Proposal
The applicant is requesting conditional use approval to allow a tattoo shop to include body
piercing within an existing shopping center. This use is not specifically enumerated in the Zoning
Ordinance. Approval of a conditional use may be granted for a use not specifically enumerated in
is permitted in the zoning district.
Staff finds the proposed use is similar in characteristics and impact to a beauty shop. Since beauty
shops are permitted in the proposed zoning district, conditional use approval could be granted to
permit the tattoo business (including body piercing).
Tattooing and body piercing are regulated by the State Board of Barbers and Cosmetology laws
found in the Code of Virginia, 1950, as amended, in Title 54.1, Chapter 7. Such use would be
required to comply with all laws regulating the use.
