PUBLIC HEARING
1. Public Hearing: Case R-22-008; Robert and Barbie Eanes; Rezoning from RC-1,
Residential Combined Subdivision District, to A-1, Agricultural District (Waters)
Mr. Haymore opened the public hearing at 7:03 p.m. Mrs. Ragsdale, Director of Community
Development, reported that Robert & Barbie Eanes petitioned to rezone 7.41 acres located on State
Road 718/Snakepath Road in the Chatham-Blairs Election District from RC-1, Residential
Combined Subdivision District to A-1, Agricultural District to allow for two dwellings to be placed
on the property. Barbie Eanes was present to represent the petition. Mrs. Eanes stated that they
were not rezoning for a mobile home park, they were rezoning to A-1 to allow for two residences
on the property. She also stated they had originally planned to build their personal home there but
have since purchased another home, so they are looking at other alternatives for this property. The
Board did not have any questions for Mrs. Eanes. First up to speak was Brian Loeb. He stated that
he was opposed to anything that will allow a mobile home now or in the future to be allowed in
the neighborhood. He suggested dividing the land into two properties rather than rezoning. Mr.
Waters asked if there were currently any mobile homes in the area. Mr. Loeb stated there is one
down the road that has been there for several years. Mr. Waters asked if there were any
doublewides in the area. Mr. Loeb said there is one about three quarters of a mile from the property.
Mr. Waters asked Mrs. Ragsdale if the property could be subdivided. Mrs. Ragsdale informed the
Board that the property does not have enough road frontage to be subdivided into two lots. Mr.
Horne asked if under A-1 if there is a limit to mobile homes that can be placed on the property.
Mrs. Ragsdale stated that A-1 allows for two dwellings - they can be stick built homes, modular
homes, single-wide and double wide homes. She stated the property is currently zoned RC-1 which
allows for one dwelling that can be stick-built, modular, single-wide or double-wide manufactured
homes. Mr. Horne asked if under A-1 if it could ever be more than two. Mrs. Ragsdale stated that
there can only be two. Mr. Waters asked if since it is currently zoned RC -1, could put a
manufactured home there now with no rezoning or special use permit. Mrs. Ragsdale said that is
correct, they would only need a building permit. Next to speak was Robin Loeb. She stated that
she was told by the applicants that they intended to put a mobile home park on the property and
that being the case since the property is 7 acres that she thinks it can handle more than two
dwellings. Mr. Waters stated that Mrs. Ragsdale has already said that no more than two dwellings
can be placed on the property under A-1 zoning. Mrs. Ragsdale stated that A-1 and C-1 are the
only two zoning districts that allow for two single family dwellings on the property. She also said
that the only zoning designation that allows for more than two dwelling would be Residential Multi
Family District or Residential Manufactured Housing Park. Mrs. Ragsdale stated that either of
these zoning designations would not be consistent with the comprehensive plan, which designates
this property as Agricultural and Rural residential, so she would not recommend that the property
ever be rezoned to Residential Manufactured Housing Park as it would be considered illegal spot
zoning. Denise Williams was next to speak. She is responsible for two parcels of land adjacent to
this property. She stated that she is concerned with uses listed under A-1 zoning, what is allowed
and what is not. She stated that one concern is the multi dwelling because there are neighbors just
in front of them. She also stated that the land had mobile homes on it prior and the dwellings were
allowed to significantly depreciate and lower property values. She stated that they were eyesores
7.1.a
Packet Pg. 6 Attachment: 05_03_2022 Minutes nw (3187 : PC Minutes 05_03_2022)
for the neighborhood, so something like that is a huge concern for her. Next to speak was Ted
Kessler, stating that he has one of the largest frontages to this property and is concerned about
what or may not happen, He stated that he has learned that if you own a piece of property that you
can only put one dwelling on, you can come up here and ask for it to be changed and to him, this
does not seem exactly right, but he is not making a decision, he is just disputing the case that
concerns him since it is in his backyard. He also stated that he did not get a letter regarding the
case, he heard it from neighbors. Mr. Waters asked Mrs. Ragsdale if there was any issue because
he did not receive his letter before the meeting. Mrs. Ragsdale said that she had the receipt where
the letter was sent out and suggested that he should follow up with the post office about not
receiving it. Mrs. Mease asked the certified letter had to be signed for by the recipient to show it
has been received. Mrs. Ragsdale said that all rezoning notifications are sent out certified as
required by state law. Mr. Haymore closed the public hearing at 7:18 p.m. Mr. Waters thanked
everyone for coming out to speak on behalf of this case. He has spoken with Mrs. Eanes and Mrs.
Ragsdale to get clarification on what is planned. He stated that nothing was immediately planned
but that they were just seeking to rezone at this time. He said that Mrs. Ragsdale had assured him
that there will not be a mobile home park on this property. A motion was made by Mr. Waters,
seconded by Mrs. Mease, to recommend the Board of Supervisors grant the rezoning request.
Motion passed by seven (7) to zero (0) vote.

