Attachment 2 Amendment to Hollymead Community Profile Recommendations Adopted 10/1012001, (CPA 19984)3, Post Office Land Trust) (Albemarle County Land Use Plan, page 78) The area designated as Town Center west of Route 29 and south Airport Road is intended as a generally more compact, higher density area containing a mixture of businesses, services, public faclrrltes, residential areas and public spaces, attracting activitieS of all kind. Nearby residential development will be of high enough densities to support many of these uses, This designation replaces the previous patchwork of regional service, office service and industrial service areas in an effort to establish a more unified planning and developme~ process. The Town Center should adhere to the following twelve design principles as further defined in the General Development/Design Guidelines: 1) pedestrian orientation, 2) neighborhood friendly streets and paths, 3) interconnected streets and transportation networks, 4) parks and open spaces, 5) neighborhood centers, 6) buildings and spaces of human scale, 7) relegated parking, 8) mixture of uses, 9) mixture of housing types, 10) redevelopment rather than abandonment, 11) site planning that respects terrain, and 12) clear edges. The Town C~"qter is intended to inco~ features that conserve land, provide a "critical mass" of uses and achieve a high level of interaction of activities. Ultimately, it is intended tha portions of the Town Center include such features as wide sidewalks, on-street parking and parking integrated with uses, multi-story structures and residential uses above commercial and retail uses. Stand-alone residential is also appropriate in an urban form. in addition to oth~ applicable reconmendations of the Comprehensive Plan, ~ Town Center shall be developed in general accord with the Conceptual Master Plan & Design Guidelines for the Hollymead Town Center, dated July 20, 2001, by Daggett & Gdgg (the ~Master Plan"). General ,DevelopmenlJDesi~in Guidelines The following are general guidelines for the entire area designated as a Town Center in the Hollymead Community. LAND USE and DENSITY A mix of residential and non-residential land uses shall be provided within the Town Center, including Urban Density Residential (0 to 34 du/ac.), Office Service Community Service, Public/institutional uses including parks and greenways, and Regional Sewice and compatible Industrial Service. Uses not considered desirable for this area include heavy industrial and manufacturing uses, and other large land consuming uses, such as warehousing (including self storage facilities), and auto dealerships. Commer~al and residential development should strive to u~ achieve higher densiC~s than those achieved historically. Development in some areas of the Town Center, particta~y in the Mixed Use/Regional Service Area, likely will not provide as high a density initially or in the foreseeable future 4 as densities achievable in ~ areas of the Town Center, but development in all areas should be designed so as no{ to preclude higher densities, through subsequent redevelopment and/or infill, when the market demographics are such as will justify and support denser development features, including structured parking and multi-story retail. The desired overall density for the'ultimate build- out of the Town Center is a FAR of .50. The desired .50 FAR overall density contemplates a net of all open space, road, street and travel ways, as well as public amenities. Nothing herein shall be interpreted as limiting the FAR for the Town Center. While it is desirable for single story buildings to not exceed 65,000 square feet, it is recognized that large stores, some much larger than 65,000 square feet on one level, such as department stores, home improvement stores and supermarkets, are appropriate in the Mixed Use/Regional' Service Area (see Master Plan, Figure 14A). Issues of bulk, massing and pedestrian accessibility for all buildings, but particularly for single story stores over 65,000 square feet, may be addressed through various design concepts, such as building facade/roof-line treatments, building orientation and/or other measures, so as to dilute their appearance as large, monolithic bc~xes and to facilitate subdividing these stores in the event of the need for re-tenanting with smaller stores. A significant residential component should be located wffhin the designated Town Center area, both mixed ~ other commercial/office uses and within walking distance (approx. % n-~le from core commercial center. Development of this area pursuant to approval of an overall development plan for the Town Ca~er is desired. Approval of Development Plans for portions of the Town Center may be necessary and appropriate in certain situations, but should be in general accord with the Master Plan. SITE DESIGN To achieve the intent of the Master Plan: All building facades visible from a public road should continue design elements present on the front of the building. Buildings should be oriented to streets and parking relegated as addressed in the Master Plan. · Site development should respect the terrain and use appropriate design techniques to minimize clearing and grading activities. Roof design should mitigate the visual impact of larger scale structures and associated buildings, especially considering the ~ location of this area along a ridgeline. · Loading docks, trash collection facile, outdoor storage and related facilities should be incorporated into building design so they are not visible. · Metal buildings should not be permiffed. · A system of walkways and bikeways should be included in site design. Parking: 5 -Parking in excess of that necessary to support individual uses in the Town Center is discouraged. -Parking should be centralized where appropriate. Cooperative parking arrangements encouraged where feasible. are -On-street parking should be incorporated into road design for categories of streets where on-street parking is contemPlated in the Master Plan. -Large parking areas should be divided into smaller components using travel ways and median breaks with trees and other landscaping matedal used to minimize visual impacts and heat generated by large areas of pavement. -Minimize parking areas between streets and buildings, as addressed in the Master Plan. Establish a landscape edge on the east side of the Town Center along Route 29 consistent with the ultimate design of Route 29 (urban or rural cross-section design) generally contemplated in the Master Plan. TRANSPORTATION, TOWN CENTER AREA (See also the TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT section for specific recommendations for improvements along the Route 29 Corridor) Transit service should be provided as soon as operation is feasible and site design should accommodate future transit service. All roads should be designed with the intent of providing pedestrian fdendly neighborhood oriented streets. All roads in this area should be constructed as an urban cross-section, with sidewalks, and street landscaping. Lower design speeds and minimizing road width (number of through lanes) should be encouraged. However, on-street parking should be encouraged where appropriate. A system of bike lanes should be accommodated as generally depicted in the Master Plan, including all roads, which connect to lands: adjacent to the Town Center. The road network for the Town Center should consist of a system of interconnected streets forming a network of blocks. The network should consist of a minimum of two (2) north-south roads with crossing streets creating a block pattern. Shorter block lengths consistent with the intent of creating a walkable community should be provided. The desirable block lengths would be between 200 and 300 feet, although longer block lengths may be permissible based on traffic, topographic, and/or other site conditions. The Town Center road network should include connections to Route 29 at Timberwood Boulevard and Hollymead Ddve, and provide for access to Airport Road at two (2) locations: 1) the future North Fork Research Park access on Airport Road; and, 2) a future crossover located just west of the U. S. Post Office Building. One mid-point access between Hollymead Odve and TimbenNood Drive may utilize a new crossover on Route 29, if warranted by traffic studies and conditions. Given the current road infrastructure in the vicinity of the Town Center, such a crossover is an important element of the Town Center and is a critical ingredient for a Boulevard/Main Street entrance into the development from Route 29. Once the ultimate transportation network for the Town Center and surrounding environs is in place the continuing need for such a crossover may be reconsidered, The north/south parallel road should be designed as a "Boulevard"or "Main Street"(as depicted in Figures 4 and 5 of the Master Plan), recognizing that while carrying a higher volume of traffic, it also serves as an important Neighborhood Street within the Town Center concept. As such, the road needs to ~te pedestrians, cyclists, transit service and contribute positively to the character of the area. Other streets in the Town Ca~er may be designed as a "Main Street,' 'Avenue," "Neigh~ Street,' or"Way" depending on the character and intensity of development in the area (Master Plan, Figures 5, 6, and 7). Pedestrian and bicycle systems and transit access should be provided throughout the Town Center, with a continuous walkway and travel way provided from Airport Road and Route 29 North. Pedestrian activity is encouraged. Sidewalks on both sides of streets built ten (10) feet wide or greater should be provided in high-density areas, with four (4) feet minimum width on some streets elsewhere as contemplated in the Master Plan. A park and ride lot should be established near the Town Center area. A network of subsidiary cross streets linking all major roads in a street block system should be established throughout the larger site. Linkages shall be made to existing developed areas where possible (Deerwood, Forest Springs). Grade separated vehicular cmssi~ of Route 29 are recommended at Timberwood Boulevard and Hollymead Drive. Bi~cl~pedestrian facilities shall be provided as part of grade separated crossings to provide pedestrian connectivity between the east and west sides of Route 29. These should be located at or near Timberwood Boulevard and Hotlymead Drive. Sidewalks and bike facilities shall also be provided to link to planned facilities along Airport Road as contemplated in the Master Plan. PUBLIC SPACE AND PUBUC FACmES/SERVICES Open space, recreation areas and public spaces shall be provided to serve patrons, employees, and community residents. Development of public open space/features such as a public square, traffic circles, and "pocket park(s)" should be provided throughout the Town Center area, A g~ shall be established along the stream forming the western and so.hem botmdary of the Town Center and should include ~alki-ng and bike trails and other features/amer~'e& This greenway and associated trails should extend across Route 29 to link to the residential areas east of Route 29 and ultimately to the proposed greenway along Powell Creek. The Community Facilities Plan indicates a need for a public library and police substation in the Hotlymead Community. The Town Center may be a desirable location for these ~ other such public facilities. Space shall be mede available for a recycling center (not counted against square footage limits). ENVIRONMENT Regional stonnwater facir~ies should be established to serve this portion of the Hollymead Community. Exemplary specimen or old growth trees that may exist in this area should be preserved to the extent practicable. Area landscaping shall minimize water requirements. 7 LEWIS AND CLARK FESTIVAL DAY ~/ttEREJS, Albemarle County is the birthplace of Meriwether Lewis and home to many sites that were influential to his l~fe and upbringing; and Albemarle County is home to Monticello, residence of Thomas Jefferson who chartered the Corps of Discovery and directed its exploration of the west; and some of the planning, ouOqtting and training of leaders of the Corps of Discover occurred within Albemarle County; and ~REAS, many of the art~facts of the expedition, as collected and catalogued by members of the Corps of Discovery, were permanently displayed at Monticello in Albemarle County; and Albemarle County is a sponsor of the Lewis and Clark Festival which will be celebrated on October 13 and 14, 200I, and is an active participant in the upcoming bicentennial observance of the Lewis and Clark Expedition which will begin in Jamtary, 2003; NOW, THEREFORE, I, Sally tt.

