Dear Community Development,
Attached is an application for a Letter of Determination for parcels 75-55 and 75-55C in
Albemarle County.
The project envisions a membership health spa with pool, saunas, steam rooms, and gym
facilities, with contemporary design and simple food and beverage.
The site will have parking and benefits from the recent improvements to the traffic interchange
at 29 South and 1-64.
The neighboring parcels are vacant, with the exception of the beverage distributer, Virginia
Eagle. Traffic for Virginia Eagle consists largely of delivery trucks leaving in the early morning
hours and returning at the end of the work day. The rest of the parcels are wooded and vacant
Parcels 75-55 and 75-55C are designated Neighborhood 5, Regional Mixed Use in the
Comprehensive Plan, and we believe this project to be consistent with the spirit and intent of
the Plan. We believe the project will create a unique asset for the County that highlights the
character of the place while having limited impact on existing features and uses in the area.
It was communicated to us in an email from Community Development staff that the project fit
the Health Spa use, and we are looking for a letter confirming this determination.
Thank you for your time
Best,
Derek Sieg
