Description: This dataset represents the official land use designations of Albemarle County's Comprehensive Plan Areas. These areas include: Neighborhoods 1-7 which surround the City of Charlottesville; the Village of Rivanna which contains the Glenmore subdivision; and the Communities of Piney Mtn, Hollymead to the north and Crozet to the west. The land use designations specific to the development area of Crozet are based on the Crozet Master Plan, officially adopted in December 2004. The Crozet Masterplan was readopted October 2010. Land use for the Crozet Development Area depicts what is on the officially adopted Crozet Master Plan Land Use Map. The officially adopted map is a static image, delivered and stored in both .JPG and .PDF formats. This image was geo-referenced to our road centerline file and was used as a guide to re-create the map in a GIS-friendly format. It is intended to reflect as accurately as possible the official map. It is important to remember that the static image is still the official map. Also of note is that the Crozet Master Plan map has a unique set of land use designations, specific to the Crozet Master Plan and the Crozet Development Area. These designations are only found in the Crozet Master Plan Land Use Map. The land use designations for the rest of the Comp Plan Areas are different and are not found on the Crozet Master Plan Land Use Map. The Crozet Master Plan, an adopted part of the Albemarle County Comprehensive Plan, is intended as a general guide for future development and systematic change in the Community of Crozet.The land use designations specific to the development area of Neighborhood 3, also known as Pantops, are based on the Pantops Master Plan, officially adopted in March 2008. The Pantops Master Plan map does still contain some of the same land use designations found in other areas of the County. However, there are designations specific to the Pantops Master Plan. The land use designations specific to the development area of Village of Rivanna are based on the Rivanna Master Plan, officially adopted in May 2010. The land use maps in the official Comprehensive Plan are not based on parcel boundary geography.The following disclaimer applies: Contact the Chief of Planning (Planning Division), Department of Community Development, for information/determination of land use designations. Interpretations should only be made by Chief or Planning Division staff. These Comprehensive Plan Area Land Use Designations are described in detail in the County's Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan is Albemarle County's most important document regarding growth, development and change. It establishes government policy to help guide public and private activities as they relate to land use and resource utilization. It is the basis for land development regulations and decisions (rezonings, special use permits), capital improvements (public projects such as schools, parks, libraries), transportation, environmental and historic resource protection initiatives, new county programs and decisions on the distribution of county budget dollars to a multitude of programs and agencies. The Comprehensive Plan is advisory in nature and, with its accompanying maps, charts and other supplementary information, it sets forth the County's long-range recommendations for the development of land within its jurisdiction. The Comprehensive Plan also serves as a guide for the development and implementation of the Zoning Ordinance. Development guidelines contained in the maps, charts and other supplementary materials in the Comprehensive Plan are intended as targets rather than specific requirements, consistent with the advisory nature of the document. Note that there may be other layers that contain land use designations for areas that have undergone a master plan process.