Lloyd-Reese by deed dated August 6, 1968, recorded in Deed Book 449, page 131. The property is described in h\DEP~Building & Zoning\Determin of Parcel\Whitehall 122- 12A & 31.doc Whitehall Farm October 3, 2001 Page 3 this deed as being composed of two parcels. Parcel #1 containing 205.5 acres and comprised of Lots 1,2, 3, 4 and 5 on the plat by Hugh Simms recorded in Deed Book 269, page 329.

There have been no off-conveyances from either Parcel 12 A or Parcel 31 since this transaction. None of the above transactions served to combine the lots. Therefore, Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and a 6.5 acre portion of Lot 8 shown on plats recorded in Deed Book 269, pages 328 - 329 and Deed Book 1216, pages 240 - 241 are determined to be "parent parcels", each with a full compliment of development rights.

This property is identified as the same three tracts conveyed bY George and Ruth Huff to Robert and Patricia Byrom on September 17, 1964 by a deed recorded in Deed Book 402, page 22. Deed Book 402, page 22, dated September 17, 1964, conveyed 817 acres from George and Ruth Huff to Robert and Patricia Byrom. That property was described as being the I:\DEP-RBuilding & Zoning\Determin of Parcel\Byrom 6-16 & 29 ACE.doc Cottonwood Farm Determination October 1,2001 Page 2 same land in all respects that was conveyed to Georg~ Huff by three deeds. One of those was the deed of Jack Kegley and D. B. Marshall dated July 17, 1964 conveying 117 acres recorded in Deed Book 399, page 555. This parcel was identified on the 1980 tax map as Parcel 16. Deed Book 1114, page 507, dated July 11, 1990, is a deed of exchange between Henley Forest, Inc. and Robert M. Byrom and Patricia A. Byrom. The plat recorded with the deed by Roudabush, Gale and Assoc., dated May 24, 1990 and approved on June 9, 1990 has a note stating that the rights of division are not affected by this plat. The residue acreage is shown to be 115.35 acres. The deed makes no reference to the chain of title. However, the plat references Deed Book 402, page 22. There have been no off-conveyances since the above transaction. The tax map shows a road traVersing Parcel 16. However, this road is not in the secondary road system. It does not sever the property so as to create an additional parcel under the Sanford case. Based on this history, Tax Map 6, Parcel 16 is determined to have five (5) development rights. This parcel is entitled to these development rights if all Other applicable regulations can be met. These development rights are theoretical in nature but do represent the maximum number of lots containing less than twenty one acres allowed to be created by right. Our records indicate Tax Map 6, Parcel 29 contains 484.240 acres and one (1) dwelling. The most recent deed for this parcel is recorded in Deed Book 1306, page 729. The parcel is not in an Agricultural and Forestal District. The most recent deed for this property prior to the date of adoption of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance (December 10, 1980) is also recorded in Deed Book 690, page 844 which is described above. That deed referenced three tracts of land described in Deed Book 402, page 22, also described above. Deed Book 402, page 22, dated September 17, 1964 conveyed 817 acres from George and Ruth Huff to Robert and Patricia Byrom. That property was described as being the same land in all respects that was conveyed to George Huff by three deeds. Two of those deeds conveyed separate tracts identified on the 1980 tax map as Parcel 28 and Parcel 29. These are described as follows: Deed of Lucy Walton and others dated December 27, 1957 conveying 345 acres recorded in Deed Book 337, page 305. This parcel appeared on the 1980 tax map as parcel 28 or 29. l:\DEPT~Building & Zoning\Determin of Parcel\Byrom 6-16 & 29 ACE.doc Cottonwood Farm Determination October 1, 2001 Page 3 Deed of Ruby Knight and Husband dated December 27, 1957 conveying 355 acres recorded in Deed Book 337, page 193.

This property is designated as the Residence Tract on a plat by Morris Foster dated December 15, 1985. As a result of this conveyance, notes on the plat stated that the residue of Parcel 28 contained 307.22 acres and the residue of Parcel 29 contained 334.1.7 acres. The plat was silent with respect to development rights assigned to the Residence Tract. Deed Book 1,306, page 729, dated February 14, 1993 is a certificate of plat. The plat by Morris foster, revised on February 15, 1993 shows Tracts A, B, C, and D, a division of Parcels 28 and 29, the property of Robert M. Byrom and Patricia A. Byrom. Tract A, containing 42.87 acres was divided from Parcel 29. It was assigned 2 development rights. Tract B, containing 44.27 acres was divided from Parcel 29. It was assigned 3 development rights. Tract C, containing 43.40 acres was divided from Parcel 28. It was assigned 3 development rig hts. Tract D, containing 65.29 acres was divided from Parcel 28. It was assigned 2 development rights. The assignment of these ten development rights exhausted the development rights associated with the original parcel 28 and the original parcel 29. These two parcels may create as many lots containing a minimum of twenty one acres as they have land to make.

It is the County Attorney's advisory opinion and my official determination that Tax Map 97, Parcel 21B consists of two (2) separate parcels. The bulk of the property, located on the east side of Route 698, contains two (2) theoretical development rights. There is no limitation on the size of the parcels that may be created using these development rights. The sliver of land located on the west side of Route 698 near Parcel 21 is a separate parcel. It contains one (1) or two (2) development rights depending on the acreage. The basis for this determination is provided below. Our records indicate Tax Map 97, Parcel 21B contains 565.363 acres and no (0) dwellings. The most recent deed for this parcel is recorded in Deed Book 1507, page 364. The parcel is included in the Chalk Mountain Agricultural and Forestal District. Deed Book 335, page 590, dated November 7, 1957, conveyed 418.5 acres from Harry H. Powell & Amanda J. Powell to Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring. This property is described as being assessed as three tracts of 210 acres, 42 acres and 166.5 acres. These tracts are described as follows: (1) 210 acres conveyed to Joseph S. Hudson by Shepherd Eades by deed dated June 9, 1954, recorded in Deed Book 52, page 19. This is generally known as the Eades Property. (2) About 166 acres conveyed to Joseph S. Hudson by the will of Joseph Wingfield, recorded in Will Book 28, page 97. This is designated as the two upper mountain fields with woodland attached. h\DEPT~Buitding & Zoning\Determin of Parcel\Mehring 97-21B ACE.doc 70-02-01 P72:05 IN Mehring Family Partnership October 1,2001 Page 2 (3) A tract of land assessed as 42 acres and conveye(~-as 100 acres to Joseph S. Hudson by George Perkins, Trustee, and S. A. Burch & wife, recorded in Deed Book 95, page 283. Deed Book 338, page 562 is a deed of correction dated February 15, 1958 that relies on a plat by T. W. Saunders dated January 1, 1958. The deed conveyed 611.2 acres from Harry H. Powell & Amanda J. Powell to Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring. This acreage figure more accurately describes the property conveyed to Walter and Sara Mehring by a deed recorded in Deed Book 335, page 590. There is no record of any deed recorded between Deed Book 335, page 590 and Deed Book 338, page 562 that would have conveyed this property back to Powell prior to recording the deed of correction. The January 1, 1958 plat by T.W. Saunders, recorded with this deed is titled, "Plat Showing Tract of Land...for Walter H. Jr. and Sara Mehring." Although this deed references Deed Book 335, page 590, it identifies the property as "a tract of land." There is no reference to this parcel being comprised of separate tracts. County real estate records show that three tracts were combined in 1959 on the basis of this deed and plat. The tracts 'were not combined for the convenience of the County. Based on these factors, this tract is determined to have been combined into one parcel. This deed also served to establish a boundary between the property of Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring and the property of J. B. Toms & Dultry M. Toms, Ashby S. Toms & Mamie T. Toms and B. T. Toms & Mintie W. Toms. Deed Book 650, page 752 is the most recent deed for this property recorded prior to the date of adoption of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance, December 10, 1980. This deed, dated July 7, 1978 conveyed 11.09 acres from Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring to Walter H. Mehring, Ill & Paula H. Mehring. This is a portion of the property of Walter and Sara Mehring, containing 611.2 acres shown a plat by T. W. Saunders recorded in Deed Book 338, page 564. The 11.09 acres is identified on Tax Map 97 as Parcel 21A. The accompanying plat by R. O. Snow & Associates showed the residue retained 600.14 acres. Deed Book 750, page 402, dated October 20, 1982 conveyed 11.48 acres from Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring to Peter R. Mehring & Leslie M. Mehring.