District, to allow for an accessory building to be placed on the property for his personal use. Ronnie
Warren was present to represent the petition. There was no opposition to the petition. Mr. Haymore
closed the public hearing at 7:22 p.m. A motion was made by Mr. Oakes, seconded by Mr. Dalton,

was present to represent the petition. Mr. Horne asked what agricultural uses it would be used for.
Mr. Mceowen said they would like to fence in some of the property to have the appropriate horse
acreage ratio to keep their land in good shape. There was no opposition to the petition. Mr.
Haymore closed the public hearing at 7:25 p.m. A motion was made by Mrs. Henderson, seconded

22-013 Nguyen
Properties, LLC
District: Tunstall District Election District
Zoning Request: RC-1 to MHP
Agenda Date: June 07, 2022
Meeting History:
SUBJECT
Requested by Nguyen Properties, LLC, as the contract purchaser, to rezone property located on
State Road 1058/Oakwood Drive, in the Tunstall Election District and shown on the Tax Maps
as GPIN # 1368-26-8391. The applicants are requesting to rezone 6.25 acres, from RC-1,
Residential Combined Subdivision District, to MHP, Residential Manufactured Housing Park
District, to allow for a mobile housing park on the property.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Nguyen Properties, LLC, contract purchaser, is requesting to rezone a total of 6.25 acres from
RC-1, Residential Combined Subdivision District, to MHP, Residential Manufactured Housing
Park District, to allow for the expansion of a current legal non-conforming use. When Zoning
was adopted in 1991, multiple mobile homes were located on the property. Because a zoning
classification of RC-1 was assigned, the mobile homes became a legal nonconforming use.
According to Pittsylvania County Code § 35-164, non-conforming uses cannot be expanded or
enlarged unless they can be brought into compliance. In order to bring this property into
compliance, the property would need to be rezoned to MHP. Additionally, Pittsylvania County
Code § 35-164 states that any activity, use or structure that is discontinued for more than two (2)
years, it shall be deemed abandoned and must conform to the regulations of the current
regulations; therefore, any lots that have not been occupied for more than two (2) years have lost
the right to be occupied, further reducing the number of lots within the legal non-conforming
park.
The applicant has a contract to purchase the property with the intentions to resume the use as a
mobile home park. In 1998, an application to rezone the property was submitted and ultimately
denied due to opposition from the neighboring property owners.
Once the property is rezoned to MHP, all uses listed under Section 35-317 are a permitted
use. The property would also be subject to Pittsylvania County Code Chapter 28
Manufactured Housing Park.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends DENIAL of Case R-22-013, submitted by Nguyen Properties, LLC,
requesting to rezone a total of 6.25 acres located State Road 1058/Oakwood Drive, in the
Tunstall Election District and shown on the Tax Map as GPIN# 1368-26-8391, from RC-1,
Residential Combined Subdivision District, to MHP, Residential Manufactured Housing Park
District, to allow for a mobile housing park on the property. The subject property is not adjacent
to any other properties currently zoned MHP, Residential Manufactured Housing Park District
and while the rezoning would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Staff has received
multiple concerns and objections from adjacent property owners. Additionally, the entrance to
this property would need to be upgraded to a commercial entrance. VDOT does not feel that the
site distance requirements can be met, and therefore they would not approve a commercial
entrance at this location.

