Call to Order: Vice Chair Rick Randolph called the Commission meeting to order. The order of the
agenda was revised, since a quorum was not established until later in the meeting.
Matters from the Public:
Public Comments: None
Staff Presentations:
• Public Hearing on 5 Year Consolidated Plan and 18-19 Action Plan for HOME & CDBG: Billie
Campbell briefed the Commission on the Consolidated Plan and Action Plan, using the memo, Gap
Analysis for the Charlottesville MSA, Stakeholder Discussion Notes, and Survey Responses included
in the meeting packet. The purpose of this public hearing is to receive input on housing and community
development needs. The process to date has included the compilation and analysis of data, review of
existing plans and reports with sections on housing, meetings with stakeholders, a public survey, and a
public meeting held March 20. The key issue identified through data and input has been high housing
cost burden. Renters and owners are considered cost-burdened if they spend more than 30% of income
on housing costs; spending over 50% of income on housing is considered severely cost-burdened.
There is a physical shortage of units affordable to households earning less than 30% of the Area
Median Income (AMI). Households with incomes over 30% AMI occupy most of the rental units
affordable to this <30% AMI population. There are enough existing units to meet the need of
households with incomes between 30% and 50% AMI, but most of these units are occupied by
households with lower or higher incomes than needed to afford these units, creating an effective
shortage. Renters are more cost-burdened than homeowners, but for both groups, cost burden if the
most pressing issue. Other needs identified are rehabilitation and preservation of affordable units, both
rental and owner-occupied, development of new homes, and rental and down payment assistance.
Rick Randolph opened the public hearing. There were no comments from the public. The public
hearing was closed. Commissioners shared their comments on housing in the region. Jesse Rutherford
noted that Nelson County’s population was not growing. Job opportunities and transportation are key
Q:\Administration\Commission\Commission Packets\PDC Packets FY18\May\3a TJPDC Draft Minutes 04-05-18.docx 2
factors connected to affordable housing. Tony O’Brien added that zoning has a big impact on housing.
The burden on homeowners related to development needs to be appropriate. Young families can
struggle with housing costs. Housing assistance can help. Bob Babyok commented that public
resistance based on Not In My Backyard (NIMBY) thinking can block projects from gaining approval
to move forward. Jesse Rutherford noted that manufactured housing is being shot down in counties. A
recent housing proposal in Greene County was turned down, due to its location along the 29 Corridor
on land identified in the Comprehensive Plan as business use.
• I-64 Study Presentation: Wood Hudson used PowerPoint slides to brief the Commission on the
recently completed SHRP2 Interstate Corridor Plan and circulated some Draft copies of the plan. The
second round of the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) focuses on four areas--safety,
renewal, reliability, and capacity, and has been a significant source of funding for TJPDC. SHRP2
funds were used for the Ecological Project completed in 2011 and supported work for the Long Range
Transportation Plan adopted in May 2014. The 2016 award provided $100,000 for the I-64 Corridor
Plan. This project utilized PlanWorks, a web-based decision support tool to improve collaborative
decision-making. This was a project of the Charlottesville Albemarle Metropolitan Organization
(CAMPO) and demonstrated what works in smaller MPOs. For this project, CAMPO worked with the
Staunton-Augusta-Waynesboro MPO, three VDOT Districts, and five localities. Public safety (fire and
rescue and state police) were also involved as well as the Department of Rail and Public Transportation
(DRPT). Work utilized the PlanWorks Corridor Planning Toolkit, completing six of the 9 key steps.
The Working Group met six times throughout the process, looking at safety, congestions, land use,
economic development and the environment. There was one public Open House during the process and
two joint MPO meetings with CAMPO and SAWMPO. The project was selected as a SHRP2 case
study, and the team has been asked to come to DC to participate in a presentation, looking at
innovation in the planning process. In the area of safety, the project examined crash severity and
concentration, wildlife crashes, and congestion. The plan included a detailed list of recommendations.
One recommendation is to create a Park & Ride lot west of exit 107 in Crozet. Transportation to the
Port of Virginia passes through this area, and the corridor may be designated as a freight corridor. Bob
Babyok asked how future growth was factored in and noted that Louisa is just off the project area map.
Wood responded that the Route 15/I-64 Intersection was a key interchange to handle new growth. A
list of the 29 plan recommendations was included in the presentation. Two recommendations addressed
truck climbing lanes, but there is not much roadway available and slopes are steep, making these
expensive projects. Commissioners expressed appreciation for the presentation and congratulated the
team on the invitation to make a presentation of the project in DC.