Mehring to Walter H. Mehring III and Paula H. Mehring. This tract was combined with Parcel 21A on a plat by Morris Foster dated May 10, 1995. No development rights were conveyed with this transaction. After this conveyance the residue contained 573.08 +/- acres and four (4) development rights. Deed Book 1479, page 250 dated June 27, 1995 is a deed of gift that conveyed 565 +/- acres from Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring to the Mehring Family Limited Partnership. This conveyance included all of the 611.2 acres shown on the plat recorded at Deed Book 338, page 562 except for the following: (1) 7.722 acres conveyed with this deed and shown on a plat by Morris Foster dated June 15, 1995 that is attached to this deed. This parcel is assigned two (2) development rights. A note on the plat stated the residue may be divided into two parcels not to exceed 11.796 acres in aggregate area. This tract is identified as Parcel 21 on Tax Map 97. The residue is identified as Parcel 21B. After this conveyance the residue contained 565.36 +/- acres and two (2) development rights. (2) 11.09 acres conveyed on July 7, 1978 and recorded in Deed Book 650, page 752. This is a parent created prior to the adoption of the ordinance.

(4) 11.48 acres conveyed on October 20, 1982 and recorded in Deed Book 750, page 402. One (1) development right was used to create this parcel. This is identified on Tax Map 97 as Parcel 22. h\DEPT~Building & Zoning\Determin of Parcel\Mehdng 97-21B ACE.doc Mehring Family Partnership October 1,2001 Page 4 It is determined that the limitation on the acreage of fu;~Jre parcels divided from Parcel 21B was noted on the plat attached to this deed is in error. The "31 acre rule" in section 10.3.1 does not apply to parcels divided between the effective date of the ordinance and November 8, 1989. Parcel 22 was divided from the subject property on October 20, 1982. Deed Book 1507, page 364, dated November 28, 1995 is a deed of correction that conveyed the same 565 +/- acres from Walter H. Mehring, Jr. & Sara C. Mehring to the Mehring Family Limited Partnership as was described in Deed Book 1479, page 250. The deed was corrected to reflect that the conveyance was not a gift but a transfer to the grantee in exchange for partnership interests of equal value to the property herein conveyed. This property includes a small sliver of land on the west side of State Route 698. This is determined to be a separate parcel of land in accord with Ann S. Sanford v. Board of Zoning Appeals of Albemarle County, Virginia. The acreage of this parcel is not shown on any of the above referenced plats. Based on this history, the portion of Tax Map 97, Parcel 21B located on the east side of State Route 698 is determined to have two (2) development rights. The parcel on the west side of State Route 698 has one (1) or two (2) development rights depending on the acreage. These parcels are entitled to the noted development rights if all other applicable regulations can be met. These development rights are theoretical in nature but do represent the maximum number of lots containing less than twenty one acres allowed to be created by right. In addition to the development right lots, a "parent parcel" may create as many parcels containing a minimum of twenty-one acres as it has land to make. If you are aggrieved by this determination, you have a right to appeal it within thirty days of the date notice of this determination is given, in accordance with Section 15.2-2311 of the Code of Virginia.

STAFF CONTACT(S): Messrs. Tucker, Breeden; Ms. White AGENDA DATE: October 10, 2001 ACTION: X CONSENT AGENDA: ACTION: ATTACHMENTS: Yes REVIEWED BY: ITEM NUMBER: INFORMATION: INFORMATION: BACKGROUND: The Code of Virginia {}15.2-2507 stipulates that the County must hold a public hearing to amend its budget if the additional appropriated amounts exceed 1% of the original budget or $500,000, whichever is the lesser. The Code section applies to all funds, i.e., Capital, E-911, School Self-Sustaining, etc., not just the General Fund or County's adopted operating budget. DISCUSSION: This proposed FY01 Budget Amendment totals $935,387.60. The chart below breaks out the estimated expenditures and revenues for the amendment in the General Fund, School Fund, and various Grants/Programs Funds.

A detailed description of these appropriations is provided on Attachment A. RECOMMENDATION: Staff requests approval of the FY01 Budget Amendment in the amount of $935,387.60 and approval of Appropriation #20083, 20084, 20085, 20087, 20088, 20089, and 20090 as detailed on the appropriation forms, which can be found in the Clerk's Office. 01.190 APPROPRIATION #20083 Appropriations Attachment A $150,000.00 Comprehensive Services Act Mandated services for special education (residential and non-residential) exceeded projections. Funding will be provided by additional state revenues and a transfer from the School Fund for their share of the additional expenses. APPROPRIATION #20084 $26,500.00 Funding for Metropolitan Planning Organization Grant The 2000/01 Unified Planning Work Program was prepared by the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission for the Charlottesville Albemarle Metropolitan Planning Organization. The program includes transportation studies and ongoing planning activities, including a Transportation Improvement Program that lists roads and transit improvement for the upcoming three years, and the 20-year Charlottesville Area Transportation study updated every five years. Other activities address traffic congestion, city-county bicycle and pedestrian improvements, and public-private transit development. Activity in the later part of the fiscal year requires approval of expenses incurred for these studies. APPROPRIATION #20085 $3,809.50 Funding for Traffic Safety Grant Traffic activity continues to increase in the County of Albemarle. The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles recognizes this problem and has funded grants using federal pass through monies to increase traffic enforcement through selective enforcement assignments employing officers working overtime. This grant commenced October 1, 1999 and extended through September 30, 2001. A balance of $3,809.50 remains to be appropriated in 2000/01. There is no local match. APPROPRIATION #20087 $ 90,000.00 Additional Funding for Family Support Program Expenditures exceeded projections; fully covered by additional federal revenues. APPROPRIATION #20088 29,959.58 Funding for School Programs The Preschool Grant was not fully expended in FY 99/00. The grant carryover amount of $19,959.58 retained by the State may be appropriated for FY 00/01. These funds will help cover additional preschool summer school expenses. The Regional Education Program (PREP) was funded in the school budget for FY 00/01 in the amount of $1,251,694.00. It is requested that the fund balance of $10,000 be re-appropriated for FY 00/01 to help cover additional expenses in the PREP Program. APPROPRIATION #20089 $281,018.52 Funding for School Programs The Albemarle County Public Schools Summer Program incurred additional expenditures and received additional revenue exceeding the budget appropriation in the amount of $42,000.00. These additional revenues will be used to pay teacher salaries. The Adult Basic Education Program had a shortfall of $922.00 for FY00-01. The program mandates a 15% match of local funds. It is requested that $922.00 be transferred from the School Fund to adequately meet the grant mandate. The General Adult Education Program is a federally funded program that provides instructional services to meet the needs of adults who are working toward a high school diploma. The actual revenues received exceeded the anticipated revenues by $4,768.00. There is also a fund balance from FY99-00 in the amount of $3,317.90. These funds will help to cover the expenses of General Adult Education for FY00-01. Albemarle County Public Schools (ACPS) is a partner in Virginia's four-year old Preschool Initiative, Bright Stars. As part of this partnership ACPS provides transportation and meals (breakfast, lunch, snack) to participating children through the United States Department of Agriculture's Child Care and Adult Day Care Program. The program reimburses the school division for meals based on the student's participation and qualification for free or reduced priced meals. The reimbursement received was $34,823.60. There is also a fund balance from FY99- 00 in the amount of $1,538.83. These funds will help cover the Bright Stars program expenditures for FY00-01. The Program for Seamless Transition (POST) grant award was not fully expended in FY99-00. The grant has a fund balance in the amount of $5,648.19. These funds need to be re-appropriated in FY00-01. The Vehicle Maintenance Fund exceeded its appropriated budget dudng FY00-01 due to higher than anticipated fuel costs and greater usage. This fund was established several years ago to remove the fuel, lubricants, and parts expenses associated with the maintenance of outside vehicles from the School Fund. This fund contains all of the fuel, lubricants, and parts used to repair both local government vehicles and other vehicles serviced and fueled at the School system's repair facility. It is requested that $188,000.00 be re-appropriated to cover these expenditures. The Comprehensive Services Act (CSA), implemented in 1993, is the primary funding source for at-risk children and families who are either in foster care, involved with the juvenile court system, or require residential or day treatment services because of their special education needs. The School Division is fiscally responsible for costs associated with providing special education services to those children served under the CSA. A final estimate of these costs has been completed for FY00-01. There has been a steady increase in the number of children with significant emotional or behavioral issues who reside in Albemarle County. This placed serious demands on funds set aside to address the mandates of the CSA. Although it is difficult to predict with absolute accuracy what may be the final expenses for the FY01-02 school year, it is assumed that will be no noticeable decrease in the demand for these services in the foreseeable future. As projected in the financial reports provided to the Board during the year, there has been some savings associated with the reduced enrollment for FY01-02. The funds allocated for use for this Teacher Salary code were not required to meet expenses and, therefore, can be reallocated to meet this unanticipated expense. It is requested that $55,596.02 be transferred from the teachers salary account to the CSA fund. APPROPRIATION #20090 $354,100.00 Funding for FY 00101 Over Expenditures The following activities exceeded appropriations for FY 01: · Juvenile Court - Salary adjustment and pay-off of accrued leave for terminating employee. Revenues to offset costs are provided by Virginia Juvenile Justice Crime contract Act funds (VJCCA). Shedff - Overtime wages for contracted external security activities; reimbursable overtime revenues from these activities also exceeded projections. Regional Jail - The FY 01 County budget was prepared based on a projected inmate census of 121,345. However, the actual FY01 inmate census was 154,278, an increase of 27% over projections. As a result of this, the per diem charge to the localities substantially exceeded the jail's budget projections. Towe Park - Repairs and maintenance exceeded projections by $1,100. Local shares increased due to a shortfall in program revenues. Refunds - Increase in refunds due to PPTR (Personal Property Tax Relief). Leased vehicles must be certified as eligible by leasing company and often this occurs after original bill is paid. Also, a large license refund was made to a business that discontinued operations in the County. Education - Expenditures exceeded budget in four categories: Administration - $20,000; Transportation - $95,000; Maintenance - $150,000; Construction - $50,000. Increased fuel and utility costs are the main factors. These costs will be offset by reduced expenditures in the Instructional category.

COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE EXECUTIVE SUM MARY AGENDA TITLE: SP 01-17 Merrie Meadows SU BJECT/PROPOSAI-/REQUEST: Board of Supervisors deferred consideration of a special use permit for a Church until October 10, 2001, in order to review information provided by the applicant. STAFF CONTACT(S): Tucker, Foley, Cilimberg, McDowell AGENDA DATE: October 10, 2001 ACTION: X CONSENT AGENDA: ACTION: ITEM NUMBER: INFORMATION: INFORMATION: ATTACHMENTS: Yes REVIEWED BY: / BACKGROUND: On September 19, 2001, the Board deferred SP 01-17 until October 10, 2001, in order for staff to review additional information provided by the applicant regarding the church relationship with the camp and its meetings. As previously discussed, SP 1985-035, a special use permit allowing four cabins for weekend lodging/camping two times a year was approved with a condition that restricted the camp use to the owner rather than the property. When the owner transferred the property into a family trust, the special use permit became invalid. DISCUSSION: The Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000 restricts governments from imposing or implementing land use regulations" in a manner that imposes a substantial burden on the religious exercise of a person, including a religious assembly or institution" unless there is a compelling governmental interest and the regulation is the least restrictive means for furthering that interest. Based u pon the applicant's statements at the Board's September 9, 2001, public hearing and written materials thereafter submitted, staff has determined that the camping events associated with the congregation are accessory to the primary church use. Cumulative impacts resulting from both the church and potential accessory uses require further review by zoning, engineering, and the Health Department. These mpacts include noiSe, lights, traffic, and water, septic and waste management issues. It should be noted that the new information regarding the camp events as accessory to the church was not available at the time of the Planning Commission hearing. In addition, any new conditions of approval resulting from this information will not have been reviewed by the Commission. The Commission believed that the camping events would require a separate special use permit; therefore, the Commission's recommendation for approval did not consider camping events as an accessory use. Therefore, the Board of Supervisors may choose to refer this application back to the Planning Commiss ion for reconsideration. RECOMMENDATION: In order to allow staff adequate time to review impacts associated with the camping events, staff recommends the Board of Supervisors defers action on this request and, if the Board deems warranted, refer this application back to the Planning Commission for their reconsideration and recommendation. 01.192 COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE Department o£ Planning & Community Development 401 McIntire Road, Room 218 Charlottesville, Virginia 22902-4596 ~804) 296 - 5823 Fax (804~ 972 - 4012 October 1, 2001 David M.

The property, described as Tax Map 56A3 Parcel 9A, contains approximately 0.71 acres, and is located in the White Hall Magisterial District on Three Notch'd Road [Route #240] across from the old Con Agra facility. The property is zoned LI (Light Industrial). The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Rural Area 3. STAFF CONTACT(S): Mr. Barnes; Mr. Cilimberg AGENDA DATE: October 10, 2001 ACTION: CONSENT AGENDA: ITEM NUMBERS: INFORMATION: ACTION: No INFORMATION: ATTACHMENTS: Yes · Revised S ketch Plan dated 10/4/01 REVIEWED BY: BACKGROUND: At its October 2, 2001 Public Hearing, the Planning Commission considered the following staff- recommended conditions: 1. The owner shall provide for the parking and directional signage in general accord with the improvements shown on the sketch plan, prepared by Raymond E. Gaines, Architect titled "Crozet Laundry" and last revised 9/19/01 prior to opening the laundromat use granted under this Special Use Permit. The individual parking spaces shall be permanently delineated on the site. 2. The owner shall close the eastern most access point on Tax Map 56A3 Parcel 9A in a manner that meets with the approval of the Albemarle County Department of Engineering and Public Works. The requirements of this condition shall be preformedprior to opening the laundromat use granted under this Special Use Permit. 3. The applicant shall provide a traffic island or bollards to protect the parking space designated number "1" on the sketch plan. DISCUSSION: Upon review of the plan and the conditions, the Planning Commission recommended that the applicant alter the two-way circulation pattern on the western side of the site. The Commission asked the applicant to remove the two-way circulation and make the entire site a one-way circulation running counter-clockwise around the building. They also asked the applicant to convert the perpendicular spaces, labeled "1-5" on the Sketch plan, into four angled spaces. The applicant has agreed to this revision and has submitted a revised sketch plan illustrating the Commission's recommended changes (Attachment A). The third, staff-recommended condition to the Commission asked the applicant to add a traffic island or bollard to protect the parking space labeled "1". The applicant has provided for the bollard on the latest version of the sketch plan. In the Planning Commission Action Letter, the recommendations of the Commission were.. conveyed descriptively in writing to the Board. Since the applicant has supplied a plan rews~on detailing the Commission's recommended changes, staff is now providing the Board with two revised conditions which will clarify the matter and simplify the implementation of the Special Use Permit Conditions. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Special Use Permit with the following conditions: 1. The owner shall provide for the parking and directional signage in general accord with the improvements shown on the sketch plan, prepared by Raymond E. Gaines, Architect titled "Crozet Laundry" and last revised 10/4/01 prior to opening the laundromat use granted under this Special Use Permit. The individual parking spaces shall be permanently delineated on the site. 2. The owner shall close the eastern most access point on Tax Map 56A3 Parcel 9A in a manner that meets with the approval of the Albemarle County Department of Engineering and Public Works.

