RE: The Four Seasons Apartments
61 Four Seasons Drive
Charlottesville, VA 22901
Tax Map 61X2, Parcel 1
To Whom It May Concern:
We are writing in response to your recent request for a letter from our offices regarding the
zoning classification of that certain real property located in the County of Albemarle,
Virginia, located at 61 Four Seasons Drive, Charlottesville, Virginia and identified as TMP
061X2-00-00-00100 (the "Property") currently owned by Four Seasons Apartments Limited
Partnership.
This letter is to advise you that the Property is located within the PUD, Planned Unit
Development, R-6 zoning district, as well as in the Entrance Corridor and Airport Impact
Overlay districts, designated by the Zoning Ordinance of the County of Albemarle, Virginia
(the "Zoning Ordinance"). The current use is permitted by right in the PUD. Abutting
properties are zoned PUD, R-6 and R-10.
The Four Seasons Apartment development was built under Conditional Use permit (CU) 111
(attached), which served to rezone the property on July 17, 1969 to a Planned Community
with a density not exceeding 390 units in the area designated as "apartment tracts." Our
records indicate that 310 dwelling units were built. Though we have a plan that shows the
development (SDP -136 attached), our files are incomplete and we do not have an approved
site plan. Therefore, the apartments may continue as they exist; however, any change in use
or number of dwelling units would require compliance with the current Albemarle County
Zoning Ordinance.
No variances have been granted for the property.
The apartment complex was built in the 1960s prior to Albemarle County having a building
code, and no Certificates of Occupancy were issued at that time. Subsequent renovations
have been done that have not required Certificates of Occupancy. In 2001 permits were
issued for a swimming pool and pool equipment building but as of this date final inspections
have not been requested so these applications are still active.
We have no record of any unresolved building code violations or pending notices of building
code violations for the property.
The property was inspected for zoning compliance on June 13, 2006. No site plan violations
were identified at that time.
Sincerely,
John Shepherd
Manager of Zoning Administration
