Dear Mr. Steigman,
This is to confirm our discussions from our meeting of March 26, 2013. The meeting
focused on public safety concerns and the development plans for the Haden Place
Development currently under construction in the Crozet area of Albemarle County,
Virginia. Those discussions led to compromises approved by the Albemarle County Fire
Rescue, Office of the Fire Marshal. The Office of the Fire Marshal agreed to these
compromises based on the advanced stage of the development and approval process,
legal advice from the Albemarle County Attorney's Office and the fact that the jointly
developed solutions reached at our meeting attempt to meet the intent of the Virginia
Statewide Fire Prevention Code. Those solutions were:
1. Designating the 14' wide, semi - circular, two -way traffic private alley that provides rear
access to all of the homes at Haden Place as a dual purpose for property access and
as a "Fire Lane" marked with approved permanent signage for "No Parking — Fire
Lane" in three (3) locations (at each entry from Haden Way and at the mid -point of the
alley behind Lot 20 /Lot 19).
2. Modification /reduction of the 8' wide median strip on the private street known as
Haden Place to 4' wide to effectively increase the one -way travel lane to 14' wide in
this section on either side of the median strip.

It was further agreed by the Albemarle Fire Rescue /Office of the Fire Marshal and
representatives of the Laden Place LLC, that so long as compliance with the submitted
site plans and with continued compliance with the modifications agreed to and listed
above, there is no further action in regards to the site plan for Haden Place planned by
the Albemarle Fire Rescue /Office of the Fire Marshal. This does not preclude action by
the Albemarle Fire Rescue /Office of the Fire Marshal in regards to future violations not
covered by the agreement reached at the meeting.
We welcomed the opportunity to work with you on this project and thank you for your
assistance in reaching a solution that will satisfy both our needs. We look forward to
working with you on future projects. If you have any concerns or questions, do not
hesitate to contact our office.
Sincerely Yours,
Division Chief
