MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT:. Stonewall PROPERTY ID NUMBER: 32-A-77 PROPERTY ZONING & USE: Zoned RA (Rural Areas) District; Land use - Residential ADJOINING PROPERTY ZONING & USE: Zoned RA (Rural Areas); Uses: Residential and Vacant VARIANCE: The applicant is requesting a 3.92-acre variance to the minimum lot size requirement in a rural area. This would enable a boundary line adjustment between two parcels. REASON FOR VARIANCE: Exceptional narrowness, size and shape of lot; no use for back two lots and no road access (land -locked- right of passage.) STAFF COMMENTS: In the RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District, the minimum lot size for a new traditional lot is 5.6 acres. The applicant proposes to perform a boundary line adjustment whereby 4.173 acres of her 5.253-acre parcel will be sold to an adjoining land owner, leaving a 1.08-acre parent parcel. Due to the five -acre minimum lot size, a variance of 3.92 acres is being requested. The subject parcel is of usual shape. The nine -sided lot narrows to less than 10 feet at one point, creating a triangular -shaped area which contains the single family dwelling. It is the triangular portion consisting of 1.08 acres that the applicant wishes to retain. The parcels surrounding the subject property range in size from approximately 1.5 acres to over 5.0 acres. Although the proposed boundary line adjustment does not adversely affect adjoining property owners, no hardship is evident. The current configuration of the lot, albeit unsual, does not present a hardship to the owner. The inability to reduce the size of the parcel does not prevent the reasonable use of the land for residential purposes. Alice Stendeback Variance Page 2 July 10, 2000 STAFF CONCLUSION: The Code of Virginia, Section 15.2-2309(2) states that no variance shall be authorized by the board unless it finds that a) strict application of the Ordinance would produce an undue hardship approaching confiscation; b) that such hardship is not shared generally by other properties in the same zoning district and the same vicinity, and; c) that the authorization of such variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and that the character of the district will not be changed by the granting of the variance. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance does not satisfy the aforementioned criteria. Indeed, the subject property, is of unsual shape. However, a strict application of the requirements of the zoning ordinance does not produce a hardship approaching confiscation of the property. As was previously noted, the use of the parcel for residential uses is not compromised by the inability to perform the desired boundary line adjustment. 0:Wgendas\6ZA\S1aff ReporMtendeback.wpd 0 Briarw00d Dr 4 Driv 0 4 C�a Grimes RIGGLEMAN N \, S C LEM T� w �•• TTS "`a"'"" ATHEY AI K E N � C .
