Mr. Tucker said the Airport Authority owns almost 200 acres of property
adjacent to the Airport and west of the runway itself next to Earlysville
Forest Subdivision. Staff has learned that this property is infested with the
Southern pine Bark Beetle and the forested area will have to be removed. The
Earlysville Forest Homeowner's Association has been notified of this matter.
This area will become a fire hazard if the trees are not removed. The area
will be reforested probably with Loblolly pine this winter. Staff is review-
ing the possibility of planting White Pines along the boundary of Earlysville
Forest to act as a better buffer. The Airport Authority will pay for this.
Mr. Tucker said earlier this week he received a letter from Mr. Dick
Lockwood, VDoT's Transportation Engineer in Richmond. He was asked to appoint
members from the County to two committee's being formed; a Policy Committee on
the Route 29 N Corridor Development Study, and a Technical Advisory Committee.
He plans to appoint Wayne Cilimberg, the County's Director of Planning and
Community Development, to the Technical Advisory Committee. He suggested Mr.
Bowerman be appointed to the Steering Policy Committee. There was a consensus
of the Board that Mr. Bowerman serve on the Policy Steering Committee.
Mr. Perkins said he has been requested by Todd Shields that this Board
reconsider its denial of ZMA-93-09 and SP-93-20, AdventureLand Family Fun
Park. He indicates that he would be willing to amend the request from HC to
C-1, commercial, which also allows this use.

At the eptember 1, 1993 the Board considered a number of recommendations from the Planning
Commission on affordable housing issues. The Board requested staff submit a recommendation
for the creation of the temporary Building Code Review Committee whose tasks would be to:
o Identify opportunities for cost reduction now allowed by the code and not
generally practiced and;
o Identify possible changes to the code that could be recommended to the Regulatory
Efficiency Advisory Committee (REAC) in Richmond.
There ould also be an effort to educate and make the building community aware of the
finding and there would also be a dollar estimate of the impact of any recommended changes.

his parcel is entitled to associated development rights. This determination results
n the same number of parcels as is shown with a parcel number on the County tax
a s. It is my opinion that there are no additional parcels.
rrhis determination considered the descriptive clauses of the deed, which delineate and
~numerate the property as consisting of "all that certain tract or parcel of land...
fbout six miles northwest of Free Union on State Route 601 containing 408.1 acres,
ore or less ..." This consideration is based on the findings of the VA Supreme Court
n the case, Faison v. Union Camp 224 VA 54.
he most recent deed of record as of the date of adoption of the Zoning Ordinance
IS found in Deed Book 663, Page 176. It is dated January 12, 1979, from J. Howard
nd Johanna M. Staley, to Sanderstead Investment Inc. The previous deed with plat
f T.W. Saudners, is dated June 12, 13 and 14, 1963 and is of record in Deed Book
89, Page 365. The 1963 deed also employs the descriptive language all that certain
ract or parcel of land. The attached plat shows the cumulative acreage with outside
oundaries and no internal previous parcel lines.

Charlottesville, Virginia 22901
Dear David:
Thank you for your recent letter regarding
H.R. 1181, to increase the rate for
payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILT).
As you know, H.R. 1181 would increase the
rate of PILT reimbursement from $0.75 to $1.65 per
acre. Albemarle County would receive approximately
$13,180 in additional PILT funds, based upon the
14,644 federal acres in the county.
However, any change in the PILT program
would disproportionately benefit western states
where the federal government owns large tracts of
federal land. The total cost of the program would
explode, from $140 million to $308 million.
Increasing the rate for PILT would require a
like decrease in other spending from the Land and
Water Conservation Fund, increased user fees or an
increase in taxes. If the last option were
utilized, then it would cost the taxpayers of
Albemarle approximately $45,879 based upon a per
capita collection method. Under this scenario, the
Albemarle taxpayers would send $32,699 to other
areas in addition to the $13,180 that they
contribute to Albemarle County.

I do not believe it is in the best interest
of the Commonwealth of Virginia to finance such a
large increase in spending with relatively small
benefit for the Commonwealth.
Although I cannot support this legislation
at this time, I hope you will continue to contact
me in the future if I can be of assistance.

COUNTY FAIR INC APPLICANT . ROY , BONNIE
s
C
tition: The Albemarle County Fair petitions to operate the
unty Fair on 70I acres zoned RA, Rural Areas [10.2.2(42)].
operty, described as Tax Map 99, Parcel 61 (part), is located
the south side of Route 760 approximately 0.3 miles west of
e Route 29/Route 760 intersection in the Samuel Miller
gisterial District. This area is recommended for Village
sidential (maximum 1 dwelling unit per acre) in the village of
rth Garden.
Area: This site is a vacant field. Two high
ltage power lines cross this site. The North Fork of the
rdware River defines the southern boundary of the area to be
veloped. A small ridge rises from Route 760 and drops gently
wards the river. The site is effectively screened from Route
o by the ridge.
licant's Pro osal: The applicant is seeking approval of this
rmit for a period of 30 years. The permit is intended to allow
r the operation of the Albemarle County Fair for six days a
are
a and Recommendation: Staff has reviewed this request for
mpliance with Sections 31.2.4.1 and 5.1.27 of the Zoning
dinance and recommends denial.
P annin and Zonin None is available for this
p operty. The Albemarle County Fair currently has a special use
p rmit for a fair in the North Garden area originally approved in
1 88.
C m rehensive Plan: The site is designated as part of the North
G rden Village Growth Area, but is zoned RA, Rural Areas. (In
t is area, the South Branch of the North Fork Hardware River is
t e Growth Area boundary.) The Comprehensive Plan recommends
s pport for the agricultural/forestal industry through
p omotional activities (Objective, p. 55). The County fair is a
j risdictional type of promotion for the agricultural and
f restal industry.
1
1,
e Comprehensive Plan (Open Space Plan) recommends protection of
e South Branch of the North Fork Hardware River, which is
signated a major Stream Valley with associated floodplain and
tlands. The South Branch is a perennial stream with Watershed
source Protection Area buffer areas required. Wetlands are
cated along the stream, and in the southwest area of the site.
historic site (Glen Esk house and cemetery) is visible to the
uth. site limitations include some critical slopes, and
s allow depth to rock soil (Ashe) located along the 50 foot
r'ght-of-way and east of the septic system area. (Issues of
p eservation of areas identified in the Open Space Plan should be
a dressed at the time of site plan review).
ere may be a conflict between a fairground facility located in
Growth Area and adjacent residential use due to traffic, dust,
ise, lighting, hours of operation, etc. Whether these concerns
d issues could be adequately addressed for a permanent
ear-round) or temporary (6 days a year) fairgrounds facility
cated within a Growth Area would depend upon the
aracteristics of the site, the scale of the facility, and the
ientation of uses, buffers, etc. "Residential uses are
nerally inappropriate immediately adjacent to non-residential
es except as follows. with screening or buffering, residential
es are appropriate adjacent to neighborhood scale commercial
es and smaller scale community and public facilities." (p.
6) .
e location of a fairgrounds within a Growth Area does provide
en space, but also occupies area designated for residential
e. This use of land in a designated growth area for a non-
sidential use removes holding capacity from the Growth Area.
is loss should be balanced against the benefits provided by the
irgrounds. It is questionable that a temporary fairgrounds
th limited operations is providing benefits which offset this
ss of holding capacity.
AFP COMMENT:
o access proposals have been reviewed by staff. The first
tion is no longer proposed by the applicant. In this proposal
ft turns from Route 29 onto Route 760 would be prohibited (by
mporary barriers and/or manual enforcement). Fair traffic
uld travel to Route 710, turning left onto Route 710 (Police
npower would be needed to control left turns here by stopping
e northbound land periodically to allow for the turning
vements). Traffic would then turn left onto Route 760 which
uld be limited to one-way traffic back to Route 29 (see
tached map showing directional arrows).
2
I,
T~e second option which is favored by the applicant involves use
OF the Route 29/Route 760 crossover for ingress and egress to the
f~ir site. Route 760 would be surface treated from the fair
e~trance to Route 29. Route 760 would remain a two way road
d~ring the fair. (Attachment I)
Dl~ring the initial review in 1987/88 for the County Fair for its
p. esent location, staff prepared an analysis of traffic generated
b the fair. staff has revised those traffic generation figures
t4~ account for the increase in attendance that has occurred over
tl~e years. (The latest figures indicate that attendance is
a)~proximately 25,000 visitors.)
(r~raffic estimates assume three people/vehicle.)

D\e to the substantial volume of traffic anticipated to be
gEnerated by this use the Virginia Department of Transportation
('DOT) has provided extensive comments (Attachment D). The
Pclice Department has also provided comment (Attachment E). The
Pclice Department has stated generally that any plan adopted to
access this site can be achieved by the use of manpower.
Hcwever, the police department has reservations regarding the use
01 this site for a fair due to access issues. staff has met with
VI~T and is of the opinion that no alternatives exist which would
alleviate the problems identified by VDOT.
Should the first option be utilized, VDOT has recommended certain
read improvements. The improvements to the road network
recommended by VDOT would improve the position of this request.
He~ever, these improvements do not overcome VDOT's objection to
this request.
3
~
e second option, the option favored by the applicant, has many
of the same negatives anticipated to occur if the first option is
u ed. However, the second option also has the possibility of
affecting the Route 70S/Route 29 crossover.
B sed on VDOT comments, staff opinion is that this request does
n t comply with the supplemental regulations contained in Section
5.1.27 (Attachment F). Based on VDOT comments, staff opinion is
t at the access issues are insurmountable and this petition
s ould be denied on this basis alone.
additional comments, staff offers the following:
itially, the applicant's proposal would involve no permanent
cilities other than those required for electricity, water and
ptic systems. Long term plans propose construction of pole
rns and possibly other permanent structures. Conditions of
proval limit permanent structures without amendment of this
rmit. Staff notes that the land outside of the floodplain is
oping and development of permanent structures will likely
quire a site plan satisfying the full requirements of the
dinance to ensure that development is suitable to the terrain.
e applicant proposes to utilize tractor trailers for the
orage of fair equipment on-site. The Zoning Administrator has
p ovided the following comments regarding this proposed activity:
"The trailer storage would not be permitted if they are
'inoperative vehicles'. I assume that the trailers
themselves are not. The Zoning Ordinance does not address
this type of trailer while it does address office trailers,
residential trailers and recreational trailers. It is
unlikely that there is an intention to include'such a use on
a general basis. However; absent a specific prohibition of
such, it is possible for the Board to provide for such."
e Board of Supervisors should specifically address this issue
any approval action by either specifically permitting or
ohibiting the use.
e sketch plan submitted by the applicant proposes amusement
des within an area designated as the 100 year floodplain. The
ning Administrator has provided comment on this proposed
tivity:
"It is my op1n10n that the rides are not permitted within
the floodplain. Section 30.3.4 lists prohibited uses which
include 'storage of gasoline ... and other such materials
4
I,
which could result in hazard to life and/or water pollution
in the event of flooding' and 'storage of machinery...' It
might be difficult to move the rides as needed to avoid a
flood event, particularly with saturated soils."
U~e of the area for corrals or riding rings would be permitted.
S~aff notes that the fair site will be visible from several
(~pproximately 6-8) dwellings due to the terrain in the North
Gflrden area.
Fpr the reasons stated by VDOT, staff is unable to recommend
approval of this request. staff notes that the fair has an
e~isting location which does not generate the severe traffic
p~oblems anticipated by the use of the proposed site. staff also
nptes that the existing fair site is relatively flat as opposed
tp the proposed site. staff has identified the differences in
t~e proposed fair site with the existing fair site as evidence
t~at more suitable areas for a fair exist than the proposed site.
S~aff recommends denial of SP-93-23. Should the Board of
S~pervisors choose to approve this request, staff recommends the
fPllowing conditions based on use of the second access option
f~vored by the applicant:
:a: SCOMMENDED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
1 Such events shall be limited to six consecutive days
excluding Sunday. Hours of operation shall be limited to
4:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9:00 a.m.

