1999-02-17February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meeting) (Page 1) A regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors of Albemarle County, Virginia, was held on February 17, 1999, at 7:00 p.m., Room 241, County Office Building, Mclntire Road, Charlottesville, Virginia. PRESENT: Mr. David P. Bowerman, Ms. Charlotte Y. Humphris, Mr. Walter F. Perkins, and Ms. Sally H. Thomas. ABSENT: Mr. Charles S. Martin and Mr. Forrest R. Marshall, Jr. OFFICERS PRESENT: County Executive, Mr. Robert W. Tucker, Jr.; County Attorney, Mr. Larry W. Davis; and Chief of Community Development, Mr. David Benish. Agenda Item No. 1. The meeting was called to order at 7:02 p.m., by the Vice-Chairman, Ms. Thomas. Agenda Item No. 2. Pledge of Allegiance. Agenda Item No. 3. Moment of Silence. Agenda Item No. 4. Other Matters Not Listed on the Agenda from the Public. Dr. Roger Schweickert, who lives on Proffit Road, expressed concern about the Chesterfield Subdivision. He said the permit had expired before construction actually began. In addition, originally the plan had been to build only ten houses, but after additional water rights were purchased later, the total of proposed homes increased to 29. He said there is also a movement underway to allow an additional 135 lots to be accessed from a lot near the community center. He added that he is concerned about the effect of the additional construction on the deer population. Mr. Benish said the development in question is actually tied to the Springridge Subdivision, which is accessed through the Hollymead Subdivision, not from Proffit Road. Dr. Schweickert said the Forest Lakes homeowners association voted in opposition to the proposed subdivision. Mr. Tucker said the vote by the homeowners association is not scheduled to be taken until March 4, 1999. Dr. Schweickert said Plan B, which is to be used if Forest Lakes residents reject the original plan, is to have access from Proffit Road. Mr. Tucker said Planning staff will respond to Dr. Schweickert's concerns. Agenda Item No. 5. Consent Agenda. Motion was offered by Mr. Bowerman, seconded by Ms. Humphris, to approve items 5.1 through 5.3, and to accept the remaining items as information. Roll was called and the motion carried by the follOwing recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Ms. Humphris, Mr. Perkins, Ms. Thomas, and Mr. Bowerman. None. Mr. Marshall and Mr. Martin. Item No. 5.1. SP-98-61. Triton Communications (deferred from February 10, 1999). Ms. Humphris mentioned that she was not present for the public hearing on this item, and asked if she should abstain from voting on this item when voting on the consent agenda. Mr. Davis said Ms. Humphris would not be disqualified from voting on the item if she is familiar with the material provided. Mr. Benish summarized the staff report, which is on file in the Clerk's office and a permanent part of the record. He then distributed photos, which are also filed in the Clerk's office. He said if the Board takes action on the consent agenda, they should also take action on a reduction of the setback require- ments in the Zoning Ordinance as well. The Ordinance requires towers to be set back from adjacent properties a distance equal to the height of the tower. One photograph showed the proposed type of structure, which would be from four to six feet in height. Mr. Davis pointed out that, since the tower would be subject to Architectural Review Board approval, the actual structure might not look exactly like the one shown. Mr. Benish said the minimum height possible for the new tower is five feet from the top of the existing tower. The proposed tower would be ten feet lower than the 147 feet originally requested. The company cannot go lower, because there must be adequate separation between the ground wires. He added that Virginia Power is unwilling to allow the new tower to be located below the top of the existing tower. Staff's recommendation is to exempt the tower from setback requirements. The County's policy has been to encourage the use of existing structures, so the benefit would outweigh generally accepted setbacks. Mr. Benish said there is no perceived additional danger associated with loCating the pole within the current lattice structure. February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meetiri~) (Page 2) 09032:9 By the above shown vote, the Board approved SP-98-61 with six conditions, recommended by staff, and to include a reduction in the setback, in accordance with the provisions of § 4.10.3.1 of the Zoning Ordinance. Conditions are as follow: The monopole, supporting cables, and antennas shall be the same color as the existing power line tower; The tower shall be limited to a total of nine (9) panel antenna