RE: SP-2001-048 Regional Public Safety Radio Project (Peters Mountain)
Tax Map 50, Parcel 1 D
Dear Mr. Campagna:
The Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, at its meeting on January 9, 2002, unanimously approved
the above-noted request. Please note that this approval is subject to the following conditions:
1. Findings by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources shall be submitted to the County
before this special use permit is exercised. Should the facility be determined to have adverse
effects on historic properties, based on findings of the Virginia Department of Historic Resources'
(DHR) cell pole review, the Emergency Communications Center shall seek methods of mitigating
those effects, subject to the approval of the Director of Planning and Community Development.
When making this determination the Planning Director may consult with the DHR for further
assistance in achieving acceptable means of mitigation.
2. Antennas, dishes and all equipment installed at this facility shall be limited to those that are
necessary for establishing the public service radio system. This facility shall not be used for the
provision of personal wireless communications services.
3. The top of the pole shall never exceed one hundred five (105) feet above the ground level, or one
thousand, seven hundred ninety-nine (1,799) feet tall as measured Above Sea Level (ASL).
4. Only the two (2) proposed whip antennas and required grounding rods shall be allowed to extend
above the top of the pole. In no cases shall those attachments extend more than twenty (20) feet
above the top of the pole.
5. The facility shall be designed, constructed and maintained as follows:
a. The pole, antennas, microwave dishes and all other equipment attached to it shall be
painted a non-reflective, dull brown color that reduces its contrast with the sky;
b. Guy wires shall not be permitted;
c. All ground equipment, utility building, concrete pads, and pole shall be dark brown in
color and shall be no larger than the specifications set forth in the attached plan Peter's
Mountain Site Plan and Elevation (on file); and
d. The mounting structure shall be a monopole of the minimum diameter necessary to
perform it's function and no greater than thirty-six (36) inches at the base and eighteen
(18) inches at the top

January 17, 2002
6. No lighting shall be permitted on the site or on the pole, except as provided here in
a Outdoor lighting shall be limited to periods of maintenance only;
b Each outdoor luminaire shall be fully shielded such that all light emitted is projected below
a horizontal plane running through the lowest part of the shield or shielding part of the
luminaire; and
c. For the purposes of this condition, a luminaire is a complete lighting unit consisting of a
lamp or lamps together with the parts designed to distribute the light, to position and
protect the lamps, and to connect the lamps to the power supply. In the event that any
agency requires that the tower must be lighted for any reason, then this special use
permit shall be resubmitted to the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors for
reapplication or modification as required by the Zoning Ordinance.
7. Prior to beginning construction or installation of the pole or the equipment cabinets, or installation
of access for vehicles or utilities, a tree conservation plan, developed by a certified arborist,
specifying tree protection methods and procedures, and identifying any existing trees to be
removed on the site both inside and outside the access easement and lease area shall be
submitted to the Director of Planning and Community Development for approval. All construction
or installation associated with the pole and equipment pad, including necessary access for
construction or installation, shall be in accordance with this tree conservation plan. Except for the
tree removal expressly authorized by the Director of Planning and Community Development, the
permittee shall not remove existing trees within two hundred (200) feet of the pole and equipment
pad. A special use permit amendment shall be required for any future tree removal within the two
hundred (200) foot buffer, after the installation of the subject facility.
8. The applicant shall submit a revised set of site drawings to the Department of Planning and
Community Development. Prior to the issuance of a building permit for construction of the facility,
the Director of Planning with assistance from Planning staff shall review the revised plans to
ensure that all appropriate conditions of the special use permit have been addressed in the final
revisions of the construction plans.
9. A tree planting plan containing native species, which could include white pine, short leaf southern
pine, and others, shall be developed within the two hundred (200) foot buffer. The purpose of
these plantings shall be to abate the visibility of the tower by surrounding it with screening
vegetation. It is expected that these plantings will accomplish the screening effect as soon as
possible by selection of rapid growth species consistent with their also being a native species,
and shall also be subject to approved by the Director of Planning and Community Development.
10. The facility shall be disassembled and removed from the site within ninety (90) days of the date
its use for wireless telecommunications purposes is discontinued If the Zoning Administrator
determines at any time that surety is required to guarantee that the facility will be removed as
required, the permittee shall furnish to the Zoning Administrator a certified check, a bond with
surety satisfactory to the County, or a letter of credit satisfactory to the County, in an amount
sufficient for, and conditioned upon, the removal of the facility. The type of surety guarantee shall
be to the satisfaction of the Zoning Administrator and the County Attorney.
In the event that the use, structure or activity for which this special use permit is issued shall not be
commenced within eighteen (18) months after the issuance of such permit, the same shall be deemed
abandoned and the authority granted thereunder shall thereupon terminate. For purposes of this section,
the term "commenced" shall be construed to include the commencement of construction of any structure
necessary to the use of such permit within two (2) years from the date of the issuance thereof which is
thereafter completed within one (1) year.

to contact me.
