Home My WebLink AboutCPA201800006 Staff Report 2023-01-24 (4)CPA 2018-06: Birdwood Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan Southern and Western I jrban Neighborhoods Master Plan Board of Supervisors Public Hearing 'MN March 20, 2019 I'll provide a staff report summary of this County -initiated CPA ... • Provide background information about this planning process and the Birdwood property; • Describe proposed amendments to the S+W Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan; • Briefly address the separate review process for the proposed "Birdwood Mansion and Grounds" project; and • Provide staff recommendations. Background: Planning Process • Background— Planning Process: • This process originates with the University of Virginia and the UVA Foundation's completion of a propertywide "Birdwood Master Plan" in 2018. • That Master Plan was used as the basis for the "Birdwood Area B Study," which was a product of collaboration between the UVA Foundation and County staff. • PACC eventually endorsed the concepts in this Area B Study in September 2018. • Concurrently, the County initiated this CPA process through a PC Resolution of Intent (April 2018). • County staff then drew upon elements of the PACC-endorsed Area B Study to craft the proposed Comp Plan Amendments to the Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan. • So far, this process has included work sessions with the PC (Nov. 13, 2018) and BOS (Jan. 16, 2019). • The PC then conducted a public hearing and recommended approval on Feb. 12. 2 c4 i + ) I �--�-------- —_ `—__—.-- S+W Master Plan: F— YA— l uM A Figure 2 / page ri • Background: Property Information: • Birdwood is a 544-acre property in the Development Area. • It is owned by the University of Virginia Foundation. • Birdwood is also located within "Area B" — and is therefore subject to the "Planning and Coordination Council" (PACC) joint planning agreement between the University of Virginia, the City of Charlottesville, and Albemarle County. 3 1MID! !.'Ord MOM' - ,.. i Al14 IV g IN • The Future Land Use Plan designates the majority of Birdwood primarily for "Institutional" future land uses. • Also, "Parks and Green Systems" designations exist on the undeveloped southern portions of Birdwood. • Under this proposed Comp Plan Amendment, these particular designations would remain unchanged. 12 Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan • Instead of changing the future land use designation, this proposed CPA would primarily involve amendments to the text in the "Future Land Use — Other Areas of Importance" subsection, which highlights the Birdwood property and contains more detailed recommendations and guidelines about future land uses.

The proposed CPA language also maintains what could be described as a 11placeholder" section for longer -range future uses and development ... this is important, because: it distinguishes the Foundation's near -future plans (contained in the Area B Study) from any hypothetical longer -range future plans; and also because reserving the possibility of additional future uses seems appropriate for such a large property within the Development Area Amended Figure 9 • Additionally, the small diagram for this "Other Area of Importance" would also be amended to: • Depict the new, permanent vehicular interconnection; and • Allude to conceptual opportunities for potential future bike/ped connections, shared use paths, and other potential modes of connectivity to the south. The general intent is to update the vision for this "Other Area of Importance" to reflect the main concepts contained in the Area B Study that was recently endorsed by PACC... • But, to clarify: this CPA would establish the Birdwood Mansion project as an appropriate future land use at a conceptual level, only. • A thorough, detailed review of this proposed project would need to occur separately -- and in fact, this is process already underway ... 7 Site Plan (Long -Range Planning) ZMA-2018.00014 "Birdwood Mansion and Grounds" (Current Development Review) • This diagram illustrates how there are two concurrent, but separate review processes: this long-range planning process, and a current development review process : • The UVA Foundation has submitted a ZMA application for this proposed "Birdwood Mansion and Grounds" project. • I want to highlight this separate ZMA review process, because project -specific details for the proposed `Birdwood Mansion and Grounds" project will be evaluated and reviewed in full detail during the ZMA review process. • This would include careful reviews of issues such as historic preservation, transportation, and other critical details... • The proposed project would also be subject to subsequent site plan reviews by the Site Review Committee and the Architectural Review Board. • And approval of a Water Protection Ordinance Plan would likely be required, as well. MAdditional ZMA details (if necessary): • This ZMA application (submitted on October 29), is the result of extensive communication between the Foundation and CDD going back to 2017. The application proposes a rezoning of a small portion of the Birdwood property adjoining Ivy Road / US 250 from R1 Residential to HC Highway Commercial • This project includes substantial proffers, to voluntarily prohibit certain uses and to also update the Foundation's existing commitment to conduct traffic analyses at two specified times in the intermediate future. • Currently, the previous legislative approvals for the Birdwood property established a requirement for the Foundation to conduct traffic analyses at 12 months and 24 months after the permanent opening of the connector road. • The proposed proffers included with this ZMA application would update that commitment to conduct the traffic analyses at 12 months and 36 months (but not at 24 months). CPA-2018-06: Recommendations Staff recommends that the Board follow the Plaiming Commission's recommendation to adopt the CPA Resolution to amend the Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan. • So, returning our focus to die subject of this public hearing, the CPA: • Staff recommends that the Board follow die Planning Commission's recommendation to adoptthe CPA Resolution to ainend die Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan. 0 • CPA201800006 (draft) language: • Provides an updated summary of existing uses • Reorganizes information and provides additional details • Introduces the concept of reusing the historic Birdwood Mansion for events and hospitality, with qualifying language about the necessity of historic preservation and context sensitive design • Maintains a placeholder section for longer -range future uses and development • (distinguishes the Foundation's near -future plans contained in the Area B Study from any hypothetical longer -range future plans) • (reserving the possibility of additional future uses seems appropriate for such a large property within the Development Area) • (uses the existing language, with some minor edits to reduce ambiguity; for example, replace "may" with "could potentially") 10 e�wYma�,l�f.R.l.