• 2018 Legislative Update: David Blount reported that the 2018 General adjourned its 60-day session on
March 10, without an approved budget. The GA will return to Richmond April 11 to begin a special
session to address the state budget. The Governor has until midnight on April 9 to finalize his
recommendations on bills approved by the legislature. The General Assembly will reconvene for a
one-day (“veto”) session on April 18 to consider the Governor’s changes to bills. David noted that the
Broadband Advisory Council was extended for one year, the Center for Innovative Technology (CIT)
has been charged with examining a “dig once” policy for the state, and the federal spending bill
approved in March includes $600 million for Broadband in the Infrastructure package, as part of
USDA's Rural Utilities Service (RUS) program. None of the multiple bills introduced to address the
shortcomings of the proffer law were passed, but a couple were carried over and there may be some
sentiment to re-visit this issue in the near future; however, movement by the Home Builders
Association is needed. Bills extending impact fee authority to all localities were put off and will be
discussed over the summer; some local officials have expressed interest in testifying on this issue. Bob
Babyok noted that the House of Delegates created a select committee to study school safety, to review
state and local policies on school security and make recommendations for the 2019 legislative session.
Finally, David said that Delegate David Toscano introduced a resolution commending the TJPDC and
Q:\Administration\Commission\Commission Packets\PDC Packets FY18\May\3a TJPDC Draft Minutes 04-05-18.docx 3
its localities for efforts on broadband expansion, and we are trying to schedule him to present it to the
Commission in May or June.
Consent Agenda: The consent agenda consisted of the draft minutes of the March 1, 2018 meeting and
Financial Reports for February 2018. On a motion by Andrea Wilkinson, seconded by Bob Babyok, the
Commission unanimously approved the Consent Agenda, with Tony O’Brien, Tommy Barlow, Robert
Babyok and Ernie Reed abstaining on the minutes.
New Business:
Delivery of FY19 Draft Operating Budget: Billie Campbell reminded Commissioners that the TJPDC
budget process includes three actions during the year: a forecast budget in October to serve as the basis for
locality requests; an operating budget in May, as required by the Bylaws; and the final budget late in the
fiscal year as the final budget for financial reporting and the audit. The Draft Memo and FY19 Budget are
in the packet as an information item. Action on the FY19 budget will take place at the May meeting.
Appointment of a Nominating Committee: Rick Randolph relayed appointments made by Chair Gennie
Keller: the Nominating Committee will consist of Andrea Wilkinson, Tommy Barlow, and Gennie Keller.
Executive Director’s Report: A written report and a spreadsheet with information on current projects
were provided in the meeting packet.
Other Business:
Update on Regional Housing Program: Christine Jacobs gave a brief presentation on the Regional Housing
Partnership (RHP). Membership includes representatives from the Public Sector, Private Sector, and
Nonprofit Sector. The Steering Committee has been formed and has met. Their feedback indicated that
there were a lot of parallel efforts, most of which are specific to Charlottesville. There was consensus that
housing is a regional issue calling for a regional approach. The RHP will organize work groups, focus
groups, and summits to move work forward. The process is a cyclical one: TJPDC staff prepares agendas
and meeting packets, convenes the RHP meeting, facilitates regional discussion, prepares meeting minutes,
and proposes drafts of deliverables. The RHP provides feedback to TJPDC staff, proposes ideas, meeting
topics and housing benchmarks, suggests Housing Summit focus, and participates in focus groups. TJPDC
interprets the feedback from the RHP, coordinates activities/studies, develops the benchmarking
dashboard, coordinates Regional Housing Summits, takes meeting minutes, and provides updates to the
RHP. The RHP engages in regional communication around results of activities/studies, participates in
Housing Summit, utilizes studies and benchmarks in practices, provides feedback, proposes new ideas, and
reports to the TJPDC. Next steps will include convening work groups/focus groups to identify specific
needs and making a presentation at the May TJPD Commission meeting. This will include the Framework
as an Action Item for the Commission. The Framework will include the RHP’s overview, purpose,
function, funding, membership, meeting schedule, deliverables, and timeline. Keith Smith commended
Christine for her work and noted that the RHP needs to achieve something actionable.
TJPD Commissioner Roundtable Reports:
• Nelson: Jesse Rutherford reported that the county is working on a GO Virginia application to
development a curriculum for training in the food and beverage industry, which supports 20 to 40
high-paying jobs in the County, on par with Napa Valley. This is a niche market that is critical to
Nelson County’s economy. Other funding streams are also being pursued, including CDBG.
