Box 5074 Charlottesville, Virginia 22903 RE: Hans Gadient Site Pla .ottsvilie Dear Mr. Lambert: Your letter of April 15, 1977 has been received and evaluated by the Zoning Administrator. • It is the ruling of the Zoning Administrator that Mr. Gadient's store qualifies under Article 10 Section 10-7-1 based on the calculations repre- sented in your letter. Therefore a variance on the fifty foot rear setback will not be required. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to call us. Respectfully, 1 J. Benjamin Dick Zoning Administrator JBD:tMcl cc: Robert. W. Tucker, Jr. Director of Planning Attn: Carlos Montenegro Mr. Hans Gadient SANDY H. LAMBERT III ARCHITECT A. I. A. April 15, 1977 Mr. J. Benjamin Dick Zoning Administrator County of Albemarle 414 East Market Street Charlottesville, Virginia 22901 Re: Mr. Hans Gadient Commercial Building Dear Mr. Dick: As the architect for the proposed reconstruction of Mr. Gadient's food store just north of Scottsville on Virginia Route 20, I interpret Section 10-7 of the Zoning Ordinance of the County of Albemarle, page 53, to indicate that reconstruction the fire damaged building as a non- corforming use (in violation of the fifty foot rear yard setback required adjacent to A-1 zoning) is within the law provided that: 1. The replacement cost is seventy-five, or less, percent of the total replacement cost for such building 2. That such reconstruction shall commence within twelve months and be completed within twenty-four months from the date of such damage. The damaged area which resulted from fire represents 78.3 percent of the total building, with damaged limited to above grade construction. The footings and foundations are structurally sound to receive recon- struction. As the value of the footings and foundations is not less than six percent of the total reconstruction cost, the replacement cost is 73.6 percent, or less, of the total replacement cost for the building. Mr. Gadient is proceeding with plans to reconstruct a portion of the damaged building within the required time allowances. If you have questions or need of additional information, please advise me on behalf of Mr. Gaient. Sincerely,, J 1 A111J diu Sandy H. Lambert III cc: Mr. Hans Gadient P.O. BOX 5074 CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA 22903 RECEIVED APR t 1977 err. .�✓ STAFF REPORT VA-77-21 Hans Gadient Tax Map: 120A(1)-4B Zoning: B-1 Acreage: 0.52 Existing Use: Retail Grocery Store Existing Activity The building, before destruction by fire was a retail grocery store. Stock was that of most average food stores. Adjoining this structure is another dealing in automotive supplies (Coiner Parts) . This being on the southern portion of the property. Properties adjoining this parcel on the north and south are also zoned B-1. A-1 property adjoins in the rear of the pro- perty. Proposed Variance The applicant is requesting the Board waive Section 18-3-7(A) , Parking Scenic Highway, to allow parking and accessability in front of the site. VA-76-42 was granted by the Board on February 8, 1977, to allow the building to be 35 feet from the front right-of-way of Route 20 South. Zoning Ordinance Requirements Section 18-3-7(A) of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance reads as follows, "In order to permit adequate screening, no parking shall be allowed within fifty feet of the right-of-way of any designated scenic highway or Virginia byway on land zoned commercial". Staff Comment The applicant has obtained a previous variance from setback requirements of the scenic highway. A parking setback is also required of the scenic highway and staff erroredin not seeing that the applicant also needs a variance from this requirement. The staff recommends approval.
