COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE ZONING DEPARTMENT
County Office Building
Charlottesville , VA 22901
Re : Zoning Appeal for the Institute
of Chartered Financial Analysts Building
Dear Mr . Tompkins :
Further to our application for a zoning variance we would
offer the following supporting information :
1 . In the mid 1960 ' s an overall site plan was developed and
submitted to the County of Albemarle indicating the proposed
development of the "Village Green" commercial area to include to
Godine Nesbitt building (constructed in 1966) , the Royer
McGavock/Blue Ridge Travel building (constructed in 1978) , and
the "Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts" which was
proposed and noted as future construction .
2 . Based on the original site plan , utilities were located
under ground and in most cases under the road system, as was and
still is .
3 . Under existing regulations the land on which this
building is proposed would not be able to be developed as an
originally conceived , submitted to the County , and the developer
would lose the benefits of approximately one acre of land and
$125, 000 worth of valuable real estate .
Our application is only asking that this building be allowed
in the H. E .W. /SA Overlay zone , as is the Godine Nesbitt Building ,
the Royer McGavock/Blue Ridge Travel Building , and to a degree as
the approved and under construction , Amvest National Headquarters
facility . The building and parking will be in line with the
existing structures and not closer to the highway .
. A .
Noe ,Nimie
Mr . Michael Tompkins
September 24 , 1984
Page Two
In order to minimize impact in the area , the majority of our
parking is located between the highway and the structure with the
parking lot elevation being 14 ' to 16 ' below the elevation of
Route 250 West . This arrangement will hide most of the cars from
the highway and allow the building to be the focus of any visual
attention .
With the application we define our hardship as being the
loss of both land and investment , as well as the time , effort ,
and planning which commenced many years ago and is at this time
coming to fruition . We , therefore , request your approval of this
variance which is most definetly in keeping with the existing
facilities along this segment of Route 250 West .
Very truly yours ,
C-Qc.,.._,...-6—D ------)'-c-1--"—c--------

STAFF REPORT - VA-84-64
APPLICANT: Boar ' s Head Inn, Inc. ( Institute of Chartered
Financial Analysts)
TAX MAP/PARCEL: 59D(2)/01-17 (part of)
ACREAGE: 4. 530 acres
ZONING: HC (Highway Commercial)
LOCATION: Located on Route 250 West at Boar ' s Head Inn,
between Ednam Lake & Route 250
VARIANCE REQUEST
The applicant requests relief from Section 30. 5. 2.2 of the Albemarle
County Zoning Ordinance to allow a structure to be located 67 feet
from the reserved right-of-way of Route 250, a variance of 83 feet .
Also, relief from Section 30. 5.6.2.2 to allow parking lot to be
located 15 feet from reserved right-of-way, a variance of 35 feet .
AREA CHARACTERISTICS
The proposed site is an open area situated between one of the
Village Green Office Buildings and the Amvest Building presently
under construction. The elevation of the property is approximate-
ly 15 feet below the grade level of highway Route 250. Topography
of the proposed site is of a very slight grade. To the rear of
the proposed site is undeveloped property, which is a part of the
overall parcel.
The surrounding office buildings are served by central water and
sewer. All utility lines are located underground. There is no
unusual features about the proposed site other than it is below
road level as noted prior.
ZONING HISTORY
Variance, VA-76-23, for Village Green was granted for 96 feet to
allow a structure (office building) to be located 64 feet from
the road right-of-way of Route 250 West .
Variance, VA-77-01, was granted a variance to align a building
with an existing building - Village Green.
Variances, VA-83-71 and VA-84-02 were granted for a structure
(Amvest building) to be located 103 feet and 96 feet from the
road right-of-way respectfully. Both variances were granted for
the same single structure.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The Urban Land Use Plan has this area designated for Commercial
Development .
STAFF REPORT - VA-84-64

STAFF COMMENT
By strict application of the Zoning Ordinance, it would produce
undue hardship for development on the applicant and should be
shown.
The property does not share any physical characteristics that
would cause the need for a variance.
The applicant ' s situation is not unique in the fact that the
adjacent properties have obtained variances based on very simi-
lar situations. The setback relief as provided per Section
30. 5.6.3 .1 - for a use where off-street parking facilities are
required to accommodate more than two (2) motor vehicles, the
commission may reduce the building setback to not less than sev-
enty-five (75) feet from the right-of-way of a designated scenic
highway.
In the fact that recurring variances for the same intented use
have been granted on adjacent parcels make it reasonably feasi-
ble that a general regulation amendment to the Ordinance is an
alternative solution.
As per the applicant , the hardship lies in the fit that a
proposed plan was on paper in the early 1960 ' s, which time
the county did not have any site plan review or zoning regula-
tions, and monetary reasons which both do not constitute sub-
stantial grounds for granting a variance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
A recommendation for denial is warranted because the applicant
has not proven a hardship or that it reasonably restricts the
development of the property.
