DO NOT C links or open attachments unless you are sure the content is safe. Hi Rebecca. Thanks again for your very kind support of this process on our behalf thus far. Apologies for my tardiness last week — we had both Trustees Meetings and Alumni Weekend at Blue Ridge and I am just now digging out. I'm off to Saudi Arabia and the UAE tomorrow for Blue Ridge for eight days ... I think Kate and I can work on this while I am away and we will do our best to do just that! Thanks again — see you soon. Cheers. Franklin D.

There are a couple provisions that affect your proposal and would require modification through the special exception process. I know you said you would confirm your side property line but am including the code section below in case the side setback is less than 125'. §18-5.1.48(2)(v) Minimum yards -The minimum front, side, and rear yard for parking and for structures used in whole or in part to serve a homestay shall be 125 feet from any abutting lot not under the same ownership as the homestay use. This can be reduced under 5.1.48(i)(1(ii). §18-5.1.486)(1)(iii) -Number of guest rooms -The limit is two guest rooms. The number of guest rooms may be increased from 2 to 5 with approval of a special exception under 5.1.48(i)(1)(i). Please provide a narrative that addresses the review criteria in the ordinance (below). (2) Special exceptions may be granted after notice to abutting property owners upon consideration of the following: (i) There is no detriment to any abutting lot; and (ii) There is no harm to the public health, safety, or welfare. once we receive a complete application, we can request the item be scheduled for a Board of Supervisors agenda. Here are the remaining items needed: Second form of documentation of residency at 4411 Stony Point Road Narrative (required) Plat/survey of your parcel showing distances of house to property lines (required) Neighbor support letters, etc (optional) Please let me know if you need anything else and have a good weekend.
