Transfer of $161,735 for the Comprehensive Services Act. The CSA Committee of the Commission on Children and Families (CCF) has requested supplemental funding for the CSA Programs for FY 1999. The total supplement request is $1,733,949, of which 45% ($780,277) is local match.

DAY 'CI-IARL~.t .~._ VA COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AGENDA TITLE: Boys and Girls Club Funding Request SUBJECT/PROPOSAL/REQUEST: Request for $7,000 from the Boys and Girls Club AGENDA DATE: April 14, 1999 ACTION: CONS,ENT AGENDA: ACTION: X ITEM NUMBER: INFORMATION: INFORMATION: ATTACHMENTS: yes / STAFF CO.TACT S : A* J Messrs. Tucker, White REVIEWED BY:/(::~P i BACKGROUND: On February '22nd, the School Board approved a $6,999.99 donation to the Boys and Girls Club for their Computers-4-Kids program to be paid from their reserve fund. However, subsequent to this decision, it was determined that the School Board by state code is not allowed to make contributions to outside agencies and therefore, a letter was sent to the Chairman of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors requesting approval of the same funding request. The letter from Mr. Dave Hilyard, Executive Director of the Boys and Girls Club is attached. Also attached for your information is a summary from the School Board agenda describing the program and the request. DISCUSSION: The Boys and Girls Club is a community agency that receives funding from the City of Charlottesville and the United Way, as well as federal funds and community contributions. They also collect $!2 per year from each club member, which numbered 241 unduplicated youth in FY98. Their total FY99 budget is $217,049. The Computers-4-Kids program requested $6,999.99 to fund a part-time program manager and to purchase peripheral equipment to distribute to the kids. Through a survey, they have determined that 12! county and t22 city students do not have a home computer. To date, they have placed 58 computers in the homes of these students. RECOMMENDATION: Since the School Board has already approved funding this program from their reserve fund, staff recommends that the Board approve a one-time grant to the Boys and Girls Club for $7,000. Funding for the program will come from the School Board's FY98 budget by reducing the 4th quarter general fund transfer by $7,000. if the Board chooses to fund this program, it is recommended that any future funding requests be submitted directly to the Board of Supervisors through the regular budget and program evaluation process. 99.069 Enclosure 1 Computers-4-Kids The Following are Founders of Computers-4-Kids: Meredith Richards, Charlottesville City Councilor Irvin E.

Petition: Request for special use permit to allow sheep farming with retail sales in accordance with Section 10.2.2.31 of the Zoning Ordinance which allows for Home Occupation, Class B. The property, described as Tax map 63, Parcel 4lA, contains 4.766 acres, and is located on Hammocks 'Gap Road (Rt. 612) approximately 0.9 miles from the intersection with Stony Point Road (Rt. 20) in the Rivanna Magisterial District. The property is zoned PA, Rural Areas. The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Rural Area. (See tax map - Attachment B). Character of the Area: Route 612 is a gravel road which serves several large farms and scattered residences on the west side of the Southwest Mountains. The character of the area is rural and scenic. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff has reviewed this request for compliance with Section 31.2.4.1 (Special Use Permits) and 5.2 (Supplementary Regulations for Home Occupations) of the Zoning Ordinance and recommends approval with conditions, and approval of a waiver of the Supplementary Regulations to allow retail sales of equipment and accessories used to make the hand-crafted items. Planning and Zoning History_: This property has been enrolled in the Eastham AgriculturaUForestal District since 1993. The Agricultutural/Forestal Districts Advisory Committee reviewed this proposal for compatibility with the purpose and intent of the District on March 15, 1999. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Rural Area. The site is located within the Southwest Mountain National Register Rural Historic District, but is not a contributing property. STAFF COMMENT: Staff has addressed each provision of Section 31.2.4.1 of the Zoning Ordinance pertaining to approval of special use permits: 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 of Supervisors that such use will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, Staff opinion is that the proposed home occupation use will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property. The proposed use will take place in a building which is visually compatible with the rural setting. The traffic to the site will not increase significantly except possibly during the three weekend open house events. that the character of the district will not be changed thereby, The applicant's proposal will not change the character of the district. Hammocks Gap Road is rural and scenic in Character. Along its entire length, properties on one or both sides of the road are enrolled in an Agricultural/Forestal District. The proposed use supports an appropriate rural activity, sheep farming, which contibutes to the character of the area. and that such use will be in harmony with the purpose and intent of this ordinance, Staff has reviewed the purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance, relation to the environment, and relation to Comprehensive Plan as stated in Sections 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6, and has found this application to be in harmony with these sections. Specifically, this request facilitates preservation of agricultural and forestal lands and activities. with the hses permitted by right in the district, This property and the adjacent properties are zoned RA, Rural Areas. Staff opinion is that the proposed use is in harmony with the uses permitted by right in the district. with additional regulations provided in Section 5.0 of this ordinance, Section 5.2 addresses home occupations. Staff has addressed each pertinent provision: Home occupation Class B requires approval of the zoning administrator, including: (1)Virginia Department of Transportation approval of entrance facilities and (2) determination that the existing parking is adequate. Virginia Department of Transportation comments of March 9, 1999 and January 14, 1999 are attached. (See VDoT letters - Attachment C) The entrance needs to be widened to allow two cars to meet and pass in the entrance. Twelve parking spaces are required, including two spaces for the single family dwelling. They are existing on site. The total floor area of the occupation shall not exceed 1,500 square feet. The studio space is 1,200 square feet. There shall be no visible evidence of the conduct of such home occupation other than one sign. Accessory stuctures shall be similar in facade to a single-family dwelling, private garage, shed, barn or other structure normally expected in a rural or residential area and shall be specifically compatible in design and scale with other development in the area in which located. The accessory structure shall meet setback and yard regulations for main structures. The existing structure is a renovated shed which is visually compatible with the rural setting. It is located over 100 feet from all property lines. There shall be no sales on the premises, other than items hand 'crafted on the premises, in connection with such home occupation. The applicant is requesting a waiver of this regulation, to allow retail sales of equipment and accessories which are used to make the items hand crafted on the premises. Staff opinion is that the type of items to be sold are consistent with the agricultural and hand-crafted items. The proposed sales will generate only limited sporatic additional traffic. Sales will be made by appointment, or to students enrolled in classes. No traffic shall be generated by such home occupation in greater volumes than would normally be expected in a residential neighborhood. Parking generated by the conduct of such home occupation shall be off-street. A ~.pical residence generates 70 vehicle trips per week (10 per day). The classes will generate a maximum of twenty additional trips per week (10 cars X two trips), which is reasonable. The open houses will generate from 10-20 trips per hour on three weekends per year. Staff opinion is that this amount is reasonable, if the special events are limited to three per year. All home occupations shall comply with performance standards in Section 4.14. Performance standards include noise, vibration, air pollution, water pollution, radioactivity and electrical interference. No activity is proposed which would violate this section. and with the public health, safety and general welfare. The Virginia Department of Transportation in its letter dated January 14, 1999 notes the sight distance concern at the intersection of Stony Point Road (Route 20) and Hammocks Gap Road (Route 612). They state that the proposal Mil probably not create significant numbers, but will add to the non-tolerable concerns of Route 612. As stated above, the proposed classes will add 20 additional trips per week, and the open houses will add 10-20 trips per hour on three weekends per year. This could be interpreted as adding unnecessary traffic to an existing non-tolerable road and to an intersection which lacks sight distance. Staff opinion is that the additional use is not excessive compared to a typical residential use. In an addendum dated March 9, 1999, they state that the existing driveway should be widened to commercial standard, or at a minimum to allow two cars to pass in the entrance. There are no other health, safety or welfare concerns. AGRICULTURAL/FORESTAL DISTRICTS ADVISORY COMMITTEE: The Committee at its meeting on March 15, 1999 unanimously recommended that the proposed use is consistent with the agricultural/forestal district, and that the Special Use Permit be accepted as proposed by staff.