at a maximum height of 137.5 feet above ground; Attachment to the power line tower shall be in general accord with he plan titled "Vepco Tower #20~28 CV-I-306A" attached to the staff report and initialed SET 11/10/98, which has been modified to reflect a change in antenna mounting height in accordance with Condition #2 above; The permittee shall submit a report to the Zoning Administrator once per year, by not later than July 1 of that year. The report shall identify each user of the tower and shall identify each user that is a wireless telecommunications service provider; The antenna on the tower shall be disassembled and removed from the site within ninety (90) days of the date their use for wireless telecommunications purposes is discontinued; and 6. The existing lattice tower shall not be fenced. Item No. 5.2. Set public hearing for March 17, 1999, for public hearing to grant gas line ease- ment. The executive summary states that the City of Charlottesville has requested that the County grant it an easement to enable the placement of gas transmission lines across two parcels of property jointly owned by the City and County in the Ivy Creek Natural Area. These lines are to be placed alongside existing lines, and the easements will follow the paths of existing City-owned gas lines. The Virginia Code requires the County to hold a public hearing prior to authorizing the granting of an easement. Staff recommends the Board authorize a public hearing to be advertised for March 17, 1999. By the above shown vote, the Board set the public hearing to grant a gas line easement for March 17, 1999. Item No. 5.3. Proclamation recognizing the week of February 22 - February 26, 1999, as Eligibility Worker Appreciation Week. By the above shown vote, the Board adopted the following proclamation, which was read by Ms. Thomas: ELIGIBILITY WORKER APPRECIATION WEEK WHEREAS, WHEREAS, Virginia's landmark welfare reform legislation has significantly impacted the services provided by our local eligibility workers, calling upon them to creatively promote individual self-sufficiency and personal responsibility; and Albemarle County continues to experience unprecedented implementation of complex policies and procedures in afl major benefit programs; and WHEREAS, Albemarle County's 21 eligibility workers have been at the forefront of public efforts' to meet that need, steadily maintaining a high rate of application processing to ensure that those qualified for social services receive them; and WHEREAS, approximately 1017 children are served monthly through the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, Medicaid and Food Stamp Programs, depending on the dedication and commitment of eligibility workers who handle their cases in an accurate and timely manner; and WHEREAS, our eligibility workers are continually faced with reconciling an environment of rapidly changing policies, procedures, and technological advances with quality control require- merits; February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meeting) (Page 3) .OOOG O NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that I, Charles S. Martin, Chairman, on behalf of the Albemarle Board of County Supervi- sors, do hereby commend all eligibility workers in the County of Albemarle for a job well done and recognize the week of February 22 through February 26, 1999, as ELIGIBILITY WORKER APPRECIATION WEEK and call upon all County residents to join in acknowledging their public service and contributions on this 17th day of February, 1999. Item No. 5.4. information. Copy of Planning Commission minutes for January 26, 1999, was received for Item No. 5.5. 1998 Fourth Quarter Building Report as prepared by the Department of Planning and Community Development, was received for information. Item No. 5.6. 1998 Year End Building Report as prepared by the Department of Planning and Community Development, was received for information. Item No. 5.7. Minutes of the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail Authority Board for December 10, 1999, were received for information. Item No. 5.8. Electricity Restructuring in the Commonwealth of Virginia, as prepared by the Virginia, Maryland and Delaware Association of Electric Cooperatives, was received for information. Agenda Item No. 6. ZMA-98-17. Ashcroft Phase 6 (Sign #75). Public Hearing on a request to rezone approx 37 acs from RA to PRD. Loc on N side of 1-64 frontage read, F-179, (Hansen's Mountain Rd). TM78, P51A. Site includes area recom for Neighborhood Density Residential (3-6 du/ac) in Neighborhood 3 & area recom for RA. Rivanna Dist. (Advertised in the Daily Progress on February 1 and 8, 1999.) Mr. Benish summarized the staff report, which is on file in the Clerk's office and a