RE: SP 2010000042 David Brown Auto Detailing & Repair
TAX MAP/ PARCEL: 062000000076A1
Dear Mr. Brown:
Fax (434) 972 -4126
This letter is intended to clarify the requirements for the lawful operation of a public garage with
auto detailing and repair on Tax Map Parcel 06200- 00- 00- 076A1. Although the Albemarle
County Board of Supervisors took action to allow a public garage on the property, the use may
not lawfully begin until all of the conditions of the special use permit have been met. The
conditions of Special Use Permit 2010 -42 were originally outlined in a letter dated July 13, 2012
(attached).
Please be advised that the following conditions must be satisfied no later than October 15,
2013 or a Notice of Violation will be issued. This deadline may be extended at the discretion of
the Zoning Administrator provided that you are proceeding in good faith and can demonstrate a
justified cause for the extension:
Condition 3 — Compliance with Virginia Department of Health Regarding Water Supply &
Septic System
In addition to being a condition of your special use permit, Health Department approval is
required prior to the County issuing a zoning clearance. According to the Health Department, in
order to get approval you will have to uncover the following components for them to evaluate:
sewer line between the garage and the existing septic tank, the septic tank, and the distribution
box. You will also have to apply for a septic modification permit for the sewer line between the
garage and the existing septic system. For questions about these requirements, please contact
Travis Davis with the Thomas Jefferson Health District at (434) 972 -6270.
Condition 8 — Landscaped Buffer Adjacent to Stream
This condition requires that a minimum 20 foot buffer area adjacent to the stream be planted
with native tree and shrub species at a density specified in the Riparian Buffers Modification &
Mitigation Guidance Manual. The attached concept plan shows the area to be planted
highlighted in orange. At a minimum, this buffer area should be planted with the following,
selected from the attached plant list:
5 canopy trees @ 1 '/2 inch — 2 inch caliper or large evergreen @ 6 feet; and
10 understory trees @ 3/4 inch -1 '/Z inch caliper or evergreen @ 4 feet; and
15 small shrubs or woody groundcover @ 15 -18 inches
A zoning clearance will not be issued until the installation of all required landscaping is
complete. Please contact us as soon as these plantings are installed so we can conduct
a site visit to sign off on this requirement.
Condition 12 — Approval from the Department of Environmental Quality
Approval from the Department of Environmental Quality is not required; however, it is expected
that any activities occurring on site will be compliant with state environmental regulations.
All conditions of your special use permit must be met before the County can issue a zoning
clearance. In addition, if you have not already obtained a business license, you may contact the
Albemarle County Business License Office at (434) 296 -5852 for more information. If you have
any questions or concerns about the conditions of your special use permit, please do not to
hesitate to contact Stewart Wright or myself at (434) 296 -5832.
Sincerely,
Amanda Burbage