The wool fiber provided by sheep raised here on the farm is used. These finished items will be offered for sale at the studio, through the mail, in hand-craft galleries and trade shows. In addition to several small crafts shows in Virginia, I attend major craft shows in North Carolina, Maryland, New York, Michigan and Ohio. Additionally, the equipment and accessories that are used to make these items will also offered for sale. This is to be a sole proprietorship with no employees. The studio space is 1200 sq. feet in a renovated shed that is separate from residence on ground level. At some point in the future, it is proposed to connect the studio and residence by a pergola-type breezeway. There is a storage area of 240 sq. feet that is accessible by pull-down stairs. There is no designated gallery or showroom space. Proposed operating hours will be Tuesday through Saturday between 10 and 5 by appointment only. It is proposed to have an Open House no more than 3 times a year. It is requested that classes in spinning and weaving be offered at various times throughout the year with limited enrollment. It is requested that school children be allowed to tour the farm and studio on occasion for educational purposes. Our founding forefathers, George Washington, James Madison and James Monroe, raised sheep for the necessity of clothing and meat to provide food. It is mv wish to do my small part in continuing the heritage left to us by these fine gentlemen. I am just a small part of spinners and weavers across this nation trying to carry on the legacy of a dying art form. If you ever have the chance to try on a hand-woven garment, you will see the significance in the craftsmanship as compared to a machine-made garment.

Property owners contacted are: Dr. Peter Lobo, Mr. Bart Shaw-Kennedy, Mr.' William Gentry and Mr. drchibaM Craig. Additionally, 1 have contacted the remaining neighbors on State Route 612 (Hammocks Gap Road) and have received only favorable feedback. How will the proposed special use affect the character of the district surrounding the property? It will be in harmony with the rural character of the district by staying agricultural and rural in appearance and intent. There will be no noise pollution, no affect on any waterways or supplies, and no additional traffic other than accepted normal usage. How is the use in harmony with the purpose of intent of the Zoning Ordinance? The use is in harmony by preserving the rural and agricultural integrity of the area. There will be limited service delivery. Appearance of studio is compatible with residence. Landscaping will be provided to match the natural landscape of the farm and residence. Adequate graveled parking is provided as shown on attached plat and there is adequate visibility from State Route 612 through driveway to residence and studio. How is the use in harmony with the uses permitted by right in the district? The use is in harmony and an extens ion of sheep farming "by right" in that it provides a complete picture of the dynamics of sheep farming, processing the fiber through to completed product in a "hands on" manner. What additional regulations provided in Section 5.0 of the Zoning Ordinance apply to this use? Mainly, that the purpose, appearance and intent remain rural and agricultural as stated in Section 5. 2. How will this use promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community? This use meets the intent of the agricultural activity and doesn't create any conflicts. It is a very small endeavor and has no large impact on the community and will contribute to the economic growth of the county. ATTACHMENT A rod found in fln¢l T. M. 63-39 Archibald Betty R.

There is one concern that needs to be addressed and that is the large trucks/tractors that are parked parallel to the curb. This parking in effect blocks proper sight distance requirements. We could place "No Parking" signs, however this then infringes on those- motorists who could park an automobile without any problem. We may be able to address this with a special sign, but it becomes a matter of enforcement. Our question is, 'Does the County have in place an ordinance that restricts trucks from parallel parking in thais type of neighborhood'~ SP-98-71 Stony Mountain Fibersr Route 612 Route 612 is listed as a non-tolerable road. The gravel surface varies from 12-14 feeu in width and a 1992 traffic count shows 187 vehicles daily. The intersection of Route 20/610/612 is not an optimum intersection for sight distance and has been recommended for inclusion into our Primary Six-Year Plan and au this time has not been included. The proposal of use probably will not create significant numbers, however will add to the non-tolerable concerns of this road, as addressed above.

Echols, AICP Senior Planner EKE/jcf Cc: Ella Carey Amelia McCulley Jack Kelsey STAFF PERSON: PLANNING COMMISSION: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: ELAINE K. ECHOLS, AICP MARCH 16, 1999 APRIL 14, 1999 SP 98-73 Good 'Shepherd Episcopal Church Applicant's Proposal: Good Shepherd Episcopal Church is planning an expansion to provide a Rector's study to the rear of the existing church building. The building addition would be a 16 foot by 16 foot addition as shown on Attachment A. No other changes to the site are proposed. The special use permit is required because there is no existing special use permit for the church and the building addition constitutes the expansion of a nonconforming use. The special use permit request is for the existing use and the building addition. No site plan or site plan waiver request is required or is made with this project. The sketch plan, though, indicates the general location of existing and proposed improvements. Petition: The petition is for approval of a special use permit, in accordance with Section 10.2.2.35 of the Zoning Ordinance, to allow a church use in the rural areas. This petition is requested for parcels described as Tax Map 75, Parcels 36, 36A, 36B, and 37. The property is located in the Samuel Miller Magisterial District on Route 29 South, approximately 1.5 miles south of the 1-64 Interchange. (See Attachments B & C.) The property is zoned RA residential zoning district and is recommended as Rural Areas on the Land Use Plan. It is also located in an Entrance Corridor with EC zoning. Character of the Area: The area surrounding the church is hilly and wooded. A residence is adjacent to the cemetery north of the property. Surrounding the property and across Route 29 South there are a few residences and agricultural/wooded open space. RECOMMENDATION: Staff has reviewed the proposal for conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Ordinance and recommends approval of the special use permit with conditions. Planning and Zoning History: The church building was constructed in 1905; however, the use is nonconforming because it has no special use permit. No subdivision or zoning history exists for the properties. Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan shows this area as rural. The property has been surveyed by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources but has not been evaluated for nomination to the state or National Register (Attachment D). The only alteration proposed for this historic resource is the small addition described above. Churches in rural areas are viewed as supportive of the moral fiber of the rural community. Eneineerin~ Analysis: The County's Engineering staffhas reviewed this request for engineering issues related to health, safety, and welfare requirements. No modifications are recommended by Engineering other than a stairway or path from the lower parking lot to the church and restricting the upper parking lot as handicap accessible, should the congregation expand. At present, there are less than 15 persons in attendance on any given Sunday. A set of landscape timber stairs is in place at the rear of the church leading to the rectory. The Engineering Department's recommendation is provided in Attachment E. Zonine Considerations: The tax parcel map indicates that there are four parcels owned by the church and used for religious activity. In actuality, there are only three parcels: the fourth parcel was established by the Real Estate Department for taxing purposes when it was income producing. It is no longer used as rental property and Real Estate will be removing the second number from the maps. For the three parcels, one contains the church and rectory and the other tWo contain portions of the cemetery. The parcels were deeded separately to the church prior to 1956 and there is no survey of record for the cemetery parcels separate from the church parcel. Because there are no current records of interior lot lines, Zoning can't tell if the building addition will cause a side yard setback problem. The church has several options available to it to clarify and, if necessary, rectify the problem. The easiest solution might be to combine the parcels into a single parcel to eliminate the interior lot lines. In any case, the Setback issue will need to be resolved prior to the issuance of a building permit for the expansion. The property also is located in an Entrance Corridor. The addition to the church will extend approximately 16 feet from the rear of the existing building, not exceed the height of the existing building, and use the same materials as the existing addition. The Design Planner has reviewed the request and her comments are provided in Attachment F. The addition will not be visible from the Entrance Corridor and, as a result, there will be no required Architectural Review Board review. STAFF COMMENT: Staffwill 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 of Supervisors that such use will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, There has been ongoing congregational activity at this location for most of this century. The building addition will expand the area of the building by less than 300 square feet. No other changes are proposed and there is not expected to be any effect on adjacent properties. that the character of the district will not be changed thereby, The rural areas district is characterized by open space, agricultural uses and very low density residential uses. The church addition is not expected to change the character of the district. addition will not be visible from the right-of-way. The and that such use will be in harmony with the purpose and intent of this ordinance, The RA zoning district was created to establish a zone that provides for preservation of agricultural and forestal lands and activities; provide for water supply protection; be an area of limited service delivery; and to conserve natural, scenic, and historic resources. The church is viewed as a use supportive of rural Albemarle County residents. with the uses permitted by right in the district, By-right uses in the RA district are single family and duplex housing, agricultural uses, public buildings and uses; veterinary services; tourist lodging; mobile homes; and farm wineries. The proposed use is viewed as being in harmony with these uses. with additional regulations provided in Section 5.0 of this ordinance, There are no additional regulations relating to churches. and with the public health, safety and general welfare. The public health, safety, and general welfare of the community is protected through the special use permit process.which assures that uses approved by special use permit are appropriate in the location requested. The Engineering staff has not identified any needed modifications for public health, safety, and the general welfare. They have suggested that a stairway or other type of walkway be provided to ease pedestrian access from the lower parking area to the church entrance if the congregation grows and more use of the lower parking area is required. It is not viewed as necessary at present because the congregational activity is so low. SUMMARY: Staff has identified the following factors which are favorable to this request: The Land Use Plan suggests that churches are supportive to the rural areas in the County. No detrimental impact is anticipated as a result of this building addition. The church has been at this location for almost 100 years and has been surveyed as a historic resource in the County. No negative impact is expected to this historic resource. Expansions of church facilities often ensure a continuing presence of a congregation. 3 Staff has identified no factors which are unfavorable to this request. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends approval of this special use permit with the following conditions: Church development shall be limited to the improvements shown on the sketch plan dated February 6 1999 and incidental improvements such as storage sheds, picnic tables, children's play equipment, and walkways between the buildings and parking areas. Day care use shall be prohibited unless approved through a special use permit amendment. Conformity with setback requirements shall be established prior to issuance of a building permit. A stairway or walkway from the lower parking lot to the church shall be provided when parking needs regularly exceed parking provided by the upper lot.

