          submitted applications seeking a Rezoning, a Special Use Permit, and a Critical Slope Waiver for
          approximately 0.652 acres of land, including multiple lots identified within City real estate records Real
          Estate Parcel Identification Numbers 23013000, 230134000, & 230135000 (collectively, “Subject
          Property”). The Subject Property has frontage on Valley Road Extended and the unimproved section of
          Grove Street Extended. The applications propose to change the zoning district classification of the Subject
          Property from R-2 (Residential Two-Family) to R-3 (Residential Multifamily Medium Density) for the
          specific development described in the application, subject to one proffered development condition
          (“Proffer”). The Proffers include: (1) Prior to the issuance of certificate of occupancy for the seventh dwelling
          unit on the Property, the Owner shall contribute Forty-Eight Thousand Dollars ($48,000.00) to the City of
          Charlottesville’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as a cash contribution for construction of sidewalk
          improvements along Valley Road Extended. The Landowner’s application materials represent that the
          development will include restoration of the section of Rock Creek that runs through the Subject Property.
          The applicant is also seeking a Special Use Permit to increase the density from 21 Dwelling Units per Acre
          (DUA) to 43 DUA within the area of the Subject Property, as authorized by City Code Sec. 34-420 (Use
          Matrix, R-3 District). The proposed development consists of four apartment buildings with seven (7) two-
          bedroom units in each building. The total number of units would not exceed twenty-eight units. The
          Comprehensive Land Use Map for this area calls for Low Density Residential. The proposed development
          calls for disturbance of land within Critical Slopes area; this application also presents a request for a Critical
          Slope Waiver per City Code Sec. 34-1120(b)(6). Information pertaining to this application may be viewed
          online at www.charlottesville.gov/agenda. Persons interested in the Rezoning, Special Use Permit or