permanent part of the record. Staff recommends approval of the request based on the analysis of the project for compliance with § 8.5.4 and review of the Comprehensive Plan. The Planning Commission, at its January 26, 1999 meeting, by a vote of four-to-two, recommended approval of ZMA-98-17. Ms. Humphris said she wished staff had better assembled and labeled the maps. She also said staff did a poor job of posting signs in the area; adding that there were no signs posted on Lego Drive. Mr. Davis said there had been a posting irregularity regarding the rezoning. The area had been properly for the November 10, 1998 Planning Commission meeting, and then the item was deferred. At that time, the signs were removed. On January 26, 1999, when the item was heard by the Commission, the site was not posted, but it was correctly reposted for the Board of Supervisors meeting. The Zoning Ordinance states that if the Board of Supervisors finds that the posting irregularity denied the public reasonable notice, it can defer the item until the site is adequately posted. Planning staff felt that reasonable notice has been given to the public, and Mr. Benish noted that the homeowners association was well aware of the public hearing. Ms. Humphris asked where the signs would have been postedl Mr. Benish said signs would have been posted where they would have been noticed by the public. Ms. Humphris said signs should have been posted on Lego Drive, due to the high traffic volume on that road. Mr. Bowerman said staff felt this item met the spirit of the Comprehensive Plan. They felt that, due to the unique situation on this historic property, plus other factors, this was an appropriate use. Ms. Humphris noted that one would pass two historic houses before reaching Lego Drive. Ms. Thomas said the recommended action would not fully protect the house in the rural area. Ms. Hbmphris added there is nothing to prevent the remaining 17 acres from being rezoned. Therefore, if the Board accepts the plan, it should be done in a way that will protect potentially historically designated property, by modifying the Comprehensive Plan. Ms. Humphris asked about the water situation. Mr. Benish said the development would be on the Ashcroft water system. Ms. Thomas asked the applicant for comments. Mr. Rick Beyer, representing the applicant, said the property is elevated, so water is pumped to the top of the development by the Rivanna Water and Service Authority. Residents have enjoyed February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meeting) (Page 4) horseback riding for years, so when the property went on the market, the residents formed a committee to look into purchasing the property, which could be zoned up to R-6. Although residents want to protect the property values in the Ashcroft Subdivision, the neighborhood association could not get a consensus to buy the farm. If he purchases the farm, Mr. Beyer said he hopes to leave 17 acres to act as a bumper where horses can pasture. The upper portion of the development is 50 to 60 percent wooded, so most houses would be hidden in the woods. He said the neighborhood association supports this action. Mr. Bowerman commended Mr. Beyer for preserving trees during construction, which has resulted in a benign visual aspect, considering the size of the subdivision. Mr. Beyer said residents want to have good views, while leaving as many trees as possible. He hopes to maintain control of the colors houses can be painted, as well as the styles of lights that will be permitted, in an attempt to make them less visible. Ms. Humphris asked where horses would be pastured, if the subdivision is approved. Pointing to the map to show the proposed area, Mr. Beyer said he hopes to build the homes above the power line for now. He may later re-petition to give up some of the upper lots and move them to the lower area, in order to end up with more pasture land. Ms. Thomas opened the public hearing. With no one rising to speak, Ms. Thomas then closed the public hearing. Mr. Perkins asked if the development would be served by private septic systems. Mr. Beyer replied, "Yes." Ms. Humphris said she was concerned about the future of the 17-acre lot, but felt this was the best thing the Board could do at this time. Mr. Bowerman said it is important to acknowledge the neighborhood association's role and participation in this matter. Ms. Thomas said she was worried any time a rezoning precedes amending the Comprehensive Plan. This is a small item, but it could set a dangerous precedent. She suggested that, if the Board approves the request, the motion should include the factors that staff found to be favorable. Motion was offered by Mr. Bowerman, seconded by Ms. Humphris, to approve ZMA-98-17, to include