Re: ZMA201500009 Shadwell Estates
Dear Mr. Miller:
In reviewing our records concerning the above referenced application, it has been at least 30 days since
we have had any communication from you regarding this project. To assure that your application is
proceeding to public hearing in accordance with state and local codes, the County asks that you:
• Request withdrawal of your application for the above referenced project OR
• Request deferral of the application to a specific Planning Commission date to be determined in
accordance with the Planning Commission's published schedule, and as mutually agreed to by
the applicant and County, OR
• Request indefinite deferral and state your justification for requesting the deferral.
If we do not receive any written correspondence concerning the above referenced project within 30
days of the date of this letter, we will consider the project voluntarily withdrawn
If you request deferral of the application to a specific Planning Commission date and we do not receive
any written correspondence concerning the above referenced project by 60 days before that specific
date, we will schedule this project for a public hearing with the Planning Commission on that specific
date with a recommendation based on the information in our file for this project as of the date of this
letter.
If you request an indefinite deferral, Section 33.4.r.(2) of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance states:
An application shall be deemed to have been voluntarily withdrawn if the applicant requested that
further processing or formal action on the application be indefinitely deferred and the commission or
the board of supervisors is not requested by the applicant to take action on the application within
one(1) year after the date the deferral was requested. Upon written request received by the director
of planning before the one (1) year period expires, the director may grant one extension of the
deferral period for a period determined to be reasonable, taking into consideration the size or nature
of the proposed use, the complexity of the review, and the laws in effect at the time the request for
extension is made. Upon written request received by the clerk of the board of supervisors before the
extension of the deferral period granted by the director expires, the board of supervisors may grant
one additional extension of the deferral period determined to be reasonable, taking into
consideration the size or nature of the proposed use, the complexity of the review, and the laws in
effect at the time the request for extension is made. The timely receipt by the clerk of the extension
request shall toll the expiration of the extended deferral period until the board acts on the request.
If no action is taken by the Planning Commission on the above referenced project within 12 months
from the date of your request for indefinite deferral, the project will be deemed withdrawn unless you
request with justification and are granted an extension of the deferral period by the Director of
Planning.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
