MacCall, CZA Chief of Zoning, Deputy Zoning Administrator Albemarle County- Community Development 401 McIntire Road, North Wing Charlottesville, VA. 22902-4596 RE: Application for Special Exception and Zoning Clearance Letter Dear Mr. MacCall: Please find attached an application for a Special Exception (the "SE") and Zoning Clearance Letter (the "CLE") regarding the property located at 1311 Stony Point Road in Charlottesville, Virginia (the "Property"). The Property is currently zoned Highway Commercial and per Chapter 18, Article III, Section 24.2.1 of the zoning code, the building's 7,200 square footage exceeds the code's 4,000 square foot limit on using the space for warehouse, storage, and distribution. The specific language in the code reads "49. Storage/Warehouse/Distribution/Transportation; gross floor area of the establishment does not exceed 4,000 square feet per site; provided that the gross floor area of the establishment may exceed 4,000 square feet per site by special exception approved by the board of supervisors." The owners of the Property wish to lease the building to Goodwill Industries of the Valleys ("Goodwill") for their intended use of receiving, sorting, storing, and distributing donated goods for their retail operations in the Albemarle County region. Goodwill operates four retail stores in the Albemarle County region. These four retail stores combine to make the Albemarle County region Goodwill's most successful region in their entire forty county territory. Donated goods are the lifeblood of the retail stores. The Property would be served by approximately six employees at any given time. The building will be renovated and improved for Goodwill's operation. Goodwill's use of the building's total 7,200 square feet for their donated goods operation is critical to their success in the Albemarle County region. Over ninety percent of the revenue generated from Goodwill's retail stores goes directly to helping those in our community that need assistance overcoming a variety of challenges. Thank you for considering this request. Respectfully, Pam, uJ� Peter H.

DO NOT CLICK on links or open attachments unless you are sure the content is safe. Hi Ethan, none of the interior would be public. My understanding is that they would accept donations if people brought them but that would be a car drop-off situation and donors would not have access to the building.
