REQUEST: Conditional use planned development to permit exceptions to ordinance
requirements relative to the maximum gross square footage for accessory
buildings in a Residential (R-7) District.
PROPOSED LAND USE:
Expansion of a detached garage is planned. The ordinance requires that the gross
square footage of accessory buildings not exceed the gross square footage of the
primary dwelling on the same lot. With the proposed garage addition, the
accessory buildings would exceed the gross square footage of the primary
dwelling. An exception to this square footage limitation is proposed.
The purpose of this addendum is to advise the Board of the Planning Commission's
recommendation for this case.

PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
THE PLANNING COMMISSION IS SCHEDULED TO HEAR THIS CASE AT THEIR
MEETING ON TUESDAY, .l [_JNE 18, 2013. STAFF WILL ADVISE THE BOARD OF THE
COMMISSION' S ACTION AFTER THEIR MEETING.
RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval for the following reasons:
A. The request properties consist of two (2) contiguous lots (zoning lot) under the
same ownership. As such, the enhanced property acreage, in combination with the
increased setbacks from property boundaries, reduces the impacts of the larger
accessory stricture upon area residential development.
B. The depth of the property affords adequate separation of the accessory stricture
from the primary building so as to achieve a reasonable relationship in scale
between these buildings in a residential setting.

2. The gross square footage for all other accessory strictures on the lot shall not
exceed 322 square feet. (P)

request will have a minimal impact on Fire and EMS.
County Department of Transportation and Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT):

LAND USE
Comprehensive Plan:
The Comprehensive Plan designates the request properties as Suburban Residential II
where residential development (single-family, or condominium uses under certain
circumstances) at a density of 2.0 to 4.0 dwellings per acre is appropriate.
Area Development Trends:
The subject and surrounding properties are zoned Residential (R-7) and are occupied by
single-family residential uses as part of the Riverview Park Subdivision. It is anticipated
that residential uses will continue in the area as recommended by the Plan.
Ordinance Background:
On December 15, 2010 the Board of Supervisors, approved an amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance relative to the size and setbacks for accessory buildings in residential and
certain manufactured home districts. Specifically, this amendment was intended to reduce
the impact of very large accessory strictures on area residential development and to
maintain a relationship in scale with the primary dwelling on the same lot. The resulting
ordinance amendment limited the gross square footage of all accessory buildings on a lot
so as not to exceed that of the primary dwelling, and required additional setbacks for
accessory buildings 1,000 square feet or larger.
Existing Conditions and Proposal:
The request properties are composed of two (2) contiguous lots under the same
ownership that forma 1.1 acre zoning lot. This zoning lot contains a principal dwelling
containing 1,688 gross square feet. A detached garage, located in the rear yard
approximately 150 feet west of the dwelling, contains 1,512 square feet on two (2) floors
(1,080 square feet on the first floor and 432 square feet on the second floor). The property
owners propose aone-story addition, 840 square feet in area, to the northern side of the
detached garage (Attachment 1). The total proposed gross square footage of the detached
garage would be 2,352 square feet, which exceeds the gross square footage of the
principal dwelling by 664 gross square feet.
3 USN0~34-1L`~N2Ei-BC)S-RPT
The existing garage and proposed addition would exceed the increased setbacks from
property lines required for accessory strictures greater than 1,000 gross square feet as
follows:
• Front Yard. eighty (80) feet required/215 feet proposed
• Side Yards. 7.5 feet required/ twenty-five (25) and fifty-three (53) feet proposed
• Rear Yard. twenty-five (25) feet required/ seventy-one (71) feet proposed
Condition 1 would limit the location and size of this addition as depicted in the
attachment.
In addition, two (2) other accessory strictures (sheds) are located on the property, with an
aggregate area of 322 gross square feet. These strictures are proposed to be retained.
Given that the proposed garage addition would exceed the limitation on square footage
for accessory strictures, Condition 2 is recommended to cap any additional
improvements beyond those which currently exist on the property so as not to increase
the overall impact.
CONCLUSION
While the proposed addition to the accessory building exceeds ordinance limitations, the size of
the request property in combination with the increased building setbacks for this stricture from
property boundaries would reduce the impacts of the larger accessory stricture upon area
residential development. Further, given the exceptional depth of the property, the scale between
the garage and the dwelling it serves would continue to be maintained.
Given these considerations, approval of this request is recommended.
CASE HISTORY
Staff (6/5/13):

considered by the Board of Supervisors on June 26, 2013.
The Board of Supervisors, on Wednesday, June 26, 2013, beginning at 6:30 p.m., will take under