1. Recommend approval of Case R-22-013 as submitted.

Case: Public Hearing: Case R-
22-016 Jasmin Ruiz
District: Callands-Gretna Election District
Zoning Request: B-2 to R-1
Agenda Date: June 07, 2022
Meeting History:
SUBJECT
Requested by Jasmin Ruiz, to rezone property located on State Road 799/Climax Road, in the
Callands-Gretna Election District and shown on the Tax Maps as GPIN #s 1498-33-4405, 1498-
33-3555, and 1498-33-2683. The applicant is requesting to rezone a total of 2.16 acres, from B-2,
Business District, General, to R-1, Residential Suburban Subdivision District, to allow the
property to be used as a single-family dwelling.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Jasmin Ruiz is requesting to rezone a total of 2.16 acres from B-2, Business District General, to
R-1, Residential Suburban Subdivision District, to allow the property to be used as a single-
family dwelling.
The property was originally zoned R-1, and the building was constructed as a single-family
dwelling but was rezoned to B-2, Business District, General, and converted to a day care facility
in 2013. Pittsylvania County Code § 35-365 only allows for residential uses to be located on a
property with an active business. The business on the property was discontinued prior to the
property being purchased by the applicant.
On February 25, 2022, the Code Official for Pittsylvania County sent a letter to the property
owner notifying her that a Building Permit was required to set the two accessory structures that
had been placed on her property. When the applicant came into the office to obtain a building
permit, such permit could not be issued because the buildings had been placed over property
lines. Additionally, the applicant was also notified at the time that the property was zoned B-2,
Business District, General and could not be used as a single-family dwelling. The applicant is
requesting to rezone the subject property from B-2, Business District, General, to R-1,
Residential Suburban Subdivision District, to allow the structure to be occupied as a single-
family dwelling. If the rezoning is approved, the property will need to be resurveyed in order to
consolidate the three (3) subject properties. Once that is recorded, a building permit can be

22-017 Bradley and
Heather Barron
District: Callands-Gretna Election District
Zoning Request: RE to A-1
Agenda Date: June 07, 2022
Meeting History:
SUBJECT
Requested by Bradley and Heather Barron, to rezone property located on Atlantic Timber Lane,
in the Callands-Gretna Election District and shown on the Tax Maps as GPIN #s 1580-15-0109,
1580-05-8478, and 1580-05-7851. The applicants are requesting to rezone a total of 23.81 acres,
from RE, Residential Estates District, to A-1, Agricultural District, to allow for the placement of
an accessory structure and a Class B Home Occupation.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
While conducting an inspection relating to a Building Permit issued to install a 100-amp
subpanel for an accessory structure, the Building Inspector noticed additional HVAC and
plumbing work had been completed without the necessary permits or inspections and that the
building had been placed in the front yard. Because the building had been placed in the front
yard, violating Pittsylvania County Code § 35-74 (2)(b) which states “no detached accessory
building may be located in the front yard of a lot” in residential districts. The property is
currently zoned RC-1, therefore, requiring the building to be placed in the side or rear yard. The
applicants are requesting to rezone the subject property from RC-1, Residential Combined
Subdivision District, to A-1, Agricultural District, to allow the accessory structure to remain in
the current location. If the rezoning is approved, the structure would meet the required front yard
setback and would be allowed to remain.
When the property owners were contacted regarding the additional work completed without the
necessary permits, they stated that the building would be used as part of their Home Occupation.
The applicants currently breed both dogs and cats. While Pittsylvania County Code exempts
kennels that are operating as an accessory to a single-family dwelling from the definition of a
Commercial Kennel, therefore, treating that use as a Home Occupation, Pittsylvania County
Code § 35-268 requires a Special Use Permit for a Class B Home Occupation. The Zoning
Ordinance defines a Class B Home Occupation as “an occupation conducted in a dwelling unity
for profit, with or without the use of one or more accessory structures.” If the property is
rezoned, the accessory structure could remain, and the Class B Home Occupation would be
9.3
Packet Pg. 49
permitted by right. At that time, a building permit could be issued, bringing this structure into
compliance.
Once the properties are rezoned to A-1, all uses listed under Section 35-178 are a permitted
use.
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
The Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use as Agricultural and Rural Residential.
ZONING AND CURRENT USE OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
Adjacent to properties zoned A-1, Agricultural District and RE, Residential Estates District

