CITY OF CHARLOTTESVILLE <br />Office of the City Manager <br />• P.O. Box 911 • Charlottesville, Virginia • 22902 <br />Telephone (804) 970-3101 <br />Fax (804) 970-3890 <br />December 8, 2000 <br />RE: J. S. Barnett and Frances D. Barnett <br />City Tax Map 59-371 and 59-372 <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />J ecc h vt>✓ <br />By Ordinance approved by the Charlottesville City Council on October 16, 2000, the City <br />authorized the conveyance by Quitclaim Deed of an 11,975 square foot parcel of land <br />("Parcel A") along the east side of Sixth Street, S.E. This parcel was conveyed by Quitclaim <br />Deed dated November 27, 2000, now recorded in Deed Book 795, page 573, in the Clerk's <br />Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Charlottesville. <br />Both the Ordinance and the Quitclaim Deed required the Barretts, or their successors in <br />title, to maintain appropriate landscape screening measures along an approximately 80 foot <br />portion of the Sixth Street side of said Parcel A. Such plantings were at a minimum to consist of <br />seven (7) Yoshino cherry trees, 8-10 feet in height or, according to the terms of the Quitclaim <br />• Deed, "such other substitute plantings as may be approved by the City." <br />Prior to the execution of the Quitclaim Deed, the Barnetts proceeded to comply with this <br />landscape screening requirement. However, because the mentioned Yoshino cherry trees were <br />then unavailable, the Barnetts caused to be planted five (5) Bradford pear trees as substitute <br />plantings. <br />By this letter, the City hereby evidences its approval of the five (5) Bradford pear trees as <br />reasonable and appropriate substitute plantings in compliance with the referenced landscape <br />screening requirement. <br />cc: W. Clyde Gouldman, II <br />0 <br />City of Charlottesville, Virginia <br />By: 116 <br />G . O'Connell, City Manager <br />
