The original request was for 370 units but that was reduced following a March appearance before the Planning Commission.

<hr />
<div>Perhaps someday the old [[Ridgewood Mobile Home Park]] page can just be a historical page talking about the community as it existed prior to the sale to RST. (Right now that page has a mix of content on it.) I think this [[RST Residences]] page makes sense as the best place for all the new development-oriented content. And I assume that RST will eventually come up with a flashy name for the new development when it's time to lease / sell units, so this page will eventually be renamed to reflect that.--[[User:Td 0116 0100|Td 0116 0100]] ([[User talk:Td 0116 0100|talk]]) 20:55, 15 November 2021 (EST)</div>Td 0116 0100https://cvillepedia.org/index.php?title=RST_Residences&diff=60187RST Residences2021-11-16T01:50:34Z<p>Td 0116 0100: there's a page under the name 'park', so maybe this link can go there</p>

<div>'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a planned development in the Places29-North Community Advisory Committee that has been approved by the Albemarle Board of Supervisors.

==Review process==<br />
The request was for a rezoning on 19.5 acres from R-1 to Planned Residential Development to build 254 apartments and 78 townhouses. The original request was for 370 units but that was reduced following a March appearance before the Planning Commission. A deferral was requested after a long presentation coordinated by the [[Forest Lakes Community Association]] in opposition to the project. <ref>{{cite-CCE|title=Albemarle Planning Commission pans multifamily development after focused opposition from neighborhood|url=https://communityengagement.substack.com/p/albemarle-planning-commission-pans|author=Sean Tubbs|work=News Article|location=Charlottesville, Virginia|publishdate=March 5, 2021|accessdate=November 15, 2021}}</ref> <br />
<br />
The developers returned with a project that increased the number of units that would be made affordable to households below a certain income level. In all, 190 apartments will be provided. They also shrank the unit count to 332, with 254 apartments and 78 townhouse units. <ref name="narrative" /><br />

<hr />
<div>==Use of my material==<br />
Anticipating new users, I wanted to explain and how my own writing is evolving. You'll note I've cited both the Charlottesville Community Engagement and the Information Charlottesville sources for this. My main output is the newsletter, which comes out several times a week. However, lots of information gets lost in that document. I created Information Charlottesville to serve as an archive for little bits. I also use Information Charlottesville to offer free versions of content that paid subscribers of the newsletter get to look at first. These are technically the same article. I don't know if it's appropriate to list both or not, but I will continue to do so. Any thoughts?--[[User:Seantubbs|Seantubbs]] ([[User talk:Seantubbs|talk]]) 08:40, 14 November 2021 (EST)<br />
<br />
<br />
I’m unqualified to weigh in with anything more than my own two cents. Since Cvillepedia has a smaller (more detailed?) focus and readership than Wikipedia, it may be expedient for Cvillepedia to be a bit more flexible in scenarios that might be flagged on Wikipedia (e.g., “no original research,” “verifiability,” and “self-published sources”). I gather that the present case is an example of a situation where a Cvillepedia user has authored an article, and two of the three sources cited are self-published sources. I think such cases should warrant careful consideration.<br />
<br />
Given that the user in question has a long history in the local journalism industry, their self-published sources carry significant weight. In a different scenario, perhaps with a different author or a more controversial article topic, this type of scenario (citing self-published sources) might be perceived as a conflict of interest, or “citation spam” (in the Wikipedia parlance).<br />
<br />
The appropriateness of citing the self-published sources might also depend on the content being cited. In this article, it appears that much of the content (as of this writing) could be attributable to the cited VDOT webpage, which I would consider to be a relatively reliable source for this type of information. If the self-published sources were references to additional investigatory work to corroborate the claims presented on the VDOT webpage, or to uncover other facts, then I think those additional sources do add value to the article.<br />
<br />
Slight tangent: I occasionally worry about the sources we use as citations on Wikipedia or Cvillepedia becoming un-recoverable (e.g., if the source was a digital-only source that was subsequently bought out or closed down, with no steps taken to provide an authoritative archive of the content). While there’s archive.org, I’m also thinking that it would be nifty if the more frequently-cited digital-only sources had a mechanism to create a limited-run “library edition” hardbound printed book, perhaps on a bi-annual basis, which could perhaps be stored in a number of geographically-dispersed public and private libraries, as a sort of insurance policy against loss of the text. (I'm remembering many hours spent searching for a 40-year old newspaper article on microfilm as a child...)<br />
<br />
Like I said, these are just my two cents, and I have only a limited perspective on all things Cvillepedia!<br />

:I suppose I could start a new wiki. I have always used cvillepedia to keep track of the items I cover, and the site was created to be institutional memory.

