Charlottesville PC update: Schwarz re-elected chair, update on UVA Housing projectsA slightly less busy week gives us the chance to catch up with items in September that have so far not yet been reported. That includes two meetings that happened on the ninth day of the month at just about the same time.The first is the joint meeting of the Charlottesville City Council and the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority called to order by Mayor Juandiego Wade.There are usually no action items on the agendas of work sessions but Council had to make two appointments to the Charlottesville Planning Commission before that body could meet. The terms of Carl Schwarz and Ross Harness expired on August 31, 2026.Before moving on to business with the CRHA, Council reappointed both to new terms. More from the CRHA in the next newsletter.Schwarz served two terms on the Board of Architectural Review from 2014 to the end of 2021 before being appointed to the Planning Commission beginning September 2022. He continues to serve on the BAR as the representative from the Planning Commission.Harness was appointed to the PC earlier this year to fill a vacancy left with the resignation of Phil d'Oronzio. Harness is a realtor with Long and Foster.The Planning Commission also met on September 9 for a regular meeting and the first act was to elect leadership for the next year. Schwarz had been serving as chair and Danny Yoder had been vice chair.“The nominating committee of Hosea Mitchell and myself met, and we would like to request that Carl Schwarz serve again as chair and Danny Yoder serve again as vice chair,” said Commissioner Lyle Solla-Yates.Two of UVA's affordable housing sites in holding pattern With new chairs in place, Planning Commissioners gave updates including non-voting member Michael Joy who had updates on the University of Virginia's plans to contribute land for affordable housing projects. Just before the pandemic, former UVA President Jim Ryan had announced that up to 1,500 units would be built on three sites.UVA selected a group called Preservation of Affordable Housing to develop a two-acre site at the intersection of 10th and Wertland as well as the Piedmont Housing Alliance to build on a 12-acre tract of land off of Fontaine Avenue known as Piedmont.Both are in a holding pattern and Joy said both projects are dealing with fundamental shifts in what he called the affordable housing industry.“These shifts have been creating funding challenges, both nationally and locally, which is impacting affordable housing development,” Joy said. “The timing for this construction is contingent on the financing and the entitlements, and both of which are currently being worked through.”Preservation of Affordable Housing had submitted plans for a six story building at 1000 Wertland Street that would have 180 units with about 16,000 square feet of non-residential space.The city's Department of Neighborhood Development Services signed off on a development plan but a final site plan will need to be approved. In addition, the project needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the BAR, a body that was not ready to grant one in February 2025.The Piedmont Housing Alliance submitted a rezoning in December 2025 for the Piedmont site for 375 units but has since asked for an indefinite deferral.“Both of these sites are being treated as unique developments and they'll continue to progress on their own timelines,” Joy said.The third site is at North Fork and UVA has selected Bluestone Land LLC as a development partner.“North Fork is a very different site from the initial two properties in terms of size, scale, project phasing, and affordability mix,” reads the website of the President's Council on UVA-Community Partnerships. “We anticipate market rate and workforce/middle-income housing in addition to affordable units at this site.”Previous coverage:* University of Virginia resumes housing initiative for up to 1,500 units, April 30, 2021* UVA announces three sites for affordable housing projects, December 14, 2021* University of Virginia issues first request for qualifications for affordable housing developer, June 10, 2022* Nonprofits have been asked to work on UVA housing projects, February 15, 2023* UVA Foundation seeks firms to build 600 units of mixed-income housing at North Fork, November 26, 2024* A quick update on the UVA Housing Initiative, July 24, 2026* UVA still committed to affordable housing initiative launched during Ryan administration, C-Ville Weekly, July 29, 2026Sponsored message: Panorama Natural BurialAt Panorama Natural Burial, we believe caring for the deceased can be simple, meaningful, and deeply connected to the natural world. As a natural burial ground just outside Charlottesville, we offer families an alternative to traditional burial that honors both the people we love and the land that will carry them forward.Whether you are planning ahead, navigating a recent loss, or are just curious about natural burial, we welcome the conversation. We host regular tours and community events throughout the year. At Panorama we are building new ways of understanding death, land, ecology, ritual, memory, and community. We believe that building community around death care helps us all to live fuller lives. We are open to the public daily 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Come visit!Missing Middle working group updateLast week, the Stony Point Development Group held a required community meeting for the third phase of Dairy Central, a mixed-use project that is just under the threshold required for City Council to approve a special exception permit for additional height. In other words, this project is by-right under the city's 2023 zoning code.That Development Code is the third and final component of the Cville Plans Together initiative, a series of projects intended to increase the amount of housing that could be built across the city of Charlottesville.The Affordable Housing Plan was the first and it called for “soft density” across the city which resulted in a Future Land Use Map and a new zoning which allows for many more residential units without City Council's input. “Soft density” is also known as “missing middle” and the ability is embedded in the Development Code.One example of this in practice can be seen at 1040 St. Clair Avenue in the Locust Grove neighborhood on which a single-family home will be demolished to make way for six units. The 0.213 acre parcel is zoned Residential-A, which allows six units on a lot if half of them are designated affordable. Learn more in this story from August 2026. A final site plan has been approved.A working group of developers, staff, and other interested parties is leading efforts to loosen regulations in order to make it even easier for builders to construct more homes. The Planning Commission got an update on this missing middle work group from Ross Harness who said utilities are a barrier.