The location is in an existing building that is part of a series of commercial building along Three Notch'd Road across from the Con Agra Plant. Petition: The applicant_requests a Special Use Permit to allow for a coin operated laundromat in accordance with Section [27.2.2.14] of the Zoning Ordinance which allows for supporting commercial uses. The property, described as Tax Map 56A3 Parcel 9A, contains approximately 0.71 acres, and is located in the White Hall Magisterial District on Three Notch'd Road [Route #240] across from the old Con Agra facility. The property is zoned LI (Light Industrial). The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Rural Area 3. Applicant's Justification for the Request: The applicant has identified the need for a Laundromat and drop-off service in the Crozet area. Currently, the only laundromats available to western Albemarle residents are either in Waynesboro or Charlottesville. The applicant has chosen the proposed location within Crozet because of a lack of available commercial space within Crozet. The site also has a natural gas hook-up that is integral to the applicant's business. Character of the Area: The proposed location is on Route 240 (Three Notch'd Road) (See Attachment A). To the east of the property is a small lot that is vacant and covered with grass on TMP 56A3-11. The former Con Agra Plant is located across Route 240 (TMP 56A3-8). The annex for the Con Agra plant (TMP 56A3-7) is to the west of the subject property. The Con Agra employee parking lot is behind the subject property. The building proposed for the laUndromat is on one of four properties owned Jeff Sprouse. If approved, the laundromat will share space within the same building as a video store. The video store is located on TMP 56A3-9A. To the west, Theresa's Restaurant is located in an old house on TMP 56A3-9B. Between and behind the restaurant and the video store is a single family home on TMP 56A3-9. Finally, there is a vacant lot directly behind the video store, TMP 56A3-9C, which is paved and is also owned by Mr. Sprouse. All of the above mention properties surrounding the laundromat are zoned either LI, Light Industrial, or HI, Heavy Industrial. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Special Use Permit with conditions. Planning and Zoning History: The four properties owned by Mr. Sprouse (9, 9A, 9B, and 9C) share a common history and remained closely tied to each other. All four properties received a rezoning from R-2 to B-I in 1968 (ZMA-027). This rezoning allowed the establishment of a Texaco Service station. In 1980, as a part of the comprehensive Countywide rezoning, these properties were rezoned from B-1 (Commercial) to LI (Light Industrial). From 1980 to 1992, the house on the adjacent property (Parcel 9B) received a series of zoning clearances to allow for a wide range of business from restaurants to auto sales to tax services. These businesses did not require a Special Use Permit. In 1998, the Board approved a Special Use Permit for Theresa's Restaurant (SP 98-048) which allowed the restaurant as a supporting commercial use in an industrial district. The parcel under consideration for this Special Use Permit (Parcel 9A) also has a long history. Currently, there is one building on this parcel with three individual spaces. The first floor of the building was originally the "damaged goods" outlet store for the Con Agra Plant. This store closed in 1998. Currently half of this space is occupied by a video store. (The video store was in the house on Parcel 9B, but moved to its current location when SP 98-048 was granted.) The other half of the Con Agra Store became the La Boricua Mexican Grocery Store in 2000. This use was granted without a Special Use Permit because the Mexican Grocery applied for a Zoning Clearance within two years of the Con Agra Store vacating the premises. Now that the Mexican Grocery has left, the applicant has applied for a Special Use Permit for the laundromat. The final space within this building is on the second floor. It is an office space and is current vacant. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan shows this property within the Rural Area. It was designated as a Rural Area to discourage development within the Beaver Creek water supply reservoir watershed. (Beaver Creek Reservoir is the water supply of Crozet.) The change in land use designation to Rural Area was accompanied by the County's comprehensive rezoning. This comprehensive rezoning change the parcel's zoning from B-1 to LI in order to allow for continued use of the existing development in accord with the adjoining uses. The Crozet Community Study, which is also a part of the Comprehensive Plan, recommends that all new commercial activities be locatedin the downtown area of Crozet. The Crozet Community Study included this area as part of Crozet's "Downtown". Within the Community Study, relevant recommendations for the downtown area are: · Strengthen the downtown as a shopping area and the focal point of the Crozet Community by encouraging all new commercial uses to locate in the downtown as opposed to Route 250 · Encourage residential uses to locate in and near downtown to increase pedestrian activity and make the area more vibrant · Establish a human scaled environment which is compatible and visually integrated with the existing downtown and surrounding residential areas · Encourage new commercial development through redevelopment, reuse, and infill. New commercial development should occur in a style and scale in keeping With traditional buildings. · Have parking provided at the side and rear of buildings · Have mixed uses including commercial and residential uses in the same buildings · Provide a pedestrian environment Staff believes that the proposed development is in keeping with the Crozet Community Study because it is close enough to the downtown to be considered a part of it. The proposal also meets several of the Crozet Community Study's goal it is a redevelopment of an existing structure and will provide a majority of the parking on the Side or behind the building. The Neighborhood Model Staff has also analyzed this proposal for conformity with Land Use Standards for Designated Development Areas (General Land Use Standards pp. 20 - 22) of the Comprehensive Plan and with the 12 principles of the Neighborhood Model. These principles are identified below and highlighted within this section for context within the Land Use Plan. The 12 principles of the Neighborhood Model are as follows: · Pedestrian Orientation · Neighborhood Friendly Streets and Paths · Interconnected Streets and Transportation Networks · Parks and Open Space · Neighborhood Centers · Buildings and Spaces of Hnman Scale · Relegated Parking · Mixture of Uses · Mixture of Housing Types and Affordability · Redevelopment · Site Planning that Respects Terrain · Clear Edges 1. Development should be concentrated and clustered to protect environmental features. (Parks and Open Space; Site Planning that Respects Terrain). The proposal calls for a redevelopment of an existing structure. No expansion of the existing impervious cover or removal of vegetation is proposed. Therefore, there should be no additional impacts to any environmental features. 2. Maintain existing forested areas acting as buffers between subdivisions. The site is surrounded by LI zoned land and parking lots. Staff does not believe buffering is needed. 3. Limit access points to minimize the impact of development on major roads. Of the four properties that Mr. Sprouse owns, two of them front on to Route 240 - Parcels 9A and 9B. These two parcels have four entrances on to Route 240.between them. Both VDOT and the Engineering Department have expressed a desire to eliminate several of these entrances for safety reasons. The owner has a~eed to close the easternmost entrance at this time (see Attachment A). Staff suggests a condition of approval to ensure that the entrance is closed. At some point in the near future, the owner plans to submit a site plan for an additional building on Parcel 9. He also plans to consolidate the four parcels into a single parcel. At that time, he has agreed to eliminate additional entrances. Staff agrees with delaying the other entrance closures until the site plan is submitted so that the entire site is review as a unified development. 4. A sense of community should be maximized by providing connections between developments; such connections may provide for additional recreational facilities, increased open space area, bicycle/pedestrian links, improved public transit, emergency access, and access to schools, parks, and other public facilities. (Pedestrian Access and Interconnected Streets and Transportation Networks) The site currently possesses a sidewalk along Route 240. There is no development directly behind the four properties owned by Mr. Sprouse and therefore staff believes that there is ne reason to provide for pedestrian or vehicular access to the properties behind the development, When and if the landowner decides to re-develop the area behind the video store, pedestrian access may be warranted. 5. Provide for ultimate future transportation improvements and new road locations through the reservation of adequate right-of-way and by designing and constructing utilities in a manner consistent with planned transportation improvements, including auto, bus, bicycle, and pedestrian modes (Pedestrian Access and Interconnected Streets and Transportation Networks). As mentioned above, limiting access to the site by closing one or more of the ingress/ egress points will improve the road conditions along Route 240. At present, the parking lots for Parcels 9A and 9B are a single parking lot. 6. Underground utilities should be provided in new developments. At this time, the owner is not proposing any new structures on the property nor does he plan to put any of the utilities underground at this time. 7. Features to prevent impact from impervious surfaces on water quality should be provided. At this time, the owner is not proposing any new structures on the property and therefore does not have to upgrade the site to comply with the stormwater quantity and quality regulations of the Water Protection Ordinance. If the owner increases the amount of impervious cover (e.g., through either a new building or increasing the parking lot), the Water Protection Ordinance regulations may apply. 8. Building orientation should be to public streets; parking areas do not need to be located exclusively in front of buildings. (Buildings and Spaces of Human Scale; Relegated Parking) The current building faces toward the public street. Most of the parking will be either to the side or behind the building. 4 9. Where site illumination is proposed, down-directed and shielded lights should be used. Any new lighting for the development will have to meet the requirements of the Outdoor Lighting Ordinance (4.17). 10. Historic buildings should be adaptively reused. (Redevelopment) There are no buildings of historical importance on this site. However, this is a reuse of a building with a history of commercial uses. 11. The phasing of developments should match service and infrastructure availability and capacity. Natural gas, water and sewer service is available to serve this development. 12. Overall development density should be as high a level as is practical. At present, the request is for the reuse of an existing building with no residential uses. 13. The integrity of adjacent residential areas should be maintained through use of buffering, screening, and separation of adjacent non-residential uses. There are no adjacent residential areas. 14. Developments should be designed with an internal orientation to foster a sense of place and avoid the image of continuous suburban sprawl. (Buildings and spaces of Human Scale). By closing at least on entrance on Route 240, the project will improve the internal orientation of the site. When and if TM-P 56A3-9 and 9C are re-developed, the applicant will be required to get site plan approval. At this time, .the County will have the chance to further improve the site. The Albemarle County Architectural Review Board will also have a chance to comment on the site. At that time, the owner may have to comply with the Entrance Corridor requirements. 15. Provisions should be made for innovative design that reduces housing costs. (Affordability with Dignity) The project offers no residential component. 16. Lot design and residential layout should be based on a rational use of land that reflects topographic and other physical features rather than massive grading to eliminate or counteract those features. (Site Planning that Respects Terrain) There is no grading proposed in relation to the special use permit. STAFF COMMENT: Staff will address each provision of Section 31.2.4.1 of the Zoning Ordinance below: The Board of Supervisors hereby reserves unto itself the right to issue all special use permits permitted hereunder. Special use permits_for uses as provided in this ordinance may be issued upon a finding by the Board o_f Supervisors that such use will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, If approved, the use is not anticipated to be detrimental to adjacent property. No adverse traffic or noise is expected with the use. The use is considered to be complimentary of and supportive to the nearby and adjacent residential uses. A petition of support was provided from the Crozet Community that indicates the nearby community is in favor of the proposed use and does not view it as detrimental (See Attachment B). Staffhas not compared the names with those of nearby and adjoining property owners; however, no concerns of nearby residents have been raised with staff. that the character q£the district will not be chan~ed thereby, It is unlikely that character o f the industrial zoning district will be changed by the proposed use. and that such use will be in harmony with the purpose and intent qf this ordinance, This request is in keeping with the intent Crozet Study's concepts for a "downtown" type development. It is not in keeping with the Comprehensive Plan's designation of Rural Areas. However, the site has been used as a commercial site for years and there will be no increase to the imperious cover, so no addition traffic, noise or environmental impacts are envisioned. with the uses permitted by right in the district, Permitted uses are related to light industrial activities. It is hard to envision a laundromat negatively affecting any industrial activities. with additional rezulations provided in Section 5. 0 o_f this ordinance, There are no additional regulations in the Supplementary Regulations section of the Ordinance governing a laundromat. and with the public health, safety and general welfare. Staff developed a list of recommended conditions of approval with the applicant, which are included in the recommendation below. Staff believes that, with the conditions recommended, the general welfare of the community will be increased b y decreasing the risk of vehicles entering on to the highway in multiple places. Engineering Analysis: Engineering has reviewed the sketch plan. They have no problems with the proposed parking plan. Their only suggestion for the parking lot is for the applicant to install a bollard or traffic island on the northern most side of the parking space labeled number "1". They have also requested that the all the entrances to Parcels 9A and 9B be consolidated into a single entrance. Furthermore, they request that when the applicant removes these entrances that there be frontage improvements matching the existing curb and sidewalks. However, as an interim solution, staff has determined that the use ofbollards or other means for blocking off vehicUlar access will be sufficient until the applicant receives site plan approval for the planned building on Parcels 9 and 9C. Waiver Requests: Site Plan Requirements The owner has requested a site plan waiver. He has submitted a sketch plan with the application for the special use permit (see Attachment A). Both the Zoning and Engineering Departments and VDOT have agreed that the sketch plan provides adequate information to determine if the points of access canbe safely closed off and parking provided on the site. Under Section 32.2.1 (e) of the Ordinance, a full site plan is required by if there is a change in the points of access to a public road. Since Zoning and Engineering have the information that they require, it is unnecessary to make the applicant create a site plan. Therefore, staff accepts the sketch plan in lieu of the site plan and supports the applicant's request for a site plan waiver under Section 32.2.2. Angled and Parallel Parking Authorization Under Section 4.12.6.5(c), the applicant has requested that the Planning Commission authorized the use of angled and parallel parking within this development. The Engineering Department has found no problems with either the angled or parallel parking on this plan. The Planning Department believes that neither the angled nor parallel parking presents a problem. One- Way Circulation Authorization Under Section 4.12.6.2, the applicant has requested that the Planning Commission authorize the use of one-way circulation within this development. Staffbelieves that the one-way circulation will not pose a significant hazard. Staff recommends that the one-way circulation be limited exclusively to pattern shown on the provided sketch plan. SUMMARY: Staff has identified the following factors, which are favorable to this request: 1. The proposed use fills a demonstrated need in the western part of the County. 2. The proposal adaptively reuses the existing building. 3. The provision of parking and safe ingress/egress be ensured with the conditions recommended by staff and agreed to by the applicant. Staff has identified the following factors, which are unfavorable to this request: 1. The Comprehensive Plan shows this area to be rural and commercial uses in the rural area are not viewed to be in keeping with the Comprehensive Plan. The property, however, has been used for commercial development for year and had commercial zoning prior to the 1980 Comprehensive rezoning of the County. 2. The owner is not prepared to permanently close one of the entrances at this time. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends approval of this special use permit with the following conditions: 1. The owner shall provide for the parking and directional signage in general accord with the improvements shown on the sketch plan, prepared by Raymond E. Gaines, Architect titled "Crozet Laundry" and last revised 9/19/01 prior to opening the laundromat use granted under this Special Use Permit. The individual parking spaces shall be permanently delineated on the site. 2. The owner shall close the eastern most access point on Tax Map 56A3 Parcel 9A in a manner that meets with the approval of the Albemarle County Department of Engineering and Public Works. The requirements of this condition shall be preformed prior to opening the laundromat use granted under this Special Use Permit. 3. The applicant shall provide a traffic island or bollards to protect the parking space designated number "1" on the sketch plan. 7 ATTACHMENTS: A "Sketch Plan" dated 9/19/00 B - Applicant's petition TM 5GA(3) PARCEL TM 5GA(2) PARCEL O I I ~°11-' I/2 5TOP-,Y FRAME EXIST.

