The development of the site shall be in general accord with the "Conceptual Site Plan" prepared for Nortonsville Church of God by TCS Engineering Co., LLC, dated April 3, 2009 (hereinafter, the "Conceptual Plan"), provided that the maximum building size shall be governed by Condition 2 rather than the Conceptual Plan. Minor variations from the Conceptual Plan may be approved by the Zoning Administrator in conjunction with site plan review to ensure compliance with the Zoning Ordinance. The arrangement of parking spaces may be altered so that County standards for safe and convenient access may be met. The total number of parking spaces shall be in accord with a parking study approved by Zoning staff before approval of the preliminary site plan for this use. 2. The footprint of the building identified on the Conceptual Plan as "Proposed Multi -Purpose Building" shall not exceed 14,500 square feet. 3. A dwelling used by the church's staff, located within the church, may be permitted as an accessory use. 4. All structures shall meet commercial setback standards as set forth in Section 21.7(b) of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance. The tot lot is not subject to this condition. 5. A fire -suppression water supply meeting the approval of the Albemarle County Fire/Rescue Department shall be required before approval of the preliminary site plan for this use. 6. Health Department approval of well and/or septic systems. 7. 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 all property lines to no greater than 0.3 foot candles shall be submitted to the Zoning Administrator or their designee for approval. 8. There shall be no day care center or private school on site without approval of a separate special use permit; 9. If the use, structure, or activity for which this special use permit is issued is not commenced within sixty (60) months after the permit is issued, the permit shall be deemed abandoned and the authority granted there under shall thereupon terminate. 10. The church should work out an agreement with the adjoining neighbor(s) to provide some sort of screening be it a fence, shrubbery, trees, or whatever is acceptable. The screening is to reduce the noise and trash. On the lower side closest to Parcel 96H, all of the fencing and landscaping, if the neighbors decided it was needed, would be on the church property. Note: The fencing and other screening should be provided for those neighbors that make accommodations with the church to have it. Please be advised that the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors will review this petition and receive public comment at their meeting on June 10, 2009. If you should have any questions or comments regarding the above noted action, please do not hesitate to contact me at (434) 296-5832. Sincerely, Scott Clark Planner Planning Division SC/SM cc: Nortonsville Church Of God 1505 Simmons Gap Road Dyke Va 22935 File POLICY SUBMISSION OF MATERIALS FOR ZONING APPLICATIONS It is the Board's preference that a public hearing should not be advertised until all of the final materials for a zoning application have been received by the County and are available for public review. To achieve this preference, applicants should provide final plans, final codes of development, final proffers, and any other documents deemed necessary by the Director of Community Development, to the County no later than two days prior to the County's deadline for submitting the public hearing advertisement to the newspaper. Staff will advise applicants of this date by including it in annual schedules for applications and by providing each applicant a minimum of two weeks advance notice of the deadline. If the applicant does not submit the required materials by this date, the public hearing shall not be advertised unless the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director of Community Development that good cause exists for the public hearing to be advertised. If not advertised, a new public hearing date will be scheduled. If the public hearing is held without final materials being available for review throughout the advertisement period due to a late submittal of documents, or because substantial revisions or amendments are made to the submitted materials after the public hearing has been advertised, it will be the policy of the Board to either defer action and schedule a second public hearing that provides this opportunity to the public or to deny the application, unless the Board finds that the deferral would not be in the public interest or not forward the purposes of this policy. Final signed proffers shall be submitted to the County no later than nine days prior to the date of the advertised public hearing. This policy is not intended to prevent changes made in proffers at the public hearing resulting from comments received from the public or from Board members at the public hearing. This Zoning Policy will be included in the Board's Rules of Procedure for adoption each year, so that the policy can be re-examined annually.
