Can you confirm if this and any other business signs have been added to VDOT's list, so we can be aware of whether or not they qualify for an extended temporary sign?

As I discussed with Mandy on Friday, we have received confirmation from LANE /Corman JV that they will be able to avoid several additional signs and light poles that were previously marked to be removed as a result of utility work for the US29 /Rio Road GSI. Our Right of Way attorney has been communicating this information to the appropriate property owners. The following fixtures can remain per LANE /Corman JV: • D -915 (Fashion Square Mall light), D -701 (Fashion Square Mall sign) and D -900 (light for fashion square mall sign) located at the Fashion Square mall entrance across from Brown's Body Shop & Virginia National Bank • D -901 & D -902 (Wells Fargo Light poles) just south of Rio Road Shops • D -905 and D -914 (Light Poles) at the old Pioneer bank property — northwest quadrant of the US29 /Rio Road intersection • D -706 — Titlemax /Gamestop sign at the southwest quadrant of the US29 /Rio Road intersection This list does not include additional signs and light poles that were deemed by Centurylink to be out of their work area and can remain in place along the West Rio Road segment for the Bristles and Photoworks properties (D -708, D -910, D- 911 and D -709). If you have any questions on any of this, please let me know. Thank you. Hal Jones Please note - I have recently relocated to a project office. My best contact number is my cell phone number below.

(Parcel 020), Rio Road Sho [I am Jim Bowling's legal assistant. He has dictated the matter set out below and asked me to send it to you.] Dear Mandy: To follow up on our telephone conversation on Wednesday, I am representing VDOT in Route 29 Design Solutions eminent domain matters. I have sent notice letters to property owners identified above who have signs within the utility right of way that have been acquired by VDOT through the certificate filing method of condemnation. These signs are in the acquired right of way and must be removed by the landowner beginning in June and July, 2015 when construction is scheduled to begin. I have sent sign removal notice letters concerning the above referenced parcels to the following individuals: 1. Property of Mimosa, LLC (Parcel 006) Deadline to remove: June 1, 2015 Joshua E. Baker, Esq. Waldo and Lile, PC 301 West Free Mason Street Norfolk, Virginia 23510 2. LPCMT2007 -C3 Seminole Trail, LLC (Parcel 008), Deadline to remove sign June 1, 2015 Matthew M. Dudley, Esq. Wilcox and Savage, PC 440 Monticello Ave, Suite 2200 Norfolk, Virginia 23510 3. Montigue Family Partnership, LP (Parcel 019) Deadline July 17, 2015 Karen E. Winer ATTN: Mall Management Office �2s� ✓ ^ I 1600 E. Rio Road Charlottesville, Virginia 22902 4. Wells Fargo Bank, NA (Parcel 020) ` Deadline to remove sign: July 17, 2015 {,« S v r R.

Taylor, 455 Second Street, SE Fifth Floor Charlottesville, Virginia 22902 1 have informed these individuals that if they desire to remove the currently existing sign on the property, they must do so by the deadline date indicated above. After that date, VDOT contractors relocating the utilities will remove and dispose of the sign. If the landowner desires to remove the sign, this removal must be done at the landowners' cost. I have also informed the landowners' representatives that regarding the future location of the permanent sign there may be restrictions on placing the sign back in the existing easement acquisition area due to future access and maintenance concerns by either VDOT or the utilities involved. Any permanent sign location in the utility acquisition area will be contingent upon final utility location and permission granted by the utility owner. VDOT's design builders is in the process of finalizing plans, which we should have in a week or two. Finally, I have told landowners that they can contact Dave Covington, the regional VDOT manager of this project, to directly discuss these issues, and he will coordinate meeting with the client or representative to discuss the issue. Mr. Covington's email address is dave .covington @vdot.virginia.gov. I have also informed the landowner that the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors is taking steps to lessen the impact of VDOTs project on their property by adopting a new zoning text amendment, set on the Board's agenda for May 6, 2015. This zoning text amendment is designed to making thing easier for Route 29 Design Solutions affected landowners, including waiver of certain otherwise required formalities concerning the County's Architecture Review Board. I have informed the landowners that the contact person for the County is Amelia McCulley, the County Zoning Administrator, and her email is amuccullev @albemarle.org. That was the best information I had available prior to talking to you. The reason for this email is to alert you that landowners may be contacting your office to seek your help. Please feel free to contact Mr. Covington to coordinate efforts to satisfactorily achieve sign removal. If I can be of help, please let me know. Will you forward me the name and email address of the person in your office who will be responsible for making the decisions concerning temporary and permanent sign locations. I will forward this information on to the affected landowners. � & ,;vk -> In addition to the above described parcels, VDOT is currently handli in -house two additional parcels/ice nced above: parcel 031, owned by Geoffrey D. Kilmer and Denise B. Kil er; and parcel 030, owned by Rio 0 sociates, Inc. Because these matters being handled internally, I do not have the contact information forthese two landowners; however, the deadline for the Kilmers to remove their sign is June 19, 2015 and the deadline for Rio Office Associates, Inc. to remove its sign is also June 19, 2015.
