Site Plans Approved 2003 - 2010
Executive Summary Section 15.2-2221 of the Code of Virginia states that local planning commissions shall produce an annual report to the governing body concerning the operation of the commission and the status of planning within the jurisdiction. This document is intended to satisfy that statutory requirement and help provide information on growth and development in Shenandoah County to the Board of Supervisors and the general public. In 2010, Shenandoah County continued to feel impacts of the global economic recession. However, the review of last year’s housing and permitting data has provided an opportunity to become guardedly optimistic about the notion that Shenandoah County has weathered the worst of a market correction that has hopefully solidified a more sustainable level of growth and development in Shenandoah County, and around the Commonwealth. To that end, the Planning Commission reviewed only two site plan requests, six special use permits, numerous text amendments, and no rezoning requests. These numbers are similar to last year’s requests. In addition, no subdivision plats came before the Planning Commission in 2010. The outcomes of these requests heard by the Planning Commission are spelled out in the report along with a history of these types of applications from previous years. Also, there is a summary of staff’s actions concerning administrative plats, building permits, and land disturbance permits, along with a summary of the actions of the Board of Zoning Appeals. Similarly, administrative subdivision requests held nearly steady, and the total number of new residential buildings in the County and towns decreased slightly. The number of new land disturbance permits decreased, but inspections of existing dormant projects continued. In 2010, the County its work with Milton Herd of Herd Planning and Design to conduct a Community Planning Project (CPP) in order to prepare the necessary amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning/Subdivision Ordinances in order to accomplish the vision statement set forth in the current Comprehensive Plan. This significant achievement is intended to preserve the rural areas of the County, while directing growth to its towns and public service areas. In addition, a comprehensive three-tiered wind energy ordinance was adopted in 2010. The Planning Commission is faced with the challenge of meeting the demands of its constituency in the midst of a constantly changing political and economic climate. Furthermore, it recognizes that over the course of the upcoming 2011 calendar year, priorities are bound to shift. However, this document sets forth a flexible list of goals to be pursued with diligence, haste, and careful deliberation, above and beyond the Commission’s ministerial duties and unsolicited discretionary requests. 2010 Initiatives: I. II. III. IV. V. VI. VII. VIII. IX. X. Review House Location Survey legislation as requested by the BZA. Continue to pursue the joint adoption of Urban Growth Areas in concert with the Towns, including Land Use Maps for the Maurertown-Toms Brook area and Basye-Bryce area. Review and recommend implementation of a stormwater management ordinance mandated by the State. Review the implementation of the 2007 Old Valley Pike Corridor Overlay District. Develop ordinances that take into consideration mixed-use traditional style development. Monitor the regional commission’s work on the upcoming regional drought plan. Continue to support the Conservation Easement Authority’s development of a conservation easement donation program, and study ways to fund a PDR program. Assess the appropriateness of the existing telecommunications tower ordinance. Study the effectiveness and feasibility of enacting a sinkhole ordinance. Study battlefield overlay districts. Agricultural & Forestal Districts In 2010, the Woodstock East Agricultural and Forestal District (466.910 acres) was renewed for another ten year term. Several new parcels were added, and several were removed, resulting in a net loss of 59.476 acres. Since no individual requests for removal or withdrawal from other districts were considered during the 2010 calendar year, the overall County acreage in Agricultural and Forestal Districts at the end of 2010 was reduced by an equivalent amount for a remaining total of 41,332.716 acres. Shenandoah County remains a top Agricultural and Forestal District participant in the State of Virginia. The spreadsheet below shows the individual additions and withdrawals since 2002, and the following page indicates total acreage, year of establishment, and renewal dates for each district.

Building permits are required for new dwellings, additions, accessory buildings, electrical and plumbing work, heating and air conditioning, commercial projects, and other projects. The following analysis focuses on new dwellings only. Certificates of Occupancy are issued on new residential dwellings that are completed during the year and are given final inspection approval (completions). The New Residential Buildings category shown below takes into consideration only permits issued in 2010 for new structures, regardless of whether a certificate of occupancy has been issued. These numbers often do not match because dwellings started in the year aren’t always finished the same year. The following chart depicts both numbers for each month in 2010. 2010 Housing Additions Month Residential Dwelling Additions (Permits Issued subtracting Demolitions) Residential Certificates of Occupancy (Completions) January 4 13 February 10 3 March 6 2 April 9 9 May 12 4 June 9 19 July 8 3 August 7 8 September 3 21 October 7 10 November 5 9 December 3 13 2010 Total 83 114 As the chart indicates, more homes were completed in 2010 than were started.