All previous comments have been addressed. Therefore Albemarle County Engineering recommends approval of the special use permit. As I indicated in a previous correspondence, the site has two separate parking areas. The areas are at different elevations, with the current congregation parking in the upper lot. In the event the congregation increases greatly, Engineering recommends the upper lot be designated for handicapped parking and an acceptable means of access (i.e. stairs with a hand railing) be provide from the lower lot to the church.

Because it appears that the proposed addition will not be visible from the Entrance Corridor (U.S. Route 29), Architectural Review Board review will not be required for this project. The proposed addition is small in comparison to the existing church, it will be placed at the rear of the building, and will be set back from the sides of the existing building. In addition, the overall height of the addition will be less than that of the existing church. These factors, combined with the elevation of the site, should screen the addition from the EC. I would like to point out that the proposed material - concrete block - is not the best choice for an addition to this church. Concrete tinted the sand color of the stone walls would be more compatible. However, due to the lack of visibility of the addition from the Entrance Corridor, I do not recommend any change in materials. I simply suggest that the applicants be aware of the possibility of increasing the compatibility of both the proposed and existing additions as future improvements are considered.

Petition: The University Real Estate Foundation petitions the Board of Supervisors to amend the text of Section 29.0 PLANNED DEVELOPMENT-INDUSTRIAL PARK (PD-IP) of the Zoning Ordinance as follows (Proposed wording underlined): 29.5 ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS In addition to requirements contained herein, the requirements of sections 8.0 and 26.0 shall apply to all PD-~ districts, except as hereinafter express!y provide.O Any requirements.of sections 26.0 and 29.0 shall b.e. subject to modificilt!on, variation' or waiver as provided in.section 8.0: planned development districts, generally, Fo.r such areas as may be located on the perimeter ofa PD-IP district; the commission shall be particularly mindful of the intent to protect the character of adjoining development In addition to materials required by section 8 5.1, a transportation analysis plan shall be submitted with the application for PD-IP district designation. Such plan shall show: projected automobile and truck traffic generation; percent of truck traffic by type; internal and external access point turning movement; general alignments of internal roads; rights-of- way widths and roadway typical sections including base strength designs; proposed improvements to the existing transportation network; percentage estimate of traffic distribution to and from the site on external roads; buss and car pool programs, if any. The phasing of improvements enumerated in this section shall be included on the plan. RECOMMENDATION: Staff opinion is that the currem provisions of the Planned Development- Industrial District do not offer the flexibility to an applicant to pursue nor the discretion to the County to encourage innovative design as called for by section 8.0 which are the general provisions applicable to all planned developments. Other planned development districts offer greater flexibility and discretion. Staff recommends adoption of the applicant's amendment with language as proposed by the applicant. Applicant's Justification: The applicant has stated that: This amendment to the zoning text would permit greater flexibility on the part of the County in review and approval of modification to approved PD-IP's. This amendment would also provide consistency between PD-IP zoning text and other similar language in related sections of the ordinance, i.e.- 20.11.2. STAFF COMMENT: The PD-IP zoning text was developed in the late 1970's and adopted into the prior zoning ordinance. At about the same time, the new draft ordinance was delivered by consultants and staff was immediately directed to rewrite the draft. The PD-[P text was carried over to the new ordinance and remained "unused" until the UREF rezonmg in 1995. Subsequent to approval of the rezoning petition, staff met with the applicant to discuss internal design visions for the park. At that time, it became apparent that discrepancy existed between the PD-IP district and other planned development districts regarding Conunission/Board authority to modify, vary or waive provisions. Other planned development districts contain language much more liberal toward flexible design by providing more discretion to the Commission and Board to allow innovative design which may not be achievable by strict adherence to general or planned development provisions Section 8.1 establishes the general intent of planned development districts and states in part that: Planned development districts are intended to provide for variety and flexibility in design necessary to implement the varied goals and objectives of the county as set fourth in the comprehensive plan. Through a planned development approach, these regulations are intended to accomplish the purposes of zoning and other applicable regulations to the same extent as regulations of conventional districts. To effectuate these statements, Section 8.5.4 provides that the Commission to report its findings to the Board of Supervisors to include: Specific modifications in PD or general regulations as applied to the particular case, based on determination that such modifications are necessary or justified by demonstration that the public purposes of PD or general regulations as applied would be satisfied to at least an equivalent degree by such regulations. The current language of the PD, IP does not offer flexibility to the Commission and Board as outlined in the general intent for planned developments. Language as proposed by the applicant is virtually identical to language applicable to industrial areas within 20.0 Planned Unit Development (PUD). Staff opinion is that this discrepancy is editorial in nature and that provisions of the PD-IP should correspond to the provisions of the more recent PUD district. Staff recommends approval of the applicant's proposed text with language as submitted. 2 STAFF PERSON: PLANNING COMMISSION: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: RON KEELER March 2, 1999 April 14, 1999 ZMA-98-027 UNIVERSITY REAL ESTATE FOUNDATION Applicant's Proposal: This is an amendment to ZMA-95-04 UNIVERSITY REAL ESTATE FOUNDATION which rezoned 525 acres to allow establishment of the North Fork Business Park. UREF proposes a reduction in building setback along internal public roads from fifty (50) feet to ten (10) feet. The reduced setback is requested to accommodate "the desired urban character of the park" (Attachment C). No reduction from established building setbacks around the perimeter of the development is requested. Petition: The University Real Estate Foundation petitions the Board of Supervisors to allow a reduction of building setback from fifty (50) feet to ten (10) feet from internal public road rights- of-way. Property, described as Tax Map 32, Parcels 4B, 6, 6A, 19, and 19C, is located south of the North Fork Rivanna River between Route 29N and Rte. 606 in the Rivanna Magisterial District. This site is recommended for Industrial Service in the Community of Hollymea& Relation to Surrounding Area: Effort was made to integrate the North Fork Park into the context of surrounding commercial, industrial, residential and rural properties. In particular, UREF made several changes in response to residents along Rte. 606 (Attachment D). Access to existing public roads is limited to three locations: U.S. Rte 29 N, Airport Road and Rte. 606 by way of Quail Run Drive. RECOMMENDATION: Staff opinion is that the requested variation is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and does not represent significant concern related to the general health, safety and welfare. Staff would recommend that the Planning Commission as provided by section 8.5.4.d. of the general planned development regulations recommend that the Board vary the Setback requirement from internal public roads to allow building location to be no closer than ten (10) feet from the rights-of way of public roads. Planning and Zoning History: Under ZMA-95-04 approximately 525 acres were rezoned from RA, Rural Areas, PD-IP, Planned Development Industrial Park, and LI, Light Industrial to PD- IP, Planned Development Industrial Park. That request also included the following special use permits: SP~95-40 - Laboratories, medical or pharmaceutical (27.2.2.1; 29.2.2.1); SP-95-41 Supporting commercial uses (27.2.2.14, 29.2.2.1); SP-95-42 - Hotels, motels, inns (29.2.2.2). The proffered zoning Application Plan proposed a maximum gross floor area of 3,000,000 square feet of building area accommodated on 20 sites. These sites, ranging in area from 5.65 acres to 35.19 acres, may be developed with multiple buildings. Sites A, B-l, and B-4 situated along Rte. 606 would be restricted to general office developmem while all other sites would have two to six categories of use available. Numerous written proffers accompanied the rezoning petition (Attachment E). TABLE 1 DEVELOPMENT USE TOTAL FLOOR AREA General Office 2,300,000 square feet (maximum) Support Commercial 110,000 square feet (maximum) ~ Hotel/Conference 190,000 square feet Light Industrial 400,000 square feet TOTAL 3,000,000 square ~feet. TABLE II LAND USE ACREAGE % OF SITE AREA Development Sites 275 acres 52.4% Road right-of-way 33 acres' 6.2% Open Space 217 acres 41.4%2 ~UREF reserves right for 5% of total 3.0 million square feet less area devoted to hotel/motel. 