RE: SP200800026 Earlysville Service Center Relocation
TMP 31-14
Dear Mr. Wyant:
On August 5, 2009, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors took action on SP #200900025 to allow
relocation of an existing vehicular repair garage use on Tax Map 03100-00-00-01400 in the Rio District.
The use would move from the east side of an 11.833 acre parcel (zoned C-1 Commercial) to the west
side of the subject parcel (zoned RA Rural Areas); the existing garage building currently located on the
property would remain, but the garage use in the building would be abandoned. This special use permit
was approved based on the following conditions:
1. Development of the use shall be in accord with the conceptual plan titled "Special Use Permit
Earlysville Service Center, 4036 Earlysville Road Earlysville, VA 22936", prepared by DW
Enterprises and dated March 23, 2009 (hereafter, the "Conceptual Plan"), as determined by the
Director of Planning and the Zoning Administrator. To be, in accord with the Concept Plan,
development shall reflect the following major elements within the development essential to the
design of the development:
• The area designated for the special use (public garage);
• The size, height and location of the proposed building, including the shed, (no more than
five thousand, five hundred [5,500] square feet/maximum thirty-five [35] feet high);
• The location of the perimeter landscaping and limits of clearing, with the exception of
minimum clearing possible to install drainfields and utilities; and
• The number of parking spaces (maximum forty-six [46] spaces) and general location/
arrangement of the parking spaces.
2. A public garage use on the C-1 Commercial district portion of TMP 31-14 shall be permanently
terminated upon issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for the garage constructed with SP -2008-
25;
3. Additional landscape materials, either replanted from the area to be cleared for the garage site or
new landscape materials, shall be installed in the undisturbed buffer area inside the boundary of
the special use permit as may be necessary to achieve very little visibility between the garage site
and the public right-of-way and adjacent properties, as depicted on Attachment B;
4. A minimum six (6) feet high fence shall be constructed in the location shown on Attachment B
(twenty [20] feet inside the special use permit boundary and outside the seventy-five [75] foot
front setback) to provide an additional buffer for the adjacent property (TMP 31-14H);
5. The sale or rental of vehicles or other motorized equipment is prohibited;
6. Gasoline sales are prohibited;
7. The outdoor storage of parts, equipment, machinery and junk is prohibited. All storage shall take
place inside the storage shed and/or inside the building;
8. All repairing or equipping of vehicles shall take place inside the existing garage;
9. Parking of vehicles associated with the public garage shall take place only in the parking spaces
depicted on the Concept Plan;
10. The hours of operation shall be no earlier than 7:00 A.M. nor later than 10:00 P.M., Monday
through Friday and no earlier than 8:00 A.M. nor later than 1:00 P.M. on Saturdays. These hours
do not prohibit customers from dropping off vehicles before or after the permitted hours of
operation;
11. A maximum of twelve (12) employees shall be permitted on-site at any one time;
12. All outdoor lighting shall be only full cut-off fixtures and shielded to reflect light away from all
abutting properties. A lighting plan limiting light levels at the north, west, and south property lines
and the east boundary of the area designated to the special use permit to no greater than 0.3 foot
candles shall be submitted to the Zoning Administrator or their designee for approval;
13. Approval from the Department of Environmental Quality shall be required prior to issuance of the
Certificate of Occupancy;
14. Approval from the Health Department shall be required prior to issuance of a building permit; and
15. If the use, structure, or activity for which this special use permit is issued is not commenced by
August 5, 2016, the permit shall be deemed abandoned and the authority granted thereunder
shall thereupon terminate.
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;
• approval of and compliance with a SITE PLAN amendment; 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 eighty-four (84) 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
Sherri Proctor at 296-5832.
Sincerely,
Vr ""
