These conditions are proffered as a part of the requested rezoning and it is agreed that: (1) the rezoning itself gives rise to the need for the conditions; and (2) such conditions have a reasonable relation to the rezoning request. AFFORDABLE HOUSING The Owner shall provide the equivalent of nineteen (19) residential dwelling units as "affordable units" for sale or lease. The nineteen (19) units shall be comprised of one or more of the following unit types: single - family attached housing (townhouses) or condominiums. The Owner or his successor in interest reserves the right to achieve the nineteen (19) equivalent affordable units in a variety of ways, utilizing the above mentioned unit types alone or in combination as outlined below. A) For -Sale Affordable Units — Affordable units shall be affordable to households with incomes less than eighty percent (80 %) of the area median family income (the "Affordable Unit Qualifying Income "), such that the housing costs consisting of principal, interest, real estate taxes, and homeowner's insurance (PITT) do not exceed thirty percent (30 %) of the Affordable Unit Qualifying Income, provided, however, that in no event shall the selling price of such affordable units be required to be less than the greater of One Hundred Ninety Thousand Four Hundred Dollars ($190,400) or sixty -five percent (65 %) of the applicable Virginia Housing Development Authority (VHDA) maximum mortgage for first -time home buyers at the beginning of the 90 -day identification and qualification period referenced below.

All financial programs or instruments described above must be acceptable to the primary mortgage lender. Any Soft second (silent second mortgage) executed as part of the affordable housing proffer shall be donated to a local fund designated by the Albemarle County Office of Housing. Each dwelling unit qualifying under these parameters counts as one (1) affordable unit. B) For -Lease Affordable Units — For a period of five (5) years following the date the certificate of occupancy is issued by the County for each for -lease affordable unit, or until the units are sold as low or moderate cost units qualifying as such under either the 5 Virginia Housing Development Authority, Farmers Home Administration, or Housing and Urban Development, Section 8, whichever comes first (the "Affordable Term "), such units shall be leased to households with incomes less than the Affordable Unit Qualifying Income. No for -lease affordable unit may be counted more than once towards the number of for -lease affordable dwelling units required by this Section 1. (i) Definition of For -Lease Affordable Units — Paragraph 1 shall mean that the gross lease amount including tenant paid utilities shall not exceed one - hundred twenty (120 %) percent of the fair market value of rentals published by the Department of Housing and Urban Development. (ii) Conveyance of Interest — All deeds conveying any interest in the for -lease affordable units during the Affordable Term shall contain language reciting that such unit is subject to the terms of this Section 1(B). In addition, all contracts pertaining to a conveyance of any for -lease affordable unit, or any part thereof, during the Affordable Term, shall contain a complete and full disclosure of the restrictions and controls established by this Section 1(B). Prior to the conveyance of any interest in any for -lease affordable unit during the Affordable Term, the then - current owner shall notify the County in writing of the conveyance and provide the name, address and telephone number of the potential grantee, and state that the requirements of this Section 1(B)(i) and 1(13)(ii) have been satisfied. (iii) Annual Reporting — During the Affordable Term and within ninety (90) days following the end of each calendar year, the then - current owner shall provide to the Albemarle County Housing Office or its designee a certified annual report of all for -lease affordable units for the immediately preceding year in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the County Housing Office. Subject to all federal, state and local housing laws, and upon reasonable notice during the Affordable Term, the then - current Owner shall make available to the County at the then - current Owner's premises, if requested, any reports, copies of rental or lease agreements, or other data pertaining to rental or lease rates as the County may reasonably require. C) Each subdivision plat and site plan for the land within the Property which includes affordable or other price- restricted units shall designate the lots or units that will be sub' ct to the terms and conditions of this proffer.

Prior to the issuance of the seventy -first (71 st) building permit for a market rate dwelling unit within the Property, the then - current owner /builder shall obtain certificates of occupancy for six (6) additional (for a total of twelve (12)) affordable dwelling units within the Property. Prior to the issuance of the final building permit for a market rate dwelling unit with the Property, the Owner shall obtain certificates of occupancy for all of the affordable dwelling units within the Property. D) All purchasers of the affordable units shall be approved by the Albemarle County Office of Housing or its designee. The then - current owner /builder shall provide the County or its designee a period of ninety (90) days to identify and pre - qualify an eligible purchaser for the affordable unit(s).

