Campbell County Board of Adjustments: 2/4/25

Show Details

The Campbell County Board of Adjustments met to review zoning requests, including a conditional use permit application for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) at 1951 Upper Tug Fork Road. The applicant, Jacob Thomas, sought approval to convert part of a historic barn into a secondary living space for family members while maintaining the structure’s original character. The board reviewed zoning requirements and determined that the proposal met the necessary conditions, including size limitations and shared access with the primary residence. A key point of discussion was the requirement for a paved driveway apron, which county regulations mandate for ADUs to prevent gravel from spilling onto public roads. The applicant requested a waiver, citing financial considerations and the lack of similar paving requirements for surrounding properties. After debate among board members, the waiver was granted, with the rationale that the driveway's flat terrain minimized the risk of gravel migration onto the roadway. The board approved the conditional use permit with the stipulation that the ADU would not be used for commercial purposes or as a short-term rental. The meeting adjourned after confirming the schedule for upcoming cases. Disclaimer: This summary was generated using AI and may not capture all meeting nuances or discussions.