The state and local codes require all developments that involve more than 10,000 square feet of land disturbance to have an approved land disturbance permit before excavating begins. To obtain a land disturbance permit, an Erosion & Sediment Control plan must be designed by an engineer and approved by the local program administrator. E&S plans in Shenandoah County are reviewed by a contract reviewer (Racey Engineering) and inspections are conducted by County staff to ensure compliance with the plan. Shenandoah County requires E&S bonds and as-built plans. The E&S program extends to all of the towns in Shenandoah County except Woodstock, which operates its own program. The following chart shows the major projects permitted in 2010.

Rezonings require a joint public hearing and a recommendation from the Planning Commission, with final approval determined by the Board of Supervisors. Rezonings are a legislative decision, which means the Board may exercise discretion when making its decision. No rezonings were considered in 2010.

Special Use Permits The Zoning Ordinance contains a list of uses allowed in each zoning district by-right and by special use permit. Special Use Permits require a joint public hearing and a recommendation from the Planning Commission, with final approval determined by the Board of Supervisors. The BOS can impose conditions on the Special Use Permit as long as they bear a reasonable relationship to the legitimate land use concerns and problems generated by the proposed use of the property. Special Use Permits are a legislative decision, which means the Board may exercise discretion when making its decision. In 2010, there were six Special Use Permits approved, and none were denied.

Subdivision Plat Shenandoah County requires preliminary and final subdivision plat approval in order to subdivide land (the PC makes a recommendation to the BOS on both). The final subdivision plat is recorded at the Clerk’s Office and legally divides a parcel. Subdivisions are a ministerial approval, which means that if all of the applicable codes are met, the Board must approve the plat. Shenandoah County also allows one-lot divisions, family subdivisions, and cluster divisions that are approved administratively by staff. In 2010, there were no subdivision applications requiring Board approval. All subdivisions were administratively reviewed by the Planning & Zoning staff. Staff approved 23 one-lot subdivisions, 13 family subdivisions, and 7 Ag & Forestal divisions. The total number of developable lots created in 2010 in the unincorporated areas of the county was 36. Administrative plats create a maximum of one new lot. Boundary line adjustments move or adjust internal property lines between contiguous parcels but cannot create any additional parcels. Family subdivisions create new lots for an immediate family member. The person subdividing the lot has to have owned the property for five years and the person receiving the lot has to retain the lot for an additional five years. A family subdivision affidavit is required, and is recorded with the plat. Agriculture and Forestal plats allow the division of land to be used for agriculture or forestal purposes only. An Ag and Forestal Affidavit is required by Shenandoah County, and it is recorded with the plat. In addition, language is placed on the plat indicating that the lot is for ag and forestal purposes only, not for development. The Office of Planning and Zoning performed administrative divisions and boundary line adjustments at levels consistent with historical trends. The chart on the following page shows the plats approved by staff from 2003-2010.

The Board of Zoning Appeals is a five member board of citizens appointed by the Circuit Court. The Board hears appeals of decisions made by the Zoning Administrator and variance requests from the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. All appeals and variance requests require a public hearing. Variance and appeal requests are discretionary decisions; although case law does provide guidance as to what the courts consider a hardship (which is required for a variance approval). In 2010, the Board of Zoning Appeals heard eight variance requests. Of the eight requests, all were approved and none were denied. The chart below shows the actions taken on variance requests by the Board of Zoning Appeals in 2010.

Text amendments are a legislative decision, which means the Board has discretion in making its decision, although some text amendments are required by changes in the Code of Virginia.

Approved Zoning Permits According to Section 165-104 of the Shenandoah County Zoning Ordinance, “A zoning permit is required for any change of the use of land or building or the construction of a new building or the reconstruction, enlargement or alteration of an existing building, except that fences driveways, sidewalks, roof coverings, siding, shutters, doors, gutters and downspouts, interior remodeling, interior and exterior painting, uncovered steps, and uncovered handicapped ramps shall not require permits.” Zoning permits are ministerial decisions, and are approved administratively by staff. 2010 permit data, as represented in the chart on the following page, shows an increase in residential addition activity, as well as in accessory structures. However, permitted farm structures decreased significantly. New residential permits held steady, and commercial/industrial permits returned to historically average levels after last year’s spike.
