'''WHY DO YOU USE CVILLEPEDIA?'''<br />
I like the idea of a curated wiki that is hyperlocal. I especially like that cvillepedia began as a way for [[Charlottesville Tomorrow]] reporters to park information they wanted to keep long-term, and evolved into a vehicle for community members to capture the people, places and things of the Charlottesville-Albemarle area that are important to them.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''WHERE DO YOU CVILLEPEDIA?'''<br />
I mostly cvillepedia at my desk at [[CitySpace]]...but let's be honest. Sometimes I cvillepedia at home on a Friday. It's that addictive.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''CVILLEPEDIA TIP FOR OTHERS?'''<br />
There are no rules other than we the ones we make for ourselves! Don't wait for someone to tell you that something is "okay" - get in there! Try stuff! And let the collaborative nature of the wiki do its thing!<br />

'''John Martin''' moved to [[Albemarle County]] in March 1997.<ref>"Interview with John Martin." Personal interview by Brian A. Wheeler. Charlottesville Tomorrow. 18 Nov 2010.</ref> Martin was a member of the [[Albemarle County Service Authority|Albemarle County Service Authority's Board of Directors]], representing the [[White Hall Magisterial District]] during 2008-2010. He was appointed to the ACSA Board in March 2008 for a term that would have ended on December 31, 2011<ref>[http://www.albemarle.org/upload/images/Forms_Center/Departments/Board_of_Supervisors/Forms/Minutes/20080305minutes.pdf Albemarle County Board of Supervisors Minutes, 5 Mar. 2008]. County of Albemarle. Retrieved 8 Jun. 2010.</ref>. However, Martin resigned September 22, 2010, effective immediately, saying he was concerned that the City of Charlottesville was seeking changes to the [[Community Water Supply Plan]] originally approved in 2006. Martin said he intended to lobby to "defend the plan at the state level vigorously in the hope that no changes to the approved plan will be made."<ref>{{cite web|title=Charlottesville Tomorrow News Center|url=http://cvilletomorrow.typepad.com/charlottesville_tomorrow_/2010/09/martin-resignation.html|author=Sean Tubbs|work=|publisher=Charlottesville Tomorrow|location=|publishdate=|accessdate=17 Nov. 2010}}</ref><br />
<br />
In October 2010, Martin called for state officials to shut down the [[Ragged Mountain Reservoir]] for safety reasons if Charlottesville and Albemarle did not quickly agree to a water plan. Martin sent a letter to the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation calling for some dam operating permits to be revoked, a tactic he hopes will renew the city’s support for the water plan originally approved in 2006.<ref>{{cite web|title=Charlottesville Tomorrow News Center|url=http://cvilletomorrow.typepad.com/charlottesville_tomorrow_/2010/10/dam_safety.html|author=Brian Wheeler|work=|publisher=Charlottesville Tomorrow|location=|publishdate=|accessdate=17 Nov. 2010}}</ref><br />
<br />
Before being appointed to the ACSA board, Martin was a strong advocate for the restoration of stream flows to the Moormans River. The Moormans has had water diverted to supply the [[Ragged Mountain Reservoir]] since the construction of the [[Sugar Hollow Pipeline]] in 1925. As a spokesperson for '''[[Friends of the Moormans River]]''', Martin lobbied local officials to ensure improvements to the aquatic ecosystem of the Moormans River were part of the [[community water supply plan]] that was ultimately approved in 2006.<br />

<div>[[Virginia State Route 20]] is a north-south roadway. Within the area, it runs north from [[Scottsville]] through [[Charlottesville]] and [[Albemarle County]] to Orange. This section of the road is part of the [[Journey Through Hallowed Ground]] scenic by-way. <br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
In the 1800's, Route 20 was known as "Road of the Presidents" because it came close to the homes of Madison, Monroe and [[Thomas Jefferson]]. In 1921, Route 20 was the first road in Albemarle County to be paved using state funds<ref>{{cite web|title="Paving Route 20 to Charlottesville, 1921."|work=A Photo Archive of Scottsville|publishdate=2001|accessdate=28 June 2010|url=http://scottsvillemuseum.com/transportation/homeRoll4Neg3A.html|publisher=Scottsville Museum}}</ref>. <br />
<br />
==Intersections==<br />
Route 20 has an exit to and from [[I-64]] immediately prior to entering Charlottesville. <br />
<br />
==Signage==<br />
As Route 20 enters Charlottesville from the south it is signed [[Monticello Avenue]]. Route 20 continues as [[Avon Street]], [[High Street]], becomes briefly contiguous with [[U.S. Route 250]] as it leaves the city over the [[Free Bridge]].<br />

<hr />
<div>The [[Charlottesville Botanical Garden]] is one of two proposed public [[botanical garden]]s that would be located in the eastern end of [[McIntire Park]]. A non-profit organization with the same name is behind this proposal.<br />
<br />
==Background==<br />
In 2004, the Master Plan was created for the East side of park. According to the plan the [[McIntire Golf Course]] was to be retired and replaced with a: <Blockquote>landscape park that would be in place once the golf course is re-established at Pen Park. The park would include a conservatory available for community and private events, as well as test gardens for environmental education. In addition, more trails would provide access to Schenks’ Branch (via a bridge over the Meadowcreek Parkway), and a circular arbor on the park’s most prominent knoll with its panoramic view. The central idea behind the landscape park is that it would be an unprogrammed open space where visitors could enjoy flying a kite, throwing a frisbee, sunbathing, picnicking, reading, or just doing nothing.<ref>McIntire Park Master Planning Committee. "McIntire Park Master Plan Final Report and Request for Funding Authorization." 5 August 2004. Web. 7 August 2009.<http://www.charlottesville.org/Modules/ShowDocument.aspx?documentid=7755>.</Ref>.</Blockquote>In Spring of 2007, in response to the closing of [[Botanique]], a local rare-plant nursery owned by [[Robert Sacillato]], a discussion began about how the collection from Botanique might be saved, while also creating a destination for tourism in Charlottesville<REF> Piedmont Garden Swap. Yahoo Groups. May, 2007. Web. 29 July 2007. <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/piedmontgardenswap/message/830></Ref><br />
<br />
[[Lonnie Murray]], in a conversation with [[Karen Firehock]], learned that city planning staff had discussed the idea of a botanical garden at McIntire Park as part of the new master plan when and if the [[Meadowcreek Parkway]] is built. This led Murray to bring the idea to Saccillato, and suggest that McIntire could be a suitable place to start a botanical garden and eventually house the existing rare plant collection. <br />
<br />
On June 26, 2007, after the [[C-ville Weekly]] listed a Botanical Garden in its list of "15 things that are missing around here and why"<ref>Daly, Kyle. "Wanted: a strip club, a Home Depot, a botanical garden and more sidewalks." ''C-Ville Weekly'' [Charlottesville] 26 June 2007: n. pag. ''C-Ville''. Portico Publications, 26 June 2007. Web. 5 June 2009. <http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=121304062461064&ShowArticle_ID=11042506073652575>.</ref>, Murray informed C-Ville of the plan for a Botanical Garden being discussed, and it was covered in a later feature story in which Firehock said "If we’re really going to be a world-class city, we need to seek out the amenities that other world-class cities have.<Ref>Moltz, David. "City botanical garden in the works." ''C-Ville Weekly'' [Charlottesville] 3 July 2007: n. pag. ''C-Ville''. Portico Publications, 3 July 2007. Web. 24 June 2009. <http://www.c-ville.com/index.php?cat=121304064644348&z_Issue_ID=11042806071105444&ShowArchiveArticle_ID=11040207074596375></ref>" <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Sacillato, Murray and others formed the non-profit [[Charlottesville Botanical Garden]] to make an official proposal for a Botanical Garden in Charlottesville. According to the group's website it will "incorporate a mission which will expand the interest and value of the facility into a treasure of natural history". As discussions began, the possibility of other sites, including [[Morven]] or the parcel that will be donated for a park as part of the creation of [[Biscuit Run State Park]], was also discussed. <br />
<br />
In 2008, another group, [[McIntire Botanical Garden]], spearheaded by [[Helen Flamini]], surfaced to advocate specifically for a Botanical Garden at McIntire Park. [[Charlottesville Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee]] and city staff were supportive of the idea<ref name=ideablooms> Rosen, Seth. "Idea blooms for McIntire botanical garden." ''Charlottesville Daily Progress''. [Charlottesville] 22 June 2008: ''Daily Progress''. General Media. Web. 22 June 2009.<http://www2.dailyprogress.com/cdp/news/local/article/idea_blooms_for_mcintire_botanical_garden/23872/>.</ref>. <br />
<br />
In March 2009, McIntire Botanical Garden held its first community meeting to discuss plans for a botanical garden at which Mayor [[Dave Norris]] voiced his support for the proposal<ref name=dpmayor>[http://www2.dailyprogress.com/cdp/news/local/article/mayor_pushes_for_botanical_gardens_at_mcintire_park/36890/ Mayor pushes for botanical gardens at McIntire Park], Rachana Dixit, [[Daily Progress]], March 6, 2009, retrieved 28 Jul 2009.</ref>. <br />
<br />
Moving forward on any actual plan for a botanical garden at McIntire is currently{{when}} waiting on the Master Planning Process to begin for the eastern half of the park, which will begin once construction of [[McIntire Road Extended]] commences.<br />
<br />
==Other botanical garden proposals==<br />
[[McIntire Botanical Garden]] is a competing non-profit organization with similar goals. At a McIntire Botanical Garden meeting held Aug. 28 2008, Murray said he would be willing to merge the two groups<ref name=ctmcintiremeeting>[http://cvilletomorrow.typepad.com/charlottesville_tomorrow_/2009/08/botanical_garden.html Botanical garden supporters see future in McIntire Park], [[Sean Tubbs]], [[Charlottesville Tomorrow]], August 29, 2009.</ref>.<br />