Meeting History:
SUBJECT
Requested by Robert and Angela Carlberg, to rezone property located on Reservoir View Drive,
in the Staunton River Election District and shown on the Tax Maps as GPIN # 1593-88-9579.
The applicants are requesting to rezone a total of 10.41 acres, from R-1, Residential Suburban
Subdivision District, to A-1, Agricultural District, to allow for the placement of an accessory
structure.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Robert & Angela Carlberg are requesting to rezone a total of 10.41 acres from R-1, Residential
Suburban Subdivision District, to A-1, Agricultural District, to allow for the placement of an
accessory building in the front yard.
Pittsylvania County Code § 35-74 (2)(b) states “no detached accessory building may be located
in the front yard of a lot” in residential districts. The property is currently zoned R-1, therefore,
requiring the building to be placed in the side or rear yard. Based on the location of the
applicants’ dwelling, an accessory structure could not be placed on the property and meet both
the location requirements and the required setbacks. If the rezoning is approved, the structure
would meet the required front yard setback. If the rezoning is denied, a Variance would need to
be issued to allow the placement of an accessory structure. Staff feels that this issue is best
resolved through a rezoning process.
Once the property is rezoned to A-1, all uses listed under Section 35-178 are a permitted
use.
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
The Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use as Medium to High Density Residential.
ZONING AND CURRENT USE OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES

Zoning Request: SUP
Agenda Date: June 07, 2022
Meeting History:
SUBJECT
Requested by Mark Blanchet, for a Special Use Permit for a campground in accordance with
Pittsylvania County Code § 35-179. The property is a total of 19.76 acres, located on State Road
58/Martinsville Highway, in the Tunstall Election District and shown on the Tax Maps as GPIN
#s 1339-96-3346, 1339-85-8747, 1339-85-7611, and 1339-95-0733.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Mark Blanchet is requesting a Special Use Permit to operate a campground on the subject
properties. The properties were previously occupied by a legal nonconforming mobile home
park. Community Development was notified that campers were being placed on the property,
violating Pittsylvania County Code §35-86 that requires campers to be located within an
approved campground. Prior to Staff being able to cite the property owner, Mr. Blanchett
contacted the Community Development office as the new property owner, inquiring about
expanding the number campsites. Once the violation was brought to his attention, he submitted
this application to rezone the property to A-1 in preparation for applying for a Special Use
Permit to operate a campground in accordance with PCC § 35-179. The rezoning was approved
on April 19, 2022 by the Board of Supervisors. If the Special Use Permit is granted, a permit
will still need to be issued by the Virginia Department of Health before the property could be
used as a campground.
FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION
The Comprehensive Plan designates the future land use as Agricultural and Rural Residential.
ZONING OF SURROUNDING PROPERTIES
Mostly surrounded by properties zoned RC-1, Residential Combined Subdivision District, A-1,
Agricultural District, and R-1, Residential Suburban Subdivision District.

SUBJECT
Requested by Donna Clay for a Special Use Permit for a Public Garage. The property 5.5 acres,
located on State Road 1246/Evangel Drive, in the Dan River Election District and shown on the
Tap Map as GPIN # 2346-54-4290.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
On April 25, 2022, Community Development staff issued a violation letter to Donna Clay for the
number of inoperable vehicles on the property. When Mr. Clay contacted the Community
Development Office, he mentioned that he was operating a public garage on the subject property.
The subject property is currently zoned R-1, Residential Suburban Subdivision District. Under
Pittsylvania County Code § 35-223, a Special Use Permit is required for public garages under the
R-1 zoning classification. The applicant stated that the garage was not in operation prior to the

