conditions are proffered as a part of the PRD zoning applicable to the Property and the Owner acknowledges that
the conditions are reasonable. Each signatory below signing on behalf of the Owner covenants and warrants that it
is an authorized signatory of the Owner for this Proffer Statement.
1) AFFORDABLE HOUSING
The Owner will provide a minimum of six (6) affordable housing units within the Project in the form of for
lease or for sale affordable dwelling units (the "Affordable Dwelling Units" or "Affordable Units"). Each
subdivision plat and site plan for land within the Property shall designate the lots or units, as applicable, that
will, subject to the terms and conditions of this proffer condition, incorporate Affordable Units as described
herein,and the aggregate number of such lots or units designated for Affordable Units within each subdivision
plat and site plan shall be referenced in such subdivision plat or site plan.
a) There shall be a maximum of 32 dwelling units on 30 lots in the development. The Affordable Dwelling
Units shall be comprised of one or more of the following unit types:
1. Single family townhomes OR
2. Units that will be constructed and maintained as two-family dwellings as defined in
the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code.
The Owner or his successor in interest reserves the right to achieve six (6) or more Affordable Dwelling
Units utilizing the above mentioned unit types alone or in combination as outlined below.The Owner shall
convey the responsibility of constructing the affordable units to any subsequent purchaser of the Property.
The current Owner or subsequent Owner shall create units affordable to households with incomes less than
80%of the area median family income(the"Affordable Unit Qualifying Income"),such that housing costs
consisting of principal, interest, real estate taxes and homeowner's insurance (PITI) do not exceed 30% of
the Affordable Unit Qualifying Income;provided, however, that in no event shall the selling price of such
Affordable Units be more than sixty-five percent(65%) of the applicable Virginia Housing Development
Authority (VHDA) sales price/loan limits for VHDA's first-time homebuyer programs provided that the
selling price will be equal to or less than the Albemarle County affordable housing home price. This home
price will increase or decrease per year based on Albemarle County's designated affordable home pricing.
All financial programs or instruments described herein must be acceptable to the primary mortgage lender.
The value of Seller-paid closing costs shall be excluded from the selling price of such Affordable Dwelling
Units.
i) For-Sale Affordable Units - All purchasers of for-sale Affordable Units shall be approved by the
Albemarle County Office of Housing(the"Housing Office")or its designee. The Owner shall provide
the County or its designee a period of one hundred twenty (120) days to identify and pre-qualify an
eligible purchaser for the Affordable Units. The 120-day period shall commence upon written notice
from the Owner that the units will be available for sale. This notice shall not be given more than 90
days prior to the anticipated receipt of the certificate of occupancy. If the County or its designee does
not provide a qualified purchaser during this one hundred twenty (120) day period, the Owner shall
have the right to sell the Unit(s) without any restriction on sales price or income of purchaser(s);
provided, however, that any Units(s) sold or leased without such restriction shall nevertheless be
counted toward the number of Affordable Units required to be provided pursuant to the terms of this
proffer.If these Units are sold,this proffer shall apply only to the first sale of each unit. Nothing herein
shall preclude the then-current Owner/builder from working with the Housing Office prior to the start
of the notification periods described herein in an effort to identify qualifying purchasers for Affordable
Units.
b) County Option for Cash in Lieu of Affordable Units. If at any time prior to the County's approval of any
preliminary site plan or subdivision plat for the subject property which includes one or more for-sale
Affordable Dwelling Units, the Housing Office informs the then-current owner/builder in writing that it
may not have a qualified purchaser for one or more of the for-sale Affordable Dwelling Units at the time
that the then-current owner/builder expects the units to be completed, and that the County will instead
accept a cash contribution to the County to support affordable housing programs in the amount of Twenty
Four Thousand Three Hundred Seventy Five Dollars ($24,375.00) in lieu of each Affordable Unit(s), then
the then-current owner/builder shall pay such cash contribution to the County prior to obtaining a certificate
of occupancy for the Unit(s) that were originally planned to be Affordable Dwelling Units, and the then-
current owner/builder shall have the right to sell the Unit(s)without any restriction on sales price or income
of the purchaser(s). For the purposes of this proffer condition, such Affordable Dwelling Units shall be
deemed to have been provided when the subsequent owner/builder provides written notice to the Albemarle
County Office of Housing or its designee that the Affordable Units(s)will be available for sale.

a) The Owner shall contribute cash to the County in the following amounts for each dwelling unit
constructed within the Property that is not an Affordable Dwelling Unit.The cash contribution shall be used
only for capital improvements in the form of public facilities(i.e.,schools,public safety,libraries, parks or
transportation) located within the Scottsville magisterial district of the County and no funds shall be used
for capital improvements to any public facility existing as of the date of this Proffer Statement, such as a
renovation or technology upgrade,that does not expand the capacity of such facility. The cash contribution
shall not be used for any operating expense of any existing or new facility such as ordinary maintenance or
repair. The cash contribution for each individual dwelling unit shall be paid to the County after completion
of the final building inspection and prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the individual unit.
The cash contribution for each dwelling unit shall be based upon the type of the dwelling unit and in the
amount set forth for each type of dwelling unit as follows:

dwelling unit.
iii) Zero Dollars($0.00)for each Affordable Dwelling Unit.
b) Annual Adjustment of Cash Proffers: Beginning January 1, 2017, the amount of each cash contribution
required herein shall be adjusted annually until paid, to reflect any increase or decrease for the preceding
calendar year in the Marshall and Swift Building Costs Index (the "MSI"). In no event shall any cash
contribution amount be adjusted to a sum less than the amount initially established by these proffers. The
annual adjustment shall be made by multiplying the proffered cash contribution amount for the preceding
year by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Index as of December 1 in the preceding calendar
year, and the denominator of which shall be the Index as of December 1 in the year preceding thecalendar
year most recently ended. For each cash contribution that is being paid in increments, the unpaid
incremental payments shall be correspondingly adjusted each year.

19.1 INTENT,WHERE PERMITTED
PRD districts may hereafter be established by amendment to the zoning map in accordance with the
provisions set forth generally for PD districts in sections 8.0 and 33.0,and with densities and in locations in
accordance with the comprehensive plan.
The PRD is intended to encourage sensitivity toward the natural characteristics of the site and toward
impact on the surrounding area in land development. More specifically, the PRD is intended to promote
economical and efficient land use, an improved level of amenities, appropriate and harmonious physical
development, and creative design consistent with the best interest of the county and the area in which it is
located.
To these ends, the PRD provides for flexibility and variety of development for residential purposes and
uses ancillary thereto. Open space may serve such varied uses as recreation,protection of areas sensitive to
development,buffering between dissimilar uses and preservation of agricultural activity.
While a PRD approach is recommended for developments of any density, it is recommended but not
required that the PRD be employed in areas where the comprehensive plan recommends densities in excess
of fifteen(15)dwelling units per acre, in recognition that development at such densities generally requires
careful planning with respect to impact. (Amended 8-14-85)
19.2 APPLICATION
Notwithstanding the requirements and provisions of section 8.0, planned development districts, generally,
where certain planned community (PC) or residential planned neighborhood (RPN) districts have been
established prior to the adoption of this ordinance, such districts shall be considered to have been
established as PRD districts under this ordinance and shall be so designated on the zoning map.
