Mariah,
Do you have an estimate for when the community meeting will be held? Also, do you know when the
Agricultural-Forestal Board will meet next and I'm assuming our application will be on the agenda?
Thank you,
Paul

Hi Paul,
Just checking in on this application, did you pay the application fee? If so, do you have a copy of the
receipt of payment you can provide? If you haven’t yet, the fee is due by 7/6. Please see a previous
email from Francis MacCall for more information.
Thanks,

Thank you Mariah, this is very helpful. Could you also confirm if the 17 copies of the Conceptual Plan
and 17 copies of the written narrative are still required?
Thank you,

Any update on my email below? We are trying to make sure we have everything in order for the
SUP submission.
Thank you,

Mariah,
We are continuing to work on our Special Use Permit application and have the following questions:
· Please confirm the earliest date we can submit our application and/or if it is a specific date
or a window of time. I know Monday, June 21st was referenced, but it wasn't clear if we
can submit before then, on that date or some window of time after June 21st. MG: You can
turn in the application at any time, but we have a set “submittal” schedule that determines
the official day the County will accept applications. Because these applications (legislative
applications) require a higher level of review, the County and our partner agencies have
coordinated schedules so we can track and review these types of applications in an orderly
fashion. The next such submittal date is June 21st but I’ve attached the full submittal
schedule to this email.
· Application page 2 of 5 - Required Attachments indicates we need the following
documents:
o Pre-Application Comment Form received from County Staff. Additional comments
were added to the SUP checklist and additional comments were provided via email
(below). Is there a more formal Comment Form? MG: The Pre-Application form is
that chart and checklist that was provided as an attachment. We recommend you
provide, or consider (in the case of suggested items), the information outlined on
that checklist and then sign the bottom. This checklist is a tool we use to
determine the completion of an application so I would recommend addressing as
much as possible from that list, if not all. The items provided via email were
offered by staff as more informal items to consider as you finalize your initial
submittal materials. They will have no standing in determining whether your
application is complete.
o the most recent recorded plat - How do we obtain this? MG: This can be obtained
through the Albemarle County Circuit Court. The Albemarle County GIS Web
provides the most recent Deed Book/Page for each parcel under “Parcel Summary
Info” > “Most Recent Sales History”. According to the GIS information, the most
recent recorded instrument for TMP 88-23 is Deed Book 1666 Page 208 and, for
TMP 88-23E, the most recent plat would be in DB 1211 PG 280. I went ahead and
looked up each one on your behalf. Please see the plats for each parcel attached.
These are the documents that you would include in your application.
· Could you please confirm which fees are required based on the Application page 4 of 5 fee
schedule? And please confirm this fee is not paid until after submission, once the
application is deemed complete? MG: I do not typically handle fees. The application fee
would be told to you once the application is deemed complete, which happens within a
week of the official submittal date. At which point, you have a set period of time to pay the
fee. Looking at the list of fees, I would estimate that you would be paying the New Special
Use Permit fee ($2,150), the Initial Notice Fee ($435), and the Fire Rescue Review Fee
($50).
Thank you,
Paul

Hi Paul and Bettina,
Thank you for meeting with us on Monday, May 10, 2021 regarding your possible application for a
Special Use Permit for a day camp/boarding camp on TMP 88-23 & 23E. Attached is the
mandatory checklist from the meeting, with some additional information, links, and notes below:
County Code 18-33: Special Use Permits
· Div 4. Special Use Permits (starting at 33.30)
· This describes the entire SP process and includes information on what is required in the
application
· Includes the ‘four factors’ used to analyze SP’s
· Conditions may be written for SP’s to mitigate effects of the use (e.g. noise, lighting)
Comprehensive Plan
· Legislative review applications (Special Use Permits and Rezonings) are reviewed against
consistency with the Comprehensive Plan
· The Comp Plan is a guiding policy document with the long-range vision for the County
County Code 18-10: Rural Areas
· This is the Zoning District for your parcel
· Includes the intent of the district
· Includes what uses are allowed (BR is by-right and SP is special use permit)
Special Use Permit application/info
· Main page
· Application
· Example checklist
· Flow chart
Community Meeting
· A required community meeting will be held, about 3-4 weeks after submitting the
application
· The applicant is responsible for sending letters to nearby/adjacent property owners. The
County provides the names and addresses and a letter template. The County will also host
the virtual community meeting along with you, the applicant.
Summary of SP process and steps
· Submit application through online portal (3rd Monday of each month;
https://lfweb.albemarle.org/Forms/CDDSubmission)
· Coordinate with Planner lead reviewer on the required community meeting
· Resubmit (if needed) to address review comments
· Planning Commission Public Hearing (PC makes a recommendation)
· The staff report will also have a recommendation
· Board of Supervisors Public Hearing (votes to approve or deny)
Below are some additional comments provided by staff which may be of interest as you move
forward with the special use permit request:
· Suggest revising the narrative to state that the property is “not connected to municipal
utilities”. The term “central utilities” refers to central water supplies or central sewerage
systems, which have a different definition.
· Recommend revising the map materials to remove identifying off-site areas as part of the
proposal, particularly if no changes are being volunteered for these areas.
· From Fire Rescue: Just a thought regarding water supply for fighting potential fires. With
the pond on site, there is opportunity to address that on site. Wonder if they would
consider adding a dry hydrant that would allow access to the water in the pond. This
would entail installing access to the hydrant, which could be part of the road/access
development to keep cost down. The forestry department has a grant program that may
defray the cost of the hydrant itself. It is important to note, this is not the traditional
hydrant. This is usually PVC type piping that extends into the pond and has an above the
surface access that we can hook our hoses to and pull water from the pond utilizing a
technique called drafting. (*Note: Dry hydrants can be a benefit to the larger surrounding
area, not just to the subject property. If you, the applicant, were amenable to accepting a
condition requiring a dry hydrant that was always accessible to the Fire Department, this
could reasonably be seen as a public benefit.)
Please let us know if you have any questions in the meantime.
Best,
Mariah Gleason