2 Proffer 6.2 provides that open space (other than may be required on development sites) shall not be less than 200 acres. Comprehensive Plan: This site is situated in the Hollymead Community of the Comprehensive Plan. Other comments regarding the Comprehensive Plan in relation to this proposal are included under STAFF COMMENT. STAFF COMMENT: This petition is accompanied by and dependent upon a zoning text amendment (ZTA-98-09) intended to allow greater flexibility in design concepts for the PLANNED DEVELOPMENT- INDUSTRIAL PARK PD-IP zoning district. The analysis provided in this report assumes adoption of ZTA-98-09. Also, staff analysis is intended to reflect only the circumstances of the petition under review and is not intended to reflect nor anticipate any recommendations which may be forthcoming from the ad-hoc Development Incentives Steering Committee (Both the zoning text amendment and this rezoning petition were discussed with DISC at its February 16, 1999 meeting and no objection was raised to either petition). The remainder of this report will discuss setbacks in general, provide a history of setbacks in Albemarle County, relate the request to the current Comprehensive Plan and finally focus on the context of the North Fork Park. Building Setback: Generally: Regarding the zoning police power, setback (including other yard regulations) have been viewed as clearly having bases in such matters as: ---provision of light and air as well as protection against obstruction of light and air; ---provision of adequate fire protection as well as protection against loss of life, health or safety from fire dangers; and ---to provide for adequate flood protection as well as protect against loss of life, health or property from flood dangers. Setbacks may also be argued to protect against overcrowding of land, danger and congestion in travel and transportation and other express purposes of zoning. Setbacks may vary from zoning district to zoning district dependent on the varying purposes. Setbacks: Albemarle County: Regarding setbacks from public roads, County regulations vary in relation to the stated purposes of the various zoning districts (which are intended to be reflective of the Comprehensive Plan) as well as circumstances within an individual district. In addition, the County provides for private roads intended to effectuate Comprehensive Plan recommendations and setbacks from private roads are in all cases less restrictive than setbacks from public roads (One exception is the RA zone which allows a reduced setback for new internal public roads). For non-residential zoning districts, setbacks from public roads were established based upon the purposes of the various zoning districts and the intensity of uses allowed within the districts. For commercial districts, setbacks were established at thirty (30) feet in recognition that retail and other commercial establishments, though varying in intensity of uses, require certain visual 3 exposure from public roads. For industrial districts, setbacks from public roads were established at fifty (50) feet in recognition that industrial uses do' not require public road exposure to the degree of commercial uses. For the Rural Areas and lower density residential districts, building height is limited to thirty-five (35) feet. Higher density residential districts as well as commercial and industrial districts permit a sixty-five (65) foot height, however, building setback from rural, single-family residential areas and public roads is increased by two (2) feet for each one (I) foot of height above thirty-five (35) feet. Among reasons for such increased setback are consideration of"daylighting" the road pavement in winter months to reduce snow removal costs as well as aesthetic concern of massive buildings overwhelming the traveler's experience. Setbacks for individual uses (regardless of zoning district) were established in supplementary regulations or overlay districts based upon objectionable aspects of the use and the unlikelihood that such use could comply with performance standards or other requirements at a lesser setback (Note: Supplementary regulations may be relaxed in a particular case under specified criteria including demonstration that the purpose of the restriction may be otherwise satisfied). Of particular note is that the original text of the 1980 Zoning Ordinance contained provision that allowed the Planning Commission to reduce building setback within the C- 1 Commercial zoning district in recognition of historic development patterns. The C-1 district was proposed by the Planning Commission to provide for central-business district style of development in the Urban Area, Communities, and Villages. The Planning Commission also recommended that C-1 zoning be applied to the then forty or so active country stores. Staff prepared a text intended to recognize the historic development patterns that existed in Crozet, Scottsville and for the country stores and made allowance for continuation of those patterns. This provision (as well as most maximum coverage regulations) was repealed in 1985 at time of adoption of the landscaping provisions of the site plan ordinance. Finally, for commercial and industrial uses, setbacks are required from public roads only. No specific setback is required from private roads, however, consideration to utility locations and maintenance of sight distance are factors. This is to encourage innovation in design and particularly to encourage clustering of uses withoUt penalty of land lost to setback requirements (i.e.- Fashion Square Mall consists of six parcels served by an internal private road system). Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Plan encourages design to increase pedestrian access and reduce vehicular usage, which is reflected in the design concept. More specifically, the Comprehensive Plan General Land Use Standards recommend that "to the extent reasonable and feasible given site constraints, site development should encourage building orientation to public streets. Parking areas need not be located exclusively in front of buildings." North Fork Park: Setback Reduction From Internal Public Roads: During its design visioning process, UREF has developed a developmental concept which requires reduced setback 4 from the internal public roadways. More specifically in regard to the public need or benefit, the applicant has stated that (Attachment C): A request is made to reduce building setback along public rights-of-way from fifty to ten feet. This reduction in setback will help to improve the urban character of the park, support the design vision for the park by more clearly defining the public realm, and provide a more inviting and pedestrian accessible arrangement of buildings for both visitors and park tenants. Some residents along Rte. 606 have expressed concern that reducing building setback from internal roadways would result in parking areas located closer to the perimeter of the development. Staff would emphasize that no reduction in the 150 foot buffer from Rte. 606 is proposed (The regulatory setback for office buildings is normally 50 feet and parking setback is normally 30 feet from public roads). staff opinion is that the requested variation is consistent with recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The proffered setback from Rte. 606 is a five-fold parking setback and a three-fold building setback from basic zoning regulations. Staff opinion is that the only identifiable issue may be increased public costs for snow removal, which staff does not believe would be significant. Provided that no interference occurs with required sight distance along the roadways and that the reduced setback does not interfere with utility location (which can be addressed with individual site plans), staff would recommend that the Planning Commission as provided by section 8.5.4.d. recommend approval of the applicants requested setback variation to the Board of Supervisors. In accord with section 8.5.5, should the Board approve this request, a revised Application Plan depicting the setback variation must be submitted within sixty days of Board approval. ~IBSON MOUNTAIN BUCK ' -.~-~.

