RE: MATTERS FROM THE PUBLIC centers be deleted from that district. Ms. Polly Callahan was present to express her concerns about data centers being included in the proposed technology flex research and development district. She recommended that data BOOK 43PA6E378 Board of Supervisors April 9,2024 Sheet 4 Ms. Jeanette Covington was present to ask why the Blue Ridge Meadows site plan still shows an entrance off of the Route 33 Bypass as the Board has previously denied it. She also asked what development was happening with the old wash house now owned by Lydia Mountain Lodge as they have just put in a second entrance off of 33 and cleared a road to the top of the mountain. She also stated that the rezone at the corner 29 and 33 makes sense, but she does not agree with a storage facility being there. Ms. Gwen Baker was present via Zoom to thank Ms. Schafrik for the newsletter. RE: PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST BY MAI G. SHIFLETT/QUATTLEBAUM DEVELOPMENT COMPANY FOR AJ REZONE FROM A-1TO Ms. Golon provided context about the rezoning request process and how zoning ordinances are meant toi implement the goals oft the Comprehensive Plan. She said that this particular property has been zoned Al since 1974 and the applicant is seeking to rezone it to B3 to allow for more intensive development, specifically a conditioned self-storage facility. She explained that B3 zoning allows for 57 different uses by right that could potentially go on this property. She said that the proposed use of storage units has advantages such as reduced traffic when compared to retail, and no school children. The owner has offered voluntary proffers to ensure the structure meets the existing character of the area. Ms. Golon said that the Planning Commission B-30NTHE PARCEL LOCATED AT 14865 SPOTSWOOD TRAIL recommended approval 5-0. The applicant and the engineer were both present for questions. The public hearing was opened. Ms. Andrea Leffew expressed disbelief that out of 57 potential uses for the property, all Greene County could get is a storage facility, especially in such a high traffic location. She felt the land on the other side of Route 29 would be al better location foras storage facility since it would not be as visible. Ms. Leffew said the board and committees should be more selective about what businesses come to Ruckersville toj prevent it from becoming l"another trashy spot along 29." She noted when she first visited Ruckersville years ago, they avoided stopping here because of how it looked, and does not think a large storage facility fits the vision of the community. Ms. Jennifer Lewis-Fowler. asked the board to deny the rezoning request due to the already congested intersection and large trucks turning in/out being a safety hazard. She said that only traffic from the north would have direct access to the parking lot, requiring vehicles from other directions to make U-turns. The proposed storage facility footprint of over 37,000 square feet is much larger than the nearby Jack's Shop Kitchen. The storage facility could potentially be 3-4 stories tall, surpassing the height of nearby buildings and becoming a main attraction at the intersection. Mr. Ken Copeland requested the board to deny the rezoning request for the storage facility. He questioned the justification letter's estimate of $11 million in proposed parcel value and associated tax revenue, saying it was unlikely to be assessed that high. Nearby self-storage BOOK 43s:379 Board of Supervisors April 9,2024 Sheet 5 facilities have much lower assessed values, like $2 million and $567,000. Other developments like Lowe's and a Holiday Inn Express have lower assessed values than what is being claimed for the storage facility. Existing storage facilities in Greene County show this development would not benefit the county. He said the developer is not offering meaningful proffers to offset impacts if the facility is approved. Ms. Anthea Haseldon noted the parcel is designated as mixed-use village center but is currently zoned Al, which seems out of place compared to neighboring B3 properties. She said justifying the rezoning based on demand for storage units from new apartments could also justify demand for other B1 and B2 businesses. The proposed development will be a storage facility, and there are only SO many ways to dress up the design of a storage unit. She recommended the board deny the application but also consider working with the applicant on al business that better fits the mixed-use village designation using B1 or B2 zoning if needed. She wants to see Greene County develop its own unique identity rather than comparing it to other locations. The public hearing was closed. The Board discussed the proposed use and the traffic concerns, as well as the character of the building as related to the area. They discussed that the area would be better served by a less intensive use such as B1 orl B2. Upon motion by Steve Catalano, second by Tim Goolsby and unanimous roll call vote, the Board denied the rezone request.

RE: PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AN AMENDMENT TO GREENE COUNTY ORDINANCE $ 34.2TO INCREASE THE FEE ASSESSED ON CIVIL ACTIONS FOR THE Ms. Kemp explained that this would be an amendment to our current ordinance in which the fee is increased from $2.00 to $4.00 as requested by the Judge's assistant. The fee funds the MAINTENANCE OFTHE LAW LIBRARY FROMS2.00T054.00 maintenance of the Law Library. The public hearing was opened and closed with no comments.

RE: RESOLUTION OF INTENT TO AMEND THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO ADD Ms. Golon said that, in May 2023, the Board of Supervisors adopted the 2023 edition of the Greene County Comprehensive Plan. During the work sessions and hearings for the plan it was determined that a place type for the technology and research industry should be added. This place type would promote economic development and job growth in an emerging market sector. This district would promote industry similar to the lower traffic and loweri impact facilities located int the UVA Research Park. She explained that the resolution of intent to amend the zoning ordinance directs staff and the Planning Commission to work with the public to create standards and regulations to govern the proposed zoning district. Staff and the Planning Commission will begin the process with public work sessions, followed by a public hearing and recommendation to IECHNOLOGYELEX RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT the board. It was the consensus of the Board that a work session be scheduled with the Planning Commission to discuss the topic before the Board asks staff to work on this addition to the Comprehensive Plan. BOOK 43AsE381 Board of Supervisors April 9, 2024 Sheet 7 RE: WATER ANDSEWER TOWN HALL Ms. Durrer said that Ms. Schafrik had tentatively set a date in. June for a Water and Sewer Town Hall meeting. Mr. Catalano said that he would prefer an agenda item to be set after the budget is adopted, to discuss the idea ofh having a Town Hall meeting. RE: BOARDLIAISON REPORTS Mr. Goolsby attended the Thomas Jefferson Planning District Commission meeting. He said that all other surrounding localities are raising taxes, and that Greene was the only one lowering them. RE: COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S UPDATE Ms. Schafrik updated the Board on the status of the phone system upgrade. She also told everyone about the powerlifting competition being hosted by Parks and Recreation that is being held in honor of. Justin Tooley.
