408 Harris Road Special Exception (PL-26-0030)

Charlottesville

Description

Applicants seek reduced amenity-space requirements to build six townhomes (three duplexes with side-facing garages) on a tight ~8,900-square-foot infill lot next to the Longwood PUD. Staff did not recommend approval because the usable open space sits largely within the city right-of-way.

Impact summary

Approval would add six townhomes consistent with nearby Longwood and Flint Hill development; denial could leave the small parcel unbuildable, illustrating friction points in the new zoning code.