If the County or its designee does not provide a qualified purchaser who executes a contract of purchase during this ninety (90) day period, the then - current owner /builder shall have the right to sell the unit(s) without any restriction on sales price or income of the purchaser(s), provided, however, that any unit(s) sold without such restriction shall nevertheless be counted toward the number of affordable units required to be provided pursuant to the terms of this proffer. The requirements of this proffer shall apply only to the first sale of each of the affordable units that are purchased. If at any time prior to the County's approval of any preliminary site 6 plan or subdivision plat for the Property which includes one or more for -sale affordable units, the Housing Office informs the then - current owner /builder in writing that it may not have a qualified purchaser for one or more of the for -sale affordable units at the time that the then - current owner /builder expects the units to be completed and that the Housing Office will instead accept a cash contribution to the Housing Office to support affordable housing programs in the amount of Sixteen thousand five hundred dollars ($16,500) in lieu of each affordable unit(s), then the then - current owner /builder shall pay such cash contribution to the Housing Office prior to obtaining a certificate of occupancy for the unit(s) that were originally planned to be affordable units, and the then - current owner /builder shall have the right to sell the unit(s) without any restriction on sales price or income of the purchaser(s). If the cash contribution has not been exhausted by the Housing Office for the stated purpose within five (5) years of the date it was contributed, all unexpended funds shall be refunded to the party that contributed the funds.

In addition, if a shared driveway traverses a front yard, each primary structure also shall be located at least ten (10) feet from the edge of the shared driveway easement; if a shared driveway is concurrent with the shared lot line of the lots served by the shared driveway, each primary structure also shall be located at least six (6) feet from the edge of the shared driveway easement. (Amended 7 -1 -81, 2 -6 -02) The applicant has asked that the last the last portion of the requirement be modified to say, if a shared driveway is concurrent with the shared lot line of the lots served by the shared driveway, each primary structure also shall be located at least three (3) feet from the edge of the shared driveway easement." Staff comment: Because of the compact development proposed including very shallow setbacks for side and rear yards, 3 feet is viewed as acceptable and staff recommends approval. 4.11.1 COVERED PORCHES, BALCONIES, CHIMNEYS AND LIKE FEATURES The ordinance requirement is as follows: Covered porches, balconies, chimneys, eaves and like architectural features may project not more than four (4) feet into any required yard; provided that no such feature shall be located closer than six (6) feet to any lot line. (Amended 9 -9 -92) The applicant has requested that this section be modified to say, "Covered porches, balconies, chimneys, eaves and like architectural features may project into any required yard, provided that no such feature shall be located closer than three (3) feet to any lot line. " Staff Comment: Staff supports this request because it complements the other setback requests to provide for compact development. 4.11.2 STRUCTURES IN REQUIRED YARDS 13 The ordinance requirements are as follows: No portion of any accessory structure shall be permitted in any required yard; except as herein expressly provided. (Amended 3- 18 -81) 4.11.2.1 ACCESSORY STRUCTURES No structure shall be permitted in an easement in a way that adversely affects the easement. Accessory structures shall be erected no closer than six (6) feet to adjacent lot lines or, in the case of an alley easement or right -of -way or shared driveway easement, no closer than three (3) feet to the edge of the alley easement or right -of -way or the shared driveway easement. The director of planning and community development may authorize an accessory structure to be located closer to the edge of an alley easement or right -of -way if the director determines that, based upon the written recommendation of the county engineer, the proposed design incorporates features that assure public safety and welfare. The county engineer shall consider the provision of adequate access to required onsite parking and /or garages, unimpeded vehicular circulation along the alley, an adequate clear zone along the alley, and other safety issues deemed appropriate for the conditions. (Amended 1 -1 -83, 2 -6 -02) The applicant has requested that this section be modified to allow for the following: addition: "In front and corner yards, accessory structure setbacks shall be the same as the established build -to line for that Building Block. In side yards, accessory structure setbacks shall be three (3) feet, except with garages and carports, where the side setback shall be zero (0) feet." Staff comment: Staff supports this request to allow for attached garages at the property line and recommends approval. 4.12.9 STREET AND ALLEY PARKING The ordinance requirement is: Street and alley parking may be provided as follows: Street parking consists of parking spaces located in a public or private right -of way. Each parking space that is in a public or private right -of -way abutting the lot shall count as a parking space for the purpose of meeting the minimum parking space requirements in sections 4.12.6 and 4.12.7. Each parking space shall be on a paved area abutting the travelway, and if the parking space is in a public right -of -way it shall not be prohibited by the Virginia Department of Transportation. The applicant has requested that the last sentence be modified to say, "Each parking space shall be on a paved area within five hundred (500) feet of the travelway or public right -of- way." Staff Comment: Although this request requires that staff keep track of all parking areas adjacent to the street in terms of which uses may claim on- street parking, it is acceptable. Staff recommends that it be approved. 4.12.13 LOADING AREAS The ordinance requirements are as follows: Off - street loading areas shall be provided as follows: Loading spaces shall be provided on the same lot with the use to which it is appurtenant and shall be adjacent to the structure it serves. 14 The applicant has requested the following change, "a. Except in Block E, loading spaces shall be provided on the same lot with the use to which it is appurtenant and shall be adjacent to the structure it serves. In Block E, determination of loading space requirements shall be based on gross leaseable square footage for the Block and loading spaces shall be dispersed through out Block E in a logical fashion." Each site plan that depicts a commercial or industrial building of four thousand (4,000) gross square feet or more shall provide a dumpster pad that does not impede any required parking or loading spaces, nor any pedestrian or vehicular circulation aisles. The applicant requests that this requirement be modified to say that, "Each site plan that depicts a commercial or industrial building of four thousand (4, 000) gross square feet or more shall provide a dumpster pad within the block that does not impede any required parking or loading spaces, nor any pedestrian or vehicular circulation aisles." Staff Comment: Zoning staff can accommodate these requests and recommends approval because it allows for loading and dumpster uses in Block E to be considered on the whole rather than as individual unrelated uses. 4.12.6 MINIMUM NUMBER OF REQUIRED PARKING SPACES FOR SCHEDULED USES Section 4.12.6. provides the schedule of parking requirements for each use. The applicant has requested that the individual uses in Block E not be subject to the parking schedule; rather, that the minimum number of parking spaces for non - residential uses shall be based 4.75 spaces per 1,000 gross leasable square feet for the total square footage within the Block E. Also, garage parking shall count towards the minimum parking requirements. Staff Comment: The Zoning Division generally approves of the first part of this request, but has recommended a more restrictive waiver to ensure that sufficient parking exists for each of the uses as they are begin. Staff recommends approval of use of the shopping center parking standard; however, each site plan would have to provide sufficient parking for the use until it reaches the threshold that allows for 4.75 spaces per 1,000 square feet. At that point, the entire block will be considered as a shopping center use and individual uses will not need to provide parking for each use. Staff recommends approval as follows: When the SDP's are reviewed, the parking will be considered proportional to the size of the development proposed together with what exists. In other words, if during the rezoning it is determined that the nonresidential blocks can be calculated at 4.75 spaces per I000sfgla, but the 1 sr SDP comes in with only 10,OOOsfgla, that site plan will be required to show the parking at 5.5 spaces per 1000sfgla. Later when a 20d SDP is submitted and more square footage is added to the block, the parking generator will be reduced to include both the existing and what is proposed on that SDP. 4.15.5 SIGNS AUTHORIZED BY SPECIAL USE PERMIT The Zoning Ordinance requires the following: Except as provided in subsection (D), electric message signs, off -site signs, and signs in public rights -of- way may be authorized only by special use permit, as provided herein: Circumstances under which signs may be authorized. The signs may be authorized only under the following circumstances: Off -site signs. Off -site signs may be authorized by special use permit within any zoning district. The applicant would like to be able to have off -site signage located within the development that relates to uses or locations of buildings within the development, without having to get a special use permit. The 15 language would be modified as follows: "Off -site signs. Off -site advertising and directional signs are allowed by -right in Rivanna Village at Glenmore provided that the uses to which the signs relate are located solely within the Rivanna Village at Glenmore development. This waiver does not apply to signs that are visible from Route 250 East and Glenmore Way." Staff comment: Staff recognizes that signage internal to the development is different than signage in areas for which there is no plan of development, such as in areas zoned C -1 or HC. Also, the applicant recognizes that, within the Entrance Corridor, the ARB has purview over decisions related to signage. Staff does not have problems with the request and recommends approval because the modification would not affect the ARB's ability to issue a Certificate of Appropriateness for signs visible from the Entrance Corridor. 