Dear Mr. Shifflett:

The Albemarle County Planning Commission, at its meeting on December 9, 2008, by a vote of 6:0, recommended approval of the above-noted petition to the Board of Supervisors with the 5 conditions recommended by staff at the meeting with the understanding that the 5^th condition will be further modified before the Board of Supervisors’ meeting to reflect suggestions by the County Attorney.

Please note that this approval is subject to the following conditions:

3. There shall be no day care center or private school on site without approval of a separate special use permit.
