Dear Ms. Robinson;
In response to your Application for a Letter of Zoning Compliance, this office has
researched your request and offers the following answers to your questions regarding
the referenced parcel.
• The property is zoned C -1 Commercial. The parcel is located within the Airport
Impact Overlay District. There are no proffers associated with this parcel.
• The uses allowed by right and by special use permit in the C -1 Commercial
District are attached.
• All available County records show that all of the improvements located on this
parcel comply with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and the approved
site plan. The nursing home and common building were built in 1980 and would
have met the Zoning Ordinance requirements in effect at that time. An inspection
of this site was performed on April 19, 2012 and no violations were observed.
• There are no proffered conditions of a continuing nature or any unfulfilled proffers
associated with this parcel.
• County records do show that there was a Zoning Violation on this parcel in
October, 2007. The property was not in compliance with the approved site plan.
The property was brought into compliance with the site plan and the violation is
now abated.
