RE: Board of Zoning Appeals Action
VA-98-31 —Tax Map 102, Parcel 27C
Dear Ms. Perkins:
This letter is to inform you that your variance application, VA-98-31, was heard by the
Albemarle County Board of Zoning Appeals on Tuesday, January 5, 1999. The Board ruled
(4:1) to approve your request to reduce the front setback from 75 feet to 50 feet to allow a
freestanding canopy over two new gas pump islands and to reduce the front setback from 75 feet
to 58 feet to allow one of the two proposed gas pump islands under the canopy with the
following conditions:
Regarding the gas pump -
1. Removal of the existing canopy shall occur prior to issuance of any building permits (or
"sub-permits") related to the new gas pumps or canopy.
2. Zoning Administrator approval of additional vegetative screening as required under Section
32.7.9.8(c) between the new pump islands and the single family dwelling to the south.
3. Compliance with the maximum lighting spillover (0.5 foot-candle) as required under Section
4.17.4(b) even if the luminaires emit less than 3000 lumens. (Our previous lighting
regulations controlled spillover from any light source regardless of the number of lumens.
Currently, the ordinance only regulates spillover if the initial lumen rating is 3000 or greater).
4. All light fixtures must be full cutoff luminaires.
Regarding the canopy-
5. ARB approval of the canopy materials, colors and design, such that it will not be detrimental
to adjacent properties or the character of the district.
6. This variance is for the 24' x 46' canopy structure requested in this file only. Any addition to
the canopy, even behind the 75' setback, will require amendment to this variance.

7. Compliance with the maximum lighting spillover (0.5 foot-candle) as required under Section
4.17.4(b) even if the luminaries emit less than 3000 lumens. (Our previous lighting
regulations controlled spillover from any light source regardless of the number of lumens.
Currently, the ordinance only regulates spillover if the initial lumen rating is 3000 or greater).
8. All light fixtures must be full cutoff luminaries.
This approval allows relief from Section 10.4 of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance to
reduce the front setback as stated above. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to
contact me.
