REVIEW EVALUATIONS:
Virginia Dept. of Transportation: The application for a conditional use permit for this
property appears to have little measurable impact on Route 1078, the VDOT facility which
would provide access to the property. Existing entrance is adequate for proposed use.
However, should use ever expand in the future, the entrance may have to be upgraded to
VDOT minimum standards.
Inspections Department: No comment or change of use required provided under five
persons are attending training at one time.
Eire Marshal: Portable fire extinguishers and working smoke detectors. Plan approval is
recommended.
Sanitation Authority: No comment.

Planning and Zoning: The Frederick County Zoning Ordinance allows for cottage
occupations in the RP Zoning District. This proposed Conditional Use Permit application is
for a piano school. The proposed school would take place in the applicant's home. A room
of the residence has been dedicated as the piano room. The applicant would like to teach up
to 25 students a week. There were no disapproving agency review comments. Based upon
the limited scale of the proposed use and evaluation of the property, it appears this use would
not have any significant impacts on the adjoining properties.
STAFF CONCLUSIONS FOR THE 2-20-02 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING:
Should the Planning Commission determine that this request is appropriate, staff would suggest the
following conditions:
All review agency comments shall be complied with at all times.
2. No business sign shall be permitted.
Any change of use or expansion of this use will require a new Conditional Use Permit.
PLANNING COMMISSION SUMMARY & ACTION OF 02/20/02 MEETING:
There were no public comments. The applicant was present and stated that she was comfortable with
the conditions as recommended by the staff.
The Planning Commission had no issues of concern regarding this request and believed the use was
appropriate. They voted unanimously to approve the Conditional Use Permit with the conditions as
recommended by staff, as follows:
All review agency comments shall be complied with at all times.
2. No business sign shall be permitted.
3. Any change of use or expansion of this use will require a new Conditional Use Permit.
(Note: Commissioner Rosenberry was absent from this Meeting.)
