Patterson Zoning Administrator AMP/st cc: VA-90-12 Inspections Department Planning Department 410 4101 STAFF PERSON: Amelia M. Patterson PUBLIC HEARING: March 13 , 1990 STAFF REPORT - VA-90-12 OWNER/APPLICANT: S. Vance Wilkins, Jr. (owner) ; Kenneth V. Carroll (applicant) TAX MAP/PARCEL: 126/31A ZONING: RA, Rural Areas ACREAGE: 649 . 556 acres LOCATION: Alberene Quarry on the east side of Route 800 at the Nelson County line REQUEST: The applicant requests five (5) variances, to allow subdivision into eight (8) lots which are presently built with single-family dwellings. These variances are: 1. Two (2) lots for reduced building site from the 30, 000 square foot required, to 18, 500 and 20, 000 square feet, for variances of 11, 500 and 10, 000. (Section 4 . 2 . 2 . 1 attached) ; 2 . Six (6) lots for no approved septic area (primary or reserve) and one (1) lot for no reserve septic area. (Section 4 . 1. 6 and 4 . 2 . 2 . 1 attached) ; 3 . Six (6) lots for reduced lot frontage from the 250 feet required to 80 - 240 feet, for variances of 10 - 170 feet. (Section 10.4 attached) ; 4 . Six (6) lots for lot width reduced from the 250 feet required to 80 - 240 feet, for variances of 10 - 170 feet (Section 4 . 6. 1. 3 attached) ; 5. Two (2) lots for side yard setback reduced from the 25 feet required, to 15 - 22 feet, for variances of 3 - 10 feet. (Section 10. 4 attached) ; The homes were constructed over 60 years ago for employees of the Alberene Stone Company. These houses have no indoor plumbing facilities. They are served by outdoor pump to the Nelson County water system. The applicant intends to repair the houses and sell them to the tenants. He also hopes to put water and a sink in each house, with drainage to the soapstone rock 40 feet away. Due to the soil formations and the close proximity of the quarry (40 - 80 feet away) , building sites and septic sites are severly restricted. 1 ! Page 2 Staff Report VA-90-12 S. Vance Wilkins RECOMMENDATION: These homes are non-conforming or "grandfathered. " Should any be discontinued for more than two (2) years, the use would be abandoned. The proposed variances, special use permit and resulting subdivision, would establish these as perpetual and lawful under the zoning regulations. Staff is of the opinion that the location of the quarry, the soil formations and the topography create a hardship to development of this property. However, staff questions if in fact reasonable use has been confiscated. The property does serve some development purpose. These homes currently serve as shelter to families of low income, which serves a goal of the County Comp Plan. However, the housing is provided regardless of whether the homes are rented or sold. Staff has asked the applicant to explore a feasible location for the provision of septic area, even if located offsite or by an unconventional method of disposal. That does not appear financially nor physically possible, according to the applicant. Staff intends to have Health Department comment on this issue of privy versus some method for indoor bathrooms. Proposed Lot #8 can be revised to comply with all Zoning Ordinance requirements, including those for septic. Staff is of the opinion that there is a unique hardship for all the applicable variances for a home, except that for septic. Because that is an issue of public health, staff would hesitate to recommend approval without support from the Health Department. Furthermore, the requirement for septic fields should not be varied completely and for the number of lots. Once the property is subdivided, the individual homeowner with 2 acres has fewer options than a renter or the owner of the 650 acres. Staff recommends denial for cause: 1. The applicant has not provided evidence that the strict application of the ordinance would produce undue hardship; 2 . The applicant has not provided evidence that such hardship is not shared generally by other properties in the same zoning district and the same vicinity; 3 . The applicant has not provided evidence that the authorization of such variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property and that the character of the district will not be changed by the granting of the variance. 4 . 2 . 1 BUILDING SITE REQUIRED No lot or parcel shall have less than one ( 1 ) building site. For purposes of this section, the term "building site" she mean a contiguous area of land in slopes of less than twenty-five ( 25 ) percent as determined by reference to either topographic quadrangle maps of the Geological Survey - U.

The proposed 8 lot subdivision lies along Route 800 near the Albemarle-Nelson County line. (See plat previously filed with Zoning Department) . There presently exists a house on each proposed lot of the subdivision. These houses were built by the Old Alberene Stone Company during the 1920 's and were rented to employees of this company. These houses did not have water or sewage at the time they were built . Over the years these houses have been occupied by employees, or former employees , of the Old Alberene Soap Stone Company, or its successors , the Georgia Marble Company and/or the New Alberene Stone Company. The present residents for each of the houses are as follows : Lot 8 - Mr. and Mrs . Jack (Jimbo) Eubanks and one son who have lived on the lot for 30 years ; Lot 7 - Mr. Windell Mays who has lived on the lot on and off for over 40 years ; Lot 3 - Mr. and Mrs . Linwood Allen who have lived on the property for about 25 years; Lot 5 - Mr. James Allen who has lived on the lot for 15 years; Lot 4 - Mrs . Angeline Eubanks who has lived on the lot for 4 years with her two children; Lot 3 - Mr. Robert Roberts who has lived on the lot for 12 years; Lot 2 - Mr. and Mrs . Harvey Tinnell who have lived on the lot for over 3 years with their three children; and Lot 1 - Mr. and Mrs . Charles Wooten who have lived on the lot for 8 years with their children. It is the intention of the applicant to continue to rehabilitate these houses , and then sell them to the present tenants . • EXHIBIT B The houses on the lots in this proposed subdivision had been in disrepair for a number of years until recently when the applicant, Kenneth V. Carroll, has made substantial improvements to the houses . These improvements include replacing porches and steps which had rotted out in all the houses , repairing roofs that leaked and replacing floors in the houses rented by Mr. Allen and Mr. Tinnell . At the present time the Schuyler Sanitary District (of Nelson County) has brought water to the lots and presently all tenants have frost free outside spigots from which they get their water. It is contemplated that the water will be brought into the houses by the present tenants or the applicant in the near future . Mr. Carroll intends to continue to make repairs , as needed, to the houses , and then sell them to the tenants . He has done this in various other subdivisions in this area of like nature such as Goldmine, Stumptown and Newtown in Nelson County, and the tenants, after becoming homeowners, have continued to improve the houses on the lots . Lots 1 through 6 are not suitable for septic tank absorption fields because of either limited area of suitable soils , soils with very slow permeability, soils with a seasonal high water table, soils with very shallow depths to fractured schist bedrock that is very difficult to auger, or a combination of these limitations according to the report of Steven K. Thomas , Soil Scientist . The applicant requests that the application be approved without any special provision for septic tanks . The houses have been in place for over 60 years, the tenants are in place, these tenants will become homeowners , and at the time they become owners of the property, they may take appropriate action to obtain additional land for drain fields if such action is appropriate. ? , • r' 97 y county, Virginia -;'' grasses and legumes in the cropping system, and productivity for trees on this soil is Seeds and seedlings survive and grow returning crop residue to the soil help to maintain organic high. vegetation is controlled.