What public need or benefit does this rezoning serve? A request is made to reduce building setback along public rights-of-way from fifty feet to ten feet, This reduction in setback will help to improve the urban character of the park, support the design vision for the park by more clearly defining the public realm, and provide a more ~nviting and pedestrian accessible arrangement of buildings for both visitors and park tenants. 2. Are public water, sewer, and roads available to serve this site? Will there be any impact on these facilities? A reduction of the building Setback requirements will have no impact on public utilities 3. What impact will there be on the County's natural, scenic, and historic resources.~ A reduction of the building setback requirements wilt have no impact on the County's natural, scenic, and historic resources. But would allow for the buikting arrangement to be more compatible with the architectural legacy of Albemarle Count's' and the region. 4. Do you have any plans to develop the property if the rezoning is approved.~ If so, please describe: Development will be in accord with approved application plan with the exception of the reduced setback. 5. Describe your request in detail, including why you are requesting this particular zoning district. No change m zoning district is desired. A request is made to reduce building setback along public rights- of-way from fifty feet to ten feet. The opportunity to reduce building setback was not available to the applicant at the time of initial planned development approval. A zoning text amendment has been submitted which now enables the Board of Supervisors to consider reduced building setbacks appropriate to the desired urban character of the park. ATTACHMENT D During public hearings on the Comprehensive Plan Amendments which preceded the rezoning petition, residents in the Rte. 606 area expressed many concerns about the proposed North Fork Business Park. In January, 1995 staff received copy ora letter from Lake Acres to UREF which proposed inclusion of agreements between Lake Acres and UREF as "specific provisions in the final rezoning agreement between the County of Albemarle and the University's Foundation." The original Lake Acres proposal contained 12 items. In response to these concerns: UREF modified the Application Plan to show a 150 foot setback buffer along its entire frontage on Rte. 606. Sites A, B-l, and B-4 are limited to general office uses. Site B-7 is limited to general office and flex/industrial uses, while Sites B-8 and F-lA are approved for general office, flex/industrial, industrial, and laboratory uses. Regarding stormwater and erosion concerns, in addition to applicable County regulation, UREF has developed a master stormwater management plan, proffered to be implemented in phases. UREF amended the proffers to include prohibition of stadium or field lighting of the recreation area/playing fields in the open space area between sites B4 and B-7 (Staff recommends that this not be deemed to be a prohibition to appropriate security and street lighting). VDOT has agreed to staff recommendation that bridge weight limitation signage be placed at the Quail Run/Rte. 606 intersection. While this would not prohibit truck traffic on Rte. 606 north of Quail Run, it would be a forewarning to responsible truck drivers. VDOT has agreed to delete recommendation that a dedicated right turn lane be constructed from Quail Run onto Rte. 606. Such a feature could entreat general traffic to travel north on Rte. 606 UREF changed the Application Plan to delete direct access from Site F-lA to Rte. 606. All development sites will be accessed only by the internal road system with no direct access to external roadways. ATTACHMENT E RESOLUTION TO APPROVE ZMA-95-04 UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA REAL ESTATE FOUNDATION Whereas, in accordance with Section 15.1-431 of the Code of Virginia and Section 33 of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance, a public hearing was advertised, adioining property 6~rners notified, and a hearing scheduled on ZMA 95-04, University of Virginia Real Estate Foun. dation, to consider the rezoning of approximately 525 acres from PA, PD-IP, R-I, and LI to PD-IP, as more particularly identified in the zoning application; and Whereas, this application and the attached proffers are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, good zoning practices, and supported by the reasons set forth in the staff report. Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved that the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County, Virginia hereby approves ZMA-95-04 with proffers, such proffers being dated March 21, 1996 and being attached hereto and made a part of this approval. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that included within this approval is the approval of the following special use permits with the stated conditions: (A) SP-95-40 Laboratori,'e~,, conditioned upon: Compliance with Section 4.14 Performance Standards of the Zoning Ordinance; Building location shall not be less than thirty (30) feet from the perimeter btiffer areas to adioining properties not located within the development. (B) SP-95-41 Supporting Commercial Uses, conditioned upon: RECEIVED Planning Dept. In addition to proffered limitation not to exceed five (5%) percent of total floor area, commercial uses shall not exceed ten (10%) percent of total floor area at any time during phased development. (C) SP-95-42 Hotels. Motels. Inns, conditioned upon: Not more than one hotel, motel, or inn shall be permitted. Such hotel, motel, or inn shall not exceed two hundred fifty (250) lodging rooms. Conference facilities (other than those as may be provided by ..individual occupants) shall not be required to locate internal to nor on the same site as the hotel/motel/inn, but total gross floor area of lodging and conference facilities shall not exceed 190,000 square feet. The time limit to commence the above special uses shall be extended for so long as the application plan for ZMA-95-04 remains valid. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that there are no modifications pursuant to § 8.5.5 of the Albemarle County Zoning Oidinance, but the following findings are stated for purposes of clarification: Uses and treatment of "open space" shall be as defined in and governed by the proffers. Since "open space" is not required for a Planned Development - Industrial Park and provision of open space is voluntarily proffered by the applicant, the open space areas shall not be governed by Section 4.7 of the Zoning Ordinance. The approval of the special use permits with the extended time for commencing the uses shall not preclude the Board from revoking any special use permit for wilful noncompliance as set forth in Section 31.2.4.4 of th'e Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance. The terms General Office, Light Industrial and F/ex Industrial as set forth in UREF, Volume 1, Part IX of the zoning application shall, in addition to Zoning Ordinance definitions, guide the Zoning Administrator in use determinations. In the event of definitional conflict between the Zoning Ordinance and UREF descriptions, UREF descriptions shall apply. In such case in which more that fifty (50%) percent of the floor area for a Flex Industrial use is developed to office use, the entire floor area shall be deemed to be General Office. In such case in which less than fifty (50%) percent of the floor area for a F/ex Industrial use is devoted to office use, the Page 2 of 3 entire floor area shall be deemed to be Light Industrial. This provision shall apply only for determination of maximum square footage by type of use. This provision shall not apply to calculation of parking requirements or other requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, nor to any requirements of the Uniform Statewide Building Code nor to any other ordinance or regulation related to '[ype of usage of buildings and structures. I, Ella W. Carey, do hereby certify that the foregoing writing is a true, correct copy of a Resolution duly adopted by the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County by vote of 4 to 2 on June 5, 1996.