• Fluvanna: Tony O’Brien reported that the County has approved a new plant at Zion Crossroads for LG
Corporation, to recycle auto parts. This represents an $8 to 10 million investment with a new building
and employees. This success is a reflection on the County’s efforts to attract new businesses. There is
some concern and opposition to the water and sewer system. A plan to protect surrounding uses is
being developed, with a buffer of 75 feet around new facilities. Keith Smith used the roundtable
Q:\Administration\Commission\Commission Packets\PDC Packets FY18\May\3a TJPDC Draft Minutes 04-05-18.docx 4
opportunity to provide a handout and update on the Thomas Jefferson Community Land Trust (TJCLT)
project in Charlottesville. TJCLT recently held a kick-off event to introduce the project to the
community.
• Greene: Dale Herring reported that about 75 people attended the Open House for the Ruckersville Plan
held on March 29. The plan will be considered by the Planning Commission in May and by the Board
of Supervisors in June. The FY19 County Budget has been presented, but not yet been voted on. The
proposed budget does not include a tax increase, but some fees are increasing to fund new projects.
Out-of-date radio towers are causing problems for first responders.
• Louisa: Tommy Barlow announced that the North Anna Power Station has been in place for 40 years.
The construction of the facility included damming the North Anna River to create Lake Anna. This has
significantly helped the Louisa County economy and has been a safe operation. There is no timeline
yet for the third reactor.
• Albemarle: Rick Randolph reported that the County has hired Roger Johnson as its new Economic
Development Director. The County is working to prioritize areas to receive broadband service. The
County is financially supporting Habitat for Humanity’s work to redevelop Southwood Mobile Home
Park, without displacing current residents. There is some opposition to the stormwater utility fee; the
program has not yet been presented to the Board of Supervisors. There has been discussion on both the
commercial and residential side regarding open air burning, which is an environmental issue. It has
been challenging to retain volunteers working in fire and rescue, and the County is now offering
incentives to volunteers. Revenue from the Transient Occupancy Tax has decreased. The location of
the County courts remains in the discussion process. The recently completed Recreational Report
provides insight for the County Department of Parks and Recreation on Biscuit Run and Hedgerow
parks.
• Next Meeting: The next meeting is scheduled for May 3, 2018 in the Water Street Center.
Adjournment: On a motion by Jesse Rutherford, seconded by Bob Babyok, the meeting was adjourned.

NET QUICK ASSETS are the highly liquid assets held by the agency, including cash, marketable securities and
accounts receivable. Net quick assets (NQA) are calculated as current assets (cash + marketable securities +
prepaid assets + accounts receivable) minus current liabilities of payables and deferred revenue. The FY18 target
has been revised to 5 months of operating expenses (TJPDC costs minus pass‐through and project contractual
expenses), based on a rolling twelve‐month average. The Commission has earmarked excess NQA above the
target as the Capital Reserve Fund. TJPDC had 7.30 months of operating expenses at the end of the month. The
rolling twelve‐month average operating expenses changes only slightly from month to month, increasing from
to $90,885 in February to $92,321 in March. Actual operating expenses for March were $100,840 compared to
$99,747 in February. Funds available for the Capital Reserve Fund are $212,452 (Actual NQA – target NQA).
Figures for February have been revised, due to a slight overstatement of revenues in last month’s report.
UNRESTRICTED CASH ON HAND
consists of funds held in checking and
money market accounts immediately
available to TJPDC for expenses. Cash
does not include pass‐through depos‐
its in transit. Total cash minus notes
payable minus deferred revenue =
Unrestricted Cash on Hand.
Months of Unrestricted Cash divides unrestricted cash on hand by the agency’s average monthly operating ex‐
penses to give the number of months of operation without any additional cash received. The end of month level
of Unrestricted Cash on Hand of $447,247 represents 4.84 months of operating expenses.

NET REVENUE is the surplus or shortfall resulting from monthly revenues minus expenses. The FY18 Operating
Budget adopted in March 2018 projects a surplus of $83,785 for the year. There was surplus in March of
$2,238. The February surplus was slightly overstated and has been corrected. The resulting year‐to‐date sur‐
plus of $83,330. This nearly reaches the budgeted target, with three months remaining in the fiscal year.
