Board approves conditional‑use permit for a detached accessory family dwelling in District 4
Summary
The Goochland Board granted CU‑20250003 to Andrea L. Smith for a detached accessory family dwelling on 4.6 acres at 831 Broad Street Road, subject to standard conditions including family‑only occupancy and safety measures. The Planning Commission had recommended approval 5–0.
The Goochland County Board of Supervisors voted Nov. 6 to grant Conditional Use Permit CU‑20250003 to Andrea L. Smith to allow a detached accessory family dwelling on a 4.6‑acre parcel at 831 Broad Street Road (tax map 4610260) in District 4.
Planner Ray Cash presented the case and noted the parcel is zoned A‑2 (Agriculture Limited), the proposed unit would be family‑occupied only, and standard conditions were recommended (no separate rental, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, maintained emergency access, notice to the Community Development Department upon transfer). The Planning Commission recommended approval by a 5–0 vote and no one spoke at the Planning Commission public hearing.
The applicant addressed the board and said the dwelling is intended for her daughter and son‑in‑law and that she accepts the proposed conditions. A motion to approve the CUP subject to the conditions passed unanimously.
The CUP is time‑limited to 10 years (expiration Nov. 2035) unless otherwise modified by future board action.