fair is open to the public and shall not include set up,
dismantling and restoration activities.) This permit is
issued for the conduct of the Albemarle County Fair by the
Albemarle County Fair, Incorporated, and shall not be used
for any other event requiring special use permit pursuant to
Section 10.2.2.42 and 5.1.27 of the Zoning Ordinance;
2 The applicant shall notify the Albemarle County Police
Department, Virginia Department of Health, and servicing
fire and rescue squads 60 days prior to each event and shall
make adequate arrangements for the conduct of the event with
each of these agencies;
3 Traffic management shall be approved annually by the
Albemarle County Police Department, Virginia Department of

SP-93-23 Albemarle County Fair
Keeler:
Jeff Hores the District Traffic Engineer for VDOT attended a
ent meeting at the Albemarle County Planning Department on
sday, August 17 to discuss the above subject.
following points are reiterated in emphasis of ,the adversity
proposed site and this office1s objection to the-'site for the
emarle County Fair:
existing site on the west side of Route 29 accessed from
te 692 has had its share of operational problems in the past
ch were discussed at the meeting. The Albemarle County Sheriff's
artment representative explained the complications which occurred
mitigative measures are constantly under consideration in an
empt to improve the situations in the next fair.
h the queueing occurring at this site when the traffic maneuvers
olve right turns, the proposed site will experience much more
si nificant queueing with the re9uired left turn maneuvers. To
fo ce this significant increase ~n traffic across two lanes of
Ro te 29 will require extensive traffic control and place the officers
on duty in very precarious positions.
it exists, the southbound lett-turn lane on Route 29 at its
ersection with Route 710 is grossly inadequate for the increased
tfic use during and around the t1~e ot the Albemarle county Fair.
only will this intersection fail during the periods the fair is
operation, but the turn lane is inadequate for periods when the
ipment and deliveries are arriving.
hough a temporary revision to the traffic pattern has been proposed,
facilities on to which traffic is being forced are not adequate to
omodate the additional vehicles. Route 710, with its, 'relative short
gth will be completely saturated and the only.. storage available
1 be across the two northbound Route 29-lanes and up the southbound

nes which will cause complications for northbound as well as
uthbound traffic.
additional concern involves the several residences along these
condaries which not onl~ will temporarily lose access for them-
lves, but will also be ~naccessible for emergency vehicles should
situation arise which require such services. Further complicating.
tters, any emergency situations arising on fairgrounds which
quire such services will be further jeopardized by the inability
the emergency services to quickly respond. With Route 760 being
ly 8 to 10 If., any vehicles queued will have no place to move
order to allow the emergency VGhicles thr~ugh.
. . '
ute 760 is currently an 8' to 10' gravel road and is structurally
well a geometricly insufficient for this proposal. Although the
oposal claims that the site will be used exclusively for the fair
ce per year, past experiences indicate that once the site is
proved for one event, it is more than likely that the owners will
e it for numerous events throughout the year.
rther complicating matters, the access driveway has a significant
ade into the proposed site along with a 180 degree ti~ht-radius
rn which will be difficult to maneuver under normal c~rcumstances.
the sheriff's department indicated, the critical operation to
nimize queueing is the entry and parking of vehicles at the access
into It is imperative that vehicles enter quickly in order to
nimize queueing. This will be impossible with the access involved.
addition to the adverse physical characteristics of this operation,
dications of past failures to quickly park vehicles once on fair
ounds confirm concerns with the queueing of traffic an the breakdown
all roadways involved.
. Fritz indicated that his dep~rtment may not recommend approval ot
is site and will approach the Board ot Supervisors with his as well
VDOT's concerns. In discussing his strategy for presentation, .
· Fritz indicated that he will inform the Board that no improvements
the existing system will accomodate the problems anticipated should
is site be approved. In past experiences, scenarios similar as this
ve been passed by local government authorities despite excellent cases
a1nst such proposals by their own statf. Should this proposal recieve
a proval by the Board without required improvements, it may jeopardize
t e Department's position and place the burden of attempting to make the
s te work on the Department. It is recommended that Mr. Fritz enter the
p esentation to strongly -recommend against such approval, but be
p epared to impose requirements in order that the Department not become
f nancially responsible for the problems anticipated. If the Board
r alizes that approval would require the County to improve the area
r ads, such approval might seem less attractive from the beginning. The
f llowing should be the least required. If your section has further
r quirements,please add them.

ear Mr. Fritz:
This office has reviewed the alternative access for the
lbemarle County Fair site which consist of utilizing the Route
60/ Route 29 intersection instead ot the originally proposed Route
10/ Route 29 intersection, and then Route 760. The Department
till has basically the same Concerns that it had with the original
roposal.
We recommend that this site not be approved based on the
ollowing:
· We concur that this alternative will involve use of the
rossover on Route 29/Route 760 which has limited stacking ability
ue to the bridge on Route 29. In addition, the intersection of
oute 70S/ Route 29 may be adversely affected by traffic generated
y the Fair.
· Even with the improvements, Route 760 will be geometrically
nsufficient for this proposal. The proposed widening to 16'
oas not meet the current design standard of 18' for a rural local
oad.
. As discussed earlier with the original proposal, the eXisting
air site on the west side of Route 29 accessed from Route 692 had
perational problems due to queuing stemming from both right and
eft turns. Since traffic will be access from Route 29, these
roblems will also be relevant to the proposed site. .'
· As it exists, the southbound left-turn lane on Route 29 at its
ntersection with Rout. 760 is inadequate for the increased traftic
se during and around the time ot the County Fair. Also I the turn
ane is inadequate for periods when the equipment and deliveries
re arriving.

T FIC CONTROL FOR PROPOSED ALBEMARLE
C UNTY FAIR SITE
V.S.H. 760 off U.S 29 S.
R D HILL COMMUNITY
The Albemarle County Fair Inc. has'proposed to locate the fair
a parcel of land off V.S.H. 760 between U.S. 29 and V.S.H. 710.
The Fair proposes that
tersection of V.S.H. 710.
tersection of V.S.H. 760,
the fair grounds.
fair goers will leave U.S. 29 at the
They will proceed on V.S.H. 710 to the
left on to V.S.H. 760 to the entrance
The exit from the fair grounds will be separate from the
e trance. Exiting traffic will turn right on to V.S.H. 760 and
oceed toward U.S. 29.
.
The plan calls for V.S.H. 760 to be made into a one-way
r adway during the operational hours of the fair.
The southbound fair traffic on'U.S. 29 will have to be routed
to the left southbound lane. The fair traffic will have to make
left turn off U.S. 29, across the northbound lanes into V.S.H.
7 O. The personnel needed to control traffic at this intersection
w'll require two (2) teams of two (2) police officers. One team on
p st and the other off on a rotating basis.
The traffic turning off u.s. 29 south bound into V.S.H. 710
w.l1 cause delays in the north bound flow of traffic on U.S. 29.
V hicles approaching north bound on U.S. 29 that desire to turn
r.ght onto V.S.H 710 to go to the fair grounds will cause other
d lays for the south bound fair goers. .
V.S.H 710 east of U.S. 29 is a narrow, paved, secondary road
ssing through a residential area. I am aware that the area is
nedagricultural. The turn from V.S.H 710 into V.S.H. 760 is a
11.90 degree turn into a narrow gravel road.
I ATTACHMENT E I 'page 3
Pa
.
V.S.H. 760 is a narrow gravel road with a thirty foot right of
wa and approximately 15 feet of travel surface. The side ditches
ar fairly deep leaving no shoulder for vehicles to use. V.S.H 760
wi 1 have to be made a one way roadway. This would require signage
at each driveway entrance on V.S.H. 760 to control access to V.S.H.
76. To control access to V.S.H. 760 at the intersection of u.s.
29 will require two (2) teams of two (2) police officers. These
te ms would be one team on post and one off post in rotation. One
of icer of the team will have to control the prohibition of left
tu n from u.s. 29 south bound to V.S.H.760. One officer will be
ne ded to insure the prohibition of not turning right from north
bo nd u.s. 29. The officers at this intersection will also have to
as ist motorists leaving the fair that want to make a left turn to
go south u.s. 29. This movement will have to constantly monitored.
Th sight distance north on the south bound lane is not the best
du to the different elevation of the lanes of u.s. 29. The cones
an barrels used to close the south bound left turn lane to V.S.H.
76 lane would further reduce visibility.
The officer assigned to highway patrol will need to work from
.H. 745 south intersection with u.s. 29 to V.S.H. 711
ersection with u.s. 29.
.
The fair grounds parking crew will have to maintain six (6)
ca s per minute into the parking lot. There is a back up storage
on V.S.H. 760 and 710 of about 100 cars. Traffic back up on u.s.
29 in the south bound left lane could be very hazardous. The left
la e is normally the passing or faster traffic lane.
The present fair site has a lead of twenty five (25) to thirty
(3 ) cars off u.s. 29. The parking lot crew's performance during
vious fairs has not been able to'keep the flow sufficient to
p a back up off u.s. 29. The back up on u.s. 29 at the present
e occurs in the right lane or the slower vehicle lane. Traffic
backed up as far as V.S.H. 710 in the south bound lane.
The approach to the traffic control point south bound has a
Ii ited sight distance. Drivers approaching are in a curve to the
ri ht, the intersection of V.S.H. 708, and the Hardware River
Br'dge.
The approach to the traffic control point north bound is a
g upgrade to a hillcrest. The drivers north bound have ah!gh
cent age of traveling more than five (5) miles per hour over the
ted speed limit. This has been evidenced by the number of
ffic summons issued for speeding during previous fairs. The
th bound drivers are approaching a hillcrest before they can see
icers controlling traffic.

The traffic to and from the present fair site is a major task
h a right turn for the most of the vehicles off u.S. 29. The
ffic to and from the proposed site will be an even larger task
to the majority of the vehicles 'turning left across the north
nd lanes of U.S. 29.
The exiting vehicles from the proposed site should flow fairly
I with the majority turning right off V.S.H. 760 on to go north
nd U.S. 29. The problem will come with the vehicles that want
go south on u.S. 29 and those that go to V.S.H. 708 and turn
t to west V.S.H. 708. The vehicles wanting the go south on U.S.
will have to be controlled by the assigned officers.
The standard dates for the Albemarle County fair are t;he
sday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday prior to'Labor
on Monday. This means that on Friday evening all those
veling on U.S. 29 for the holiday weekend have to pass the
ffic control points and add to the traffic congestion.