NOTES
1. Target is a reasonable expectation that the TJPDC may reach this level to achieve our long range finan‐
cial goals. A plan will be developed showing how these target goals are expected to be achieved
through daily financial management practices.
2. Concern is a level where staff will immediately identify causes of the change in financial position,
whether this is a special one‐time circumstance caused by a financial action or whether a trend is
emerging caused by one of more operational or financial circumstances and prepare a plan of action to
correct or reverse the trend.
3. Back up documentation and details of this Financial Dashboard can be found in the monthly financial
statements of balance sheet, income statement and cash position statement supplied to the TJPDC
Commissioners.
4. The average monthly operating expense is a rolling twelve‐month average of operating expenses
(TJPDC costs minus pass‐through and project contractual expenses).
5. TJPDC achieved its FY17 goal of exceeding $500,000 in Net Quick Assets before the end of the year.
The Commission has earmarked some of TJPDC’s reserves for a building or capital fund, tied to Net
Quick Assets.

MEMORANDUM
To: TJPD Commissioners
From: Chip Boyles, Executive Director
Date: May 3, 2018
Re: Recommended FY19 Budget and Work Program
Purpose: The Annual Operating Budget and Work Program sets forth the anticipated work, revenue and
expenditures for the upcoming fiscal year, July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019.
Background: The TJPDC Bylaws state that the “budget and work program for the ensuing fiscal year
shall be approved by the Commission at or before the regular meeting in May.” These documents are also
required for submission to the Department of Housing and Community Development, along with the FY18
annual report. The budget may be amended by the Commission at any Commission meeting.
Issues: The Work Program incorporates the Scopes of Work approved by the MPO and the TJPDC for the
urban and rural transportation programs, as well as the housing activities identified in the HOME Action
Plan. The Scope of Work also includes activities reflected in the Ride Share Work Plan. Other activities in
the Work Program were added by program managers.
Projected revenues for FY19 are $2,185,477, and projected expenditures are $2,185,477. This budget and
work program covers the period from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019. This is the recommended preliminary
operating budget for FY 2019. The final budget will be provided in early 2019 for Commission
consideration at the March meeting, at which time we will have more definitive revenues identified for
FY19. Should expected revenues not materialize in the first half of FY19, staff would present the
Commission with a plan to decrease expenditures for the second half of FY19.
The Finance Committee met prior to the May Commission meeting to select a budget to recommend to the
Commission for adoption at the May Commission meeting. The draft provided in April allows all
commission members to offer input to the Finance Committee and/or TJPDC staff. The April draft was
revised to include a very recent notice of a $50,000 contract with DEQ to perform Watershed
Implementation Planning services in FY19. This contract will remove the need to prior years’ retained
earnings at this time. It also allows the removal of some of the proposed grant revenues that are subject to
award. We have kept in place the Regional Economic Development Strategy and the Regional Housing
Analysis projects to apply for funding.
Staff’s goal is to have positive net earnings each fiscal year and to have each fiscal year’s budget stand
alone with no use of prior year’s retained earnings until our optimal retained earnings are reached. If the
previous three fiscal years are an indication, we should be able during this fiscal year to balance our
budget and not use prior years’ reserves. A long-term goal is to build retained earnings, first to a safe level
maintaining six months of average operating expenses available for immediate use if needed, and secondly
to save for use toward the purchase of a future office building, and third to have resources available to
take advantage of regional project grants that require a local match. Now that we safely have six months
of operating funds in savings, using cash reserves is less risky.
FY18 has been very good so far with expected retained earnings of approximately $ 83,785. FY18
retained earnings through March exceed $83,330.
Revenue: The proposed budget reflects funding for the proposed work program, drawn from the
documents identified above, with some figures included for potential projects not yet awarded or under
contract. At this point in the year, TJPDC does not have a full commitment of local funding, awards or
contracts for FY19. Funds included reflect recently awarded projects and estimates of potential projects
that have a very high likelihood of being awarded. Staff includes only potential funding sources that we
are very sure will be awarded.
• Locality revenue is shown based on member assessments adopted at the October, 2017
Commission meeting and reflected in budget requests. Not all of the localities have taken action on
budgets at this time.
• State Revenue - We are optimistic that once a state budget is approved, that funding through
DHCD will remain at the FY18 level of $75,971. PDC’s have received this amount for several
years and is in the current state budget draft.
• At this time, all locally requested funds are included in submitted local budgets including RRBC,
Rideshare and Legislative Liaison funding.
