L)j1�'Qja( l a- Receipt # I (D Ck# -_l �__ By November 20, 2020 Justification for Special Exception Dear Board of Supervisors, I hereby request a homestay permit to provide short-term rental of one set of 4-room in my property at 126 Fontana Ct, Charlottesville, Va, Parcel ID: 078E0-00-12600. My request is based on the following reasons: 1) I do not rent separate rooms to different individuals but to only one family at a time. Usually families visit Charlottesville for special occasions such as graduation of their children, attending a wedding or visiting the historic sites in Charlottesville and the surrounding areas and local wineries. Most of the families that request the use of my residence for such occasions have 3-8 members. 2) While I live in a separate part of the house, it would be difficult to limit any part of the 4- room area to a family that want to feel comfortable in a private setting. 3) 1 have strict rules for my guests and the restrictions are posted on the Airbnb platform and in a follow up message to the gusts prior to their arrival reminding them of the restrictions. Notably, I underscore and demand the total respect to the neighborhood. I also make it clear that guests are not allowed to hold any party or events. 4) To limit outdoor activities: a) guests do not have access to the community gym b) I had closed access to the whirlpool in the back of the house c) I had removed BBQ grill and the fire pit. 5) Given that I verify the background of each guest before approval, my guests have not caused any disturbances to the peace of the neighbors and the community. 6) Short-term rental is a much needed supplemental income for me while staying at home, particularly during the current economic crisis that we all are experiencing due to the pandemic. 7) 1 provide ongoing job for a cleaning crew of 4 on a regular basis. While this crew has lost most of their cleaning jobs due to huge reduction in public demand for their services due to Covid-19, 1 am happy that I can provide them a much needed income. I look forward to your approval of this request for special exception. Regards, ��� Dr. Fraidoon H v izS
