ST.JOHN DEPUTY COUNTY ATTORNEY February 6, 1989 COUNTY ATTORNEY Mr. Charles Burgess Zoning Administrator County Office Building 401 McIntire Road Charlottesville, Virginia 22901-4596 Re : Albemarle County Board of Supervisors v. Albemarle County Board of Zoning Appeals, et al . (Our File #ACPZ 88-817 ) Dear Charlie: You will find enclosed an Order of the Supreme Court reversing the variance given to Ray C. Beard for 26 additional mobile homes on Cedar Hill Mobile Home Park. I think this Order should be photocopied and distributed to each member of the Board of Zoning Appeals in the package for their next meeting, and either I or Jim Bowling will explain why and how this happened. The point to be made is, that the Board should always place in the record of its proceedings, the findings required by the Virginia State Code. I think also I need to explain to your staff, the meaning of these statutory standards because I think occasionally a recommendation is made for denial when it should be made for approval based on a misconception of the standards.

P. Horne, Director of Planning and Community Development DATE: December 28, 1987 RE: Board of Zoning Appeals This department would like to comment on the following variance petition .to the Board of Zoning Appeals: VA-87-86. This department feels that approval of a variance of this magnitude for the addition to this mobile home park would be clearly in conflict with the purpose and intent of the mobile home park standards contained in the Zoning Ordinance. There has been a history of septic system problems at this and other mobile home parks that were developed at higher densities with septic fields and approval of this variance would be adding to and perpetuating this problem. Expansion or establishment of this or other mobile home parks should meet the requirements of the mobile home park standards in the Zoning Ordinance which was clearly the intent of the Board of Supervisors when they approved those standards. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. JTPH/jmc