“It was also noted difficulties that arise from the city having a gravity-fed only sewer system and how sometimes that prevents lots in town from even being reached without having a private pump system that… increases the cost of construction of those properties and long-term maintenance on the private side,” Harness said.Harness said there are many city policies that are preventing more housing units from being constructed such as requiring structures built on sublots needing to be spaced apart. He said the purpose of the group is to identify what developers call constraints.“Next steps for this group are a site visit to some of the parcels that some of the members of the subcommittee have so that we can actually get out there and have a little bit more physical discussion about some of these constraints,” Harness said.The Missing Middle work group is an informal committee, but I asked the city to provide a list of members. This was what was provided on September 10.* Local Builders and Developers: Bob Pineo, A.J. Amigoni, Richard Price, Nicole Scro, Dan Zimmerman, Trent Lawhorn, and Dan Rosensweig* Neighborhood Development Service: Matt Alfele, Carrie Rainey, Dannan O'Connell, Ben Koby, Madelyn Metzler, and Chuck Miller* Public Works: Brennan Duncan, Caleb Smith* Fire: Jason Campbell* Utilities: Cody Tusing, Calvin Chan, Chuck Drennen, and Donald Schrager* City Attorney's Office: J Vaden Hunt and one other staff member* Planning Commission: Ross Harnes and Betsy RoettgerLearn more about the Missing Middle Work Group here and also here on Connect Charlottesville. Quick-builds stuck?In the wake of a pedestrian being killed on Elliot Avenue in October 2024, the City of Charlottesville embarked on a series of projects intended to address safety concerns.After consultation with the Fire Department and the Charlottesville Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee, a list of 67 “quick-build” projects were developed to use low-cost materials as traffic-calming measures. These were to have been completed in 2025.“These projects will rely on existing local capital funds for neighborhood transportation improvements, bicycle infrastructure improvements, and Safe Routes to School Improvements, as well as newly appropriated surplus funds for urgent transportation improvements,” reads the website.Planning Commissioner Josh Carp told his colleagues at the September 9 meeting that the city is far from meeting that goal after having conversations with staff.“We've built about half that list, and the upshot of a long meeting was that there is currently no staffing and no funding available to complete that list or to harden the projects that are already in place,” Carp said.Carp said this will be a topic of discussion when the capital improvement plan budget comes before the PC in November.I've requested additional information and will report back when I can.Previous coverage:* Charlottesville's new transportation planner briefs Council on future process, March 21, 2023* Charlottesville's “quick-build” projects are three-quarters built, August 14, 2025* Deputy City Manager Freas addresses pedestrian fatality on Emmet Street, October 9, 2025* Charlottesville City Council learns of plan to hire at least 42 new bus drivers over next four years, December 13, 2025* Charlottesville City Council briefed on efforts to lower speed limits, prepare new mobility plan, July 31, 2026LUEPC visits the Birdwood MansionIn late 2019, the Albemarle Board of Supervisors and Charlottesville City Council voted to dissolve a public body known as the Planning and Coordination Council which had provided an opportunity for elected officials to meet with their counterparts at UVA at a public meeting.This was replaced by the closed-door Land Use and Environmental Planning Committee which does not include any elected officials and certainly not enough to trigger Virginia's open meeting rules.According to the LUEPC website, the body has not met since May 15.According to Planning Commissioner Hosea Mitchell, LUEPC has met since then but said it was not an update on policy issues.“We went on a field trip,” Mitchell said. “It was a fun field trip. The field trip was to the Birdwood Mansion. The Birdwood Mansion is an edifice that was built between 1819 and 1830.”According to the website, rooms have been available for overnight accommodations since March 2026 at the Ivy Road landmark owned by the University of Virginia Foundation. That organization was created after UVA, Albemarle, and Charlottesville entered into a Three-Party Agreement which established guidelines for planning and development. That also led to the creation of the now-shuttered PACC.Previous LUEPC coverage:* Regional planners get preview of North Fork rezoning, January 12, 2022* Changes may be coming to closed-door planning group, May 10, 2023* Area planners hear from VDOT about desire to coordinate transportation projects, April 16, 2026* Closed-door body briefed on Rivanna Futures, water and sewer upgrade in northern Albemarle, May 14, 2026Two other items from the Planning Commission reports* Schwarz gave an update on a six-story building planned for 915 East High Street which is being developed under the 2003 zoning code rather than the new rules. That means the inclusionary zoning rules do not apply and the number of affordable units will be significantly lower.* Staff in the Department of Neighborhood Development Services continue to work on a second round of “code clean-up” intended to streamline the new rules. The idea is to have a public hearing before the Planning Commission in December. Learn more on the NDS website.No one speaks at Comprehensive Plan public hearingOn Monday, October 5, 2026, Charlottesville City Council will hold a public hearing on an update to the city's Comprehensive Plan. This is not to be confused with the five-year review of the plan which will really get underway sometime next year.The Planning Commission held their public hearing on the current proposed changes to the comp plan on September 9 and heard from Development Planning Manager Matt Alfele who reminded the appointed body that the Comprehensive Plan was last updated in November 2021 and the Community Facilities chapter needs to be updated.“Since then, there have been several amendments, including adoptions of both the Climate Action Plan and the Parks and Recreation Master Plan,” Alfele said. “Since then, there have been updates to city and partner agency Public utility and facility planning maps and projects. It is best practice to periodically update public utilities and facility maps and plans included in the Comprehensive Plan.”For instance, the updated chapter would include a map of the Central Waterline the Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority is currently building.“The scope of the amendment includes adding 2 new strategies, one to adopt relevant RWSA and ACSA plans by reference within the Comprehensive Plan, and one to add future Schenks Branch Sewer Interceptor upgrade project,” Alfele said.The Schenks Branch Sewer Interceptor upgrade is a project mandated by a Virginia Department of Environmental Quality consent decree to replace a pipe from the 1950's. The first phase was installed with the construction of the John Warner Parkway, but the second phase has required negotiations between Albemarle County and Charlottesville.