• Charlottesville-Albemarle MPO funding reflects allocations through FTA, VDOT and DRPT for
FY19 of $279,017. Local match is required of $ 31,003.
• RideShare funding of $139,258 which is consistent with prior year funding levels.
• The amount of HOME funds that will be available for the coming year has not been provided to
TJPDC at this time. Staff is projecting level funding from FY18. Based on that figure staff is
anticipating $45,691 for administration and $411,216 in pass-through revenue and expenditures for
the HOME program. The new Presidential Administration has proposed a budget that greatly
reduces this funding for future years. This should not affect our FY19 budget but may be
eliminated in FY20 and future budgets. We have chosen to not make any budgetary changes until
final federal changes are known.
• Savings has increased for the TJPDC from our move to the Virginia Investment Pool resulting in
an increased earned interest income expected to be $ 6,000 from $2,500 previously.
• Office and Water Street rental income is expected to remain constant at $ 10,200.
• The VDOT TAP Grant for 5th Street Station bike/ped improvements will continue through FY19.
$472,310 has been budgeted for final design and construction.
• Though not awarded yet, we have included the Housing Preservation Grant for $ 54,338. We have
been awarded this program for three years and expect to receive for this fourth year.
• The TJPDC is contracted to assist with VDOT’s Hydraulic Planning Study into FY2019 in the
amount of $12,248. These are local funds contributed from Charlottesville and Albemarle.
• Staff continues to provide plan review assistance to Albemarle County in an amount expected to be
$ 33,167 in FY19.
• Not budgeted is an expected continuation of the Albemarle Pilot Community Assessment report.
Staff will complete the pilot in FY18 and is expected to contract for additional neighborhoods in
FY19.
• Other possible funding sources not budgeted at this time include: Yancey/Scottsville CDBG project
and the Lovingston Downtown Revitalization planning grant, Albemarle County CDBG assistance,
and local government comprehensive plan assistance.
Expenses: Staff estimates of expenses reflect retention of 13 staff/positions we expect will be in place on
July 1, 2018.
• Agency expenses, excluding personnel and contracts with outside entities, are generally based on
FY18 expenditures.
• This FY19 forecast budget includes 2% staff salaries increase effective July 1st. Excluding the
Executive Director, a 2% raise would cost an additional $11,553 and $1,750 in benefits.
• The TJPDC Retirement through Virginia Retirement System reduced our contribution based upon
our FY18 assets from .0335 of salaries to .021. This saves the TJPDC approximately $9,518 in
FY19.
• Including $11,850 in intern salaries for assistance, if needed, for the Cherry Avenue, Albemarle
Community Assessment, Louisa/Nelson Comp Plan, Watershed Plan, Housing and the CEDS
projects.
• Health insurance premiums have increased by 9.2%. This increased expense is being borne equally
between the TJPDC and employees. TJPDC continues to provide 100% of individual employee
premiums. Couple premiums increase $ 38 per month for the employee and family premiums
increase $55 per month for the employee. This is the first increase in 3 years. Additional costs to
the TJPDC from FY18 to FY19 due to the premium increase and employee coverage changes is an
additional $8,649.00.
• We anticipate to begin to experience a decreased indirect cost rate in future years. (This is a good
thing) We have begun to charge staff time including indirect costs to per capita funding when the
activity can be directly tied to a member government project or directly tied to a regional project.
In the past, many of the activities were billed under general administrative duties, driving up our
indirect cost rate. This policy change also allows TJPDC staff to decrease services to local
governments when equitable per capita funding is not met by a local government. Current Indirect
Cost Rates have decreased from 89% in FY14 to 72% in FY19.
• Increases of 3% are budgeted for rent.

The March Financial Reports are attached for review. Financial Reports are
presented in detail every quarter to the Commission and on the consent agenda
other months.
i. Dashboard Report - Net quick assets are $674,057. Based upon the
twelve-month average for operating expenses, we remain to have over 7
months of available operating expenses. Our current goal is 5 months of
available operating expenses.
ii. Unrestricted Cash on Hand as of March 31, 2018 was $447,247 or
almost 5 months of average monthly operating expenses. 4 months is
our current target level and concern level is less than 2 months.
iii. Revenue less Expenses - We had a net gain of $2,238 for the month of
March. This gives us a fiscal year net gain of $83,330. Our FY18
Amended Operating Budget estimates a $83,785 net gain for the year.
