To the County Engineer:
We are a small business start-up brewery with four employees and are currently starting a brewery and
tasting room at 1740 Broadway St. Charlottesville, VA 22902. The parcel is zoned Industrial. It is our
understanding that in order to occupy this space we will need to submit this Letter of Performance
Standards along with our zoning clearance application.
We have addressed the standards referenced in Section 4.14 and provided the following responses:
Noise
Our operation will not create sound or impact noise levels in excess of the values specified in Section
4.14.1, which I believe is 70 decibels at the property line. We are surrounded by a train tracks on one
side and trees and bushes on three sides. The outdoor equipment we will use is a 9 hp glycol chilling
unit, while indoors we will operate a grain mill and an air compressor, all of which do not have an
unacceptable noise level.
Vibration
Equipment operated by shop does not produce any detectable earthborn vibration.
Glare
Our operation is completely contained within the building. The interior lighting associated with this
operation does not produce glare that is visible beyond the lot line.
Air Pollution
There will be no emission of smoke, odor or gaseous pollutants. The boil kettle will operate on propane.
Water Pollution
No industrial liquid wastes will be generated by this operation. Our operation does not represent a
hazard to water quality.
Radioactivity
Our operation does not require handling of radioactive materials. Therefore there will be no radioactive
emissions or danger to health and safety of person on or beyond the premises.
Electrical Interference
Our operation does not require any equipment that would generate electrical disturbances that would
adversely affect the operation of equipment on any other lot or premises.
Please feel free to call me with any further questions you may have.
