Home My WebLink AboutZMA201300003 Review Comments Zoning Map Amendment 2013-09-26 Claudette Grant From: Claudette Grant • Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2013 3:26 PM To: 'Mike Carmagnola' Subject: RE: ZMA 20130003 - 1306 Crozet Ave Hi Mike, As previously discussed, please find the following recommended proffer language for proffer 3, which provides affordable housing language that was requested during the Planning Commission public hearing. This proffer language has been reviewed by the County Attorney's office, Housing Director, Zoning, and myself. I am now remembering that we also suggested the following revisions per the staff report for the other proffers. Per the staff report and Planning Commission public hearing, the proffers described below should be the proffers that are signed. We need the signed proffers by Monday, September 30, 2013 to meet the legal ad requirements. 1. Development and use shall be in general accord with the Plan titled"Sheet 2 of 2" prepared by Roudabush, Gale & Associates,Inc. dated February 1, 2013, and revised July 12, 2013 (hereafter the "Plan"), as determined by the Director of Planning and the Zoning Administrator. To be in general accord with the Plan,the development and use shall reflect the following major elements in the approximate location, number and extent as shown on the Plan: a. The Property shall not be divided into more than three (3) lots, including the Residue Lot 1 shown on the Plan. b. Existing sidewalk immediately adjacent to the proposed driveways for lots 2 & 3 will be maintained. If the sidewalk mentioned above is damaged during installation of said driveways then it will be repaired so as to provide safe and convenient access as determined by the Zoning Administrator. Minor modifications to the Plan which do not conflict with the elements above may be made to ensure compliance with the Zoning Ordinance. ggai Gri Lo d- dam. —2. Prior to approval by the County of the f}z<t final subdivision plat or site plan for the Property, the Owner shall convert one of the two rental dwelling units on the Plan shown as #1302 and#1304 on Residue Lot 1, from a dwelling unit to an accessory structure,to the satisfaction of the Zoning Administrator. 3. The Owner shall provide one affordable dwelling unit within the project by maintaining the dwelling unit shown on the Plan as#1302 or#1304 that is not decommissioned as provided in Proffer 2 as a dwelling unit that provides complete, independent living facilities for one (1) or more persons and includes permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking and sanitation.

Greg Kamptner Deputy County Attorney County of Albemarle gkamptner @albemarle.org Claudette Grant From: Francis MacCall Sent: Monday, August 05, 2013 11:59 AM To: Claudette Grant Subject: RE: 1306 Crozet Avenue Below is the language Greg is referring to. I don't think it has been officially adopted but it is very close to being so. "Development and use shall be in general accord with the conceptual plan titled "XX" prepared by YY dated ZZ (hereafter"Conceptual Plan"), as determined by the Director of Planning and the Zoning Administrator. To be in general accord with the Conceptual Plan, the development and use shall reflect the following major elements in the approximate location, number and extent as shown on the Conceptual Plan:" Here are my revisions using the language above and addressing Greg's comments: 1. Development and use shall be in general accord with the Plan titled "Sheet 2 of 2" prepared by Roudabush, Gale &Associates, Inc. dated February 1,2013, and revised July 12, 2013 (hereafter the "Plan"), as determined by the Director of Planning and the Zoning Administrator. To be in general accord with the Plan,the development and use shall reflect the following major elements in the approximate location, number and extent as shown on the Plan: a. The Property shall not be divided into more than three (3) lots, including the Residue Lot 1 shown on the Plan. b. No Change (I think that it should be referenced as one of the major elements. The proposed development would affect the pedestrian access along the existing sidewalk on St George Ave and we want that access maintained in a safe and convenient manner. I think attaching that to the zoning is the more appropriate way to go.) c. Remove (I agree with Greg) 2. Prior to approval by the County of the first final subdivision plat or site plan for the Property,the Owner shall convert one of the two rental dwelling units on the Plan shown as#1302 and #1304 on Residue Lot 1, from a dwelling unit to an accessory structure,to the satisfaction of the Zoning Administrator. 3. After looking at what Greg is saying I would agree with him and think Proffer#3 would not be needed. In number 2, I have chosen to go with convert because we currently have an affidavit that uses that language for when someone wants to remove or convert an existing dwelling unit and the density does not work for a second dwelling(in this case it would not work for a 3rd dwelling on the Residue Lot 1) Francis From: Claudette Grant Sent: Friday, August 02, 2013 10:01 AM To: Francis MacCall Subject: FW: 1306 Crozet Avenue Francis, See below, the e-mail from Greg that we talked about yesterday. Thank you From: Greg Kamptner Sent: Monday, July 29, 2013 11:04 AM 1 *Noe 4140 To: Claudette Grant Subject: RE: 1306 Crozet Avenue General: Confirm 14-digit tax map and parcel numbers. 1. Use the standard language used for special use permit conditions. Check with Amelia because we are currently working on revising this"general accord" condition for special use permits and I provided comments to Amelia earlier today on that standard condition. (My comment to the similar proffer for the Fifth Street Commercial ZMA could be dealt with in a different way). I'm not sure why what the applicant is proposing needs to use this particular condition.Why not just address 1(a) by stating as Proffer 1: "The Property shall not be divided into more than three (3) lots, including the Residue Lot shown on Sheet 2 of 2 . . ." What's now in 1(b)would be subject to a maintenance agreement anyway,wouldn't it?What's now in 1(c)appears to be unnecessary,given Proffers 2 and 3. 2. Revise this proffer to state: "Prior to approval by the County of the first final subdivision plat or site plan for the Property,the Owner shall render or decommission . . ." Ask Zoning what the correct term for converting a building into something other than a dwelling unit—converting may be the term. Shouldn't the structure ID'd as #1302 be the one that is converted into something other than a dwelling unit, since it is in the setbacks? 3. Given proffer 2, I'm not sure why this proffer is needed. 4. Have impacts from the increased authorized density been identified and addressed (granted, it's a one dwelling unit increase)?

In addition, the letter mentions that the driveways would be located adjacent and very close to each other. While private entrances are exempt from Access Management Regulations, it is good practice to locate them as far as practically possible from each other. The exact locations can be determined during the building permit process. If you need additional information concerning this request,please feel free to contact me.

The assumption is that the existing entrance onto Crozet Avenue will continue to be used for the residue(Lot 1). Please advise if this is inaccurate. If you have any questions,please contact me.