The February surplus was slightly overstated due to several late
expenses and has now been corrected.
iv. Profit & Loss. Total income through March is $1,253,409. With 9
months or 75% of the fiscal year complete, we have received 61 % of
our total budgeted income. Total expenses are $1,170,109or 60% of the
budgeted total expenses of $1,962,383. Operating expenses for the same
period are $847,888 or 71% of our total budgeted operating expenses.
Operating revenue through March is $931,188 or 73% of the budgeted
operating revenue of $1,280,033.
v. Balance Sheet. As of March 31, 2018, we have total current assets of
$961,319 and total fixed assets of $7,792. Total assets are up by
$380,488 from the same time last year. Total liabilities have increased
from a year ago by $238,105 with total liabilities as of March 31, 2018
of $339,389. Total Equity has increased by $142,383 since the same
time last year.
vi. Accrued revenues of existing grant and contract balances for FY18 are
shown. We currently have $349,856 or $116,619 per month available
funds in existing contracts and grants. March operating expenses were
$100,840. Our 12-month average is $92,321.
As a reminder, it is our goal to build our reserves back to and above FY12 levels (year-end
FY12 = $579,293) where we will have 1) at least 6 months operating expenses in reserves
2) utilize reserves for unanticipated grant match for local/regional grant opportunities and
3) to save for the possible purchase of a building (space) at some time in the future.
5. Resolutions
a. Adoption of the FY19 Operating Budget. Please see the attached FY19 Budget
Memo.
b. Election of GO Virginia Regional Council representatives.
Currently the TJPDC is represented by CAO Steve Carter, Nelson County, and
Supervisor Fitz Barnes, Louisa County for one-year terms on the Council. Their
terms expire in April. The Council is trying to provide as many regional leaders as
possible with participation and ask for consideration of new representatives. Both
Mr. Carter and Mr. Barnes have served the region in exemplary fashion during this
first year of the GO Virginia organization. The new term is a three-year term.
Currently, the regional CAO’s have recommended Mr. Christian Goodwin to serve
as the region’s CAO representative.
Currently, I have received two notices of interest for elected official representative:

THOMAS JEFFERSON PLANNING DISTRICT COMMISSION Summary of Activities
January through March 2018
Environment: TJPDC submitted the Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) to the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) for approval on March 6 and received notice of Approval Pending
Adoption (APA) on March 14. The final step in the process is to submit adoption resolutions from all
localities in the Planning District to FEMA. The Town of Scottsville was the first jurisdiction to approve
a formal resolution of adoption at their March 19 meeting. TJPDC is working with localities to get this
on meeting agendas to complete the process. The plan as submitted for FEMA review is posted on the
TJPDC website at http://tjpdc.org/environment/hazard-mitigation-plan-2017/.
TJPDC received formal notification of acceptance of the 5-Year Update of the Thomas Jefferson
Planning District Commission (TJPDC) Solid Waste Management Plan (SWMP) on February 13,
2018. The update was initially submitted to the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) in October
2016, with requested follow-up information provided in January 2018. The Thomas Jefferson Solid
Waste Planning Unit (SWPU) includes the City of Charlottesville and the Counties of Albemarle,
Fluvanna, and Greene. The SWPU is required to maintain the mandated minimum 25% recycling rate of
the total municipal solid waste (MSW) generated annually. The 2017 recycling report is due to DEQ by
April 30, 2018. The rate for 2016 was 33%. The 2018 report is due April 30.
Housing:
TJPDC and the City of Charlottesville are updating the five-year Consolidated Plan, guiding
the use of federal HOME funds for housing in the region and Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds in the City of Charlottesville. Over 500 people responded to a survey to identify housing
and community needs. TJPDC also hosted a public meeting on March 20 to present findings from data
analysis and the survey, and to receive input on five-year goals. The Draft Consolidated Plan was issued
for public comment on March 28, with comments accepted through April 27. The plan includes an
assessment of local and regional affordable housing and community development needs and establishes
multiyear goals based on identified needs. The Draft Plan and materials from the March 20 public
meeting are posted at http://tjpdc.org/housing/5-year-consolidated-plan-update/.
Legislative Liaison: The Legislative Liaison spent most of this quarter at the General Assembly. Activities included
lobbying locality-requested bills and other legislation of interest and concern to PDC localities; regular
communications with TJPD legislators; phone and email communication with local government officials
and monitoring of all budget and legislative activities. During the session, he provided periodic updates
through legislative newsletters and alerts posted on the TJPDC website and sent out by e-mail. The
session adjourned March 10 without taking action on a state budget for FY19/20, so the legislature is
reconvening in special session beginning April 11. The budget is being held up over the issue of
expanding Medicaid; a majority of the House favors a limited expansion, while the Senate majority is
opposed to expanding health care coverage at this time.