Traffic Control for Proposed Albemarle
County Fair Site
V.S.H. 760 off U.S. 29 S.
Red Hill community
The Albemarle County Fair Inc. has proposed to locate the fair
on a parcel of land on V.S.H. 760 off u.S. 29.
The original proposal called for one way traffic on V.S.H. 760
between V.S.H. 710 and U.S. 29 during the operating hours of the
fair. The traffic control plan was done to provide for one way
traffic on V.S.H. 760.
The site Search Committee has submitted another idea for
entrance access to the site. This calls for the upgrade of V.S.H.
760 from u.S. 29 to a point just beyond the fair entrance. The new
idea would have two way traffic on V.S.H. 760 with the major
traffic control point at it's intersection with u.S. 29.
The new plan would have fair bound traffic entering V.S.H. 760
at it's intersection with U. S. 29. This will require two (2) teams
of two (2) officers to control traffic due to the volume of left
turn traffic, from u.S. 29 to V.S.H. 760.
I do not see from the proposal that the turn lane south bound
on U. S. 29 would be extended or the differential of elevation
between the lanes of u.S. 29 being leveled.
The intersection. of V.S.H. 708 is on several hundred feet
north of the intersection of V.S.H. 760. This would have a
blocking effect on V.S.H. 708 when traffic backs up on u.S. 29
waiting to turn.
The Albemarle Sheriff's Office personnel did an excellent job
of the parking lot for the past fair. They still had several back
ups onto u.S. 29. I agree the back ups did not last as long and
traffic moved better than it has in the past.
T
T T
'ATTACHMENT E II Page 6/3
. ,
Page Two:
The back up when it occurs will be in the left or high speed
lane and will be more of a danger to motorists by being in the left
lane. -
The intersection at u.s. 29 and V.S.H. 710 would still require
traffic control due to motorists using the unimproved portion of
V.S.H. 760. There will be some who will still come from V.S.H. 760
south of the fair entrance to gain access to the fair.
The personnel requirements for the modified plan will be same
as for the orginial plan.

Charlottesville.
No event shall extend for a period longer than that
provided by the board of supervisors in the conditions
of the special use permit. A separate special use
permit shall be required for each event.
Special use permits may be issued by the board of
supervisors pursuant to this section, upon finding:
.
a.
That the public roads serving the site are
adequate to accommodate the traffic which would
be expected to be generated by such event;
b.
That the character of such use will be in
harmony with the public health, safety and
welfare, and uses permitted by right in the
district and will not be of substantial detriment
to adjacent property in terms of smoke, dust,
noise, hours of operation, artificial lighting
or other specific identifiable conditions which
may be deleterious to the existing uses of such
property.
Except as the board of supervisors may expressly add
or delete conditions in a particular case, each such
permit shall be sUbject to the following conditions:
a. A preliminary plan showing access, parking,
vehicular and pedestrian circulation, and method
of separation of the same shall be approved

RE : Request of the county fair board for a use permit to operate a fair on
the Coggins' property with entrance off of Rt 760 in North Garden.
On 8/25 my wife and I attended a presentation by members of the fair
board regarding their intentions to purchase land for a permanent fair site.
We have attended the fair in the past and have enjoyed doing so. We
appreciate the quality that has developed over the years. It appears to us
that these are well intentioned people who have not done enough homework
and presented mixed messages to the public. We believe that the proposal
should be rejected on a number of grounds, a few of which can readily be
seen.
.
1] Traffic last year backed up 29 North from the Batesville road to near Rt
711 at times. To propose moving the traffic off Rt 29 to go East on Rt
710; thence North on Rt 760 would require police to handle the backup
on Rt 29 with a too short left turn lane for a large volume on a 55mph
road and to cross the Northbound lane which has little distance vision
for a Northbound traveler approaching Rt 710. To talk of stacking two
lanes of traffic on Rt 760 as was announced at the meeting flies in the
face of evidence. Rt 760 is a gravel non tolerable road varying in
width from 8 to 10 feet and has sharp curves near the proposed
entrance to the Coggins property. When I travel that route to go to
Charlottesville and meet a car coming South, I pull to the side near
the ditch and allow them to pass [slowly]. Drivers being of all range of
abilities I would not willingly want to be passed while in line by many
cars some of whom will be in a hurry to arrive one car length earlier. In
terms of line of sight it were better to enter Rt 760 from the North end,
but many problems would still remain.
.
2] Clogging this road could effectively shut off fire and emergency
protection from the residents of the road and the fairground. To offer
the hope of Pegasus would be to go after a groundhog with an elephant
gun. I donI know what the reaction of the pilots would be to the high
tension lines that cross the property under discussion. This does assume
that Pegasus would always be on standby for this service - not too likely
to be the case. .

3] - To say that the carnival rides would be set up in the flood plain with
their own electrical generators raises other questions: Fuel stored to
run the generators on a flood plain is a probable no - no, as would be the
Carny trailers unless their tractors remained attached.
4] Despite repeated promises to run only one event per year a little over
two weeks with setup and teardown times, one can only expect the worst.
Granted that these are sincere people with community interest at heart,
they are still proposing to finance all but $30,000 of a $175,000 price
tag over 15 years. Over the years ahead economic conditions may change
which could be for the worse for the board. They will likely have new
members over the years. They could comeback with a proposal for
another expo land. This is otten the way in situations like this one.
Atter all, the boards and the citizens would like the fair to continue.
.
5] The land the Coggins wish to sell is the worst part of the former Mays
farm. I suppose they would love to sell it. The price asked does not
appear to have been lowered for community benefit. With the negatives of
high tension lines {listen to WINA fry while passing underneath] and a
flood plain and an entrance on a non tollerable road with limited view
from either direction, the land has limited uses.
Perhaps the county would benefit with future growth of a fair site into an
expo type location. Kennel club shows, scout jamborees, etc are examples
that come to mind among other possible uses. Clearly this is not the site
to allow for this to happen. It is not a proper site for the two + weeks of
the fair operation. It would be a shame to abuse the local residents most
affected by this proposal and prematurely lock the county into a operation
which could be placed elsewhere to better effect for all concerned. When
one sees flat farmland with good line of sight that is for sale off of Rt 712
headed toward South Garden, one can assume price may be a problem.
However, better sites are available and some creative thinking is
indicated. There are proQably public spirited citizens available with
expertise to share if only they are asked. The local newspaper suggests,
the board could use some help.
.
The board members. presentation did not help their case: too many
contraditions. When these were pointed out, they repeatedly said they
would do what VDOT told them to do. I think you know VDOT would never
advocate passage of this proposal, but will be willing to try to make the
best of a bad job if the request is passed.

It seems a shame to request a vote against a group of well intentioned
people trying to do some good for the community, but wise parents have to
do that a lot during childrearing years. It does not mean we love them any
the less. Its just part of the job.

D ar Mr. Bowerman,
I would like to bring to your attention a serious problem
c ncerning the proposed County Fair site off route 760 in North
G rden.
Since I live in North Garden, I am fully aware of the traffic
i pact on route 29 that this location would bring. The
i tersections of Route 708 and 29 and Route 710 and 29 would
b come unsafe bottlenecks which would negatively impact
N rth-South travelers on Route 29 and negatively affect the
p ople of North Garden.
I question the wisdom of selecting a site which would so
n gatively affect a major artery such as Route 29.
I strongly urge you to vote against this site due to its
n gative impact on Route 29.
Also, once there is a permanent site owned be the county, it
i only natural that the site will eventually be used for more
t an the few days of the County Fair.
Thank you for your attention to this issue.
Sincerely,
~r

North Garden, VA 22959
October 1, 1993
Mr. David Bowerman
Albemarle County Supervisor
401 McIntire Road
Charlottesville, VA 22901
Dear Mr. Bowerman:
I live on Route 760 directly across the road from the proposed site
of the Albemarle County Fair. In fact, the site is approximately
125 feet from our front door. Obviously we are concerned about the
noise (car horns, cannon, fireworks, yelling and screaming), lights
and traffic.
Even though the Fair Board has plans for traffic entering and
exiting on the north end of Rt. 760, there is nothing to stop
traffic from coming both ways, and I'm sure they will. This means
that the residents on this road will not have free access to and
from our homes- -even if we manage to get out, we would have a
difficult time getting back home. We have three diabetics living
on this road, and that is also a concern.
This Fair Board would have us believe that this site would be used
only 5 days a year. This board changes constantly; they have no
way of knowing what future board members will propose. Thus, we
will have this threat hanging over us for the rest of our lives.
Many of us are retired, and we cannot afford the services of an
attorney.
There is no doubt that most of the traffic comes from the north.
This means they must cross a very busy highway to enter Rt. 760.
Also, the left turn lane on Rt. 29 will not accommodate this
traffic.
Finally, the land itself is not appropriate for this type of
activity. As you know, part of it is in the flood plain, there are
high power lines over much of it, and most of it is hilly.
We would have no obj ection to houses on this property- -those
families would love the area as we do.
We are also convinced that this would lower our property value--
not the assessment--but certainly the resale value. I have yet to
find anyone who wants to live that close to a fair. (I do have an
.. . I- :
active real estate license so I'm not entirely green on this
issue. )
There are many more concerns as is evidenced by our petition which
was signed by approximately 140-150 persons in our area.
I sincerely request that the Board of Supervisors weigh our
concerns very carefully in making their decision on October 13.
Thank you for listening.
Sincerely,

Mr. David Bowerman
Dear Mr. Bowerman:
As citizen living in North Garden and subject to the traffic flow for
the Albemarle County Fair, we object to the intrusion that this event
will create. We moved to the country so that we would not have to put
up with all the noise and traffic; each one of you will also escape to
places that offer piece and quiet for your life; why encroach on ours.
You alsDhave the potential of the proposed housing development by Mr.
George Clark to produce more traffic for the entering and exiting on this
same road to the proposed Fair Grounds.
There is a principle involved - conflict of interest by one of the fair
officers--has principle gone out of style?
It is also imperative that the future generations be left some space for
their enjoyment.
Thank you for your time.