::I mean, my thoughts on the topic really aren’t worth much. (If my thoughts on the matter are worth two cents, then your thoughts are worth like $20,000.) Personally, I think it would be great if you were able to continue using Cvillepedia in that way you described. The only risk would be if other users started editing the pages in a way that severely disrupted your organizational system or thought process.--[[User:Td 0116 0100|Td 0116 0100]] ([[User talk:Td 0116 0100|talk]]) 19:08, 14 November 2021 (EST)</div>Td 0116 0100https://cvillepedia.org/index.php?title=Talk:Sean_Nelson&diff=60152Talk:Sean Nelson2021-11-14T18:36:37Z<p>Td 0116 0100: thoughts on the example presented here</p>

[[Albemarle County]] has accepted donations of drones for public safety uses on at least two occasions.<br />
<br />
On July 6, 2016, the Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted a resolution to accept the donation of a UAS from David King, for use by the Albemarle County Sheriff’s Office. At the Board meeting, Sheriff Chip Harding introduced David King and Chief Charles Werner as members of the county's search and rescue team who had done most of the research on the issue. King and Werner addressed the Board, emphasizing the value of using a UAS to survey broad areas in search and rescue operations, and in disaster response scenarios.<ref>{{cite-progress-bh|title=Drone donated to Albemarle County Sheriff’s Office|url=https://dailyprogress.com/news/local/drone-donated-to-albemarle-county-sheriff-s-office/article_e2ce80b2-d93d-5744-aa66-4ecd3ad6281a.html|author=Lauren Berg|publishdate=July 6, 2016|accessdate=August 16, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Minutes-boardofsupervisors|url=https://albemarle.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=M&ID=444993&GUID=2620EA50-F4F6-4050-95DF-80961610AE84|when=July 6, 2016|documentid=|page=18|accessdate=August 16, 2021}}</ref> A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with specific terms of use for the UAV described it as a DJI Phantom 3.<ref>{{Minutes-boardofsupervisors|url=https://albemarle.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=M&ID=444993&GUID=2620EA50-F4F6-4050-95DF-80961610AE84|when=July 6, 2016|documentid=|page=21|accessdate=August 16, 2021}}</ref><br />
<br />
On September 13, 2017, as part of its consent agenda, the Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution to accept the donation of a UAS from Crutchfield for use by Albemarle County Fire Rescue (ACFR). An associated county staff report indicated that ACFR's potential use cases for a UAS would include search and rescue operations, as well as observation and documentation of firefighting, hazardous material incidents, and other disaster response activities. The resolution to accept the donated UAS described it as a Yuneec Typhoon H Hexicopter.<ref>{{Minutes-boardofsupervisors|url=https://albemarle.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=M&ID=515539&GUID=B6CA4F16-FFDD-40BE-AFC3-81AB77B1B932|when=September 13, 2017|documentid=|page=11|accessdate=August 16, 2021}}</ref><br />

On September 13, 2017, as part of its consent agenda, the Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution to accept the donation of a UAS from Crutchfield for use by Albemarle County Fire Rescue (ACFR). An associated county staff report indicated that ACFR's potential use cases for a UAS would include search and rescue operations, as well as observation and documentation of firefighting, hazardous material incidents, and other disaster response activities. The resolution to accept the donated UAS described it as a Yuneec Typhoon H Hexicopter.<ref>{{Minutes-boardofsupervisors|url=https://albemarle.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=M&ID=515539&GUID=B6CA4F16-FFDD-40BE-AFC3-81AB77B1B932|when=September 13, 2017|documentid=|page=11|accessdate=August 16, 2021}}</ref><br />

<div>An '''Unmanned Aerial System''' ('''UAS'''), or drone, is an aircraft piloted remotely or autonomously, with no human passengers on board. Local organizations and private citizens use drones for a variety of purposes, mostly relating to aerial photography or remote inspection. There were 127 certified remote pilots in [[Albemarle County]], and 50 in [[Charlottesville]], according to Federal Aviation Administration records as of August 1, 2021.<ref>{{cite web|title=Active Pilots Detail - Eastern|url=https://registry.faa.gov/activeairmen/M70_Active_Pilots_Detail_Eastern.pdf|page=17|work=Airmen Certification System|publisher=Federal Aviation Administration|publishdate=August 1, 2021|accessdate=August 16, 2021}}</ref><br />

