RE: ZMA20.1 1 -00001 Fontana Trails Proffer Amendment
Gentlemen:
From recent conversations and emails, there appears -to be confusion overthe action of
-the Planning Commission on April 19, 2011 related tothe.ZMA referenced above. There
also continues to be confusion over whether all- trails have been completed and have
passed inspection. Please let me begin this letter by saying,'YOUR PROJECT IS NOT
APPROVED AT THIS TIME. There is more work -to be done.
An email received Thursday, August 18 indicated that Mr. Nichols believes that the
Planning Commission approved waivers -for the pathways in Fontana. The Planning
Commission did not approve any "waivers" on April 19,2011 when -they heldtheir
public hearing on.ZMA 2011 - 00001. Please seethe attachment -to -this letter.
The Commission voted -to recommend approval of- thelMA with changes. The needed
.changes were (1) provision of an up -to -date map showing constructed and proposed
- trails (2) changed proffers -that reference the new map, and (3) provision of an
additional proffer stating that the trail system wouldbe completed by May 1,:2012. To
date, only item (1) has been provided.
Items 2 & 3 are still needed. If the County Engineer determines that the trails are all -
complete before you provide the proffer amendment, then, only item 2 is needed. For
item 2, we need a written replacement proffer on the form previously provided, which
references the up -to -date map by name, date, and preparer.
I will let -the County Engineer respond -to issues related to- bonding. I hope- that -this
letter answers any questions about -the steps needed -to bring this project to the Board
of Supervisors -for final action. Please let me know if 1 can provide additional
information, or clarify any outstanding issues.
Sincerely,
Elaine K. Echols

RE: ZMA =11 -01 Fontana Submittal #3 dated July 6, 2011
Dear Mr. Nichols:
401 McIntire Road, Room 218
Charlottesville, Virginia 22902 -4596
Fax (434) 972 - 4035
Thank you for your recent submittal of the plan entitled Fontana Subdivision, Pedestrian Path
Plan, June 14, 2011, prepared by Terra Engineering and Land Solutions. You provided this plan
on July 7 and, although it was after the deadline, we accepted it for review according to the July
5 resubmittal schedule.
Planning, Zoning, and Engineering staff have reviewed the Pedestrian Path Plan and concluded
that it addresses all prior comments and meets the expectations of the Planning Commission.
In order for the Board of Supervisors to accept your request to modify the commitment to build
in accordance with the revised pedestrian plan, revised proffers are needed. You provided signed
proffers on February 22, 2011, but, unfortunately, they reference an earlier plan. The County
Attorney's office has advised us that these proffers will not allow the Board of Supervisors to
approve your request.
The following language would be acceptable and a full set of proffers (as I provided in June)
would not have to be signed. The highlighted portions are the portions of the proffer that would
need to be changed from the February 22, 2011 proffers. The May 1, 2012 deadline was
recommended by the Planning Commission.
11 Plan for Pedestrian Paths for Phases 1, 2, 3, 4A and 413 of Fontana 'Subdivision: The
Owner shall construct pedestrian paths in Phases 1, 2,3, -4A and 4B of Fontana Subdivision in
accordance with the standards and locations shown on the plan entitled "Fontana Subdivision
Pedestrian Path Plan" i» epared by Terra Engineering and Land Solutions and dated June 14,
2011. These paths shall be completed to the satisfaction of the County Engineer by May 1, 2012
and prior to grading in Phase 4C.
I have attached a proffer form which you could use. Please make sure that the 2011 ZMA
number and the ZMA amendment numbers be placed correctly on the form. As I indicated in an
email June 15, a representative from the Owner's Association, who is authorized by their
Bylaws, will also need to sign the proffers. This is because the Owner's Association is the legal
owner of record on Tax Parcel 78E -E. Stan Rose signed the rezoning application and the
February 22 proffers. If he is to sign the new proffers, his name should be printed exactly as it is
listed on the Owner's Association documents and his signature should match the printed name.
The exact name of the Owner's Association should also be on the proffers.
Resubmittal and Public Hearing
Within 30 days of the date of this letter, please do one of the following:
(1) Submit the revised signed proffers on resubmittal date found on the County's
resubmittal schedule, which may be found at this website location:
http: / /www.albemarle.org/upload /images /forms center /departments /Community Dev
elopment /forms /schedules /Special Use Permit & Zoning Map Amendment Sched
ule.pdf
OR
(2) Request indefinite deferral and state your justification for requesting the deferral.
(Indefinite deferral means that you intend to resubmit /request a public hearing be set
with the Board after the 30 day period.)
A public hearing date with the Board of Supervisors of September 14 is tentatively set for this
project. In order for you to keep this date, the revised proffers must be received by August 15
and they must be in order. If you choose not to submit revised proffers, you may continue to
request September 14 for the Board's public hearing. However, the Board will be unable to
approve your request because the existing proffers and the plan title and date do not match.
Please be advised that, once a public hearing has been advertised, only one deferral prior to the
Board's public hearing will be allowed during the life of the application. The only exception tc
this rule will be extraordinary circumstances, such as a major change in the project proposal by
the applicant or more issues identified by staff that have not previously been brought to the
applicant's attention.
It is my sincerest hope that you and the Owner's Association representative will be able to sign
the proffers so that this project can be acted on by the Board of Supervisors, at their next
available date, which is September 14. I look forward to receiving the revised proffers by
August 15 or sooner.
