Jefferson County, West Virginia Board of Zoning Appeals meeting, September 24, 2026. The board approved the August 27 minutes and considered zoning variances; no government procurement, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified. It unanimously approved a variance for a 30-by-30-foot detached garage at 592 Bedford Drive, allowing it in the front yard and reducing the setback from 25 feet to 13 feet. The transcript also describes a request for a 24-by-28-foot garage at 18522 Charlestown Road, reducing the setback from 25 feet to 18 feet, but does not capture a clear decision on that item.

The board approved River and Trail Outfitters’ variance to reduce the minimum campground acreage from 10 acres to 1.92 acres, allowing eight campsites. It also approved a variance for a 24-by-25-foot garage at 80 Valmont Lane, reducing the setback from 20 feet to 5 feet; the motion stipulated that the applicant is bound by his testimony, including his stated garage-door orientation. Staff reported that a Sports Plex athletic field complex text amendment had advanced at the Planning Commission and that a revised solar tax amendment draft was scheduled for further review; neither was a procurement action.
