The purposes for a pre -application meeting are to: (i) provide the applicant and the county a common understanding of the proposed project; (ii) inform the applicant about the proposed project's consistency with the comprehensive plan, other relevant policies, and county regulations, (iii) broadly identify the planning, zoning and other issues raised by the application that need to be addressed by the applicant; (iv) inform the applicant about the applicable procedure; and (v) allow the director to identify the information the applicant must submit with the application, including the supplemental information delineated in subsection (c). Receiving the relevant supplemental information will allow the application to be comprehensively and efficiently reviewed (i) Common understanding of the proposed project • The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from R-1 to R-15 to allow for the construction of 24 apartment units. (H) Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan • The Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan designates the property as Urban Density Residential (orange) which calls for residential uses at a density of 6-34 units per acre and a maximum building height of 1-3 stories with additional height where appropriate. • In addition to conformity with the Land Use recommendations of the Master Plan staff will be reviewing your applications for consistency with the principles of the Neighborhood Model. • With the overall design of the site we would encourage you to create a design that is in keeping with the principles for pedestrian access, interconnected streets and transportation networks, buildings and spaces of human scale, and relegated parking. ■ The Comprehensive Plan also contains an Affordable Housing Polite +i which is an important goal for the County. Although the County can no longer accept proffers for affordable housing, the policy is still in place and can be addressed through other methods. (iii) Broadly identify the planning, zoning or other issues raised by the application to be addressed. • Staff recommends the applicant consider a Planned Residential District (PRD) rather than a conventional zoning district. Some advantages of a PRD zoning include the following: o The PRD zoning district will allow you to demonstrate compliance with Neighborhood Model guidelines on the application plan. o The PRD will allow for more flexibility in design and density (see attached zoning comments for more information on this). o The PRD can allow you to address Comprehensive Plan goals such as affordable housing by showing locations of affordable housing on the application plan. Provisions for addressing impacts to schools, transportation infrastructure, emergency services and parks should be provided for with the rezoning. Staff will provide information on projected capacity needs for schools based upon review of the rezoning request. + A traffic impact analysis should be provided to demonstrate how traffic impacts will be mitigated with this request. • The applicant should determine if turn lanes on Avon Street are adequate for the proposed development by calculating projected traffic counts. Work with VDOT staff to determine traffic count data from the Avinity development. • A second access point should be provided for Fire/Rescue vehicles as the proposed entrance does not meet turn radius requirements for vehicles exiting the site. • Meeting fire flow minimums may be an issue due to low water pressure in this area. Work with Fire/Rescue staff to calculate the required pressure. Work with ACSA staff to schedule a flow report for the existing hydrant. • The property is in the Entrance Corridor (EC) and will need to meet EC guidelines. Contact Margaret Maliszewski with questions regarding the EC guidelines and the ARB review process. (iv) Applicable procedures • An ZMA Application and fee are required for the proposed residential use. Community Meeting: o The applicant is required by ordinance to undertake a community meeting process as part of the review of the SP requests. See attached Community Meeting Guidelines for more information. o The applicant should work with the Sth & Avon Community Advisory Committee to use their monthly meeting as the Community Meeting for this project. o Staff will work with you to generate a list of adjacent property owners that should be notified about the Community Meeting. o Please keep staff informed of the community meeting location and time. Staff will attend the meeting to answer questions, but the applicant is responsible for facilitating the discussion. (v) Identify the information the applicant must submit with the application, including the supplemental information. • ZMA application(s) and $2,688.00 fee. • The application should include the appropriate signature of the owner, the owner's agent, or a contract purchaser (see separate handout regarding authorized signatories). Include the attached ZMA checklist with your application submittal. It will need to be the copy of the checklist that has been completed by staff and filled out by you indicating you have provided the necessary items. Staff has provided checklists for both the conventional zoning district and planned district. • Provide additional items (as listed in the ZMA checklist), including: b. The applicant is expected to provide an overview of the proposal and answer questions about the proposed project. Location maps, concept plans are to be provided. Additional narratives, a code of development, or other information may also be provided. c. Staff is to provide general information on applicable County policies and the review process but is not expected to provide comments about the proposal itself, because review of the project will have just begun. d. Various formats for the meeting are acceptable such as an open house, a presentation at a meeting with a Q & A period or other suitable format. 