3. Signs in public rights -of -way. Signs in public rights -of -way; provided: (1) the subdivision or planned development to which the sign pertains abuts the public right -of -way; (2) the sign is either a subdivision sign or a sign identifying a planned development authorized by sections 19.0, 20.0, 25.0, 25A, and 29.0; (3) the freestanding sign regulations, other than setback regulations, applicable to the lot with the use to which the sign pertains shall apply; and (4) if the sign is located within an entrance corridor overlay district, a certificate of appropriateness is issued by the architectural review board. The applicant would like to be able to have the ability to put a sign in the public right -of -way or have parts of a sign project into a public right -of -way if VDOT approves it and if it poses no threat to public safety. The applicant would like the following modification: 3. Signs in public rights -of -way. Signs in public rights -of -way are permitted without special use permit in Rivanna Village at Glenmore; provided: (1) the subdivision or planned development to which the sign pertains abuts the public right -of -way; (2) all VDOT standards and regulations are met; (3) the County Engineer has determined that an adequate clear zone for pedestrian traffic can be maintained on the sidewalks. An adequate pedestrian clear zone shall be defined as a reasonably straight path paralleling the road way that is a minimum of five (5) feet wide and seven (7) high); application of this requirement pertains to signs located in the right -of -way as if these signs were on the parcel or parcels to which they are immediately adjacent; and (4) if the sign is located within an entrance corridor overlay district, a certificate of appropriateness is issued by the architectural review board. Staff Comment: Because Rivanna Village at Glenmore is a fully- contained development with an area similar to a `downtown" where canopy and awning signs in the right -of -way (over the sidewalk) typically occur, staff supports the request. Staff notes that nothing in this waiver is intended to negate any of the other requirements of Section 4.15 for signs. 4.15.11 REGULATIONS APPLICABLE IN THE PUD AND NMD ZONING DISTRICTS The Zoning Ordinance contains a table to which the following section applies: The following regulations pertaining to the number of signs permitted per lot or establishment, the sign area, sign height, and setback requirements shall apply to each sign for which a sign permit is required within the Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Neighborhood Model (NMD) zoning districts: The applicant would like all of the sign setbacks in this section waived as long as the County Engineer determines that the location would not compromise public health, safety, or welfare. The setbacks for each kind of sign are 5 feet, except for wall signs that share the setback of the building to which they are attached. The following waiver language is proposed: "in the Rivanna Village at Glenmore development the setback requirements of Section 4.5. 11 do not apply provided that the County Engineer has 16 determined that the proposed sign location would not compromise public health, safety, or welfare. " Staff Comment: Staff supports this waiver in recognition that the development is self- contained and that alternatives may be available that do not compromise safety. 4.16 RECREATION REGULATIONS The Zoning Ordinance contains this requirement: Developed recreational area(s) shall be provided for every development of thirty (30) units or more equal to or exceeding four (4) dwelling units per acre, except for single - family and two family dwellings developed on conventional lots. (Added 3 -5 -86) More specific requirements are as follows: 4.16.2 MINIMUM FACILITIES The following facilities shall be provided within the recreational area: 4.16.2.1 One (1) tot lot shall be provided for the first thirty (30) units and for each additional fifty (50) units and shall contain equipment which provides an amenity equivalent to: One (1) swing (four (4) seats) One (1) slide Two (2) climbers One (1) buckabout or whirl Two (2) benches. Substitutions of equipment or facilities may be approved by the director of planning and community development, provided they offer a recreational amenity equivalent to the facilities listed above, and are appropriate to the needs of the occupants. Each tot lot shall consist of at least two thousand (2,000) square feet and shall be fenced, where determined necessary by the director of planning and community development, to provide a safe environment for young children. 4.16.2.2 One -half (1/2) court for basketball shall be provided for each one hundred (100) units, consisting of a thirty (30) foot by thirty (30) foot area of four (4) inch 21 -A base and one and one half (1 1/2) inches bituminous concrete surface, and a basketball backboard and net installed at regulation height. 