Christopher P.Perez;Senior Planner Department of Community Development(County of Albemarle,Virginia 401 McIntire Road I Charlottesville,VA 22902 434.296.5832 ext.3443 1 Christopher Perez From: Amelia McCulley Sent: Friday, December 05, 2014 1:56 PM To: CDD -Zoning; CDD- Planning; Bill Fritz; Glenn Brooks; Mark Graham; Greg Kamptner Subject: Good news! - previously special exceptions that can now be administrative In an effort to save time with limited resources,the Deputy County Attorney(Greg) and I have re-evaluated what is required to go to the BOS as a special exception versus what we can handle as administrative agent review. It is our opinion that we are enabled to eliminate a fair number of special exceptions that have been going to the Board and can instead handle them administratively. O'': The primary source of authority for site plans is under the State Subdivision Law. VA Code 15.2-2242 (1)allows for variations in or exceptions to the general regulations applicable to subdivision ordinances(see.below).The current site plan regulations allow the agent to act on requests.for variations and exceptionSection 32.x/within the site plan regulations relates to minimum standards for improvements. This includes provisions relating to streets,travelways and parking. Section 32.3.5 allows the agent to consider variations and exceptions fr m any requirement of Section 32.7. .' We are considering removing the site plan regulations from the Zoning Ordinance and placing them in a new chapter, relocating the regulations pertaining to site improvements (such as those for parking in Section 4.12 of the Zoning Ordinance),or at least revising the site plan regulations to better identify the site improvement requirements located outside of Section 32 that may be varied or excepted administratively. This and additional language will further clarify e process in the future. In the interim,for any variations and exceptions to Section 32.7, please process them as -i, •''administrative agent review. If you have questions in a particular case, please contact me or put it on the legal agenda. § 15.2-2242. Optional provisions of a subdivision ordinance. A subdivision ordinance may include: 1. Provisions for variations in or exceptions to the general regulations of the subdivision ordinance in cases of unusual situations or when strict adherence to the general regulations would result in substantial injustice or hardship. 1
