To be paid after staff review for Dublic notice:
Most applications for a Special Use Permit require at least one public hearing by the Planning Commission and one public
hearing by the Board of Supervisors. Virginia State Code requires that notice for public hearings be made by publishing
a legal advertisement in the newspaper and by mailing letters to adjacent property owners. Therefore, at least two fees
for public notice are required before a Special Use Permit may be heard by the Board of Supervisors. Applications
reviewed by the Board of Zoning Appeals, however, only require one public hearing and therefore require just one fee for
public notice.
The total fee for public notice will be provided to the applicant after the final cost is determined and must be paid before
the application is heard by a public body. Staff estimates the total cost of legal advertisement and adjacent owner
notification to be between $400 and $450 per hearing. This estimate reflects the average cost of public notice fees for
Special Use Permit applications, but the cost of certain applications may be hitcher.
➢ Preparing and mailing or delivering up to fifty (50) notices

SP 2016 -
WOOLEN MILLS— Residential Use in C-1 District
PROJECT PROPOSAL
This application is submitted in conjunction with the pending ZMA application no. 2016-16 for a mixed-
use redevelopment of the old Woolen Mills property. As described in that application, the proposal
involves a mix of residential, commercial and industrial -type uses permitted in the C-1 district. Applicant
hereby seeks a special use permit to allow for the residential uses as permitted by right in the R-15
district. Per the ZMA application and the Comprehensive Plan, residential use will constitute no more
than 55% of the total built square footage and leased outdoor area of the Property. Currently proposed
are 94 residential units on the Property.
CONSISTENCY WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
In 2015, the Board of Supervisors approved an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan as a precursor to
this rezoning application. The same proposal was presented to the Board at that time and was very well
received. Attached hereto as Exhibit D is the result of that Comprehensive Plan amendment which
specifically provides for Office/R&D/Flex/Light Industrial use on the Property. If further specifically
provides that "Residential use of a portion of the historic former mill buildings as part of a mixed-use
development may be appropriate if the buildings are removed from the floodplain and provided that at
least 45% of the total built square footage and leased outdoor area of the mill property is used non -
residentially in employment -generating and commercial uses." Applicant has been working diligently
since that Comprehensive Plan amendment was adopted to have the floodplain revised by FEMA to
allow for such residential development which is necessary to the feasibility of this mixed-use project,
and now that such floodplain amendment is expected in the short term, has filed this rezoning
application to keep the Project moving forward.
It is a stated objective within the Comprehensive Plan to "Pursue additional protection measures and
incentives to preserve Albemarle's historic and archaeological resources in order to foster pride in the
County and maintain the County's character." This proposed amendment will do that by providing the
flexibility necessary to preserve and reuse the existing historic buildings, while opening up the Property
to be more welcoming to the community as a whole. The Woolen Mills story is one that should not be
lost, and should not only be known to the community, but should be a source of pride. Sadly, many
County residents have not seen this beautiful Property because there is nothing drawing them there.
Connecting the Rivanna Trails through this Property and having some mixed uses there that provide
work, home and entertainment possibilities will help to preserve this piece of history. As the
Comprehensive Plan states, "choices about growth and change should include the preservation of
historic buildings and structures. Adaptive reuse may be a practical approach to preserving these
important historic resources."
Needless to say, with the Comprehensive Plan having been amended to specifically allow for this
Project, including the residential use proposed hereby, the proposed project and this request are very
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
IMPACTS ON PUBLIC FACILITIES & PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE
The Project will be served by public roads, water and sewer. The main entrance to the Project will be
from Broadway St., which is presently capable of handling the traffic needs of this Project. The traffic
study prepared in connection with this project concluded that "[t]he traffic associated with the Woolen
Mills project will have a minimal impact on the surrounding transportation network. The ... analyses
indicate that the Woolen Mills site traffic can be accommodated with no improvements to the study
area intersections."
IMPACTS ON ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURES
This Project will have no adverse impacts on environmental features. On the contrary, the Project will
facilitate improved and adapted use of green spaces, create more green spaces accessible to the public
and preserve the historic beauty of the area through the renovation and preservation of the existing mill
buildings. New walking trails will welcome the public to view a beautiful part of the County that may
otherwise be lost to history.
