before the Board of Zoning Appeals to find a topographic condition why the house could not be built anywhere else on the property.

Strittmatter made motion to deny recommendation to the Board of Zoning Appeals on this application, followed by a vote to deny by all members, except Sharp, who abstained from voting since the application would come before him as a BZA member.

Final action taken by the Planning Commission was a special exception request for the Gillis Residential Care Facility on Jackson Lane in Boston, Virginia to expand from a six-room facility to an eight-room facility.

Applicant David F. Gillis explained that when the assisted care facility was originally designed in 1999, it was appropriated and approved for an eight-bedroom facility.

However, he had not wished to utilize the facility to it fullest capacity. Gillis is in the process of selling the facility and said that the purchasers are interested in the expansion.

Gillis responded that the facility has passed annual fire marshal inspections as well as health department and Department of Social Service inspections since its opening.
