SP202200004 Scottsville Substation Expansion Project
Special Use Permit Condition
Development of the use must be in general accord (as determined by the Director of Community
Development and the Zoning Administrator) with the conceptual plan entitled "138 kV Proposed
Station Expansion Landscape Plan," prepared by American Electric Power, and last revised 8-10-22.
To be in general accord with the plan, development must reflect the location of the substation, related
infi•astructure, new screening vegetation, and vegetated areas to remain (shaded gray on the plan) as
shown on the plan.
Minor modifications to the plan that do not conflict with those essential elements may be made to
ensure compliance with the Zoning Ordinance.