specific points made by staff as to justifications for the recommendation. Roll was called and the motion carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Ms. Humphris, Mr. Perkins, Ms. Thomas, and Mr. Bowerman. None. Mr. Marshall and Mr. Martin. Staff justification includes the following statements: The distribution of lots as proposed by the applicant essentially allows the lots to become part of and appear to be a part of the existing Ashcroft development; The lot sizes proposed for the smaller lots are consistent with the adjacent lot sizes in Ashcroft. The single 17 acre parcel proposed south of the power line is consistent with the lot sizes south of the power line and east of Lego Drive; Retention of a single large parcel south of the power line will tend to have less of an impact on a Locust Shade which has been surveyed and noted as potentially register eligible; Retention of a Rural Area at the intersection, as opposed to a subdivision at the intersec- tion on Hansen's Mountain Road and Lego Drive will help to preserve the rural character of the area including the entrance to Ashcroft and areas on Hansen's Mountain Road east of Lego Drive; If the area south of the power line were to be developed in accordance with the existing Comprehensive Plan (3 to 6 dwelling units per acre) it would likely be difficult to justify retention of a Rural Area between such a development and the existing Ashcroft develop- ment; and ¸6. The area south of the power line can be reasonably used for agriculture based on its size and an analysis of the soils on the property. Mr. Perkins offered the motion, seconded by Ms. Humphris, to adopt a resolution of intent to amend the Comprehensive Plan to modif~ the Development Area boundary for Urban Area neighborhood 3 to reflect the development plan as approved in the zoning action for ZMA-98-17, Ashcroft Phase 6 (PRD). Roll was called and the motion carried by the following recorded vote: February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meeting) (Page 5) AYES: Ms. Humphris, Mr. Perkins, Ms. Thomas, and Mr. Bowerman. NAYS: None. ABSENT: Mr. Marshall and Mr. Martin. The resolution of intent is as follows: RESOLUTION OF INTENT BE IT RESOLVED for purposes of public necessity, convenience, general welfare, and good zoning practice, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors hereby adopts a resolution of intent to amend the Comprehensive Plan, Land Use Plan to modify the Development Area boundary for Urban Area Neighborhood 3 to reflect the development plan as approved in the zoning action for ZMA-98-17, Ashcroft Phase 6 PRD FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the Planning Commission is requested to hold a public hearing on this resolution of intent, and to return its recommendations to this Board at the earliest possible date. Agenda Item No. 7. Public Hearing on FY 1999/2000-FY 2003/2004 Capital Improvements Program. (Advertised in the Daily Progress on February 14 and 16, 1999.) Mr. Tucker summarized the Capital Improvement Program. At the February 3, 1999 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) work session, the Board approved adding three projects to the proposed FY 1999/2000 - FY 2003/2004 ClP: the juvenile courthouse at $15.0 million, the public safety facility at $4.63 million and the urban gymnasium at $1.53 million. Although the specifics of the bond referendum, which included projects, financing, time frame, etc., will come back to the Board at a later time for review and approval, the proposed FY 1999/2000 - FY 2003/2004 ClP includes $21.13 million in offsetting revenues from an intended bond referendum in FY 2001. ' Staff provided spread sheets for the public hearing. The first one listed all the proposed projects for General Government, the Tourism and Stormwater Funds and the School CIP Fund. Changes from the recommended ClP were highlighted. A Piedmont Virginia Community College (PVCC) project had been added for $37,236, which represented the County's required contribution to the renovation of PVCC's main academic building. This request was submitted along with PVCC's operating budget request, and was funded with additional operating revenues transferred to the ClP. The second spreadsheet showed the total available revenues broken down into the four major funds. The Board's FY 1999/2000 - FY 2003/2004 CIP totaled $82.162 million dollars; $44.695 million in School CIP fund projects and $36.911 million in General Government projects. Mr. Tucker provided a handout that will be distributed to the public, which listed all general government and school division projects, their costs, and the years in which the projects will be com- Mr. Tucker advised the Board this information was provided for