STAFF CONTACT(S): Messrs. Tucker, Foley, Cilimberg, Benish AGENDA DATE: October 10, 2001 ITEM NUMBER: ACTION: X INFORMATION: CONSENT AGENDA: ACTION: Yes ATTACHMENTS: REVIEWED BY: INFORMATION: BACKGROUND: A proposal to amend the Lands Use Plan recommendations for this area has been under review by the Planning Commission since the spdng of 1998. In October 2000, the Commission recommended an amendment to change the land use designation from a combination of Office Service, Regional Service and Industrial Service to a Town Center designation which encouraged a mixed-use, urban scale development concept which included residential, as well as retail, service and office uses. During the Board's review of the Planning Commission's recommended amendment, property owners within the proposed Town Center area expressed concern over some of the recommendations in the proposed amendment language. On February 7, 2001, the Board deferred action on the Comprehensive Plan Amendment in order to allow the property owners to develop their-proposal for a master plan for the Town Center consisting of development and design guidelines. A Master Plan was submitted on July 20~ to the Planning Department for review. Staff reviewed the propOsed Master Plan comparing it to the Planning Commission's recommended amendment language. This analysis was presented and discussed at a Board work session on September 5, 2001. Based on the direction received from the Board at that meeting, staff has been working with the property owners to address the major differences between the Planning Commission's recommended amendment and the property owner's proposed Master Plan. DISCUSSION: Attachment A is the Planning Commission's recommended amendment language for the Town, Center, with modifications that address the major issues/differences/inconsistencies with the proposed Master Plan. The changes are in bold or strike through type. Staff comments are provided in bold anditalic print. A summary of the major issues/differences and how they have been addressed is provided below: The recommendation for a floor area ratio (FAR) of .75 in the Commission's amendment for Town Center development This has been addressed by reducing the recommended net FAR to .50 and modifying the text to emphasize that this is an ultimate build out goal (p.4, Attachment A). Site design will need to accommodate future phasing of development or redevelopment to achieve this higher density development. · The limit on compatible Iow FAR regional service uses of no more than '65,000 square feet on a single floor for the Mixed Use/Regional Service area The text has been modified (p.4, Attachment A) to indicate that certain types of retail stores, such as department stores, home improvement and grocery stores, are appropriate for this area and can/will be larger than 65,000, and based on current market/demographic characteristics Will not locate in multi-story buildings. Negative aspects of this form of development (bulk, massing) will be address through architectural treatment, and building and site orientation and design measures. The property owners' proposal for an at-grade crossing (intersection) at the mid-point of the Town Center site between the Timberwood Boulevard and Hollymead Drive The text has been changed to include the possibility of establishing a mid-point access at a new cro-ssover if warranted by traffic studies and conditions (p.7and 9, Attachment A). The recommendation for a one hundred foot undisturbed vegetative buffer along the Town Center frontage of Route 29 The site has been subject to a recent logging activity. No significant vegetation remains along the frontage of Route 29. This recommendation has been removed. in summary, staff has been working with the property owners to come to an agreement on amendment language that addresses these major issues in a manner consistent with the Board's directives. Other, more minor, modifications have also been made to make the Master Plan and amendment language consistent. Staff believes that there is general agreement with the text amendment provided in Attachment A. RECOMMENDATION: if the modifications to the amendment language adequately address the Board's issues, staff recommends approval the text and map amendment. Attachments: A - Revised text amendment B - Hollymead Land Use Plan Map amendment ATTACHMENT A (10-04-01 version) NOTE: Provided below in bold are modifications to the Planning Commission's proposed amendment language reviewed by the Board on September 5, 2001. These modifications make the amendment language more in keeping with the proposed Master Plan, are reflective of the direction provided by the Board during their discussion of the proposal on September 5th, and incorporate changes generally agreed to by the land owners and staff and consistent with the Board's directive. Staff has provided a bdef explanation after the more significant changes. These comments are in bold and italic print. Proposed Language to be added tO the Hollymead Community Profile, Recommendations (page 78, Land Use Plan) The area designated as Town Center west of Route 29 and south of Airport Road is intended as a mixed--user, hi~ generally more compact, higher density area containing a mixture of businesses, services, public facilities, residential areas and c~c thc*. c~rccts public spaces, attracting activities of all kinds. Nearby residential development will be of high enough densities to support many of these uses. This designation replaces the previous patchwork of regional service, office service and industrial service areas in an effort to establish a more unified planning and development process The Town Center should adhere to the following twelve design principles as further defined in the General Development/Design Guidelines; 1) pedestrian orientation, 2) neighborhood fdendly streets and paths, 3) interconnected streets and transportation networks, 4) parks and open spaces, 5) neighborhood centers, 6) buildings and spaces of human scale, 7) relegated parking, 8) mixture of uses, 9) mixture of housing types, 10) redevelopment rather than abandonment, 11) site planning that respects terrain, and 12) clear edges. The Town Center is intended to incorporate features that conserve land, provide a "critical mass" of uses and achieve a high level of interaction of activities. Ultimately, it is intended that portions of the Town ~Center include such features as wide sidewalks, on-street parking and parking integrated with uses, multi- story structures and residential uses above commercial and retail uses. Stand-alone residential is also appropriate in an urban form. in addition to other applicable recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, the Town Center shall be developed in general accord with the Conceptual Master Plan & Design Guidelines for the Hollymead ToWn Center, dated July 20, 2001, by Daggett & Grigg (the "Master Plan"). These additions more fully define the intent of the Hollymead Town Center and identify the proposed Master Plan as a guiding document in the planning/development of the Town Center. General Development/Desi,qn Guidelines The following are general guidelines for the entire area designated as a Town Center in the Hotlymead Community. LAND USE and DENSITY · A mix of residential and non-residential land uses shall be provided within the Town Center, including Urban Density Residential (6 to 34 du/ac.), Office Service Community Service, Public/Institutional uses including parks and greenways,_,'---",.....,., .... .~.,...,...,..~;~"~' Regional Service and compatible Industrial Service. · Uses not considered desirable for this area include heavy industrial and manufacturing uses, and other *'""~;*;'-"'"".,.....,.,.., ,..,,~ large land consuming uses such as warehousing (including self storage facilities), and auto Commercial and residential development should strive to ultimately achieve higher densities than those achieved historically. Development in some areas of the Town Center, particularly in the Mixed Use/Regional Service Area, likely will not provide as high a density initially or in the foreseeable future as densities achievable in other areas of the Town Center, but development in all areas should be designed so as not to preclude higher densities, through subsequent redevelopment and/or infill, when the market demographics are such as will Justify and support denser development features, including structured parking and multi.story retail. The desired overall density for the ultimate build-out of the Town Center is a FAR of .50. The desired .50 FAR overall density contemplates a net of ail open space, road, street and travel ways, as well as public amenities. Nothing herein shall be interpreted as limiting the FAR for the Town Center. While it is desirable for single story buildings to not exceed 65,000 square feet, it is recognized that large stores, some much larger than 65,000 square feet on one level, such as department stores, home improvement stores and supermarkets, are appropriate in the Mixed Use/Regional Service Area (see Master Plan, Figure 14A). Issues of bulk, massing and pedestrian accessibility for all buildings, but particularly for single story stores over 65,000 square feet, may be addressed through various design concepts, such as building fa~',adelroof, line treatments, building orientation and/or other measures, so as to dilute their appearance as large, monolithic boxes and to facilitate subdividing these stores in the event of the need for re-tenanting with smaller stores. The changes above lower the expected ultimate build-out FAR to .5 establish and address the issue of the timing/expectation for achieving the ultimate FAR, specifically for the Mixed Use/Regional Service area. This also eliminates the recommendation that have limited the foot print size of the buildings in the Mixed USe/Regional Service area. A significant residential component ~=..,""*;";""*'~';,,,..,,......~ .......,..=h,~,,',4 ...~,,, located within the designated Town Center, both mixed with other commercial/office uses and within walking distance (approx. % mile from the center of the Town Center). Development of this area =hall bc pursuant to approval of an overall development plan for the Town Center area is desired. Approval of Development Plans for portions of the Town Center may be necessary and appropriate in certain situations, but ~= Icc= de.=~rablo should be in general accord with the Master Plan. SITE DESIGN To achieve the intent of the Master Plan: · All building facades visible from a public road =hall should continue design elements present on the front of the building.

