RE: SP 2004-051 Free Union Church of the Brethren
Tax Map 29 Parcels 57, 58, and 59B
Dear Mr. Joslin:
On June 1, 2005, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors took action on SP 2004-
051 to allow an expansion of an existing church, Free Union Church of the Brethren, in
accordance with Section 10.2.2(35) of the Zoning Ordinance which allows for churches
on Tax Map 29 Parcels 57,58, and 59B in the Whitehall Magisterial zoning district. This
special use permit was approved based on the following conditions as recommended by
the Planning Commission:
1. The site shall be developed in general accordance with the conceptual plan
entitled "Free Union Church of the Brethren Concept Plan ,n revised April 22,
2005, including the note relating to combining the parcels;
2. The area of assembly shall be limited to the existing ninety (90)-seat sanctuary;
3. There shall be no day care center or private school on site without approval of a
separate special use permit;
4. Construction of the proposed addition shall commence within four (4) years or
this special use permit shall expire; and
5. The applicants shall secure a VDOT construction permit for the modified
entrance from Route 601.
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;
. compliance with the SITE PLAN waiver; 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 forty-eight (48) 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 Keith Lancaster at 296-5832.
Sincerely,
