COUNTY OF ALBEMARLE Department of Community Development 401 McIntire Road, North Wing Charlottesville, Virginia 22902 -4596 Phone (434) 296 -5832 Fax (434) 972 -4126 May 5, 2014 Republic Title Service PO BOX 348 Charlottesville VA 22902 RE: LZC- 201400021 - Tax Map 61, Parcel 120J, Owner — MIMOSA LLC ATTN: TRACY OSBORNE 10000 SHELBYVILLE RD SUITE 100 LOUISVILLE KY, 40223 (the "Property ") ( Wendy's) File #: 57724 Dear Sir or Ma'am: In response to your request for a Letter of Zoning Compliance for the above referenced Property, please be advised of the following: • The Property lies within the boundaries of Albemarle County, Virginia and is zoned HC, Highway Commercial under the Zoning Ordinance of Albemarle County, Virginia (the "County "). • The property is developed as a fast -food restaurant known as Wendy's. Such use is a use permitted by -right in the HC district. • The restaurant operates a drive - through window. This drive - through has been part of the original approval of the site plan since 1979 as a by -right use. The current Zoning Ordinance of Albemarle County requires a special use permit to operate a drive - through window in this zoning district. This makes the operation of the current drive - through window a legal nonconforming use for the Property. This nonconformity may continue per Section 6.2 of the Zoning Ordinance of Albemarle County. The Property is subject to the Site Development Plan, SDP1978 -00042 that was approved on 10/26/1979 and has been amended per SDP1995- 00004. The Property appears to have has been developed per the approved plans but a site inspection revealed inconsistencies with the approved plans regarding the landscaping, parking and a building at the rear of the property. There appears to be one additional space at the north end of the first row of angled parking (site plan shows 18 spaces and the site itself has 19 spaces), landscaping has been removed and has not been replaced per the approved site plan and there is a building at the rear, near the property line that is not even shown on the approved plan. It is the responsibility of the property owner to maintain the site as approved on the noted site plan. Changes to the site must be approved though the site plan amendment process. Just removing landscaping without comparable replacements is generally not approved through amendments. County staff understands that landscaping dies and is sometimes not replaced. At this time no complaint regarding the missing landscaping or additional building has been received by this office. Thus, the County will not be pursuing a violation of the site plan at this time. • The Property is not subject to certain proffered conditions, special use permits, variances or other special limitations imposed by the County in connection with the zoning and use of the Property. May 5, 2014 LZC2014 -00021 Page 2 • This office has no record of any open violations for the Property. • To the best of my knowledge all permits and approvals necessary for the construction, use operation and occupancy of the Property have been issued and are in full force and effect. • Copies of site plans and certificates of occupancy may be obtained from this office with a request through the department's Records Manager, Esther Grace, at 434 - 296 -5832 ext. 3823.