the public hearing and did not require any action at this time. Final approval of the FY 1999/2000 - FY 2003/2004 CIP and adoption of the FY 1999/2000 C IP budget is scheduled for April 14, 1999, in conjunction with approval of the FY 1999/2000 Operating Budget. Ms. White said a review of the General Government Fund showed an increase due to the Juvenile Courthouse in FY 2002 and FY 2003, and the Urban Gym in FY 2003 and FY 2004. Within General Government - Administration/Courts, the largest expense is $15.0 for the Juvenile Courthouse, for a total of $19.379 million. The major Public Safety project is the public safety facility, at $4.63 million, for a total of $9.521 million. The largest expense under Highway and Transportation projects is revenue sharing/traffic calming, at $2.2 million, for a total of $2.841 million. The only major Library project is upgrading computers. Major Parks and Recreation projects include athletic field development at $759,000 million, the Crozet Park Fields at $0.49 million, the Ivy Landfill Recreation area at $0.30 million, the Southern Albemarle Park at $0.20 million, and the urban area gym at $1.53 million. Ms. White also noted a new project, PVCC Facility Renovation, at $37,000, previously described by Mr. Tucker. Ms. Thomas asked if this provided the County leverage on controlling the lights at PVCC. Ms. White replied, "No." Ms. White then summarized how the $36.91 million would be funded. The General Fund transfer totals $12.75 million, borrowed funds total $22.59 million, including $21.0 million for the Courthouse, Public Safety Facility, Urban Gym, $1.5 million for the Juvenile Detention Facility, and $0.23 for Courthouse maintenance funds. ' February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meeting) (Page 6) 000383 Under Tourism Fund projects, $0.44 million has been allocated out of the Tourism Fund for the Ivy Road bike lanes at $0.23 million, the Rivanna Greenway at $0.150 million, and river access at $0.064 million. Stormwater projects include a master drainage program at $0.06 million and drainage/erosion at $0.50 million, for a total of $0.11 million. The County was able to fund the $44.69 million in projects requested by the School Board by using the General Government Transfer to fund additional debt service on the additional projects. The School Fund summary showed that almost $41.0 is in VPSA Bonds, $1.8 million in fund balance/interest, and $2.0 million from State Construction Funds. Under School Facilities, the Burley Library totals $6.8 million, Northern Elementary School totals $10.81 million, and the Southern Elementary School totals $8.93 million, with proposed new/expanded school facilities totaling $32.74 million. School Renovation Projects total $2.46 million, and do not include any expansion of space. There is no shortfall in Miscellaneous School Projects, based on the transfer of local revenues from maintenance/replacement to debt service. Ms. White said the County's Debt Service, as it relates to the General Fund, has risen from 8.8 percent in FY 2000 to 10.5 percent in FY 2003, and then coming back down to 10.4 percent in FY 2004. Therefore, debt service is initially slightly above the target level. Mr. Bowerman asked whether the County was getting the best use for its money for the urban gym. He asked if the gym could be expanded so that it can be used by more people by providing more half courts, without spending additional money. Mr. Tucker said Mr. Mullaney, Director of Parks and Recreation, hopes to have a facility that will address the needs that exist now, as well as projected needs. Staff has not yet gotten to the design stage. Ms. Thomas suggested staff consider putting a "bubble" over the facility. Mr. Perkins asked that staff consider purchasing a prefabricated building. Mr. Tucker said staff will eventually go out on bid to get cost benefit information. With no further comments from the Board, Ms. Thomas opened the public hearing. Sheriff Terry Hawkins said the Juvenile Court facilities are woefully inadequate, and the County needs improved facilities for all courts. The current situation is a security nightmare, as is traffic congestion. He said he has traveled all over the country, and most complexes are combined into one single location, which includes Police, Sheriff, courts, clerks, etc., consolidating services and manpower. He hopes that staff will consider this approach as plans are developed. Sheriff Hawkins said he examined a couple of locations, including one across from the Monticello High School, which would be close to the Security Complex. He noted that other locations exist too; one at the old Blue Ridge Hospital location, and one on Fifth Street, near the old M.C. Thomas warehouse. Mr. Bowerman