Given the current road infrastructure in the vicinity of the Town Center, such a crossover is an important element of the Town Center and is a critical ingredient for a Boulevard/Main Street entrance into the development from Route 29. Once the ultimate transportation network for the Town Center and surrounding environs is in place the continuing need for such a crossover may be reconsidered. This change allows for the possibility of establishing a cross-over on Route 29 at the mid-point entrance location based on traffic analysis and conditions and staff believes is conalstent with Board's prior discussion on this issue. The north/south parallel road should be designed as a "Boulevard" or 'Main Street" (as depicted in Figures 4 and 5 of the Master Plan), recognizing that while carrying a higher volume of traffic, it also serves as an important Neighborhood Street within the Town Center concept. As such, the road needs to accommodate pedestrians, cyclists, and transit service and contribute positively to the character of the area. Other streets in the Town Center may be designed as a "Main Street," ~Avenue," 'Neighborhood Street," or "Way" depending on the character and intensity of development in the area (Master Plan, Figures 5, 6, and 7). · Pedestrian and bicycle systems and transit access c. ha!l should be provided throughout the Town Center, with a continuous walkway and travel way provided from Airport Road and Route 29 North.

Linkages shall be made to existing developed areas where possible (Dee[wood, Forest Springs). This point has been covered in other recommendations and is no longer necessary. Grade separated vehicular crossings of Route 29 are recommended at Timberwood Boulevard and Hollymead Drive. Bicycle/pedestrian facilities shall be provided as part of grade separated crossings to provide pedestrian connectivity between the east and west sides of Route 29. These should be located at or near Timberwood Boulevard and HollYmead Drive. Sidewalks and bike facilities shall also be provided to link to planned facilities along Airport Road as contemplated in the Master Plan.

