Snow TAX MAP/PARCEL: 31/26N ACREAGE : .474 acre (20,648 sq. ft . ) ZONING: Rural Areas LOCATION: Deer Run Subdivision off Rt . 743 (Earlysville Area) VARIANCE REQUEST The applicant requests a variance from Section 10.4 of the Zoning Ordinance to allow a single-family dwelling to be located 25 feet from the front property line, a variance of 5 feet(50 feet ) , (see explanation in report text ) . AREA CHARACTERISTICS Applicant ' s property is located on lot number 9 in the Deer Run subdivision. The subdivision is located off Route 743 in the Earlysville area. This area is characterized by moderate residen- tial strip development along Route 743. The topography of lot 9 is level . Homes built on this side of the street in Deer Run average a 35 foot setback from the front property line. ZONING HISTORY Deer Run subdivision was approved on July 15, 1969 (see subdivision plat ) . Lot sizes range from 1/2 to 3/4 acre. AGENCY COMMENTS The Health Department has reviewed the applicant ' s lot for septic drainfield location . Mr. Rice with the Health Department states that the lot is severely limited to a specific site and that a minimum of 65 feet from the rear property line is required for the installation of the drainfield (see attached letter) . STAFF COMMENTS Mr. Snow purchased lot number 9 with the understanding that he could meet all setbacks required by the Zoning Ordinance. How- ever, two issues became apparent that this was not the case. First , the Health Department requirements severely limited the location of the residence on the lot . Secondly, it was originally, explained to Mr. Snow that since Deer Run subdivision was approved prior to the Zoning Ordinance (December 22 , 1969) the setback requirements must conform to the current ordinance. The Zoning staff has since determined that the official date of adoption of the first Zoning Ordinance is April 15, 1968. That ordinance requires a 30 foot setback from the front property line versus the 75 feet currently required. The 30 foot setback requirement holds since this subdivision was approved on July 15, 1969 or 15 months after the April , 1968 official date of adoption. This discrepancy resulted due to State litigation that occurred during that interim and had direct impact on the adoption date of the Zoning Ordinance. Page 2 Staff Report - VA-84-55 Joel F. Snow It is the staff ' s opinion that a hardship exists in this case. Mr. Snow bought the property in good faith with intentions of meeting all zoning requirements. However, due to poor perco- lation of the lot , severe limitations were placed on siting the house. Also, this is not a hardship generally shared by other properties in the adjacent area, nor would approval of this variance cause substantial detriment to adjacent properties or change the character of the zoning district . STAFF RECOMMENDATION Based upon the aforementioned, the staff recommends approval of the requested variance. STAFF NOTE: This case was advertised relative to the 75 foot front setback required by the current ordinance rather than the 30 foot setback required by the 1968 ordinance. I do not feel that readvertisement is required because the salient aspect of the case - to be setback 25 feet from the front property - would remain the same in both advertisements.

A minimum of sixty-five (65') feet is required in the rear of the home site for the installation of drainfield which leaves little distance for setback on the house. The only area that can be used for septic system is indicated on the septic tank permit. Should you have any further questions, please contact me at the Thomas Jefferson Health Dept.
