RE: SP-99-76 Starlight Farm Bridge, Tax Map 99, Parcel 61
Dear Mr. Coggin:
The Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, at its meeting on March 15, 2000, unanimously
approved the above-noted request for a bridge crossing for farm/agricultural purposes on
Starlight Farm. Please note that this approval is subject to the following conditions:
I. The bridge is for agricultural purposes only, and shall not serve as access for any
residential development, nor shall it serve through traffic between Route 760 and Route
813. The road on at least one side of the bridge shall remain chained or gated with a lock
at all times;
2. The applicant shall stabilize the bare ground along the entire roadway that this bridge
serves by vegetating the area as soon as possible, but no later than June 1, 2000, This
work will be bonded as required by the Engineering Department;
), No modification to the bridge or roadway within the flood plain may be started until a
determination has been made by Engineering that the modification would not impair the
stream's ability to convey the 1 OO-year flood. This requirement does not include routine
maintenance such as regrading the roadway surface, cleaning roadway ditches, or
replacement of damaged bridge members;
4. Should the bridge need repair or modification in the future, the applicant will notify the
County Engineer and consult on any proposed work. No disturbance is allowed within
the stream, except for removing debris, and any other disturbance in the immediate
stream buffer is limited to that work necessary to restore the bridge to its current level of
operation;
5. The applicant shall submit, and have approved by the Engineering Department, a stream
buffer mitigation plan that will provide consistency with Section 17,317 of the Albemarle
County Code, Upon approval of the stream buffer mitigation plan, the applicant shall
implement the mitigation measures in the plan without delay and no later than
June 1, 2000. This work will be bonded as required by the Engineering Department; and
-
6. Within 30 days of the granting of the special use permit, the applicant shall submit a Joint
Permit Application to the Virginia Marine Resources Commission for a permit to disturb
State waters associated with this bridge and shall comply with any requirements related to
a permit issued for this bridge. Applicant shall provide the County's Department of
Engineering and Pubic Works a copy of any permit issued and shall coordinate through
the Department of Engineering and Pubic Works to assure this permit's conditions are
implemented, The special use permit only becomes active when the permit is granted.
In the event that the use, structure or activity for which this special use permit is issued shall not
be commenced within eighteen (18) months after the issuance of such permit, the same shall be
deemed abandoned and the authority granted thereunder shall thereupon terminate. For purposes
of this section, the term "commenced" shall be construed to include the commencement of
construction of any structure necessary to the use of such permit within two (2) years from the
date of the issuance thereof which is thereafter completed within one (1) year.
Before beginning this use, you must obtain a zoning clearance from the Zoning Department.