<hr />
<div>I’m an occasional – or infrequent – writer. I haven’t been here long, but I sense that Cvillepedia provides a space to be a bit more granular and focused, as compared to Wikipedia. It would probably be frowned upon to write a Wikipedia article titled “Dog Parades” that only covers dog parades in Charlottesville. But perhaps such an article could exist in Cvillepedia! (Of course, it might raise some thought-provoking questions for the reader: Are the dogs willful participants? What is the environmental impact? Are such events raising money for a good cause? Are they just a fun a place to “see and be seen”? Perhaps as “man’s best friend,” dogs really do deserve such recognition...at least, if they are well-behaved. But I digress…)<br />
<br />
I’m interested to see how Cvillepedia evolves, moving forward. Given the gradual declines in subscribership to print media, and fragmentation of the journalistic landscape brought about by new broadcast mediums (internet, satellite radio, etc), I imagine that it's harder for local news-reporting organizations to do some of the more detailed or time-consuming projects that might have been feasible in an earlier era. So, perhaps a local wiki like Cvillepedia can serve as a place for contributors to help organize some of the historical context on various topics.</div>Td 0116 0100https://cvillepedia.org/index.php?title=Milton_Field&diff=59669Milton Field2021-08-15T02:22:01Z<p>Td 0116 0100: fixing citations</p>

==History==<br />
<br />
UVa’s University Aviation Club obtained a temporary permit to use the property as an airfield by the spring of 1939. The land was owned by W. D. Haden at that time, and would be purchased by the university only after obtaining a regular airport license from the State Corporation Commission (SCC). At a hearing before the SCC in October 1939, individuals representing nearby property owners objected to the granting of a license, complaining about the noise and low-flying planes associated with the club’s use of the airfield. However, the SCC approved the university’s request for a regular airport license on October 21, 1939.<ref>{{cite-progress-lindsay|title=Corporation Body Gives Permission For Airport Here|url=https://search.lib.virginia.edu/sources/uva_library/items/uva-lib:2758204|pageno=1|printdate=October 21, 1939|accessdate=August 14, 2021}}</ref><br />
<br />
The [[University of Virginia]] held a dedication ceremony for the airport on the afternoon of April 28, 1940.

<div>The '''Regional Public Safety Firearms Training Center''' (commonly referred to as the Regional Firearms Training Center) is an indoor firearms range constructed jointly by the [[University of Virginia]], [[Albemarle County]], and [[Charlottesville]] for police training activities. The 19,054-square-foot building is located on a portion of the [[Milton Field]] property, owned by the [[University of Virginia]]. The building includes two 50-yard firing ranges and a classroom with sufficient space to practice hand-to-hand combat, de-escalation, and other interpersonal scenarios. The building's design included features to assist in managing lead and heavy metal dust and debris, including air filtration systems and weapons cleaning areas. Local officials held a dedication ceremony for the completed building on May 12, 2016, and expected that the three jurisdictions’ police officers would be able to begin using it by June 2016. <ref>{{cite-cville|title=Partners in arms: City, county and UVA cut ribbon on indoor firing range|url=https://www.c-ville.com/partners-arms-city-county-uva-cut-ribbon-indoor-firing-range|author=Lisa Provence|publishdate=May 17, 2016|accessdate=August 13, 2021}}</ref> <ref>{{cite-progress-bh|title=Area’s police forces get ‘the perfect environment to shoot in’|url=https://dailyprogress.com/news/local/area-s-police-forces-get-the-perfect-environment-to-shoot-in/article_d9c0c65e-18ae-11e6-95ef-fbdd933814a2.html|author=Lauren Berg|publishdate=May 12, 2016|accessdate=August 13, 2021}}</ref> <ref name="cbs19-opening">{{Cite web|url=https://www.cbs19news.com/story/41894520/gun-firing-range-ready-for-use-in-albemarle-county|title=Gun firing range ready for use in Albemarle County|publishdate=May 12th, 8:49 PM EDT 2016|publisher=WCAV-TV CBS19|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|accessdate=March 16, 2021}}</ref><br />

An initial decision to locate a public safety firing range outdoors in [[Keene]] was overturned by the [[Board of Supervisors]] in August 2013 after an outcry from southern residents of the county. $2.9 million in funding for the project was granted to the county from the Virginia attorney general's office.<ref>{{cite-progress-bh|title=State gift will go a long way toward police firing range|url=http://www.dailyprogress.com/news/local/state-gift-will-go-a-long-way-toward-police-firing/article_6b68f882-6b56-11e3-9d11-001a4bcf6878.html|author=J.

