MEMORANDUM
To: Mr. Kevin McCollum, Planner
County of Albemarle, Virginia
From: Mr. Eric Woolley, PE
Woolley Engineering
Regarding: Halifax House (TM 59 P 15A1)
Zoning Clearance: Parking Narrative
This memo supports our request for a Zoning Clearance for the Halifax House by describing the
past, current and planned arrangement of parking on the property. The one (1) acre site is located at
3447 Ivy Road in Albemarle County, is zoned Commercial (Cl) and is located in the Samuel
Miller magisterial district. The Halifax House was built in the late 1790's and was moved to the
current location and professionally reconstructed in 1984.
The Halifax House is located directly adjacent to the DS Tavem at 3449 Ivy Road and both parcels
are owned by the same entity. The recent site plan amendment to the DS Tavem notes a shared
parking agreement and approach to the DS Tavern and the Halifax House. A total of two parking
spaces required to support the DS Tavem site are located on the Halifax House parcel and that
agreement is in process for recordation by deed and plat.
The interior renovation to the Halifax House does not propose to notably change the building's floor
area. The Albemarle County GIS database states that the gross floor area for the Halifax House is
2,343 sf. Eighty percent of this gross area supports a minimum required total of 9 parking spaces
by County Code Chapter 18, Section 4.12.6. When we include the 2 additional parking spaces to
support the DS Tavern, the total number of obligatory parking spaces for office use is 11 spaces.
The maximum number of parking spaces allowed by Code is 120% of the minimum number of
required spaces, and that calculated total of 11 parking spaces would not be exceeded at this time.
Attached to the end of this memo are several exhibits. The first exhibit illustrates the existing site
area of the Halifax House that is currently available for surface parking. The plan exhibit titled
"Parking Exhibit A" illustrates six existing parking spaces in a gravel lot adjacent to the Halifax
House and five parking spaces in a fairly flat grassed area adjacent to the existing driveway. In the
current site condition, the Halifax House can support the necessary 11 parking spaces for office use.
A photograph of the grass area acting as temporary parking, as it has in the past, is included at the
end of this memo.
WooLLEY ENGINEERING 210 5th Street NE (434) 973-0045
Charlottesville, Virginia 22902
WGGLLEY ENGINEERING
The five existing parking space areas that are located with grass surface were previously gravel
spaces in the past. The attached aerial photographs from the County GIS database indicate that the
entire lower area of the site was once a gravel parking lot. An aerial photograph provided by the
previous owners of the property shows the previous gravel parking lot in higher resolution that
supported many more than five parking spaces.
At present, we are preparing a site plan to further improve the Halifax House property. This new
site plan would address the parking by providing a surface that would meet the County's approval
and expand the total number of combined spaces for both the Halifax House and the DS Tavern.
We estimate that the new site plan will be submitted to the County for review and approval in about
one month.
I hope that this narrative, in combination with the attached exhibits have provided adequate
information to support the parking requirements for the Zoning Clearance of the Halifax House.
Please do not hesitate to call with any questions or concerns. Thank you for your time and
consideration.
Sincerely,
Eric Woolley, P