9. Meeting follow-up a. Staff will document issues identified in the meeting and provide this information to the applicant and to the PC and BOS in the staff report, as appropriate. b. The applicant is not required to revise his/her proposed project based on public questions and comments, but, may, at their own discretion, make changes before an initial application or with a resubmittal. 10. Questions concerning community meetings a. Questions concerning times, dates, and locations of upcoming CAC meetings should be referred to Emily Kilroy, Community Engagement Specialist at 434-296-5842 ext. 3422 or ekilroyCoDalbemarle.org. b. Other questions concerning procedures for community meetings should be referred to the planner who is coordinating the review of the project. Page 3 of 3 Rev. May 10, 2016 County of Albemarle Department of Community Development Memorandum To: Rachel Falkenstein, Senior Planner From: Amelia McCulley, Zoning Administrator Date: November 29, 2016 Subject: 2511 Avinity Rezoning Mandatory Preapplication Conference — Zoning Comments i attended this preapplication conference on November 14t' and have the following comments: 1. Please be certain that any proposal for adding adjacent property to TM 90 Parcel 35L will result in sufficient acreage for the residual parcel. For example, a boundary line adjustment to shift acreage from TM 90 Parcel 35A is not possible under the current zoning of that parcel because it currently is already below the minimum lot size for that (R1) zoning district. Another approach is a more comprehensive rezoning that also incorporates adjoining properties. Not only does that allow for additional acreage for the density to work out but it also allows for additional area to address things such as setbacks, access roads and amenities. 2. The applicant may wish to consider pursuing a rezoning to Planned Residential Development rather than a conventional district such as R15. Benefits of PRD zoning include: a) the density issue that would require additional land to achieve the unit count becomes a non -issue; and b) density bonuses such as that proposed with affordable housing are not necessary. PRD still allows you to include affordable housing but without the zoning ordinance restrictions. As with other rezonings, it will be reviewed for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. While this is not at the site plan stage, please consider setbacks for the conceptual drawings. It appears that this is infill. By my measurement, the closest setback of an existing structure within 500 feet in each direction is 35 feet (§18-4.19). Please feel free to double-check my measurement. If correct, 35 feet is the minimum setback and there is no maximum setback. Carports constitute a structure from which a setback is required. It appears that structure will not meet the setback required from the driveway easement to the south. This setback would be a side setback unless the driveway easement becomes a road frontage that also required a front setback. Many setbacks may be reduced with a special exception. This is an action that can be packaged to be concurrent with the rezoning consideration. Please see the relevant criteria and consider your options. 4. Please also be aware of the stepback requirements for floors above 40 feet or the 3'd story, whichever is less (§18-4.19). 5. Please contact Ron White, Chief of Housing, to discuss the procedure regarding the providing of affordable rental units. Because you are relying on this density bonus, it will be helpful to have that input prior to submitting the rezoning. 6. Please consider applicable parking requirements as they relate to the proposed plan. If rental units are 2 bedrooms or more, they require 2 parking spaces per unit. Absent transportation demand (TDM) tools to reduce parking requirements which may apply here (§18-4.12.12), 48 spaces are required. The fact that this property may be served by public transit can reduce the parking requirement under TDM. 0i, COUNTY OF ALBEN ABLE Department of Community Development 401 McIntire Road, North Wing Charlottesville, Virginia 22902-4596 Phone 434 296-5832 Fax 434 9724126 Memorandum To: James Moss Justin Shimp From: Rachel Falkenstein Date: 12/1/2016 Subject: TMP 90-351-James Moss Rezoning Pre -Application Meeting Date: 11/14/2016 The following are County staff comments regarding the above noted pre -application meeting.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT SHIMPCIVIL ENGINEERING LAND PLANNING December 12, 2016 Mr. Adam Moore, P.E. Virginia Department of Transportation Regarding: Avon Street Ext. Multi -Family Left- Turn Warrant Analysis Mr. Moore, Please find enclosed a left -turn warrant analysis for the addition of Avon Street Extended Multi -Family at Avinity Drive. Our conclusions are based off of the previous study by Ramey Kemp & Associates, Inc. Because the increase in traffic was for this development is minimal, we did not see the need to run the Synchro analysis performed with the prior study. The following items are included with this report: • Warrant Analysis Exhibit • OTISS Trip Generation Reports • ITE Trip Generation Summary • Level -of -Service Summary from Ramey Kemp & Associates Our analysis shows that no expansion of the left turn lane is warranted for this project.

