Utility Installation Project to Begin in Late October on Jefferson Park Circle
I am writing to inform the Fry’s Spring Neighborhood Association about a utility installation project on Jefferson Park Circle. The need for the project was identified when reports of low water pressure were investigated. A new water main will be installed in the eastern loop of JPC from the intersection at McElroy to the intersection of Park Road and Brunswick Road. The new water main will improve flow and water quality for the houses along this stretch and a new fire hydrant will be installed to provide much needed fire protection for the neighborhood.
I expect that the project will begin near the end of October and should last 6-10 weeks. We will try to maintain through traffic during the project, but residents who use this road should be encouraged to find an alternate route, as vehicular traffic can significantly slow progress. Also, there may be times when the location of the construction requires a full closure of the road, except to local traffic only.
Additional notifications will be delivered directly to the residents immediately adjacent to the construction area.
I hope that you will share this information with the members of the neighborhood association. Any questions or concerns regarding this project can be directed directly to me at 970-3908 or stakeme@charlottesville.org.
Thank you for your time.

Old Lynchburg Road Safety, Sidewalks and Drainage Update
From Charlottesville City engineer Tony Edwards:
I have recently confirmed with Snow’s Nursery that they can provide the plantings at the Jones property this week. I have been looking for Larry and Janice’s phone number to let them know. It seems to be unlisted. If you would be so kind to provide it I will give them a call.
Since the well compacted bio-filter embankment has not allowed the seeding to completely take root and a future trail base will be needed in the same area the city has elected to place some of the stone base now and prevent any bare areas from eroding . The silt fence is the protective measure left in place until the stone is placed. Snow’s will also be installing this material.
The Parks and Public Service departments have been notified about the questions of the kudzu management and maintenance on the city’s Bio-filter area as requested. They are currently looking into the matter.
The contract items are complete and the additional items noted above are scheduled to be completed this week.

Monthly FSNA Newsletter
Dear FSNA Member,
Our next general membership meeting is Wednesday, August 13, 6:00-7:30 PM, at Cherry Avenue Christian Church. Normally this newsletter would include an agenda; however, this month there are several events of great interest to our neighborhood, and I'd like to take a moment to tell you a little about them, in chronological order.
In response to a motion approved by the general membership in 2013, Neighborhood Development Services (NDS) has initiated a study of the potential rezoning of properties currently zoned R2 in the areas of Stribling, Crestmont, and Shamrock, to R1S. A joint public hearing, before both City Council and the Planning Commission, will be held Tuesday, August 12, at 5:30 PM, in Council chambers.
From its inception, and in accordance with its constitutional mandate, your Neighborhood Association's goal is "the conservation and enhancement of the Fry’s Spring neighborhood as an attractive, safe, enjoyable place to live." We have always welcomed professionals, retirees, students, homeowners and renters alike, to this wonderful neighborhood, and that is not going to change. In requesting this rezoning, I am joining three past presidents and other committed members to ask the City to recognize and help us deal with the pressures of growth and its potential impact on the stability of our neighborhood, without adversely affecting the existing R2 properties' value as rentals.
We understand that this is a complex issue and we respect the concerns of R2 property owners. Mike Farruggio and Hardy Whitten are reaching out to concerned neighbors in the affected areas. If you do not have their contact information, please feel free to contact me at fsna.president@gmail.com and I will put you in touch with them.
Next, the 3rd Bike-Walk-Play JPA event will be held Saturday, August 16, from 9:00 AM to noon. It is shaping up to be a great time! As their Facebook page says, "The event will stretch for 1 mile from the JPA Bridge to the Harris/Camellia/JPA Extended intersection. Through active recreation and transportation, Bike Walk Play JPA celebrates and builds connections - ...between people to each other, to their neighborhood, to local organizations, and to local businesses. It encourages people to discover not only that they can bike or walk to places they want to go, but also the fun of ‘getting’ there! Come Bike with us, Walk with us, and Play with us!"
To see what's happening, check out their Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/BikeWalkPlay, and RSVP to the event, https://www.facebook.com/events/1431020227163460/?ref=22.
The event sponsors need your help to make this event a success! Are you interested in helping with set-up or take-down? Manning the barricades at one of the key intersections on JPA? Helping kids decorate their bikes? Or volunteering at the one mile fun run?
If the answer is YES, please sign up on the sign-up sheet located at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/60b094baba929aa8-bike.
Volunteers can enjoy free coffee and bagels before the event begins on Saturday.
If you have any questions about the event or volunteering, please contact Hillary Bracken (hillary_bracken@hotmail.com).
Finally, there is another public hearing coming up, this one with regards to establishing an honorary national historic preservation district in our neighborhood. On Monday, August 18, at 6 PM, in the Fellowship Hall of Cherry Avenue Christian Church. Officials from Richmond, as well as Mary Joy Scala, a City Preservation and Design Planner (and Fry's Spring resident!) will be available to field your questions.
A map of the proposed district is on our web site, http://frysspring.blogspot.com/2014/07/proposed-frys-spring-neighborhood.html.
I'd say "that's all we have going on in August!" but then I would be leaving out the improvements that are being made to Azalea Park and Old Lynchburg Road. Not only that, but your Board and members daily advocate for safe walks to school, good public transportation, and so much more.
Hoping you can attend as many events in August as you can, and thanking all of you for making Fry's Spring such a dynamic and beautiful place to live,
Jeff Greer