The liaison planned a January workshop on alternate forms of infrastructure financing, which
was attended by local state and elected officials. He also led discussion on legislative matters at the
January meeting of the Mayor & Chairs/CAOs meeting. Following the regular session, the liaison
worked to review and analyze approved legislation for inclusion in a final summary of the legislative
session.
Local/Regional Support: The TJPDC has been spearheading work with Greene County on the Ruckersville Area Plan. A
final open house for the plan was held on March 29 to provide interested community members an
opportunity to provide input on the draft area plan recommendations. About 75 people attended the
event, which included an overview presentation and posters throughout the room that illustrated the
recommendations made in the draft report. The final document will be a 10-year plan of specific action
items the county and the community can take to move Ruckersville toward its vision. The study includes
both the Route 33 and Matthew Mill Road intersections with Route 29, and contains 26
recommendations in the areas of community, economic development, land use, infrastructure and
transportation.
TJPDC staff met with residents of Charlottesville’s Fifeville neighborhood on March 25 to mark
the official start of the neighborhood’s involvement in the community-driven effort to craft a small area
plan for the Cherry Avenue corridor. Residents were invited to attend the event to tell their stories
about Fifeville’s past, express their values, voice their concerns, and share their hopes for where they
think the neighborhood should go in the future. The gathering started with a brief introduction to the
planning process and then residents broke out into smaller groups for storytelling. At the conclusion of
the event, the roughly 35 attendees were encouraged to sign up to help participate in future public
engagement efforts, request an in-person interview with staff, and volunteer to assist with a “Better
Block” demonstration event to be conducted this summer.
The Charlottesville Albemarle MPO has been helping to coordinate a small area plan effort for
the Hydraulic/29 intersection and Hydraulic Extended South. These projects are in the next phase of
Route 29 Solutions, for preliminary engineering and small area planning. The Hydraulic 29 Small Area
Plan Advisory Panel met March 23 and recommended a traffic scenario that involves a grade-separated
intersection, similar to the intersection of Route 29 and Rio Road, that would depress Hydraulic Road
under Route 29. Construction costs are estimated at $63 to $80 million, plus about $5.2 million for
utility relocation.
The TJPDC continues to provide plan review services to Albemarle County. Three TJPDC
planners are providing 40 hours of contractual work per week. Services include the review of site plans
and subdivision plats for conformity with the codes of Albemarle County and the Commonwealth of
Virginia.
The Charlottesville Area Alliance (CAA) made a presentation on “Becoming an Age-Friendly
Community” at the February 14 meeting of the Senior Statesmen of Virginia (SSV), held at the Senior
Center. JABA Executive Director Marta Kean served as the moderator. Panelists included Brad
Sheffield, Executive Director of JAUNT, talking about Transportation, Sunshine Mathon, Executive
Director of Piedmont Housing Alliance, speaking about Housing, Rebecca Schmidt, Population Health
Manager for the Thomas Jefferson Health District, addressing Community Health and Aging, and Peter
Thompson, Executive Director of the Senior Center, discussing Civic Participation and Employment. At
the conclusion of the presentation, SSV President Rich DeMong called for a vote on the resolution for
the SSV to became a partner member of the Charlottesville Area Alliance, and the resolution passed
unanimously. This brings the total of regional partners to 18. Other partners include: The Alzheimer’s
Association, City of Charlottesville, County of Albemarle, Cville Village, Hospice of the Piedmont,
Home Instead Senior Care, JAUNT, Jefferson Area Board for Aging (JABA), Piedmont Housing
Alliance (PHA), Region Ten, Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at UVA, Senior Center, Sentara
Martha Jefferson Hospital, the Thomas Jefferson Health District, the Thomas Jefferson Planning District
Commission (TJPDC), University of Virginia Health System, and Westminster Canterbury of the Blue
Ridge. CAA’s vision is that “The greater Charlottesville area will be the most age-friendly community
in the country.”