I am a resident of North Garden. The proposed site for the
bemarle County Fair does not really directly affect me or
convenience me in anyway, but I do feel the proposed site is
mpletely unsuitable for the planned purpose. I, like 25,000
her people, take my children to the fair annually sometimes more
t an once during the 5 day period it is held. I feel the proposed
s'te is dangerous because of the high power voltage lines that run
t rough the site. These lines are without a doubt dangerous to be
a ound. Add the thousands of children riding rides under them and
t ey become an even greater danger. Even if the rides were not
p sitioned under or around the high voltage lines the only other
p ace lies in a flood plane which is inappropriate to set up fair
r'des on.

ar Mr. Bowerman:
I am writing to you to express my strong opposition to the
bemarle County Fair being held on the proposed site off of Route
o in the North Garden area.
In addition to the site being unsuitable, there is the problem
traffic flow turning on to a road that is not designed for high
age. According to the Daily progress the Virginia Department of
ansportation opposes the proposed site because of the condition
Route 760. Also, the Albemarle County Police feel the traffic
f ow will be unmanageable because of the proposed traffic flow.
S' nce these Departments are the experts shouldn't we listen to
t em?
Thank you for your time and I hope you will support myself and
e North Garden area in our efforts against the proposed site for
e Albemarle County Fair.

quiring Planning Commission review is a proposed reduction of
disturbed buffer between commercial and residential properties
ich is permitted in accord with Section 21.7.3 which states:
Buffer zone adjacent to residential and rural areas
districts: No construction activity including grading or
clearing of vegetation shall occur closer than twenty (20)
feet to any residential or rural areas district. Screening
shall be provided as required in Section 32.7.0. (Amended
9-9-92). The commission may waive this requirement in a
2
particular case where it has been demonstrated that grading
or clearing is necessary or would result in an improved site
design, provided that:
a. Minimum screening requirements are met; and
b. Existing landscaping in excess of minimum requirements
is substantially restored. (Added 7-10-85)
e adjacent property to the south is zoned R-1, Residential and
used by the Virginia Department of Forestry. (The Department
Forestry also owns land on the opposite side of the Route 250
ass). The request for encroachment is due to the triangular
ape of the property under review which creates a need for the
croachment in order to install parking where the property is
st narrow.
e Virginia Department of Forestry has no objections to this
quest (Attachment D). The steep slope rising from this site to
e Department of Forestry completely screens the two sites from
ch other. There is no public benefit to retaining the
disturbed buffer as the vegetation within the buffer provides
screening value. Staff supports this request and recommends
proval of the modification request. Staff will
inistratively approve the site plan subject to Board of
pervisors approval of the special use permit and the Planning
mmission's approval of the modification request.

MEMORANDUM JCorrected Copy for Floodplain Elevationt
William Fritz, Senior Planner
Amelia G. McCulley, Zoning Administrator ~
August 18, 1993
RE: Buckingham Office Building
Th s memo is to clarify two issues for our files and for those of the applicant. The
issues relate to the building setback and the floodplain implications of the existing
fo ndation.
Th property is presently improved with a foundation, and no walls and roof. It
ha never been occupied. The foundation does not meet rear yard setbacks. It
sc les to be about 40 feet from the rear property line (common with the State
D partment of For~stry), which is 10 feet short of the 50 foot setback from
re identially zoned adjacent proper~. Based on a recent flood study submitted by
th applicant and approved by the Engineering Department, the southwest corner
of the foundation is in" the floodplain.
,
T e applicant has provided the contractor's cost sheet to document that the
fo ndation materials were priced in 1960. As you know, this predates the zoning
or inance. However, the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance specifically states
th t the "grandfathering" or nonconformity is extinguished after two (2) years of
ab ndonment. Section 6.1.3 states: "Any such use, activity or structure which is
di continued for more than two (2) years shall be deemed abandoned and shall
th reafter conform to the provisions of this ordinance relating to the district in
w ich the same is situated."

ugust 18, 1993
B II Fritz/Buckingham Office Building
P ge 2
It is my opinion that construction of the building, albeit on the same foundation,
r quires a setback variance. This is due to the abandonment of the original
n nconforming structure. This variance as well as one relating to the proposed
p rking setback, has been submitted for public hearing on September 14th.
R lating to the proposed parking setback reduction, is a request to reduce the 20
f ot buffer requirement adjacent to residential property. This request for buffer
aiver will be addressed most appropriately by the Planning Commission in
a cordance with Section 21.7.3.
ith regard to the floodplain, please take note of the attached prior
c rrespondence on this property. The floodplain is at elevation 436.38 feet. The
s uthwest foundation corner is in the floodway fringe portion of the floodplain.
T e site plan proposes to raise the finished floor of the basement from 435.77 feet
t 437.44 feet and to fill a small oortion of the orooertv. This is permitted with a
s ecial ermit with the limit to the use of the basement as storage only and no
II abitable space. II The soecial oermit has been submitted and is oending.
T e applicant was given a choice of either a) raising the finished floor elevation
a ove the floodplain elevation after filling with a soecial oermit: or b) filling at the
s uthwest corner to remove the entire structure from the floodplain overlay. They
c ose option f!.L which is allowed with a soecial oermit with limitations as to use.
o tion.Ql requires aooroval from the Armv COrDS of Engineers to amend the flood
in urance ma s.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Anyone
a grieved by this decision may appeal in writing, within thirty days.

This is in reference to parcels 12B, 12C and 12E on tax plat 76 in Samuel Miller
Ma isteriaJ District, Albemarle County. This site is proposed for a one story office building
to e developed by Virginia Land Trust.
The Virginia Department of Forestry owns the adjoining property listed as parcel
17. It is our understanding that the proposed' development site would include
en roachment of parking spaces into the 20' setback and undisturbed buffer area on the
De artment of Forestry property line. In order to place the parking area as planned it's
ne essary for the developer to obtain a varience to the zoning ordinance. The
De artment of Forestry has no objection to approval of the variance for this purpose.
,It
If we earn respond to any further questions, please do not hesitate to call.

.
.
he applicant is proposing a recreational facility containing a
umber of amusement features. Staff has reviewed all
ecreational activities involving a special use permit submitted
ince 1970. These facilities have been for a broad range of uses
'ncluding, but not limited to, skating rinks, dance halls,
reade, billiard center, indoor tennis, miniature golf courses,
riving ranges, gO-karts and bumper boats. From the analysis of
omments made in past reviews, the major issues involved for
ecreational activities have been impact on residential areas and
'mpact on schools (Site suitability has been an issue in some
ases, but is addressed by the requirements of a site plan). For
his review, staff has also reviewed transportation impact,
ecurity and impact on the entrance corridor.
he closest residential unit to this site is located 600 feet
istant on commercial property adjacent to Lowe's. The closest
esidential unit on residential property is located 900 feet
istant in Woodbrook (across u.s. 29). Based on these distances,
.t is not anticipated that this development will have negative
'mpact on residential areas.
site is located approximately 2,500 feet (0.5 miles) distant
the Agnor-Hurt School. Due to distance, staff opinion is
this use will not negatively impact the school.
Department of Transportation has stated:
The entrance that now serves Kegler's appears to be adequate
for Fastrax Entertainment.
The existing internal road will need to be upgraded to
maintain future development in this area.
he need to upgrade the road does not yet exist. As the road is
private road it will continue to be reviewed as further
evelopment plans are submitted.
ring the review of ZMA-85-17 and ZMA-88-0G, proffers were
mitted limiting vehicle trips on the area affected to 4,334
ehicle trips per day. The Lowe's site generates 2,500 vehicle
rips per day (based on a Virginia Department of Transportation
a proved traffic study). Based on ITE and information submitted

I ATTACHMENT C\
DE RIPTION OF RE
This application hereby requests a "Special Use Permit" to develop the land on the
side of Route 29 north of Charlottesville in front of and to the south of Kegler
ling, more accurately indicated in red on the attached plat. We propose to develop the
for a recreational, entertainment facility.
The foremost attraction at these facilities will be two go-cart tracks, one for small
chil ren and one for large children and adults. Small gas powered cars driven by the
par . cipants, meander through the track negotiating turns and other cars. The speed of the
is controlled, seat belts are required, the track is engineered professionally and many
oth r factors provide for a safe and enjoyable activity.
A bumper boat pool will be constructed allowing another fun filled activity. This
po I is shallow for safety purposes and will be chemically treated like a swimming pool to
ens e clean water. Small round boats equipped with a governed gas powered engine in the
cen er, traverse through the pool bumping into other participants.
A batting cage with up to four stations will be available for recreation as well as skill
dev loping for those more serious about the sport. These stations are fully encaged by fence
etting and have a pitching machine varying the b3:ll speed for different skill levels.
There will be a building constructed to facilitate two rest rooms, a sales counter, a
office, a small work area for the equipmeJ;lt, storage area for the equipment and a
video arcade. Packaged food and beverages as well as souvenirs will be sold through
g machines and sales clerk. ,.
The entire site will be professionally landscaped displaying various shrubbery and
trees, small ponds and water fountains. The overall appearance will be similar to the
ly constructed miniature golf facilities which is adjacent to this location.
The miniature- golf and bowling alley are both very complementary to this facility.
. 4
lottesville, Albemarle County and tourist ( a large constituency) will be well served by
conglomerate recreational area.

MARY JOY SCALA
OCTOBER 5, 1993
ENDED STAFF REPORT: REVIEW OF EASTHAM AGRICULTURAL/FORESTAL
DISTRICT:
he staff report presented to the Planning Commission on
eptember 21, 1993 was incorrect. The number of dwellings was
aken from computerized use value taxation data. This data does
ot list dwellings used for farm employees. In addition, the
ata may need to be updated. Staff intends to use the actual
assessment cards in the future to confirm field inspections. In
addition, the width of the AT&T right-of-way should be corrected
from 100 feet to 15 feet. The towers were removed and the right-
of-way reduced when fiber optic cable was placed underground.
ttached please find a revised chart on which the number of
wellings has been corrected. The dwellings on Shaw-Kennedy's
roperty (3 dwellings and a mobile home) were in place prior to
he original adoption of the Eastham District in 1985. No new
wellings have been added since 1982, when the main house was
uilt.
he Bigelow property contains eight (8) dwellings. All are
entals except the main house and the farm manager's house. One
welling was built after the district was adopted (1988 or 1989).
(All the other dwellings were built 1972 or earlier).
ecause the property was enrolled in an agricultural/forestal
istrict, the last dwelling should not have been permitted, since
everal rentals already existed. (Only one rental other than for
ona fide agricultural employees or immediate family members is
ermitted in a district. Existing rentals may continue, but new
entals must meet these requirements.) Based on this new
information, staff ,recommends that the Eastham District be sent
ack to the Advisory Committee (meeting on October 11) to see if
hey have a new recommendation. Staff will them reschedule the
astham District before the Planning Commission.

