RE: SP2007-00021 Beth Goldstein (Yoga Meditation Studio)
Tax Map 71, Parcel 21
Dear Ms. Goldstein:
Fax (434) 972-4012
On December 12, 2007, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors took action on SP2007-
00021 to allow private school for yoga instruction with classes up to 20 days per month, up to 20
students per class on Tax Map 71, Parcel 21 in the White Hall District. This special use permit
was approved based on the following conditions:
1) The school use shall be limited to a school of yoga and meditation instruction, and the
location and scale of improvements for that use shall be developed in general accord
with the conceptual plan titled "Ms. Beth Goldstein/Yoga-Meditation Studio," prepared by
Studio Elle, LLC, dated 8-2-07, and revised 10/3/07, provided that:
a) Staff approval of a revised landscape plan shall be required. Plantings for
screening of the parking lot, to consist of a naturalistic pattern of multi -species
trees and shrubs, as listed in the brochure titled "Native Plants for Conservation,
Restoration, and Landscaping: Piedmont Plateau," published by the Virginia
Department of Conservation and Recreation, are to extend along the northwest
edge of the parking area from the property line to the existing framed shed
shown on the conceptual plan. These plantings to be arranged in a density that
would mitigate views of the parking area, with a spacing allowing the natural
form/habit of the plant material to be recognized.
2) Maximum attendance on any day shall be eighteen (18) students;
3) No outdoor amplified sound systems shall be operated for the school use;
4) Classes shall take place on no more than twenty (20) days per calendar month. Hours of
operation shall be no earlier than 8 a.m. and no later than 8 p.m.;
5) The use shall not commence and the zoning clearance for the use shall not be issued
until:
a) The Virginia Department of Transportation approves the sight -distance
easements and the construction of the entrance improvements;
b) The Virginia Department of Health approves well and septic systems; and
C) Community Development staff approves a revised landscaping plan for SDP -
2007 -00095 that satisfies Condition 1(a).
Please be advised that although the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors took action
on the project noted above, no uses on the property as approved above may lawfully
begin until all applicable approvals have been received and conditions have been met.
This includes:
compliance with conditions of the SPECIAL USE PERMIT;
approval of and compliance with a SITE PLAN amendment; and
approval of a ZONING COMPLIANCE CLEARANCE.
In the event that the use, structure or activity for which this special use permit is issued is not
commenced within twenty-four (24) months from the date of Board approval, it shall be deemed
abandoned and the permit terminated. The term "commenced" means "construction of any
structure necessary to the use of the permit."
If you have questions or comments regarding the above -noted action, please do not hesitate to
contact Sherri Proctor at 296-5832.
Sincerely,
V. Wayne Cilimberg
Director of Planning
