RE: SP201400005 — Regents School of Charlottesville (RSC)
Dear Ms. Palumbo:
The Albemarle County Planning Commission, at its meeting on June 3, 2014, by a vote of 7:0
recommended denial of the above -noted petition to the Board of Supervisors.
Please note that this recommendation is based on the following conditions:
Unfavorable factors:
1. Increased persons at the facility would create unsafe access conditions due to excessive delay times
exiting the property in the morning hours. An acceptable alternative access strategy is needed to
remedy the safety concerns with ingress and egress to the site.
2. It is debatable as to whether the proposed increase in enrollment would constitute a small -scale use
as recommended in the Rural Areas Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan.
Within 30 days of the date of this letter, please do one of the following:
(1) Resubmit in response to Planning Commission recommendations
(2) Request indefinite deferral
(3) Request that your Board of Supervisors public hearing date be set
(4) Withdraw your application
If you should have any questions or comments regarding the above noted action, please do not hesitate to
contact me at (434) 296 -5832.
Sincerely,
Christopher P. Perez
