RE: Rio Hill Shopping Center
Tax Map 45, Parcel 94A
The First Interstate Charlottesville Limited Partnership (Owner)
Dear Ms. Hoy:
You have asked for a letter that provides an analysis of the zoning and other
information regarding the referenced property. This letter is based on a review of
our records and an inspection of the site.
The property is zoned Planned District- Shopping Center- PD -SC and is in the
Entrance Corridor overlay district - EC and the Airport Protection overlay district -
AIA. The property is developed as a shopping center which contains a variety of
uses that are permitted by right in the C-1, C -O and HC districts, all of which are
permitted by right in the PD -SC district.
The Board of Supervisors approved the rezoning of the property to PD -SC in
1987 subject to modifications and conditions. A copy of the approval letter
associated with ZMA-1987-007 is enclosed.
The Board of Zoning Appeals approved a variance in 1993 to allow the height of
the wall sign for Kroger's to increase from 20 to 27 feet. A copy of the action
letter for VA -1993-004 is enclosed.
The property is developed in accord with the application plan approved with the
rezoning and the site development plan first approved on March 24, 1988. The
site plan has been revised several times since. These plans indicate the current
buildings comply with height, setback, lot coverage, parking, and FAR
requirements for the PD -SC district.

The property was inspected for zoning compliance on April 17, 2006. One site
plan violation was identified. There are a number of storage containers located at
the rear of the facility that are not shown on any site plan. These must be
removed or shown and approved on an amended site plan. No other violations
were identified.
We have no record of any unresolved zoning violations or pending notices of
zoning violations for the property apart from the issue of the storage containers.
We have no record of any unresolved building code violations or pending notices
of building code violations for the property.
The plat of record in Deed Book 3116, pages 306 — 308 was approved by the
County on April 29, 2005. The plat created a parcel designated as "Out Lot D"
containing 1.213 acres and easements. As a result of this transaction the residue
of the subject property contains 30.986 acres. Out Lot D is now identified as
Parcel 94A1 on Tax Map 45.
It is the policy of this department to purge building permit files after three years.
Copies of Certificates of Occupancy are maintained on microfilm. Therefore, we
have not retained any copies of Certificates of Occupancy associated with this
project. Furthermore, the absence of a Certificate of Occupancy for the project
will not give rise to any enforcement action. Please be aware that interior
renovation that does not involve a change of use does not require a Certificate of
Occupancy. You may obtain a copy of a Certificate of Occupancy for an
additional fee of $25.00 each.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
John Shepherd
Manager of Zoning Administration
