RE: River’s Edge Compliance with Comprehensive Plan Application Narrative
The applicant would like to rezone TMP 32-5A, 32-5A1, 32-22K1 from Rural Areas to allow for approximately 145
multi-family units and approximately 33,250 SF of commercial space. These parcels are located within the Hollymead
Community, a designated growth area, in Albemarle County. The Development Areas chapter of the Comprehensive
Plan, adopted 2015, outlines the expectation for communities “to be able to operate independently. Like the urban
neighborhoods, communities should have a mixture of housing types and be supported by transportation systems…”
(Alb Co. Comp Plan 8.4). The Hollymead Community is home to the Forest Lakes residential neighborhood, the
Charlottesville Albemarle Airport, and the UVA Research Park. The Hollymead Community is well on its way to
operating independently, as desired by the Comprehensive Plan but the community currently lacks an ample mixture
of housing types to accommodate the anticipated growth from employment centers in the area. A mixture of housing
types facilitates the opportunity for a community of varying income levels by offering housing options at different price
points.
Subject Parcels Overview:
Parcel Acreage Zoning District Zoning Overlays
32-5A 4.81 Rural Areas Entrance Corridors, Airport Impact, Steep Slopes,
32-5A1 27.71 Rural Areas Entrance Corridors, Airport Impact, Steep Slopes
32-22K1 5.22 Rural Areas Entrance Corridors, Airport Impact, Steep Slopes
Project Proposal:
This project proposal is for a mixed-use development with approximately 145 multi-family residential units and
commercial space on TMP 32-5A, 32-5A1, and 32-22K1. If there is the desire by either applicant or the County for
more residential space within the development, the proposed commercial space could be repurposed as multi -family
residential units.
The goal of this project is to create housing opportunities in a desirable location in close proximity to employment
centers. The multi-family component will diversify the housing stock available in the Hollymead Community.
Site Overview and Context:
TMP 32-5A and 32-5A1 are primarily wooded and are currently used for low-density residential purposes. Parcel 32-
22K1 is primarily wooded and is vacant. Parcel 32-5A1 borders the National Ground Intelligence Center. Parcels 32-
5A and 32-5A1 border several commercial properties that are directly adjacent to Route 29. These properties include
the Clayton Homes site and Silverstar Outfitters, an automotive accessories dealership. TMP 33-15, located to the
east of the subject parcels, is vacant land in the RA zoning district; the parcel is partially designated as neighborhood
model density in the Comprehensive Plan. See attached conceptual plan package for a context map.
The subject parcels are located in close proximity to several employment centers namely, the UVA Research Park,
the National Ground Intelligence Center, and the Charlottesville Albemarle Airport. The UVA Research Park has a
2
Master Plan, which includes 3.7 million square-feet of mixed-use development, for its 562 acres. The UVA
Foundation recognizes the UVA Research Park as “a technologically advanced interactive community where
businesses, researchers, faculty, families, and members of the community can come together to work and socialize”
(UVA Research Park). As a hub for corporate activity, the research park will provide the space necessary for job
growth. The subject parcels are located in close proximity to the UVA Research Park and could provide a convenient
housing opportunity for those working at the research park. A park map of current and anticipated growth at the UVA
Research Park is provided below to provide a visual of the anticipated corporate growth slated for the area.

Just north of the property is the National Ground Intelligence Center; the number of employees at NGIC is classified,
but the center is perceived to be a significant employer in Central Virginia. Similar to employees of the UVA Research
Park, the development will appeal to employees at NGIC looking for a shorter commute. The proposed project will
remain consistent with existing development patterns in the northern development areas in the sense that, the
development will be relatively compact and internally focused. This pattern of development differs from the southern
development areas along Route 29 which are traditionally suburban in character.
Neighborhood Model principles like human scale development and pedestrian connections will be applied in the
development to create a compact, livable, walkable residential community with convenient access to commercial
businesses via a pedestrian path.
Comprehensive Plan Land Use Designation
The comprehensive plan identifies the developable area of 32-5A and 32-5A1 as neighborhood density residential.
The developable area of parcel 32-22K1 is designated as urban density residential. Portions of both properties are
designated as open-space for environmental conservation purposes.

(GIS Estimate)
Parcel 5A 4.81 RA Neighborhood Density (3-6) 1.9 Acre
Parcel 5A-1 27.71 RA Neighborhood Density (3-6) 12.8 Acre
Parcel 22K1 5.22 RA Urban
Density (6.01-34)
2.62 Acre
TOTAL: 37.74
It is intended for the subject properties to be developed holistically and as a master-planned development. As such
development, the recommended density for the individual parcels should be considered in the aggregate and should
be applicable to the entirety of the development. For example at a recommended residential density of 3-6 DUA,
parcels 5A and 5A-1 could accommodate 82 units because the developable area of the parcels totals 13.7 acres
(13.7 acres x 6 DUA = 82.2 units). Parcel 22K1 could accommodate 89 units (2.62 acres x 34 DUA = 89.08).
Considered holistically, the subject parcels could accommodate 171 units in compliance with the Comprehensive
Plan residential density designations.
On greenfield sites, the Comprehensive Plan encourages developers to build at the higher end of the density range,
provided that development will be in keeping with design recommendations in the Neighborhood M odel (Alb Co
Comp Plan 8.3). Much of the subject parcels have been slated for protection for environmental purposes. In order to
respect the environmental features of the site while meeting a residential density for the site that is appropriate for the
area and cognizant of future growth, the site should be considered holistically in terms of density to promote compact
development and efficient use of land in the County’s designated development areas.
4
Questions for Planning Commission:
Would applying the density from an area designated urban density to an area designated residential density
be found in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan if the plan were to be rezoned and developed as a
master planned development?
If the property were to be rezoned to Neighborhood Model District, would pedestrian connections connecting
the portion of development adjacent to Rt 29 (TMP 32-22K1) and the portion of development further
northeast (TMP 32-5A and 32-5A1) sufficiently satisfy connectivity and neighborhood model principles as
identified in the Comprehensive Plan?
Would neighborhood scale commercial use (i.e. veterinarian office, barber shop, yoga studio, etc.) in an
area designated as urban density residential be found in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan?
