Dear Ms. Marzan
On July 21, 2021, the Board of Supervisors took action on your Special Use Permit on Tax Map Parcel Numbers 12300-00-
00-017B0 and 12300-00-00-02600 in the Scottsville District. The Special Use Permit was approved by the Board’s adoption
of the attached Resolution and Conditions.
Please be advised that although the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors took action on the project noted

received and conditions have been met. This includes:
• compliance with conditions of the SPECIAL USE PERMIT; and
• approval of a ZONING COMPLIANCE CLEARANCE.
Should you have questions regarding the above-noted action, please contact me.
Sincerely,