Wetlands, as defined by the Federal Manual for Identifying and Delineating Vegetated Wetlands, in effect on the date of these proffers, shall not be disturbed in the Project except for the installation and use of roads, permanent retention ponds, utilities and walking trails, or any other uses approved by the County after obtaining all necessary federal, state and local permits and approvals. 4.4 Water Conservation. No single industrial or commercial user which proposes a use that will require more than 125,000 gallons per day (average daily consumption) of potable water shall be constructed without obtaining County approval. The County shall consider whether to approve such a user through the same procedures as required in an application for special use permit (including the same notice requirements, public hearings, and Planning Commission review as in the process for considering a special use permit). The County's approval shall be limited solely to issues of water 4 usage and must include a finding that sufficient capacity exists to support such a user. The County's approval may include reasonable conditions relating to water usage. V. TRANSPORTATION 5.1 Internal Road-Network. Applicant shall provide vehicular access within the Project by an internal road network generally in the locations shown on the attached Exhibit 5.1, ("Internal Road Network"). Applicant shall design~' construct, and install signs and signalization for the Internal Road Network in accordance with minimum standards of the Virginia Deparmaent of Transportation CVDOT"), unless VDOT approves a lesser standard at Applicant's request. Applicant shall make the necessary modifications to previously constructed intersections to the extent that subsequent development of areas within the Project impacts such previously constructed intersections, including modification of the Internal Road Network design and signalization for such intersections. The exact location of roadways depicted on Exhibit 5.1 shall be subject to adjustment during the subdivision plat/site plan approval process. 5.2 Road Construction Standards. (a) All internal roads which serve an area submitted to the County for site plan approval, (and other Internal Road Network improvements which VDOT and the County reasonably determine are necessary for safe and convenient access to such area) shall be constructed or bonded for construction and dedicated for public use, for acceptance into the state highway system at the time of recordation of the final subdivision plat recordation for each applicable area or at the time of issuance of a certificate of occupancy for development under a site development plan. (b) Applicant shall construct the Internal Road Network in phases according to Exhibit 5.3. The proffer to construct roads to VDOT standards shall not require completion of construction of such roads, or segments thereof, before the issuance of the first certificates of occupancy for a building served by that road, or segment thereof, so long as adequate bonds are in place and so long as the Zoning Administrator determines that safe and convenient access to public roads is preserved in accordance with Section 31.2.3 of the Ordinance. Before issuance of certificates of occupancy, however Applicant shall complete that segment of road which serves the building for which a certificate of occupancy is sought with at least the base and one (1) layer of plant mix asphalt. The final layer of plant mix asphalt may be withheld until all sewer lines, water lines and other conduits have been placed under the pavement but will be completed to an approved VDOT pavement depth and design before the request for VDOT acceptance of the road. Applicant shall be responsible for the maintenance of the roads within the Internal Road Network until they have been accepted into the state system for maintenance. 5 5.3 Phases of Development. The following schedule shall apply for determining the timing of road improvements set forth in 5.4 below: PHASE I Land Use (1) Maximum · ~ Cumulative .Build-out(2) Maximum ]~ild-out to be accessed by Road A (all uses): 635,000 Support Commercial to 85,000(2) Maximum Build-out to be accessed by Rt. 606 (all uses): 345,000 General Office limited to: 120,000 Support Commercial limited to: 25,000 Maximum Total Build-out, Phase I (all uses) 980,000(3) PHASE II Maximum Cumulative Land Use (1) Build-out (2) General Office: 1,068,000 Support Commercial: 110,000 Hotel: 190,000 Maximum'Total Build-out, Phase II (all uses) 1,568,000(3) PHASE III -' Cumulative Land Use ( .1 ~ Build-out(2.)