uUL _-lGi
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
tham District is the third district to come up for review in
emarle County. It was created on October 2, 1985, for a time
iod of eight years.
cedure: The Agricultural Forestal Districts Act, Code of
ginia section 15.1-1511.F requires that the Board of
ervisors complete a review of the Eastham
icultural/Forestal District prior to the review date, or
ermine that a review is unnecessary. (A 1993 amendment to the
e made review of districts optional rather than mandatory.
Board of supervisors adopted a new procedure on September 15
determine if a district review is necessary. A review is
essary in this case because the property owners wish to extend
review period to ten years.) In conducting such review, the
rd shall ask for the recommendations of the local Advisory
ittee and the Planning commission in order to determine
ther to terminate, modify, or continue the district.
Board may stipulate conditions to continuation of the
trict and may establish a period before the next review of the
trict, which may be different from the conditions or period
ablished when the district was created. Any such different
ditions or period must be described in a notice sent to
downers in the district, and published in a newspaper at least
weeks prior to adoption of the ordinance continuing the
trict.
Unless the district is modified or terminated by the Board of
ervisors, the district shall continue as originally
stituted, with the same conditions and period before the next
iew as were established when the district was created.
district is reviewed, land within the district may be
hdrawn at the owner's discretion by filing a written notice
h the Board of Supervisors at any time before the Board acts
continue, modify, or terminate the district.
If the Board determines that a review is not necessary, then the
p ocedure is to set by resolution the year in which the next
re iew shall occur.
1
The purpose of an agricultural/forestal district is "to
conserve and protect and to encourage the development and
i rovement of the Commonwealth's agricultural/forestal lands for
t e production of foods and other agricultural and forestal
p oducts..." and "to conserve and protect agricultural and
forestal lands as valued natural and ecological resources which
p ovide essential open space for clean air sheds, watershed
p tection, wildlife habitat, as well as for aesthetic purposes."
following factors must be considered by the Planning
Co ission and the Advisory Committee and at any public hearing
when a proposed district is being considered:
1. The agricultural and forestal significance of land within
the district and in areas adjacent thereto;
2. The presence of any significant agricultural lands or
significant forestal lands within the district and in areas
adjacent thereto that are not now in active agricultural or
forestal production;
3. The nature and extent of land uses other than active farming
or forestry within the district and in areas adjacent
thereto;
4. Local developmental patterns and needs;
5. The Comprehensive Plan and, if applicable, the zoning
regulations;
6. The environmental benefits of retaining the lands in the
district for agricultural and forestal uses; and
7. Any other matter which may be relevant.
fects of a District:
1. The proposed district provides a community benefit by
conserving and protecting farmlands and forest;
environmental resources such as watersheds, air quality,
open space, wildlife habitat; and scenic and historic
resources.
2
2. The state Code stipulates that the landowner receive certain
tax benefits*, and restrictions on public utilities and
government action (such as land acquisition and local
nuisance laws) to protect the agricultural/forestal use of
the land. In exchange, the landowner agrees to not develop
his property to a "more intensive use" during the specified
number of years the district is in effect.
*since Albemarle County currently permits all types of use value
a sessment, a district designation may not provide any additional
r al estate tax reductions. Land in a district is protected from
s ecial utility assessments or taxes.
3. The state Code stipulates that, "Local ordinances,
comprehensive plans, land use planning decisions,
administrative decisions and procedures affecting parcels of
land adjacent to any district shall take into account the
existence of such district and the purposes of this
chapter." The district may have no effect on adjacent
development by right, but could restrict proposed rezonings
or uses by special use permit which are determined to be in
conflict with the adjacent agricultural/forestal uses.
Districts must now be shown on the official Comprehensive
Plan map each time it is updated.
4. In general, a district may have a stabilizing effect on land
use. The property owners in the district are making a
statement that they do not intend to develop their property
in the near future, and that they would like the area to
remain in the agricultural and forestal uses. Adjacent
property owners may be encouraged to continue agricultural
uses if they do not anticipate development of adjacent
lands.
Eastham District is located on Route 20 North at Route
ea e: The original Eastham District contained 764.75 acres in
arcels. The proposed district now contains 708.761 acres in
10 parcels. (Changes in acreage since 1985 are: Parcel 1A was
originally listed incorrectly as 13.0 acres; it actually contains
13.48 acres; Parcel 28 containing 178.090 acres is not
re ommended to be continued at this time; three new parcels
co taining 121.457 acres are proposed to be added to the
di trict.)
e Period: Eight years is the current time period for Eastham
trict. The property owners are requesting a new ten year time
iod.
A icultural and Forestal si nificance: Land in the district is
be'ng used for hay, pasture, crops and forestry.
3
.
.
ificant Lands Not In A ricultural Forestal Production: The
value assessment program is a good indicator of the actual
of the properties. Approximately 281 acres are being used
r agriculture; 400 acres are in forestry; 5 acres are
n-qualifying due to dwellings; and 23 acres are not enrolled.
he owner of parcel 41A intends to enroll his parcel under land
e with a sheep operation. His daughter's parcel 41A1 is not
igible for land use but it fills a gap in the district
undary. )
nd Uses Other Than A riculture and Forestr
d ellings in the proposed Eastham district.
r'ght-of-way traverses parcels 27 and 41A1.
There are 6
A 15 foot AT&T
cal Develo mental Patterns and Needs: This area consists of
th large farms and smaller lot residential. Especially Rt. 610
s experienced alot of subdivision activity in recent years. In
neral, this agricultural/forestal district marks the unofficial
ginning of "rural" Rt. 20 North, even though the officially
signated Rural Area begins at Key West subdivision.
rehensive Plan and Zonin ulations: Eastham District is
ated within Rural Area II and is zoned RA, Rural Areas. The
rest Growth Area is the Urban Area, Neighborhood Three, which
approximately 2.0 miles to the southwest. A Comprehensive
n objective is, "All decisions concerning the Rural Areas
11 be made in the interest of the four major elements of the
al Areas, with highest priority given to preserving
icultural and forestal activities rather than encouraging
idential development" (p. 203). A strategy is, "Actively
mote and support voluntary techniques such as
icultural/forestal districts..." (p. 53).
ironmental Benefits: Environmental benefits include
tection of ground and surface water, wildlife habitat, and
n space. The district includes 100 year floodplain of Redbud
ek, and critical slopes of the Southwest Mountains. The Open
ce Plan shows that part of the district extends above the 700
t contour which is recommended for mountain protection. Rt.
North is a Virginia Byway and a County designated Entrance
ridor. The historic sites survey shows that the district
ludes Edgemont and Trevillians Mill (site). The entire
trict is included in the Southwest Mountains Rural Historic
trict.
ff Comment:
requests for withdrawal have been received to date. Staff
ommends continuation of the district including all
lications received to date, but excluding Tax Map 63, Parcel
until the violation has been corrected. The review period
uld be increased to ten years.

.
Committee Recommendation: The Advisory Committee at its
ting on September 13, 1993 unanimously recommended approval as
ommended by staff. (NOTE: The Committee was not aware of the
elow violation when they took action; also application for
cels 42A, 41A, and 41A1 had not yet been received.)
commissi n e ommendation: The Planning Commission at
meeting on October 5, 1993 unanimously recommended the
Ea tham District be continued for a ten year period; that Tax Map
63, Parcel 28 (Bigelow) be excluded from the review until the
vi lation on the property has been corrected; and that two
ad itional parcels, Tax Map 63, Parcel 42A (craige) and Tax Map
63, Parcel 41A (Gentry) be added to the Eastham District. (NOTE:
Ap lication for Parcel 41A1 (Gentry) had not yet been received.)

REVIEWED BY:
nt to a worksession on proposed changes to the County Code Chapter 16.01, "Naming of
d Numbering of Properties" the Board set a public hearing for October 13, 1993 to
adopting the proposed changes to the Code as outlined in Attachment A.
One of he proposed changes affected Section 16.01-6, "Numbers To Be Displayed". The current
ordinan e requires numbers to be displayed on structures on or before January 1, 1993. The
propose ordinance revises the date to January 1, 1994. This change was precipitated by
delays y the contractor in completing the addressing phase of the Enhanced 911 project. At
the tim of the worksession a November 1993 address notification date was expected. This
date ha again slipped and because the Postal Service will be undergoing major changes to
their c mputer system the address notification date will now occur after the first of the
year.
further changes to Section 16.01-6 a new reVLSLon to this section is proposed in
nt B. Instead of requiring numbers be displayed by a specific date, the recommended
requires the numbers to be displayed .....within 30 days of the address effective
established by the U.S. Postal Service."
language is adopted residents will be notified of this requirement when they are
of their new address.
ATION:
) Recommend adoption of the changes to the County Code Chapter 16.01, "Naming of
Roads and Numbering of Properties' as presented in Attachment A and as revised
by Attachment B to Section 16.01-6.
If the ordinance is adopted as proposed, it is recommended the Board also approve
the revised Naming of Roads and Numbering of Properties Manual (Attachment C) by
separate Resolution.

