Re: Board of Zoning Appeals Action for VA-88-94
Tax Map 45, Parcel 56
Dear Sirs:
This letter is to inform you that on February 14, 1989, during
the regular meeting of the Albemarle County Board of Zoning
Appeals, your application for VA-88-94 was approved subject to
Health Department approval of the well and septic.
This variance approval allows relief from Sections 4 . 1. 3 and 10. 4
of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance to decrease the minimum
area required for a parcel not served by neither a central water
or sewer system from sixty thousand (60, 000) square feet to
forty-three thousand five hundred sixty (43, 560) square feet, to
decrease the minimum lot size for the parcels from two (2) acres
to one (1) acre and one and seven tenths (1.7) acres and to
decrease the minimum frontage from two hundred fifty (250) feet to
one hundred (100) feet for each parcel.
If you have any questions, please contact our office.
Sincerely,
Charles W. Burgess, Jr.
Zoning Administrator

STAFF REPORT - VA-88-94
OWNER: Anthony and Charles Dunivan
TAX MAP/PARCEL: 45/56
ACREAGE: 2.7 Acres
ZONING: Rural Areas (RA)
LOCATION: West side of Route 643, _+ .7 miles south
of its intersection with Route 743.
The applicant seeks a variance from Sections 4. 1.3 and 10.4 of the Albemarle
County Zoning Ordinance which state:
"4. 1.3 For a parcel served by neither a central water supply nor a
central sewer system, there shall be provided a minimum of sixty
thousand (60,000) square feet per commercial or industrial establishment
or per dwelling unit as the case may be.
10.4 Area and Bulk Regulations
Minimum lot size 2 Acres
Minimum frontage existing public roads 250 feet"
The applicant at present has two (2) single family dwellings located on
a two and seven tenths (2.7) acre parcel and desires to divide the property
so as to locate each of the dwellings on a separate parcel. In an effort
to accomplish this, the applicant seeks the following variances:
1) To reduce the minimum area for a parcel not served by a central water
or sewer system from the required sixty thousand (60,000) square feet
to forty three thousand five hundred sixty (43,560) square feet,
2) To reduce the minimum lot size for the two (2) parcels from the two
(2) acre requirement to one and seven tenths (1.7) acres and one (1)
acre, and
3) To reduce the minimum frontage for the proposed parcels from the required
two hundred fifty (250) foot measurement to one hundred (100) feet each.
As stated, the owner at present has two (2) single family dwellings located
on one parcel and desires to divide the property so as to provide individual
ownership for each dwelling. In that the dwellings presently exist, the
staff is of the opinion that the granting of the variance requests would
not be of detriment to the adjacent property owners nor would the character
of the district be altered.
RECOMMENDATION
The staff recommends that the variance requests be granted subject to Health
Department approval of septic field locations.