What Do You Want C'Ville Streets To Look Like?
City
of Charlottesville
MEMO
"A World Class City”
TO: City
Council
FROM: James
E. Tolbert, AICP, Director
DATE: May 9,
2014
SUBJECT: Street
Design Charette Workshops
From
May 27th through May 30th the Toole Design Group and City
Staff will be conducting a Design Charette on City Street Design. There will be stakeholder meetings,
presentations and drop-in opportunities during the week.
This
memo is to give you background information and the schedule of meetings.
All
meetings are at City Space.
The
first is a stakeholder meeting for neighborhood leaders. This is not a public meeting so we would like
for you to come or send one representative of your neighborhood. The meeting is
Wednesday,
May 28th Large
Room 1:30 p.m. Neighborhood Leaders
There
are several opportunities for public participation in this process. Please invite as many of your neighborhood as
possible to come to some of these.
The
public opportunities for the week include (all at City Space):
May 27th 5:30 p.m. Ian
Lockwood Presentation
May 29th 11:00 am – 1:00 pm Drop In Discussion
6:30 pm – 8:30 pm Open House
May 30th 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm Final Presentation
We
hope that you can come to these meetings.
Below
is additional background information.
Background:
In February 2014, City Council reaffirmed its
commitment to creating complete streets for all users and adopted a resolution
to consider the context surrounding the streets as part of any future street
design process. As part of the resolution, Council directed staff to undertake
a planning process that will reflect the understanding that streets serve a
multitude of transportation, economic, social, recreational and ecological
needs that must be considered when deciding on the most appropriate design.
Process:
The first phase of the planning process will kick-off
on May 27th with a 4 day street design workshop that will establish
a vision to better accommodate and prioritize the multiple users of
Charlottesville’s streets and we hope you will be able to share your insight
throughout the process. The public is invited to attend a kickoff meeting on
Tuesday, May 27th to learn about the process and hear a presentation
from Ian Lockwood on the topic of Livable Streets. Drop in times are scheduled
on Thursday, May 29th from 11:00 am -1:00 pm and from 6:30 pm to
8:00 pm for public to review progress. Revised drawings based on public input
will be available for review and comment on May 30th at a final
presentation from 4:30-5:30 pm at City Space.
We hope you will save the dates!
Deliverables:
The creation of the Street Design Guidelines shows the
City’s commitment toward balancing the needs of all street users, with a
particular focus on the pedestrian environment and how streets can be used as public
space. The Guidelines will recommend streetscape elements based on the type of
street (local collector, arterial) and the character district the street passes
through (downtown, neighborhood center, traditional neighborhood, local or
regional commercial, recreation/open space, or industrial, etc.).
Next Steps:
Throughout the summer, city staff will be reviewing
relevant City ordinances and engineering standards that affect the way our
streets are designed to achieve the vision set out during the street design
workshop.
A final plan that will include the results of the
policy audit and street design workshop will be completed by June 2015.
