Torrey Road Lyndhurst, VA 22952 RE: OFFICIAL DETERMINATION OF LEGAL NONCONFORMING USE — "QUARRY OPERATION" — ALBERENE SOAPSTONE COMPANY - Dear Ms. Higgins: In response to your request for a letter of zoning compliance for the active quarry operations, since the 1986 determination, on the Alberene Soapstone Company properties they own or have mineral rights to, I have determined that the quarry operation has continued without a two year cessation on the following current Tax Map Parcels: Albemarle County Tax Map Parcel Acreage 111 8 1.00 (within 8W) 111 8W 118.54 126 21 B 130.10 126 31A2 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A3 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A4 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A5 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A6 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A7 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A8 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31A9 2.00 (shown on plat @ rear) 126 31 H 23.81 126 311 1.00 126 31J 41.59 126 31J1 21.86 TOTAL 353.90 In arriving at this determination, I have examined the documentation you provided from the Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy as well as: aerial photos since 1886; discussions with representatives of VDMME and operators of the Quarry; recorded plats, and; county assessor's records. I am satisfied that the parcels listed have had continued activity on at least a portion of each parcel since the 1986 determination. All of the other parcels that were included in the area covered by the 1986 determination have not had activity which would grant them nonconforming status. Therefore, they would be subject to all current regulations before any quarrying operation could commence on those. Jo Higgins August 10, 2012 Page 2 Therefore, it is my determination that the quarry operation is a legal nonconforming use on the parcels listed in the table above and can continue as long as there is no discontinuance of the use on any of these for a period of two years or more. If you are aggrieved by this determination, you have a right to appeal it within thirty (30) days of this notice, in accordance with Virginia Code § 15.2-2311, If you do not file a timely appeal, this determination shall be final and unappealable. An appeal may be taken only by filing an appeal application with the Zoning Administrator and the Board of Zoning Appeals, in accordance with § 34.3 of the Zoning Ordinance, along with a fee of $240 plus the actual cost of advertising the appeal for public hearing. Applications for Appeal of the Zoning Administrator's Determination are available at the Department of Community Development located at 401 McIntire Road, Charlottesville, Virginia 22902 or online at www.albemarle.org/cdapps.
