JUSTIFICATION FOR REZONING, SPECIAL USE PERMIT WAIVER OR COMP PLAN (15.2-2232) REVIEW REQUESTS Applicant The Planning Commission will study rezoning, special use permit waiver or community plan (15.2-2232) review requests to determine the need and justification for the change in terms of public health, safety, and general welfare. Please answer the following questions as thoroughly as possible. Use additional space if necessary.

Please explain how the request furthers the purposes of the Roanoke County Ordinance as well as the purpose found at the beginning of the applicable zoning district classification in the Zoning Ordinance.

The request is for a special use permit that will allow my colleagues and I to operate a special use facility. The special use facility that we are inquiring is a wedding venue. As well as a wedding venue we will also be hosting business parties and other small functions during our colder months.

Please explain how the project conforms to the general guidelines and policies contained in the Roanoke County Community Plan.

No longer will this residence be a home to few but a beautiful wedding destination to many, providing memories that will last a lifetime. The wedding venue conforms to the Roanoke community plan by ensuring scenic beauty within our blue ridge mountains. The wedding parties traveling from far and wide will come into contact with our gorgeous scenery and may possibly fall in love with this area, ensuring future tourists. These weddings will help promote many different religions from far and wide, showing that Roanoke is an inviting area to all types of people.

Please describe the impact(s) of the request on the property itself, the adjoining properties, and the surrounding area, as well as the impacts on public services and facilities, including water/sewer, roads, schools, parks/recreation and fire and rescue.

The property will experience a high volume of citizens on many given weekends. As neighbors we have reached out to the adjoining properties ensuring that traffic will be limited on Timberview road as well as music will be discontinued after 10pm when the weddings will end (our lovely neighbors on the road have given us support in this endeavor). The venue is sitting on a private well and sewage system. We plan on having two shuttle busses in order to limit traffic on Timberview road so that we can provide safety to our neighbors. Near the venue resides 3 hotels which will allow out of town guests to stay within close proximity to the venue and help Roanoke county economic growth.

Attached is a post to the neighbors indicating our plans for the venue and their support/concerns. 35 members of the road belong to this Facebook group.

Concept plan

Chateau de Laurea

The first three pictures listed are concept plans for the ceremony facility that is located next to the chateau. We will have two bathrooms as well as a catering room and storage on a small part of the ceremony facility.

Next attached to this form is the concept floor plan for the ceremony room located next to the pictures above.

The following is a picture of how traffic flow will occur when people are being shuttled from the Salem park and ride to the venue. The shuttle bus will pull up the driveway (black outlined portion) drop the passengers off and drive around the back next to the wedding chapel and down the hill to another driveway (the dark grey figure drawn). Pictures below also indicate where the pathway is at the back of the chateau.

Next to the Chapple the wedding party will be parked (the green grass along side the hill).

The following pictures is the outside of the chapel showing parking for vendors and the road that will allow the shuttles and vendors to travel without hindering traffic to the main building.

(Parking for the vendors)

The road that will travel alongside the back of the chapel meeting Timberview Road.

Lastly We would like to show a few pictures of the inside of the house