PAR II. NUMBERING
l. Assignment of Numbers by Agent
a. All numbers for properties and addressable structures shall
be assigned by the agent following the procedures and
guidelines contained in this manual. Numbers assigned by
any other person or entity shall not be recognized.
b. Numbers shall be assigned to any new addressable structure
shown on a site development plan or lot created by
subdivision. Numbers shall not be officially assigned until
the final site development plan or subdivision plat has been
approved. Numbers shall also be assigned when requested by
individuals for new structures that do not require site
development plan or subdivision approval.
2. Uniform Numbering System Established
All numbers shall be determined by the uniform numbering system
hereby established. This uniform system shall utilize a grid
system combined with an equal-interval numbering system.
3. Albemarle County Numbering Grid Defined
a. The Albemarle County Numbering Grid shall be based on the
existing Virginia State Plane Coordinate System which is a
grid superimposed over the State having lines at 10,000 foot
intervals oriented north-south and east-west. The Numbering
Grid shall have lines every lOOO feet interpolated between
the lO,OOO foot grid lines. The Numbering Grid thereby
establishes a series of 10,000 square foot cells or blocks
covering the entire County.
b. The axes or baselines of the Numbering Grid shall have their
origin at the intersection of the 1000 foot gridlines
nearest to the actual intersection of Wertland street and
15th street NW in the City of Charlottesville.
c. NUmbering along the axes of the grid begins with zero at the
origin and increases outward from that point with 100
numbers allotted per 1000 feet (thus resulting in a pair of
numbers every twenty feet). This grid shall be used to
determine the directionality and address range of a given
road segment.
4. Numberin9 Procedures
a. Directionality of Road Determined
(l) Before numbering along a named road may proceed, the
directionality of the road must be determined (east-
west or north-south). Generally, a road's
directionality shall be determined as that of the
Numbering Grid baseline the road in question most
closely parallels.
(2) Consideration may also be given to the type of
development involved, the relationship of the road in
question to other roads around it and the pattern of
numbers that result.
b. Number Range of Road Established
(l) The number range along a named road shall be
established by the NUmbering Grid baseline which has
the same directionality as the named road.
(2) In the event that a named road crosses one of the
baselines of the Numbering Grid, the number range of
that named road shall be adjusted so that no number
occurs twice along the named road.
c. Numbers Assigned
Once the directionality and number range of a
particular road segment has been determined, the
numbering of the addressable structures and properties
along the road segment shall be done utilizing an
-
equal-interval methodology. The numbers shall be
assigned beginning at the end of the road segment
nearest the origin of the Numbering Grid. The numbers shall
then be evenly distributed within the established number
range.
5. General Numberinq Guidelines
a. Even numbers shall occur on the north side of east-west
designated roads and the west side of north-south designated
roads. Odd numbers shall occur on the opposite sides.
b. All addressable structures and properties shall be numbered
on the named road which a structure's or property's primary
access intersects. The specific number shall be determined
by the point at which the access meets the named road.
c. The number sequence for addressable structures or properties
on opposite sides of a road should conform to each other as
nearly as possible.
d. Half numbers shall not be used. Alphabetical or numerical
suffixes are acceptable when a secondary address designation
is necessary.
e. Reverse frontage or through lots shall be numbered along the
local road which provides access to the lot.
f. Corner lots shall be numbered on the road which provides
access. Where the driveway for a corner lot intersects more
than one street, the agent shall make the final
determination as to which road to base the number, with
consideration to such factors as the driveway's length,
orientation of the structure and other relevant factors.
g. When two addressable structures share an access, they shall
be numbered consecutively with adequate consideration given
to possible future development between the structures.
h. Temporary numbers shall not be issued. A number may be
issued to a structure that is intended to be temporary (such
as a construction site trailer office) and upon removal of
the temporary structure, the number shall be retired.
6. Mobile Home Developments
within mobile home parks all roads shall be treated as private
roads unless dedicated for maintenance by VDOT and road name and
road signage shall apply accordingly. Each mobile home lot shall
be numbered in accordance with this manual. The mobile home park
owner shall be responsible for posting lot numbers in a manner
acceptable to the agent in accordance with PART IV Section 1 of
this manual.
7. Re.idential Apartaent. and other Multi-dwelling structures
Individual apartment units shall be numbered considering the type
of unit, the individual apartment entrance location and building
design as follows:
a. Duplex: A number shall be provided to the front
entrance of each individual unit.
b. Townhouse: A number shall be provided to each
individual unit at its front entrance.
c. Garden A9artment: A number shall be provided to each
unit at its entrance. If the apartment unit's entrance is
located on an inside foyer, a number shall be provided
outside the building entrance. Each unit located on such
foyer shall be provided with an alphabetical or numerical
suffix as a secondary method of addressing. The building
number and road name followed by the apartment unit's
alphabetical or numerical designation shall form the
address. (Example: 630 Old Shady Grove Road, Apartment A.)
Numerical and alphabetical characters shall not be combined
(as in 630-A Old Shady Grove Road). The development name
may also be used in the address whenever desirable.
8. Commercial, Office and Industrial Complexes
For commercial, office and industrial complexes, a numbering
choice shall be made by the agent from several methods:
(1) Assign the number to the main building where all mail is to
be received for the complex. The development name may be
included in the address.
(2) Each principal building in the complex may be provided a
separate number, and the buildings may also be named. The
development name and/or the building name may be included in
the address.
(3) For shopping center development, a separate number shall be
assigned for each 'unit's main entrance. The shopping center
name should be included in the address. Consideration
should be given when assigning numbers to provide
flexibility for adding stores and redivision of spaces. In
the event a space is redivided and no numbers remain
available, alphabetical or numerical unit designations shall
be used.
(4) Interior mall shopping centers should have one number
assigned for the entire mall. The shopping center name and
store name should be included in the address. Individual
stores should not be assigned numbers except that secondary
addressing may be provided in accord with PART II.5.d of
this manual. A separate property number may be assigned for
the mall business office.
-
(5) Where deemed appropriate by the agent, a multiple-story
building may be assigned one address number at its main
entrance. Individual units may be provided with secondary
addressing based on floor numbering together with unit
appellation such as "suite" or "room." The first floor
shall be assigned numbers beginning with 100 and numbers on
each successive floor should increase to the next highest
lOO series (second floor - 200 series; third floor 300
series, etc.). A basement or floor below ground level may
use a three digit series beginning with zero.

a. The road name sign blank shall be made from flat aluminum
sign sheet material conforming to ASTM B209 for Alloy 5052-
H38 or its equivalent. The sign blank thickness shall be
O.lOO" or greater and each corner of the sign blank shall
be square cut. Holes shall be placed in the blank name
plate as detailed in "Detail C".
b. There shall be two sizes of road name signs - standard and
oversize. Standard signs shall be eight (8) inches in
vertical length (height) while oversize signs shall be nine
(9) inches in vertical length. Standard signs shall be used
along all secondary and subdivision roads except at
intersections with primary roads. Oversize signs shall be
used along primary roads and at secondary and subdivision
roads intersecting primary roads.
The letter type shall conform to Federal Highway Association
"Standard Alphabets for Highway Signs", Series C or B, upper

*For private roads, place the word PRIVATE in Route Decal Space
The less common designators such as FARM, WAY, HEIGHTS, and TRACT
may be placed in the main message field if space is available.
c. The sign may be constructed using either the cut letter
process or the silk screen process. The green and white
colors shall be uniform throughout the length of the sign.
(1) If the cut letter process is used the sign blank shall
be covered on both sides for the entire length of the
blank with a high intensity (encapsulated)
reflectorized green background sheeting, 3M
"Scotchlite" brand product number 3877 or equivalent
product. High intensity (encapsulated) reflectorized
sheeting 3M "Scotchlite" product number 3870 or
equivalent product shall be used for the silver-white
letters and numerals. The reflective material shall be
applied to both sides of the blank name plate with
mechanical equipment in a manner specified by the
sheeting manufacturer. The sign background shall be
comprised of not more than one piece of reflective
"
sheeting. The letters and numerals shall be applied on
both faces of the sign using the cut letter process.
The reflective sheeting shall have a minimum guaranteed
life of ten years.
(2) The silk Screen process shall use a sign blank prepared
as described above with the silver-white 3M brand
product number 3870 (encapsulated) reflectorized
sheeting or equivalent product. The green background
shall be applied using 3M brand product number 848 or
equivalent process color. After application and curing
of the color according to product specifications, a
clear coat of Series 840 Transparent Colors product
number 840 Clear or equivalent product shall be applied
and cured according to product specifications.
d. The maximum space available on a standard (8" high) sign for
the road name is 34 inches and an oversize (9" high) sign
has 32 inches of space for the road name. Spacing between
letters within a street name should conform to the spacing
dimensions shown in the Virginia Supplement to the Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways
unless this will result in a sign width greater than the
maximum space available. In such cases, a thirty (30)
percent force factor may be used on signs greater in length
than 42 inches for standard signs or 48 inches for oversized
signs. The spacing between the letters using the forced
factor may be reduced proportionately to a minimum of
one-half inches at the closest point between two adjoining
letters. If further reduction is required, Series B letters
may be used. If the name will not fit in the space
available, a thirty (30) percent force factor may be used as
above. Finally, if the approved road name will not fit on
the maximum length sign with the Series B letters and a
thirty (30) percent force factor, a modification shall be
required from the County Engineering Department.
e. At the end of the road name there are three spaces either
eight inches (for the 8" sign) or twelve inches (for the 9"
sign) in length which are stacked one over the other. These
spaces are reserved for the route decal, the block number
and the road type suffix. If the block number is to be
affixed in decal form, the decal will be of the same
material as the main sign sheeting as specified above. The
directional triangle, an 1.25 inch equilateral triangle for
the eight inch sign or 1.5 inch equilateral triangle for the
nine inch sign of silverwhite "Scotchlite" material or
equivalent product, is to be affixed in front of or at the
end of the block number to point in the direction of
increasing numerical values. See "Detail B" for location of
spaces.
..
..
f. The route decal shall be non-reflectorized with a black
message on a white color field. The decal shall be provided
and installed by the Virginia Department of Transportation,
but shall not be required prior to installation of the sign.
3. Post and Bardware Specifications
a. The sign post shall be a standard dimension pressure treated
(ground contact quality in conformance with the requirements
of American Wood Preservers Association C2) 4" x 4" wood
post cut with a minimum ten (lO) foot straight section. The
sign must be embedded a minimum of 27 inches in the ground,
which may require some sign posts to be longer than ten (10)
feet. The top of the post shall be cut flush with the
signs. The signs should be mounted flush at the top, at
ninety (90) degrees to each other, with a minimum seven (7)
foot clearance from the bottom of the sign to the ground.
The sign blades shall face away from the intersection on the
pavement side of the post and parallel to the road
alignment. The soil shall be tightly tamped around the post
to prevent removal of the sign. The disturbed soil shall be
graded to drain away from the post. The post shall be
plumbed vertically and horizontally.
b. The sign mounting hardware shall consist of four (4)
stainless steel hex-head lag screws (3/8" diameter x J"
length) or an approved equivalent per sign. The lag screws
are to be installed in the manner illustrated in "Detail C"
with four (4) 3/8 inch #18-8 stainless steel flat washers
with a one inch outside diameter or an approved equivalent.
c. A special sign post and/or installation may be allowed at
the discretion of the Director of Engineering provided it is
equal to or exceeds the specifications above. Where
allowed, a maintenance agreement between Albemarle County
and the responsible party shall be required for the
maintenance of any special installation.
4. Location of Post and Sign
a. The sign post shall be placed in the road right-of-way a
minimum of three (J) horizontal feet from any above ground
or underground utility or equipment line. The installer
shall be responsible for contacting "Miss utility" before
installing signs (l-800-552-7001). At the intersection of a
primary and secondary road or in the event a road name
changes at an intersection of two secondary roads, two (2)
sign locations are to be used. For all new roads, a minimum
of two signs are required at every intersection. The sign
post shall be located on the right hand side of the street
for a right turn onto the secondary road where possible.
The sign shall be a minimum of five (5) horizontal feet on
the centerline radius of the curve from the outer edge of
the pavement for roads without ditch lines. The sign must
..
be installed behind an existing ditch line while remaining
within the road right-of-way. Those roads that have ditch
lines less than three (3) feet from the edge of pavement
will have signs placed two (2) horizontal feet back from the
ditch line. See "Detail A" for diagram. For urban road
sections with curb and gutter, the sign post will be placed
behind the edge of the curb and five horizontal feet on the
centerline radius of the curve from the edge of pavement.
If a sidewalk is adjacent to the curb, then the sign post
will be placed behind the sidewalk and within the right-of-
way. Signs and posts shall not obstruct handicapped ramps
or wheelchair loading areas in the vertical or horizontal
direction.
b. At the intersection of two secondary roads, only one (l)
sign location is to be used except as required in 4.a. This
is to be the right hand corner of the intersection for
inbound traffic to the subdivision. See "Detail A" for
diagram.
c. The Director of Engineering may allow an alternate sign
location upon finding that due to existing site conditions,
the foregoing locational requirements cannot be practicably
met, or that an alternate location would equally or better
serve the purposes of this manual. This must be confirmed
with the County Engineering Department prior to installation
of the sign.
PAR'~ IV. DISPLAY 01' ADDRESS NUMBERS
1. General Guidelines for Display of Address Numbers
a. Address numbers shall be displayed at the primary access
entrance on a mailbox, post, fence or other suitable
location that is easily discernible from the road. If the
structure is 100 feet or less from the road, the entrance
door of the structure is clearly visible from the road, and
there is no mailbox, post, fence or other suitable location
at the primary access entrance, address numbers shall be
displayed on, above, or at the side of the main entrance
door in a manner that is clearly visible from the road upon
which it is numbered.
b. The address number shall be displayed as numerals and shall
not be spelled out. Secondary address designations shall
comply with PART II.5.d.
c. The numerals displayed and where applicable, lettering,
shall be at least three (J) inches in height on a

-
d. If the mailbox is not located on the named road from which
the number has been assigned, the entire address (number and
road name) shall be shown on that mailbox to avoid
confusion. In such case, it will be necessary to also
display the number on the property as stated above.
e. On corner lots, the number shall only be displayed to face
the street upon which the property is numbered.
f. Any numbers previously displayed, which could be confused
with or mistaken for the assigned address number shall be
removed from the mailbox and property.
g. Numbers shall be properly maintained by the property owner
to ensure they are clearly discernible from the roadway upon
which the property is numbered.
2. Display of Address Numbers for MUlti-unit Buildinqs and
MUlti-Buildinq Co.plexes
a. If a building is divided into multiple units with separate
entrances, and each unit has been assigned an individual
number, then each unit number shall be displayed on or next
to the main doorway.
b. The address range of all individual unit numbers within a
multi-unit building shall be displayed in a manner that is
clearly visible from the road upon which the units are
numbered. If more than one building shares an access, then
the address range shall also be displayed on each building.