Road Improvements, Route 29 Corridor and Proffit Road Amendment to Hollymead Community Profile Recommendations (pp. 78-81) Adopted, 2/7/01 (CPA 2000-05) Transportation improvements include..· (p.80) Recommended improvements along the Route 29 Corridor: 1. Road design and alignment improvements to Route 29 should be in keeping with the emerging community consisting of a mix of residential neighborhoods, and commercial and employment centers. Improvements related to upgrading Route 29 shall be consistent with an overall network of intemonnecting roads that balance the need to serve both the local and regional transportation demands. 2. Parallel or adjunct roads east and west of Route 29 should be designed and located in a manner consistent with other land use and transportation recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. 3. Any system of parallel roads to augment Route 29 should be constructed as an urban cross-section design (curb/gutter) with sidewalks and bike lanes. This creates a system of roads more in keeping with a neighborhood street system and more consistent with the character of the adjacent neighborhoods. 4. Recommendations for road design/classification for the parallel roads are taken from the Albemarle County Neighborhood Model as recommended by the Development Area Initiatives Study Committee (DISC) Report. Road design should be an "Avenue/Residential Boulevard" or"Neighborhood Street" design on the eastern parallel road from Polo Grounds Road to Hollymead Drive; a "Main Street" design on the eastern parallel road from the cemetery to Proffit Road; a "Boulevard" or "Main Street" design on the westem parallel road system transitioning to "Avenue/Residential Boulevard" or "Main Street" south to Hollymead Ddve extended. 5. The eastern parallel road system should extend to Polo Grounds Road (Route 643). 6. The southern end of any western parallel road system should terminate at a connection with Hollymead Drive Extended. 7. Hollymead Ddve and Timberwood Parkway should be designed with grade-separated crossings of Route 29, without ramps, to connect with the road system on the western side of Route 29 and accommodate east-west vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle movements with the appropriate facilities. 8. Provide a grade-separated crossing without ramps at Airport Road to accommodate east-west vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle movements with the appropriate facilities. 9. Based on development patterns east of Route 29, provide grade separated bicycle/pedestrian overpasses/underpasses to accommodate east-west movement. 10. East-west connecting roads should be curb/gutter design with sidewalks/bike lanes and the design should be "Avenue/Residential Boulevard" or "Main Street~ design. 11. in the long term, consider establishing an east-west connection from Route 29 to Earlysville Road (Route 743) as recommended in the Charlottesville Area Transportation Study (CATS) by extending Hollymead Drive to Earlysville Road. This road location and design should be coordinated with the relocation of Dickerson Road (Route 606). 12. Intermediate accesses, without crossovers, to Route 29 should be provided on the east side between Ashwood Boulevard and Timberwood Boulevard and west side between Hollymead Drive and Timberwood Boulevard, except one mid-point access between Hollymead Drive and Timberwood Drive may utilize a new cross-over on Route 29 if. warranted by traffic studies and conditions. Given the current road infrastructure in the vicinity of the Tow~ Center, such a crossover is an important element of the Town Center and is a critical ingredient for a Boulevard/Main Street entrance into the development from Route 29. Once the ultimate transportation network for the Town Center and surrounding environs is in place the continuing need for such a crossover may be reconsidered. 13. 14. Stop the northern end of the eastem parallel road at Hollymead Drive and access undeveloped land north of Hollymead directly from Route 29, without a crossover. This will avoid significant impact to existing homes in Hollymead. Proffit Road (Route 649) should be constructed with a UNeighborhood Street" design from Worth Crossing to Lanford Hills Drive, including sidewalks and bike lanes. The section from Route 29 to Worth Crossing should be designed in a manner necessary to accommodate transition to the ultimate improvements to Route 29 and Airport Road. A major upgrade of Proffit Road east of Lanford Hills to Route 20 is not recommended; however, minimal spot safety improvements may be appropriate in certain locations. The Master Plan does not address road improvements outside of the Town Center area other than the proposal for an at. grade crossover at the intermediate access recommended in #12, above.

Thank you, Bruce ---Original Message--B From: Bruce Appleyard Sent: Monday, October 08, 2001 1:48 PM To: David Bowerman (E-mail); Sally Thomas; Charlotte Humphds; Undsay Dorrier; Chades Martin; Walter Perkins Cc: Wayne Cilimberg; David Benish; Bob Tucker Subject: Hoilymead Town Center CPA Dear Members of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, We are writing to you regarding to the Post Office Land Trust (Hollymead Town Center) Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA 98-03) that is scheduled to go before you for public hearing and possible approval on October 10, 2001. SELC strongly supports the concept of a Hotlymead town-center and its purpose of creating a vibrant, mixed use, pedestrian-friendly environment that is appropriately scaled, easily accessible and thoughtfully designed. We also support the DISC model, which spells out this vision in greater detail. One of the major benefits of such a development concept is that, if done properly, it can minimize the amount of automobile traffic generated by being accessible via multiple transportation alternatives (walking, transit, biking, etc.), or by a single auto trip instead of several. Therefore, the development of a true "town center", consistent with the DISC Neighborhood Model, could effectively lower the need for the construction of new roads or widening of existing ones in this area of the 29 corridor. However, wa are very concerned that the Comprehensive Plan Amendment before you will lead to a development paffem that is inconsistent with DISC, and will further contribute to the serious sprawl and traffic problems in the County. We therefore urge you to reject or modify some of the changes recommended by the developers. The report accompanying this CPA, "Conceptual Master Plan & Design Guidelines for Hollymead Town Center" is a deceptive document - it relies on many DISC-like images and language, but rather than laying the foundation for a town center, it is opening the door for the development of a big-box regional center, which will further clog Route 29 North with trafrm and accelerate the need for more highways and highway lanes in this cdfical area of the County. As'you are aware, in light of this Comprehensive Plan Amendment and VDOT's proposal for widening Route 29 and building parallel access roads, we hired Walter Kulash, a nationally recognized transportation engineer, and his firm of Glatting Jackson to review these transportation and land use proposals. Mr. Kulash's report outlines how modestly scaled DiSC-like land use policies, coupled with the creation of a network of locally serving streets, could effectively reduce the need for the widening of 29 and the construction of new major roads in this area. Creating a true town center requires a comprehensive and disciplined approach to development. Unfortunately, the comprehensive plan amendment before you effectively undermines the ability to create a true town center. Furthermore, with the County now poised to employ the DISC master planning process, it does not make sense to move ahead with this amendment when a much more comprehensive effort to guide the development of this area can take place in a fairly short pedod of time. In order to create a true Town Center that will achieve this objective of minimizing congestion on Route 29, we would like to make the following recommendations: First, reinstate the 65,000 square foot cap on each individual use and refocus the intent of development into one that serves the needs of the Hoflymead and Forest Lakes community and not the entire region. Removing the 65,000 square foot cap on each individual use and specifically allowing for big-box retail in this area, as the developers have proposed, makes this a regional center, not a town center, and is almost certain to eliminate any chance of creating a human-scaled community at this location. Furthermore, such uses will generate tremendous amounts of traffic, which will likely require the construction of major roads in the area. Second, we recommend that you require all buildings to maintain a minimum FAR of .5 and reinstate the average FAR target of .75. Lowering the average FAR to .5 and not having a minimum FAR for each building will allow development to be sprawiad out, counter to the spirit and stated intent of DISC Neighborhood Model. The big-box, regional service component of this CPA actually presents an FAR of around .2-.3, and will be virtually no different from any other big-box development along the 29 corridor in terms of the land it will consume and the auto traffic it will generate. Third, we recommend that you reject the proposed extra access point and crossover between Hollymead Ddve and 'l'imbenvood Drive. Adding an at-grade access point will only further congest 29 with traffic and accelerate the need to widen it and possibly to construct other major new roads in the area. If the intent is to develop a true town center, then a single automobile access point on 29 should be enough, If you decide you must provide this access point, we recommend that at the very least you not allow it to cross over to the northbound lanes. By making it a right-turn-in/right-turn-out driveway you will minimize its congestive effects on Route 29, We continue to recommend, however, that muitimodal overpasses or underpasses be constructed to properly connect this 'q'own Center" to Hollymead and Forest. Lakes communities while, at the same time, avoiding clogging Route 29 with unnecessary traffic. Fourth, we recommend that there be a maximum block length of 500 feet. The proposed road network will not effectively accommodate pedestrian trips because many of the blocks are too long to be waikable. In some cases they are more than 1,000 feet! This radically undermines the intent of DISC and all it does to create walkabie communities. Maintaining the target block length of 200-300 feet and specifying a maximum block iength of 500 feet will allow enough flexibility to deal with the terrain of the site while, at the same time, supporting the creation of a waikable street network. Furthermore, it should be recognized that most of the land that makes up this proposed "Town Center" is currently zoned Rural Areas, the lowest category of development intensity allowed by the County's Zoning Ordinance. in the future, in order for the public, county staff, and the Board to be fully informed about the degree of change in development pattems that a particular CPA can allow, we recommend that ali Comprehensive Plan Amendments include a map indicating the current zoning of the site. In conclusion, we respectfully ask that you delay the approval of this CPA until you have employed the DISC Master Planning process for this growth area. By doing so, you will more likely create a true town center that will effectively serve the needs of the communities of the Hollymead growth area, and minimize the generation of unnecessary automobile traffic. If you decide to address this proposal before the DISC master planning process can be employed for the Hotlymead Growth Area, we strongly urge you to incorporate ali of our recommendations outlined above into the CPA. In doing so, you will have laid the groundwork for the creation of a valuable and accessible tow~ center that strengthens the integrity of our growth areas, minimizes the traffic on mute 29 and thereby lowers the need to build new majors or road lanes in this area of the county. We appreciate your consideration of these comments. Please contact us if you would like to discuss any of the points we have raised.
