RE: Rehearing Request for VA-98-05
Last month you approved VA 98-05 for International Cold Storage on tax map
i1h09 n near
H overing ille. They
had requested variances to make their existing building and parking comply
ct
setbacks They needed these variances beca se they have also petitioned the Board of Supervisors to
rezone the property to the HI zoning district t` •t allows their basic use Their use has been
nonconforming to the LI district that the count put on the property when the zoning ordinance was
adopted in 1980 Their ultimate reason is an xpansion of the existing building where the new building will
meet the HI setbacks.
Attached is a letter from attorney, John Little, epresenting an adjacent property owner to ICS, Otto
ance request based on what he feels were
Schultz Mr.items
that were incorrectly presented to you on theapplication, in the staff report and att a he
number of items
public hearing
and
u feel
You need o read ta or mayhave been different if is tieing the facts represented by decide if
IL tttlle had been our
decision would be affected
presented at the original hearing.
The only information that I can offer regardin. the information in Mr Little's letter is that the county's 1980
aerial photo of this site clearly shows the she. used to house insulation foam tanks on the back of the
main building that is claimed to have been bu It after 1980. Although the surface of the area of the
concrete slab cannot be conclusively identified in the photo, the cleared area appears to be the same as in
the 1990 photo and it is very"white", as if it ere concrete, not asphalt, grass or any other surface that
would photograph darker. A copy of the photo is attached.
Please be prepared to discuss this and mak= a decision to rehear or not to rehear at your next meeting,
May 5, 1998.
