"THE ALBEMARLE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION IS CONCERNED WITH THE CONFUSION EXISTING
RELATIVE TO THE AMENDMENT PROCESS OF ANY ZONING ORDINANCE THAT MAY BE ADOPTED UNDER
THE SPECIAL LEGISLATION FOR THIS COUNTY. SINCE THE COMMISSION HAS BEGUN PREPARATION
OF THE PROPOSED ZONING ORDINANCE, IT IS FELT THAT THE AMENDMENT PROCESS SHOULD BE
GIVEN SERIOUS CONSIDERATION.
~T HAS BEEN INDICATED BY THE COMMISSION DURING THEIR DISCUSSION WITH THE CITIZENS
THAT IF A ZONING ORDINANCE IS APPROVED IN A REFERENDUM~ THE SPECIAL LEGISLATION
APPLYING TO ALBEMARLE WILL HAVE SERVED THE ORIGINAL PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT WAS DRAWN.
THEREFORE, IF THE CITIZENS DESIRE~ THE MEMBERS IN THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY FROM THIS

ANY AMENDMENTS NECESSARY TO BE MADE.
THE NECESSITY FOR A REFERENDUM ON FUTURE AMENDMENTS HAS CAUSED CONCERN TO MANY
CITIZENS. THE COMMISSION HAS MADE EVERY EFFORT TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST WITH THE
CITIZENS OF THE COUNTY DURING THE DISCUSSION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING PROGRAM AND~
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES~ DOES THE COMMISSION DESIRE TO MISLEAD THE CITIZENS IN ANY
WAY. IN ORDER THAT THE CITIZENS WILL HAVE COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT TO EXPECT AND
CAN CAST THEIR VOTES ACCORDINGLY~ IT IS REQUESTED THAT THE ~OARD OF COUNTY SUPER-
VISO~ DETERMINE IF THE REPRESENTATIVES IN THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY WILL INTRODUCE AND
SUPPORT LEGISLATION TO ALLOW AMENDMENTS TO ANY ZONING ORDINANCE THAT MAY BE ADOPTED
BY A REFERENDUM TO BE MADE BY THE GOVERNING BODY~ AS VIRGINIA LAW PROVIDES IN ALL
OTHER COUNTIES AND CITIES.
THE COMMISSION HAS'NO OBJECTION TO SUBMITTING THE ~UESTION OF A ZONING ORDINANCE TO
A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE~ BUT IT DOES FEEL THAT THE METHOD OF AMENDING ANY SUCH ORDINANCE
AFTER ADOPTION SHOULD BE KNOWN BY THE CITIZENS IN ORDER THAT THEY MAY VOTE INTELLI-
GENTLY. THEREFORE~ IT IS REQUESTED THAT THE COUNTY REPRESENTATIVES MAKE KNOWN TO
THE PEOPLE THEIR INTENTIONS ON PLACING THE AMENDMENT PROCEDURE IN THE HANDS OF THE
GOVERNING BODY WHERE IT BELONGS UNDER VIRGINIA LAW~ IF AND WHEN A ZONING ORDINANCE
IS ADOPTED BY THE PEOPLE.~