Executive
Proposed Changes to the Naming of Roads and Numbering of
Properties Ordinance and Manual
ost proposed changes (particularly to the manual) are of an
ditorial or "housekeeping" nature to provide: consistent usage
f language/terms found in other documents such as the Zoning and
ubdivision Ordinances; internal consistency in the ordinance and
anual; and particularly consistency between the Naming of Roads
nd Numbering of Properties Ordinance and Manual. Major
ubstantive changes to the ordinance and manual are the focus of
his memo.
eview of the "Road Name" Ordinance was prompted by existing
anguage of ~16.01-6. The effective date for address numbers to
e displayed of that section caused concern to the Inspections
epartment. After discussion among several agencies, other
otential administrative problems were identified and curative
anguage was developed. Major substantive changes are as
ollows:
A new provision for existing unnamed roads [~16.01-1(c),
paragraph 5] where the County would be responsible for the
road signs when needed.
2. A change to the effective date for numbering requirements of
~16.01-6. The county is currently unable to assign numbers
outside of major subdivisions until new address notifications
have taken place (tentatively scheduled for November, 1993).
II ~ , .,,,
3. A change to the second sentence of ~16.01-6 to make the
provision applicable in the case of named roads, so as to
avoid prolonged delay to a property owner seeking an
occupancy permit (a number cannot be assigned until a road
has been named, see also #1 above).
4. A change to ~16.01-7 to clarify that the provision applies to
family divisions regarding naming/signing requirements.
Jol1ANUAL
Following the review of the ordinance, the manual was reviewed
for consistency with the ordinance. Duplicative language/terms
~ere deleted and a general effort was made to shorten and
simplify the manual. Major substantive changes are as follows:
1. The Director of Planning and Community Development would be
authorized to modify, vary or waive certain standards (Part
I, Sections 4 and 5).
2. The permissible number of characters in a road name has been
reduced to reduce the overall sign length in order to
increase durability (from wind damage) [Part I, Section
4(c)].
3. A special procedure would be available to the Director of
Engineering to allow alternatives to the sign post
specifications [Part III, Section 3(c)].
S~ould you have any questions regarding these proposed changes,
please do not hesitate to contact either Ron or myself.

6. Road Naming Process
For the purpose of this section, "served" by a road shall include right of use
whether or not a property actually uses such road.
a. Policy on Participation in Road Naming:
(1) The process of naming roads shall be limited to those who own
property served by the road in question.
(2) Where the road serves several properties, the landowners shall be
given the opportunity to propose the name.
(3) In the event that there is no participation from the landowners,
the agent shall name the road in accordance with County proce-
dures.
b. Processing Requests for Road Names:
Requests to name roads shall be in writing to the agent and shall include
the following information:
(1) A description of the road's location giVing the direction and
approximate distance from the nearest intersection of two (2)
public roads.
(2) A list of all landowners having property served by the road in
question together with certification that all such landowners have
been notified of the proposed name.
(3) Signatures of landowners representing a majority (greater than
fifty [50] percent) of parcels served by the road in agreement of
a common road name.
Upon validating that landowners of more than fifty (50) percent of the
parcels served by the road in question have signed the petition in favor
of a common road name, and that the proposed name is otherwise
consistent with Part I of this manual, the agent shall approve the road
name.
c. Road Name Reservation Process
Road names may be reserved during the preliminary plan or plat review
process by a written request to the agent. Names shall be reserved
unless the project is disapproved, abandoned or otherwise voided.
(Page 5)
d. Road Naming in the Subdivision and Site Development Review Process
(1) A developer may contact the agent prior to submission to
determine the viability of proposed names. Road names may be
reserved as provided in Section 6-c.
(2) Proposed road names shall appear on all final site development
plans and subdivision plats, where applicable.
(3) No final site development plan or final subdivision plat shall be
approved by the agent until all road names shall have been
approved by the agent.
(4) Names approved on a preliminary plan/plat shall be reserved for
the life of the preliminary plan/plat and shall be shown on the final
plan/plat.
7 Final Authority of Board of Supervisors to Assign Road Names
The Board of Supervisors may name or rename any road at any time.
PART II. NUMBERING
1 Assignment of Numbers by Agent
a. All numbers for properties and addressable structures shall be assigned
by the agent following the procedures and guidelines contained in this
manual. Numbers assigned by any other person or entity shall not be
recognized.
b. Numbers shall be assigned to any new addressable structure shown on
a site development plan or lot created by subdivision. Numbers shall not
be officially assigned until the final site development plan or subdivision
plat has been approved. Numbers shall also be assigned when requested
by individuals for new structures that do not require site development
plan or subdivision approval.
2 Uniform Numbering System Established
All numbers shall be determined by the uniform numbering system hereby
established. This uniform system shall utilize a grid system combined with an
equal-interval numbering system.
(Page 6)
3 Albemarle County Numbering Grid Defined
a. The Albemarle County Numbering Grid shall be based on the existing
Virginia State Plane Coordinate System which is a grid superimposed
over the State having lines at 10,000 foot intervals oriented northsouth
and east-west. The Numbering Grid shall have lines every 1000 feet
interpolated between the 10,000 foot grid lines. The Numbering Grid
thereby establishes a series of 10,000 square foot cells or blocks
covering the entire County.
b. The axes or baselines of the Numbering Grid shall have their origin at the
intersection of the 1000 foot grid lines nearest to the actual intersection
of Wertland Street and 15th Street NW in the City of Charlottesville.
c. Numbering along the axes of the grid begins with zero at the origin and
increases outward from that point with 100 numbers allotted per1000
feet (thus resulting in a pair of numbers every twenty feet). This grid
shall be used to determine the directionality and address range of a given
road segment.
4 Numbering Procedures
a. Directionality of Road Determined
(1) Before numbering along a named road may proceed, the di-
rectionality of the road must be determined (east-west or north-
south). Generally, a road's directionality shall be determined as
that of the Numbering Grid baseline the road in question most
closely parallels.
(2) Consideration may also be given to the type of development in-
volved, the relationship of the road in question to other roads
around it and the pattern of address numbers that result.
b. Number Range of Road Established
(1) The number range along a named road shall be established by the
Numbering Grid baseline which has the same directionality as the
named road.
(2) In the event that a named road crosses one of the baselines of the
Numbering Grid, the number range of that named road shall be
adjusted so that no number occurs twice along the named road.
(Page 7)
c. Numbers Assigned
Once the directionality and number range of a particular road segment
has been determined, the numbering of the addressable structures and
properties along the road segment shall be done utilizing an equal-interval
methodology. The numbers shall be assigned beginning at the end of
the road segment nearest the origin of the Numbering Grid. The
numbers shall then be evenly distributed within the established number
range.
5 General Numbering Guidelines
a. Even numbers shall occur on the north side of east-west designated
roads and the west side of north-south designated roads. Odd numbers
shall occur on the opposite sides.
b. All addressable structures and properties shall be numbered on the
named road which a structure's or properties primary access intersects.
The specific number shall be determined by the point at which the
access meets the named road.
c. The number sequence for addressable structures or properties on oppo-
site sides of a road should conform to each other as nearly as possible.
d. Half numbers shall not be used. Alphabetical suffixes are acceptable
when a secondary address designation is necessary.
e. Reverse frontage or through lots shall be numbered along the local road
which provides access to the lot.
f. Corner lots shall be numbered on the road which provides access.
Where the driveway for a corner lot intersects more than one street, the
agent shall make the final determination as to which road to base the
number, with consideration to such factors as the driveway's length,
orientation of the structure and other relevant factors.
g. When two (2) addressable structures share an access, they shall be
numbered consecutively with adequate consideration given to possible
future development between the structures.
h. Temporary numbers shall not be issued. A number may be issued to a
structure that is intended to be temporary (such as a construction site
trailer office), and upon removal of the temporary structure, the number
shall be retired.
(Page 8)
6 Mobile Home Developments
Within mobile home parks all roads shall be treated as private roads unless
dedicated for maintenance by the Virginia Department of Transportation and
road name and road signage shall apply accordingly. Each mobile home lot
shall be numbered in accordance with this manual. The mobile home park
owner shall be responsible for posting lot numbers in a manner acceptable to
the agent in accordance with Part IV, Section 1, of this manual.
7 Residential Apartments and Other Multi-dwelling Structures
Individual apartment units shall be numbered considering the type of unit, the
individual apartment entrance location and building design as follows:
a. Duplex: A number shall be provided to the front entrance of each
individual unit.
b. Townhouse: A number shall be provided to each individual unit at its
front entrance.
c. Garden Apartment: A number shall be provided to each unit at its
entrance. If the apartment unit's entrance is located on an inside foyer,
a number shall be provided outside the building entrance. Each unit
located on such foyer shall be provided with an alphabetical or numerical
suffix as a secondary method of addressing. The building number and
road name followed by the apartment unit's alphabetical or numerical
designation shall form the address (Example: 630 Old Shady Grove
Road, Apartment A). Numerical and alphabetical characters shall not be
combined (as in 630-A Old Shady Grove Road). The development name
may also be used in the address whenever desirable.
8 Commercial, Office and Industrial Complexes
For commercial, office and industrial complexes, a numbering choice shall be
made by the agent from several methods:
a. Assign the number to the main building where all mail is to be received
for the complex. The development name may be included in the
address.
b. Each principal building in the complex may be provided a separate
number, and the buildings may also be named. The development name
and/or the building name may be included in the address.
(Page 9)
I
c. For shopping center development, a separate number shall be assigned
for each unit's main entrance. The shopping center name should be
included in the address. Consideration should be given when assigning
numbers to provide flexibility for adding stores and redivision of spaces.
In the event a space is redivided and no numbers remain available
alphabetical or numerical unit designations shall be used.
d. Interior mall shopping centers should have one number assigned for the
entire mall. The shopping center name and store name should be
included in the address. Individual stores should not be assigned
numbers except that secondary addressing may be provided in accord
with Part 11.5.d of this manual. A separate property number may be
assigned for the mall business office.
e. Where deemed appropriate by the agent, a multiple-story building may
be assigned one address number at its main entrance. Individual units
may be provided with secondary addressing based on floor numbering
together with unit appellation such as "suite" or "room". The first floor
shall be assigned numbers beginning with 1 00 and numbers on each
successive floor should increase to the next highest 1 00 series (second
floor - 200 series; third floor - 300 series, etc.). A basement or floor
below ground level may use a three digit series beginning with zero.
9 Agencies to Be Notified of Numbers Assigned
a. The agent shall notify the following agencies and departments of all
approved road names and assigned numbers within five (5) days of
approval or assignment, as the case may be:
Albemarle County Department of Real Estate
Albemarle County Department of Building Inspections
Albemarle County Department of Police
Albemarle County Department of Sheriff
Albemarle County Service Authority
Albemarle County Registrar's Office
Albemarle County Fire/Rescue Administration
University of Virginia
Charlottesville-Albemarle Emergency Operations Center
United States Postal Service Address Programs Support Office
b. The agent shall also notify any other governmental agencies or depart-
ments and utility requesting notification.

