Case S-1, Mary Ann Jones, S-10-006 – Mr. Talbott opened the public hearing at approximately 7:02 p.m. Mrs. Hayes,
Code Compliance Officer/Deputy Zoning Administrator, reported that Mary Ann Jones had petitioned for a Special Use Permit on 1.00 acre, located on Highway 29 Business/North Main Street,
Chatham, VA, in the Banister Election
District (for emergency services, rescue and medical transport). Mary Ann Jones was not present to represent the petition. There was no opposition to the petition. Mr. Talbott closed
the public hearing at approximately 7:04 p.m. The Board discussed the petition as the Committee of the Whole and determined that there were no adverse effects. Upon motion of Mr. Easley,
seconded by Mr. Merricks, the following motion was adopted: Whereas, Mary Ann Jones has petitioned the Board of Zoning Appeals for a Special Use Permit for emergency services, rescue
and medical transport and, Whereas, we find no substantial detriment to adjacent property, that the character of the zoning district will not be changed thereby, and that such use will
be in harmony with the purpose and intent of the Ordinance, I move the Special Use Permit be granted. Motion passed unanimous.
This concludes the Special Use Permit case.
The meeting adjourned at approximately 7:06 p.m.
