Summary
Board administrator Geneva Bogues reported that the March Board of Zoning Appeals approved a replacement 40-by-60 pole building for Big Lou's Auto Parts (to replace a building destroyed by fire) and granted R & R Farms a major mineral extraction special use exception with truck-traffic conditions; both approvals were unanimous.
Geneva Bogues, board administrator, reported to the Planning and Zoning Commission on March actions taken by the Caroline County Board of Zoning Appeals.
Bogues said the Board of Zoning Appeals unanimously approved Big Lou's Auto Parts' request for a special use exception to replace a building destroyed by fire with a pole building (reported in the record as a 40-by-60 pole building) to support an existing nonconforming salvage-yard use. Bogues said that approval will be followed by the applicant's building-permit submittal.
Bogues also reported that the board unanimously approved a special use exception for R & R Farms for a new major mineral extraction facility (listed in the materials as special use exception 24-0026). The board attached conditions focused primarily on truck traffic; Bogues summarized that the conditions reduce front-line setbacks in some wooded areas and included agreed limitations from neighboring property owners who did not object to setback reductions.
Bogues concluded the BZA update by noting that R & R Farms will return to the commission for final site-plan approval as required by the county process.
