1. Once Albemarle County recommends approval or denial of private street request, prepare and submit Road
Plan Application for public road, or private street, at earliest convenience. Link to Road Plan Application: (Rev. 1)
Addressed. Applicant response: `Public street proposed.'

eview Application.pdf
2. Show stormwater management at concept level (Approx. area (size)/location, type facility, if known);
required for preliminary plat approval. Ref 9VAC25-870-65, and 9VAC25-870-66. Also, Albemarle County Code,
Chapter 17, 17-300 thru 17-303, and 17-400 thru 17-408. (Rev. 1) Not addressed. Applicant response:
`Preliminary plat revised per design by Timmons,' but there is no noticeable graphic change that shows conceptual
stormwater design. Plat must show approximate location and type of SWM facility proposed (conceptual). Please
contact engineering plan reviewer directly to provide guidance, or if questions. Also, please see item 3, below.
3. Submit VSMP /WPO Plan Application. The VSMP must be approved and any required ESC or SWM
bonds posted prior to final plat approval. Link to WPO Application: (Rev. 1) Not addressed. Applicant response:
`Will do for final plat.' Engineering recommends WPO plan submittal at earliest convenience. A VSMP /WPO plan
is required. It is a separate submittal, and VSMP-WPO plan approval is required prior to final plat approval. Also,
SWM facilities must be bonded. A SWM Facilities Maintenance Agreement is required. A deed of dedication of
SWM facilities may be recorded with final subdivision plat. Listed items are prerequisite to final plat approval, with
exception of Deed of Dedication (and SWM facilities easement plat), which may occur with recordation of final
subdivision plat (also, item 15).

improvements built or bonded prior to final plat approval. (Rev. 1) Addressed.

to clarify. (Rev. 1) Addressed.

slopes may be shown graphically as they are with the revised preliminary plat, but graphic depiction is not required

by code. A note is essential. Request for note re -stated.
Sheet 2
Check Parcel Acreage (shown on Lot 5): should be 18.276 less 0.327 = 17.949 Ac. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
8. SW boundary provides distances to the thousandth decimal (0.001); this is unconventional. Recommend
limit to 0.01 level of accuracy and revise overall distance 1585.76' to match. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
Recommend eliminate bearing, NE boundary of Lot 1. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
10. Recommend list total distance (in parenthesis) of Lots 1, 2, 3 NE boundary bearing S46'01'07"E. (Rev. 1)
Addressed.

Addressed.
12. Acquire sight distance easements (Lot 1, and off -site, TMP # 45-59C) for Rt. 743. Also, please see item
15., below. (Rev. 1) Not (apparently) addressed; perhaps in process. Comment remains.
13. Provide table for four curves (whether boundary or roadway centerline) clustered at top of sheet 2 along
Rte. 743. Label curves C1, C2, etc. so that curves are more readily identifiable. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
14. Label sight distance bearing -distance, all segments. Provide ties for sight distance easement. Recommend
inset detail for sight distance easement. (Rev. 1) Not addressed. Applicant response: `Will be done on final.'

(public/pvt.), sight distance, and Rte. 743 public RW dedication of 0.327 Ac. (Rev. 1) Not addressed. Applicant
response: `Will be done on final.'
16. Label parcel adjacent to TMP #45-59M. This parcel appears just above graphic scale. (Rev. 1)
Addressed.
17. Provide book -page ref. for Existing 35' Pvt. Road Easement. (Rev. 1) Addressed.
18. Lot 2: Recommend revise drain field and/or well location such that proposed drain field grade elevation is
lower than proposed well grade elevation. (Rev. 1) Addressed. Applicant response: `Wells have to be
geometrically 100' from DF's to prevent contamination. They are sleeved.'
19. Revise all steep slopes labels to read `critical slopes.' (Rev. 1) Addressed.
20. Ensure cul-de-sac radius meets Fire -Rescue requirements on Final Plat. (Rev. 1) As follow-up: An
approved road plan showing turnaround with travel surface dimensions is required for final plat approval. Please
submit a Road Plan (separate application) at earliest convenience. Note: Road plan comments on t-style turnaround
may necessitate slight revision to subdivision plat, since turnaround right-of-way line segments AA, AB, AC, AD,
and curve 7 may or may not meet Fire -Rescue needs. Final plat must be consistent with the approved Road Plan.
21. Provide /label culvert for subdivision road /street sag curve, sized to pass a 25-year storm event. Show on