On March 15, TJPDC conducted the pre-construction conference for the Demolition of Four
Buildings in the Columbia area in Fluvanna County. At the meeting, the demolition contract between
TJPDC and Shelbeck Excavating LLC of Scottsville was signed. This project is funded with $149,625 in
federal funds through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), $39,900 of state funds
through the Virginia Department of Emergency Management (VDEM), and $9,975 in local funds from
Fluvanna County. Work for the project has included appraisals, survey, title search, property acquisition,
Asbestos-Containing Materials Inspections Report, in addition to the demolition and site restoration
work now under contract. FEMA carried out the environmental review work, resulting in the Record of
Environmental Consideration (REC) dated August 14, 2017. The former Town of Columbia is eligible
for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and the demolition of two of the buildings
would result in an adverse effect to the district. FEMA undertook measures including updating survey
photographs of the buildings as well as the online database with Intensive Level (Phase II) survey forms
for each subject property in the historic district and a general Preliminary Information Form (PIF) for the
historic district. The land will be restored to green space, and is deed-restricted to open space,
recreational, wildlife habitat, or wetland uses in perpetuity. Demolition work is expected to be complete
by the end of June.
Transportation: The TJPDC hosted a public meeting on March 15 to present the proposed layout of the multi-
use trails for the 5th Street Hub and Trails project. The locations, presented by design consultant Land
Planning & Design Associates (LPDA), were based on stakeholder input. The constructed trails will link
multiple neighborhoods and resources in the Fifth Street/I-64 area of Charlottesville and Albemarle, an
area that is central to a network of walking and bicycle facilities in the jurisdictions. TJPDC serves as
the project sponsor for this project, which is funded through a Transportation Alternatives Program
(TAP) Grant. The project budget includes $399,880 of federal funds, and $200,000 of local funds from
the proffer agreement for the 5th Street Station development, which also provides some dedicated land
for the project. The project contract calls for construction to be complete by October 1, 2020. A project
web page has been set up at http://campo.tjpdc.org/5th-st-hub-trails/.
The Regional Transit Partnership (RTP) Board met February 28 to review FY19 Transit
Budget requests from Charlottesville Area Transit (CAT), JAUNT, and RideShare. The RTP also
encouraged the General Assembly delegation to take action to reauthorize the use of Capital Project
Revenue bonds, approved in 2007 to provide $600 million over 10 years for transit capital, and to
identify funding for local and regional transit programs across the state. CAT, JAUNT and RideShare
presented a report for the month of February to provide an update on existing transit options serving and
the City of Charlottesville and Counties of Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa and Nelson Counties. The
RTP began meeting in August 2017 as an advisory body, with specific review responsibilities to include
route changes, budgetary matters and transit education.
RideShare:
RideShare is working to reduce traffic congestion and increase mobility throughout Central
Virginia and the Central Shenandoah Valley. March 5-9 was Virginia Telework Week. In partnership
with the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT), RideShare encouraged
employers and workers to visit Teleworkva.org to learn about the benefits of teleworking, get help
setting up a pilot program or expand on an existing program, and take the 2017 Telework Week pledge.
RideShare provides Telework support and is available to help you learn more about this eco-friendly
work option. RideShare also helps to develop and market the region’s Park and Ride lots. Currently,
there are 26 Park & Ride lots serving central Virginia and the Shenandoah Valley. RideShare conducted
its quarterly Park & Ride inventory in late March.
Administration and Staff The TJPD Commission used most of its first meeting of calendar year 2018, held February 1, as an
orientation for new and returning Commission members. As a result of turnover on local governing
bodies, the Commission welcomed five new members: Mike Signer – Charlottesville, Liz Palmer –
Albemarle; Bob Babyok – Louisa, and Ernie Reed and Jesse Rutherford – Nelson. The Commission
consists of 12 members, 2 from each member locality. A majority of Commissions must be local elected
officials.
The TJPDC also welcomed two new staff members on February 1.
Jacob zumFelde is a new full-time planner. He graduated from Ohio State University in 2017 with a
dual Master’s degree in City and Regional Planning and Civil Engineering, focusing on transportation.
He also has an undergraduate degree in Environmental Science and Chemistry from Eastern Mennonite
University, which included an internship planning a bicycle and pedestrian path in Harrisonburg, VA.
He is focusing his work on the long-range transportation plan (LRTP 2045) and assisting with the
Jefferson Area Bike and Pedestrian Plan.
Christine Jacobs is the new TJPDC Housing Coordinator and Executive Director for the Thomas
Jefferson Community Land Trust (TJCLT). She received a Master’s of Public Policy last year from
UVA’s Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy. She had a 15-year career as a middle school
teacher, and most recently has been a consultant for the Center for Nonprofit Excellence, where she