4.16.3.3 Recreational facilities shall be completed when fifty (50) percent of the units have received certificates of occupancy. The applicant would like to request that the requirement for these requirements to be waived because of the public park improvements being provided within the development which are different but are in excess of these requirements and because proffers for the park contain phasing which ensures that the park improvements will be constructed first in the development. Staff Comment: Staff supports the applicant's request to waiver the specific requirements of Sections 4.16, and 4.16.3.3. because the Code of Development contains park improvements in excess of those required for residential developments and because the proffers contain more restrictive phasing requirements. 4.17.4 LIGHTING STANDARDS The Zoning Ordinance requires: The following standards shall apply to each outdoor luminaire: 17 Each parcel, except those containing only one or more single - family detached dwellings, shall comply with the following: (Added 10- 17 -01) 1. The spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one -half ( %) foot candle. A spillover shall be measured horizontally and vertically at the property line or edge of right -of -way or easement, whichever is closer to the light source. 2. All outdoor lighting, regardless of the amount of lumens, shall be arranged or shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. The applicant would like to allow for spillover on the internal streets within the development to promote greater pedestrian activity at night. The proposed modification would read: 1. Except for street lights internal to the development of Rivanna Village at Glenmore, the spillover of lighting from luminaires onto public roads and property in residential or rural areas zoning districts shall not exceed one -half (%) foot candle. A spillover shall be measured horizontally and vertically at the property line or edge of right - of -way or easement, whichever is closer to the light source. For street lights permitted within Rivanna Village at Glenmore, VDOT standards shall be used to regulate public streets within the development. In addition, spillover along public streets internal to the development of Rivanna Village at Glenmore shall not exceed % foot - candle at the edge of the vehicle travelway which is the area between the parked cars and the travelway. 2. Except for street lights internal to the development of Rivanna Village at Glenmore, all outdoor lighting, regardless of the amount of lumens, shall be arranged or shielded to reflect light away from adjoining residential districts and away from adjacent roads. Staff Comment: Staff recommends approval of this waiver to encourage pedestrian activity at night in the mixed -use area. Waivers to Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 18, Section 5 5.1.16 SWIMMING, GOLF, TENNIS CLUBS The Zoning Ordinance requires the following: Each swimming, golf or tennis club shall be subject to the following: a. The swimming pool, including the apron, filtering and pumping equipment, and any buildings, shall be at least seventy -five (75) feet from the nearest property line and at least one hundred twenty -five (125) feet from any existing dwelling on an adjoining property, except that, where the lot upon which it is located abuts land in a commercial or industrial district, the pool may be constructed no less than twenty -five (25) feet from the nearest property line of such land in a commercial or industrial district; b. When the lot on which any such pool is located abuts the rear or side line of, or is across the street from, any residential district, a substantial, sightly wall, fence, or shrubbery shall be erected or planted, so as to screen effectively said pool from view from the nearest property in such residential district; C. (Repealed 6- 14 -00) d. The board of supervisors may, for the protection of the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community, require such additional conditions as it deems necessary, including but not limited to provisions for additional fencing and /or planting or other landscaping, additional setback from property lines, additional parking space, location and arrangement of lighting, and other reasonable requirements; e. Provision for concessions for the serving of food, refreshments or entertainment for club members and guests may be permitted under special use permit procedures. 18 The applicant requests different setbacks because a swimming and tennis club would be located wholly within the development. The requested variation reads: "Each swimming, golf or tennis club shall be subject to the following: a. The swimming pool, including the apron, filtering and pumping equipment, and any buildings, shall be at least one hundred seventy -five feet (175) feet from the closest property line that abuts the boundary of the Rivanna Village at Glenmore development and at least thirty (30) feet from any residential dwelling b. When the lot on which any such pool is located abuts the rear or side line of, or is across the street from, any residential district, a substantial, sightly wall, fence, or shrubbery shall be erected or planted, so as to screen effectively said pool from view from the nearest property in such residential district; d. Standards for swimming and tennis clubs are contained in the Rivanna Village at Glenmore Code of Development. e. Provision for concessions for the serving of food, refreshments or entertainment for club members