*For private roads, place the word PRIVA TE in Route Decal Space
(Page 11)
The less common designators such as FARM, WAY, HEIGHTS and
TRACT may be placed in the main message field if space is available.
c. The sign may be constructed using either the cut letter process or the
silk screen process. The green and white colors shall be uniform
throughout the length of the sign.
(1) If the cut letter process is used, the sign blank shall be covered on
both sides for the entire length of the blank with a high intensity
(encapsulated) reflectorized green background sheeting, 3M
"Scotchlite" brand product number 3877 or equivalent product.
High intensity (encapsulated) reflectorized sheeting 3M "Scotch-
lite" product number 3870 or equivalent product shall be used for
the silver-white letters and numerals. The reflective material shall
be applied to both sides of the blank name plate with mechanical
equipment in a manner specified by the sheeting manufacturer.
The sign background shall be comprised of not more than one
piece of reflective sheeting. The letters and numerals shall be
applied on both faces of the sign using the cut letter process. The
reflective sheeting shall have a minimum guaranteed life of ten
(10) years.
(2) The Silk Screen process shall use a sign blank prepared as de-
scribed above with the silver-white 3M brand product number
3870 (encapsulated) reflectorized sheeting or equivalent product.
The green background shall be applied using 3M brand product
number 848 or equivalent process color. After application and
curing of the color according to product specifications, a clear
coat of Series 840 Transparent Colors product number 840 Clear
or equivalent product shall be applied and cured according to
product specifications.
d. The maximum space available on a standard (8" high) sign for the road
name is thirty-four (34) inches and an oversized (9" high) sign has 32
inches of space for the road name. Spacing between letters within a
street name should conform to the spacing dimensions shown in the
Virginia Supplement to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for
Streets and Highways unless this will result in a sign width greater than
the maximum space available. In such cases, a thirty (30) percent force
factor may be used on signs greater in length than forty-two (42) inches
for standard signs or forty-eight (48) inches for oversized signs. The
spacing between the letters using the forced factor may be reduced
proportionately to a minimum of one-half inches at the closest point
(Page 12)
between two (2) adjoining letters. If further reduction is required, Series
B letters may be used. If the name will not fit in the space available, a
thirty (30) percent force factor may be used as above. Finally, if the
approved road name will not fit on the maximum length sign with the
Series B letters and a thirty (30) percent force factor, a modification shall
be required from the County Engineering Department.
e. At the end of the road name there are three (3) spaces either eight (8)
inches (for the 8" sign) or twelve (12) inches (for the 9" sign) in length
which are stacked one over the other. These spaces are reserved for the
route decal, the block number and the road type suffix. If the block
number is to be affixed in decal form, the decal will be of the same
material as the main sign sheeting as specified above. The directional
triangle, a 1.25 inch equilateral triangle for the eight (8) inch sign or 1.5
inch equilateral triangle for the nine (9) inch sign of silver-white "Scotch-
lite" material or equivalent product, is to be affixed in front of or at the
end of the block number to point in the direction of increasing numerical
values. See "Detail B" for location of spaces.
f. The route decal shall be non-reflectorized with a black message on a
white color field. The decal shall be provided and installed by the
Virginia Department of Transportation, but shall not be required prior to
installation of the sign.
3. Post and Hardware Specifications
a. The sign post shall be a standard dimension pressure treated (ground
contact quality in conformance with the requirements of American Wood
Preservers Association C2) four inch by four inch (4" x 4") wood post
cut with a minimum ten (10) foot straight section. The sign must be
embedded a minimum of twenty-seven (27) inches in the ground, which
may require some sign posts to be longer than ten (10) feet. The top of
the post shall be cut flush with the signs. The signs should be mounted
flush at the top, at ninety (90) degrees to each other, with a minimum
seven (7) foot clearance from the bottom of the sign to the ground. The
sign blades shall face away from the intersection on the pavement side
of the post and parallel to the road alignment. The soil shall be tightly
tamped around the post to prevent removal of the sign. The disturbed
soil shall be graded to drain away from the post. The post shall be
plumbed vertically and horizontally.
b. The sign mounting hardware shall consist of four (4) stainless steel hex-
head lag screws (3/8" diameter x 3" length) or an approved equivalent
per sign. The lag screws are to be installed in the manner illustrated in
(Page 13)
"Detail C" with four (4) 3/8" #18-8 stainless steel flat washers with a
one-inch outside diameter or an approved equivalent.
c. A special sign post and/or installation may be allowed at the discretion
of the Director of Engineering provided it is equal to or exceeds the
specifications above. Where allowed, a maintenance agreement between
Albemarle County and the responsible party shall be required for the
maintenance of any special installation.
4 Location of Post and Sign
a. The sign post shall be placed in the road right-of-way a minimum of three
(3) horizontal feet from any above ground or underground utility or
equipment line. The installer shall be responsible for contacting "Miss
Utility" before installing signs (1-800-552-7001). At the intersection of
a primary and secondary road or in the event a road name changes at an
intersection of two (2) secondary roads, two (2) sign locations are to be
used. For all new roads, a minimum of two (2) signs are required at
every intersection. The sign post shall be located on the right hand side
of the street for a right turn onto the secondary road, where possible.
The sign shall be a minimum of five (5) horizontal feet on the centerline
radius of the curve from the outer edge of the pavement for roads
without ditch lines. The sign must be installed behind an existing ditch
line while remaining within the road right-of-way. Those roads that have
ditch lines less than three (3) feet from the edge of pavement will have
signs placed two (2) horizontal feet back from the ditch line. (See
"Detail A" for diagram.) For urban road sections with curb and gutter,
the sign post will be placed behind the edge of the curb and five (5)
horizontal feet on the centerline radius of the curve from the edge of
pavement. If a sidewalk is adjacent to the curb, then the sign post will
be placed behind the sidewalk and within the right-of-way. Signs and
posts shall not obstruct handicapped ramps or wheel chair loading areas
in the vertical or horizontal direction.
b. At the intersection of two (2) secondary roads, only one (1) sign location
is to be used except as required in 4.a. This is to be the right hand
corner of the intersection for inbound traffic to the subdivision (see
"Detail A" for diagram).
c. The Director of Engineering may allow an alternate sign location upon
finding that due to existing site conditions, the foregoing localational
requirements cannot be practicably met, or that an alternate location
would equally or better serve the purposes of this manual. This must be
(Page 14)
confirmed with the County Engineering Department prior to installation
of the sign.
PART IV . DISPLAY OF ADDRESS NUMBERS
1 General Guidelines for Display of Address Numbers
a. Address numbers shall be displayed at the primary access entrance on
a mailbox, post, fence or other suitable location that is easily discernible
from the road. If the structure is one hundred (100) feet or less from the
road, the entrance door of the structure is clearly visible from the road,
and there is no mailbox, post, fence or other suitable location at the
primary access entrance, address numbers shall be displayed on, above,
or at the side of the main entrance door in a manner that is clearly visible
from the road upon which it is numbered.
b. The address number shall be displayed as numerals and shall not be
spelled out. Secondary address designations shall comply with Part
11.5.d.
c. The numerals displayed, and where applicable, lettering, shall be at least
three (3) inches in height on a contrasting background (dark figures over
a light background or light figures over a dark background).
d. If the mailbox is not located on the named road from which the number
has been assigned, the entire address (number and road name) shall be
shown on that mailbox to avoid confusion. In such cases, it will be
necessary to also display the number on the property as stated above.
e. On corner lots, the number shall only be displayed to face the street
upon which the property is numbered.
f. Any numbers previously displayed, which could be confused with or
mistaken for the assigned address number shall be removed from the
mailbox and property.
g. Numbers shall be properly maintained by the property owner to ensure
they are clearly discernible from the roadway upon which the property
is numbered.

3. Albemarle County AddrcDsiBg l~mD!:~'Bg Grid Defined
a. The Albemarle County Addreooing N_~ooing Grid shall be
based on the existing Virginia stiit'ei""Plane Coordinate System
which is a grid superimposed over the State having lines at
10,000 foot intervals oriented north-south and east-west.
The Addreooing NYmp~ii:pg Grid shall have lines every 1000
feet interpolab~~d'Eetween the 10,000 foot grid lines. The
Addreooing NqrnPgAAWn<< Grid thereby establishes a series of
10,000 squa're""f6'6E""6ells or blocks covering the entire
County.
b. The axes or baselines of the Addreooing Mymm@PWp.9. Grid shall
have their origin at the intersection of"the"TtfbO foot
gridlines nearest to the actual intersection of Wertland
Street and 15th street NW in the City of Charlottesville.
c. Numbering along the axes of the grid begins with zero at the
origin and increases outward from that point with 100
numbers allotted per 1000 feet (thus resulting in a pair of
numbers every twenty feet). This grid shall be used to
determine the directionality and address range of a given
road segment.
4. Ad4rcssiBg 1~!:!~Di Procedures
a. Directionality of Road Determined
(1) Before addreooing of ngmE~OOing:.~~9P.9. a named road may
proceed, the directioii'iilTtY6f'theroad must be
determined (east-west or north-south). Generally, a
road's directionality shall be determined as that of
the Addreoo Nijmp~iipg Grid baseline the road in
question mos,€"6T6sely parallels.
(2) Consideration may also be given to the type of
development involved, the relationship of the road in
question to other roads around it and the pattern of
addreoo numbers that result.
b. Addreoo RHmm~W Range of Road Established
(1)
The addreoo n9mMg# range ~ IWgp<< a named road shall be
established byEhe numbering"riT6h the Addreooin
tfgmp~i~ig Grid baseline which hasgthe same g
dIre'CtT6iiality as the named road.

thaT'fio addreoo number occurs twice along the named
road.

,
c. AddreoG Numbers Assigned
Once the directionality and ~ddreoG b.Ym~g# range of a
particular road segment has been determIned, the
numbering of the addressable structures and properties
along the road segment shall be done utilizing an
equal-interval methodology. The numbers shall be
assigned beginning at the end of the road segment
nearest the origin of the Addreooing Ngmm@I:~ns. Grid.
The numbers shall then be evenly dist'fTbut'Eid"""within
the established ~ddreoo pqmp~F range.
5. General Addreosing I~~m~!w~n~ Guidelines
