Re: SDP-2018-00078- WaWa at Pantops Corner — Initial Site Plan
Dear Mr. Reitelbach:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Kimley and Horn, dated
October 19, 2018 and offer the following comments.
Land Use
1. Pantops Corner Way is shown as existing. Currently there are no approved plans for this
street. Will this street be public or private? Comments may change depending on this
determination. This site plan cannot be approved prior to plans for Pantops Corner.
2. Please provide sight distance lines and profile for proposed entrances onto Pantops
Corner Way.
3. Please provide drainage calculations for proposed storm water management structures.
Also please show that the existing drainage structures can adequately handle the
discharge, pre and post construction.
4. Please see appendix F, page F-116, of the Road Design Manual for minimum corner
clearance standards for commercial entrances. Please see figure 4-5 for the appropriate
details. As proposed, the southern entrance doesn't meet the minimum downstream
corner clearance of 225 ft., and an access management exception is required.
5. Please provide Strom Sewer profiles and plot HGL on profiles.
6. Drainage structure on the left side of the southern entrance needs to be tied into the DI.
Please note that the final site plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road Design Manual
Appendices B (1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards, regulations, or other
requirements.
Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further
information is desired, please contact Willis C. Bedsaul at 434-422-9866.
A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right of way. The
owner/developer must contact the Charlottesville Residency land Use Section at (434) 422-9399
for information pertaining to this process.