asked who is examining the issues Sheriff Hawkins raised. Mr. Tucker responded that a committee of City and County staff, including the Commonwealths Attorneys, are examining the issues. Because of the costs involved, they are having difficulty resolving issues.. Mr. Davis said that under State law, a Juvenile Court could be located away from a contiguous site, but that would require a concurrent resolution by the Board of Supervisors and City Council. If the court system was split, it would require a referendum by County voters to move it to another location. Special legislation applies to this County and City due to population brackets. Dr. Roger Schweickert addressed property tax relief. He said he is not opposed to funding government through taxation, but property taxation is unjust, because one's home does not normally produce income. If someone buys a home, they should not have to continue paying the government for it. If taxes are used for fire protection, that is different. Asking taxpayers to pay for education creates a monopoly for public education. He said he wants to see more support for funding public education, but on a voluntary basis. He suggested the County have a head tax to fund education and let teachers decide the size of their classes. Parents should have a choice as to where children are educated. He asked the Board to reconsider the School Board's proposal to increase teachers' salaries, since that would require a tax increase. Ms. Marsha Joseph said she had many questions regarding computers, the firing range, neighborhood plan implementation, traffic calming, the sidewalk construction program, the Rivanna Greenway access and path, purchase of development rights, etc. Ms. Humphris said the answers to these questions are in the materials the Board received, but that the Board could not respond at this time to every question Ms. Joseph asked. Mr. Tucker said staff will meet with Ms. Joseph to respond to her questions. Mr. Bowerman added that he would be happy to meet with Ms. Joseph too. Mr. Tucker added that there are copies of the CIP available to the public. Mr. Bowerman said they need to be made more readily available. 000334 February 17, 1999 (Regular Night Meeting) (Page 7) Mr. Wyant Shields, Town Administrator of Scottsville, thanked the Board for providing monies for the Scottsville Community Center. He said thiS is a good example of local interest and enthusiasm translating into building infrastructure to be used within community. Mr. Tucker asked about roof leakage problems at the Community Center. Mr. Shields said recent investigation shows that leaking is severe. With no one else rising to speak, Ms. Thomas closed the public hearing. Mr. Bowerman said a lot of the County's voters have moved here from other areas. The County must better educate them about the decisions the Board makes and how it makes them. He suggested using a good indexing system and the Internet to spread the information and allow citizens to access information. Mr. Tucker said the County is moving in this direction. Eventually the County Code, Board minutes and other items will appear on the web site. Ms Thomas said an information officer from another county told her they have a full-time person to maintain their website. Mr. Bowerman said it would take a team t° keep the information up-to-date. Ms. Thomas said she hopes the Board can find more funding sources by working through the General Assembly; however the General Assembly does not pass most of the ideas submitted. Agenda Item No. 8. Appointments. Ms. Humphris offered the motion, seconded by Mr. Bowerman, to reappoint Mr. Bruce Kirtley to the Piedmont Housing Alliance, with said term to be effective January 2, 1999, and to expire December 2, 2002. Roll was called and the motion carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Ms. Humphris, Mr. Perkins, Ms. Thomas, and Mr. Bowerman. None. Mr. Marshall and Mr. Martin.

Roll was called and the motion carried by the following recorded vote: AYES: NAYS: ABSENT: Ms. Humphris, Mr. Perkins, Ms. Thomas, and Mr. Bowerman. None. Mr. Marshall and Mr. Martin. Agenda Item No. 10. Other Matters not Listed on the Agenda from the Board. Mr. Bowerman, referring to a letter the Board had received (copy not provided to the Clerk) asked Mr. Tucker to send a letter in support of the housing project for the elderly, and the use of Federal income tax credits. (Note: This is for an assisted federal housing credit for the development off Rio Road near Putt Putt Golf.) Not docketed: Mr. Bowerman moved to go into Executive Session at 8:25 p.m. pursuant to Virginia Code § 2.1-344(A)(7) to consu t with legal counsel and staff regarding a legal matter relating to an interjurisdictional service agreement.
