny the use under the A-1 Category which was seconded by Dr. Sams. The motion was carried unanimously by those members participating.

OLD BUSINESS: At this time a discussion was held to clarify the history of plans submitted by "Greenbriar Heights Subdivision" extension in views of the fact that the Commission minutes were not clear on the matter. It was ascertained that at the meeting of the Commission held on November 2, 1970 the subdivision plat showing section three, Block F, Greenbriar Hefights, contain- ing nine (9) lots were presented for approval by W. S. Roudabush, Jr. Surveyor. The primary discussion held at M Page 484 that meeting was related to the improvement of "Chapel Hill Road", a private restricted road not in the states secondary system. Mr. Roudabush at the meeting submitted a Preliminary Master Plan for the Subdivision of additional land of "Greenbriar Heights" dated October 9, 1970 which showed lots fronting on the Chapel Hill Road. The minutes of November 2, 1970 stated that action on Section three, Block F as mentioned was deferred to ascertain whether or not, Mr. Forloines should develope a 50 foot R/W Road for inclusion into the State System if a twenty foot wide strip was dedicated by those property owners on the north side of the center line of "Chapel Hill Road". This matter was brought back to the Commission prior to March 15, 1971 at a regular meeting of the Commission. The minutes do not relate this second meeting regarding the plan. At this second meeting the secretary reported that the County Attorney had informed him thatiftre property owners on the north side of "Chapel Hill Road" would dedicate the additional R/W, he could not see why Mr. Forloines could not developf a road for inclusion into the State System. A lenghty discussion was held with the following action: That the Plat of Block F Section be approved provided that a road acceptable to the State Highway Department was developed to a point where it would tie into a road already in the Slate or City System. The Commission considered that Glenn Drive as shown, on the October 9, 1970 Plat would meet the condition of approval. They also noted that if the entire length of Chapel Hill could be developed for inclusion into the State System, it would be to the benefit of all concern. Between this second meeting and the Marchil5, 1971 meeting, numerous meetings between Land onwers on Chapel Hill Road and Mr. Forloines and his representatives were held. Mr. Lloyd Wood was also represented at this meeting. On March 15, 1971 at a regular meeting of the Commission a new Preliminary Plan for the extension of "Greenbriar Heights" was submitted for approval as reflected in the March 15, 1971 meeting. At that meeting it was reported that an agreement could not be obtained between property owners on the north side of Chapel Hill Road to met the condition approval of the Commission relating to Section 3 Block F of Greenbriar Heights. Subsequently the new Preliminary Plat was approved with lots back onto Chapel Hill Road.

JUDGE AMATO: (EARLYSVILLE ==NORTH ALBEMARLE) People didn't want to be bounded to the cluster conclusively as laid out. For example high density areas would not necessarily have to be located as shown on the plan maps, etc. MR. HENRY PAGE: (SOUTHERN ALBEMARLE) Population influx Number of people thought the plan would open the door to development and population increase. Mr. Page was of the opinion that Mr. Payne had answered and informed the public asto the answers to their concern. MR. CECIL MAUPIN: (FREE UNION-CROZET) People were very well satisfied .

DAVID CARR: (IVY) Ce�►�Ra[. 13,,^X�css D�sEa�cf People concerned with:—ro. in Ivy, didn't want any except what exi.,sts. They want to preserve Ivy as a bedroom community. He sensed that people feel like the picture drawn is the everlasting situation. Dr. SAMS: ( SCOTTSVILLE) Industrial areas on Route 6 should be more approp- iately located in the "UNIROYAL PLANT AREA".

Mr. Rosser Payne needs to report further on this implementation of this zone. MR. ROUDABUSH: (KESWICK-SHADWELL) People were concerned with retaining agricultural character. The main concern with two industrial sites, one on Route 22 and at the I-64 interchange with Route 616. The people want elimination of the industrial site on Route 20. Why must growth come? What is to make people want to live in the clusters? Are we encouraging growth? 1 cm Page 490 Willgrowth support itself? Does the plan automatically zone the property as shown in the plan? Would defeat of Bond issue the vast growth? What effect has the plan on taxes? JIM PARKS: (CHARLOTTESVILLE AREA) Route 29 was the major concern of the citizens. Mr. Parks was concerned with R-3 zone on Route 29 North. Doesn't think it feasible to locate apartments on high speed roads. Strip zoning is here to stay MR.