The purposes for a pre -application meeting are to: (i) provide the applicant and the county a common understanding of the proposed project; (ii) inform the applicant about the proposed project's consistency with the comprehensive plan, other relevant policies, and county regulations; (iii) broadly identify the planning, zoning and other issues raised by the application that need to be addressed by the applicant; (iv) inform the applicant about the applicable procedure; and (v) allow the director to identify the information the applicant must submit with the application, including the supplemental information delineated in subsection (c). Receiving the relevant supplemental information will allow the application to be comprehensively and efficiently reviewed (i) Common understanding of the proposed project • The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from R-1 to R-15 to allow for the construction of 24 apartment units. (li) Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan • The Southern and Western Urban Neighborhoods Master Plan designates the property as Urban Density Residential (orange) which calls for residential uses at a density of 6-34 units per acre and a maximum building height of 1-3 stories with additional height where appropriate. • In addition to conformity with the Land Use recommendations of the Master Plan staff will be reviewing your applications for consistency with the principles of the Neighborhood Model. • With the overall design of the site we would encourage you to create a design that is in keeping with the principles for pedestrian access, interconnected streets and transportation networks, buildings and spaces of human scale, and relegated parking, • The Comprehensive Plan also contains an Affordable Housing Policy which is an important goal for the County. Although the County can no longer accept proffers for affordable housing, the policy is still in place and can be addressed through other methods. OR) Broadly identify the planning, zoning or other issues raised by the application to be addressed • Staff recommends the applicant consider a Planned Residential District (PRD) rather than a conventional zoning district. Some advantages of a PRD zoning include the following: o The PRD zoning district will allow you to demonstrate compliance with Neighborhood Model guidelines on the application plan. o The PRD will allow for more flexibility in design and density (see attached zoning comments for more information on this). o The PRD can allow you to address Comprehensive Plan goals such as affordable housing by showing locations of affordable housing on the application plan. • Provisions for addressing impacts to schools, transportation infrastructure, emergency services and parks should be provided for with the rezoning. • Staff will provide information on projected capacity needs for schools based upon review of the rezoning request. • A traffic impact analysis should be provided to demonstrate how traffic impacts will be mitigated with this request. • The applicant should determine if turn lanes on Avon Street are adequate for the proposed development by calculating projected traffic counts. Work with VDOT staff to determine traffic count data from the Avinity development. • A second access point should be provided for Fire/Rescue vehicles as the proposed entrance does not meet turn radius requirements for vehicles exiting the site. • Meeting fire flow minimums maybe an issue due to low water pressure in this area. Work with Fire/Rescue staff to calculate the required pressure. Work with ACSA staff to schedule a flow report for the existing hydrant. • The property is in the Entrance Corridor (EC) and will need to meet EC guidelines. Contact Margaret Maliszewski with questions regarding the EC guidelines and the ARB review process. pv) Applicable procedures • An ZMA Application and fee are required for the proposed residential use. Community Meeting: o The applicant is required by ordinance to undertake a community meeting process as part of the review of the SP requests. See attached Community Meeting Guidelines for more information. o The applicant should work with the Sth & Avon Community Advisory Committee to use their monthly meeting as the Community Meeting for this project. o Staff will work with you to generate a list of adjacent property owners that should be notified about the Community Meeting. o Please keep staff informed of the community meeting location and time. Staff will attend the meeting to answer questions, but the applicant is responsible for facilitating the discussion. (v) identify the information the applicant must submit with the application, including the supplemental Information. • ZMA application(s) and $2,688.00 fee. The application should include the appropriate signature of the owner, the owner's agent, or a contract purchaser (see separate handout regarding authorized signatories). • Include the attached ZMA checklist with your application submittal. It will need to be the copy of the checklist that has been completed by staff and filled out by you indicating you have provided the necessary items. Staff has provided checklists for both the conventional zoning district and planned district. • Provide additional items (as listed in the ZMA checklist), including: 2 Area / Propo5ed Den5lty Summary: 5cluare Ft.