<div>The '''Senior Center''', known as The Center, or specifically as The Center at Belvedere, is a non-profit organization that hosts events, classes, and other activities primarily oriented towards people over the age of 50.

The director is [[Peter Thompson]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The University League - now the [[Junior League of Charlottesville]] -- established the center in 1960 in order to provide educational and enrichment activities for people over the age of 50. The facility was the second of its kind in Virginia and today is the longest continually operated senior center in Virginia.<br />
<br />
The Senior Center first operated in rented space at 301 East Market Street before quickly moving to another rented space at 101 East High Street. In 1963, the agency became independent of the Junior League. In 1982, the Center moved into the Central Library on Market Street, a space it occupied until the Jessup family made space near their Pepsi Cola bottling facility available at half-price. The new 17,000 square foot facility on Pepsi Place opened on September 11, 1991. <br />
<br />
In November 2002, the Senior Center became accredited by the National Institute of Senior Centers, the first such facility in Virginia to receive that designation<ref>"History of the Senior Center Inc." Welcome to the Senior Center. Web. 16 Dec. 2009. <http://seniorcenterinc.org/about/history.shtml>.</ref>. It achieved accreditation again in 2007 and 2012 and is one of only six senior centers in America to have reached this standard three times. It received the International Council on Active Aging/NuStep Pinnacle Award in 2009 as America’s premier community center for all aspects of senior wellness; physical, intellectual, social, emotional, environmental, spiritual, and vocational. <br />
<br />
==Move to Belvedere==<br />
The Center moved to a larger facility at 540 Belvedere Boulevard in the spring and summer of 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a grand opening ceremony was postponed.<ref>{{cite-progress|title=Area gets creative in trying to stay connected to seniors|url=https://dailyprogress.com/news/local/area-gets-creative-in-trying-to-stay-connected-to-seniors/article_274626b7-aa1f-5270-a05a-e37256ae8457.html|author=Allison Wrabel|publishdate=March 28, 2020|accessdate=April 25, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite-progress|title=COVID numbers lead The Center at Belvedere to go all-online|url=https://dailyprogress.com/news/local/covid-numbers-lead-the-center-at-belvedere-to-go-all-online/article_ba3f0c92-5ff2-11eb-88c4-ebd7ecf83074.html|author=Staff Reports|publishdate=January 28, 2021|accessdate=April 25, 2021}}</ref><br />

Planning and fundraising for the move to [[Belvedere]] took many years. Officials at The Center initially considered multiple alternative locations, and in 2009, The Center (then known as The Senior Center) received a special-use permit pertaining to a plan that would have moved The Center to a facility owned by [[ACAC]] at 200 Four Seasons Drive.<ref>{{cite-progress-mg|title=Senior Center's plan to relocate gets early OK|url=https://dailyprogress.com/news/senior-centers-plan-to-relocate-gets-early-ok/article_bfed0dac-2441-50b3-a7d4-85d7aa45bd81.html|author=Brandon Shulleeta|publishdate=July 22, 2009|accessdate=April 25, 2021}}</ref> However, by October 2012, The Center had instead decided to construct a new building in the [[Belvedere]] neighborhood. Fundraising in support of the project, estimated at that time to cost $20 million, officially began with an event on October 9, 2012. Plans for The Center included an indoor walking track, gymnasium, exercise rooms, auditorium, and classrooms in a 60,000-square-foot building.<ref name="dp20121009">{{cite-progress-bh|title=Senior Center unveils plans for new, larger facility|url=https://dailyprogress.com/news/senior-center-unveils-plans-for-new-larger-facility/article_431d6741-af33-5129-ac42-826bab81f459.html|author=Aaron Richardson|publishdate=October 9, 2012|accessdate=April 25, 2021}}</ref> [[Bushman Dreyfus Architects]] handled the project’s design, with support from Lifespan Design Studio, of Ohio.<ref>{{cite web|title=Aging gracefully|url=https://issuu.com/cvilleweekly/docs/abode_feb_march_2021|author=Shea Gibbs|work=ABODE – February / March 2021 Issue|page=15|publisher=C-VILLE Weekly|location=Charlottesville, Virginia|publishdate=February 2021|accessdate=April 25, 2021}}</ref> <br />

The topographic map in this graphic is a 1939 edition U.S. Geological Survey 1:62500-scale Quadrangle for Charlottesville, VA, reprinted in 1950 with corrections. The Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport Authority land (shaded pink) is based on tax parcel information from Albemarle County as of January 2021, but such information is not a legal description, and is only an approximation of the actual property boundaries.<br />
