BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION Axton Solar, LLC, is requesting a Special Use Permit to operate a utility scale solar energy facility on sixteen (16) parcels of land located on State Road 612/Medical Center Road, State Road 614/Sandy River Road, State Road 615/Taylor Road, State Road 616/Mosco Road, State Road 934/Maple Springs Drive, and on State Road 954/Plantation Drive, in the Tunstall Election District. The proposed project will cross into Henry County, creating a total project area of 2,393 acres between the two counties. The total project be a 200-megawatt (MW) alternating current (AC) utility scale solar energy facility, connecting to the Appalachian Power grid through an interconnection to the existing 138 kV overhead transmission line. The proposed project requires an on-site collector substation that is shown on the conceptual plan. If the substation is to remain after the project is decommissioned, a separate Special Use Permit will be required. The project site shown on the attached conceptual plan totals approximately 1,756 acres, with approximately 640 of that in Pittsylvania County. The Pittsylvania County Zoning Ordinance requires a site plan and landscape plan to be submitted and approved prior to permits being issued to ensure compliance with setback and vegetative screening requirements. The applicant will also be required to submit an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan and Stormwater Plan to the Community Development Department and 9.a Packet Pg. 9 the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality to ensure that all stormwater and erosion and sediment control regulations are being met. Once the plans are approved, the appropriate bonds will be required before land disturbance permits will be issued. A decommissioning plan is required to be submitted and a bond secured to ensure compliance with the plan at the end of the project’s life as well. All required plans must be approved before any construction permits will be issued. This case was withdrawn during the November 2020 Board of Zoning Appeals meeting due to the required signs identifying the subject parcels not being posted for the length of time specified in the State Code.

Meeting History: SUBJECT Luffman Pyrtle Real Estate, LLC, as Contract Purchaser, petitioned the Planning Commission/Board of Zoning Appeals on October 29, 2020, requesting a Special Use Permit on two (2) parcels of land, a total of 1.47 acres, shown on the Pittsylvania County Tax Maps as GPIN #s 2410-44-7607 and 2410-44-6588, located on U.S. Highway 41/ Franklin Turnpike, in the Westover Election District. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION The subject properties total approximately 1.74 acres and are zoned B-2, General Business District. The applicant, Luffman Pyrtle Real Estate, LLC is requesting a Special Use Permit to operate a kennel in accordance with Pittsylvania County Code § 35-366. The applicants are proposing to use the existing dwelling located on GPIN # 2410-44-6588 as an indoor boarding space for their doggie day camp. All outdoor play will be located on the adjacent parcel, where the applicant currently operates Mount Hermon Animal Clinic. A fenced “run” is proposed to connect Mount Hermon Animal Clinic with the existing dwelling on the subject property. An outdoor area is proposed on the subject property to be used for short, supervised periods of time only. Case S-20-010 was presented to the Planning Commission in August 2020. Neighboring property owners objected to the request based on the noise coming from Mount Hermon Animal Clinic. The Board of Zoning Appeals accepted the applicants’ request to withdraw their application without penalty. A wooden fence has been installed along the property line adjacent to the townhomes to attempt to minimize the sound of barking dogs coming from the property. DIRECTIONS See Map Quest Directions. The properties are located adjacent to 3620 Franklin Turnpike, Danville, VA.