Capital budgets in both Albemarle and Charlottesville include money in the current fiscal year for planning and funding in FY29 for construction. Each set aside $857,109 this year and $9,676,141 in FY29.Library Director David Plunkett gave an update at the August 24 meeting.“We're talking about this now, the design and community engagement is happening this year into next year,” Plunkett said. “And then construction those 2 years, a new building opens then.”#1131 is also a podcast!Did you notice that to be the case? For almost half of this newsletter's existence, the newsletter was a script for a podcast. When I left the Piedmont Environmental Council after two very unproductive years, I wasn't sure what form my return to journalism would take. But my dream job used to be working for public radio.I learned sometime in the 2000's I was never going to get hired for that sort of job. I'd worked in public radio for a while, and even moved to Charlottesville to take a full-time position. I was insubordinate, didn't listen to authority, and generally refused to be kept in the box my employer wanted me to be in. I stick to myself and maintain my independence because I learned to stay in the box for my next job. The older I got, the less I could afford to speak my mind so I mostly did my job and kept my mouth shut. For eleven years I did the job well, but this is America where people without connections and long pedigrees tend to get to be the ones who tell people to stay in boxes. In any case, paid subscribers, sponsors, and donors are helping me live out this fantasy of being an independent journalist. This is the work I think I am supposed to do, and the work I think about all of the time now. Even when dreaming. I'm not sure I would recommend this profession to anyone, but yet I wish I could explain how satisfying it is to do this work.Now I need to chill before getting back to work and the solution I think is Can.

