Good morning, Holly –
Yes, please scan those letters and email them to Joe, so he can upload them to laser fiche. And, yes, since it is so close to the
meeting, please also bring the paper copies of the letters to hand to the Hearing Officer tonight.
Regarding the Findings of Fact, the BZA attorney would write them up only if the short term residential rental petition is denied
at tonight’s meeting. Otherwise, if approved, your findings would be adopted.
Hope this helps. See you tonight,

Good Morning Angie:
I was hoping you could point me to the write up from the BZA Attorney Findings of Fact
that led to the negative consideration of my petition. It would be helpful to see this in
advance of 5:00 p.m. hearing.
I also have a couple of letter of support from adjoiners. Shall I bring those will me? Or
would you like me to scan them in and email them to you?
Sincerely,
Holly Hospel

Good morning, Holly –
I did some research. Article VI, section 6 of the BZA Rules of Procedure states the following: The petitioner shall also serve
notice to the general public by placing a sign per the approval of the Administrator (size and placement) on site of the petition.
The sign shall be placed no less than 20 days (or 10 days, for applications to be heard by a BZA Hearing Officer) prior to the
public hearing and removed no more than three days after. This should clarify things. Thanks,
Angie Conn, AICP

Hi Angie
I am asking for clarification on the sign point one more time. Forgive me, but I have gotten two conflicting
understandings of my obligation.
Because I like to get things done and checked off, I thought I might post the sign as soon as I got it. Then I could
check that box as done. But then I wondered how long I was required to post it to satisfy my obligation. I see
language that states I must post it at least 10 before. But no language on how long the sign must be posted once it is
up.
It seems that 10 days posting is implied but not specified. For example can I post my sign for 10 days starting
tomorrow? Or once it is posted, am I not allowed to remove it until after the hearing?
I apologise for my continuous questions as I navigate all the ins and outs of my obligations to secured the variance.
Sincerely
Holly

Hi, Holly – the public notice sign needs to be erected on your property at least 10 days prior to the public hearing date, and it
needs to stay up that whole time, until at least the morning after the BZA meeting date. Thanks,

Thank you Joe. That clears it up!
Last question. I have read the signage requirements. I note that the signage needs to
be up a minimum of 10 days in advance of the hearing. If I am able to get the sign
created sooner, is there language that specifies the number of days the sign must
be in the yard before it is removed?

Thanks, Joe.
Holly, to clarify, you would need to use the Special Exception application, and not the Hearing Officer application. Page 6 of
that application has the template you can use for the legal ad and for the mailings. Feel free to email us a draft or your public
notice, and we can review it before you send it to the neighbors and to The Current.

Ok, thank you.
One more question; I am required to notify my adjoining neighbors. I have a list of those
neighbors and can send them a letter. I do not see any specified format for this letter. Am I
overlooking something?

Thank you for the clarification. If I understand correctly, I do NOT need to provide
Registered Retail Merchant Certificate (RRMC).
Correct?