and guests are regulated in the Rivanna Village at Glenmore Code of Development." Staff Comment: Staff recommends approval of this waiver as the swim club is intended for the residents of the development and would provide adequate protection for nearby residences. Waivers to Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 18, Section 32 32.7.9.6 STREET TREES The Zoning Ordinance requires that C. Street trees shall be planted with even spacing in a row adjacent to the public street right - of -way. The applicant has requested that street trees be allowed to be planted within or adjacent to the public street right -of -way as follows, "Street trees shall be planted with even spacing in a row within or adjacent to the public street right -of- way..." Staff Comment: The Neighborhood Model supports trees adjacent to the street which would necessitate that their placement be allowed within the public right -of -way. Staff recommends approval of the waiver. 32.7.9.8 SCREENING The Zoning Ordinance says the following: The following requirements shall apply to screening: C. Screening shall be required in the following instances: 1. Commercial and industrial uses shall be screened from adjacent residential and rural areas districts. (32.8.6.3.a, 7- 10 -85) 2. Parking lots consisting of four (4) spaces or more shall be screened from adjacent residential and rural areas districts. (32.8.6.3.b, 7- 10 -85; Amended 5 -1- 87) 3. Objectionable features including, but not limited to, the following uses shall be screened from adjacent residential and rural areas districts and public streets: - loading areas - refuse areas - storage yards - detention ponds 19 - recreational facilities determined to be of objectionable character by the agent other than children's play areas where visibility is necessary or passive recreation areas where visibility is desirable. The applicant would like to modify these requirements for clarification and to use the land within Rivanna Village at Glenmore more efficiently to provide density. The modification would read, "1. Within Rivanna Village at Glenmore, commercial and other non - residential uses shall not be required to be screened from adjacent residential uses." 2. Parking lots consisting of four (4) spaces or more shall be buffered from adjacent residential properties and public and private streets by use of a three (3) foot hedge, an opaque wall or fence of three (3) feet in height, or other features designed to reduce the visibility of parking lots from the street, adjacent residential uses or rural area districts. Vegetation provided to meet this requirement shall not be counted toward the interior landscaping requirement in Section 32 of the Zoning Ordinance. 3. Objectionable features including, but not limited to, the following uses shall be screened from adjacent residential and rural areas districts and public streets: - loading areas - refuse areas - storage yards - detention ponds - recreational facilities determined to be of objectionable character by the agent other than children's play areas where visibility is necessary or passive recreation areas where visibility is desirable through use of a hedge, opaque wall or fence at least one (1) foot taller than the highest part of the objectionable feature but no taller than six (6) feet 4. The agent may require screening of any use, or portion thereof, upon determination that the use would otherwise have a negative visual impact on a property listed on the Virginia Historic Landmarks Register." Staff Comment: Because of the internal orientation of the development, staff supports the alternative measures requested for screening and buffering of parking and objectionable features and recommends approval within the development. It does not recommend approval between the development and adjoining properties. 20 ATTACHMENT RESOLUTION WHEREAS, Proffer 2 of ZMA 1999 -016 ( Glenmore), originally accepted as a proffer for the rezoning of Glenmore in ZMA 1990 -019, states that, upon the request of the County made prior to April 12, 2010, the owner, Glenmore Associates, will donate approximately 27 acres of land to the County or its designee for a public school or other public use facilities as the County may select, together with an appropriate right of way; and WHEREAS, because the County has not requested that Glenmore Associates donate the land as described hereinabove, Proffer 2 of ZMA 1999 -016 has not yet been satisfied; and WHEREAS, Proffer 6 of ZMA 2001 -008 ( Rivanna Village at Glenmore) states that one of the owners, Glenmore Associates, will at its expense and at the request of the County, engineer, construct, and dedicate in fee simple to the County a park comprising approximately 18 acres, which will be platted with the first plat for Rivanna Village at Glenmore, and all of the park improvements described in the Code of Development will be built or bonded prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy for the 174th residential unit within Rivanna Village; and WHEREAS, the County desires the park proffered in Proffer 6 of ZMA 2001 -008 to serve the residents of Albemarle County; and WHEREAS, the land referred to in Proffer 2 of ZMA 1999 -016 is part of the land rezoned under ZMA 2001 -08 and, as a result of such rezoning, the land offered by Proffer 2 of ZMA 1999 -016 is no longer available for public facilities uses.
