Tarbell, Planner s• ( � Department of Planning & Community Development JUN 27 1990 Albemarle County 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, Virginia 22901 PLANNING DIVISION Re: Briarwood Dear Mr. Tarbell: Tom Muncaster met with Ron Keeler and yourself on June 25, 199E1 to discuss the phasing of Briarwood. Phase 2 was built first because the GE entrance was required. Phase I was indefinitely deferred. As Tom told you, the sanitary sewer has dictated subsequent phasing. We are currently working on Phase 3 and part of Phase which can be served by the existing gravity sewer. The Phase IV Preliminary Plat approved by the Planning Commission on March 27, 1990 is actually part of the original Phase 3 and Phase 7. Upon completion of Phase 3 and that part of Phase 7 which can be served by the existing gravity sewer, we intend to go back and build Phase I, which will be served by the existing sewer. Also Briarwood Drive will be constructed to Route 29 at that time. Briarwood Drive has already been dedicated to Route 29. The next logical progression is to bring the sewer up the river and do Phases 4, 5, 5 and the rest of 7 in that order in accordance with the original phasing plan. The rezoning requires two playgrounds, two primary recreation areas and one tot lot. One playground exists and the second is to be built with the 24 lots approved on March 27, 1990. The tot lot is to be built with the completion of Phase 3. The first primary recreation area will be built before starting Phase 5 and the final primary recreation area will be done in conjunction with the completion of Phase 7. Austin Drive will be built to Route 606 as a condition of the March 27, 1990 approval. That connection will provide two accesses in accordance with County policy. Considering that and the above information, we request relief from the rezoning requirement that Briarwood Drive be built to Route 29. That construction will be done when Phase I of Briarwood is completed. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Sincerely, Wendell W. Wood