"Hotel" shall have the definition set forth in the Ordinance. "Support Commercial" shall mean those uses listed on the "Non-Residential Land Use Guidelines" Table, Village and Neighborhood Service Areas, Typical Primary Uses Section, in Section 9.0 of the Ordinance as.well as the following uses: copy centers, florists, newsstands, pipe and tobacco shOps, barber and beauty shops and tailor shops. Total gross floor area, in square feet. (3) Note: Nothing contained herein shall restrict Applicant from altering the mix of land use types within any Phase of development in accordance with the Project Zoning Application Plan. Applicant proffers that the total build-out of Hotel, General Office and Support Commercial use for any given Phase shall not exceed the gross floor area limitations shown in the charts above. 5.4 Proffered Road Improvements. Applicant shall design, construct and/or contribute for road improvements in phases. Road improvement proffers in this section 5.4 shall not include dedication of land unless expressly provided for herein. All construction by Applicant of offsite road improvements shall be conditioned upon the County or VDOT obtaining required right-of-way, (if such right-of-way is not owned in fee simple by Applicant), unless expressly provided herein. So long as Applicant is ready, willing and able to construct an improvement as provided in these proffers, even though the necessary right-of-way is not available, (and in the instances in which Applicant has proffered to acquire right-of-way, and the Applicant has made good faith efforts to acquire the land necessary for such right-of-way) Applicant shall not be precluded from developing the approved density build-out under the applicable zoning, unless the improvement is otherwise required by applicable regulations or ordinances. Unless an earlier time is required below, the road improvements described in this Section 5.4 for each applicable phase shall be completed or bonded, or contributed for (as set forth below), before constructing each phase's Maximum Total Build-out as set forth in 5.3 above. (a) Applicant shall satisfy the following Phase I road proffers before the Maximum Total Build-out, Phase I (as shown in 5.3 above) is constructed or earlier if (i) specified in this 5.4 (a), or (ii) a need is created by such development and is demonstrated by a traffic study approved by VDOT. In general, the proffered Phase I road improvements shall be as described on Exhibit 5.3 attached hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Applicant shall be permitted to construct beyond the Total Maximum Build-out, Phase I in advance of satisfying all Phase I road proffers, if a traffic study approved by VDOT demonstrates that the following intersections will function, with the proposed additional building construction, at a Level of Service "D" (LOS D) or better: (i) Route 649 and Road A, (ii) Route 606 and Quail Run, (iii) Route 606 and Route 649, and (iv) Road A and U.S. 29. Applicant shall design and construct a northbound turn lane from Route 606 onto Quail Run for approximately 150 feet from the existing intersection. 7 (b) (2) (3) Applicant shall acquire (or reimburse the acquiring governmental entity for acquisition costs, if Applicant is unable to acquire) right of way for, design and construct two northbound left turn lanes on U.S. 29 at the intersection of Road A (North Fork Entrance) and U.S. 29. Applicant shall acquire (or reimburse the acquiring governmental entity for acquisition costs, if Applicant is unable to acquire) right of way for, design and construct a channelized southbound right turn lane on U.S. 29. The Road A exit shall include dedication, design and construction of two eastbound left turn lanes and two eastbound right turn lanes. The entrance at Road A also shall include dedication, design and construction of two westbound through lanes. (4) Applicant shall install, or pay for the installation of all traffic signals necessary for appropriate traffic control at the improved intersection at U.S. 29 and Road A no later than completion of the two northbound left turn lanes on U.S. 29 (referenced in proffer 5.4(a)(2) above). If an additional road is added to such intersection to satisfy needs of other development in the County however, Applicant's signalization requirement shall not include improvements serving such additional road. Provided that all construction of the turn lanes is completed within 10 year. from the date of final approval of this Application, Applicant shall contribute upon completion of two left turn lanes at the intersection of U.S. 29 and Route 649, the total sum of $78,718.00 (Applicant's "Contribution"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Applicant's Contribution may be used, at the County's discretion, to fund prior to completion of the project, a portion of the design and engineering costs in order to expedite the widening of Route 649 from two lanes to four lanes so long as Applicant is afforded the opportunity to participate in such design and engineering process. In the event that the Contribution, after it is received by the County, is not used, within 10 years either for construction of the turn lanes, or for the design and engineering costs for Route 649 widening, then the Contribution shall be returned to the Applicant, without interest. Applicant shall satisfy the following Phase II road proffers before the Maximum Total Build-out, Phase II is Constructed (but not before the Maximum Total Build- out, Phase I is constructed) (as set forth in 5.3 above) or earlier if (i) specified in this 5.4 (b), or (ii) a need is created by such development and is demonstrated by a traffic study approved by VDOT (provided however that if the site development plan review process does not otherwise require Applicant to supply a traffic study, Applicant will provide at least a traffic count upon the County's request for evidence that such need has not been created): (1) Applicant shall design, dedicate, and construct within the Project a two lane collector road extending from U.S. 29 to Route 649 through the North Fork Project within six months of the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy 8 (c) for a building constructed after construction of the Maximum Total Build- out, Phase I (980,000 gross floor area). Applicant shall dedicate and widen to four lanes the two lane collector road extending from U.S. 29 to 649 when traffic volumes within the Project create the need for such widening. (2) Applicant shall design, dedicate and construct at the Route 649 entrance: "two southbound left turn lanes on Road A, one southbound right turn lane on Road ~A, and two northbound through lanes on Road A. (3) Applicant shall construct at the intersection at Road A and Route 649: one westbound right turn lane on Route 649, and one eastbound left turn lane on Route 649. (4) Applicant shall design and install all traffic signals necessary for appropriate traffic control at the intersection of Route 649 and Road A as improved in satisfying these Phase II road proffers, but no later than when a need is created by the Project. Construction of improvements may proceed up to the Maximum Total Build-out, Phase III described in 5.3 above if any one of the following conditions shall have been satisfied (but such conditions shall not be conditions for constructing the Maximum Total Build-out for Phases I and II): (1) Applicant shall design and construct (within existing right of way) the addition of a third southbound through lane on U.S. 29 from the entrance to North Fork at Road A to Route 649. In the alternative, if VDOT requires, and at the County's direction, Applicant shall contribute an amount equal to the design and construction costs which would otherwise be contributed by Applicant for an additional southbound through lane on U.S. 29 for the purpose of constructing of a grade separated interchange at the intersection of Route 29 and the entrance to North Fork. Nothing contained herein however shall be deemed to be a proffer by Applicant to construct such a grade separated interchange. (2) Before the issuance of the first certificate of occupancy for improvements in excess of the Total Maximum Build-out, Phase II, VDOT shall have approved funding for the design and construction of the widening of U.S. 29 to six through lanes between the entrance to North Fork at Road A to Route 649. (3) Construction may nevertheless continue in excess of the Total Maximum Build-out, Phase II (but in no event beyond the limitation contained in 3.1) without all the road improvements having been completed as contemplated in (1) and (2) above so long as Applicant can demonstrate to VDOT through traffic studies approved by VDOT that acceptable levels of service (LOS "D", or better for U.S. 29 and Route 649 intersection) can be maintainea with existing, or alternative improvements. (d) Applicant shall dedicate within its Project, an area necessary for construction of a grade separated interchange. The approximate location shall be as designated on Exhibit 5.3 as "Future Right of Way Area for Grade Separated Interchange." Applicant shall dedicate such area without consideration, and when the interchange is to be constructed. It is Applicant's desire to participate in the design for such interchange so that Applicant may preserve the aesthetic features of the Project's entrance. .- - VI. RECREATIONAL AREAS AND OPEN SPACE 6.1 Developed Recreational Areas. Applicant shall develop active recreation and picnic areas as shown on the attached Open Space System Phasing Plan (Exhibit 6.1). Phasing of the Open Space System improvements shall follOw the phasing schedule of proffered road improvements as set forth in 5.4 above.

The five acre parcel shall be located on Parcel D in the area designated on the Zoning Application Plan. This proffer may be satisfied by Applicant's acquiring and dedicating an alternative parcel of land located offsite that is acceptable to the County. So that the Project's design integrity, as contemplated in Applicant's Desigz Guidelines, may be maintained it is Applicant's desire that it be consulted on the exterior design of the fire station if it will located within the Project.

