Zoning Rural Areas <5 Acres, Required Setbacks, Tax Map Number 44-12G0, Fray Division 1/Lot 1 Subject: Homestays Permit Application by Bianca & Tom King 754 Woodlands Road, Albemarle County Dear Community Development Department, County of Albemarle: We are submitting the accompanying Homestay Permit Application, to include a special exception modification request for the <5 acre 125' setback stipulation, for your good consideration and hopeful approval. Background During early 2018 we started interior renovation on an unused portion of our original residence with the idea of offering short and long term (over 30 days) lodging for visitors/new arrivals to Albemarle County. As empty nesters with an eye towards retirement, downsizing in place, keeping busy and meeting/hosting new folks, a year of investment/remodeling/upgrade work got underway. In consideration of our request for a special exception to the <5 acre 125' setback stipulation we offer: 1. The special exception to the 125' setback underage would apply to the front south/west property corner (red highlighted corner) where two of the seven adjoining properties and our property share boundaries. 2. The sighting of our residence provides for complete privacy from neighbors and the county road (Woodlands Rd/SR 676) off of which our 600 foot driveway runs north to our residence and approximately 3.3 acres of field, pond and woods. 3. The nearest and only visible neighbor/residence (Lot 2) is over 600 feet from our residence and is directly on Woodlands Rd. All other bordering neighbors/residences are over 800' away and are not visible due to woods and tree lines. 4. Our residence and detached garage parking is more than ample with multiply areas and turn arounds as shown on accompanying drawings. There is dedicated parking for visiting guests. We thank you in advance for your thoughtful consideration on our request. Sincerely, Bianca & Tom King • • PF APPLICATION FOR A SPECIAL EXCEPTION N(Request for a waiver, modification, variation ❑ Variation to a previously approved Planned or substitution permitted by Chapter 18 = $457 Development rezoning application plan or Code of Development = $457 OR ❑ Relief from a condition of approval = $457 Provide the following 3 copies of a written request specifying the section or sections being requested to be waived, modified, varied or substituted, and any other exhibit documents stating the reasons for the request and addressing the applicable findings of the section authorized to be waived, modified, varied or substituted.
