Albemarle is in the midst of reviewing its Comprehensive Plan. The county is also going through its zoning code. The latter is the sole topic of the Planning Commission’s meeting with an update from staff and the consultant hired to oversee the work.
“The update process has been split into five separate phases of work over the course of the next few years,” reads the staff report. “At the end of this multi-year project, the Board is expected to adopt the ordinance in full.”
The Albemarle County Planning Commission will discuss the topic at their meeting at 6 p.m. in Lane Auditorium at the county’s office building at 401 McIntire Road. (meeting info)
The process is still in phase 1. The presentation will be on a new Article 3 which is the chapter that governs the kinds of applications and permits. Article 10 covers nonconformities.
“Following this work session, staff will be incorporating feedback into the draft Ordinance and soliciting additional feedback from stakeholders, including key County staff within Community Development, Charlottesville Area Development Roundtable (CADRe), and Blue Ridge Home Builders Association (BRHBA),” the staff report continues.
