Applicant Signature_ ,.._,; Address ' Phone Number ACTION BY THE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS DENIED APPROVED -- DATL' • - w The applicant makes this request because: Due to the nature of the ter- rain and rock the Health Department required us to install the septic system before the house could be located. It was necessary due to excessive rock to relocate the structure to what was thought to be the side property line in order to comply with Health Department requirements . The Field Engineer misinter- preted the rear property line to be the side line and located the structure 14'5" from the line. Although several inspections were made, it was not brought to light until the Zoning Inspector made his inspection November 7, 1974. Even though the lot is quite large, there is no other location on the lot where the house could he located which would make it suitable from the standpoint of con- struction and being compatible with the required placement of the septic system. We would also like to point out the house nearest the side line will be approxi- mately 45' away (Lot 11 , Block H, Cling Stone Lane) and the house nearest the back line will be approximately 40' away (Lot 13, Block H, Orchard Drive) from the house on Lot 12. It is doubtful , if this variance is not granted, that this lot will be buildable causing extreme hardship on the purchaser of the home, who is a di- vorced mother with three children. ` -.�._,,,,�. • ... .fir-�,,• , : _ .- _�;,..�,,.. . f,. 1 . • • • • 73.

ST.JOHN CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA 22901 296-7138 December 16, 1974 Mrs. Ruth Miller Zoning Administrator Albemarle County Planning Dept. 411 East High Street Charlottesville, Virginia 22901 RE: Definition of "rear yard" (Our File #A.C. 32) Dear Ruth: This is in response to your request for my opinion as to the applicability of the opinion of the Circuit Court of Albemarle County in the case of Bell v. Board of Zoning Appeals (Case No. 71-235C, 1972) to a single-family detached dwelling on a corner lot. In particular, you ask whether the Court in that case held that the rear yard of a lot is to be deemed that portion of the yard opposite the front of the building. It is my opinion that the Bell case does not so hold. The Bell case involved a single large parcel in common ownership upon which were located a number of multi-family residences. These residences were oriented according to the interior, privately-owned accessways rather than to public streets bordering the tract. Because there were no lot lines within the tract and because the structures in question did not front on a public street, it was necessary for the Court to define the term "rear yard" with relation to the front of the building rather than the front line of the lot. The Court stated in that case that "the rear of any building would be defined as that side which is opposite the front, and the rear yard regulations would apply to the side of the building exactly opposite the front. " Albemarle County Chancery Order Book 56, page 357. However, the opinion went on to state that "the foregoing [definition] would be applied to any lot on which there is more than one main structure and that any lot which contains a single structure would be governed by side, rear, and front setback regulations with reference to the abutting street. " The Zoning Ordinance defines "yard, rear" as that portion of the lot between the rear line of the building and the rear s � Mrs. Ruth Miller Page 2 December 16, 1974 lot line. §16-94-2 of the Zoning Ordinance. Reading the latter section in concert with M.6-94-1 and 16-94-3, I interpret §16-94-2 to mean that the rear yard is that side opposite the front lot line. Section 4-7-1 defines the front of a corner to be the shorter side abutting a street. Using this definition of the front lot line, I believe that the Court' s holding in the Bell case mandates a finding that the rear yard of a lot such as the one you describe is that portion of the lot lying between the main structure and that lot line directly opposite the shortest side abetting a street. Accordingly, the orientation of the main structure on the lot is irrelevant. Sincerely yours, .a tilt'-Zcezc=.�Ctc v • / __ Frederick W.
