RE: SUB201600075/Dunlora V/Variation Request: Landscaping & Screening
Mrs. Ray:
A request for a variation has been received pursuant to Albemarle County Code of Development Chapter 14,
Section 14-203.1. I have completed my review of the requested variation, and provide the following findings:
Sec. 14-203.1 Variations and exceptions.
B. Variation or exception from any requirement of section 14-400 et seq. The agent or the commission may
vary or except any requirement of section 14-400 through 14-441 expressly authorized to be varied or
excepted by the agent or the commission, as the case may be, as provided herein:
1. Request for a variation or exception.
The agent finds that this request for a variation has been made via a complete submittal.
2. Findings required for a variation.
Based on a review of the application materials (Dunlora V—Exception Request Exhibits 1, 2, and 3 and
project narrative dated June 26, 2017, and Revised Exhibit 3 dated July 9, 2017), and based on a site visit
conducted Wednesday, July 12th, the agent finds the following:
The agent finds that the existing tree canopy adjacent to Lots 5 and 6—which is protected as "Preserved
Woods" on"Open Space"—provides effective landscape screening for a portion of the subject
property(s).
The agent also finds that the proposal to shift some landscaping from certain approved sites (adjacent to
the Preserved Woods within the Open Space)to new sites is acceptable, based on the following findings:
