Board approves special exception for contractor equipment yard on Boundary Line Lane with permit timing change
Summary
Rockbridge County approved a special exception for Boundary Line Lane LLC to operate a contractor equipment storage yard and associated shop/office in B‑1 zoning, adding a condition requiring a land‑disturbance or building permit to be obtained and posted within 12 months.
The Rockbridge County Board of Supervisors approved a special exception July 27 for Boundary Line Lane LLC to develop a contractor equipment storage yard and associated shop/office in a B‑1 zoning district on Route 11. Planning staff described the application, identified the tax parcel numbers, and recited planning‑commission conditions tied to site‑plan compliance and required agency approvals; the planning commission recommended approval with conditions.
Applicant Walter Garrett described a plan with retail/hardscape frontage toward Route 11 and truck/trailer storage behind the retail area. During board discussion, a supervisor proposed changing the implementation condition to require that the applicant obtain and post a land‑disturbance activity or building permit within 12 months (a more precise trigger than “implemented within 12 months”); Garrett concurred. The board approved the special exception with that revised condition; required approvals from the county building department, erosion/sediment control/stormwater management, the public service authority and VDOT remain prerequisites for construction.