AGENDA TITLE: FY 1999/00 Budget Resolution SUBJECT/PROPOSAL/REQUEST: Request Board adoption of FY 1999/00 Operating Budget STAFF CONTACT(S): Tucker, White, Gulati AGENDA DATE: April14,1999 ACTION: X ITEM NUMBER: INFORMATION: CONSENT AGENDA: ACTION: INFORMATION: ATTACHMENTS: Yes REVIEWED B~ BACKGROUND: On April 7, 1999, a public hearing was held on the Board Supervisors' proposed operating budget for FY 1999/00. The proposed budget, which totaled $146.0 million, represented a $548,123 increase over the County Executive's recommended budget. Since that time, $285,847 in school revenues have been added to the proposed budget, for a total budget of $146,325,348. The attached resolution to adopt this proposed budget must be approved at the April 14, 1999 meeting. DISCUSSION: The attached resolution (Attachment C) formally approves the proposed expenditures for FY '1999/00, which total $146,325,348. This budget represents an increase of $285,847 over the $146.0 million budget discussed at the April 7th public hearing. Attachment A summarizes these changes, as well as changes to the County Executive's recommended budget made during work sessions. Changes to the Board's Proposed Budget: Changes to the Board of Supervisors' proposed operating budget total $285,847 and include the following: General Fund. The adopted budget adds $11,196 in additional projected early retirement costs for General Government, reflecting late early retirement requests. These additional expenditures were funded by an offsetting reduction in Board of Supervisors' contingency reserves. Revised E~oard contingency reserves total $56,932, of which $50,000 has been set aside for a potential CTS bus route to the Pantops area of the County, leaving $6,932 in available resources. School Fund. The adopted budget also adds $163,637 in net revenues to the school operations budget presented at the April 7`n public hearing. These additional funds consist of $178,167 in state revenues (reflecting adjustments by the General Assembly to the Governor's proposed budget and additional funding for teachers) and $120,140 in federal revenues for special education, and are net of the $150,000 in school carry-over added by the Board during budget work sessions. (The School Board has requested that these additional carry-over funds be removed from the budget for FY 99/00, based on the School Board's planned use of current year energy/heating savings for CSA and school safety audit work.) Additionally, $15,330 in additional transfer revenues from the County Health Fund have been added to the budget, to offset a $24,000 increase in expenditures for health care consultant services. (The remainder of the health care consultant costs were funded with School Board reserves.) These additional state and federal revenues, when combined with revised School Board' contingency reserves of $50,237 and the $300,000 in additional General Fund transfer allocated to the schools during Board work sessions, provide the schools with total available resources of $648,544, which may be used toward funding the $990,679 in unfunded School Board initiatives. Self-Sustaining Funds. Expenditure and revenue additions to the school self-sustaining funds total $122,210. Summary of Changes to the Recommended Budget Made During Board Work Sessions: As you may recall, changes to the County Executive's recommended budget made during budget work sessions totaled $548,123 and included the following: General Fund. Expenditure changes in the General Fund totaled $398,123 and reflected the net impact of $29,171 in miscellaneous expenditure reductions, the use of $131,872 in budgeted Board reserves and $559,166 in funded additions to the recommended budget. These additions included $300,000 in funding for the School Division (consisting of $200,000 in additional one-time transfer and $100,000 in additional recurring funds,) plus $259,166 for the following new initiatives: a second traffic officer for the Community Policing Unit, an expanded Emergency Services Coordinator position at the ECC, additional hunting control enforcement funds, an Engineering Office Associate, agency funding for SARA and the Music Resource Center, and a $150,000 contribution to initiate funding for the Acquisition of Conservation Easements. Funding for these additional expenditures was derived from the General Fund balance ($200,000 for the one-time school transfer and $150,000 for the acquisition of conservation easements), $32,250 in additional federal revenues and local fees for the second traffic officer, and $15,873 in miscellaneous revenue adjustments. School Fund. The Board of Supervisors also added $150,000 in school fund carry-over to the schools operations budget from current year energy/ hearing savings. (As previously mentioned, these additional carry-over funds have been removed from the adopted budget at the School Board's request.) Alternative Resolution - MACAA's Head Start Program One issue remaining to be addressed from the Board work sessions is funding for MACAA's Head Start Program, for which County funding of $7,211 has been requested. The attached report (Attachment B) provides supplemental information about the program and summarizes the funding recommendations of staff. Should the Board of Supervisors decide to fund this program, funding could be provided from a combination of Board contingency reserves ($6,932) and additional General Fund carry-over ($279.) This funding strategy would leave only the $50,000 previously set aside for the proposed Pantops bus route in the Board's contingency reserve. The resolution to adopt an alternative County budget which includes funding for Head Start is presented as Attachment D. RECOMMENDATION: If the Board has no further additions or deletions to the proposed budget, staff requests approval of the resolution in Attachment C. Should the Board of Supervisors elect to add funding for Head Start to the budget, staff requests approval of the resolution in Attachment D. 99.063 Attachment A Board of Supervisors' FY 1999/00 Adopted Budget Summary of Budget Changes 4/8/99 14:15 Summary.

The program was not recommended for funding by the County/City Budget Review Team for several reasons. One reason was the team's understanding that the provision of special education services to children over the age of 2 is by federal and state law the responsibility of the respective school divisions. The second reason was the team's hesitation to begin funding what has historically been a federally funded pre-school program when both the city and county have their own state and locally supported four-year old programs. Ken Ackerman, MACAA's Executive Director appeared before the Board on March 22nd to request funding for this position. The Board asked staff to provide additional information to the Board at the April 14th meeting in order to make a final funding decision on their request. DISCUSSION: Further communication with MACAA and school division staff has clarified the request and, more specifically, has shed additional light on the division of responsibilities between MACAA's Disabilities Coordinator and the Albemarle County school division for providing special services to preschooi children. There are currently 37 Aibemade County children enrolled in Headstart, 14 of whom have been identified as having special education needs. Staff received copies of the federal audit completed last May, which cited MACAA's Headstart program as "substantially out of compliance in Early Childhood Development and Disabilities Services areas". The report indicated that less than 4% of the children enrolled were diagnosed as disabled and received services. Although MACAA provided a list of 22 children with disabilities, only three had IEP's completed and there was no documentation of any follow-up services. Classroom staff had no knowledge of any special services needed for these children and again there was no follow-up evaluation, in summary, the findings stated that "there is no system or program wide effort in place to ensure the inclusion of children with disabilities and their families. A complete disabilities system must be developed beginning with screenings, thorough assessment and professiOnal evaluations, the development and implementation of IEP's and transition into the school system." it also included the following stipulation, "the grantee must designate a coordinator of services for children with disabilities. This individual must be a part-time or full-time person". As a result of this serious federal audit, MACAA hired a full-time Disabilities Coordinator in November to provide the required services. The job description for this position describes the responsibilities as assessing the need for special education services, working in collaboration with other agencies, including the school division, working with the families, and working with the classroom teachers to ensure that these services are provided on an ongoing basis. The coordinator will be responsible for referring the identified children to the school division for iEP's and the identified services, such as speech therapy, counseling, etc. Therefore, the Disability Coordinator's role will be to provide the assessment, referral, coordination, and follow-up for the special services, whereas the school division will be responsible for evaluating the child through the IEP process, recommending specific services and then providing those special services. Shared responsibilities between MACAA and the school division will be beneficial to the identified children and their families, if a truly collaborative process is followed. This unfortunately does not seem to have been the case in the past. Although the audit clearly identified areas of concern last summer, MACAA did not contact the school division to discuss how they might work better together to provide needed services. The School Division was not only unaware of any problems, but was not even aware that MACAA had a new Disabilities Coordinator. if one of MACAA's justifications for this position is that the schools cannot "respond in a timely and comprehensive manner" then they need to address those problems with the school division, if it is to be a shared partnership, then discussion and follow through must occur if services to Headstart children are to improve. MACAA submitted a copy of the 1997 service agreement, which delineates the responsibilities between Headstart and the school division. However, MACAA does not have a 1998 agreement with the school division, although renegotiating the annual LEA agreement with the School division is one of the stated responsibilities of the disabilities coordinator. Therefore, at this time there is no clear or agreed upon definition of responsibilities between Headstart and the school division. RECOMMENDATION: Since it is very clear from the federal audit that Albemarle County children enrolled in Headstart may not be receiving the special education services they need due to inadequate assessment and follow-up, staff recommends that the county fund its share of MACAA's Disabilities Coordinator. it is in the County's best interest to see that these children receive these needed services at an early age prior to entering the school system. However, in conjunction with County funding, MACAA must be charged with the immediate discussion, agreement and signing of an annual service agreement with the school division. Additionally, the Head start Disabilities Coordinator must be accountable for monitoring and documenting the services provided to Albemarle County children in the Headstart program, as well as developing a comprehensive transitional program for Albemarle County children entering kindergarten. Continuation of this funding should be contingent on the Disabilities Coordinator's ability to improve special education services to Albemarle County children enrolled in the Headstart program and to develop a true collaborative partnership with the school division in delivering these services.

This total includes $82,767,565 for School Fund operations and $7,397,890 in self-sustaining fund operations. The proposed adopted budget represents a $735,847 increase over the County Executive's recommendation, reflecting the addition of $298,307 in new state and federal funding, $15,330 in additional County Health Fund transfer, and $300,000 in additional General Fund transfer (of which $100,000 is recurring and $200,000 is one-time) which the Board of Supervisors approved during work sessions to help address the School Board's requested $0.977 million shortfall.