STAFF SUMMARY
Case: Public Hearing: Case V-
22-001 Tynesha
Breedlove
District: Westover District Election District
Zoning Request: Variance
Agenda Date: June 07, 2022
Meeting History:
BACKGROUND:
Requested by Tynesha Breedlove, for a Variance to Section 35-226. MINIMUM YARD
DIMENSIONS. (A.) Front Setback, Setback from the nearest point on house or principal
structure (including porches or stoops or any accessory building) shall be thirty-five (35) feet
from the edge of right-of-way. The property is located on State Road 1555/Fox Trail Road, in the
Westover Election District and shown on the Tax Map as GPIN# 2309-11-4940.
DISCUSSION:
The subject property is currently zoned R-1, Residential Suburban Subdivision District. The
Pittsylvania County Code § 35-226 MINIMUM YARD DIMENSIONS. (A.) Front Setback,
states “Setback from the nearest point on house or principal structure (including porches or
stoops or any accessory building) shall be thirty-five (35) feet from the edge of right of way.”
The majority of the property falls within the floodplain as determined by FEMA. Regulations in
the Uniform Statewide Building Code (“USBC”) and Pittsylvania County Code, Chapter 23,
Flood Plain Management, require the dwelling to be constructed outside of the Floodplain.
Additionally, Virginia Department of Environmental Health regulations regarding the placement
of the septic system and associated drain fields and the setback requirements set forth in Virginia
State Regulations further restrict where the structure can be placed. Due to the various
regulations that must be met and the size and shape of the portion of the lot that is out of the
floodplain, the applicant is requesting a variance of eleven (11) feet from the required thirty-five
(35) foot setback.
CRITERA ANALYSIS
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, general or special, a variance shall be granted if the
evidence shows that the strict application of the terms of the ordinance would unreasonably
restrict the utilization of the property or that the granting of the variance would alleviate a
hardship due to a physical condition relating to the property or improvements thereon at the
time of the effective date of the ordinance, or alleviate a hardship by granting a reasonable
modification to a property or improvements thereon requested by, or on behalf of, a person with
a disability,
11.1
Packet Pg. 120
1. The property interest for which the variance is being requested was acquired in
good faith and any hardship was not created by the applicant for the variance;
The hardship claimed by the applicant is due to the size and shape of the property and the
vast percentage that falls within the floodplain. The property is narrow and almost three
(3) quarters of the it falls within the floodplain. Soil work conducted dictated when the
septic system had to be located, further restricting where the dwelling could be placed.
Therefore, this application does meet this criterion.
2. The granting of the variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent
property and nearby properties in the proximity of that geographical area;
The properties in this area are residential and the variance of eleven (11) feet would not
negatively impact adjacent property owners or impact site distances for traffic on this low
volume roadway. Therefore, this application does meet this criterion.
3. The condition or situation of the property concerned is not of so general or
recurring a nature as to make reasonably practicable the formulation of a general
regulation to be adopted as an amendment to the ordinance;
Generally, properties that share this zoning classification can meet the required setbacks.
This property cannot due to the percentage of the property within the floodplain. Most
properties with this zoning designation are either not adjacent to a floodplain or are
minimally impacted. Therefore, this application does meet this criterion.
4. The granting of the variance does not result in a use that is not otherwise permitted
on such property or a change in the zoning classification of the property;
The granting of a variance does not change the zoning classification or allow for a use
that is not otherwise permitted. Therefore, this application does meet this criterion.
5. The relief or remedy sought by the variance application is not available through a
special exception process that is authorized in the ordinance pursuant to subdivision
6 of § 15.2-2309 or the process for modification of a zoning ordinance pursuant to
subdivision A 4 of § 15.2-2286 at the time of the filing of the variance application.
The special exception process does not apply to this situation. An amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance is not needed for this situation as the need for this variance is due to
the narrowness of the subject property and the percentage of the property that falls within
the floodplain. Therefore, this application does meet this criterion.
This variance request meets five (5) of the five (5) criteria needed to grant a variance.