Generosity doesn't begin with a number, it begins with wisdom. Where does wisdom start? With the fear of the Lord. It begins by recognizing that everything we have belongs to God. We're not owners; we're stewards. As we learn to trust our faithful Father, He begins teaching us to see what He's placed in our hands the way He sees it.

Rachel Yoder reads her story “The Promise,” from the August 10, 2026, issue of the magazine. Yoder is the author of the novel “Nightbitch,” which was published in 2021.

The fear of the Lord isn't simply something we understand; it's a posture we choose. That choice doesn't happen in dramatic moments. It happens in ordinary, everyday life. It happens when we're deciding whether to trust God's wisdom or our own.

Host Teresa Huizar speaks with Dr. Jamie Yoder of Colorado State University about how adversity and trauma increase risk for teens' problematic sexual behaviors and how trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) can be leveraged to expand treatment resources and reduce punitive responses. Yoder describes her clinical background with justice-involved youth and emphasizes that trauma is a major, though not causal, risk factor linked through intermediaries like attachment disruptions, executive functioning impacts, and trauma symptoms. They discuss why trauma has been poorly integrated into PSB interventions due to adult-like assumptions and punishment-oriented systems, then review Yoder's pilot testing TF-CBT across community and residential/justice settings, highlighting feasibility, the need for agency buy-in and readiness, and the role of caregiver involvement. The conversation underscores caregiver shame, clinician bias and support needs, and calls for trauma-informed, rehabilitative approaches and broader systems change.  Time Stamps: 00:00 Episode Overview 01:58 Jamie's Path to PSB Work 05:35 How Trauma Raises Risk 09:10 Why Trauma Was Ignored 13:53 Testing TF-CBT in Settings 18:34 Caregivers and Engagement 22:48 Study Results and Meaning 26:06 Shame as Treatment Target 31:51 Clinician Bias and Support 35:53 Trauma Informed Treatment Plans 40:14 Recommendations and Systems Change 45:33 Closing and Resources Resources:Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Adolescents with Problem Sexual Behaviors: Feasibility and Acceptability for Alleviating Traumatic Stress, Regulation Problems, and Sexual Behavior Problems | Journal of Child & Adolescent Trauma | Springer Nature Link Support the showDid you like this episode?

The goal isn't simply to know that God loves you. It's to become so rooted in His love that it becomes the lens through which you interpret everything else. Then, when the waiting continues, when the diagnosis hasn't changed, when the relationship still needs healing, when the answer is delayed, you don't conclude that God has abandoned you.

For the Epistle: Isaiah 55:1-5, 10-13 The Gospel: St. Matthew 13:1-9, 18-23

Healing isn't always as simple as treating or praying for a symptom. Sometimes, Jesus is restoring something deeper. We need to understand that people aren't made up of disconnected and unrelated parts. We were created by God to be amazingly integrated beings. As we will discover today, God's design was fractured by sin and that is what makes His plan for salvation, restoration, and wholeness so vital. It also means before we can understand healing, we first have to understand what Jesus actually accomplished on the cross. What did He come to restore?

Alycia Anderson welcomes back Nashville photographer, disability advocate, and Let Them Stare creator Angelea Yoder to discuss her advocacy, her VACTERL Association diagnosis, and the liberation of moving from hiding invisible medical differences to sharing them publicly, including a Good Morning America segment that shifted her fears into feelings of acceptance. Angelea explains VACTERL and how it has impacted her life through multiple anomalies and more than 20 surgeries, and Alycia shares they have the same VACTERL-related experiences. They focus on Angelea's first Let Them Stare phase, the photography-based children's book Look at Me: Look What I Can Do, now on Kickstarter to raise $40,000 for self-publishing and printing, with tiers for preorders and donating books to schools and hospitals. They also discuss consent and privacy for disabled kids on social media, and Angelea previews future plans including an adult coffee-table book, a disability-focused modeling agency, and a community hub.

Camp 2026 Thursday Morning - Brooke Yoder Brooke Yoder 06/25/26

Phil Yoder moved with his family to Costa Rica in 1968, when he was a teenager. The early days after moving were difficult. Shortly after his family arrived, a volcanic eruption forced them out of their home. Their business venture didn't work out, and they struggled to find somewhere to live. All of this was in addition to the challenges that come with adapting to a new culture and language. From those beginnings, the first communities of Mennonites formed in Costa Rica. Phil shares the story of those communities as well as some lessons in missions and church planting that he has learned from a lifetime of living in Central America.I Came to Christ.

In July 2015, Mary Yoder, a healthy 60-year-old chiropractor, went to work as usual. Later that day, she began feeling sick. Within 48 hours, she was dead. At first, her sudden decline seemed like a medical mystery. But investigators soon uncovered evidence of poisoning, launching a murder investigation that divided her family and the community. What appeared to be a clear path forward quickly grew more complicated. Detectives uncovered a digital trail they believed tied office manager Katie Conley to the purchase of the poison, setting off a high-stakes legal battle and creating new rifts among those closest to Mary. As people pointed fingers and different theories took hold, the case only grew more complicated, leaving questions about what really happened.   Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

In the summer of 2015, Mary Yoder, a healthy 60-year-old chiropractor, went to work as usual. Later that day, she began feeling sick. Within two days, she was dead. At first, her sudden decline seemed like a medical mystery. But investigators soon uncovered evidence of poisoning, launching a murder investigation that divided her family and the community. As questions mounted, grief quickly gave way to suspicion. Subtle details about Mary's final days, conflicting information about her diagnosis and unexpected decisions in the aftermath left some of her loved ones uneasy. When authorities realized critical findings had not been fully reported, a full investigation began in earnest, raising new questions about Mary's final hours.   Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.