==History==<br />
Stony Point Elementary was founded in 1908 and named for its rural surroundings. The original school consisted of four rooms and was heated by wood-burning stoves. Many of the students had to endure up to a four-mile walk until the first "bus," a horse-drawn carriage with a man named Obe Flint at the wheel. The current building was constructed in 1934 in the same location as the original school and until 1953 students from all grades attended. In 1953, Stony Point accepted only elementary- and middle-school-aged students, moving grade 7 students to [[Jack Jouett Middle School]]. Finally, in 1974, grade 6 was moved to [[Burley Middle School]] and Stony Point contained only elementary school students.<ref name="factsheet" /><br />

The '''Rose Hill''' neighborhood was annexed by the city of Charlottesville in 1916. <ref>{{cite web|title=Rose Hill Neighborhood Page|url=http://www.charlottesville.org/Index.aspx?page=2060|author=|work=|publisher=City of Charlottesville|location=|publishdate=|accessdate=September 22, 2011}}</ref> It is home to [[Washington Park]].

==Development==<br />
On July 16, 2012, Charlottesville's [[City Council]] voted to deny a rezoning request made by developer Rosanna Danna LLC, citing a concern that the six-unit apartment complex plan was not in keeping with the area's single-family home preference. Following the decision, the developers stated their intention to pursue single-family homes for rent on the land instead.<ref>{{cite web|title=Council denies rezoning for infill development in Rose Hill neighborhood|url=http://cvilletomorrow.typepad.com/charlottesville_tomorrow_/2012/07/rose_hill.html|author=Courtney Beale|work=|publisher=Charlottesville Tomorrow|location=|publishdate=July 17, 2012|accessdate=July 18, 2012}}</ref><br />

<div>'''Booker T. Washington Park''' (often, and historically, '''Washington Park''') is a heavily used [[Charlottesville]] [[Charlottesville Department of Parks and Recreation|park]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
It sits on land deeded to the city in 1926 by [[Paul Goodloe McIntire]] to be used as a public park and playground. <br />
<br />
During the 2001 [[African-American Cultural Arts Festival]], held annually in the park, the park was renamed and re-dedicated. Originally known as Washington Park, the park was renamed Booker T. Washington Park. Washington was a close friend of Charlottesville educator [[Benjamin Tonsler]], whom he met while in college.<br />

==Amenities==<br />
The park contains 9.25 acres, and a lighted outdoor pool with a wading area and bath house, three basketball courts (one lit), a recreation building with restrooms, and a playground area. A hill within the park drops to a level plain with a regulation softball field, basketball courts, a multi-use field, and picnic shelters.<br />
<br />
The playground and picnic shelter were given to the city by the [[Dave Matthews Band]]. The drainage, seeding and grading for the third phase of the Washington Park renovations were funded by a generous grant by the Perry Foundation.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Slide replacement===<br />
In 2010, Council agreed to spend $500K for maintenance at Washington Park pool. The pool was last renovated in the late 1990’s, according to parks director Brian Daly. The existing water slide has been deemed as unsafe.<ref>Charlottesville City Council, Agenda, May 3, 2010. Department of Parks and Recreation. Washington Park Pool Repairs - $500,000. By Brian Daly. 30 Apr. 2010.

<br />
===Bog garden===<br />
A wooden boardwalk, including a ramp for handicap access, have been added to make Washington Park's bog garden more accessible. Bog plants have survived remarkably well in spite of this season's drought. New plants have been added including both native and non-native bog plant varieties. Future plans include permanent plant labeling, educational brochure and bog garden walks to educate and involve the public in our unique micro-habitat.<br />

<div>'''Swartz Engineering Economics''' is a research firm based in Stuart, Virginia. They were hired by the [[Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority]] (RWSA) to review the demand analysis used in the community water supply plan adopted in 2006. <br />
<br />
==Demand analysis review==<br />
<br />
The Swartz report concluded that a permanent reduction in demand occurred after the 2002 drought, but population increases will drive consumption in the future. The analysis addressed a major question raised by the [[City Council]] about the accuracy of the 2004 demand analysis prepared by engineering firm [[Gannett Fleming]]. The water plan was originally approved in 2006 with a price tag of $142 million but has been the subject of contentious debate over costs and design ever since.The engineering company also concluded that the 2004 demand analysis was conducted using sound engineering principles<ref>{{cite web|title=Demand analysis review finds long term water needs largely unchanged|url=http://cvilletomorrow.typepad.com/charlottesville_tomorrow_/2010/08/swartz-report.html|author=Sean Tubbs|work=|publisher=Charlottesville Tomorrow|location=August 20, 2010|publishdate=|accessdate=September 30, 2010}}</ref>. <br />
<br />
However, the report also recommends that the RWSA establish a new demand goal of 18.45 million gallons a day for the year 2060, a lower figure than that set by Gannett Fleming in 2004.<br />
