Huja

In his 33 years as head of Community development in Charlottesville Huja made vast improvements in the quality of life in the Woolen Mills Neighborhood. His work in preservation helped maintain the fabric of our community. His vision to introduce citizens to the Rivanna River recreationally via a trail and park has been transformative. His traffic calming actions made walking safer. He was good to us.

Huja wasn’t afraid of the 4 way stop. That signage put an end to drag racing on Chesapeake and Market.
Signage isn’t foolproof.
